Chapter 244 – 244. Business Closure 5
How does it feel? How does it feel to have complex emotions unified into one longing?
It’s a feeling I never want to feel.
Of course, the moment other skills are activated, it’s like shaking hands with death, but charm is a little more vicious.
The act of handing over all of one’s judgment and decision-making authority to others. It is worse than simple death.
“Sehee. Tell Jeong Jong-chan to follow everything I say.”
“Follow what Seonghyun says.”
Mate!
“It’s not Seonghyun. She’s an asshole. A bitch. It’s Seongcheol. Seongcheol Kwon.”
She is a woman who feels deathly sorry for not being able to remember her name properly, rather than feeling resentful even when she gets slapped on the ear.
Life changes so much because of these idiots. It’s such a shitty thing to do.
“Follow what Seongcheol says.”
I looked at Jeong Jong-chan. The expression appears to have no emotion, but there is a mixture of servility in it.
A feeling of intimidation due to each other’s absolute position.
I am A, Jeong Se-hee is E, and Jeong Jong-chan is B. It’s a disease. It’s perfect. You idiot.
Jeong Jong-chan roughly ripped off the tape on his mouth and asked.
“Where have the other chemistry department guys gone? Did you kill them all?”
“Yes.”
“Great. I knew it would be like that. When did you kill him? When you sold Jeong Se-hee to the Seongchae bastard?”
“No. When I first came out of the spell.”
“Yes… It’s amazing, really. By the way…”
Although this is what happened, there is nothing I am curious about or want to know about this bastard Jeong Jong-chan.
I just wanted revenge, but I have no intention of knowing every single detail about how this guy has been living all this time.
“Did you bring the four people standing outside to kill everyone here?”
“Yes.”
“Is there more?”
“Yes?”
“Are there any more of your friends?”
“No, there is none.”
“That’s pathetic. By the way… Did you learn the fourth skill?”
“Yes.”
“As expected. What did you learn?”
“Detecting nearby humans.”
“Yeah. I thought so. Wait. So, did you learn the fifth skill?”
Earlier, this bastard clearly used detection while standing at the precarious distance within a 100-meter radius.
That means detection is a master. Then it’s clear that you’ve obtained the fifth skill, right?
“I haven’t learned it yet.”
“Why?”
“I don’t have enough coins.”
“Ah… I see. I see… So the reason you wanted to kill all these guys was to get coins?”
“Yes.”
He’s a guy with a perfect mindset. A guy who can betray something for the sake of what he needs.
This bastard would have robbed Castle too if she had to.
I was worried about a moment. Shall we use this bastard to learn a random skill and then check the effect?
However… I think it would be quite annoying to actually do it. And it would be too wasteful to spend coins on this bastard.
More than anything… I don’t want to keep seeing each other.
I just want to kill him quickly.
He covered Jeong Jong-chan’s mouth with tape again and spoke to Se-hee.
“Jeong Se-hee.”
“Yes.”
“This guy, this guy, this guy, this guy. Charm the four of them.”
As he spoke, picking out three managers and a representative, Sehee began to charm them.
Then Jeong Jong-chan lost his charm.
As soon as he was released, he screamed with his stuffed mouth and I roughly slashed his thigh with the machete.
“Eup!!!!”
“Now, you are going to die. I won’t do it as poorly as you did. I will watch you die until the end. Blame me until the moment you die. That’s the only thing you can do.”
“Eupeup!!!”
“Yes. It’s so cruel to tell people to keep their mouths shut when they’re dying, isn’t it?”
I also hit the other thigh with all my strength, and I feel the unpleasant sensation of my bone being cut by the tip of the machete.
“Eup!!!!”
“Phew. If you do this, you’ll die from excessive bleeding. If you want to die quickly, yell more. Then I’ll stab you in the stomach too.”
After saying that, I looked away.
You piece of trash. I would have to kill him more horribly.
I resent myself for lacking imagination.
Leaving Jeong Jong-chan groaning and dying, he opened the joint and woke up the four people who were fascinated.
Then I looked at the managing director and the male employee. We don’t need these guys anymore, right?
It doesn’t seem like there’s any information, and there’s no point in saving it.
The machete was swung, and the lives of the two men faded away in vain.
[32,821 coins obtained.]
[5,429 coins obtained.]
Look at the coin. Ugh. What kind of slave is that young dead guy? What is this coin?
I spoke to Sehee and told her to listen to my orders, and I opened the tapes of the managers and said.
“Write about your hideout or the place where you plan to meet with your teammates. Also, the names of your teammates and any skills you know.”
Jeong Jong-chan, the bastard, killed a manager, but I’m glad he was the manager who went to Castle.
If the Company team members had remained in an unknown place, there would have been no way to find and kill them.
Also… I like fascination. It’s so damn terrible. If there had been fascination at outlets, there wouldn’t have been any need for that nonsense.
While the managers were diligently writing down information about their team members, they asked the CEO.
“Are you the storage master?”
“Yes.”
“How much can you put in there?”
“I’ve never even put it all the way in.”
“Oh, fuck. Don’t you know anything? Don’t you guys test for that?”
The representative said nothing. Anyway, this guy is the representative. Ugh.
“Is there food in your storage?”
“Yes.”
“Okay… Then wait a moment. Managers over there? Have you written everything?”
“Yes.”
“I wrote it all down.”
“Yes.”
I took the paper and looked at it.
Umm… I need to go around Seoul. And that too between today and tomorrow.
It will be a night of massacre.
“Representative. Approximately how many coins do you have?”
“I have about 170,000.”
“What about you, Manager?”
“I only have 22.”
“I only have 130,000.”
“I only have 21.”
“You guys have all the coins to yourself? You have a lot of them. Who was the guy here with Blink?”
“I am.”
I looked at the personnel record card. Park Chan-sik. Okay… It also has storage.
“Blink is short-distance teleportation, right?”
“Yes.”
“Distance?”
“The line of sight is 100 meters.”
“Are you a master?”
“No, it’s advanced.”
“It’s advanced, but it’s 100 meters? Then what about the first time?”
“At first it was 20 meters.”
“20 meters? Then it became 20, 30, 100?”
“Yes.”
“That’s right. Then, if you master it, it’s 200 meters.”
It’s not a short distance, is it? No. Is it short distance? But it’s pretty good. Does that mean you can get that far in an instant once it’s in your line of sight?
“Can it be used continuously?”
“Yes. If you can do it yourself.”
“Yeah… I see. Using that won’t unlock the skill, right?”
“Huh? I’m not sure what you’re talking about.”
“If I use something like invisibility and Blink, will the invisibility be resolved?”
“Oh. No. Not really.”
Well then that’s great. Depending on the person using it, it can be a hit-and-run.
This is a very difficult skill when faced with an enemy. To be honest… Uh? It means that you can be suppressed while doing it.
Detection or anything has no meaning. It feels like detection is becoming less and less omnipotent.
“What about the penalty?”
“If you lack spatial awareness, it is difficult to activate the skill itself.”
“What are you talking about?”
“You have to project yourself exactly where you want to be, and that’s not that easy.”
“Aha. Ultimately, it’s a matter of imagination and perception.”
“Yes.”
“Rather than a skill penalty… It’s a people problem, right? Is there anything else?”
“There should be no obstacles in the middle.”
“That would be natural.”
“There is nothing else.”
“I understand. It’s a good skill. That’s it… Who was the one with the transformation?”
“Yes, it is me.”
Go Jae-young. A man transformed into a polar bear and wandering around.
“Do you have a fourth skill too?”
“Yes, there is.”
“What? Besides stun, reflection, and transformation?”
“It’s storage.”
“Ah… Are you also a storage person? Well… If you’re a team leader, you probably feel the need for storage. Tsk. Nothing new. So… Are you carrying a lot of food too?”
“Yes.”
“Okay. Then let’s ask about transformation. What I’m most curious about is: Can I transform into a woman?”
This was the part I was most curious about regarding the transformation ability.
If you transform into a woman, you can apply charm to both sides.
A story about no need to drag Sehee around like this.
“Not as a woman.”
“Fuck. Really?”
“Yes. No matter what you transform into, your gender is fixed.”
“That’s trash. That’s enough. Ah. Now that I think about it, I can’t use my skills when I transform? Then, even if I was able to transform into a woman, it’s meaningless. It’s not like I’m going to spread my legs to men.”
The manager looks blankly at me muttering to myself.
“Then why are you learning that? Can you at least communicate with animals?”
“Yes.”
“Huh? Yes? Can you talk to animals?”
“Yes.”
“Crazy… That’s a bit surprising. So? Can you order me to do something?”
“No. Animals are not as smart as we think. They can only do simple probing.”
“Ah… I see. Well, there was a separate taming skill… So if I wanted to do something, I had to learn it.”
Anyway, transformation skills have no meaning. There is nothing more I want to know.
“Lee Hyun-seok. Do you have the fourth skill too?”
“Yes.”
Oh. After all, they are popular guys.
“What is it?”
“It’s a party.”
“Party? Oh. Really? I was really curious about that though. What’s the effect of that?”
“If you have a party skill, you can invite others to a party.”
“So? What’s the good thing about being in the same party?”
“If you are in the same party, you can check each other’s locations.”
“Really? Regardless of distance?”
“Yes.”
“Will all party members find out?”
“Yes.”
“Wait a minute… It’s not just you who used the skill, but all party members can know each other’s locations?”
“Yes.”
“Then did you use the party skill?”
“Yes.”
“Now? I erased everything, and it must have disappeared.”
“Yes. The party has been canceled.”
“Hmm… I guess I’ll have to start by pestering your teammate. It’s annoying. What are your other abilities?”
“We do not take damage from each other’s attack skills.”
“Oh. Really? That’s good. So, you mean you won’t take damage even if you use something like Ice Whirlwind with a party member present?”
“I don’t know because I haven’t used the Ice Whirlwind. However, things like traps don’t activate even if you step on them.”
“That’s good. I’ll have to test it out. So we can’t damage each other at all? Doesn’t single target skill work?”
“Yes.”
This is kind of okay. You’re forcing peace, right?
“What about leaving the party? Can the other party leave the party at will?”
“Yes.”
Ah… Then it makes no sense. It means that you will be attacked immediately after you leave.
Instead, I think it could be a useful skill for me. Wait for a sec…
“How many people will there be?”
“One person at the beginning, and increases by one each time the skill level increases.”
“What is your current skill level?”
“It is intermediate level.”
“Then two more people?”
“Yes.”
Nice. If you master it, you can have up to four people, which means you can have Seunghee, Mina, Se-Ah, and Anna in your party.
It’s a party… It’s pretty good. It would be nice to take a picture later when I have some free time.
“Doesn’t that make it possible for party members to communicate with each other?”
“Yes, none.”
“Ah. Yes. Um… That’s a shame.”
You never know. Such features may be added as you become advanced or master.
First off, I knew it was good. This is a big harvest in its own way.
This is the only way to know your abilities without taking pictures yourself.
The company guys are really helpful as expected.
“Eup… Eup…”
Jeong Jong-chan, who is almost dying, mutters softly.
Young. Aren’t you dead yet?
“Why? It hurts? Ah… There was a lot of blood, right? I think I’m about to die from excessive bleeding.”
Jeong Jong-chan rolls his eyes dully, as if he is very drunk.
The eyes looking at me become empty. It looks like consciousness is gradually fading away.
One of those long-awaited moments when the world is ruined is slowly approaching.
The remnants of the guy who tormented me along with Jeong Se-hee.
The spark of life in that guy is fading out in front of me as if he is not in his right mind.
“Tsk. You idiot. I’ll give you a clean finish with the generosity of the winner.”
She took the machete and swung it wide, cutting off Jeong Jong-chan’s neck.
A guy who becomes light. Last moment… I think the corner of his mouth went up slightly as he saw the machete flying.
Was he happy to be free from pain? What an idiot.
[428,401 coins obtained.]
What do you want? What? I heard there are no coins? Ah… Increased stamina. This guy wanted to take a passive picture.
Yes, the fifth skill has a passive. Young. Know the good things.
Jeong Jong-chan is also dead, and I think I’ve figured out everything I need to know now.
Well then, I guess I should start organizing things now, right?
