Episode 13
* * *
Turn back time for a moment, one hour ago.
Dan Woo-hyeon, who had sent Jang Sam-tae away, was standing there looking around. I engraved each face full of caution and strongly suppressed my rising anger.
If you put your mind to it, cleaning up all the trash in front of you would be no problem, but simply venting your anger doesn’t help.
Once you start, you have to pull out the roots.
Therefore, I had no intention of leaving them alone.
“There are traces of systematically learning martial arts, so they are not ordinary guys. For a subordinate of a dark merchant, his movements are amazing. “Where do they come from?”
‘Ugh!’
Dan Woo-hyeon’s lightly uttered words shook the men’s minds. My mind was greatly shaken and I even felt a sense of becoming distant.
The eyes of his colleagues who were looking at him were already dispirited.
Also, Dan Woo-hyeon was hitting the nail on the head.
For a moment, I got goosebumps and even the blood drained from my face.
It seemed as if the author was reading everything.
“What…” What are you saying…”.”
“It looks like there are people watching out for the undercover dealers… Seeing that they don’t want to answer, their will is truly incredible.”
Dan Woo-hyeon sarcastically moved his hands.
puck!
In an instant, the body of a man who was standing there flew backwards and crashed into a tree.
The man, who had been hit by an invisible attack, collapsed as if a force of a different dimension had shattered every bone in his body.
I was breathing, but I couldn’t move a finger.
Because every bone in my body was broken.
I could no longer hold a sword and living like a human seemed impossible.
……..
“I ask again, who are you?”
Although a thousand years have passed, there are some things that have not changed. That’s exactly what happened in the shadows, but if you’re a big black dealer, there’s bound to be some organization that looks after you.
There is no one more easily targeted by power than a secret dealer.
It was highly likely that they also gave the order to capture Jang Sam-tae. This is because the black merchant would have suffered a huge loss when he was caught and killed.
“Do you think I’ll tell you?”
“Then I guess it exists.”
“Ugh!”
Dan Woohyun chuckled.
Seeing that he didn’t say anything even though he was pushed to this level, it seemed like he was a person with considerable influence.
So, should we make it a little easier to open our mouths?
Dan Woo-hyeon clenched his fists, his eyes shining like a beast about to prey.
* * 5k County Commander Hong Won-chang led the police officers and moved.
I heard that a fight broke out between martial arts people in that neighborhood, so I had to stop the fight before others got hurt.
Finally, the moment he arrived at the place, he saw it.
“omg?!”
About twenty figures were crawling on the floor.
There was not a single person who looked fine.
Those covered in blood were moaning and could not move. At that moment, when even the police officers who were watching could not help but be embarrassed, Hong Won-chang discovered the cause of this incident.
“Huh?!”
Why is the author here?
A man who makes your stomach tingle just by looking at him.
Hong Won-chang made up his mind by stopping the police officers who were trying to move forward. I took a long deep breath and smiled heartily.
“Hehe… Hehe Daehyup, this is a fishy thing…”
The police officers who saw that were scared.
Who is Hong Won-chang? Thanks to his recent successive achievements and heightened status, it is no exaggeration to say that he is the most powerful person in the Honam area, excluding the royal family.
By capturing Changbai Mountain and recovering Wang Bu’s Buddha statue, he gained the trust of the imperial family and Wang Bu, and perhaps could now be called to the center and stand at the center of power.
Why is such a person so servile?
“°1 Hey do you know who the author is?”
The police officers who knew nothing asked the other police officers who were quiet. They were the ones who found out what kind of person Dan Woo-hyeon was during the last Buddha statue incident.
They turned their heads without saying a word.
There are times when you have to pretend not to know even though you know.
Now is the time.
If you say something meaningless, the wise spirit will beat you to death.
At that time, Dan Woo-hyeon opened his mouth, pointing to the trash around him.
“These are people who attempted kidnapping and murder. “They say they are the remnants of the last dark dealer.”
“Are you talking about these guys!? “What are you doing? Arrest me quickly!”
“yes!”
They didn’t even check if it was true or false. Even if it’s a lie, it has to be the truth.
Whether it was true or not didn’t matter to Hong Won-chang, who was in a position to look even a little better to Dan Woo-hyeon.
“Hehehe,
please leave these guys to me…”
“Yes, but do you know about the people called the Black Demon Club?”
“Huh…. Black City Club?… Ah!”
It was a name I had heard of before.
The Heukdohoe was one of countless organizations in the Central Plains.
I heard that it was a place where rogues and criminals came together and that they had considerable skills.
Because it committed all kinds of crimes, it was an organization that caused quite a bit of trouble not only for the Murim League but also for the imperial family.
However, because it operates so secretly and it is difficult to even catch its tail, it has been neglected and avoided for the past several decades.
There were even rumors going around that the reason Jangbaeksan commanded the Honam area was related to the Heukdohoe.
How could such people’s names come out of Dan Woo-hyeon’s mouth?
“Seo… really?”
“These guys and the dead underworld dealer are the henchmen of the Black City.”
“omg’?!”
If that were true, it would have been even more amazing.
Perhaps it was also an opportunity to make a big enough contribution to be called to the center. Hong Won-chang swallowed his dry saliva and looked at Dan Woo-hyeon.
“I heard there is a Honam branch there in Hyeongsan.”
At most, one could say that just hitting on a branch would do the trick, but considering that no one has even found that branch so far, this information was like a fortune in gold.
However, there was a problem. Although they were martial arts people, Hong Won-chang and the police officers were merely officials.
No matter how many troops are mobilized, there is no answer if each martial artist cuts down 15 people at a time. That’s why I glanced at Dan Woo-hyeon.
“I have something to pay them back… I will help you.”
“thank you! Thank you Daehyup!”
Hong Won-chang repeatedly bowed his head and showed respect.
The laughter never left.
It really seemed like the day when I would be called to the center wasn’t far away.
Yang Hyuk-sang, the owner of the Honam branch of the Hyeongsan Black Island Association, was in a particularly bad mood today. Things went wrong when the undercover person who had been secretly watching the scene was caught by the prefect.
I had to report it to the authorities, but to do so, I needed blood money to avoid punishment.
So he told me to catch him.
This is the guy who made the last deal with the undercover dealer.
But why can’t my anxious feelings go away? I knew it wouldn’t be easy to find him. Because I couldn’t even find a trace of it for a month.
But a little while ago, Jeon Seo-gu flew in.
They found him, and
since he was a thief, it was already way past time to bring him in.
However, there has been no call yet to say they have been caught and they have not returned, so Yang Hyuk-sang is left worrying alone.
“What on earth happened! “Why haven’t you contacted me?”
“Wouldn’t you come soon?”
“There is already chaos up there! How much money and time did we spend on that black dealer? Even if you catch that thief right away and twist his neck, it won’t help…
“Don’t worry. Not everyone else, but the elite of the elite went. Unless that thief is a master at saving money, there can be no mistake.”
“Tsk…”
Ji Hoiju shouted nervously and sat down.
Nothing has been going right lately. The undercover merchant was also bewildered by how long it had been since Jang Baek-san, who was looking after him, was captured.
In a strange way, things seemed to be going wrong.
In a bad way.
It was then.
bang-! bang-!
Suddenly a loud sound was heard.
Yang Hyuk-sang was startled by the sound that shook the heavens and earth and stood up.
When he looked at his subordinates with wide eyes, they all had puzzled expressions as if they did not understand what was happening.
“Go check it out!”
“Yeah!”
For some reason, there wasn’t a single one I liked. At the moment, the subordinates are clucking their tongues and frowning at their pitiful situation, as they are not even able to understand the situation properly.
One of the subordinates who had gone out hurriedly came inside.
“What happened!”
“I’m in big trouble! “Po”…pozole and monster…monster!”
” ok?”
“Police… Posols and monsters…
“What nonsense are you talking about, you crazy guy!”
“Pozols and monsters are coming!”
“What do you mean?”
Quack boom-!
The loud drinking that was heard in succession was truly no joke. It was a funny thing to say, but it made me wonder if there really was a monster running towards me.
But where is this?
It is a branch of the Black Island Association.
There had been no intruders so far, and there was nothing to worry about as those guarding the inside were also top-notch experts.
Yang Hyuk-sang frowned and hurried outside.
Bang bang!
Even then, the loud noise continued to be heard.
There was also a mixture of screaming and moaning. But Yang Hyuk-sang thought it was the other person’s scream.
Unless they send an elite unit from somewhere like the Murim Alliance, there is no way they can be defeated.
Finally, the moment he leisurely went outside.
“Huh?!”
I had to see it with my own two eyes.
Although this place looked ordinary on the outside, it was a manor built on top of several layers of ginbeop.
There was no way for most people to break in, and even if they did, there was no way they would survive.
However, the manor’s wall collapsed and the more than 100 men guarding the inside were scattered everywhere.
And at the center of it all was a man.
When he waved his hand, two or three people fell, and when he stamped his foot, the ground cracked and the men were buried.
It felt like a child’s play in front of a top-notch, naive man.
“What… what…!”
“Hoe Lord! Avoid!”
“Hey you crazy guy! “What if I say it out loud?!”
As soon as they heard the shout to avoid, not only the company but also the police officers standing behind them looked at Yang Hyuk-sang.
Dozens of pairs of eyes were filled with the determination not to miss out.
“Great! It’s him! “That guy is clearly the culprit.”
“know.”
Burbubbuk!
Dan Woo-hyeon moved his hands lightly. Then, the warriors of the Black Swordsman who were approaching while hiding secretly flew away with the sound of a watermelon breaking and fell to the ground.
Rattling….
The police officers and Hong Won-chang, who already knew Dan Woo-hyeon’s power, looked on with excited expressions, but those who witnessed it for the first time were just dumbfounded and trembled at the overwhelming power.
“What are you…”
“If you want to run away, go somewhere. I’ve recently developed a hobby for chasing things. Because of a certain thief…”
Dan Woo-hyeon said with a chuckle, but no one heard him.
It was as if the thick life contained in those words was tying my feet in place and preventing me from moving.
In the end, I had to give up everything.
As if he felt it, Dan Woohyun opened his mouth again.
“Kneel.”
thud-!
The powerful voice of the Absolute spread faintly.
There are at most a dozen people who can move normally. There were close to a hundred people, and most of them were half crippled and would not be able to live like human beings.
And the one word I spoke pierced my bones and made my heart ache.
Yang Hyuk-sang, who was shaking all over, unconsciously lowered his head and knelt down. Before I knew it, my whole body was full of cold sweat. I calmly accepted my instinct’s warning not to disobey the author.
As everyone knelt down and threw away their weapons, Dan Woo-hyeon took a breath and said.
“Arrest him.”
It was a funny situation where the police now prioritized Danwoo Hyeon’s words over the Hyeonryeong’s words.
They quickly went to arrest those who had fallen.
Meanwhile, Dan Woo-hyeon passed by those kneeling and went inside. Not only Yang Hyuk-sang, but no one could block his path.
“It would be nice to have something that could make some money.”
Dan Woo-hyeon began to search through the manor, looking for things that could make money.
