Conference

____________________________________

Flashes of camera lights and the chattering of the paparazzi, guest and reporters have filled the now crowded Conference room.

The Korean Hunter Association had Announce A Conference To be Broad Casted Live  Half Of The World.
Some might say maybe it because the current chairman would be retiring soon because of his unstable health, The chairman have been less active nowadays.

Other country's were already enjoying their time waiting for the Korea to lose their current chairman.

Despite the Korean region barely even hanging on a thread, the other countries were waiting for it to snap.

But definitely the Conference being held that been live broad casted had caught them off guard.

Heh, oh how Jinwoo would kick their sorry ass soon.

For the conference being held.

Maybe the reason is because of the rumored new 10th Korean S-rank being Go Gunhee's granddaughter.
The records and data of Go Gunhee granddaughter have been locked shut and no one and nor do anyone know who's korean 10th S rank or the rumored granddaughter.

But they know she was Very Active.
The rumored 10th was always in gates clearing every dungeon in Korea so far.

Before Then, The conference door have been shut open as the now noisy room have become utter silent in a second.

Everyone have been settled in their seat, preparing for themselves to what would come in the conference room. but somehow the tension have rise to an noticeable level.

It was because of the newcomer.

The mana leaking out of her was an understatement.

It was her.

Every step she took echoed through out the room as her shadow flick slightly in every movement she takes.

Some were nervous and frighten from the sudden change of atmosphere. That one person could cause this.

   "how strange"
---Eyeing, as the woman strodes towards infront the conference "her shadows flickers...", eyes glint with mischievment as he keep staring at the walking red flag under his glasses. Changing his seating position puting his elbow on the arm chair and resting his left cheek on his hand. "hmm..." A small smirk was plastered on the red head face.

They definitely didn't expect this.

Every step she took with her heels her raven hair that is tied in a long-high pony tail bounce as she continue to walk elegantly infront the room striding towards the lecture intfront. Wearing a business suit made from thin black, fabric that engulf her skinny yet leaned frame.
Her skirt was on waiste level as it swayed flawlessly.

Such a beautiful being but was to venomous to even approach like a sacred Rose.

<

p>Her face was stoic and cold, eyes that are somehow gray but somehow turn into a vivid purple.
Every click of her heels had bring a noticeable tension rising from one after another unbearable level.

Her movement stop in front of the lecture. She eyed everyone in the room noticing the tension and nervousness from each of the individual inside.

Jinwoo Sighs.

She made a grand entrance alright.

Before she could do her speech, jinwoo need to ease this tension.

From the cold stoic jinwoo.
To a Genuine Smile have been plastered on her face.

It caught everyone off guard as the tension and atmosphere settled down a bit.

Her smile make everyone fall over heels for her. Some may have think that she was scary at first but after she flick a one mile in her face and change the atmosphere around her to a cherry one makes the tension and atmosphere lessen.

"now... I know this conference was all a sudden but please don't be to nervous"

Jinwoo continue with her friendliness and the honey like smile had made everyone even the one who's been watching change their mind and judgement about her in a turn of 90° degrees.

Her beauty was not underestimated.  She was like a goddess.

"now that everyone, has calm down a bit."

Jinwoo chuckled slightly.

Making everyone and even the one who's watching the broadcast blush.

"let's start the conference, shall we?"

Her smile was beautiful. But the tone she give at the last sentence was unnoticed from the public. except a certain red head and a kitty caught on to that.

After a few words and blah, blah, blah.

"l, Go Jinwoo"

---"Oho?"
She really did caught his interest the first she step inside the room, his glasses hiding the crimson eyes eyeing at the female...Dangerously as if he's ready to launch at his prey.

<

p>"I, Go Jinwoo will be now the New Korea Hunter Association chairwoman"

That was unexpected.

Chapter Text

"haghh..."

A long sigh had came out of jinwoo lips as he settled in her chair leaning her back against it. Slightly rubbing her temples out of frustration from a long day of doing nothing but just sitting around doing work.

After jinwoo become the Chairwoman of the KHA paperwork and other duties as a Chairwoman have been coming nonstop preventing her from going into dungeons, stretching her back a bit she got back to work picking up her fountain pen while continue scribbling on the 302th sheet of paper, looking at her phone as the time is already 07:32PM she had already done eating dinner, but she still had a lot of work to do despite this is the 300th paper. Jinwoo just wanna ditch her work- but if jinwoo did try ditching her responsibility as the Chairwoman she'll know she's gonna get an earful of the former Chairman. knowing on how scary Go Gunhee get, just thinking about it make Jinwoo Shiver down her spine. (it was no different from her mother when finding out jinwoo been ditching her homework.) jinwoo rested her cheeks on her palm while fidgeting at the fountain pen she was holding staring at the window at the right corner of her room while looking at the pretty sunset.

How did it end up like this?

‘Wasn’t this supposed to be a vacation of some sort???’ Is what Jinwoo thought to himself. 

Just earlier that day, one of the fragments blabbered on about how tired Jinwoo had become. The others watched by their side as they together became increasingly worried as Jinwoo heed no attention to the topic at hand. They fidgeted with their fingers and awkwardly smiled, piping in here and there. So much for divine beings. The rulers’ stress had been raised at the realization of Jinwoo’s dulling personality. The mortal family died of his — in which had been offered to increase their lifespans or to live to immortality alongside Jinwoo — lived out their human lifespans and peacefully passed on. It had been quite a while since the last passing. The shadow army did what they could to console their liege who only seemed to be straying further away and shut into the castle walls of the home built upon an empty plain. He didn’t bother to watch over earth as closely as he did before, only sending his soldiers to investigate any strange happenings. 

Though Jinwoo had resigned to the fate of eternity, promising the rulers, they feared he would off himself when they weren’t looking or turn on them due to boredom (the absolute being was a prime example of their worst fears). The monarch didn’t do much really and in an outsider’s point of view, he’s just settled down and the rulers are overreacting. It didn't quite stop the rulers from disbelieving their own narrative. 

Action was what they thought he was missing in his life. No thrilling battles of war and no fussy children annoying him which was in fact, much harder to deal with than war. Together, using teamwork, (teamwork makes the dream work doesn't it?) they devised a plan. A plan to hopefully keep the monarch sane for maybe a few years at least and hopefully for a century. Eternity was a nice outcome too. 

Before setting off the grand scheme taking 100 years to devise, there was one last message the talking fragment of light left, "Don't worry Enjoy! We promise to take care of Earth. Enjoy your mortal life until we give you back eternity! If you like it so much, there's always an offer to stay or try again in 100 years."

That's how their little meeting went. The next thing he knew Jinwoo was Laying down on a soft white bed face to face what it look like it be a pink teddy bear- setting up from the bed Jinwoo felt a little strange-

He's chest felt more heavier then usually, his hair was longer to reaching at his waiste. Jinwoo went to the bathroom he's vision was a little blurry.

Staring at the wide ledge mirror in the bathroom jinwoo was Indeed shock to see how his appearance Drastically Change.

Two big water melons on her chest-(on what some of his shadow assume) long black raven hair that has spreading out everywhere looking like a bird nest. Hes frame was more smaller then usually wider hips. He's face was still identical but it more feminine and prettier- he's eyes that are sparkling a beautiful blue hue

"my liege you look so beautiful as a girl!"

Shock in disbelief, after a few seconds of staring. jinwoo just glare at the rulers as wtf is this??

"I'll have to question this later... "

"beru, igris I want you two to scout this world and get some useful information"

"Yes my liege!"

Both beru and igris shadowed away as jinwoo explore and observe her surroundings. The room was quite big and a little fancy to Jinwoos liking, the pink teddy that jinwoo found when she first woke up was toss aside the corner, her bed was place around a corner besides a window showing the view of Seoul the bed was medium size with pale white sheets,fluffy pillows. A desk at the right corner there was a balcony witch jinwoo open. As the cold air hit her. The view of Seoul,
Jinwoo Open her cabinet as she was greeted with girly clothes- not to her liking because he was originally a guy anyways.

This wasn't her room.

Jinwoo then felt a familiar mana coming from down stairs at it reach to her door. Before she know it a knock was heard at her door.

"Jinwoo-yah, are you awake now?"

Jinwoo knows that voice. She hesitatedly sent to the door as she grab the door knob, twisting it slightly revealing that she thought was to be dead.

Go Gunhee.

"Jinwoo-yah you should wake up more early!"

Shock to see the once to be dead chairman Go Gunhee was now standing in front of her eyes.

"My Liege, The Information you have requested iS that 8 years has passed since the first gate got on earth and awaken people that were given, it is quite similar to you're own dimension my liege."

Jinwoo dooze off from that realizing that this dimension was indeed Hers But a few changes has been place.

"hm? Jinwoo are you okay? You seem like to be not in yourself today." the Chairman, Go Gunhee had asked the Raven Hair girl as jinwoo snap out of her thoughts "y-yeah I'm okay nothing need to worry at all." Jinwoo exclaimed as she needs to be more careful knowing that this dimension iS still similar to her previous one but had some changes in it. "hmm, if you say so now let's get breakfast first."

The New Beggining

____________________________________

It was been a few days now since Jinwoo Have been Dump into this Universe, and being transfigured into a girl making things worse to be exact, for the next couple of days (she was secretly going into dungeons behind Go Gun-Hee's back) Jinwoo found out that she was a Granddaughter Of Go Gun-Hee, and an illegitimate child, Jinwoo parents in this Universe had never cared for her since birth, the dad was a drunkard and the mother would always do drugs, one day the parents got caught and since then jinwoo had no place to go, and her only relative she's close with is Go Gun-Hee himself, Gun-Hee had taken jinwoo under he's wings after he filled her parents to the court, and after living with the Chairman of Korea, Go Jinwoo, had live a decent life. She wasn't able to go to school (only homeschool) but her life was peaceful.

Speaking of parents and family, Her family doesn't exist in this world.

But what were the Rulers Thinking anyways, She had already gone through the Chalice Of Rebirth and staying in the chaos realm more then an eternity, now they wanted her to re-do all of her sacrifices, but let alone as a female.

Not like Jinwoo mind though, he is willing to kill all the monarchs again, and again if that will satisfy her boredom, life as a Immortal was boring, There was no thrill in her life In the aftermath,

But that doesn't mean she's grateful on what the rulers did, heck they thought she would willingly do the same thing all over again as before but in a Female Version of himself, They thought dumping him in this Universe will fix he's boredom? (The rulers iS willing to sacrifice a Universe just to keep the shadow monarch sane)

Yes And No,

Sighing at the Rulers Antics (well, at least they give her a little bit of thrill in her Immortal life) Jinwoo took a sip of her warm coffeeand take a small bite at her pancakes. It was Around seven in the morning she currently having breakfast like any normal human would do, jinwoo have been taking a small glance at Go Gun-Hee who was setting right in front of her across the countertop, reading a news paper in hand as he took a sip on hes mug using his other hand, They were currently having breakfast together, Jinwoo stuff her cheeks with pancakes as the flavor of the blue berries mix with syrup melts in her small mouth. 'This taste good'

Go Gun-Hee had finally look up from he's newspaper as he flashes Jinwoo a random a warm smile. She somehow felt uneasy around Go Gun-Hee. The warm soft smiles he give her just make Jinwoo,  complicated. It was awfully and painfully familiar, she hadn't felt this more then an eternity. And the sweet fatherly voice he gives everytime Gun-Hee tried to hold a conversation with her, (Keyword: Try) Jinwoo have been avoiding Go Gun-Hee lately. It's not like he hated the kind hearted old man, it's just that the lingering feelings she feels for her Grandfather was awfully familiar and she couldn't exactly pointed it out, the feeling was something that she haven't felt in an eternity, and it make her uncomfortable  about it. It feels foreign to her,

they had a few Tiny conversation here and there for the past few days and Gun-Hee knows Jinwoo was avoiding him lately, Maybe she just needed some space,

Or the theory that has been in Gun-Hee's mind about Jinwoo being related to some Hunter Association matters, (stealing gates from other guilds lol)

"Jinwoo-yah.."

Gun-Hee had called upon jinwoo as he close he's news paper in hand, Jinwoo looks up from her phone when she got called

"Yes, Grandfather" Jinwoo said politely as she look straight in the eye of Go Gun-Hee 'is this how the female version of me.. address her grandfather?' But her tone was emotionless.

'My liege you said that the fragment memories of the female version of you is very polite, and mature I assure you my liege you are close!'

Beru said proudly at that,

Go Gun-Hee look blankly at Jinwoo for a few second before chuckling, putting aside he's newspaper the now awkward atmosphere had gotten worse.

Jinwoo may look calm but she's screaming inside.

"You know" Jinwoo quickly look up from her lap as Gun-Hee continue to speak. "You've been acting pretty strange lately, and you've been extra colder to me then usual." Gun-Hee eyes glint, somewhat scream danger.

Jinwoo look at him. "Oh, am I? Well, I apologize for that it's just I'm not feeling well this past few days" jinwoo hum at that. She guess Go Gun-Hee, had finally caught on. It was to be expected, but it was to early, and since she got a slight Nerf from the rulers (who knows when,) before she was put here. Jinwoo controlling her mana wasn't enough to avoid Go Gun-Hee's suspicion.

The old man already know, or been already suspicious from the start, when she got here. Gun-Hee have been observing Jinwoo every movement since that day, 'there's no doubt he know or not.' She'd been sneaking into dungeons after dungeons, on those past couple of days, while Gun-Hee was at work.

Gun-Hee just smiled, He already knows.

"Well beside that, I got alot of complains from the other guilds lately,"

Well there's that.

"Oh really? That must be tiring," Jinwoo said to Gun-Hee. 'And it's not (it is) my problem'

Yes, tiring indeed. Gun-Hee continue to smile at Jinwoo, dangerously.

"Jinwoo-Yah, my health have been very unstable lately. And all this trouble making things worse." Why can't he just say it infront of her face, he already know who but Gun-Hee wasn't sure. There was a possibility that jinwoo have awakened, Jinwoo in this Universe hadn't awakened and not awaken mean she's just a civilian, that is related to the Korean Hunter Association Chairman. now that she possessed this body, and had awakened, there's no doubt she'll be taking that role very soon.

Jinwoo just sat there nervously, she already expected this to happen sooner or later after all, why was she nervous in the first place?

Perhaps due to Gun-Hee being related to the Fragment Of Brilliant Light (most likely Rulers)

"Hm, let's talk another time. It's already seven o'clock and I still have work to do as the chairman hahah!" Gun-Hee laugh before looking at he's watch before satting up

____________________________________

"Jinwoo I'm about to go off to the Association now, make sure to clean the house and don't skip lunch okay? I'll be back late today since there's some trouble with the Association" Gun-Hee said as the loving and caring grandpapa he is,

Jinwoo flashes a soft smile at that,

Woo Jin-Chul,

who is Go Gun-Hee right hand, have blush at the beautiful black hair maiden. Only a few people from the association knows about Gun-Hee grand daughter and Jin-chul was one of the lucky few people,

He normally wouldn't feel like this, but ever since he meet the chairman grand daughter, he felt emotions he wasn't suppose to feel. And haven't felt in years.

Was this what people called love at first sight?

Jin-Chul had open the doors for Gun-Hee as he got at the front seat of the black car, (he could feel Gun-Hee's staring right through he's soul, and he could imagine Gun-Hee creepy smile right at him) even if he's the Chairman must trusted worker, he wouldn't want anyone taking away he's grand daughter

But before could the black car departed, the windows and slide down as revealing Gun-Hee "oh and also,"

"Do me a favor and avoid causing trouble if possible"

And then the car window roled back up as the black car that Gun-Hee was in finally left.

Jinwoo caught a heavy sigh, just thinking that Go Gun-Hee has finally caught on at her actions but wouldn't directly say it to her face. "Causing trouble would be unavoidable today, anyways." Or that what she thought.

She was planning on stealing a D-Rank Gate before any other guilds get there hands on it first anyways.

"Welp it's about time that calamity of a bastard nest will spawn today, we need to prepare. Igris, go to the construction site where the location of the gate would spawn, just tell me when it finally appear,"

Jinwoo head off inside the house as she stop mid way at the entrance 'okay, mission I'

"Operation:General Cleaning"

Jinwoo shadows scattered all over the the house as she let her shadows do all the work.

Life was good.

Its already been a few hours has past, to be exactly the whole day. Igris haven't reported yet that the double dungeon haven't spawned, it was already dawn.

Was she wrong about it?

She was sure it was today or so,

"Let's just wait till midnight then" Jinwoo says as she let igris continue to look out for the Gate to Appear.

Jinwoo wasn't gotten use to her female body yet, (she's making progress though) she shift slightly on the soft sofa, Jinwoo was reading a few articles and post, and news on the internet at her laptop. About Hunters and S-ranks ect,

The Body was all new to her, Jinwoo was more light weighted and slimmer, (with only a few muscles) and she was slightly shorter now, well her height is still tall but she was mostly around Jong-In's height, (or maybe shorter) and when ever jinwoo look at her face she couldn't belive this was her, as a female. Soft plump kissable lips, rosy cheeks, and her vivid fox like purple eyes. She look utterly beautiful and breath taking (if looks can kill you) but compare to jinwoo original body as a male, it was More taller, leaned and broad. Not to mention more powerful, she didn't meant that the female her was weak, it's just that this body is to fragile to hold the power of a tank and fighter, (her body mostly work with being a Assassin or mage since she's nimble and light weighted) but no matter how much she worked out like crazy, jinwoo only gained a few muscles, and her height wasn't changing, it might be due to her being a girl.
She'll make it work out.

Jinwoo keeps scrolling through twitter, a few articles and some random post about hunters, it all just people thirsting over S-rank hunters with they're Power and Body-

____________________________________

"Bingo..."

Jinwoo figure stand on top of an unfinished Construction Building, The double dungeon gate had finally appeared, Jinwoo eyes down at the blue mass portal, the mana intimidating from it seem like its only a D-rank gate or above,

But that's only a cover up.

Jinwoo weared a greenish hoodie with a black turtle neck underneath. Her camo pants fitting it well,

Thankfully, Jinwoo had weared a bra so she doesn't need to worry about her balloons jumping out when she's fighting mid air ect-

Jinwoo had recalled the awkward and embarrassing moment that occurred recently between her and her general shadow soldier igris, before they wen to the construction site,

Igris had volunteered to help jinwoo with her bra straps, seeing on how her Queen was struggling to connect the straps together and even breaking the 6th bra-
Jinwoo insisted it at first but eventually give in since she broke to many piece of her clothing out of frustration. To jinwoo embarrassment, Jinwoo blush a soft bright red as Igris got behind her and slowly put the two clasp together, carefully not shredding the fabric, jinwoo blush had slowly creep down to her neck-
The moonlight had reflect them from the window as jinwoo stand in front of the wide ledge mirror eyeing igris that's is behind her, the black purple like soldier had done finishing jinwoo bra, Jinwoo then got dress with her upper wear (with the help of beru choosing) and thanking igris for helping, and igris just nodded before returning to her shadow,

Jinwoo shake away her thought at that event that happen recently, (jinwoo suddenly feels emotion, maybe it's because she possessed the mind and body of a girl? Ever since she got a black heart she have to give up her humanity, but why do she feels emotion, whatever the Rulers plan where, ) Jinwoo then look at her phone, it was around 01:05AM 'Alright', she just needed to get back before five.

Without hesitation Jinwoo was already standing in front of the swirling blue gate, she had taken a few step closer before going inside the gate, she let the swirling blue mass swallow and devour her as a familiar feeling of excitement and eagerly want things to get started, (she'd been going into random gates in Korea but none of them had satisfy her thrill and a good fight, maybe this one will bring her a challenge)

Jinwoo Plastered a grin on her beautiful features as her eyes glowed purple mixture of gold with mana, (she was dangerous and beautiful at the same time, very alluring)

And one thing comes to jinwoo mind,

"this was going to be fun,"
