number of gambles

“Hey, this is what happened.”

Junhyeok Kim, who was trapped in the hands of the devil, chuckled in a carefree tone.

The root of the problem was that he kept getting curious about what he was showing and did a moderate amount of hand-to-hand.

“I never thought I would bring out the 7th tier dark magic. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen such a dark magician. It’s like using a gun, what the hell are you doing?”

Once caught by this ‘Devil’s Hand’, there was no way to get out alive other than hunting all the hundreds of mid-to-higher monsters in the pitch-dark subspace.

In addition, if the victim is a light attribute, it is a troublesome summoning magic that even imposes a penalty on physical ability.

“What is it? I can hear you, this.”

However, as if not knowing what the penalty was, he lightly swung the magic spear and scratched the back of his head.

Before he knew it, his close range was full of strange monsters that coveted human meat.

“I don’t know~. me too.”

Kim Jun-hyeok grabbed the spear and took a stance.

“Let’s get out of here for now.”

His new model was launched at a speed different from that of earlier.

.

.

.

“Ah, Kim Jun-hyeok’s magic signal… has been disconnected.”

When a subordinate reported in a trembling voice, Manager Lim blinked as if he had heard it.

“what? What did you say now?”

“Device device, Kim Jun-hyeok!”

“Hey you bastard, there’s no way that’s the case!”

Manager Lim grabbed the employee by the collar and screamed.

“So you’re saying that Kim Jun-hyeok was beaten! That mad dog of the Han River?!”

“I don’t know too well… But the signal is down and communication is down!”

“Oh no, no f*cking!!!”

Manager Lim, who threw him away, grabbed his hair and gnashed his teeth.

Other employees who were hiding there and watching this started whispering.

“what···? Did you just say that Kim Jun-hyeok was victimized?”

“Nonsense. Is that Kim Jun-hyeok? Didn’t you say they weren’t even on the list?”

“Are you kidding?”

“Wait then… aren’t we dangerous too?”

Their attention was drawn to the words of one employee.

“Ah, no, isn’t it? It was not enough that all the kids who entered were wiped out, and even Kim Jun-hyeok was killed.”

At his words, the staff swallowed their saliva.

“We are now… actually touching someone we shouldn’t be touching…”

Then, as if they had been waiting, agitation begins to spread.

Noticing this, Manager Lim quickly grabbed the employee by the collar and punched him in the chin.

“This bastard…!”

“And, chief…!”

“now!”

“Ouch! 100 million!”

“Drilled! Mouth!”

The one-sided assault continued until the employee was covered in blood, but no one on the spot dared to stop him.

Lim, who had already lost consciousness, kicked him three or four more times.

“Heejin Kang! What are you going to do with this?!”

[what.]

“If you received 1.5 billion won and ate it, you wouldn’t have to work!”

He shouted as he turned his head in the direction Kang Hee-jin was supposed to be.

“You know that your colleague Kim Jun-hyeok missed them?! Then shouldn’t you come and do something?!”

[···? That’s outside the scope of the request.]

“what?!”

[Anyway, Kim Jun-hyuk, the only request I received is to shoot the lesser pandas coming out of the building.]

An emotionless woman’s voice pierced his ears.

[If you want additional services, pay more for that. I just hang up.]

At the one-sided communication cut off, Manager Lim kicked the car next to him like a madman.

“Damn it…! This is why freelance bastards!”

But soon fear and worry came flooding in.

‘What should I do?’

His eyes trembled.

‘Where did these guys come from? That too! At times like this!’

At first, it was obviously a piece of cake.

In addition, the work passed through the hands of Choi Jin-seong, a member of the royal family. It must have been like a rope that came down from the sky.

I thought it would be a great opportunity to get promoted and maybe move to a higher place out of Xenon Security.

But how could he have predicted that it would have been a rotten rope.

Manager Lim thought of Choi Si-yoon and Lee A-rin in the warehouse.

His fists trembled.

.

.

.

Lee Ah-rin looked at the devil’s hand that had swallowed Kim Jun-hyeok and swallowed without realizing it.

‘7th rank…’

Even he, who was called a genius, was still at the limit of 5th tier magic. It was difficult to understand the magic formula from the 6th rank prior to the ability.

There is a dark attribute that is rarer than light.

It was unusual from the point of handling a gun, but using the 7th tier dark magic was really beyond imagination.

For a moment, she even thought that maybe the man next to her was only in disguise, and that he was actually a bigger mogul than she thought.

Meanwhile, as the devil’s hand disappeared along with the gate, Siyoon let out the breath he had been holding.

At the same time, an overwhelming sense of exhaustion swept over his entire body.

‘I took almost all of my mana!’

Not only that. Along with extreme dizziness, a sharp pain that seemed like the whole body would be torn apart spread to the center of the heart.

“Gagging…!”

He just instinctively felt it.

If it wasn’t for the ‘iron body’, he would have died as a reward for coveting magic beyond his capabilities, or he would have had aftereffects of being semi-impaired for the rest of his life.

“Are you okay?!”

Iarin approached and examined his pale complexion.

She looked like she wanted to ask a lot, but she didn’t bother to say anything.

“…This should be able to tie him down for a while.”

Siyoon spat out the words with difficulty.

However, if it is that monster, it will escape the subspace sooner or later.

I had to get out of here as quickly as possible.

Siyoon took a breath again. Fortunately, the iron body was strong and resilient.

“Are you really going to be okay?”

“I can’t help it even if it’s not okay.”

He said, carrying the fainting man on his back.

“Because it works.”

“…”

Iarin, who was looking up at him, said while carrying a lesser panda on her back.

“You are different.”

“what?”

“Nothing.”

“…?”

The people she had seen so far, who did similar things to the man in front of her, hadn’t had this strong of a sense of responsibility. There were even fewer people who could be trusted.

She knew that well, so she came here herself.

But he was… something different.

“greatness.”

She coughed slightly.

Soon they went down to the basement of the warehouse and moved along a tunnel presumably used by forklifts.

Fortunately, there was nothing stopping them, probably not familiar with the structure of the warehouse complex.

‘He’s incompetent.’

It was his simple sentiment towards the head of Zenon Security, who was unknown.

At least if you were going to siege, getting a structural drawing of the building you were going to siege was the basic of the basics.

“But… how do you plan to get out?”

Iarin’s question was valid.

Anyway, it was because the warehouse complex was highly likely to be within the effective range of archer Kang Hee-jin.

Anyway, to go to Namyangju, I had to go outside eventually, but as long as Kang Hee-jin was there, that was impossible.

There, Siyoon calmed down and said.

“It’s a gamble, but… there’s a way.”

“Wesley…”

Iarin, who chose her words for a moment, followed him up the stairs and said.

“You always have a plan.”

“That’s my charm.”

“ha ha ha.”

There, Iarin burst into a clear smile for the first time since appearing as Eugene.

It wasn’t common distribution to be able to make such a joke in such a situation and in such a physical state.

“Really… I think I met a strange person in an unexpected place.”

“It would be difficult if you fell for it.”

It was Lee Arin who thought that her gender was revealed because she had already heard the scream.

In reality, everything was exposed, but she, unaware of this, laughed.

“How can you fall in love when you can’t even see your face properly?”

“Surprised. How old were you?”

“It doesn’t mean that.”

she shot.

“It was very unfortunate. Saying I’m handsome again.”

“I’m very sorry about that.”

Whether or not it was just a comment, Iarin was confident that she wouldn’t be surprised at all even if the man in front of her was in fact very handsome.

She remembered Choi Si-yoon, the first time she saw her at the dinner party.

No matter how handsome he was, it was unlikely that this man would be more handsome than Choi Si-yoon.

Of course, she had no idea that the two were the same person.

“I’ll put it down here for now.”

Climbing up to the warehouse as close to the bridge as possible, they each put the people they were carrying on their backs to the floor.

“Uh, uh uh…”

“The condition is getting more and more serious…”

Iarin looked at the man and said.

In the case of the lesser panda, her breathing was more constant than before, but her father didn’t really seem to be far from the limit anymore.

At that point, Siyoon realized that the time had come to execute the gambler he had planned.

There was a chance of failure, but if you succeed, maybe it was a way for the lesser panda to be safe.

Siyoon recalled what the man had casually said in the sewer.

[The cost of messing with the royal family is high. Even if we leave this city now… As long as the ‘Lesser Panda’ is alive, they will follow us to the end of hell.]

[Maybe the only way to truly get out of this place is death.]

Those words meant a lot.

Maybe he was thinking of being killed in front of them at the last moment.

If the only way for ‘Lesser Pandas’ to escape from their pursuit was death, then death was the way to go.

Although he will die, his stepdaughter, the real lesser panda, will be safe.

Even if Choi Si-yoon thinks, if the goal is to save only the ‘lesser panda’, that was a strategy that was effective enough even if it was cold.

However, Choi Si-yoon decided to go one step further.

he took a small deep breath.

‘A while ago, it was proven that my hypothesis was correct.’

In fact, didn’t he realize even the 7th tier magic by forming a magic circle on the floor through bullets as a medium?

So it could have been done this time too.

“Will you step aside for a moment?”

When Iarin stepped back, Siyoon placed six revolver bullets in a circle around him.

Then he looked up at her and said.

“Please do me a favor.”

“If you need anything, tell me.”

“I’d like you to share some of your mana.”

“…?”

Iarin, who tilted her head for a moment, was startled and then suddenly took a defensive posture.

“That, what is that… No!”

“…? No, didn’t you just tell me to say something?”

“There is no difference between that and this!”

Even she couldn’t help but be embarrassed by this.

It was because the sharing of magical power was usually done through bodily fluids such as saliva.

In other words, sharing bodily fluids… Thinking that far, she quickly shook her head.

it didn’t even die

Seeing this, Siyoon frowned.

“It doesn’t wear out, so I don’t know what’s so special about it.”

“…is that the end of the will?”

“It’s okay, why don’t you put your hand up.”

“hand?”

Grabbing Ia-rin’s left hand, he took out the dagger he had previously stolen from wanted criminal Kwon Ji-hoon.

“Aww.”

He cut his index finger just enough to bleed slightly, and soon after, he also plucked his own finger and put their wounds together.

Irene was silent.

It was. Blood was also a bodily fluid.

“…Ah, that’s it, this way.”

Siyoon clicked his tongue there. All of these women are good, but sometimes this kind of sloppiness was a problem.

“Did you really only hear the basket in your head?”

Irene’s face turned red.

Although it was temporary, he shared magic with her, and he felt a certain amount of magic flow into his body.

Her mana, which had various attributes, soon circulated through his body and gradually changed its color.

As soon as all the mana became his own, Choi Si-yoon turned his gaze to the man lying in the center.

Before long, he began channeling mana into the six revolvers.

.

.

.

20km away from the warehouse complex.

Kang Hee-jin, who was watching the warehouse complex from the rooftop of a skyscraper as if bored, raised her eyebrows.

“Well?”

Eventually, the magnification magic overlaps over the demon palace and expands the warehouse building.

Logistics warehouse closest to the bridge leading to Namyangju. In front of the door, I saw someone wearing sunglasses and a man arguing.

‘Lesser Panda?’

That middle-aged man clearly looked like the lesser panda she had seen in pictures.

Tilting her head slightly, she leaned the arrow on the string and pulled it straight.

The lesser panda seemed to be yelling something at Sunglasses over her unconscious daughter.

The man in sunglasses grabbed his arm, but the lesser panda shook it off and slipped out of the warehouse.

But she didn’t miss that moment.

‘Compression, penetration, strengthening.’

Multiple spells are overlapped on top of the black arrow, and explosive magic is loaded.

At the same time, protests leaving her hands.

Then, as if they had waited, the arrow shot along with the bursting shock wave soon became a dark red flash and crossed the dawn sky.

And nothing to see the results.

The arrow pierced the ground, not enough to crush the half body of the red panda as it is.

The panicked sunglasses drag the falling lesser panda back into the warehouse, but it’s already too late.

As far as she knew, it was no longer human to survive even if half of the body was blown away.

Kang Hee-jin, who confirmed that, sent a message to Lim.

“I confirmed the death of the lesser panda.”
