Episode 419
“The smell is disgusting.”
“That’s because I didn’t even clean it up.”
The men who entered the cabin frowned and held their noses. The disgusting smell is spreading like crazy, giving me a headache.
Some people were already nauseated.
However, the gaze towards the child who was trembling with fear did not change.
Their eyes were full of greed.
“But there’s someone I don’t know?” Then suddenly I turned my head and looked at Bicheonwoong.
Contrary to my expectations of a child being alone, seeing this strange-looking man made me feel uneasy, so I tightened my grip on the knife in my hand.
They all seemed to be preparing for a possible situation by keeping their distance.
These Hochon men are all hunters.
Since he made a living by catching bears and other dangerous animals, he knew some of the basics of combat.
Don’t let your guard down.
That was the way he looked at Bicheonwoong.
The child trembled in fear and hid behind Bicheonwoong’s back.
But soon he clenched his fists.
I don’t want anyone else to die because of me. It’s not something a ten-year-old child would think of, but this child, who had already lost his parents and whose face had turned hideous, seemed to have given up on his life.
I took a step forward.
I already know there is no escape.
That’s why I have no choice but to step forward.
“Wh…what brought you here?”
“Four years! “Is there something you’re hiding from us
?”
“There’s nothing!”
He shook his head and vehemently denied it. There is nothing to hide.
If there is one, would it be at the level of Bicheonwoong? But I didn’t think caring for an injured person was a bad thing. Therefore, Yeo Eun-wol expressed strong denial and hoped that these men would return as quickly as possible.
“Don’t lie, you!” Loud boom!
A man wearing gloves shouted loudly and approached the child.
The reason he doesn’t care even though Bicheonwoong is right in front of him is because he trusts the other men around him.
He came straight up, grabbed the child, and dragged him away.
However, when I resisted strongly, my hand flew off without my knowledge.
match-!
The sound rang out cheerfully.
The small child’s body fell to the floor in vain.
“Don’t you hear me telling you not to lie? “You hid the property your mother and father left behind…”
“You took it all! “There isn’t one!”
Yeo Eun-wol shouted in defiance.
Perhaps because death was just around the corner, there seemed to be nothing to be afraid of. The way he looked at the men was so sharp that no matter where he looked, he didn’t look like a ten-year-old child.
The man ground his teeth.
“You bitch!”
match!
My hand flew off again.
The child’s body fell to the floor and he kicked his foot toward his stomach. puck! With a sound, I fell over like a shrimp and moaned from the overwhelming pain.
It was never something worth doing to a child.
Bicheonwoong clearly engraved that scene in his eyes.
The child lying face down was on the verge of life and death just because he had been hit a moment ago. Blood foam was leaking out of his mouth and his eyes were already rolled back.
However, the violence within the company did not stop.
Bicheonwoong, who was watching quietly, tsk tsk and clicked his tongue.
“stop.”
“what?!”
puck!
The moment the man screamed, his neck rose into the air.
An inexplicable necrosis has occurred. Even those who were watching could not understand what had happened to their colleagues.
I just stared blankly at the blood gushing out of my body the moment my neck fell.
“What… what is it?”
“Now…”
The men still didn’t understand the meaning.
A person died before my eyes. The head was cut and the body fell over and vomited blood.
Still, I don’t know why this situation happened.
Why?
The moment I was about to clear up the question in my head, Bicheonwoong stretched out his hand.
A dagger that the man was wearing at his waist was naturally sucked into his hand.
The moment people saw it, they realized.
“It’s… an aggressive attack…!”
“Go Gosu!”
“Aaaahhh!”
run away
Without hesitation, he began to run away, pushing away his colleagues.
Even if you are a former hunter who doesn’t know much about martial arts, you know that only a very expert person can take an object without even touching it.
Knowing that it was a monster they could not defeat even if numerous hunters in Hochon attacked at once, they desperately ran and fled.
But it was nothing more than an attempt.
Sigh!
“Oops!”
No one can escape.
Salhwang Bicheonwoong drew his sword and held his sword.
Even if other five emperors are here, they will never be able to escape from that blade. It was
a fleeting moment
.
The moment the men say goodbye to life when their bodies are cut and their heads fall off, it
is absurd that these people, who have not even learned martial arts in the first place, run away to avoid Salhwang’s hand. In an instant, more than a dozen men became souls without even being able to leave this hut.
Bicheonwoong shook off the blood on the dagger
.
Eventually, I turned my head and looked at the fallen child.
A child collapsed without even being able to breathe properly. Not only his eyes, but even his entire body was slowly dying.
Since he was a weak child to begin with, he would not have been able to endure the violence within the company.
The expression of Yeo Eun-wol, who was dying, was engraved in my eyes.
Did you even have a intuition of your own death?
I tried to smile brightly no matter what.
Bicheonwoong, who had been keeping the images engraved in his eyes, carefully placed the child next to the bodies of the mother and father and stood up.
I couldn’t save it.
I did not have the magic pill that could restore the child, nor was my body recovered enough to infuse the child with energy to sustain his life.
“I’m not feeling well.”
It’s different from when I saved Dansomi.
He could not help but feel bitter, thinking that his decision was foolish in the face of the lives he could not save. If only I had come a little sooner, or if I hadn’t let the child approach me in the first place.
Would all this have been different?
A moment of hesitation determines everything. Bicheonwoong thought he had made the biggest mistake of his life.
In the end, I was unable to choose a path that would allow me to live as a person rather than a tool.
Bicheonwoong immediately grabbed the dagger.
“At best… I will take revenge.” You have to move to find his sword.
Then revenge will take care of itself.
Bicheonwoong made up his mind and moved slowly.
“This way.”
Dan Woo-hyeon was walking along the back alleys of Hochon with Jang Sam-tae. This strangely quiet place seemed to predict the eve of the storm.
“It’s so quiet….”
“Didn’t everyone go there because there was a fire?” Dan Woo-hyeon looked towards the east.
A thick layer of smoke was still rising. I don’t know if there were still people gathered together or if there was some other reason, but this strangely quiet feeling was eerie.
“Anyway, there are many strange places in the world. “Killing people for money and making a living off of that money… It’s not just one person, it’s the entire village.”
“It’s none of our concern.”
“Of course. But I’ll have to say something to Hong Dae-in later.” Jang Sam-tae did not like it.
To destroy a family and live with that money? They say that humans are a species that is inevitably blind to money, but isn’t this going too far?
The whole village is like that, so it’s to the point of throwing up too.
In my heart, I wanted to kill them all.
“Is it far?”
“No, it’s in front of here.”
Jang Sam-tae went ahead and pointed to a place.
The innermost part of the back alley.
I saw a shabby cabin built in an uninhabitable space. The moment it got quite close, a disgusting smell began to waft out, and Jang Sam-tae, who was in charge of it, started to gag.
“Wow! “What does this smell like?”
“It’s a taste.”
Jang Sam-tae plugged his nose with a dead look on his face. A bad smell means there is a rotting corpse. When I thought about seeing it, my eyes already became dark.
However, Dan Woo-hyeon walked as if nothing had happened.
It’s been quite a while since I’ve been exposed to something this harsh.
What made Danwoohyeon even more excited was the smell of blood that came with the smell.
“What are you doing? Without going
in.”
“Am I really going in?”
“You came here to get in, right?”
“The corpse…” When Dan Woo-hyeon didn’t say anything, Jang Sam-tae suddenly came to his senses. The scariest thing in the world is the silent Danwoohyeon.
I couldn’t bear to complain and opened the door. However, reporter Jang Sam-tae, who had a foul taste, hesitated and could not bear to go inside.
“What are you doing?”
“Now… Lord Jang… the corpse is….”
“I know.”
The smell of blood means there is a corpse.
Dan Woo-hyeon frowned and pushed Jang Sam-tae in with his hand. The moment Jang Sam-tae went inside, he almost tripped over a corpse and fell.
I barely managed to keep my balance and glared at Woohyun sharply.
“No really-!”
“It’s just one person.” Dan Woo-hyeon didn’t pay attention to Jang Sam-tae’s voice. As I checked the corpses scattered around, I was certain that there was someone else here besides the child.
“It’s neat. “It’s a workmanship without unnecessary details.”
“Do you check that too?”
Jang Sam-tae looked at Dan Woo-hyeon with a puzzled expression. I watched the bodies of the dead people closely and checked the cut sections.
Just looking at that sight was enough to give me goosebumps.
Soon, Dan Woo-hyeon turned his gaze and discovered two corpses covered with cloth. Realizing that this was the cause of the bad smell, Jang Sam-tae was horrified and backed away.
However, I checked the child lying next to him.
“That kid over there…”
“I know.”
Dan Woo-hyeon responded indifferently and approached the child. Even though his hideous appearance was engraved in my eyes, I stretched out my hand and checked its veins. It would not be strange for a weakly beating pulse to die immediately.
“Can I buy it?”
“okay.”
There was no hesitation about whether Dan Woo-hyeon should be saved or not.
Like a person who only has the thought of saving life, he naturally breathed in the Heavenly Harmony Ball and held on to that feeble breath.
“You go back to the village immediately.”
“Are you talking about just me?”
“Yes, if you have any sense of unrest, let me know right away.”
“Oh, I understand.” Did you realize that Dan Woo-hyeon’s voice was heavy?
Jang Sam-tae nodded willingly.
Since his appearance was unusual, I thought that something bad might happen.
Finally, the moment Jang Sam-tae went outside.
Dan Woo-hyeon picked up the limp child and looked around once again.
“It’s just one guy…”
His eyes narrowed.
