Chapter 387: Age of Confusion (3)
Chairman Woo Jin-Cheon struggled to breathe, continuously coughing and clutching his neck, eventually vomiting blood onto the floor. The officials of the Hunters Association attempted to assist him, but Chairman Woo angrily pushed them away.
Keuk!
How is this possible? I should be stronger now after my second awakening! Chairman Woo fumed inwardly while still gasping for breath on the ground.
The global Hunters Associations had yet to devise a new ranking system for those who had experienced a second awakening, leaving them stuck with the old rankings.
Chairman Woo still held the status of an A Rank Hunter. His strength as an A Rank Hunter, however, stemmed mainly from his position as the chairman of the Hunters Association, granting him unrestricted access to the associations abundant equipment. Despite this, after his second awakening, he was no longer the same A Rank Hunter Woo Jin-Cheon.
Immediately following his second awakening, he equipped himself from head to toe with the best gear and conducted tests to assess his newfound powers. The results were astonishinghe had become exponentially stronger, now capable of going head-to-head with a Master Hunter.
Confident in his newfound strength, he had boldly raised his voice at Mister Freemason.
I should be special! No! Im special!
However, the disbelief set in when a hologram image of Mister Freemason caused him to vomit blood and struggle for breath, despite his significant increase in strength after the second awakening.
Impossible! I refuse to believe it!
Chairman Woo remained on the floor, unable to rise until the meeting concluded.
[We have needlessly wasted our precious time. We shall continue the meeting.]
Mister Freemasons spine-chilling voice redirected everyone's attention back to the meeting.
It was ironic that Chairman Woo failed to realize that if he had his second awakening, others could too. After all, the only reason he could experience his second awakening and gain more power was Earth's transition into a second dimension.
Regardless of whether Chairman Woo was on the ground or not, the meeting continued. Dr. Santinora excitedly and passionately explained his latest creations.
C-Crack!
Damn it! Chairman Woo Jin-Cheon gritted his teeth in anger.

While Freemason was plotting something sinister, Han-Yeol focused on hunting monsters. He no longer had to risk traveling all the way to the Bastro Dimension just for hunting. It wasn't only the Hunters who underwent changes; even the monsters on Earth became stronger after being exposed to the increased mana density, now on par with the Bastro Dimensions mana density.
Han-Yeol was not the only person to benefit from this change.
Chwik! Chwik!
I feel more powerful! Chwik!
Ill devour them all! Chwik!
The Black Orcs gained the ability to grow stronger the more enemies they devoured. This time, they became even more formidable after being influenced by the increased mana density.
What was truly remarkable, however, was the fact that the Black Orc Horde, which initially numbered around eighty thousand when they first became Han-Yeols slaves, had now expanded to more than one hundred thousand orcs.
Technically, their population should be even higher, but their imprudent hunting methods led to the deaths of numerous young orcs in battle. However, Han-Yeol chose not to interfere in their affairs, deciding to view it as their culture and way of life.
The Black Orc Horde established a camp in the mountainous terrain on the outskirts of the city formerly known as Fukuoka, where they hunted monsters in the vicinity.
Chwik! Commander! Please look at the sky!
Hmm?
The Black Orc Commander looked up at the sky after one of the scouts pointed at it. He raised one hand to shield his eyes from the suns glare.
Ah, its the master. Hurry up and prepare to welcome the master! Chwik!
As you command! Chwik!
Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!
The scout rang the cowbell to signal Han-Yeols arrival, and the Black Orcs gathered almost immediately.
Chwak!
Kieeeeek!
Hmm?
Mavros did not quietly land, as he always did; instead, he spread his wings wide open and touched down, appearing as majestic as possible. It seemed as if he was attempting to assert his dominance over the Black Orcs and prove that he was the top authority in this place.
Haha! Seriously, this guy Are you trying to prove youre a man too? Han-Yeol thought with a laugh.
It appeared that the Black Orcs had gotten on Mavros nerves. Han-Yeol had recently increased his number of subordinates by acquiring slaves, and inevitably, a man would try to assert dominance over others. Mavros was doing the same, emphasizing and reminding the Black Orcs that he was the boss in this territory.
Unfortunately, the Black Orcs couldn't be bothered by Mavros and his antics.
