      by Ember heart — Chapter 24 The Devil of the Academic Society (3) The academic conference was becoming a public execution ground. Jeongwoo's questions did not stop even after that. Those who stepped up to the podium in the seminar room were bombarded with questions to the point where their very dignity was being completely destroyed. ‘Please, someone stop this horrible thing!’ ……Everyone was secretly crying out that way in their hearts. But at the same time, from an academic point of view, things…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 23 The Demon of the Conference (2) It had been about two weeks since the Korean Hunter Association was launched. Since it was a reform limited to the relatively small field of the Hunter industry, there had been no major changes in the lives of ordinary citizens. However, for those involved, all kinds of earth-shaking changes had taken place. The same was true for the academic world related to Gates. “Hmm? The Association is holding an academic conference?” “Yes, Professor.…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 21 A New Era (3) In the history of South Korea, North Korea had always been a name that was both close and uncomfortable. It was the same during the time when the two countries were divided and opposed to each other, and it was still the same now, when the world had changed drastically because of the Millennium Shock. No, in some ways, North Korea was now an even more painful name to the public. Even before discussing reunification or permanent division, the entire country of North Korea…

      by Ember heart —   Chapter 20 A New Era (2) The world was excited over the judgment of the great evil known as the Management Bureau, praising the heroes who had accomplished such a feat. The media was so interested in the general assembly that they were even waiting in anticipation for the new era those heroes would create. However, things in the world were always different from how they appeared. For the heroes actually sitting in the meeting room, justice and the greater cause were secondary…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 19 A New Era (1) The news on the TV in the living room was reporting on everything related to Hojong all day long. It had already been a day since Jeongwoo had laid a trap and taken down Hoguk Party and the Management Bureau in one move. Now that the aftermath was being dealt with, the news was filled with discussions about what would happen from now on. Jeongwoo watched the news while folding laundry. No, to be exact, he was looking at Segi's round head, which was sitting…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 18 You Cannot Stop a Tidal Wave with Your Hands (4) How powerful is the temptation of power? If one had to describe its intensity, there could hardly be a more fitting expression than saying that it was strong enough to erase the very concept of common sense from a person's mind and fill the empty space with greed. That was why the actions of fallen people in power, when their authority was threatened, often went beyond the boundaries of common sense. The history that had continued for…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 17 You Cannot Stop a Tsunami with Your Hands (3) This was something that had happened in Jeongwoo's original history before his regression. At first, the whistleblower scandal had progressed rather slowly, but after Director Jin Ho-jong of the Countermeasures Bureau reviewed the evidence and became convinced of its truth, the situation changed greatly. He mobilized every resource and infrastructure available to him and openly exposed the corruption of the Patriot Party and the Management…

Major media outlets also began reporting on the evidence of corruption within the Management Bureau that had been posted on the Hunter community. Under normal circumstances, the incident would have been dismissed as the work of conspiracy theorists. But this time was different. There was only one reason.

      by Ember heart — Chapter 15 You Cannot Stop a Tidal Wave with Your Hands (1) An S-rank Gate had appeared in the middle of Seoul. Although it was an accident that happened in a Third-type Gate, which was a stay-type Gate rather than an invasion-type First or Second Gate, the words “S-rank Gate” alone were enough to create fear. On top of that, Jungwoo, who was considered the future of the National Hunters, had entered the place alone. So you could imagine how much attention was focused on…
