The Cold Blooded Hunter: Seeker of Peace
151. Tense and hot room
The atmosphere of the room was gripping, everyone looked down blankly.
"Now the heavens are gone, will our lives end? How are we gonna tell Chairman Frans?" Vina clenched her hand, "If Carroline hadn't pulled me away, I would have pulled Heaven's hand towards the dining area."
"I'm sorry, but I had to..." Carroline hit the floor, "If I hadn't run off..."
"You are only so many ifs!" Rei hit the floor and stood up, "We don't know what the fate of the Sky is!"
"Carroline, you should have known that your father would have worked on things to bring Heaven back..." Dusk glanced at Carroline, "Well, we trust the heavens to the Hunter organization, we who now won't be able to help much..."
Andhika kept stirring her tea, she said nothing. He lifted his face and looked at Dusk, "You said that the sky has been like that for a long time, right? How about you tell me again?"
Dusk looked at Andhika, "Okay..."

The atmosphere of the StarSam headquarters instantly turned tense, dozens of heavy weapons directed towards a single creature with a body shrouded in flames that stood up while carrying a single human.
"Explain why you came here!"
"Are you planning to destroy this place?!"
The creature that was enveloped in flames was named Flame Emperor, and the human he had brought was Heaven.
"I've said it, I came in peace to deliver the goods to Tom, that's all." The Flame Emperor sighed, "Aren't you guys willing to live? I can kill you if you don't get out of the way."
"Our job is to kill the Monster and we won't let you roam free on earth!"
"Pull your weapons!" a thunderous voice rang out, and everyone instantly stared, while the Flame Emperor smiled.
"Pull your weapons! He is a safe monster! It will not kill a human!" someone emerged from the Hunter crowd.
The man was large in stature, and in both hands wore red iron gloves. It was Tom Cage.
He received a report that a Monster covered in flames had entered the city, and he confirmed that what he heard was true, and when he found out that the Flame Emperor had come to his headquarters, he immediately walked out of his room to meet the Monster directly.
"Tom, I'm returning this boy..." The Flame Emperor approached Tom, and it appeared that their height was equivalent, both two meters high...
"I also said, sorry if I'm late to return it, Canada is really messed up, you can't interfere in our affairs." said Flame Emperor, "The four Emperor's rampage will not be able to be overcome."
"Sorry, but we have many powerful Hunters who can overcome Monsters, even eliminating God is no big deal." said Tom, "Once again, thank you..."
He raised his hand, received the unmoving but still breathing Sky body from the hands of the Flame Emperor, and after returning the Sky, received the, The Flame Emperor glanced at the Sky for a moment before he summoned Ashroll again then left that place.
Tom looked at him with a serious face, what he saw earlier was not the envoy of the Flame Emperor, but the Flame Emperor himself! Why would...
"Sky!" Joko approached and he checked the Sky, "It looks like he's fine!"
"But we have to take him to the treatment room, his shirt looks blood red, he might be seriously injured!" Estherosa approached and examined the sky, "Luckily she survived!"
Tom shook his head and turned around, "I'll take him to the treatment room!"
He looked at one Hunter and said, "Command the others to go back on alert! The raid will continue!"

Treatment room...
"Mrs. Joko, how's the sky?!" Carroline asked in a panicked-sounding tone, while the others were breathing irregularly.
"Still examined, now you must pray only the best for him..." Joko patted Carroline on the shoulder, "And you should believe that the sky is fine..."
"The problem is, he always acts arbitrarily! How could we not be anxious about that human condition?!" Andhika yells.
"Yes too..." Joko raised her hand from Carroline's shoulder, "What happened exactly?"
Joko turned around and faced the door, but her eyes glanced back, "You can't go in, just let me come in and look at her."
Rei intended to enter, but the sight of Joko's sharp glances made him undo his intentions.
Joko opened the door and entered, when she was already inside, the heat immediately greeted her.
"Mrs. Yoko! Help us!" some medicine-savvy hunters exclaimed, "We can't touch it! The body is too hot!"
Joko raised her eyebrows, "What do you mean?!"
He came closer and sure enough, the more he approached the bed-ridden Sky, the more the pressure and the heat grew stronger, making him have to take a deep breath and hold it.
"What does this mean? Why does the sky emit this heat?"
He knew that an ordinary human would not be able to do so, even a Hunter of Tom's class would not be able to let go of such a hot air, most likely only to let go of an extremely powerful intimidating air, he said, which can make anyone vibrate as soon as they see it.
What I am currently seeing is not something that ordinary humans or Hunters can do, Joko said.
Could it be that the strength of the Flame Emperor had already risen within his body? He stroked his chin.
He turned around and opened the door, "Rosa, get in here! I need your endurance!"
Esterosa turned around, while the other children exchanged lyrics, with their heads filled with questions.
"This time I give you permission..." Joko said again, "You can come in..."
Everyone nodded quickly, and Esterosa along with four small children walked into the room, following Joko.

The atmosphere in the room did not decrease in the slightest, even the temperature felt hotter than Joko last remembered.
"Damn, what's going on?" The other Hunters were getting more and more confused, none of them dared to approach the Heavens.
"This air..." Esterosa stared at the Sky, "Did this heat come from the Sky?"
"Yes, but I don't know why." Joko folded her hands, "There's only one thing I think about, the Fire Emperor's strength is already active in his body."
The Hunter-Hunters who did not understand him were silent, while Esterosa had a serious face.
"Stuck in Canada may have kept his powers active, and upon his return, the uncontrollable force of fire within his body overflowed and made the room temperature hot..." Joko explained, "Well, that's more or less what I can explain."
"So back to the main topic..." Estherosa shook her hand, "What did you tell me to come here for?"
"Help me examine his body, whether the wounds he received were severe or not..." Joko pointed at the Sky, "I myself will not be able to."
Esterosa looked at the Sky, and her eyes widened looking at the Sky's clothes which looked as red as blood, "Oh, I understand..."
Both of them approached the Sky, and slowly sweat poured down their faces, when it was near the Sky, Estherosa felt moved to a different place, as well as the Sky.
"Don't... Disturb... The king..." A voice rang out, and Esterosa and Joko stared into the dark room, where they were moved.
Before long, a face they did not recognize appeared, and he said again, "Don't... Disturb... Raja... We're..."
Seeing that, both of them trembled, sweat pouring down all over their bodies, only one thing they felt when they saw that face...
Very strong anger...
