The Genius Assassin Who Does It All Himself

Wuthering Heights (1)

I decided to get the right to attack the Hill of Storms dungeon.

They also said that the sooner the better, the sooner they applied for the advance attack, so I applied through Lee Ye-rin on the spot.

Approval came after 12 hours.

It was regrettable that I had to enter at 9:00 pm, but I accepted it because I couldn’t set the time to my liking.

“It’s a dungeon owned by our mercenary group, and it’s a dungeon that always puts a guard at the entrance.”

“At least we can find out if there is an intruder.”

“Yes. Even if it’s determined and doesn’t prevent outside forces from intervening, at least you can tell if it’s behind.”

“That’s enough.”

Kang Hu nodded.

It’s not uncommon to enter a dungeon that someone else is attacking, aim for, and die on the contrary.

“Should we talk about the next request?”

“However much.”

“Actually, the first request was a test in nature. Usually, half of it is filtered through the entrance cut here…”

Nuance’s words that he had passed the request with a 50% survival rate sounded odd.

Of course, the mercenary request was made on the premise that he could die at any time.

It was unusual to give a request with the possibility of death and treat it lightly as a test.

Perhaps such a cold and calculating mind is what made Lee Ye-rin’s mercenary group with a high success rate in ‘advanced commissions’.

“Anyway, I guess that means it went well. Let’s get right to the point.”

“You said you wanted to accept a wanted man request with a pretty bounty, right?”

“yes.”

“I removed the good candidates from the list. It won’t be a tough opponent. Finding it will be a problem.”

“Let’s see.”

I went through the list.

Among the hunters who received the wanted quest, there was a name that stood out.

‘Heo Jeong-tae.’

He is a character who appears at the end of the original story.

In the process of making a bad ending, it was mentioned that he was actually a killer that Jang Si-hwan secretly used.

The link was revealed later in the ending…

Until then, Heo Jeong-tae had a history of killing many hunters who were considered ‘just’.

was a killer

Until right before the ending, the main character, Jang Si-hwan, only recognized the existence of Heo Jeong-tae.

The actual order to kill was that Jang Si-hwan’s close friend and collaborator, Chae Kwan-hyung, took charge.

However, the reason Heo Jeong-tae was given a bounty today was not murder.

It was wanted for the theft of the ‘dungeon stability sensor’ from the Gapyeong Hunter Public Security Office.

It is not enough to be called a felon, and the crime of theft of state property is applied to treat it as a petty criminal.

In this way, it seemed that each mercenary group had an individual wanted request.

So, the main body that paid the compensation was the Hunter Public Security Agency.

In effect, it is a bounty from the state guarantee.

[The base of Heo Jeong-tae, who could not find a base in the end, was absurdly near Yangpyeong Station.

He lived in Munseong Villa, only 500m from the Hunter Public Security Office in Yangpyeong Station.

But it was dark under the lamp. The hunters of the incompetent National Security Agency could not catch him until the end.]

Perhaps because it was written at the end of the original story, I remembered the description of Heo Jeong-tae without making a single mistake.

As I remembered the details of the buildings and scenery around the residence, it seemed that the location would be identified soon.

“Are you interested in Heo Jeong-tae?”

“yes. The fact that he likes to use windows is also a bit interesting. It’s good to target someone who has to take a wide and long line of attack.”

Ganghu attached a suitable reason.

In fact, I thought I would know where it was right away, so the one I picked accounted for more than 90% of the choice.

“The reward is a bounty of 300 million won and a 1-month lease for dungeons below level 100. However, there are conditions.”

“Captured alive?”

“that’s right.”

“Hagi, since the Public Security Agency has officially issued a manhunt, private punishment will be impossible.”

“It wasn’t even murder in the first place.”

The reward itself was quite appetizing.

Of course, I thought I would have to buy a pair of handcuffs to use in case of an emergency before going there to capture him alive.

It’s not because I’m dragging a clumsy neighborhood bully.

The opponent is a hunter who can counterattack at any time.

“I take orders from him.”

“Are you okay? In fact, he’s also the hardest one to find out where he is…”

“It belongs to me.”

Kang Hu said firmly.

However, the order to visit Heo Jeong-tae was decided after clearing the Hill of Storms dungeon.

It was because it seemed that if I planned a good strategy route, I would be able to reach level 30 in the dungeon.

Then, you can get ‘Acceleration’, the basic skill of Assassin level 30.

It’s a simple speed-up mechanism, but that’s why it was also a necessary skill.

‘If I take care of Heo Jeong-tae, it seems to be a good butterfly effect.’

This is how it is.

Looking at the level estimation information, it is said to be around 100.

At that point, it was well worth the effort. It has the power to do so.

After accepting the request, Kang-hu sold all the useless 9th grade items to Lee Ye-rin.

The transaction was quickly completed at a fixed price without bargaining, and 250 million won was settled immediately.

And I contacted Master K, the only solarium seller in Korea.

As it is located in ‘Ground Zero’, which is far from going there in person, I decided to pick it up at Gapyeong Station with quick delivery.

A total of 10 purchases, the price is 50 million won. It’s a crazy price, but I bought it because it’s an indispensable item.

He said that this was also because the cultivation at Kay’s house had been completed a while ago, and the price was released at a low price.

If the secured stock is depleted by more than half, the price jumps by more than 50%.

So, the balance is 200 million.

Before going to Gapyeong Station, Ganghu made a plan to stop by the black market and buy a dagger item with the money he had left.

The training dagger he currently possesses has very low strength and is not suitable for hunting.

Above all, I could afford to buy enough level 5 daggers, but not buying the main weapon was a loss.

after completing the transaction.

Before leaving Daejeon Station, Ganghu had a short farewell with Yoon Sang-mi.

Actually, I wondered if we would ever meet again, but her thoughts were a little different.

“If you are a mercenary with skills like Seon-gyu, there will be many places to look for in the future. See you again. I hope to see you soon.”

“I don’t want to see you as an enemy.”

“Ho Ho. It can’t be. Anyway, if you have any useful information, I would like to share it. Can you give me your phone number?”

“Give me your number. Call me if you need me.”

“······It’s an unlucky comment, but do you know that it sounds cool?”

“I told you not to listen.”

At Kang-hu’s words, Yoon Sang-mi handed her a business card.

At the same time, he looked at Kang-hoo with a suspicious look, but he really didn’t give her his contact number.

“Please contact me! Just everyday conversation is good, so anytime!”

Just like in the morning

Kang-hu did not respond to Yoon Sang-mi’s words, but turned around and waved his hand instead of all greetings.

Arriving at Daejeon Station, Ganghu bought a ticket to Yongsan Station first. I had to change to ITX there.

I thought the situation would become serious even at the station because of the Eclipse last night, but it seems that the probation was over soon.

Of course, just because the probation is over doesn’t mean it’s over with a happy ending.

It means that the situation ended quickly, and a number of Hunters in Club Hades were taken somewhere.

There was a high possibility that they were loaded onto a human trafficking cargo ship heading to the Cheongmyeong concentration camp as close as possible or as far away as overseas.

Either result is the worst, but the former is the best. You can live only through words.

And unlike the Cheongmyeong camp, where people are fed to meet the minimum nutritional recommendations, the story is completely different overseas.

at that time.

The little boy who was waiting for the train to Yongsan next to Kang Hu jumped up and shouted.

“exciting! Excited…!”

Next to the child was a couple who looked one or two years older than Kang-hoo, who was 29 this year.

“Siyun-ah. Are you that excited?”

“Yes, Mom! If you go to Seoul, you can go eat chicken at night now, right?”

“then! of course! In Seoul, Siyoon will be able to do whatever she wants!”

“Wow! Really exciting!”

The child’s cheers were understandable.

Seoul, where all the personnel of the Hunter Police Agency are gathered, is so safe that it dares to challenge ‘zero crime rate’.

Ironically, in return, they virtually gave up areas outside the metropolitan area.

“…”

Looking at the happy family of three, Kang Hu made a strange expression.

I wonder if those three will be really happy.

It was a natural reaction for Kang-hu, who had no inspiration or memory for the word family.

Anyway, that family going to Seoul will no longer have to worry about walking the streets at night.

There was also a corner where parents seemed to be sorry for making a big decision for their child.

“No matter what happens in Seoul, Hunter Jang Si-hwan, as well as the Hunter Police Agency, will protect you.”

And the name I didn’t want to hear came through the mouth of the child’s father.

The belief of civilians that goes beyond simple belief and is close to blind faith.

That is the gaze of the world looking at Jang Si-hwan.

After that, if you stand at his opposite point, the gaze turned 180 degrees will be focused on you.

– A train leaving for Yongsan is scheduled to arrive soon. Passengers…

A train was coming.

For the first time since waking up in the Cheongmyeong Prison Camp, I had a chance to go to another place via the Seoul area.

* * *

that time.

A woman who came to the Cheongmyeong camp was having a one-on-one interview with Lee Taek-geun, the director of the camp.

Lee Taek-geun was in charge of the entire Cheongmyeong camp, but he kept a perfect low profile in front of women.

“Chief Lee, this time. Don’t you think it’s very strange?”

Impressive with black hair and short C-curls, she looked at Lee Taek-geun with contempt with her arms crossed.

Cha So-hee.

He was the 3rd in Eclipse’s rank and the confidant sent by Kang Dong-hyun, and he was the person in charge of the full-scale investigation into Kang Hu.

The level was 250, so no matter what organization you went to, you could easily enter the upper ranks.

“It is very strange.”

“Isn’t it? It’s a hunter who even checked the level and confirmed that he was level 10 before enlistment. After Xinjiang.”

“Yes, that’s right.”

“How can a hunter who has never been near a dungeon besides manastone mining be so different?”

“…”

“One level 2 guard, two level 3 guards. He also killed the ‘chaser’ who had the constellation attached to it.”

“Yes, as a result of the post-mortem investigation, it is judged that he was injured without using his hand properly.”

“No matter how you think about it, the front and back of the information doesn’t match. Information about Xinjianghu, isn’t it missing?”

The arrow of suspicion shot by Cha So-hee was directed at Lee Taek-geun, not Kang-hu.

No matter how much I thought about it, when I looked at the faces of the victims, there was no way that Ganghu’s level was 10.

In the meantime, this kind of thing has always existed, and each time Cha So-hee has filled in the data while investigating the scene.

But this time, the basic premise didn’t make sense.

Level 10 can’t produce this kind of power. Even if you die and wake up.
