Chapter 86

Bomber, the villain, was quite pleased with this operation. There was only one reason for this—it was thrilling. If the target—a descendant of a conglomerate family—was eliminated, a fairly dangerous figure would become an enemy,

Of course, any villain should move stealthily and go unnoticed. Although Bomber could lose his life if he ws caught, he was a terrorist in the first place. If he were to be afraid of risking his life, he wouldn’t even have become a terrorist.

‘I won’t be making a loss, if I lend a hand in the fight of this conglomerate family. I can profit from this.’

For Bomber, this was a relaxing start. He was once a U.S. soldier. He had learned Korean while he was stationed in Korea so he could communicate in the language quite easily. For Bomber, this operation was something that would end so easily and pleasantly.

However, as soon as Jin Do-Yoon suddenly ran, snatched his wrist, and pulled out his shoulder bone, Bomber recognized that he was in some danger and cursed inside. He couldn’t help but scream, "Ahhhhhh-!"

“I asked, who are you?” Jin Do-Yoon repeated his question.

Choi Byung-Chan frowned as he was sitting down and eating food. He muttered, “How loud… Can’t he see that his masters are eating?”

Then, with a yawn, Byung-Chan stood up and seemingly disappeared.

At that moment, Yu-Seong, who was organizing what had happened in his head, jumped out of his seat somewhat instinctively. He converted the Pharaoh’s Caprice into a weapon. Then, he invoked Insight and followed the invisible movement before pushing the opponent out of range with the Spearmanship skill, balustrade.

All of these actions took place during a very short period of time.

A quick explosion rang out in the room. Jin Do-Yoon had been kicked by Choi Byung-Chan and had flown beyond the building, breaking several walls. Then, he fell and collapsed even more walls.

"Oh, my bad. Not enough energy was applied, so he’s now just blocking the road. I meant to kill him,” said Byung-Chan as if he was annoyed. Then, he saw the sudden appearance of Yu-Seong's spear and his eyes twinkled. He asked, "It's an ancient artifact, isn't it? Did Father give it to you?"

“...” Instead of answering, Yu-Seong widened the distance with Byung-Chan.

"Why aren't you answering me? I asked you a question.” Byung-Chan smiled at Yu-Seong.

"What was that?" asked Yu-Seong as he looked sideways at Bomber who laid on the floor.

Byung-Chan tilted his head at Yu-Seong’s question. He stated, "Hey, I think I asked the question first.”

"I have no obligation to answer," said Yu-Seong.

"Then I'm not obliged to answer your question either. And there's no reason why I have to humor a brother who's disrespectful to me." After speaking, Choi Byung-Chan laughed and disappeared once again.

Choi Yu-Seong read the movement with Insight and made an illusion by conducting Wind Control. Byung-Chan's roughly swung fist penetrated his entire illusion and broke the wall with a roar.

There was a blast as the cold wind of early February swept from the outside. Choi Byung-Chan wriggled his eyebrows and smiled. "Interesting.”

Once again, Yu-Seong widened the distance between them by performing Wind Control Execution. Then, he invoked Spearmanship.

‘The wind property.’

As Yu-Seong quickly pierced the air, a sharp wind swept across Choi Byung-Chan’s limbs from the end of the spear. Then, before Yu-Seong knew it, Choi Byung-Chan had disappeared from the place he was standing at.

Immediately after, Choi Byung-Chan's voice came from behind Yu-Seong. “What’s up with you? Choi Yu-Seong, are you sure you're a D-rank?"

Yu-Seong once again tried to widen the distance by invoking an illusion by using Wind Control. However, this time, Choi Byung-Chan was not fooled. Byung-Chan passed through the illusion and smiled right in front of Choi Yu-Seong's nose.

‘He’s so fast.’

After all, Choi Byung-Chan was an A-rank player who was even called a natural fighter. No matter how great Choi Yu-Seong's talent was, the opponent was also an overwhelmingly talented hunter.

When Byung-Chan grabbed him at once. Yu-Seong groaned. "Gugh…!"

There was no place to escape to, and Yu-Seong was not powerful enough to shake off the A-rank hunter who was trying his best to catch him.

'Darn…it...'?

Choi Yu-Seong gritted his teeth and glanced around. He needed to find a way. Byung-Chan wouldn’t kill him right away, since there was a high possibility that their conversation would go on for a bit longer. It was time for Yu-Seong to seek an opportunity to strike back.

Choi Byung-Chan tightened his grip threateningly.

"Kahh…!" Choking, Choi Yu-Seong's mind slowly became blank. He couldn’t breathe.

"Choi Yu-Seong, you're more dangerous than I thought. What the heck are you? Your skill just now looks similar to Choi Ji-Ho’s Wind Control."

More questions from Choi Byung-Chan followed, but he didn’t ask for an answer. He was a natural fighter, after all, so he had no need to truly understand his opponents.

It was only a short battle, but Choi Byung-Chan was sure about one thing.

‘This guy, he’ll become really dangerous when he gets older.’

Choi Yu-Seong may become stronger than Byung-Chan himself if he was also in A-rank, or even just a B-rank. It was unbelievable, but Byung-Chan’s instinct raised Choi Yu-Seong’s risk evaluation to the highest possible level. It was like seeing Choi Ji-Ho, the man who once overshadowed the entire family in a different way from Choi Woo-Jae.

If he could do it, Byung-Chan wanted to break Yu-Seong’s neck before Yu-Seong became stronger. However, he couldn’t do it.

'Killing him is too much for me… Father is paying attention to him because he knows that this guy is as strong as this.’

Byung-Chan's instinctive fear and logical reasoning clashed, preventing him from easily making the final decision. At that moment, he could see the groaning Bomber struggling to stand up.

‘He was beaten stupidly, but…’

Bomber's ability could quite covertly injure Yu-Seong to a point that was beyond recovery. Above all, Byung-Chan did not have to personally harm Yu-Seong, so it was easy to shrug off the blame.

Choi Byung-Chan made his decision, smiled coldly, and approached Bomber while grabbing Yu-Seong. He asked, "Hey, you can speak Korean, right?”

"Ugh..." groaned Bomber. He raised his head to see Choi Byung-Chan, and nodded.

“Good. I don't like English very much. Speaking of which…”

Before Choi Byung-Chan could complete his sentence, a wolf’s howl rose from the ground. A werewolf with its back against the moonlight flew over from the outside wall.

"Damn those beasts. I should have killed him with one shot earlier..." Muttering to himself, Choi Byung-Chan invoked his skill and stretched out his fist. A strong wind soared into the air. As far as he knew, most of the physical players of his rank couldn’t endure this attack.

However, Jin Do-Yoon, who had turned into a werewolf, broke through the attack head-on.

‘What?’

It was a somewhat surprising moment, and thanks to this, Byung-Chan’s wrist was caught by Do-Yoon. When Byung-Chan pulled himself together again, Jin Do-Yoon kicked Byung-Chan's temple.

Boom-!

This time, Choi Byung-Chan flew in the air. At that moment, Byung-Chan had to let go of Choi Yu-Seong and loosen his grip. Jin Do-Yoon did not miss the opportunity and held Choi Yu-Seong in his arms.

"Kaugh-!" Yu-Seong suddenly started breathing, coughing roughly several times.

‘Fortunately, he’s okay.’?

Do-Yoon looked at Choi Yu-Seong with a sense of relief.

"Damn you, werewolf. Screw you." Bomber approached them, grabbed Jin Do-Yoon's ankle, and cursed.

Jin Do-Yoon stepped away to shake off Bomber’s hand easily, and Bomber flew in the air just like Choi Byung-Chan. However, Bomber kept smiling even when flying through the air. His lips slightly moved, and Do-Yoon could see and read what he had said.

‘Bang…?’

At the same time, there was a large explosion. As his entire ankle exploded apart, Do-Yoon screamed in anguish, "Khaaaaa-!"

The blood, flesh, and fur flew all over the place. Do-Yoon fell to the ground while trying to protect Yu-Seong from the explosion, using his back as a shield.

In the tremendous uproar, Yu-Seong began to recover little by little and called out in surprise, "Jin Do-Yoon..."

"I'm fine, young master..."

Even before Do-Yoon’s bestial cry ended, a rough wind swept across Yu-Seong and struck Do-Yoon on the head.

"Woof-!"

Jin Do-Yoon cried out and rolled the floor several times. Then, he smashed against the corner of the wall.

Kurrrr-!

Choi Byung-Chan fell from above Do-Yoon and trampled on his chest.

Bang-!

Jin Do-Yoon couldn't even scream, spewing blood. He fell down the stairs.

"Jin Do-Yoon!" yelled Choi Yu-Seong and he clenched his fist. He could feel his fury quickly dominating his sense of reason.

‘Choi Byung-Chan, you punk!’

"How dare the dog of the house bite its owner!" Choi Byung-Chan looked angry while he swept his hair back, wiping the blood away from his forehead. He then smiled at Yu-Seong. "If the dog does something wrong, the owner should punish it accordingly. Too bad, I cannot stand it anymore. At least, father wouldn't kill me."

‘Thud-, thud-.’

Byung-Chan approached Yu-Seong with heavy footsteps, twisting his neck left and right.

Yu-Seong remained standing, using his spear as a support. He looked at Byung-Chan with a cold gaze.

‘Just one-off…’

If given the chance, Yu-Seong could destroy Choi Byung-Chan's heart. He himself had the same risk, since his opponent had the intention of killing him. There was no reason for him to hesitate to kill even though Byung-Chan was his brother.

"Oh, Choi Yu-Seong. I really don't like that cheeky look. Well, that's probably the last one. Now, it’s time for you to die." Byung-Chan clenched his fists.

Choi Yu-Seong and Choi Byung-Chan were less than 10 steps away from each other.

‘Not yet. Just a little closer…’

Yu-Seong wouldn’t be able to get the chance at such a distance.

Choi Byung-Chan smiled brutally and stretched his arms, as if he could read Yu-Seong’s mind. He sent a punch flying toward Yu-Seong’s heart, and there was no place for escape.

‘If I block that… Would I be able to stand up again?’

While Choi Yu-Seong was thinking, his vision was blocked by someone's back.

‘A waitress?’

Bomber was hit by Choi Byung-Chan's wind punch. He flew toward Choi Yu-Seong, vomiting blood. Thanks to this, Yu-Seong had to roll on the floor several times with Bomber in his arms.

‘Why?’

Yu-Seong had no idea why Bomber had shielded him from the attack. However, before his doubts cleared up, he realized that Bomber had already died.

‘He’s not breathing.’

Someone had killed Bomber and had thrown him out as a shield.

"I’m done watching~ That cute kid is mine."

Even before Yu-Seong could unravel his thoughts, he heard a woman’s voice ringing out. He trembled somewhat instinctively.

‘No way!’

An image of madness flashed across Yu-Seong’s mind. As he got rid of the Bomber’s body, Yu-Seong could hear Byung-Chan's fearless voice.

"Who the heck are you?"

"Me?"

Flaming red hair flew through the air. A woman holding a short ax with her right hand pointed to herself with her left index finger and tilted her head. Then, she smiled and turned to look at Yu-Seong with deep blood-colored eyes. She said in a creepy fashion, "Will you answer that for me, gold nugget?”

Yu-Seong answered with a shiver, "...Rachel."

Rachel was the Slaughter Queen. Above the city center full of darkness, the disaster finally descended.
