My Range is One Million

#1

Teuk… Swoosh!

A rain shower of arrows filled the sky.

— What are you doing? Snap out of it.

It was the first time where his arrows seemed to miss its marks but he also got his focus back after the spirit spoke.

— Oh, I was just thinking about the skill.

— Why?

He didn't know how he was going to fight against a level 9 monster.

— It's hard to explain.

Swoosh…

He went on until his hands had gone numb and after a little rest, he pulled the string once again so he could resume his relentless attacks.

Kwang!

A giant explosion came out of nowhere and the arrow disappeared in the sky.

— Did you just use a skill?

— No.

Jaehwang replied. They looked ahead and saw the soldiers running towards their safety. They must have been running because of him and one of them had an arrow sticking out of his head.

— It's strange, there's something else I've been thinking about more than training these days.

— What is it?

— There's a skill that the others have been learning. You'll know about it soon. The skill that I earned is stronger than that so I don't think I have anything to worry about.

— Right, you can handle them just fine.

The spirit replied.

"There's a lot of people over there," Jaehwang said. "Ah… I get it now."

After taking a moment to think, he finally realized something. Everything made perfect sense.

— They're not going to show us a skill, they're going to show the skill's seed and share it amongst each other…

Pong!

"I didn't think much of it before… We have to stop them as soon as possible. They haven't finished the process yet, right? Jaehwang understood why he didn't see anything like that in the skill status window. Now he had to find out how to stop it in time.

It was a skill that they made on their own. He then realized that he had to be careful about what he said.

Pongg!

— My guess is right, isn't it?

Jaehwang asked.

— Huh? You're asking me? Wow, you're not confident in your guess? That's new.

The spirit said with a shocked tone.

— No, it's just… You'd always realize it first before I do, right?

— I don't know. Skill? Strength? You're the expert at those things.

— Fine.

Jaehwang calmly replied. Now that the spirit had helped him take that first step, he was now more confident in his own thoughts.

— What now…

The spirit asked. Now that he was more comfortable in his decisions, it didn't take much from him to think up a solution.

— Let's get back to reality. They're almost here.

— Alright.

Jaehwang said in agreement. They're coming, he could feel the ground vibrating because of their footsteps.

"Come on," Jaehwang said and something flew towards the nearby boulder and made it explode in an instant, leaving a thick could of dust that covered the area.

"Those guys are really noisy," Jaehwang mumbled. At this rate, if they were able to combine their skills, they would be able to at least hunt a seven or an eight-tier monster.

"Okay, it looks like things could go well if we keep going like this." Jaehwang knew the reason why they were looking for him. He had been driven way over his limit. He had become a powerful warrior.

Someone then came in, he was also wearing his 'Overpower' set of armor.

"Let's do this," he said.

He started to feel a bit nervous. Jaehwang then reached out his hand, saying, "Come on, let's fight."

"Ggrrraghh!" The enemy's commander, David, then charged towards Jaehwang.

The other soldiers stood by and watched them closely.

"Y-You're crazy!"

"Stay here!" The commander's assistant said.

"Is he trying to kill himself?!"

"I have an idea," a soldier said.

Obviously, it seemed as if he didn't understand common sense. He couldn't believe what he was seeing. He was wearing an expensive armor set with a simple t-shirt and tights as undergarments.

Clearly, he felt very confident that he could defeat a 9th tier monster. His shiny gold set was very showy and slippery for an armor.

However, no matter what happened, he knew that it was a fight that he brought onto himself.

He had no plans of backing down. Everyone were already counting on him and they all looked forward to their fight.

'Maybe things will turn out better if I use more short-distance attacks.' He thought to himself as he went over through the battle plan in his head. It seemed that everything would go smoothly for him.

But, there was one thing that he had to do. He needed to get rid of his armor to be able to run faster but that decision wasn't easy. He would put himself in danger if he does so and he could not just simply rely on his experience on reading those monsters to survive.

Occasionally, hunters would memorize the monster's pattern and in most cases, it didn't end well for them. He never noticed how useless it was but then, he soon realized that raids can never be treated as games. He had to take things more seriously.

Soon, he began to observe the monsters on his own and noticed their patterns. However, it wasn't easy. Although it was a long and hard journey, he gained more and more experience as a hunter.

As he was lost in his thoughts, he heard a loud noise.

Kwanggg!!!

He felt the ground vibrate.

"W-What was that!"

"What's that!" The commander said.

"What kind of skill is that?"

"How am I supposed to know?!"

"Darn! I can't even see where it's coming from!"

They looked around, trying to see what was going on but they couldn't see anything.

Swoosh! Pongg! Swoosh!

Something flew by them but they couldn't identify what it was since it was too fast. They looked at the direction they came from to see who or what it could be but they still couldn't see anything.

"Ugh!" He got frustrated as he tried to think about what was going on. He used his special detection skill and that's when he finally caught a glimpse of his enemy.

"He's stronger than me."

At that moment, he was able to admit the truth. It was clear to see that his power was much stronger than his.

Then… finally, he was able to see his face…

"Its… It's that level 9 hunter…" The commander said and all of the soldiers turned silent. They realized who he was in that moment as well.

It really was him. The level 9 hunter…

A Level 9 Monster?, The end.
