"Hahaha, dear. Let's smile!"
"Ahhhh! No!! no !!"
A thick hand grasped the child's shoulders. It looked like he's hugging the child, but his strong grip almost bruises the child's skin under his clothes.
"It hurts!"
"Goodness.. that's annoying." The old man, who was sitting affectionately in front of the child and trying to take a picture, erased the smile he was making like a tattoo when a bodyguard holding the camera shook his head.
"Argh!"
"Teacher Cho!!!!"
"Ahhh!! Teacher!!!"
The children were crying in a hoarse voice. The volunteers tried to soothe the children, but they couldn't stop crying.
"Hey, volunteers! Try to comfort those children!" The secretary shouted overbearingly, but the volunteers were not enough. They stood as a background to the peaceful scenery created by Mr. Cho's students in the first place.
"You don't have to take a picture of these kids, do you sir?" The secretary said to the congressman, who plucked his seat by pushing the crying child to his side as if he was annoyed. If it were an ordinary orphanage facility, the director would have prepared a suitable child for taking pictures, but he couldn't expect such convenience here.
"Hey, Secretary Byun." At Hong's words, a middle-aged man called a secretary bowed.
"Yes, Mr. Hong."
"If I let the press know that I care about these kids from the Kingdom of the Three Sky religion, which is related to the Master Archer, do you know how many votes I'll get from the public?"
"You are right, but this is where he is investing his own money. If anyone says that someone is treating the children here harshly….then…"
"Hahaha. Who here would talk like that?"
Hong looked around and said as if he wanted the people around him to listen.
At Hong's overbearing eyes, the volunteers who took care of the children also lowered their heads for fear of eye contact with him. No, rather than being afraid of him, they must've been afraid of his bodyguards standing around, wary of all sides. As if to advertise that they are hunters, they wore a black leather bag that looks like it contains a cold weapon on their backs.
Although the gates were fully stabilized in South Korea, the monsters would still appear from time to time so those with high social status tend to carry around bodyguards made up of hunters. And Hong, who was here now, was a senior member of the current ruling party and had about a dozen hunters on his side all the time. He could receive death threats too from those who were unhappy about his policies so it really was useful to keep them around.
"That girl looks fine. Bring her to me."
Rep. Hong said, pointing to a slightly older girl who was caressing the other children. She seemed to understand what was going on by the way she comforts the other children.
"Yes. Rep. Let's just take a picture with her then we'll leave."
"Oh, my God, what a worry! All right." He nodded reluctantly, frowning while knowing that he didn't want any more trouble here. Then, the secretary shouted at the bodyguard who was on guard nearby.

"Hey, get her."
The face of the guard, who stood still and was wary of his surroundings, was slightly distorted by the yell of the annoyed secretary. The guard recently got a job as a security guard for the congressman and lately he had not much work to do and was quite free from danger. However, it was not always easy because of such situations as now.
Whenever this man of no star acts arrogant and speaks informally to himself such as "hey" or "You," he feels uneasy. He strode toward the child the secretary had pointed, determined to somehow line up on the Clan side and get out of the country or anywhere as soon as this job was over.
"What's your name, kid?!"
The words that came out were rough because he was in a bad mood. At his word, the girl who was caressing the crying children and blocking the adults as if to protect them said, "I'm Hyun-Ji."
"Yes, Hyun-Ji. Let's take a picture with that grandpa over there." He tried to say the name as softly as possible, but the eyes of the child named Hyun-Ji were full of vigilance. Still, she hesitated because she thought that the men would step away if she just took a picture. The man, who couldn't stand the short moment of her hesitation, grabbed Hyun-Ji's arm.
"Gosh! You're annoying. I just need to take a picture."
"Oh! It hurts!"
The scream in the child's throat hardened his countenance. It was when he tried to raise his voice to the child again that, in a blink of an eye, there was a pair of sneakers that struck his face.
POW! AWK!
The sneakers that hit his face soon hit his ankle, and the man was down on the ground.
There was a moment of silence in the hall.
Maybe it was because all saw such an absurd scene. Except for the owner of the sneakers, no one had even moved as if all the thinking had stopped.
The cool voice of the owner of the sneakers echoed in the hall. "Volunteers, please lead the children to the Animal Farm. You can tell Mr. Cha, the manager of the animal farm, that you guys came a little early because you had work to do."
"Ye-yes."
With his usual calm voice, the volunteers, who came to their senses, began to move mechanically as if they were robots. The same goes for children. The children, who had cried so hard just a moment ago, looked at the owner of the sneakers and stopping crying.
Jaehwang told the children, "Brave Bites! I have to talk to these bad guys, so go ahead and stay at the animal farm, okay?"
It's a normal voice, but it contained God's will.
The will comforts and embraces the children that were wounded with the pretty shocking scene of Mr.Cho's performance, who they trusted and followed.
"Yes teacher."
The children went out of their seats and followed the volunteers. Until the volunteers and the children disappeared from their sights, all the people in the hall could not even move their steps as if they were enchanted. The moment they were gone, sparks rose from Jaehwang's eyes.
The atmosphere in the hall changed in a breath. It seems to have fallen from the flowerbed of heaven to the bottom of hell.
"How dare you…"
THUD…
The earth began to vibrate slowly. Even Jaehwang was unfamiliar with such feelings of anger that were now going out of control.
It feels as if it was imprinted deep in his DNA, awakened from a deep sleep with a trigger a little while ago. The proof that he was enduring was that no one was dead yet. None of these people would be alive if he had expressed his anger without controlling it.
"If you don't want to die, go away," Jaehwang said to an old man in his 60s, wearing a windbreaker and appearing to be their leader.
His words moved the old man's mouth. "Do you know who I am?"
A young man appeared and spoke in a terrible manner.
"I'll get to know who you are, but you'll get lost for now."
"Huh, you're a bold guy." He might sound resolute but he was a politician. He knows how to hide one's anger in laughter. With his half-naked hair combed back and wearing matte-glasses, his thin eyes narrowed.
Who was he? He was the current leader of the opposition party and a three-term congressman. And these days, he was once again recognized as the next presidential candidate for being the kingmaker who established the president of the previous administration. He had already been offended by the director's response to his arrival here, but some clumsy man dared to step on his bodyguard. No, it must be the Villain. The young man, who had been struggling for a long time on the strength he obtained as if he won a lotto, dared to step on Hong's own serviceman.
He thought that he could teach this young man the fear of reality. There was no one around here anyway.
"Guards."
THUD!
His bodyguards quickly blocked Jaehwang's way and pulled their weapons out of the leather cases they were carrying. Various cold weapons and ferocious automatic rifles popped out.
Claw...claw...
Their bullets were loaded and the safety pin was released. The Nursery was on the verge of a flurry of gunfire. Looking at their hands, Jaehwang muttered quietly, "This is where the children live, so those dangerous things of yours…"
SWOOSH...
As he swept his hand from left to right, the weapons in the guards' hands flew sideways, as if someone had blown them away.
"...are not allowed and for the sake of the children's emotional development, such a threatening look…"
SWOOSH...
As he flicked his finger, a wave of air that started from his hand exploded, causing concentric circles, and the hunters who were exposed to it collapsed in their seats while holding onto their hearts.
"I'd appreciate it if you could avoid it."
When Jaehwang mixed hostile mana and lightly released it, the Hunters' mana engines exposed to it were like pouring diesel into a gasoline engine. They immediately malfunctioned and began to attack the Mana Road of their hosts. If Jaehwang didn't solve it himself, they would have to stop hunting for good and if they tried to resist it, they would be ruined. It's a cruel trick to turn your opponent into a half-disabled person, though it's not apparent. However, Jaehwang apparently showed some generosity.
He couldn't just spray some blood on the place where the children were playing.
"Who..who the hell are you!?" When all the trusted guards fell to their seats, Hong's secretary, who realized that his opponent was a formidable top villain, shouted out in a fit of fear. Of course, Jaehwang didn't want to answer that question. No, he doesn't have to answer to him.
As Jaehwang passed the spirit of anger on the eyes that met him, the pants of the secretary who was exposed to it began to get wet. It was not through the retina, but the power of God was beating his spirit directly. His usual resistance was nonsense.
"Ugh…!!!" He rolled his eyes back and fainted.
Now, it was only Rep. Hong who stands. He faltered back and shouted. "Do you know who I am?! How dare you, Villain, threaten the representative legislator of this Republic of Korea! Don't think you're gonna get away with this! Oh! You son-of-bitch! Back when I was a prosecutor, I screwed up many guys like you!" His voice, which had been quivering at first, soon began to roar. He was a prosecutor in the war against Villain but luckily, the drama presenting him as a great character aired and made a hit. Hong used it well to enter politics. He was famous for not hesitating to say improper things in elections as if it were true, even though the image was just created by the broadcasting company anyway.
"Get the hell out of here!!" With his eyes wide open, Hong screamed furiously. It was the passion of a politician who had endured more than twenty years in the rough political arena. The problem was that now, he really met the wrong person.
Then, a group of people came running from far away.
