The Cold Blooded Hunter: Seeker of Peace
167. Hunter's like a star in space
"We are old, but our fighting spirit surpasses those of us who are easier than us..." Tom said, "Don't take human determination lightly, Black Hunter Tang Liao..."
Tang Liao I saw that he just nodded, and he placed both his hands on the table, "And so, maybe it's too late, but I'm sorry for running away from my duties as a Hunter rank SSS."
"The obscurity of that duty keeps me overshadowed by guilt, as the younger of you struggle while the older of you keep quiet looking at everything, it's enough to make me feel guilty..."
"I revolutionized myself and made myself Emperor as a form of regret, with new strength, I might be able to defend the earth..."
Tang Liao's words sounded pitiful, and I must admit it, because my grandfather once said so when he lay on the bed.
"If I hadn't run away before, maybe the earth would have been free from the Monster invasion and had lived a peaceful life as before" he added.
Tang Liao's strength is indeed great, I admit that after seeing him manage to corner the Ice Emperor by himself, in contrast to the SS-rank Hunters and Tom who had to work together to corner the Ice Emperor.
That alone was enough to show that Tang Liao was not boasting, but it was true that he could change the world had he not run away.
"But your past strength with now is different, with your former strength, there should be no way you can behead the Ice Emperor alone..." William said as he glanced at Tom, "Tom alone released all his strength and it still can't finish off the Ice Emperor."
"You might think that the Ice Emperor is lucky because Canada is going through winter, but you are wrong..." Void Emperor said, "In any region, Ice will always lose because she is not good at regulating her Excessive Invisibility Energy."
"Tom almost killed him because Ice managed to control Canada in his hands, and we ended up having to retreat..." The Flame Emperor said, "At least, Ice will train his strength and make the territory of Canada his territory."
"We can't attack him right now, and the earth has truly become the battleground of the Emperors. You humans will only add to our predicament." added Flame Emperor, and made the faces of the people in the meeting room instantly ugly.
"This earth is ours, there's no way we're not meddling in that battle..." Tom said coldly, a black aura emanating from his body, "You've already said so twice..."
I could feel the pressure in the room getting heavier after Tom said so, I stood up then raised both my hands, "At a time, what should we talk about?"
Okay, maybe this question sounds silly in the ears of the SS rank Hunters, but not with me! I didn't know what was going on until I was sent here by my father! I need to know the reason!
No one answered...
"Well, calm down, we need to talk about what we're going to do next..." Yen smiled faintly, "How about we discuss about the unexpected help brought by Al?"
"It must be because of me..." John raised his hand, and Al who was sitting next to him nodded.
Marie I saw me nodding, "Al called me and asked for more help..."
After that the atmosphere was instantly quiet again...
"After seeing the other Hunter's struggle through the reports my subordinates made, I became more and more convinced of the words of our predecessor Sam Starson..." Leonard said, he then glanced at Tang Liao, "You must know Sam Starson..."
"History discusses it a lot as the world's first Hunter, holding the rank of the first SS Hunter rank, the founder of the world's strongest Hunter organization, StarSam, derived from his own name, and the highest military commando of his time. There was no Hunter who did not know him." said Tang Liao, "Even your sword is the sword he used to hold."
"The sword that became the world's first firearm, made from old technology, was named Star Sword." Tang Liao added.
"The StarSam archive still holds it, and I'm rotating it so you can remember it..." Tom pressed something on the table, and the big screen behind him aired something...

"I probably won't speak at length about freedom, I'm just an ordinary man who can't speak well even though I'm a general..."
"I do hold the highest military command in the world with the SS rank that I have, but everything would be of no use if I wasn't in the world..."
"This earth is only a small part of the vastness of the universe, we are not alone, it was successfully proven by the arrival of the Monsters to the earth..."
"We can't get freedom in just a year, not in ten years, fifty years, a hundred years, it takes so long that we can actually get freedom..."
"My fight will not be long, Star Sword will descend to the next generation, the generation after me will pass it down to the next generation, and so on..."
"I noticed, those military people are like stars in space, I assume the Hunters will be too..."
"Hunter is like a star in space, there is a star that shines brightly, there is also a young star that tries to show its light, then the bright starlight will slowly fade and then disappear, replaced by a young starlight..."
"Man does not live eternally, man will pass down his mission to the next generation and the next generation will continue."
"So does Hunter, when Hunter rank S or higher shines, young Hunter tries to show its rays, and when Hunter rank S or higher begins to lose its rays, the younger Hunter begins to lose its rays, then the young Hunter will appear and show its brightest rays then fight in the front line..."
"The other soldiers who are younger than me are starting to show their best abilities, and I'm sure that my mission will be continued by them..."
"The inhabitants of the earth must no longer quarrel, we must unite, not because we are both human, not because we are both breathing, but because we are living on the same earth!"
"Can we allow the earth to be forcibly taken over by the unknown?!"
"We must ignore our problems and unite against the strange creature! War between people will only destroy us! Just remember that!"
"Starsam I set up with the help of my friends with the aim of wanting to unite people who want to fight for the freedom of the human race!"
"The mission of StarSam is to give freedom to the human race and restore the earth in the first place before the strange creatures invade!"
"My mission will continue to reverberate in the hearts of all the brave soldiers around the world fighting for the freedom of the human race!"

I could feel the turmoil within me when I heard the cover of Sam Starson's thin-moustached, white-haired speech.
"Even if there are Monsters who want to coexist with you, will you still fight back?" asked Void Emperor, and it made the entire room quiet, no one could answer it, not even me...
"I-It..." Tom clenched his hand, "I don't know..."
