Episode 172

“Kuuuuu… .”

The spirit and the black socialist turned their gaze to the weak laughter.

The man tied to the pole had been through some rough times, his clothes were torn and blood was all over his body.

Even though he was completely battered, the man kept opening his mouth and laughing as if he found something funny.

“How foolish, how foolish. How he ended up destroying the easy path with his own hands and jumping off a cliff! Have you ever seen such foolish and pathetic writers…! Hehehe… .”

“What is that?”

Ling asked, raising the black socialist flag.

“Ugh… That guy is just a, a crazy guy. Don’t worry about it.”

“You’re crazy! Haha! That’s right! For those who are satisfied only by shedding blood, peace must be crazy! You treated me like a teacher when I needed to, but now you treat me like a crazy person?”

Seol-hwa stared at the man hanging from the pole with narrow eyes.

In the previous life, eighty percent of the Black Tao forces were subordinate to the Blood Cult. The Blood Cult recognized those among the Black Tao forces who were outstanding in ability and martial arts and recruited them in large numbers.

So, if you are someone who stands out, you would probably know.

– Tell me more, Ling.

After the spirit took possession of the blood and spirit of the Black Socialist, he threw them to one side and approached the pole.

The man’s tired gaze turned to Ling.

“… You are the one who moved Heukunbang from behind.”

“Did you expect there to be a mastermind behind this?”

“Phehheh… Of course. The leader of the Black Cloud Clan is quite a thinker, but he doesn’t have the courage to do something like this. The reason he took up residence with Hwasan and Shaolin under his arms was in fact to receive their protection.”

“I see you know a lot about the Black Cloud Ark.”

“Even though the place called Heukdo may seem disorganized and old-fashioned, it is a place with strict order and discipline. As a strategist in the underworld, it was basic to understand the leaders of forces that could cause friction.”

hmm.

[It’s the spirit of the righteous faction. This person shouldn’t be in a place like this, so why is he here?]

– I don’t know either.

As Imoogi said, the energy felt from the man was faint but definitely a positive energy.

His martial arts skills seem to be first-class at best.

On that topic, you must have survived well as a strategist in the underworld.

“If I am at fault, it is that I chose a foolish master! Who can blame me for my death, who thought he could manipulate that foolish master as he pleased?”

The man burst into laughter as if he had lost his mind.

A sound of “Hmm!” was heard from behind the spirit.

The black socialite was glaring at the man, his body flinching. It seemed that he was upset that he was being called a foolish master right in front of his eyes.

– Ling, give the man down.

The spirit swung his sword and cut the pole, cutting the rope that bound the man just as he fell.

The man fell with a heavy sound, trembling in pain, then staggered up.

“What, what?”

“What is your name?”

“…Please call me Mr. Ok-myeon.”

After saying that, I felt embarrassed and quickly turned my head away.

“Huh, that’s what they called me in the underworld!”

“Keep quiet until everything is over.”

“You won’t kill me?”

“Whether you live or die will depend on how useful the information you have gathered from the chieftains is.”

“… .”

With those words, Ling approached the Black Socialist again, released the acupuncture point, and grabbed the back of his neck.

The black socialist started kicking and shouting as if he had been waiting for it.

“Let go of me! I’ll kill that bastard with my own hands! Let go of me!! I didn’t like you from the start, you parasitic bastard!”

It was when I was dragging him, who was struggling, towards the front of the stairs.

– Command.

“?”

– I’m organizing it.

The spirit looked behind him, at the roof of the pavilion.

It was only a moment before a small figure flew over the roof.

* * *

“Hehehe, this time it was pretty good, hyung. I didn’t like that parasitic brother of yours though.”

“You beat him so badly that he couldn’t even make a sound. You should have just provoked him a little more and cut off his slithering tongue.”

“He’s already dead anyway. Hey! Brother! Look over there!”

The younger of the two ghosts, Lee Gwi (二鬼), pointed to a place.

Thick smoke was rising where his finger was pointing.

“Isn’t that the direction where our base is?”

“What? Could it be that they’re from Heukwoonbang?”

The two looked at each other with serious expressions. But soon the corners of their lips curved deeply as if they had made a promise.

“Hehehe! You guys are really here, you idiots!”

“What did I say? Those who are concerned about their appearance are more susceptible to rumors? You idiots! They keep coming into our mouths!”

“Let’s go! If we keep doing this, everyone will have fun without us!”

The two Dok-Su-Ttang-Gwi quickly moved in the direction of their base.

What the two wanted was for the Black Cloud Room and the Black Society to engage in a bloody battle.

I almost ruined everything because of that cowardly Ok-myeon thing, but I took care of that guy this time and the Black Cloud Group invaded as I wished.

Now I have the chance to kill this guy with excitement!

“Heehee, heehee!”

The moment we arrived at our base, laughing excitedly.

Shhh-

“Ugh!”

grasp!

Suddenly, Ilgwi grabbed Leegwi’s clothes and dragged him away.

Lee Gwi, who had been running excitedly, suddenly stopped and gasped for breath before shouting.

“Hey, why are you holding on to me like that!”

But instead of responding to Ilgwi, Ilgwi looked straight ahead with a stern expression.

“What are you doing? You. Why are you suddenly throwing a sword at me? Do you want to die?”

Only then did Lee Gwi discover the dagger stuck in the tree behind him and gasp for breath.

Lee Gwi looked straight ahead.

At that moment, his eyebrows furrowed.

“What is it? It’s a kid.”

Against the backdrop of the stronghold of the underworld, a child walked in.

Judging from the black clothes and mask, he looks like a murderer, but he’s still a child.

“Are you also a member of Heukunbang?”

If there’s anyone guarding the crossroads in this situation, it’s probably the Heukwoonbang guys.

“Hey- Heukunbang even uses children?”

Ilgwi giggled and laughed.

The child suddenly opened his hands.

Before he knew it, the child was holding four knives in his hands. A black aura flowed out from the child’s body.

Ilgwi’s expression darkened at the eerie atmosphere.

“Get ready to fight.”

“…yes.”

Lee Gwi must have sensed something ominous as well, so he took a step back, picked up his bow, and loaded an arrow.

‘Is a peak expert a peak expert?’

Seolhwa glanced at the two people who were quickly getting into battle stance.

Even when I heard the nickname, I said it was the first time I heard it, but as expected, they were guys I didn’t know.

‘I guess something happened in the underworld in my past life.’

Considering that there was no such thing as Mr. Ok-myeon or this Dok-su-sang-gwi.

‘anyway….’

Their fate will be the same as before.

Chook-

Seol-hwa’s mouth curved into a smile under her mask as she pulled out her sword.

“You guys are so good at using a knife?”

“Who are you?”

“What good does it do if I’m going to die anyway?”

“It’s not Heukunbang.”

“If you really want to know, try to avoid my sword three times. If you’re still alive after three attempts, I’ll tell you my name.”

“This kid!”

Shhh-!

Ilgwi also blew three raindrops.

fault-!

As Seol-hwa lightly dodged the arrow, a raindrop fell and struck the spot where she had been standing.

At that moment, an arrow suddenly flew towards the avoided Seolhwa.

Fit-!

As the sharp arrowhead passed through her forearm, the face of the poisonous twin ears brightened.

‘Okay!’

‘Heh heh, you idiot!’

Ilgwi laughed heartily and fixed his sword.

“It seems like the young one has no experience. But what are we going to do? You’ll die by our hands before you even grow up!”

His own sword and his brother’s arrowheads are poisoned. Now, the young assassin will die paralyzed and shivering in pain.

‘I plan on cutting off his lifeline before that…!’

Shhh- Shhh!

The eagle swung its wings.

Lee Gwi also blocked Seol-hwa’s escape route by shooting arrows one after another.

The child froze, unable to even think about stopping it.

‘Is it already taking effect? ​​I guess it works quickly because it’s a baby!’

The moment when Ilgwi ran towards the child, giggling.

“Are you okay?”

Seolhwa, looking down at her hands, spoke in a cheerful voice.

The sun rose and stopped.

what?

Are you… okay? What?

Kakang! Kakang!

“!”

At that moment when Ilgwi hesitated, the child blocked the arrow in the blink of an eye.

The bird lost its flying power and fell to the ground with a thud.

The arrows that Lee Gwi had shot were also all broken into two and were rolling around the ground.

“Not bad. No, I’m satisfied.”

“…?”

What? What on earth is satisfying?

“Oh, thank you. I just had something I wanted to try.”

Is the poison taking effect yet?

Is it too late?

No, but when did you stop the rain?

Why are the arrows so far apart?

‘Move….’

I didn’t even see it… .

“Is it my turn now? Three times as promised?”

The child walked slowly and raised his hand, which was filled with tears.

‘no.’

Gulp, cold sweat flowed down.

This kid is a master. He’s a master at it.

A master beyond the pinnacle who they can never defeat.

‘I have to run away…’

Shhhhh! Boom!

“!”

The moment I thought I had to run away, something tore through the air.

The sound passing by made my right ear tingle.

Ilgwi turned his creaking head and looked back.

My younger brother, Lee Gwi, was found dead with a knife stuck in his forehead while standing.

dump-

Lee Gwi collapsed late.

“What, it was over in one shot? You were shooting pretty well. What a shame.”

“… .”

Ilgwi looked back at the child with fearful eyes.

“Then, I’ll give you your share once.”

The child’s innocent eyes sparkled brightly above the mask.

“how is it?”
