Chapter 640 – Side Story 143) the Chaser (42)
143) The Chaser (42)
“Tsk.”
I clicked my tongue as I watched the fog breaking through the asphalt road. He had to kill both of them to keep things clean, but one of them escaped.
A desperate cry for revenge.
Its appearance was like that of many ghosts.
“… No, but fuck, is this my fault? Didn’t they attack first? I was in self-defence. I’m such a jerk.”
After all, I did beat the first bread, but these guys were the ones with the intention of killing me in the first place. Those guys are self-defense no matter how many times they strike first.
“Oh, that’s annoying.”
First, I searched the decapitated bodies to see who was trying to kill me. However, there was only a small amount of cash in his pocket, and there were no clues to his identity.
“Thumb. It’s really annoying!”
I got nervous and kicked the corpse’s head.
“Huh? What is this?”
The skin of the corpse’s head was torn from the kick. But something was a little strange. There was intact skin inside the torn skin.
“This is… Very familiar.”
He tore off the leather on his face, revealing the face of a young man.
“Isn’t that a real bast noodle? Why are bast noodles coming out here?”
Bast face.
It was a kind of mask made of thin skin, and it was a makeup tool that did not feel the slightest sense of incongruity because it looked like a real person’s face. Usually used by people who need to hide their identities like spies, the Sanctuary company was secretly distributing bast face masks.
“It’s not like Sanctuary has made it this far… Then it’s said that it was developed here on its own…”
No matter how much Sanctuary Saga was the best conglomerate in Dark City, it was not at the level of advancing into Red Town this far away.
Distribution is important to advance into Red Town, but it was impossible to expand the market outside the Dark City because of the monsters that account for 90% of the world.
So it was good to see that it was developed by Redtown independently of Sanctuary.
“Anyway, people live everywhere the same.”
Shrugging my shoulders, I took out my phone and took a picture of the dead man’s face. I was thinking of identifying this man if I found some sort of intelligence organization later.
“No, wait a minute. Then, wasn’t that bastard also wearing a bast face? Oh, then that would be even more annoying?”
Reminding me of an assassin who escaped using fog-type psychic powers, I made an impression.
If he was also wearing a bast mask, he would not be able to pursue him unless he could identify the dead man.
“Thumb. I suddenly got a lump.”
I let out a sigh and left the body and came down from the building. And I walked to the window where the children were left.
Now that things have happened, I can’t leave my children here.
Doesn’t it come out often when you watch movies?
Regardless of age or gender, if you are related to the main character, once kidnapped and watched. It was only natural that he would go through terrible torture to get information about the main character.
He has a deep grudge against me, so he will definitely not leave the children who were with me.
It was impossible for the children who couldn’t even eat properly to escape from the clutches of high-level psychics. It was good to leave it in a safe place even for the safety of the children.
“Hey~”
“Oh, welcome…”
As I entered the window, waving my hand, the madam, who was wearing an elegant dress even in broad daylight, greeted me tremblingly.
“What about the children?”
“I-I hid it in that room…”
“Good job.”
I praised her at the words of the madam pointing to one side of her room while looking at her eyes. Seeing me fighting was not a good sight for children to see.
“What else do you want me to ask for?”
“Yes?”
“I told you earlier. If you have kids, the lady will do you a favor. Do you have a favor?”
“Will you really do me a favor?”
Madame’s eyes began to shine brightly, as if she had never shivered. It was said that a powerful psychic like me would do the favor, so from Madam’s point of view, it was no different than picking up a treasure on the road.
“That’s right. I’m Armor, a brash guy who doesn’t say a word.”
“Uh… I’m sorry, but can I tell you later? I don’t have anything on my mind right now…”
“Yes, lady, do whatever you want. Then, give her a phone number.”
“Yes? Oh, yes!”
When she handed over her cell phone, Madame smiled happily and stamped her number on her cell phone. She gave her her cell phone back and I went into the room where the children were.
“Hey~ Little ones~”
“…”
The younger siblings hid behind the back of the eldest and shivered. Of course, the child’s physique was so small that no one could be properly covered.
And for some reason the child was glaring at me with her eyes wide open.
“Now…”
“Are you here to sell us?”
“Huh? What are you talking about all of a sudden?”
At the child’s words, I tilted my head. What kind of bullshit is that?
“The reason I bring my child to Changgwan is to sell him to Changgwan!
“… What? Selling a child?”
I was impressed by the child’s words.
“What are you talking about? Talk in detail.”
“…Aren’t you here to sell us?”
“Yeah. Anyway, talk about it. Selling the child to Changgwan?”
“That, that’s…”
The child’s words continued, and my face grew colder. If I hadn’t been wearing a mask, the children would have burst into tears when they saw my face.
‘Tsubeol. It’s the same everywhere that people push the weaker ones out first when life is hard.’
After hearing the child’s words, I sighed inwardly. When life was difficult, the first to be kicked out of the group were the elderly and children. This fucking phenomenon was the same everywhere.
That’s why I couldn’t explode the anger boiling inside me now. If this was a good neighborhood to live in, children wouldn’t have been sold to Changgwan. Oh, but are you going to sell the ones you want to sell and buy the ones you want to buy?
In any case, this damn thing has never been missed in the history of mankind and has happened frequently. This was something that even I, a giant of chaos and a god, could not do anything about.
“Anyway, follow me. I have no intention of selling you guys.”
After calming down the anger boiling inside, I took the children out of the window.
“Um…But where are you going? I want to go home now…”
The kid who was following me hesitantly said.
Honestly, you can just send these kids home. Because these are the first children I met today.
However, if I send the children home like this, the fog-powered bastard will surely go looking for them. It was obvious what would happen.
“From today you will be staying elsewhere.”
“… Huh?! What are you talking about?!”
“Therefore…”
I explained the current situation to the child. That the assassin I missed might be looking for the children.
“…You think we might die?”
“Yeah. Unlucky to be involved with me.”
If there was anything wrong with the children, it was really unlucky for them to be involved with me. There was no other reason.
“So I’m going to hide you in a safe place.”
“…”
The child who was glaring at me with an unfair face soon turned into a resigned face. I realized that expressing anger and resentment to me now will not change the situation.
‘Tsk.’
To think that a young bastard could already make such a face made me feel bitter.
“Stay there until I kill that assassin bastard. After that, I don’t care if you guys go back to your homes or not.”
“… Yes?”
“Why are you so surprised? Then you thought I’d take care of you all my life? Or did you think I’d spare the assassin who tried to kill me? I’m not that kind. Whatever happens, I will definitely kill you.”
Of course there are exceptions.
If it’s my style of woman, even if they try to kill me, I won’t. Ah, in this case, it is killed in a different way (?). Mostly kill in bed.
“It’s a bit messy like a pigpen, but you’ll be safe. The guys there aren’t normal either.”
I took the kids and headed to what I thought was a safe place.
*****
Park Jang-dae, who looked at the children looking up at him with frightened eyes, as if bewildered, turned to me.
“…So you want me to watch the kids now?”
“Uh. Stay with me for a few days. I’ll finish it soon.”
“You know I’m a babysitter!”
“Ooh, ooh…”
As the beat pole screamed, the children hiding behind my brother started crying.
Unlike me, the most handsome man in the universe, Park Jang-dae was so terribly ugly that you would mistake him for an orc with only his buck teeth. It was only natural that the children would be terrified at the sound of such a bastard.
“Why are you screaming and fucking?! Can’t you see they’re scared?!”
“No… I’m going crazy, really!”
Seeing the crying children, the Park Taekwondo scratched his head nervously. A lot of his hair fell out. No way… Hair loss?!
“Shaved-headed, bald-headed men are tight~”
“…Why are you singing all of a sudden?”
“Oh, I just suddenly remembered. Anyway, I’m taking care of the kids until I take care of that bastard. I’ll pay for the kids’ meals.”
“…How much will you give me?”
“I can’t give it to you right now because I don’t have money, I’ll give it to you later. You know the credit, right?”
“I love fucking trauma! Haa… How did I get involved with this bastard…”
“Chuckling giggling! If you twist it, you have a regression superpower!”
Watching Park Jang-dae let out a sigh, I laughed frivolously. After all, it seemed that he would take care of the children.
“Damn it… You more than that!
“Who is Hwang’s boss?”
“This bastard?! The owner of a meat restaurant!”
“A meat restaurant…? Ah~ that man? Come to think of it, you still haven’t paid the credit. If you make money, you’ll have to pay the credit there first. But why do you care about that man’s credit? Well, are you close with the owner there?”
“… There is such a thing. Anyway, pay the money back to President Hwang quickly. Do you understand?”
“Yes. I will. Anyway, take good care of the kids. Oh, that’s right. Hey, do you know who this bastard is?”
Before leaving, I showed Park Jang-dae the picture I had taken earlier. It was the face of an assassin who had his neck broken by my hand.
“Huh? This… Looks like a dokgo kid?”
“Huh? Do you know who this bastard is?”
Park Jang-dae knew it, so I was surprised. To be honest, I didn’t expect much because I didn’t ask.
“I think the Dokgo bastard who was excommunicated is right? Anyway, this bastard, no, these bastards were after you? It wouldn’t have been easy… Ah, really. Even the Dokgo bastards would have a hard time killing you.”
“Oh, what is it? Explain in detail. What is Dokgo doing?”
“Dokgo Ma-hyeok and Dok-go Ma-jun. They are the young snakes of the Dok-go family. I don’t know the details, but after being caught stealing family treasure and excommunicated, I heard that the two act as assassins. He said he was beaten.”
“Yes? I don’t know where you live, do you?”
“Okay.”
“Hmm… That’s right. Thank you. I got some good information.”
After patting Park on the shoulder, I turned around.
Anyway, it’s Dokgo’s family…
‘It’s only intertwined with the seven families.’
The Dokgo family, the family of Dokgo Ma-hyeok and Dokgo Ma-jun, who tried to kill me, was also one of the seven families in Red Town.
