Chapter 5 (1/2)
Chapter 5: I will think about it (2)
In the end, Choi Cheol-Sik left fruitlessly. His pace of walking was really quick.
Well, it was understandable.
From his standpoint, he was just beaten until he was half-way on death’s doorstep and healed up in one go by a monster’s magic.
After Park Chun-woo confirmed that Choi Cheol-Sik had left the peripheral far enough, Park Chun-woo closed his eyes and mutterred.
“Well, he was originally a rational guy, so he probably wouldn’t say much. Anyway, the government is already restless about me not returning……. I didn’t think the situation would become so annoying. I should still have around 6 more months to prepare.”
Park Chun-woo checked the date.
He had exactly 185 days, about 6 months and few days, to spare.
Not yet.
I cannot return yet. I need some more time to prepare.
“I was going to return when time was right but why is everyone so agitated. But, it would definitely be a problem if our lands were to be taken away…. Maybe I should just say I returned without exactly doing anything. Then, China will probably have to back off.”
I already experienced China’s greed for Korean land in my 4th reincarnation.
This was the case even when Park Chun-woo became undeniably became the strongest hunter who could not be messed with. China, however, tried to contend against Korea every chance they had in order to acquire more land.
China was the same this time around.
If Park Chun-woo did not return and help Korea, Korea will have no other option but to watch their land be taken over by China.
That cannot happen. Park Chun-woo did not wish for that to happen.
“This is enough changes for now.”
Many changes occurred over the seven years Park Chun-woo quit being a hunter.
Straightforwardly, even the president of Republic of Korea changed.
*(TL: He is comparing to the other time he reincarnated. He goes back in time when he reincarnates btw)
Even though Korea should have been a hunter superpower, Korea was now at a point where they were neither strong nor weak. They were even pushed by America and is now maintaining a difficult alliance with the US.
Well this much change is fine.
But Park Chun-woo did not want any more changes. Any more and it would be too irritating to calculate.
“AH, whatever. I despise complicated things. Even if I keep saying not to come back, they will keep bothering me anyway. I guess I can tell them I will return in names only. Then China won’t be able keep dictating us around.”
Park Chun-woo closed his eyes once again.
He decided to sleep on his hammock.
Choi Cheol-Sik directly visited the President himself.
He clearly reported that Park Chun-woo had no intention of returning to the President.
“Is that Park Chun-woo’s final will?”
“Yes. I tried to convince him, but it was no use. He was quite stubborn and strong-willed so I could not do anything but leave reluctantly.”
Choi Cheol-Sik only told what was necessary.
He did not say anything unnecessary, especially about getting beaten up by Park Chun-woo. He was scared s.h.i.+tlessly how he might be beaten up by Park Chun-woo again if he accidentally said too much.
“Ah I see. Thank you for your trouble.”
Momentarily, President pondered.
He looked like he was contemplating about Park Chun-woo, and how they will handle China’s pressure.
“Go with me.”
“……….What?”
Choi Cheol-Sik was truly startled by what he heard.
For a second he doubted his own ears.
Go together? To who?

var infolinks_wsid = 13;
‘Ehey. It probably…… is not him.’
Completely different what Choi Cheol-Sik thought would happen, President got up from his seat and put on his overcoat.
“I will personally try to convince hunter Park Chun-woo.”
“Pre-President. Maybe we should try to find another way out of this instead….. .”
“We cannot. This is the only option we have left. If we cannot convince hunter Park Chun-woo, we will have no other way but to give up our northern territories. We have to defend our land no matter what. Let’s go together. I beg you.”
The President politely bowed his head.
“Keuuk….. I understand. Let us go by my car.”
“Thank you very much, representative Choi Cheol-Sik.”
*(TL: Choi Cheol-Sik is one of the representative in Korea’s government/body making as mentioned in chapter 2 or 3)
‘Ah. Why again! I don’t want to f.u.c.king meet that son of a b.i.t.c.h Park Chun-woo! Let’s just find another way!’
