My Second Life in Another World

Chapter 24: What Should I Do?

KANAE POV.

I stormed out of the guild as I didn't want to be a part of Murdering people for our benefit. I know it may sound naïve but that is just what I believe in. I am still in shock that they came up with this plan to weaken another country and endanger ordinary civilians for profit.

'It's not like all of them agree. But it is they can't do anything to change his mind.' I thought as I started my car and went towards a place I visit once a week.

After driving for half an hour I reached the place I wanted to visit. In the middle of Tokyo, the Japanese hunters association made a memorial for those who had died in dungeon breaks. I put on my purple cap after parking my car. I made my way towards the inner right side of the memorial ground. After 5 minutes I arrived in front of two graves.

The names on the gravestones were, Tawata Ryuu and Tawata Kaori.

It's the grave of my parents who died in a dungeon break when I was 14. The reason they died was...

Human greed.

When a C-Rank gate's dungeon break happened the local guild didn't dispatch the hunting team immediately but rather waited for casualties to pile up to get more money out of it. It was a time when being a hunter wasn't as lucrative as it is today. The hunter pretty much worked for no money. Which led to that situation.

Due to their greed the dungeon break which could have been easily suppressed turned into an incident in which the death toll went above 10,000. And my parents died in this dungeon when their bodies were found it was mutilated and many body parts were missing. I was in school that day and survived. Because we were sent to the underground shelter.

After hearing this news I didn't know what to do. I mean what could have I done? The hunters of the guild were arrested but that isn't going to change anything. In this world, only those who are strong are respected if you are weak. No one is going to pay attention to you.

I always wanted to become a hunter. And this just fuelled it further. I wanted to be a powerful hunter so that a tragedy like that doesn't happen again. I trained my ass off and still do to this day. Even after becoming an S-Rank hunter. I still work as hard as no harder than before. But after seeing the world what I thought seemed like a pipe dream that isn't going to come true no matter what. there were many people with the same strength as me or even higher than me, but I didn't give up I still worked to be here. But...

'What should I do?' the guild that I am working for is thinking of doing the same thing that I want to prevent from happening. And what can I do about it?

Nothing. I can do Nothing.

"Kaa-san, Tou-san what should I do."

This is all I can think of as blood came out from my palms as my nails dug into it.

"I knew you would be here." Then I heard the voice of someone I knew.

"What are you doing here Akari?" I said without looking at her. She didn't say anything and stood next to me.

"Look you're bleeding want me to heal you? You'll have to pay of course." She said with a smile.

"Sigh* Akari how did things turn out like this?" I asked her.

She looked like she was remembering something. Then it returned to her normal expression.

"No Fucking Idea." She said giggling.

"If you keep an angry face like that you won't get a boyfriend you know." She said.

"WHO WANTS A BOYFRIEND ANYWAY," I shouted at her.

"OK, OK."

"So what did you want to talk about?" I said while looking at Jin-woo who came back two days ago and said he wanted to talk about something important.

"I will be going for a re-evaluation." He said.

"So," I said casually.

"I Have plans on making my own guild." He said.

"So want me to join?" I asked and he nodded.

"Who else is going to join?" I asked.

"Jin-ho." He said I guess he already had a talk with Jin-ho and must have been kicked out of the house by it is a little early from the novel but I guess me being here is also different.

"So, what's the name of the guild?" I asked.

"Solo Play guild." He said I stretched out my hand he smiled and held it and then I said...

"It was nice knowing you. I'll be going now." I was about to take my hand but he pulled me.

"Hey where are you going?" he said.

"Who might you be my friend, I am afraid I don't know you," I said with a straight face.

"Hey Haru stop joking" he shouted.

"I don't know who you are referring to my friend my name is MOB Uchiha. And I have to go and comprehend the laws of being a MOB" I said as took my hand back and turned around. And he just jumped on me.

"Hey come on what's wrong with the name? it is a good name," he said. veins appeared on my forehead.

"What's wrong, You're asking the wrong question the question should be what isn't wrong with it. Get off my back." I said.

"It's a good name," He shouted.

"Who said it is?" I asked.

"…."

"Miss Joo-Hee." He just looked away.

"She just lied to keep your heart," I said.

"OIIII" we were about to begin another fight but,

"Can you both stop shouting? I am trying to study here." Jin-ah said.

I and Jin-woo both looked at each other and became pale.

"Hey is the world ending today?" he asked In panic.

I looked out of the window and said "The sun must have risen from the west."

Jin-woo was calling the hospital.

"Hello, yeah Dae-il hospital, yeah I think my sister has fallen mentally ill can you write an-----" before he could answer jin-ah took his phone and disconnected it.

"GET OUT BOTH OF YOU." She roared and kicked both of us out.

We looked at each other and shook our heads.

"Solo play Is a good name for our guild." He said.

I smiled towards him and said.

"Absolutely fucking not."

"O-Ok we'll think of a new name. but still, it is a go-"

"Not hearing it. lalalalalala" I ran as I covered my ears.

.....

The next day.

Jin-woo went for his rank re-evaluation and I am on my way to clear some dungeon that was left uncleared. I have to go to Seosan it will take some time but I should be back by evening.

I reached Seosan in the afternoon and after clearing 4 B-rank gates in about 5 hours I was on my way back to Seoul which took 2 hours.

After reaching home I took a shower. And went towards Ji-woo's house. Everyone was sitting at home doing their own thing.

"So what was the result?" I asked jin-woo even if I knew the answer.

"Well, they asked me to come again in 3 days." He said as I nodded.

"Then your rank has been confirmed so let's have a feast," I said as he nodded as uncle and Jin-ah's ears perked up as they heard about a feast.

I just shook my head and after wearing an apron I went to cook the feast for us.

'Who Is she going send these to?' I just shook my head not bothering with and we started eating and finished all of the food without leaving anything behind.

Then we all started cleaning up and sat down drinking some oolong tea. It is good for your digestive system so why not.

"So, you two are going to make a guild?" uncle asked as we were sitting jin-ah already went to sleep.

"Yes, that Is the plan," Jin-woo said. He still hasn't made up with uncle.

'Jeez, what a tsundere.' I just shook my head while looking at them and smiling. I just have to wait for aunt to wake up she'll handle it.

I stood up and said.

"Ok, I'll go and sleep it's already late."

After reaching my house I went In and slept straight away.

…..

Hae-in POV.

I was looking at the night sky again. While thinking of him again, he has been on my mind a lot these days. I just can't get him out of my head.

I then looked at a photo on my phone and a smile formed on my face. It was a photo we took at the pork belly shop.

I even saw his fan club page and...

I shook my head to get those images out of my head.

While I was in my thoughts I heard a message notification on my phone and saw it was from Jin-ah we do talk from time to time. Though the only topics we talk about are related to him. Which makes me feel complicated as I see her talk about him nonstop.

Putting those thoughts away I saw the photos and a video they were of Haru cooking and feeding Jin-ah sometimes.

"I want him to feed me too.....HUH," I realized what I just said.

AWAWWAWAWAWWAWAWAWAWAWWAWAWA.

I just jumped in my bed and buried my face in the pillow.

'What am I thinking'
