Chapter 81: Deadly Jaehwang 2
Chapter 81: Deadly Jaehwang 2
-Hm... It’s disappointing but the administration report tied up everything, it’s nothing new. And the officer and... huh? I see... Well isn’t he the guy who won the archery match with the DaeHyeon clan? Didn’t he get a new record of 498 points within the shortest time?!” He shrugged his shoulder and shook his head. He saw Jaehwang’s face and screamed in surprise.
-Right...
-Maybe before this... he seemed to have started the match with Sooji in the training center.
-Hm. It is because of you hunters have been fighting over arrows for some time now. It hasn’t even been a few days and they’ve started to bring everything back but... anyways I have a video of that match. It’s really amazing, you should really watch it.
-Good.
The man replied before he hung up on the call.
Jaehwang went on a different route deliberately to get to where he wanted to go. The Justin point shopping district was the best place to get weapons but if it was bundled up then it would be better for him to find another place. He went to a shop which was one of the three places that sold the best arrows.
“You’re going to use these to hunt the Oaks?” The store owner asked him.
“Of course, ” He replied.
They must have thought Jaehwang was panic buying but of course, he could understand that. He had checked all the information that he had on the Oaks’ invasion as he went everywhere to look for arrows.
“Hm, you don’t look like someone who uses arrows... How do I put this?”
“Yes?” Jaehwang replied to the store employee after he got buried in his thoughts and as if he was about to tell him a secret, he leaned in closer to Jaehwang’s face and whispered,
“There’s not many in stock but we have some arrows.”
Jaehwang’s face lit up. Obviously he was still wearing his hood so he couldn’t see his face but the store employee could see that he was interested.
“How much?”
“I don’t really know the exact amount. I make arrows as a hobby so those are handmade... Do you want to buy them? Don’t keep me waiting...”
“Sure.” Jaehwang shook his head.
He went to the door of the store to prepare the equipment and sent a hand gesture to Jaehwang.
“Over here...”
“Here it is.”
Jaehwang then handed him money from out of his pocket. The market price was about 2,000,000, that sounded too much of a price for an arrow but he needed every good arrow that he could get.
The store employee handed him something out of his pocket and said, “Even though there’s nothing in stock, I can sell you these. You can have them at a discounted price. This should be enough.”
“Thanks, these are great arrows by the way.” Jaehwang gave him the rest of his money and they made their exchange. The store employee’s custom made arrows were incomparable to others that were sold normally.
All of the arrows weren’t the same but its overall quality was great. He gave him a few hundred, some of them were in poor condition but he would just have to avoid using those for as long as he could.
They didn’t fly at first so Jaehwang used the arrows that were in a better condition. He would have to choose the arrows good enough to overcome the 400 pound tension.
He appreciated the store employee’s effort as a lot of the arrows were great shape. He also gave him 50 high-quality arrow strings that he could use.
“I didn’t think I would get these for such a good price.” They were like a prized work of craftsmanship. He shoved all of the arrows in his pocket but some stuck out since it didn’t fit.
The employee then scratched his head and said, “I’m happy to see that you liked them. If you become famous, please don’t forget about me and my store. Haha. And if you like you can come back for more. I have never seen anyone who would use arrows like that.”
They prepared the arrows and made sure everything was ready.
“To be honest, I make my money off of these. It’s good to know that some people still enjoy them.” Jaehwang then shook his head.
He understood what he meant, he was a craftsman before he became a merchant. He gave him the proper compensation for the products and prepared to leave.
“I will come back again.”
“Great, have a good day.”
He left the store and walked quickly to get himself back to his platoon. Although Jaehwang wasn’t their member anymore, he wasn’t planning to let them do this on their own. Someone then yelled, it looked like the voice was trying to tell him something.
“Hey! Your hood!” He looked back and saw that is was that BJ from the last store.
“Huh?”
“It’s urgent. The Oaks seemed to have stopped their march a little while ago.”
“They stopped their march?” Jaehwang replied with a confused tone.
“Yes. It doesn’t mean we can sit back and relax but, It’s important for you to know that they’ve stopped. And there was something else I needed to tell you...”
“What is it?”
“I was a war BJ and this war seems very intense, right? The hunters could go and fight but it could be really dangerous. But, do you want me to help you? I can make you an SNS star. You can earn a lot of money.” Jaehwang stood stared at him without a word so he followed, “It’ll be easy.”
Jaehwang then walked passed him. He wasn’t interested in becoming an SNS star.
“I see... We can half the profits, 5:5. Wait... 6:4!” Jaehwang ignored him and just kept walking. “That’s not all. I left something out... I’ve been a BJ here for the past ten years so I know a lot more...”
Jaehwang paused, he looked at him and said, “What’s the other information.”
“Stop! Stop! This way!”
He walked towards him, he finally got his attention and there, he told them a few bits of information that he knew.
“I was actually considering if I should tell you this but here we are. First, it seems that they’ve grabbed the mercury strand in Justin point but there was no response. So I personally checked to see the Oak troops and I was told that they knew a way to handle them but they are still having a hard time...” He said and Jaehwang was then lost in thought. He then walked away to get back to the platoon but he kept thinking about what the BJ said. Besides, there’s a battle going on so he couldn’t ignore the information that he got.
“What’s happening?” Jaehwang asked. He then grinned and handed him some money.
“What can I do to stop the attack?” Jaehwang said and he shrugged his shoulder.
“As far as I know it’ll be a close match, it’ll be interesting to watch. And I could tell you how...”
“I’m not interested in being an SNS star.”
“Wow, how boring. Do you have any idea how fun it is to be an SNS star? You’ll have lots of female fans...”
“I’m. Not. Interested.”
“Fine... How about we split it 6:4?”
Jaehwang then shook his head as he raised his hand for a handshake.
“I’m BJ Dal Jeon.
“My name is Jeon Jaehwang.”
They then shook hands and he asked Jaehwang a question. “Why do you hate SNS? And do you have a nickname of some sort?”
“I don’t know but I’ll do it. I have to eat too.”They both then walked together.
Jaehwang was then trying to think of a nickname in his head but couldn’t think of anything. The spirit then asked,
-Why do you need a nickname?
-I need to think of one for one of those broadcasts.
-Hm... So you need a name for other people to know you by?
-Yes.
-So a name, not your actual name but it makes people think of you when they hear it?
-Yep.
-I see.
Jaehwang thought about it for sometime now.
“How about just using ‘The archer’?”
He couldn’t think of anything else and just said the most simple name, DalJeon looked a little unimpressed. “The archer? You need something that packs a lot of impact that the viewers would like. Hm... Ah! How about ‘Deadly’? Your good at shooting arrows and hunting, it goes perfect with your image.”
“Can’t it be something more normal?”
“This isn’t a giveaway. This will get you followers and fans!”
“Okay, okay.”
It was a bit of an embarrassing name but Jaehwang agreed to it. Thinking that a better name would cross his mind soon. The most important thing right now was that he had options.
“Okay, Deadly! It would be be a pleasure doing business with you!”
Jaehwang was starting to regret his choice. He couldn’t imagine how much the name ‘Deadly’ would always stick to him.
“Phew... I need to lose weight.”
Jaehwang and DalJeon arrived at their destination filled giant concrete towers after a long trip.
“What’s this place?”
“Gu Raider Station. It’s been closed for ten years but this was just the perfect place around the neighborhood so they plan on reopening it. It’s sturdy and its location is close to the north side... The distance is a little bothersome but...”
He was explaining as Jaehwang looked around. It was quite sturdy just as he mentioned. It was a little windy and he could see the barrier about 400 meters away. He looked up at the tall tower and slowly made his way at the top of it.
Whiii...
He reached the top thereafter, he stood there and looked below at Justin point. He still couldn’t see the Oaks but he could feel the installation of their walls at the bottom of his feet. He could also hear the sound of the 30mm machine gun.
-Jaehwang?
The spirit then walked up to him.
-Huh?
-‘Deadly’ is a funny nickname.
-I know.
Jaehwang replied.
