Episode 79
“It’s been a while. Taehyun Kim.”
The man said with his signature sinister smile.
“It’s the same until you go to Japan. “I never thought they would let someone like you go.”
Taehyun sighed and prepared to activate the skill.
At the same time, I looked at the movements of the demons who had not left their seats yet.
The man in front of me.
The goal was to immediately suppress all of them if Ryohei Isaka made even the slightest mistake.
‘The best thing to do is to suppress this guy the moment they leave…’
Taehyun frowned at the unexpected, uninvited guest.
Unlike himself, who has to hide his identity to track down the demons.
This is because Ryohei Isaka didn’t seem to care if people recognized him.
“Tsk tsk… You’re on guard. “Well, it wouldn’t be good for my identity to be discovered when I’m moving around disguised like this.”
Taehyun sighed softly at the common provocation.
He was an S-rank player in Japan who was called an evil spirit and had a reputation in other countries as well.
Because of Taehyeon, it was revealed that he had joined hands with Mine, and he lost all of the honor he had built up until now.
To prevent the country’s image from being tarnished, the association did not provide detailed reports.
It was a fact that everyone already knew.
The Japanese Players’ Association, conscious of the views of other countries’ player associations, has pledged several times regarding its disposition.
The person involved in such an incident is sitting calmly in front of him.
It was natural that Taehyun, who was a key character, found it absurd.
‘I heard that he had his license revoked and was sentenced to life imprisonment…’
Rather than his face being disfigured, Ryohei Isaka in front of me looked healthier than before.
“Taehyun Kim. No need to be nervous. “I didn’t come to fight, but to make a suggestion.”
“Stop talking nonsense. “Get out quietly when I let you go.”
Still keeping an eye on the movements of the demons.
Taehyun muttered briefly.
“Hey, why don’t you forget about the past and take a listen?”
“Tsk. I guess I should at least call an inspection team. “The guy who colluded with Mine has been walking around so confidently since this morning.”
“Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk.
Ryohei Isaka suddenly started laughing.
It was natural that the attention of those around him was focused.
“uh? Is that person…”
“Isn’t he Ryohei Isaka?”
“You said you suffered a serious injury and you’re okay?”
“No, I know that I was punished for being involved with demons?”
“Oh, really?”
“But who is with you?”
“I know. Is this your first time seeing this face? Are you Japanese?”
Taehyun gritted his teeth at Ryohei Isaka’s actions, which instantly attracted everyone’s attention.
The demons who were watching.
They recognized Ryohei Isaka and quietly got up from their seats.
“Tsk.”
It was when Taehyun tried to use the next best skill.
Ryohei Isaka unleashed his deadly force.
A life equivalent to an S-class intermediate player who has become stronger than before.
“Ugh… Ugh…”
“Ugh…”
It wasn’t much power for Taehyun, but it was enough to make the people in the cafe faint.
The same was true for the people who were just about to leave the cafe.
“The bag they have. And you’re targeting Kenji Miyazaki at the end, right?”
“….”
“Give me some time. “It won’t be a waste of time.”
Ryohei Isaka smiled grimly and strengthened his life.
Taehyun clicked his tongue at that confident attitude.
‘Still, let’s at least hear about what happened like this.’
Of course, if the content was not satisfactory, Ryohei Isaka would have to pay the price.
Tiring.
[Chains of Binding (B) have been activated. Specifies the target.]
Sigh.
The chains of magic instantly wrapped around Ryohei Isaka.
Since Taehyun’s magical power is much higher, it is impossible to use or cancel the skill.
It was truly a binding chain.
With Taehyun’s hand gestures, the chains began to gradually press on Ryohei Isaka’s body.
“I’ll give you one minute.”
“Kk…kkk… This brings back bad memories. But if you think about me back then…”
“50 seconds.”
“….”
Grumble.
Taehyun’s will made the chains tighten a little more.
Ryohei Isaka, who only then realized the situation he was in, swallowed his saliva and opened his mouth.
“Speak bluntly. “You can’t catch Kenji Miyazaki on your own.”
“40 seconds.”
“You are planning to capture Samrodu, right? But on the other hand, they also started paying attention to you. “They can’t be fooled with such a flimsy disguise.”
“30 seconds.”
“I assure you. Those passed out over there are just bait. If I had followed behind, hundreds of demons would have already dug a trap and been waiting. “No matter how much you do, you know that if the Triad moves, there will be damage to the surrounding area, right?”
“20 seconds.”
“Hold hands with me, Taehyun Kim. I know more about the Majin race than anyone else. Although they move in the shadows, they always keep the passage to the sun open. “I know the passage.”
“10 seconds.”
“Use me as bait. Kenji Miyazaki? He’s just one chess piece. To reach Samrodu, you have to overcome those chess pieces several times. how is it? Japan’s S-rank players and New Korea’s S-rank players join forces to catch Samrodu. It’s an offer that will do you no harm at all….”
“It’s time.”
Taehyun clenched the fist he raised in front of Ryohei Isaka.
Quad deuk. Crack. Quad deuk.
The chains, tightened to their limit, began to break Isaka Ryohei’s body little by little.
But Ryohei Isaka has acquired the power of an S-class intermediate player.
There was one thing I overlooked.
Taehyun’s growth rate is faster than expected.
Ryohei Isaka’s power was insufficient to block a skill that was activated with a magic power that had already exceeded 200.
“Ugh… Don’t do anything you’ll regret! “It’s impossible for you to deal with the Triads alone!!”
“It was a pretty tempting offer. however.”
Quad deuk. Quad deuk.
“Aaaah!!”
“Isn’t it strange?”
Quad deud deuk.
“I can’t believe the guy who didn’t find it strange that he was aiming for my head is instead claiming to be bait.”
“Huh…! that…!!”
It was only then that Ryohei Isaka realized the mistake he had made and was about to open his mouth.
Taehyun quietly shook his head.
Tiring.
[Complete Hypnosis (B) has been activated. Specifies the target.]
“Tell me. “Who is behind you?”
Inside the cafe everyone fainted and became quiet.
Taehyun’s eyes turned red.
Ryohei Isaka’s eyes were twisted in pain.
* * *
“Huh… Huh… Hmm….”
Ryohei Isaka was released from the skill.
His body fell straight onto the table.
“I was planning a fun plan.”
Taehyun was shocked when he saw the fallen Ryohei Isaka.
Information discovered through ‘complete hypnosis.’
There was a saint behind it and the predicament she was trying to get Taehyeon into by getting him involved with the triads.
If I hadn’t met Ryohei Isaka today, it wouldn’t have been surprising if it acted as a variable in the future.
‘Yoshikawa Tsurara. ‘This crazy woman will be dangerous if left alone.’
A person of national power level is watching for an opportunity.
Thinking about it that way, even Taehyun couldn’t help but be careful about his actions.
‘Damn it…’
At Taehyun’s words, Isaka Ryohei cursed.
I only lost consciousness for a moment.
Because I know for sure that Taehyun was going through his mind in that moment.
If the skill had lasted a little longer, it would have been a pain.
‘You monster…’
I thought the gap would have been bridged now that I received the saint’s power.
It was a mistake.
Taehyun was no longer an opponent he could do anything about.
This gap is similar.
‘Are you saying that you are at the same national power level as Tsurara-sama… Chicksho…’
While Ryohei Isaka was catching his breath.
Taehyun’s earrings, which he had probably taken out before he knew it, were in Taehyun’s hands.
“Oh, and this is confiscation. “Wouldn’t it be difficult to even contact that snake-like woman?”
“….”
“If you refuse, I will feel bad for saving your life.”
Ryohei Isaka lowered his head at Taehyun’s fluent Japanese.
It was not a request or recommendation.
A unilateral order from someone who can take his life at any time.
The answer he could give was already decided.
“I understand….”
“Okay. Yesterday’s enemy is today’s comrade. This is true. “He’ll be a good partner.”
“….”
Ryohei Isaka’s expression darkened like never before.
Something is going wrong.
However, looking at the current situation.
There was nothing he could do.
‘As it is… the awakened person’s oath with Tsurara…’ An
absolute promise made in exchange for receiving her power.
Thinking of that risk, Ryohei Isaka’s body trembled.
However.
It seems as if his circumstances are none of his business.
“Welcome aboard the train to hell. devil.”
It was Taehyun, shaking his hand and smiling kindly.
* * *
An abandoned factory in Tokyo.
A man was swinging a pure white sword against dozens of demons.
Sigh. Okay.
“Blood damage…”
“Ear, demon, sword… Ugh…”
Shinji Nakata, Japan’s national power player and representative of friendly competition.
Dozens of demons ended their lives following the sword he wielded.
Sreung. Percussion.
It only took 10 seconds to pull out the beloved sword Byakuya and put it back.
Although he only swung the sword five times.
dump. dump. Degururu.
A torso with a head cut in half, a separated torso with an unknown shape, etc.
Pieces of the lifeless body were later scattered around.
At that time, Shinji Nakata was about to call the forensics team.
Clap clap clap.
“As expected, it is a ghost sword. Incredible.”
A national power player in Japan who is revered as a saint.
Yoshikawa Tsurara entered the abandoned factory clapping.
“Did your work go well?”
“yes. “Thank you.”
“Thank goodness. “I’m sorry I couldn’t help you.”
“Ho Ho. “The ghost still sees me as a little girl.”
“….”
The saint smiled as she looked at Shinji Nakata, who neither confirmed nor denied.
“I heard that the number of demons cut while I was away exceeds a hundred. “I think that’s enough for today.”
“It is difficult to say that the point is still stable.”
Shinji Nakata shook his head and said.
The points of New Korea and China are rising sharply.
If the reins were to delay the chase here, the gap would widen, making it difficult to catch up.
“it’s okay. “Our ultimate goal isn’t winning anyway, right?”
“….”
“There is already enough evidence that China is recapturing the released mines. “If you make a formal complaint in the future, you will be disqualified from winning.”
“It’s China, but… New Korea is also a formidable force. In particular, the actions of a guy named Kim Tae-hyun….”
“Ah. He doesn’t have to worry. “Because I’ve already done the work.”
“…?”
“devil. It gave him strength.”
Shinji Nakata sighed softly at those words.
The saintess raised her eyebrows at the expected reaction.
“An opponent I have already defeated once. Even if I had my powers, it wouldn’t be enough for me to be a demon. “You think so.”
“….”
Shinji Nakata answered in silence.
“Hehe. But it’s a ghost. A mouse that is pushed to the very end will bite even a cat. I have no doubt that demons will show such grit. so.”
side.
The saintess who kissed Shinji Nakata on the lips turned around.
“We just have to enjoy this murderous competition. More than that, the weather is really nice today.”
“….”
A saintess smiling brightly.
Shinji Nakata looked at the scene in silence for a moment and then quietly followed behind.
