(E/N: yes, I edited two chapters in a day because I don't have a life anymore.)

"Choi Jong-In...I want to ask..what rumours are you talking about?"

At the mention of the rumours, everyone perked up and suddenly, all attention shifted to the four S-rank hunters. Choi Jong-In became awkward and started sweating. He thought Jin-Woo knew about the rumours!

"A-ah...The rumours about...uhh...y-you and Hunter Liu Zhigeng...da-dating?"

Choi Jong-In cursed inwardly, he sounded awkward and stupid!!! He looked around to avoid Jin-Woo's eyes.

Secretly glancing at Jin-Woo, Jong-In noticed that he looked blank and confused as if he had no idea what Choi Jong-In was talking about.

"Me and Liu Zhigeng? Dating?"

The other three nodded.

However, they didn't dismiss the fact that Jin-Woo called Liu Zhigeng's name without any formality. Sung Jin-Woo closed his mouth with his hand and turned around, his body trembling.

"S-Sung Jin-Woo?"

"Hahaha! Sorry, but really? You think like that?"

All of them nodded dumbly.

Jin-Woo laughed softly and muttered under his breath," they did-"

"S-Stop laughing!" Choi Jong-In was getting more and more flustered as Jin-Woo proceeded to laugh non-stop.

"I'm sorry. I can't believe you thought like that, hahaha."

His laugh was soft and pleasant to hear, it was the kind of laugh that you could listen to all day without being bored. Then again, it wasn't every day you can see him laughing in public. After all, he is the formidable and powerful S-rank hunter of South Korea.

Sung Jin-Woo cleared his throat, "Ehem, excuse me. However, me and Liu Zhigeng are not dating, we were simply hanging out as friends."

"I-I see.."

"Where were we? Oh yes, what do you think about the gate?"Asked Sung Jin-woo, wanting to get back to the work at hand.

"Huh? Oh yes! The gate is smaller than the usual ones and it appeared at an uninhabited place. Fortunately, it was found before the dungeon break." Said Choi Jong-In, being a bit disoriented with the sudden change of the topic.

"The assistants scanned the gate and even though it is small, the magic inside the gate is tremendous. It is even preventing us from entering." Added Cha Hae-In.

"When was the gate discovered?"

"3 days ago." Supplied Baek Yoonho.

"...this is the outskirts of the city and this place has little to none of the people passing by. I think this gate appeared a long time before it was found."

"Then you mean-" said Cha Hae-in, suddenly feeling a chill down her spine.

"The dungeon break may happen today."

It was almost as if Jin-Woo had jinxed it all, whatever that blocked the gate was destroyed and a tremendous amount of magic was released.

The assistants ran to safety while the hunters prepared themselves for a fight.

Slowly, someone walked out of the gate. The hunters gasped, shocked to see the creature that appeared out of the gate. They glanced at Sung Jin-Woo who was shocked as much as they are.

The creature? The person? Was a muscular middle-aged man with black eyes, shaggy black hair and slight facial hair. He wore a tattered grey cloak over a ragged white undershirt, baggy black pants and a pair of black boots.

This person was Sung il-Hwan, the father of Sung Jin-Woo and the person that the entire world was looking for.

No one moved as they were still in shock. Sung il-Hwan raised his hand and used Ruler's Authority to make the hunters float to prevent them from using their skill except for one.

Sung Jin-Woo snapped out of his shock and activated his own Ruler's Authority to protect himself along with the people near him. Jin-Woo was surprised by how powerful his father's skill was, it was on par with his own.

Sung il-Hwan noticed them and was confused as to how they were able to resist his Ruler's Authority. Then he finally saw his son, Sung Jin-Woo, using the same skill like him. He couldn't believe it, his lovely son that he had sworn to protect was standing before him, surrounded by those disgusting Alphas that he disdained. (Even though he is an Alpha himself, he is the typical overprotective dad that won't let their child date anyone that they didn't approve of or probably won't even let his son date anyone.)

Witnessing his son using Ruler's Authority skilfully, he realised that his son is somehow involved with the Rulers. However, the thoughts were immediately abandoned when he felt the thousands of presences on his son. At that moment, he realised that his son is the Shadow Monarch.

Oh No! His son is the Shadow Monarch!!!
