Returnee’s Life Report - Chapter 71
Without hesitation, Raul rushed towards the Godfather. He jumped and landed on the bare floor where the Godfather had been standing just a moment ago. His right foot touched land, and his muscles immediately started moving.
As Raul rushed towards him, the Godfather knew that this blow would be quite dangerous. Surprisingly, he decided to counter Raul’s attack, immediately bringing out the sword he had.
As Raul hit the Godfather, he felt something odd, like the feeling he had when he was battling for a UFC title match. This attack would take him down, possibly even kill him. That was the feeling he had, but he still went for it.
He tilted his body and attacked. The Godfather was shoved back by Raul’s fist, and he collided with the wall.
Meanwhile, Raul looked down at his chest. It was bleeding.
The Godfather’s sword was dripping with blood—Raul’s blood.
Raul exclaimed, astonished. “What are you?!”
The Godfather was also bleeding. He sighed.
“I didn’t expect you to be able to dodge that.”

“I did, but not completely. It hurts like a bitch.”
“But your face is calm.”
Raul smirked. “That’s how champions are. Of course, you won’t get it.”
His chest had been stabbed, but he was still standing.
Raul looked at the sword the Godfather was holding. It looked like a Japanese Katana. When and from where did he get that? Was it like Ho’s weapon? Come to think of it, Kim So-Eun’s Excalibur had similar abilities.
That means that his weapon has a similar rank as those weapons.
What was this guy?
Meanwhile, the Godfather looked at him and asked.
“Will you run away? I don’t want to kill you.”

Raul smiled. He never ran away from something, especially not from fights. In fact, it was perfect timing.
“Come over.”
“…….”
“You asked me to run away. I’ll answer your question, so come closer.”
The Godfather laughed again.
“You’re not as bad as I thought.”
However, his condition was not looking good as well. He had received some severe injuries that were hurting a lot.
After a moment, Raul rushed towards him again. The Godfather held up his sword, but he felt that someone was watching over him. Immediately, he put his sword back, turned, and ran away.
“Where the hell are you going?!”

The Godfather looked around. People were starting to crowd around, and Sophie was controlling them. He sighed before making eye contact with her.
“I’ll be waiting for your answer. Think carefully.”
Raul laughed and asked him.
“Are you running away?”
“Yes.”
Raul sensed that something was not right. Suddenly, a portal was formed near the Godfather.
“It was nice to meet both of you.”
He threw himself to the portal and disappeared.
Raul watched him disappear, then stumbled and fell to the floor. Sophie immediately ran to him.

Was he injured or dead?
Sophie was worried, but as she knelt down beside him, she could see that he was smiling.
Wow.
“You can smile now?”
“I can. Today is the day that my ability was cracked, and it even happened twice.”
“……”
Sophie looked worriedly at Raul, and he continued smiling.
“Why? Do you think I’m charming now?”
“Do you consider yourself charming?”

“Yes.”
“……”
“Why?”
“…Thank you.”
Raul grinned wider.
Right now, both of their bodies were covered with dust and dirt.
“If you want to thank me, shall we take a bath together?”
Sophie, as if she had just heard something absurd, laughed as she used her healing skills to cure him.
Raul asked, “What was the amount of his power?”

“Do you really want to know?”
“Yes.”
She sighed and opened her mouth.
“Sixty million.”
“That’s his current power?”
“…Yes.”
Ironically, Raul laughed. It was the only thing he could do.
Lee Ho was right.
The man had tried to approach Sophie, and he was as strong as Lee Ho. He had gotten all of it correctly.

“Things are getting interesting.”
***
I folded my fingers several times.
Yoo Ee-Na, after watching my hands carefully, carefully said a number.
“You did it four times.”
“Nope, it was three.”
“…….”
“I think you should train more.”
We were doing the same training process to teach Ee-Na how to use her ability. I had noticed that her ‘acceleration’ skill applied to her weapons as well, like her bullets when she shot a gun, so I ordered her to train that ability for at least four hours a day. I told her to practice that much so that she could get used to her ability, and that was why we were repeating this same training process.

Suddenly, something made me frown.
“What’s wrong?”
“There is suddenly a lot of people causing a lot of noise.”
“…What?”
“It’s nothing.”
She really seemed to be puzzled, so I just smiled and changed the topic.
“You know that adults should not join the kids’ fights.”
“…What do you mean?”
“It’s nothing. Someone just got away.”

“…What’s happening?”
“Nothing.”
I laughed. Raul had just fought with someone, and that person had run away, heading to the south. I asked Yoo Ee-Na.
“What’s in the south of this country?”
“France, of course.”
“What’s next to it?”
“You mean next to France?”
“Yes.”
“On the west, there’s the Mediterranean Sea. On the east, there’s Switzerland.”

I shrugged. I suppose that guy lived in Switzerland.
I stood up.
“Where are you going?”
“I’m going to finish the TV show I was watching.”
Ee-Na smiled, and I left her some final instructions.
“Practice that skill for two more hours and then get some sleep.”
“I will.”
And with that, I went and finished my tv show.
As the credits were rolling, I noticed that the weather was cold. It was June, but it was cold outside.

That was quite strange.

Lee Ho was in his office.
He put his smartwatch on the desk. He has been talking with Raul, and he laughed. He did expect that they would approach Sophie. She had been using her ability to help the world, and thanks to her, most of the gates were now cleared.
She had devoted herself to help voluntarily, but as soon as she unlocked the ability to see potential power, they tried to recruit her.
Like Raul had said, the person who had Sophie could rule the world.
Ho closed his eyes. Even if his words were true, it didn’t matter.
The gates wouldn’t last forever, and the Hunters’ strength levels were increasing. Ho would eliminate the gates; he was certain of that. As he fought with stronger foes, he became stronger as well.
Everyone knew that Ho used his life energy to pay for his ability. He was literally devoting his life to clear the gates.

Meanwhile, the Godfather’s words were quite reasonable.
Living in another world did sound great to them. Awakeners and ordinary people were different. If they planned to live in another world, the government would help them. They had asked Sophie to become a member, and that’s all they asked. They wouldn’t do anything or demand anything else from her.
Who could refuse that offer? It wouldn’t even be a small burden.
He was able to gather a lot of people this way.
Then what was his ability? Was he even a unique skill holder?
His sword had broken Raul’s barrier. He didn’t even use an ability to do that. Even while fighting with Shilla, the Godfather never showed his abilities, but it was reasonable to think that he was a unique skill holder.
Raul had power amounting to fifty-one million. The Godfather had sixty million.
Lee Ho had also recently asked Sophie about his power. She said that a question mark was the only thing she could see. Two months ago, he had power amounting to forty-seven million.
Lee Ho laughed like a maniac.

Until now, he didn’t understand it. He thought that he was some sort of failure.
He opened his eyes and placed his glasses on the desk, thinking of the movie he had watched a while ago. The title of it was The Truman Show, and he kind of felt like he was Truman.
Lee Ho realized how much they had enlarged their power. He noticed the hidden history of the world, and he was the first one to know about it.
Among the other SS-rated Hunters who had visited the conference, how many of them were members of the anti-Hunter organization?
Excluding Ho, Raul, and Sophie, there were nine other members. The worst-case scenario was that all nine of them were members of the organization.
It was also more likely for the government to support them.
Ho sighed.
He knew that the information he was able to collect was just scratching the surface, but he had unearthed something much larger than he had thought. There’s even a possibility that the entire world is his enemy. he clenched his fists.
He was outraged. He had never felt this upset before. He was the only one who seemed to be doing the job, and that allowed him to make such progress. But he was just one person. He wouldn’t even know if someone at the bank was taking advantage of him.

Ho was a foolish volunteer. Those in the shadows were greedy people who were using masks to hide their true intentions and were laughing behind his back. Even if his companions are killed, when he clears the gates, they will laugh.
He gritted his teeth, and there was a sudden knock on the door. If it hadn’t been for the knocking, he would have crashed the desk.
“Come in.”
It was Hong Jong-Geun, who seemed puzzled.
“You’re smiling. Did something exciting happen to you?”
Ho checked the mirror with a start. He was indeed smiling.
He turned to Jong-Geun and asked, “How long has the president of Hunter Authority been holding his position?”
“You mean Bartolomeu Diaz? He has been president for eight years.”
He was the one who managed the gates around the world. Hunters get stronger while fighting in the gate; that was how Ho and Raul got stronger. The process must be the same for the Godfather. That meant that the Hunter Authority was providing gates to the Godfather secretly.
Ho was still smiling.
“Mr. Hong.”
“Yes, sir.”
“We need to kill Bartolomeu Diaz.”
