Chapter 86

##86fury. counterattack

After a while, Ilho was dragged into a dark alley..

Lee-ho, Sam-ho, and Sa-ho disappeared in the alley and were lying unconscious..

In front of him stood three masked warriors..

‘I didn't feel any presence at all.…….’

The Black Forest killing team was neutralized before they could even resist..

Ilho glared at the woman who dragged him into this unbelievable reality..

No, the other person was no longer a woman.

Crackling.

When I straightened my back, which had been bent while dressing as a woman, I grew taller..

profit!

When the bast face was removed, the face of a handsome man was revealed to the point of admiration..

He was a white water dragon.

Baek Soo-ryong, who saw the assassins scattered on the floor, said to his masked colleagues:.

“Thank you all for your hard work. I'll take care of the rest, so go back to the old man..”

“…….”

The masked people were Ak Yeon-ho, Myeong Il-oh, and Zhuge So-young..

The three nodded silently, then opened their eyes at the same time, kicked off the wall, and disappeared..

“……I think they somehow got a taste for the trick game..”

Baek Soo-ryong clicked his tongue lightly and looked back at Il-ho. He stretched out his hand and relieved Ilho of his pain..

“Now that I've resolved the pain, I can talk now. But don't suddenly scream or anything. Let’s go easy on each other. huh?”

“…….”

“Like Salsu, he is a friend with a heavy mouth..”

Baek Soo-ryong chuckled despite Il-ho’s indifferent reaction..

“If I do this, my mouth will feel a little lighter..”

Ujijik! Baek Soo-ryong pulled off one of Il-ho's shoulders in one go..

“Big!”

Cold sweat formed on Ilho’s forehead as he knelt down..

It was a shame because he was a assassin who was used to pain and had strong patience, but the pain was enough to make an average person scream..

“Torture… … Do you think it will work?.”

Ilho opened his mouth for the first time. He said while glaring straight at Baek Su-ryong..

“Kill it. Torturing me will get you nothing..”

Baek Soo-ryong chuckled at his solemn attitude..

“If you want to die, bite your tongue, why are you asking me to kill you??”

“…….”

“Actually, I want to live?”

Baek Soo-ryong’s eyes, staring at Il-ho, were as clear as glass..

Susssut…….

There was a faint red glow in his eyes..

“I know killers like you well. Because killing people is their job, they think they know death well. But is it really so??”

“…….”

Ilho did not answer.

Smiling, Baek Su-ryong searched through his clothes and found numerous memorizations..

Among them, he took out one of the stars, threw it into the air, caught it, played with it like a toy, and then suddenly threw it to the side..

Puuk!

A commendation was stuck between the eyes of Saho, who was lying unconscious. It was instant death.

Surprised, Ilho flinched and trembled. Baek Soo-ryong looked down at him and smiled lazily..

“Does seeing other people die often make you less afraid of death? no. Every time I look into the terrified eyes of a dying person, my fear of death grows..”

“…….”

The feeling of the other person's voice penetrating my ears and entering my brain..

Ilho tried to keep a blank expression and glared straight at Baek Soo-ryong..

“Such a threat…….”

Baek Soo-ryong threw the dagger to the side this time..

deeply!

A dagger got stuck in Samho’s heart..

Samho’s trembling body gradually stopped moving..

Pop… … . pop…….

Blood dripped down the handle of the dagger stuck in his chest..

Ilho clenched his teeth without realizing it..

“Through training, assassins kill their emotions and become numb to pain. You become insensitive to even killing someone. Think of it as overcoming the fear of death. But look carefully.”

“stop……!”

Baek Soo-ryong threw a needle-thin gold needle at Lee Ho..

deeply!

This time, his life was not taken all at once. Lee Ho suddenly opened his eyes and, writhing in pain, tried to pull out the gold needle stuck in his neck with both hands..

“Ugh, gasp……!”

Lee Ho died slowly. Ilho trembled at the sight..

Baek Soo-ryong, who was squatting in front of Il-ho, whispered into his ear..

“Humans may be able to get used to pain, but they cannot get used to death. It's everyone's first time dying..”

“me, me, i…….”

Baek Soo-ryong struck Il-ho’s chest with the sheath of his sword..

Then, startled, Ilho screamed and fell backwards..

“Ughhh!”

Baek Soo-ryong looked at Il-ho, who looked pale and tired, and asked..

“I ask again. I want to live?”

“Yes, I want to live. I want to live!”

Ilho nodded without any hesitation..

I saw Saho, Samho, and Leeho die before my eyes..

Having lived my entire life as a killer, this isn't the first time I've seen my colleagues die..

But the fear Baek Soo-ryong showed him was on a different level..

‘I want to live. I don't want to die. If I die by this man... … Even your soul won't be saved.’

It was the first time in my entire life that I felt so afraid and wanted to live so desperately..

Tears flowed from Ilho’s eyes..

“Save me... … Please. please…….”

Baek Soo-ryong fell flat on his face and removed the sword from Il-ho's shoulder..

Before he knew it, the blood that had been sparkling in his eyes had faded away..

“If you want to live, you'll have to answer my questions well. Where do you belong??”

“Heh, Black Forest. It's a black forest.”

Ilho told everything he knew about the Black Forest..

How many people came here, how did they carry out the killings, and who is in charge?.

As the leader of a single group, Ilho didn't know much, but he did his best to answer in order to survive..

“We were exchanging signals by whistling earlier. how do you do that?”

“that…….”

White Water Dragon also discovered a means of communication known only to the assassins of the Black Forest..

‘This could come in handy.’

After a while, Ilho, who poured out all the information he knew, eventually collapsed from exhaustion..

“……It's terrible.”

A man walked out of the darkness of the alley..

he was clear.

Cheongcheon looked at the corpses, Ilho, and Baek Soo-ryong in turn with an expression of boredom..

“usually… … Was it a lifesaver??”

Looking at Baek Soo-ryong's cruel hand and actions just now, it was not unreasonable for Cheong-cheon to make such a guess..

However, Baek Soo-ryong shrugged his shoulders and answered indifferently..

“I've taught assassins in the past too..”

“under…….”

Cheongcheon had a face with many things he wanted to ask, but in the end he didn't ask anything..

Instead, he put Ilho on his shoulder as Baek Soo-ryong had asked..

“Can we just put this guy in jail??”

“I need to do you a favor. I might need a witness when this is all over..”

“i get it. I call the police to clean up the corpse..”

Cheongcheon looked around at the corpses and answered..

He wasn't very impressed with Baek Soo-ryong's murder..

All the dead were alive.

Scum who make it their business to kill people and get paid for it..

‘They're not worth pity.’

Cheongcheon turned his head and looked at Baek Soo-ryong, who was changing his clothes wearing the bast mask he had removed from Il-ho..

“Are you going to continue hunting??”

“That's how it should be. These guys don't listen.”

“……I thought I convinced a guy with my words a little while ago..”

Baek Su-ryong, who finished his disguise in an instant, looked back at Cheongcheon. Before he knew it, he had turned into a middle-aged woman..

“It takes a long time. It's not easy to create the same atmosphere as before. Besides, that method doesn't work for everyone..”

A middle-aged woman smiled kindly, hiding her secret in her sleeve..

“And there is an easier and faster way.”

“…….”

“See you later then.”

Baek Soo-ryong turned and waved his hand as he left the alley..

Cheongcheon looked at his shrinking back and muttered softly..

“Maybe he's the best assassin here..”

Cheongcheon once again felt fortunate that he did not turn that man into an enemy..

The white water dragon was no longer visible..

* * *

The assassins of the Black Forest suddenly fell into confusion..

Whick! Swish! Hwiik!

Whistling sounds coming from all directions.

It was originally a signal used only among the assassins of the Black Forest, but at some point it was being used by unknown enemies..

An unidentified enemy disturbed the assassins of the Black Forest with a whistle..

By the time the Black Forest assassins realized something was wrong, nearly half of them had already been harmed..

[Wait at current location!]

[Start by determining the location of your enemies.!]

[Don't panic. From now on, ignore the whistle signal..]

[Maintain spacing. Hide yourself from the crowd for now.]

The assassins who were hiding felt cold sweat running down their spines..

‘whoever?’

‘Any group that got close to the target was hit..’

‘This method… … . The opponent can also survive.’

‘There are at least three. Several people lost power at the same time.’

‘Are they blood thugs? Or maybe it's a living room…….’

Shooters are trained to maintain composure in any situation so as not to panic..

But no matter how much training I received, I couldn't help but be terrified when my colleagues were killed one by one by an unknown enemy..

Whining~

Even though it was just a light breeze, my body flinched..

No, unfortunately it wasn't a light wind this time..

“Even the black forest that I was proud of is nothing special..”

“!!”

When I heard a mocking voice in my ear, it was after a dagger had pierced my lungs..

deeply.

The shadow passed by Salsu and walked naturally..

“Sooner or later this party will wipe you out. to see from hell.”

Salsu, whose legs were weakened, looked at the opponent's back, which was becoming blurred..

‘room… … . They were blood thugs.!’

The assassin of the Black Forest pretended to fall and hid himself in the crowd..

The guy thought he was finished, but luckily he was stabbed about half an inch from his lung..

Salsu thought it was heavenly luck..

‘Hurry up and report to the three great lords…….’

The assassin of the Black Forest, who thought he had discovered the identity of the enemy, stumbled and went to the three major states..

he couldn't even imagine.

The assassin who had just stabbed himself in the side would say the same thing to the assassin in the blood chamber a little while later, with a slightly different wording..

* * *

Kwaang!

Sam Dae-ju, who broke the table with one blow, jumped up from his seat..

A fire seemed to burn brightly in his eyes..

“How dare these bloody bastards!”

He just received a report from his subordinate..

It was reported that the assassins sent to assassinate Gongsunsu were attacked, and that the assassins were bloodthirsty..

“It will come out like this.?”

It was expected that the three major murder organizations would compete with each other to take Gongsun Su's head first..

But I never thought they would attack me so blatantly..

This was tantamount to declaring war on the Black Forest..

As a Black Forest executive who usually looked down on the clan, it was something I could not tolerate..

“You guys started this first. I'll make you regret it.”

The three great rulers, who took this lightly, ordered all the waiting assassins to gather..

Since the clans fought first, I will kill them all and then take Gongsun Su's head..

The three great masters spoke with a deep expression of murder..

“I'll be there soon so tell everyone to wait..”

“honorary name!”

At the same time, something similar was happening in the blood room..

“Black Forest These bastards are crazy! mess with my kids!”

Hyeolbang Nanchang Branch.

The branch head of the blood room who received the report from this place, which is usually used as an underground gambling hall, screamed loudly..

“Call all the remaining kids! I'm going to kill them all!”

The branch manager took out a large ax hanging on the wall. His rugged body was full of scars and tattoos..

“To immediately tear off the proud face…….”

At that moment, there was a crashing sound and the door to the gambling house connected to the ground broke and something tumbled down..

The gatekeeper, who was supposed to be standing guard outside the gambling house, was unconscious and covered in blood..

“Wow, it's an attack.!”

“enemy!”

The rogues in the gambling hall all drew their weapons..

Since the number was well over fifty, the branch leader of the blood room shouted triumphantly towards the stairs..

“Where are these things? Come in, come in you bastards!”

After a while, someone slowly came down from the top of the stairs..

Jeez. Jeopuk.

Regular steps without a single error.

“you guys…….”

Hair and beard as white as snow, and dark jade-colored coat to match..

An old man with his back straight like a sword looked around the inside of the gambling hall with his back turned..

“Is this a group of human butchers called Hyeolbang??”

“crazy… … . What is that old man doing?!”

The branch leader of the clan raised his ax and shouted..

But cold sweat was dripping down his forehead..

‘He is a master. great expert.’

The old man saw that and clicked his tongue lightly..

“Seeing that everyone's eyes are filled with murder, I guess it's true..”

“Holy shit... … . Hit it!”

While dozens of ronin were shouting and rushing towards him, Geomchi Maegeukryeom slowly drew his sword..
