Chapter 289 – 289. Things That Are Cruel but Have Become Everyday Life 3
When I saw Managing Director Cho’s expression as he looked at Minhee, I felt somewhat happy.
The primal fears and fears that people can have. A face that perfectly expresses that without any filtering.
I think that if I were to paint this face as is, it would become modern art.
The title is fear.
Bang!
The hammer swung by Minhee hit Managing Director Cho in the foot once again.
Minhee is now slowly tapping the bones of her entire body, starting with her toes.
Not enough to break, but enough to crack? Minhee only beats that much.
Should I say it’s not enough to make me faint, but just enough to make me feel terrible pain?
Minhee’s behavior may seem a bit cruel to young Yejun, so she tried to send him down, but she refused and stayed.
A guy who says there is no age in death and that we need to get used to these things in order to live in the future.
That guy seemed amazing, but I felt even more sorry for him.
I like going to PC rooms while eating burgers with my friends… How did it end up like that?
Still, I liked that attitude. There is no age in death… Okay. That’s a good thing.
Bang!
Minhee’s hammer reached up to her knees.
Even if Director Cho saves that bastard, he will still be crippled for the rest of his life.
Ah… Is it really possible that Hilo will fix all of this?
When I think about it, that’s right.
If body repair is about returning damaged body parts, at least all minor injuries and wounds can be treated with the Heal skill, right?
I’ve never been hurt before… This world is a world of death and killing, not a world of hurt.
“Mr. Seongcheol.”
“Huh?”
“Can you take the tape off this guy’s legs, open them, and then tie them back up?”
“Spread your legs? No way…”
“Yes. I have some business to run in the meantime.”
“Uh… It’s not possible… But… Ah, just thinking about it makes my body lose strength.”
Yonghoon and Yejun, who understood what Minhee and I were saying, must also be thinking the same thing since they are men.
Director Cho deserves to be treated like that, but he is making a very funny expression, perhaps due to the natural defensive instinct that men have.
But since Minhee requested it, I can’t give in.
After putting Managing Director Cho to sleep, he ripped off the tape on his leg with a machete.
After that… He looked around, picked up any suitable stick, spread Executive Director Cho’s legs, and wrapped the stick and feet with tape.
Director Cho was pinned with his legs spread.
Minhee looking with satisfaction at the work I did.
And all the men looking at it with pounding hearts.
Minhee’s arm holding the hammer was raised above her head.
!!!!
None of the three men in the room, including me, saw Minhee’s last action.
Just by imagining it… Terrible action. This is a place where you can hear a loud noise even if you accidentally get hit by a soccer ball.
But there… With a hammer… Wow.
“Ooooo!!!”
Director Cho’s scream echoes throughout the room.
A sound that implies many things.
Pure pain and loss of masculinity. A terrible feeling that seems to echo with the misery mixed together.
The screams were so cruel that for a moment, I forgot what Director Cho had done to Minhee and the women.
That stimulates the natural fear of humans… An act filled with pure malice.
Once again, Minhee’s arms rose above her head, and everyone turned their heads.
“Kuhuhuh… Ugh…”
The second scream was more desperate than the first.
The level of pain and fear is different between being hit without knowing and being hit again after being hit once.
And Minhee’s actions did not end with just two.
Minhee struck down almost ten times.
Moreover, at the end, he took out his folding knife and slashed Director Cho’s entire body.
The smell of blood permeates the room and the pitifulness of despair.
Around the fifth time, the others went down because they thought it would be difficult to see, so it was only Minhee and I who remained in the room on the top floor.
In a place filled with the smell of her blood, Minhee cleaned up her knife and gave it to me.
“Whew. Will the hurt in my heart go away if I do this?”
“That can’t be possible. I’m sorry. I came late. Furthermore, I should have come a little earlier instead of being late.”
“No. Where did you come from? It was my fault for being careless.”
“But… What are these guys? It’s funny to ask after killing them all, but… Are these guys also Company?”
“No. These guys are Director Cho’s personal troops. If you think about it… Should they be called private troops?”
“Is it true that this bastard also tried to embarrass all the company’s higher-ups?”
“I think so. But… This bastard?”
“That bastard Jeong Jong-chan also planned the same thing.”
“Ha, that’s what everyone is thinking.”
“Normally, when you’re tired and full, you tend to start thinking about other things. But… How did you end up like this?”
“Well… Is there anything I can say? I was just weak. This guy was just a little more sneaky.”
“Did you attack me on purpose?”
“At first, I tried to co-opt her. He told me some bullshit, telling her to be his woman, so I got bitten.”
“He was just a third-rate villain.”
“That’s right. And I was brutally beaten by a third-rate villain.”
“Don’t say that. Come here.”
Minhee calmly hugged me.
No matter how strong she is, what she suffered was not that light.
There is no one who would be resolute after something like that happens.
The same goes for Minhee. But this woman did not cry or feel miserable.
“I need to get stronger quickly.”
Just the sight of her feeling her own inadequacy and gritting her teeth.
This must be what’s great about her. This is also something I value highly.
“Whew. I feel better now that I’m doing this. But I need to clean that up quickly. The smell of blood is so disgusting.”
Minhee, slightly away from me, approached Managing Director Cho.
She took out her folding knife again and gently placed the tip of her knife near her heart.
The blade magically penetrates into her body, as if stabbing something like tofu.
And with a pop, Director Cho became a light.
“He’s a piece of trash. But he gives me a lot of coins.”
After Director Cho died, the air in the room became okay again, and she put her knife back into the cabinet and approached me.
“My heart… I want to be hugged by you, but my body isn’t in a good state yet. I don’t think it will be fun at all.”
“Don’t overdo it. You can come and do that at any time.”
“Ha. That’s right. I’m just thankful that I didn’t die. This incident has changed my mind a lot. I’m too weak to go to Bundang like this.”
“I told you. It’s weak.”
“That’s right. You only understand after something happens. So, I’m going to stay still until I’m somewhat prepared.”
“Okay, that’s a good idea. How much coin did you just get? How much do you have?”
“Managing Director Cho just gave me a lot… So now I have a little over 1 million.”
“You don’t have to worry about coins for the time being. It’s not like buying food.”
“That’s right.”
“Then… It would be a waste to buy a potion with that, so I’ll buy you a potion. Eat it diligently.”
Meanwhile, I bought a lot of potions and put them on the desk in my office.
Minhee’s eyes widen when the number exceeds 100, and when I buy 300 and put them up, she looks at me with an expression of boredom.
“It’s always too much.”
“Even if you do 300 things, you can only get 600,000 points. Besides, you only have to do this much to get one skill.”
“Ha. That’s right. That’s true, but… Anyway, the unit we live in is very different.”
“Did you take a lot of pictures?”
“Advanced 72 percent.”
“I’ll upload it soon. Still, I’ve done a lot, right?”
“I ate some potion while thinking about you even though I didn’t want to eat it.”
Meanwhile, Minhee clings closely to me.
Ah… He said he wouldn’t do it today. Why are you tempting me again?
“Good job. Anyway… I’ll be busy for a while. I’ll raise my own skill level. Furthermore, I’ll organize the castle…”
“Hmm? Are you going right away? Why are you talking like you’re organizing?”
“If I stay too long, your authority will be affected. It’s better if I’m gone now.”
“Do you even care about that? You’re a delicate man.”
“Is it Yejun? Take good care of him.”
“It’s surprising that you even care about men. You always talk about men as if they are going to step on them and kill them.”
“That’s right. That feeling is still the same?”
“Then why does he care so much?”
“He’s not a man yet.”
“Oh my? Even if I look like that, I’ll do whatever I have to do, right?”
“Of course, if it were a boy that age… It would be enormous. He would just jump out of his chest, right?”
“If you say something like that, it only sounds like you’re teasing. It’s even more amazing.”
At the same time, the position of the hand that embraces me is subtle.
This woman… What on earth is she supposed to do? She says let’s do it or not.
“Anyway, maybe it’s because I saw a good side of him… Is it because the man’s characteristic dislike hasn’t come out yet? At least he was okay. And what is he, Yonghoon? I liked the way he looked honest, too.”
“It’s not easy to keep one’s convictions in such a situation. I think that’s a good thing, too.”
“Anyway, that’s all that’s left of Manager So’s team, right?”
“Yes.”
“Then there are five, including you.”
“That’s right.”
“For five people to protect this large place… It won’t be easy.”
“We have to do something. Don’t worry too much.”
“You don’t look like you’re worried? I came here thinking about rolling around with you, and it ended up like this.”
“I’m sorry… And thank you.”
Minhee hugs me tightly.
I also said while hugging her tightly.
“I told you. Get my permission and die. I won’t give you permission, so… Don’t die.”
“Okay. I’ll keep that in mind.”
“Okay… I’ll go then. Furthermore, I lost my temper so much that I’m exhausted.”
“Yes. I had a hard time.”
“I’ll stop by often… I’m doing well.”
“Okay.”
I felt like if I stayed any longer, I would continue to get nagging comments or angry comments, so I just quickly left the place.
I’m a little worried about Minhee being left alone, but I can’t be by her side all the time, so there’s nothing I can do.
So I floated up into the sky and looked at the castle.
It looks like a place where containers are surrounded like a castle wall, but there are few people guarding it, so it looks like Muju Gongsan.
Actually, there are no people worth targeting anymore.
Namyangju is not a place with a large floating population, and those who know the internal affairs of this place are all gone now.
I don’t think there’s anyone specifically targeting them. There won’t be. Maybe.
Still, I can’t help but feel worried. Because people like me can be anywhere.
Ha. Really… How did I end up collecting my worries like this?
It would have been easier if I had just killed everyone like before.
Or in the case of Castle, I wouldn’t have to worry about Castle and just avenge Minhee and live with it.
I don’t know. Why am I doing this?
Logistics warehouse… No, the place that has now become a training center is the same, and the fence is the same.
Ha. Should we just put all three in one place?
Hmm… What happens then? Is it going to be a mess?
Still, there are some things to look forward to.
Manager Jeong, Seung-gyu, and Min-hee come together and run something… If you think about it, I guess it’s not that bad.
I don’t know. Well, there is no need to close the possibility at all. Because I don’t know what will happen in the world.
Let’s go back for now. I get so angry that I lose strength.
No… Maybe it’s because I saw Minhee slamming Managing Director Jo’s dick.
I feel like my legs are weak.
I need to go and get some rest. Skills are also proficient… Anyway, I have to do my job.
