Someone tried to say something but quickly realized that no one else was speaking and decided against it.
In fact, it didnât need to be said. Everyone was surely thinking the same way.
Unless what had happened was just a freak coincidence, what they were currently looking at was a Single. And there was only one of his kind in Korea.
This man could immediately silence hundreds of emergency notifications with just a single phone call.
This was someone who had the ability to completely close cracks below Typhoon-class by himself.
If only anyone had been thinking about anything other than Yoo-seong⊠they would have been sympathizing with Han Jae-gyu.
Han Jae-gyu did not even move an inch. Then finallyâŠ
âWell, thereâŠâ he said, trying to break the silence with a trembling voice. âAre you really Oh Yoo-seong?â
Yoo-seong did not answer. It wasnât that he was ignoring Han Jae-gyu. He just had to focus on the matter at hand.
âI just⊠earlier⊠I was mistaken⊠I wouldnât have said that unless I was mistaken,â said Han Jae-gyu, clearly trying to hide the tremors in his voice.
Considering the shock and embarrassment he felt, he deserved praise for his quick response.
Taking a step toward Yoo-seong, Han Jae-gyu spoke out even more urgently. âI would like to apologize for my mistake. If you have the timeâŠâ
âIâm sorry, but I donât.â
Yoo-seong did not even let Han Jae-gyu finish, much less look at him.
His eyes were fixed on his phone. âIâm reading a briefing right now.â
Yoo-seongâs low voice rang heavily through the silent room.
âI have to close the crack alone. To do that, I need to devote all of my remaining time to preparations.â
Of course, Yoo-seong had closed larger and more dangerous cracks in the past. However, as always, even if he could block the crack by himself, civilian safety was a more important issue.
No one could ever be sure of what might happen.
âI donât want to waste time talking about things that donât matter. If you are a hunter, you will understand.â
Indeed, everyone agreed right away.
âIt is definitely different.â
âYes, there is weight to his words.â
The hunters wearing the Hankwang uniform were no exception. They, too, agreed with Yoo-seong. It was an example of how easy it was for people to change their stand.
On the other hand, what Yoo-seong had said was an irrefutable argument.
A while ago, Yoo-seong had been treated like an idiot for pointing out the line cutting committed by Park Kang-min and Han Jae-gyu. However, their opinion of him had shifted as soon as his identity was exposed.
There was a big difference between what a freelance beginner said and what a hero declared. After all, in this time of industry, position and power mattered the most.
However, their opinion of Yoo-seong wasnât the only thing that had changed.
Han Jae-gyu was a young man who had been considered a dark horse who could potentially overwhelm Korea.
Right now, no one was seeing him that way, for he had just made a fool out of himself. He had been reduced to a nobody by his own mouth.
Han Jae-gyu, who had never received such looks in his life, felt uneasy all of a sudden. Meanwhile, Yoo-seong kept his eyes fixed on his phone as he walked around.

He stepped right in front of the hospital entrance. The automatic door recognized him and opened to let him pass through.
âHa, my grandfather!â
After moments of contemplating and weighing his options, Han Jae-gyu had chosen his best weapon, something he had never used before.
Didnât Han Jae-gyu say it himself?
He was the grandson of the Hankwang Group president, but whatever he had right now, it was all because of his own ability. HoweverâŠ
âThe Hankwang Group President Han Kwang-ho wants to meet Oh Yoo-seong!â
He was trembling more than ever.
At this very moment, he had resorted to using his grandfatherâs name in order to establish his position. Han Jae-gyu himself was unconsciously admitting it, though to everyone else it was rather obvious â he had been relying on his name all along.
The Hankwang Groupâs influence held so much weight that a few bluffing words could not easily shake it.
âIt doesnât have to be today. But sooner or later, weâd like to set up an appointment with you.â
Even when he had never felt so disappointed with himself, Han Jae-gyu felt some sort of relief, for he had managed to stop his voice from shaking.
Chin-!
Yoo-seong stopped walking.
He turned his head to look at Han Jae-gyu, and Han Jae-gyu simply sighed with relief. The hunters all around them held their breath for what might become a part of history.
However, Yoo-seong remained still. He just glanced over his shoulder, looking at Han Jae-gyu.
âSomething⊠please say somethingâŠâ
Just like that, Han Jae-gyuâs voice started to tremble again. All because of Yoo-seongâs eyes.
He stared at Han Jae-gyu without any interest, without an inch of respect. It was a gaze that made Han Jae-gyu feel utterly small.
âAs I said, my grandfatherâŠâ
Looking at the pathetic Han Jae-gyu, Yoo-seong pondered for a moment. Did he have to say exactly what was going on in his mind right now?
Soon, he came to a conclusion.
Push-
Yoo-seong took out his phone and pressed the call button. Then he went on his way.
âAre you taking Hankwang for granted?!â
Han Jae-gyu was near tears.
No one knew who Yoo-seong had called on the way out; they werenât able to overhear the conversation.
In truth, Yoo-seong had not ignored Han Jae-gyu.
Heâd just tried to convey his thoughts in a slightly different way.
Yoo-seong walked out of the hospital.
âYou will find out soon,â he muttered.
His response was not just for Han Jae-gyu.
It was for everyone.

âLetâs go!â
The Hankwang Medical Center was experiencing unprecedented chaos years after the building had been built.
âWhere are you? Can I go to the West Building?â
âNo, Iâll have to go to the roof of the East Wing or Annex to see you!â
The hunters who had previously been waiting for their medical treatment inside the hospital began to pour out. Their reasons were all the same.
âWow! Are the railings already full?â
âIt canât be helped. This is a one-of-a-kind opportunity.â
Everyone wanted to be in a position where they could clearly see Yoo-seong closing the crack, which was about to happen anytime soon.
The location of the hospital itself was just across from the crackâs barrier area. That was why almost everyone in the hospital had been summoned before Yoo-seong made his call.
In the past, only the general public loved watching hunting operations.
For professional hunters, watching their colleagues working was not much of an attraction, even with hunters more skilled than they were.
Hunters already had so much work on their hands.
No matter how exceptional those hunters were, their colleagues didnât have the time to seek out whatever operations they were participating in.
Even if they had, they didnât have time to chase them around. However, today was different. This situation was different. The hunter participating in the operations was definitely someone worth spending that time on.
âLetâs go down!â
âHuh?! Are you not going to watch?â
âNo, thereâs no more room for us up there! Letâs drive up to a higher place nearby!â
Everyone was looking forward to seeing Yoo-seong in action. Did he really have the skills and abilities worthy of being called a Single?
Could he really face a ten-star or higher monster alone?
He had worked in the vicious Chinese industry. Was he really as formidable as they were? What was his Tech like? What about that legendary suit, which was rumored to be reinforced with unknown material?
Up until now, they had only seen him in action through action cam videos.
They wouldnât miss the chance to watch him with their own eyes if they could.
The exceptional hunter named Oh Yoo-seong. HoweverâŠ
âHuh?â
It turned out they didnât have to try so hard to see it.
Dudududu-
The noise from the sky distracted them. It was a helicopter. In fact, on closer look, it was actually a little smaller and flatter than a typical helicopter.
A total of six such sleek-looking machines were flying into the operation area.
âBroadcast stations?â
âCan it fly that low?â
In the case of large-scale operations, broadcasters who wanted to get coverage used to send in competitive dispatch filming teams for live broadcasting.
However, after the emergence of Shantiga last year, it had been difficult for the broadcast stations. Permits for helicopters were rarely approved, but this case was different. No one was manning the helicopters.
âItâs not a broadcasting station.â

People then realized to whom the helicopters belonged, and they started to murmur among themselves. They were unmanned drones for operation video shooting, belonging to the Special Defense Agency, special equipment deployed to record exceptional operations, those worthy of future research and study.
They were used to supplement the action cams used by hunters and provide a wider view of the action. However, no matter how large the operation was, the Defense Agency only deployed one to two units at most.
Since it was ultra-high-priced equipment, it was very risky for the Defense Agency to fly it at such a dangerously low altitude.
âUh? Hey, hey! Everyone, check the website!â
Beep-
As it turned out, the reason the drones had been mobilized in the first place was quite different from their original purpose.
âWebsite?â
âOn the main web page for hunters. â
-Multi-angle real-time streaming.-
-Hunter Oh Yoo-seong â Operation Live Stream released.-
-Anyone can watch freely after authentication.-
Beep-
Immediately, the broadcast began. However, the videoâs angle was not that of an action cam like everyone had expected.
Six high-resolution cameras were showing Oh Yoo-seong from different angles.
âIs this Oh Yoo-seong?â
âI think itâs him.â
The broadcast exceeded everyoneâs imagination.
âThat doesnât make sense!â

Feeling the presence of six major drones orbiting him from a certain distance, Yoo-seong checked the equipment he wore. This set of equipment was much more specialized than heâd used in the past.
He had contacted Yang Chang-guk and requested the mobilization of the drones. In addition, heâd also directly requested to use the state-owned equipment.
Yang Chang-guk had agreed to the livestream using the drones without hesitation. HoweverâŠ
âYou mean to use these? Really?â
Heâd trembled upon seeing the list of equipment that Yoo-seong wanted to use.
âIt canât be helped,â Yoo-seong thought to himself as he looked up at the crack.
This was what he wanted to show everyone. This was what he wanted to spread all over the world for the upcoming broadcast.
What he was about to do using this equipment would soon change the industry.
Jiiiiiing-!
The crack began to fluctuate. Yoo-seong prepared himself. He wanted to show his new equipment in earnest.
