Searching for Death Eye



After some time practicing ITF Taekwondo and feeling stronger, Jihoon decided that it was time to face his own fears. He feels that he must search for Death Eye and overcome their mysterious encounter. Jihoon wanted to know more about the true purpose of The Shadows and what they wanted from him.


Jihoon gathered the information he had about their previous encounter and started going around looking for clues about Death Eye's identity and location. He tried to talk to his friends at the True High School, but no one knew more about this mysterious figure. The more he searched, the more it felt that Death Eye was someone who was extremely skilled at keeping his identity hidden.


He even tried to contact the red-coated figure that had appeared and give him information about Death Eye. However, even the red-coated figure was unable to give a definite clue as to who Death Eye was or where he could be found.


After several weeks of fruitless searching, Jihoon felt even more frustrated. He felt like he was circling in a circle and could not find the answer he was looking for. Her frustration peaked, and she decided to try something risky.


Jihoon decided to return to his original meeting place with Death Eye. He knew that it was a bold move, but he felt that he had to face it head on. He went to the location outside that dark and forgotten school, hoping Death Eye would appear again.


He waited with a thumping heart, but there was no sign of the mysterious figure. The night is getting darker, and the weather is getting colder. Jihoon felt annoyed, but he did not want to give up so easily.


As he began to consider leaving, he heard the sound of approaching footsteps. His heart was pounding faster when he saw someone approaching in the darkness.


However, when the figure approached, Jihoon saw that it was not Death Eye. It was Seojin, his training partner in ITF Taekwondo. Seojin looked worried and asked, "Jihoon, what are you doing here alone?"


Jihoon felt embarrassed because he did not tell Seojin about his plan. He explained everything he had done, including trying to search for Death Eye and facing it head on.


Seojin shook her head. "You are very brave, Jihoon, but also very risky. Death Eye is a very powerful mysterious figure, and we don't know what they want. I understand that you want to look for answers, but we have to be careful."


Jihoon felt guilty for not sharing his plans with Seojin before. He knew that he had made a risky mistake and was willing to accept the consequences.


They both decide to return to the ITF Taekwondo dojo and inform Master Kim of Jihoon's risky plans. Master Kim is very worried and warns Jihoon about the potential danger in searching for Death Eye.


However, Jihoon felt that he had to face his own fear and look for answers. He understood that it was his duty to protect himself and the people he loved.


He took his time to reflect, thinking about his next move. Jihoon knew that he could not continue searching for Death Eye without a clear clue. He needs to find a smarter way to unravel the mystery behind The Shadows and the true purpose of Death Eye.


After conversations with Seojin and Master Kim, Jihoon felt increasingly confident that he should gather more information about Death Eye before trying to deal with it again. He began to find out about this mysterious figure from a variety of possible sources, including his martial arts counterparts in the dojo and people who had heard of his whereabouts.


One day, while Jihoon was training at the dojo, he decided to ask Master Kim about what he knew about Death Eye. Jihoon felt that Master Kim might have useful knowledge.


After the practice was over, Jihoon approached Master Kim carefully. "Master Kim, have you ever fought Death Eye?"


Master Kim was silent for a moment, his eyes glaring to the distant past. He then nodded slowly and said, "Yes, Jihoon, I once fought Death Eye."


Master Kim sat on the dojo floor and took Jihoon to sit with him. "The fight happened years ago, when I was young and turbulent. Death Eye was an extremely powerful opponent, even more powerful than I could have imagined at that moment."


Master Kim continued, "When we fought, I felt like I was dealing with an infinite darkness. He had extremely outstanding martial skills and was extremely cunning in his strategy. I fought as well as I could, but he managed to defeat me by a landslide."


Jihoon listened attentively. He could feel shame and pain in Master Kim's words. "What does Death Eye want, Master Kim? Why is he doing all this?"


Master Kim sighed. "That's a question I've never been able to answer. Death Eye was an extremely mysterious figure, and his goal always seemed to be fickle. He may be under the influence of The Shadows, but I never know for sure."


"After that fight, I decided not to look for Death Eye again. I knew that he was too much of a force, and I didn't want to get any further involved in his conflict. I want to protect my students and focus on their training."


Jihoon was honored at Master Kim's discretion. He respected Master Kim's decision to protect his students and not pursue a confrontation with Death Eye again. However, Jihoon also felt that he should seek answers and understand the true intent of The Shadows and Death Eye.


Master Kim continued, "Jihoon, I know that you are eager to seek the truth, but I beg you to be careful. Death Eye was an extremely powerful and mysterious opponent. Don't underestimate the danger you may face."


Jihoon pondered over Master Kim's words and felt that he should be more careful in searching for Death Eye. He understood that his courage must be accompanied by wisdom.


A few months passed, and Jihoon continued to train at the ITF Taekwondo dojo. He felt stronger and more confident, but the question about Death Eye still haunted him. He wanted to know more, and he knew that he had to find a smarter way to approach this mystery.


One day, while he was searching for information about The Shadows, he came across a digital trail that led to a talented hacker known as "Codebreaker." A codebreaker is someone who is skilled at hacking systems and has access to a variety of confidential information.


Jihoon contacts Codebreaker in hopes that he can help find information about The Shadows and Death Eye. They spoke via text message and agreed to meet anonymously in cyberspace to speak further.


Their virtual encounter progresses smoothly, and Jihoon explains his desire to uncover the truth behind The Shadows and the true purpose of Death Eye. Codebreaker agreed to help and began researching the group.


A few days later, Codebreaker contacted Jihoon with shocking information. He has discovered a digital trail that reveals that Death Eye may be involved in a series of suspicious illegal activities, including system hacking and data theft.


Jihoon felt that he had found an important piece of this puzzle. This suggests that The Shadows and Death Eye are a powerful and dangerous group that must be revealed.


However, Codebreaker also tells Jihoon that Death Eye is very cunning in protecting his identity online. They both knew that physically searching for Death Eye was still an extremely dangerous and risky task.


Jihoon contemplates the next steps on his journey to uncover the truth behind The Shadows and Death Eye. He knew that he had to stay alert and prepare well before facing the mysterious figure again.


Jihoon also knew that he would not be alone in this struggle. He has Codebreaker and his friends at the ITF Taekwondo dojo to support him. Together, they will face challenges they have never imagined before.
