°°°


After Li Wen Xia's death, the position of chairman of the Southeast Asia Hunter Association was now vacant.


Due to the vacancy of the chairman position, non-Association Hunters who had always preferred to hide for fear of Li Wen Xia, began to appear.


They even bravely conducted illegal raids in many Dungeons blatantly, resulting in chaos in many cities in Southeast Asia, especially in the capital, City A.


Almost all cities in Southeast Asia were muddled by the Dungeon Gate raid rights struggle that took place between non-Associated Hunters and Association-listed official Hunters.


With the exception of City C, which already has a new Association chairman, who have now separated themselves from the World Association system because they consider the leadership system of Fernando Cavalli has really been severely damaged by political influence that is more concerned with business than their initial goal to eradicate entire Dungeon gates were constantly popping up all over the world.


After killing Li Wen Xia and taking down Wang Xu Chan by force from the chair of the C City Association, Gina Stewart took over the leadership of the Association and reorganized all activities, as well as, the schedule and laws were previously changed by Wang Xu Chan and his colony.


Gina Stewart reinstated the rules as her father used to hold office. He also added some new regulations that have a very good effect on the security of the citizens of City C.

"City C is calm now" said Gus Stevin, who had just returned from lecturing to the newly recruited Hunter-hunter Association.


The new Hunters were young Hunters who had just graduated from Hunter Academy.


Gus did not expect that the Association, which initially did not expect to have Academy graduates willing to join, instead obtained hundreds of application forms.


"The trend seems to have changed" Davina said as she looked at hundreds of admission forms to the Association's admissions account.


"Tren's changed?" gus asked with frowning brows.


"Two great guilds have already fallen. Guilds that were in the top three did not have sufficient Hunters to provide them with a good experience. Right now, those young Hunters knew who frequently raided in high-ranked Dungeons. So that's where they left."


Gus nodded slowly. "You're right. It's certain they'll go to the Association."


"Well, they can't possibly join the Nine Bears, right?"


Gus laughing.


The Nine Bears Guild was now filled only by the hunter avatar with Rin as the chairman replacing Gina.


Because the hunter avatar is so flexible, Rin can control it from wherever it is located.


Rin also did not live in C City anymore. With Miyuki, he now travels around the world to help small countries that do not have a strong Hunter close the Dungeon.


"But, not a few citizens were also disappointed in Gina and Miyuki. Supposedly, after they killed Li Wen Xia and his accomplice, they took over the Southeast Asian Association or at least secured the situation. Now, as they left the central Association without a new chairman, the chaos between the two Hunter camps was everywhere."


"Tsk... They did that just for the sake of fighting over the treasures that were within the Dungeon. What are they fighting for the rights of the raid for? All Hunters should be working together to close all Dungeon gates so that Earth can return to what it used to be." Sahut Gina, who just entered Gus Stevin's room.


"You've been showing up all of a sudden lately. Just be surprised" complained Gus Stevin. He was really shocked when he heard Gina suddenly say what she said to Davina.


Gina simply responded with a thin smile and continued to go all the way to Davina's desk.


"Have you found out where Chris Meyers went yet?"


Davina then grunts annoyedly when she remembers how the big man and big man escaped Chris for losing power when ambushing the criminal they hunted too rashly even though he and other colleagues were on the way to help.


"Didn't Miyu track him via satellite?" ask Gus.


"Miyu never fiddled with her computer again. He and Rin are focusing on doing a lot of raids."

In a villa in C City.


Kenichiro Tanaka sat daydreaming on the terrace of the Association's villa that Gina had lent to the Tanaka family for their rest and seclusion over the past month.


The middle-aged man stared blankly at the beautiful scenery in the flower garden within the villa complex.


He was like a zombie who lost the spirit of life to make Eiko who was worried about him to have to take over all the family business and move the business from afar.


Eiko has to work really hard. While running the Tanaka family business, he also had to accompany and take care of his father all day.


"Dad, do you still want to stay here?" Ask Eiko who just returned from an online meeting inside one of the rooms in the villa.


Kenichiro let out a long sigh, while looking back at the beautiful flowers blooming in the garden.


After he knew what he was doing while under Li Wen Xia's hypnotic magic, he was now completely embarrassed to return home.


Kenichiro who is very firm in honesty and justice has even wanted to do seppuku. If Miyuki had not suddenly appeared before him to prevent the middle-aged man from doing so, she would have already died.


"Only Gina can take your life! He has a right to it! Atone for your mistake and finish off the Dungeon as much as you can! Don't be a samurai with a weak mentality!"


Miyuki said at that time.


However, every time Kenichiro saw another video of how he attacked the Hunter-hunters who were in the way of truth, he was always haunted by a very deep guilt that did not dare to touch his katana again.


•••


"Dad, didn't Nakano-San ask you to fight again to eradicate Dungeons? If this kind of father continues, it will make the death of Stewart-San and Hunter-hunter Southeast Asia then be futile,"


"From my father's continued confinement in this place, why don't we find Chris Meyers who managed to escape?"


After listening to what his daughter said, Kenichiro finally nodded slowly.


Although he was under hypnotic influence, he still remembered the glimpse of the place where Chris and the people from the secret organization were hiding.


Kenichiro who was sitting on an old chair finally looked up, looking at Eiko who was standing next to him.


"Please call Stewart-San. I want to say something important to her."


Hearing that, the sad expression on Eiko's face slowly faded, replaced by a cheerful expression as she saw her father seemed to be starting over to seek the truth.


"Yes, dad." Sahut Eiko who then went to contact Gina.
