Chapter 49 - Chapter 49:The IHM Meeting

Episode Start

It is early morning.

Jay walks out of his room.

As soon as he steps outside, he sees his mother, Anvi, standing there with a gentle smile.

"Jay, hurry up. You're going to be late."

Jay smiles back.

"Finally... after all these years."

Just then, his phone rings.

It is Dhruv.

Jay answers the call.

"Jay, today's the IHM—the International Hunter Meeting. Get to HQ as soon as possible, and bring Anvi ma'am with you. We all have to attend the meeting."

Jay nods.

"Okay."

After ending the call, he turns toward his mother.

"Mom, you'll have to come to HQ with me today."

A Little Later...

Jay starts his car.

A few moments later, Anvi and Pooja get into the vehicle.

Jay looks confused.

"Mom, why is Pooja coming with us?"

Anvi smiles.

"We have to drop her off at school on the way."

Jay sighs.

"Okay..."

A Short While Later...

Jay's car comes to a stop outside HQ.

Jay and Anvi step out.

Today, the atmosphere at HQ feels completely different.

International Hunters from all over the world have gathered there.

Just then, Dhruv walks out of the building.

"Jay... Anvi ma'am... this way."

As they reach the entrance, security hands everyone a pair of special headphones.

Dhruv explains,

"These headphones will automatically translate every language, so everyone can understand each other."

Jay asks,

"So... what's actually going to happen today?"

Dhruv replies,

"Today, Hunters from every country are meeting together."

At that moment...

A man walks through the main entrance.

Vasco.

The instant he enters, a terrifying aura spreads across the entire headquarters.

Many Hunters become visibly nervous just from his presence.

Vasco walks straight toward Jay and stops in front of him.

The two silently stare into each other's eyes.

The next moment...

Their auras begin colliding.

An overwhelming pressure fills the entire hall.

The surrounding Hunters are stunned.

"How can both of them be this powerful?"

But then...

A third aura begins to emerge.

Everyone turns toward Anvi.

Her aura slowly expands throughout the hall.

For the first time...

Even Vasco looks surprised.

Just then, Aditya arrives.

One of his arms is covered in a cast.

Anvi asks,

"Aditya, what happened to your arm?"

Aditya laughs.

"Ma'am, you weren't around... that's what happened."

Everyone smiles.

Anvi then asks,

"By the way, where's Ansh?"

A voice comes from the side.

"I'm right here."

Everyone turns toward him.

The moment the Hunters see Ansh, several of them instinctively prepare themselves.

Even Vasco steps forward.

"Black Punisher... what are you doing here?"

Ansh stands directly in front of him.

"I can go wherever I want."

The tension in the room rises instantly.

Before anything can happen, Aditya steps between them.

"Relax... Ansh is with us."

Slowly, everyone calms down.

As they walk toward the Meeting Hall, Jay turns to his mother.

"Mom... if you were that powerful, why couldn't you escape from that place?"

Anvi answers calmly,

"My powers were completely sealed there."

Jay quietly nods.

Meeting Hall

All the Hunters take their seats.

Aditya walks onto the stage and begins the meeting.

"As all of you already know... after yesterday's incident in Delhi, we successfully captured Ozarian, the mastermind behind the entire war."

Suddenly...

A Japanese Hunter stands up.

His aura is incredibly powerful.

He looks directly at Aditya.

"Why are you telling us all of this?"

"Tell us about the Red Hunter... Aviraj Verma."

"How many people did he kill?"

The entire hall falls silent.

Everyone's eyes shift toward Jay.

Then Anvi speaks in a calm but cold voice.

"Before speaking in the middle of a meeting..."

"...make sure you've thought about the consequences."

The Japanese Hunter looks at her.

A hint of shock appears on his face.

Without saying another word...

He quietly sits back down.

Some Time Later...

The meeting comes to an end.

Hunters begin leaving the hall.

The same Japanese Hunter approaches Anvi.

"Are you... Anvi Verma?"

Anvi nods.

"Yes. Why?"

He respectfully bows his head.

"My name is Kenji."

"My master told me about you."

Anvi looks surprised.

"Who's your master?"

Kenji replies,

"Kaito Kurogane."

The moment that name is spoken...

Every Indian Hunter is left stunned.

Just then...

The massive gates of HQ slowly open.

Walking through them is—

Kaito Kurogane.

Several Hunters immediately move toward him.

But before anyone else can react...

Ansh rushes forward and throws a punch at Kaito.

Without any effort...

Kaito catches the punch with one hand.

The entire hall is shocked.

A faint smile appears on Kaito's face.

"You're still just a child compared to me, Ansh."

Aditya immediately shouts,

"Ansh! Stand down!"

Ansh reluctantly steps back.

"Why did you stop me?"

Aditya answers,

"Kaito isn't just a Hunter anymore."

"He's now a politician representing Japan."

"If we attack him here, it'll become an international issue."

Furious, Ansh punches the nearby wall.

BOOM!

Deep cracks spread across it.

Without saying another word...

He walks away.

Jay watches Kaito from a distance.

The shock on his face is impossible to hide.

A few moments later...

Kaito and Kenji leave HQ as well.

Just then...

Jay's phone rings.

The caller is—

Kabir.

Jay answers immediately.

Kabir speaks urgently.

"Jay... get to the hospital right now."

"Someone is waiting for you."

Without wasting another second, Jay rushes toward the exit.

Anvi stops him.

"Jay... where are you going?"

Jay smiles.

"Just something important."

"I'll be back soon."

He quickly leaves HQ.

Anvi watches him leave, confused.

Dhruv smiles slightly.

"I know where he's going..."

"...and why."
