The Cold Blooded Hunter: Seeker of Peace
57. Joko Taru's Regret
"Joko, put this on..." Alex gave me a pair of glasses with black lenses, "To make it easier for you to see the situation ahead."
Joko picked it up and put it on, she saw her gaze turn green and she could see the road ahead without even a light.
"Infrared, right?" joko asked and then drove the bike faster, "Better than before..."
"My reason for giving it was because I saw a wolf monster approaching..."
And the atmosphere was instantly silent as Alex said so...
"Arrghhh! It's dangerous to play Hunter!!!"
Alex put up his pointless position, while Joko had already pulled the gas even faster.
"Yes, we're going to get close to the wolf monster, and get your weapons ready." said Alex and he pulled a knife and a gun, "We're going to fight blatantly here..."
Usually, Joko does that on the way to RedWhite in Indonesia first, and he understands it.
"OK..." Joko nodded and before long, the two of them could see the wolf pack approaching, with one large wolf.
"Rank A, I guess..." Alex muttered and he was half-standing, "Put down the bike, Joko..."
Joko nods and he pulls the brakes a little slowly, until the two are confronted by the wolf horde Alex is referring to.
He stopped the bike and before long, Alex jumped forward while pulling out his knife, maybe it could be called a dagger huh?
Alex kept his gun and pulled the other, longer dagger and then moved forward.
Joko clucked and he pulled the Dragon Fang Dagger and the dagger he had brought from Indonesia then pulled the key of his bike and stuffed it into his suit pocket.
He intended to advance, but he saw the black prowess among the horde.
Joko trembled and she muttered, "What the hell is that?"
Too soon, that's all Joko thinks, and he can't keep up with Alex's one-to-do-dozen moves. If he thinks about it, he won't be able to do what Alex is doing right now.
"My strength is lacking..." Joko muttered again and she grasped the Dragon Fang Dagger tighter, "If I were as strong as Tom Cage and as fast as Alex Curran, maybe I could save Ayu and Bintang..."
Yes, his biggest regret is not being able to protect the two men from the destruction of Surabaya six months ago due to the lack of strength he has.
Although he had the position of Colonel, one of the dozens of rank S owned by Indonesia, and was nicknamed the mainstay Assassin of Indonesia, if he was hit by the ruins of the building at the time of the destruction of his residence, he will not be able to protect the city he lives in.
"Damn..." The only reason he still continued walking at this moment was that he wanted to find the figure that sent the Monster to his city and finish him off, if possible he wanted to slaughter all the Monsters so that he could forget his regrets.
But, he had to realize that behind the weak Monsters on earth right now, there were over ten Monsters nicknamed God, and two Monsters nicknamed Emperor, there were more than ten, A monster stronger than God.
"Joko! Your life and your child are determined by this fight! If you continue to lament your incompetence, then you will not be able to forget your regrets!" alex exclaims and he shoots one wolf in the forehead, "So, go ahead and face the world!"
Joko wakes up, and she puts up her position, "Yes, you're right..."
He took his breath and turned around, seeing some big tigers coming along with some even bigger tigers.
"Yes, I am the Red Claw, and a man..." Joko pressed the button and the blades of both daggers lit up brightly in the middle of the darkness of the night, "The Night Dagger's Day..."
He moved quickly and spun around while continuously swinging his two daggers, slashing the neck of every tiger that came at the full speed he had.
The longer he swung the Dragon Fang Dagger, he felt that the dagger was getting lighter, and he kept one of his daggers and focused on wearing the current Dragon Fang Dagger.
"Three B rank tigers, huh? I can..." Joko muttered and he pulled out his dagger.
"Now!" someone shouted and he threw a stone forward, hitting Joko's back head.
Joko did not budge and he pulled his gun and moved forward quickly, firing shots after shots.
When he was already in front of the three big tigers, he swung the Dragon Fang Dagger and cut the neck vein of one tiger.
Not stopping there, he fired a shot to the left and the bullet penetrated the forehead of one tiger, after which he fired another shot in all directions, except behind him.
Some of his bullets hit the tiger's forehead, some darted and made the attention of the few remaining tigers split in two, and Joko did not miss the opportunity.
He moved faster and swung his dagger, injuring the eyes of all the tigers in one swing, and Joko jumped back and fired a few bullets into the foreheads of the tigers.
The tigers fell, and at the same time, the bullets in the gun box ran out.
Joko kept her gun and held up the Dragon Fang Dagger high, "I love this dagger!"
***
As dawn breaks, Joko and Alex move faster towards Canada after their brief fight against the tigers and wolves that ganged on them.
After traveling for several hours, the two had already traveled half the way, and it would take them about another day to reach Canada if they passed the usual road.
"Alex, your ability is great, your speed can not even be followed.." said Joko when morning has arrived, "What is the secret of your speed?"
"Because I have something I want to protect..." Alex replied, "If I intend to protect, then my abilities will increase."
"Something you want to protect?" Joko raised her eyebrows, "What's the connection?"
"If you have something you want to protect, then your mind will think of doing anything to make it happen, and it will send signals throughout the body to do it.". Alex replied, "So far I've fought to make me look like a man in front of Miss Esterosa."
And, Joko will dig a deep hole and put her head in it. His rival is heavy...
"You... What has kept you fighting until now?" Ask Alex suddenly.
"Me?" Joko was silent, "I... I want to protect Indonesia."
"Huh? Hunter rank S like you?" Alex raised his eyebrows, "Is there anything else? Which is more detailed?"
"I used to be married and I should have retired from the world of Hunter, but everything changed since Surabaya was attacked by a big monster, which I don't know what it looks like..." Joko replied, "And, I've been fighting until now to forget my regrets..."
"What's that?"
"I'm weak, I can't protect people who are precious to me..." Joko lowered her head slightly, but both of her hands were still holding the handlebar of the motor, "My wife and first child died in the destruction..."
"And? Do you have a second child? How's fate?"
"My second son was trained by my father, and according to my father's plan, my son named Sky will join RedWhite when he is fifteen years old. Now he's only seven years old...."
"Then? Your regret is not being able to protect someone valuable to you?" Alex stroked his chin, "Is Raid this time an impingement for you?"
Joko pondered a little, how could Alex possibly know that?
"If so, then we are one fate..." Alex smiled faintly, "This time, let me tell you about my past and my regrets..."
