My Ex-Wife Didn't Know That I Am A Hunter Chapter 27
Ethan stood at the edge of the gravel road, his boots touching the ground damp with morning dew. Fresh air slipped into his lungs, carrying the distinctive scent of wet leaves and a hint of clay. She took a deep breath, then exhaled slowly. The cold air mixed with her hot exhale, forming a light mist in the morning.“How long have I been without air like this?” he murmured softly, his eyes gazing at the dense forest on the other side.A wooden signpost stood askew on the side of the road, the writing slightly faded, but still legible: Dogu. Ethan touched the board with a finger, the wood rough and mossy. The village felt unfamiliar to him, but his steps remained steady following the small road that led to it.Along the way, the sound of children's laughter echoed. Some ran around in bare feet, sending dust into the air. A small boy held a battered kite, its string tied tightly in his hand. Ethan glanced at them, the corners of his lips lifting slightly-a rare smile.However, the peace

“Get out of this place, or you won't make it out alive!” The man cocked the shotgun with a loud, echoing sound, as if to reinforce his threat.The young girl behind him cowered in fear, her eyes glancing at Ethan over her father's shoulder. Her face was as pale as paper, her lips quivering silently, as if she had just seen death in human form.Ethan slowly raised both his hands, his palms open upwards in a sign of peace. His face remained flat, cold as a stone statue. There was not a hint of fear in his eyes, as if the shotgun blast was just a trivial matter.Stepping away from the table, Ethan tilted his head, his gaze fixed on the man. In a low, calm voice he tried not to provoke the man with the beard. “Calm down, sir. I think there's a misunderstanding here.”The man with the beard glared, his eyes burning like embers ready to burn. His breathing sounded heavy, filling the room with tension that hung in the air. Ethan's calmness seemed to be the spark that magnified the flames of

“UAARGH!” The bearded man's shout echoed, breaking the silence. His eyes bulged wildly, his breath caught as if his heart was about to be ripped out of his chest. Panicking, he jumped backwards. However, his head slammed into a glass display case. The sparkle of shattered glass filled the air as her body staggered. The world seemed to shake in her eyes, spinning uncontrollably.Ethan took a step forward. Slowly, but each step felt like a rumble. The air vibrated as if his presence ruled the room. Those fiery red eyes stared straight, piercing, making the bearded man's blood freeze.His hand reached into his jacket pocket, searching for the remaining shotgun shells. His fingers trembled violently, like leaves shaken by a storm. A bullet fell out of his grasp, sliding to the floor because of his hands that he couldn't control in fear. “Damn it!”The bearded man cursed repeatedly, his face growing pale, almost as if there was no blood left in his body. With trembling hands, he cocked the

“Father, wake up.” A young girl's voice sounded faintly like a gentle stream of air.Slowly, the bearded man opened his eyes. His vision was still blurry as he had been unconscious for quite some time. He took a deep breath, then held his slightly dizzy head. “Freya... where am I?”Then Ethan's voice suddenly sounded. “You're finally awake, Ben.”Instantly the bearded man opened his eyes wide and woke up from his sleep. Immediately he glared at Ethan and set up a fighting stance. Breath rushed out of his mouth and nose. “Monster! Leave my son alone!”Ethan was standing in the doorway, his figure firmly established there. His gaze was cold and calm, as if the ice bars were ready to pierce the bones. Ben, the bearded man held his breath, immediately cautious of Ethan's figure. He could still clearly remember how terrifying Ethan had been when he had previously fought with him.Ben immediately stood in front of Freya, blocking Ethan's figure. “I won't let a demon like you touch my son!”

“This is crazy, Mr. Ethan! You really want to kill yourself. What's worse, you invited me!” Ben protested loudly while trembling. The shotgun he was holding didn't make him feel safe at all. In fact, he was very violent with it before. “Mr. Ethan, going out at night like this is very dangerous.”The night wind blew cold, piercing the bones. Ben patted his chest several times, which felt tight despite the layers of clothing he was wearing. In fact, the problem wasn't the cold, but the fear that was too great at this time of night.Gulping, he turned to Ethan. He tilted his head and his eyebrows knitted together like threads. The man apparently calmly opened the barrel of his revolver and changed the bullet to a red bullet. Then he closed the barrel and brought it slightly closer to his ear.Closing his eyes, Ethan slowly twirled the barrel of his revolver. Listening to every sound that came out of it. Then he calmly placed it into the holster. “Preparations complete.”Ben gulped. He ap

Ben swallowed with difficulty, his throat feeling dry. His fingers gripped the shotgun tightly in his hand, cold sweat making the grip feel slippery. His chest rose and fell, his breathing short and labored, like someone who had been running non-stop for too long.His eyes swept in all directions, trying to penetrate the darkness that engulfed the room. Faint shadows moved in the corners of his vision, making his heart beat faster and faster. The flashlight in his hand gave off only a faint glow, blinking as if it was afraid to face what was hidden in the shadows.The darkness felt alive, as if it was watching him from all angles. Every little sound of the swishing wind made his nerves tense.“What do you hear, Mr. Ethan?” his voice almost broke, trembling at the end. Ben turned to Ethan, hoping for an answer, or at least reassurance that they weren't alone here.Ethan put a finger to his lips, signaling Ben to remain silent. With focused eyes, he focused on the subtle sound echoing t
My Ex-Wife Didn't Know That I Am A Hunter Chapter 33
The creature let out a long, ear-piercing hiss, like the scream of steel being dragged over stone. The sound made the air around him feel heavier. Ben winced, his hands covering his ears as best he could, but it wasn't enough to block out the pain creeping in.His body trembled uncontrollably. His breath began to come in gasps, like cold air stabbing his lungs. His face was pale as alabaster, and cold sweat began to run down his temples. The fear nailed his legs, but his hands, despite the trembling, managed to lift the shotgun towards the creature.“This sound...,” he muttered in a hoarse voice that was barely audible. His widened eyes full of fear stared at the creature without blinking. “It... it's the thing that kidnaps people!”Ethan grabbed Ben's shoulder and patted it gently, trying to calm the tremors felt under his hand. He brought his face close to the side of Ben's head, whispering low like the night wind. “Calm down, Ben. Wendigo are very strong at night. Their ears are se
My Ex-Wife Didn't Know That I Am A Hunter Chapter 34
Ben opened his eyes in shock. The world was upside down. His head throbbed as if he'd been hit by a boulder. His breathing was ragged, heavy in the chest. In the darkness, he realized something-he was hanging upside down, his body bound and dangling like pieces of meat in a cold warehouse. The last thing he remembered was the wendigo hitting his head, and after that, everything was black.Slowly, the sound of Ben's uncontrollable breathing broke the silence. Then he heard it-a low growl that seemed to come from the darkness itself.Ben swallowed, his eyes widening. With nervous movements, he covered his mouth with both hands, trying to silence his own breathing. But his body was trembling, and a chill ran down his spine from his toes.The worry floating in the air began to seep into his chest. His mind began to think of bad things. “This is bad! This is bad!”He glanced to the side, and there, stood the creature. Wendigo.Its face was so close that Ben could feel every sigh of its fou

Freya brought a glass of Ginger Ale to Ben who had been pacing restlessly by the window. Slowly, she placed the drink on the table before turning to her father. However, Ben remained glued to the windowpane, his eyes full of anxiety as if hoping Ethan would appear at any moment. The wound on his arm was still gaping, but the worry in his chest far outweighed the pain.Freya stepped closer, hesitating for a moment before gently touching Ben's shoulder. “Dad, calm down. Mr. Ethan will help you,” she said, trying to channel a bit of calm through her words.However, Ben just shook his head, his breathing heavy as if he was holding something inside his chest. “You don't know what's in there, Freya,” his voice was lower, almost a murmur. “Those Wendigo's are different than before.”Ben clenched his hands, his jaw hardening as his mind drifted back to what he'd seen in the mine. He looked back at the window, his gaze filled with a fear he couldn't hide. “Lord Ethan is in a life-and-death sta
Chapter 43
Ethan raised his revolver quickly, the barrel aimed right at the head of the green Wendigo still bound in chains. But something wasn't right.Ethan's eyes widened, his chest tightened. The Wendigo's right hand that should have vanished... reappeared.The flesh crawled, sticking to itself like an upside-down wound. The white bone protruded first, followed by the rapidly spreading muscle fibers. The black blood that should have flowed out was now reabsorbed, as if there had never been a wound there.Ethan gritted his teeth, his breath hitching. His fingers tightened on the revolver's handle, almost pulling the trigger involuntarily. A disgusting sound rang out as the Wendigo's skin fused back together. And within seconds... his hand was back in one piece.“No way...”Ethan's voice was almost a whisper. His eyes were still glued to the creature, his brain trying to digest something that shouldn't have happened. The wendigo could regenerate.Without thinking, Ethan pulled the trigger. Two

“A Demon Hunter like you? How could...,” Ben's words trailed off. He knew how strong Ethan was. He had seen it himself-how this man stood unwavering despite being shotgunned, how he kept moving forward despite being thrown molotovs.But his eyes were now fixed on something different. The blood seeping from Ethan's stomach. Ben's breath caught. Slowly, he raised his gaze, looking directly into Ethan's face. There was something in the man's eyes-something Ben had never seen before. Doubt. “You... who can't be pierced by bullets, who doesn't even falter in fire... could be hurt by that thing?”Ethan was silent. His jaw hardened slightly. He hated this fact, but he knew there was no point in denying it. Slowly, he nodded.Ben swallowed. If Ethan could get hurt, then... what could anyone else do?Ethan took a deep breath. His voice was low, but there was something in it-weight, certainty, and an inviolable truth. “You need to get out.”Ben remained silent. Inside his chest, a battle betwee

“Damn it.” Ethan swore, his eyes blazing with pent-up anger. His jaw muscles hardened as he turned slowly towards Ben, his gaze so intense that it made the man pause for a moment.Ben frowned, hesitation clear on his face. His eyebrows rose, his voice sounding slightly rushed. “Mr. Ethan, let's take him out. Put him in the room with Jared. We can find an antidote for them!”Ethan didn't answer right away.With a quick movement, he stood up and grabbed Ben by the collar, pulling him a little closer. His gaze dropped to the man's hand-a shabby bandage of cloth covering a wound that should have been properly treated.“Your hand...” His voice was low, almost a threatening whisper. His crimson eyes stared at the wound like they wanted to pierce the cloth that wrapped it.Ethan took a deep breath, holding back his annoyance. “I told you, get out of this cave.”Ben swallowed, his left hand trembling slightly as he reached under his shirt and pulled out a flare gun. The dim light from the fir

“Uhuhk!” Ethan choked, a metallic taste filling his mouth as warm blood flowed from his lips. He coughed, red splotches dripping onto the rocky ground below him. Pain pulsed from the wound, deep and piercing-right at the human's weak spot.The wendigo groaned again. The high frequency slammed into the air, piercing straight into his skull. The world seemed to shake, like the ground beneath him was about to collapse. His ears were ringing, his own voice seemed distant.Ethan blinked, but his vision began to blur. His knees buckled, his body almost collapsing to the ground. Balance lost, his breathing labored. The sound wasn't just noise-it was crushing from within.Blood was still dripping from Ethan's wound, but he didn't care. With a swift movement, he gripped the Wendigo's arm that was still stuck to his body. The grip was strong, like a steel trap closing tightly.The Hell Chain in her hand moved on its own. With lightning speed, the chain wrapped around Wendigo's arm, gripping it
Chapter 39
The wendigo groaned, its hoarse voice echoing through the air, almost like a fusion of a wolf's howl and a tortured human scream. Its thin, towering body bent over slightly, its long claws gripping the wet ground.He could not see clearly, but he did not need to. Its black nostrils flared, inhaling the air deeply, searching for traces of scent in the surroundings. The smell of gunpowder... sharp, burning his sense of smell. It mixed with the sweat and blood of the human in front of him-not prey, but a threat.It's head turned quickly towards Ethan, as if he had just realized something. It's long, ragged ears twitched, detecting every slightest movement. The atmosphere felt increasingly oppressive, like the breath of death hanging in the air.Ethan tilted his head slowly, his movements barely visible. He knew the Wendigo couldn't guess his steps if he moved silently. With a controlled breath, he raised the revolver, aiming steadily at the monstrous creature in front of him.However, so

Ethan stared intently at his interlocutor. His eyes widened, his gaze stressed, as if trying to penetrate any lies that might be hidden. His jaw tightened, his tone low but firm.“So you really wish myths were real?” he said, each word coming out cold, almost like an accusation.Ben swallowed, his throat feeling dry as sand. Cold sweat ran down his neck, mixing with the air that suddenly felt piercing, colder than it should. His breath caught, his chest rising and falling in an irregular rhythm.“Yes... then you must not kill him at all, Mr. Ethan!” His voice trembled, like someone speaking on the verge of despair.His eyes widened, his hands clenched tightly until his knuckles turned white. This was all he could do-the only way to protect his wife, Jared, and... Jared's wife.Ethan only snorted softly, then turned away. His movements were calm, almost carefree, as if Ben's words were nothing more than a breeze. Without hesitation, he stepped inside the Wendigo's lair, his shadow leng
Vhapter 37
Ethan snorted softly, the sound of his breathing like a small eruption breaking the silence. The air around them felt as if it was frozen, there was no other sound except for the echo of their breathing reflected in the cave walls. Ethan's eyes narrowed, staring at Ben like a hunter who'd locked his quarry in a tight corner.With slow, deliberate movements, Ethan raised his gun, the muzzle end stopping just inches from Ben's forehead. The metallic sound of the revolver's trigger being pulled echoed between them, adding to the suffocating tension."Don't try to play with me, Ben," Ethan said in a low tone, almost a whisper, but full of menace. "What are you hiding? Where's Jared?"Ben's face paled instantly, his blood flow seemed to stop. He couldn't take his eyes off the gun pointed at him. His breathing was short and rushed, his chest rising and falling in a chaotic rhythm. "I... I didn't-" his words trailed off, his voice lost in his own fear.Ethan didn't move, just stared at Ben c
Chapter 36
With trembling hands, Ben felt around his body, searching for the flare gun Ethan had given him earlier. His fingers touched the rough surface of his belt, but panic made his movements uncoordinated. His breathing getting shorter, his eyes glanced quickly at the Wendigo that was starting to rise. The creature's piercing scream echoed in the cave, making Ben's ears ring and his heart beat even wilder.Ben's feet reflexively stepped back, his body shifting away from the creature. However, the Wendigo was hurtling towards him with terrifying speed, its long claws outstretched, ready to rip.Before the claws could touch Ben's skin, something luminous emerged from the darkness. Luminous chains shot out from Ethan's hands, striking the Wendigo's body with a thunderous sound like a metal whip lashing the air. Wendigo bounced violently, his skinny body slamming into the cave wall with such force that small rocks fell from above.Ethan instantly raised his pistol, pointing the muzzle right at
