Before taking any action, Daniel gathered the exact intelligence on the Incheon Dark Society's suspicious activities in his territory. Every movement, every wandering operative, every gaze had been meticulously logged. The picture was now crystal clear.
The Incheon Dark Society's former leader, Paecheon Jo, and the current king of Incheon, Yujae Seon, were planning an ambitious territorial expansion. Their target: Gwangseong, Daniel's stronghold. They recognized Daniel as a potentially strong opponent, but in the eyes of other powerful kings, he was still a small fry, a middle schooler who could be crushed.
By taking over his territory, they believed they could accelerate their domination of Korea, filling the vacuum left by Yamazaki, who had failed to succeed against Garypyong Kim and his infamous Garypyong Fist gang. Once Gwangseong fell, the Incheon Dark Society intended to destroy Jaegyeon Na and his Speed Faction along with other regional kings.
Daniel's eyes narrowed, his mind dissecting the implications of every move. To the world, he was just a twelve-year-old controlling territories, a rising figure in the underworld—but the Incheon kings underestimated the mind behind the empire.
"They think they can erase me like a small obstacle… accelerate their plans by crushing me first," Daniel murmured with a cold smile. "They don't realize a fry can burn the oceans if it knows how to strike."
He reviewed the intel: number of operatives, patrol routes, supply chains, local influence, and potential alliances. Each detail revealed weaknesses in the Incheon Dark Society's plan.
Daniel leaned back, eyes calculating. "So, Paecheon Jo and Yujae Seon want Gwangseong… to dominate Korea… to crush all others… including Jaegyeon Na and his speed freaks. Fine. Let them plan. Let them move. I'll turn their confidence into their downfall."
The middle schooler, controlling two powerful factions, a massive network, and unmatched intelligence for his age, smiled coldly. The game was about to change.
Tonight, the hunter was observing, calculating, and preparing. The Incheon Dark Society believed they were the predators—but Daniel Park, even as a twelve-year-old, was no ordinary prey.
