Chapter 217: The Sword Owner 2

After that shocking situation, Rumi decided to train with Jaehwang.

Of course she was still very confused about everything, it seemed that she had no choice but to do her best to adjust. Jaehwang was being very helpful throughout the practice so that made things a bit easier.

“You’ll get the hang of it.”

Jaehwang said.

The thought of maybe he didn’t have to team up with Baekren on the mission came to mind as they practiced. If Rumi could get the hang of her newly found skills then she could help instead.

Rumi picked up the sword and faced Jaehwang.

“Let’s start.”

“Okay.”

She replied.

Haya!

Blue energy dust emerged from the sword again as she swayed it about.

Swoosh... Swoosh...

The blue dust of the sword surrounded her as she practiced with Jaehwang. It’s power grew stronger each time she practiced attacking.

Swoosh

However, because she was new at all of this it definitely wasn’t easy to get used to. She even got bruises on her own arm somehow.

Tak...

Jaehwang blocked the attacks with his own skills.

The energies from both of them emerged as they practiced. Red energy from Jaehwang and the blue energy from Rumi surrounded each other.

historical

Jiijiijjiii...

Jaehwang created an energy field with the palm of his hands.

But, it wasn’t enough to block everything.

“Ah!”

Jaehwang shouted as he stepped back. His arm had gotten hit by the sword.

Rumi immediately put down the sword and ran towards Jaehwang.

“It’s fine, don’t worry.”

Jaehwang said as his arm bled.

“Are you sure your okay?”

“Really, don’t worry about. This is what practice is about.”

“Okay..”

She said although she still felt terrible.

“You seem to be doing good so far, you just need a little more time to get used to it. After you practice for a while you could become an expert.”

Jaehwang explained.

Although Rumi appreciated Jaehwang’s help and encouragement, she still didn’t feel comfortable having the skill and she didn’t feel like she could ever feel comfortable with it.

But even so, she decided to continue on with the practice.

Swoosh! Tak!

The practice went on for almost an hour before they took another break.

“Let’s rest.”

“Okay.”

Both of them were out of breath tirelessly gasping for air.

-Good, right?

-Yea.

The first practice went considerably great compared to how first practices usually go.

-This is good news.

-I know.

Jaehwang said in reply to the spirit still exhausted.

He then leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes.

-The raid has nothing to do with Japan.

-It’s seemed to be no use in using the information from Japan in this situation.

-Do we have any supporters there to stand by just in case for the raid?

-A Japanese hunter shouldn’t be needed at all on this raid.

-Can’t they protect their own country?

“This is ridiculous.”

Jaehwang said to himself reading Japanese comments on an article online about the raid mission.

“Don’t worry about those comments too much. There’s always going to be people who don’t approve.”

“Yea, you’re right.”

“Besides, they’re president only cares about money in power so there’s no way they would lend us any soldiers just to help.”

“Money and power?”

“Yes, and because of that, what he said really affected the public’s opinion on the situation...”

“So no matter what we do we most likely won’t be able to get a lot of support from Japan?”

“Kind of. Our countries are very close to each other and Japanese and Koreans aren’t really hateful to each other so the citizens could have their own minds and start to support us. Because later when we go to the Alousu the more support from them the better.”

“Yea.”

Jaehwang agreed.

“None of that should be too hard anyway. Who knows, we could get more people than we expect.”

After he had been various articles all day Jaehwang finally stopped reading them and all of the comments and closed the laptop.

“Sir!”

“What is it?!”

“There’s an explosion!”

One of the soldiers said in a panic.

“What!”

Jaehwang replied in shock.

“It seems that we’re being attacked. Our soldiers are getting prepared to do what we can do to fight back.”

“I’ll call for help and see what I can do.”

“Yes, sir!”
