Chapter 19 – The Second Desire Quest (3)
Before entering the building.
Seo Joo-hwan actively used the system’s functions.
[From now on, 10 LPs per minute will be used.]
[Blessing of Concentration (Passive) is applied.]
Concentration and thinking ability are heightened by the application of the blessing. It felt like my senses were expanding.
He did not end there, but strengthened his boxing talent that he acquired from Sora Jeong.
[Use 100LP to raise the rank of Baktu (F) talent.]
[Use 200LP to raise the rank of Baktu (F+) talent.]
[Use 300LP to raise the rank of Baktu (E) talent.]
[Use 400LP to raise the rank of Baktu (E+) talent.]
[Use 500LP to raise the rank of Baktu (D) talent.]
[Use 1,000 LP to raise the rank of Baktu (D+) talent.]
[Use 2,000LP to raise the rank of Baktu (C) talent.]
A feast of emerging messages.
A total of 4,500 LP was used to make Baktu’s talent C+. There are differences for each talent, but on average, a C+ grade can be said to be the skill of an expert.
In fact, I wanted to strengthen it to grade A+, but unfortunately, the level of the system was low, so C+ was the limit.
‘Great. Let’s go in.’
Seo Joo-hwan turned his smartphone to silent. It would have been a disaster if the culprit, by any chance, had discovered the location first.
As I entered the entrance, I saw wooden logs and metal pipes scattered around.
‘It would be more reliable than not having it.’
No matter how skilled you are in martial arts, if you get hit with a sword, you will die. He grabbed an iron pipe and lifted it.
That buck… That buck….
The abandoned building in the middle of the night when it rains is dreary. When the brisk wind passed over the sound of dripping raindrops, a chill chilled my spine.
‘Isn’t it on the first floor?’
There was no sign of popularity that I could feel despite my heightened senses. It occurred to me that the culprit might not have arrived yet.
‘Should I go up?’
The place where the incident occurred in the previous life was on the first floor. But in this life, it might have gone to the second floor. He killed the presence and found the stairs.
‘I must have gone up a lot to get to the second floor.’
No matter how strong the culprit was, he would not have been able to drag a single person up high. There wasn’t even an elevator, so at most it would be up to the second floor.
Seo Joo-hwan silenced his footsteps and took one step at a time with his back to the wall. In preparation for an unexpected surprise attack, I opened my ears wide and concentrated.
When I went up about halfway up the stairs, I heard a faint unfamiliar sound.
– Ugh… Town… Ugh…!
A suffocating sound as if the mouth was forcibly covered.
It was a female voice mixed with crying.
‘Found!’
Seo Joo-hwan hurriedly ran up the stairs. I could hear footsteps, but I couldn’t help it. I thought that if it was too late, something irreversible might happen.
When I got to the second floor and looked in the direction from which the sound came, I saw a stout man holding a pantsuit and looking in his direction. And a woman was lying in front of the man.
A situation where you can easily guess what was going on.
For a moment, Seo Joo-hwan saw Han Soo-ah superimposed on the woman’s face. Then an uncontrollable rage rose up.
“Hey! You bastard!”
Tadadak!
Seo Joo-hwan screams like a scream and rushes at the man regardless.
A man who is embarrassed to see him like that.
The man was flustered, but he hurriedly swung the object in his hand.
Caang!
The sound of metal clashing!
What the man was holding was a sharpened saw.
He could have died if he hadn’t lifted the iron pipe momentarily to stop it.
Seo Joo-hwan, whose eyes were half turned upside down, shouted with fever more than fear.
“You crazy bastard! Wielding a saw at a person?!”
“You, what are you! Huh? You bastard, isn’t that the pig you saw at the convenience store earlier?”
The look of bewilderment gradually disappeared from the face of the man who recognized Seo Ju-hwan. He was relieved to see his dull-looking body.
Although Seo Joo-hwan lost weight through his recent exercise, he is still overweight. He was a body that could only be belittled.
The man, on the other hand, was tall and quite bulky. Soon, the man who even had a smile giggled and smirked.
“Young. Why are you here? I tried to save him because he seems to be good at grasping the subject.”
“What?”
“Hey, sorry. I must die because I saw it. Men have no hobbies, so I’ll kill them in peace.”
Is it because he has already committed murder several times? The man laughed at the word killing.
There is no crazy guy
Well, I wouldn’t have been sane and dismembered.
“Fuck it. You bastard killer.”
Seo Joo-hwan chewed and spit it out regardless of the vicious criminal in front of him. He was thinking of his life before his return to him.
“You fucking murderer… You killed Sua. You love Sua like that….”
At the end of the sentence, a strong anger oozes out.
Naturally, the man did not understand Seo Ju-hwan’s words his.
“What is he saying now? Oh, did you know any of the bitches I killed? Or is this bitch’s name Sua?”
A man looking back and talking. He suddenly licked his lips in regret.
“Oh, I’m suddenly hot. I was just about to do something, but you interrupted me!”
The man who had been laughing aloud suddenly screamed. His mood swings were not normal. The man, whose face was about to explode with such anger, suddenly charged at me brandishing a saw.
Seo Joo-hwan blocked the man’s attack by swinging an iron pipe at him.
Caang!
“Ugh. Blocked? Block it?!”
Caang, kang, kang, kang!
“Why, what are you going to do! Will you fight me with that?”
Kkang kkang kkang!
“I! You bastard! Go kendo! It’s a triple!”
Kkang kkang kkang kkang kkang kkang kkang!
“Die, die, die! Porridge… !”
A foot rising from below kicks the man’s stomach.
Pooh!
With a dull sound, the man staggered back. The man looked at Seo Joo-hwan with surprised eyes, as if it was hard to believe that he had been hit. Soon, the man’s face was distorted.
“You you! Did you hit me you? This piglet!”
The man screamed as if in a fit and ran.
Seo Joo-hwan moved sideways and avoided his saw blade. The adept’s boxing talent instinctively told him what move to take.
He twisted his wrist and inserted the iron pipe into it.
Knock!
“Turn it off….”
A gasping sound came out of the man’s mouth. The man who hesitated and stepped back met Seo Ju-hwan’s eyes. The man choked and choked as he swung the saw in all directions.
On the other hand, Seo Ju-hwan approached the man with a cold face.
The man’s movements were clearly visible. Instinctively, I could see that it was nonsense to talk about the 3rd degree in kendo and all that. It was a clumsy move that had never been properly fought, let alone kendo.
Was he afraid of Seo Joo-hwan, who approached him without hesitation despite wielding a weapon? The man shouted with a blue face.
“You, what are you doing! Why do you suddenly appear and disturb me!”
It’s a pathetic talker.
Seo Joo-hwan waved an iron pipe at him and shouted.
“I am a sergeant in the Republic of Korea Army! You motherfucker!”
Kaaang!
Sharp iron!
An iron pipe raised from below struck the saw.
The saw slipped out of his grasp.
Bahah!
The iron pipe he swung then hit him on the shoulder.
The man screamed and grabbed his shoulder his.
Fuck!
The swinging fist hit the right side of the guy’s face.
The man’s face contorted and he turned violently. When I hit the other side of him again, the man who couldn’t stand it any longer collapsed.
“Turn it off….”
“You’re not even a beast.”
Puck!
“Keheo-eok….”
Seo Joo-hwan kicked the fallen man’s abdomen with his foot once more. Even then, his anger his did not cool down to the tip of his head his, so he raised his fist again.
[Master, no! We have to stop!]
Fuck! Puck!
[Master!]
“… Shit.”
He would n’t have stopped if it had n’t been for the shouts in his head. He must have hit his fist again and again.
Seo Joo-hwan lowered his fist with his distorted face.
[Well stopped. If you do more, the owner’s position may be difficult.]
‘… Okay. Thanks, Lucy.’
In his mind, he wanted to beat him until he died, but in reality, Lucy was right. This country has granted human rights to criminals who are less than trash.
Seo Joo-hwan left the fainting man behind and approached the woman who was lying on the floor. Her woman had her hands and feet bound and blue tape over her mouth.
“It’s okay? It’s over, don’t worry.”
Seo Joo-hwan spoke in the most caring voice to reassure the woman. She saw Han Soo-ah superimposed on her face, and the emotions of the past surged up.
How frightening it must have been to be so full of tear marks. I felt sorry for the red eyes.
‘Sua must have been more hurt and scared.’
He bit his lip hard to suppress the rising emotion. Han Soo-ah in this life is safe. She didn’t appear to be seriously hurt either. Everything worked out fine
He freed the woman’s hands and feet from her and removed the blue tape from her.
“Oh, thank you. Whoops, black. Whoa, whoa, whoa!”
The woman let go of her neck her and cried and took her into Seo Ju-hwan’s arms her.
Seo Joo-hwan gently patted her back in her arms her.
Beep~ Beep~ Beep~.
It was a brutal night with the late siren of a police car.
*
The police’s dispatch was delayed, but the case was safely concluded thanks to Seo Ju-hwan’s performance of her.
[20,000LP will be given as a reward for the desire quest, 『Save Han Soo-ah!』
[20,000LP will be paid by satisfying the additional hidden achievement condition of the Desire Quest, Overcoming Trauma.]
[10,000 LP will be paid as a reward for completing the achievement, 『Brave Citizen』.]
The culprit was arrested by the police who arrived late, and a message emerged indicating the completion of the quest. As a reward for completing additional hidden quests and achievements, Seo Joo-hwan obtained a whopping 50,000 LP. Perhaps because it was a reward achieved while going through dangerous things, the LP supply and demand has more than doubled from the previous day.
“Thank you very much. Here’s my number. Please contact me if you are discharged. I want to buy you a meal.”
“Oh, that’s fine. I did the right thing…”
“It’s because I’m so grateful.”
“If you say so… Okay. Please go in carefully.”
“Thank you so much!”
Again and again the woman thanked him and left.
‘The culprit was caught, the trauma was overcome, and Sua and the woman are all safe. Feel so good.’
It’s really fortunate.
It was not enough to call it a happy ending.
– Joo Hwan-ah, I’m sorry… Could you please return to the unit?
If it wasn’t for this phone call.
“My vacation….”
It was the moment when the last year’s vacation disappeared.
