Chapter 381 – Encounter With Raiders
As it got darker, I dressed up and came out of the house and remembered an important event before meeting them.
“System.”
[Yes, User.]
“What will happen if I hit a human with all my might?”
[If you hit it with the current user’s power, it will probably explode.]
“Not just dying, but an explosion?”
[Yes, the hit part can’t stand the force and explodes all around it.]
“I need to adjust my strength.”
Until a few months ago, I had the strength of an ordinary adult, but now I have the power to explode the moment I hit a person with all my might.
Originally, his body couldn’t adapt to the sudden increase in power and he would break things in the house, but fortunately, the ‘evolved body’ skill had a fraudulent effect.
-LV.3: Almost at the end of evolution, you can control every part of your body as you wish.
It is said that I have transcended humans, but up to this point, I was able to control the power I possessed up to LV2.
It wasn’t that he had become very strong to such a serious level, so of course I broke the doorknob of the house a few times before I got used to it.
‘But fortunately, I quickly adapted.’
However, when the effect was obtained by raising it to LV3, it became possible to control the strength without any adaptation period.
The ridiculous effect of being able to control your body as you wish.
This effect was inherited as it was when he acquired a ‘half-body’, so he did not need to adapt to his power, which was hundreds of times stronger than before.
[A demigod is a species so great that it cannot even be compared to humans.]
“Is it that great?”
[Even if it’s half, it’s because it has the power of a god.]
I’ve never used power before, but I have a rough idea. If you wield your fist with all your might, you can just dismantle a building like an apartment building.
The ‘evolved body’ alone was enormous, but the ‘half body’ gave me strength beyond comparison.
“How much will the system be if I use my full power now?”
[Probably, a small island can be erased with a few punches.]
“That much?!”
[The power of a demigod is that it has that much power.]
This side was still thinking in terms of common sense, but I couldn’t help but be surprised to hear the words of the system that deviated from common sense.
When I, who was just an ordinary human, gained the power of being a demigod, being able to erase an island with just a few punches was a power comparable to nuclear power.
[Hack and users cannot be compared. Nuclear can be shot down, but the user can never stop it with human power.]
When the system said that it was not right to read my thoughts and compare them to my core, I made up my mind once again to control my strength well in the future.
Normally, the limit is set, so it is about a person with a little strength, but if the limit is lifted, the island will fly away.
I didn’t want to see my body explode in front of my eyes just because I touched someone wrong.
“By the way, the gangsters are quite far away?”
Thinking not to lift the restrictions, even as a joke, I asked while looking at the location marked by the system.
It was a distance that I had to drive at least 30 minutes from the house where I currently live.
[That’s the default application to protect you.]
“What do you mean?”
[When someone with hostility chases you, the area around the house is obstructed and you cannot chase it.]
“Did you have that ability?”
[I’ve never been involved, so it’s probably the Creator’s consideration.]
I don’t like having my ability exposed, so when I first got it, it seemed that the Creator worked hard.
‘Why didn’t a nobleman with such power find me because the game server was down?’
I remembered the memory of being locked up because I had a problem with the server while having powers beyond common sense, so I decided to ask the next time we met.
As I walked while talking to the system, I almost arrived at my destination shortly after.
——————————
Around the time Lee Jin-seok was visiting the gangsters himself.
“By the way, how long do we have to wait here?”
“Continue until the quest is completed.”
“Yes? It’s the answer you’ve been waiting for, knowing when it would come.”
“I don’t know, but first of all, he’s waiting in the place where he’s seen the most, so he’ll come out soon.”
“Haa…Anyway, isn’t that what I mean by waiting without a promise?”
The three gangsters who gathered to scare Lee Jin-seok under Kang Chul-shik’s orders are currently waiting for Lee Jin-seok in a car.
At first, I was just going to wait around his house myself, but strangely, I never knew his house.
I wondered what was going on, so I asked the guys who did the background investigation, but the answer that came back was that it disappeared like a ghost every time.
When I tried to follow him home, he suddenly disappeared from my eyes, so I couldn’t find him at all.
I heard that I tried several times, but I just gave up because there was no income.
‘There’s no way such nonsense could happen.’
Hearing that, I thought it was absolutely impossible.
The opponent is just an ordinary person who knows nothing. I haven’t researched the past, but I can tell.
If they were someone who could notice the tailing and disappear from sight in an instant, they wouldn’t have let them go.
‘If he was such a skilled person, he would have investigated to find out the cause right away.’
This one, too, is not good enough to be called an expert when it comes to investigating people.
Even if the goal this time was entrusted with their background investigation, there was no way they would not know.
“Shut up and just follow orders. I heard that this job is quite expensive.”
“How much do you say?”
“It is 500.”
“Yes? You don’t even know the house, you just keep waiting, and it’s only 500?”
To be honest, if you know the house you live in and can fulfill the request right away, 5 million won is an incredibly good price.
However, right now we don’t know exactly where the target lives, and the information we have is that it often wanders around this place.
Still, one thing is certain: I always visit this place one day out of every week.
“It will be over within a week, so don’t worry too much and just relax.”
Waiting while eating snacks in the car like that.
“Hey, I can still go early today.”
“Yes? What do you mean?”
“Hey, you see a guy walking around.”
The captain pointed to Lee Jin-seok, who was walking from afar wearing a simple gym suit and said.
———————-
“Hmm…If it came this far, would you like to see it?”
[Yes, the other party seems to already know.]
Judging from the location indicated by the system, the remaining distance is less than 100m.
It was also a bit dark, so I was worried about what I would do if I couldn’t find it, but it seemed like it was for nothing.
When you deliberately don’t look in the direction where they are and just walk normally.
The guys in the car got out of the car and started slowly walking toward me.
‘It’s still impossible here.’
Even though it was dark, this place was still open and unsuitable for harm.
That’s why I deliberately moved to a place where people don’t go often to attract them.
By the time I moved to a place where even that common street light was sparse.
Sensing the signs of the gangsters chasing us from behind, I went further into the corner on purpose.
Around the time Lee Jin-seok was moving alone to a place where people were not familiar.
“Hyung-nim, does he go to a place where there are few people on his own?”
“It must be easy to handle, I was thinking about how to attract it.”
“I’m not sure about something… You already know us, don’t you?”
Concerned about the newcomer who just didn’t come in, the manager said, thinking that he was nervous.
“Don’t talk nonsense, if you knew, you would have known when investigating.”
“But…We don’t know the house he lives in, do we?”
“It is a coincidence. Coincidentally, it didn’t seem that special when I saw it.”
If you live as a gangster and have many fights, you can get a sense of the opponent just by looking at them.
That guy is a bit dangerous. That guy is just a guy who can easily win.
It’s like a feeling that you learn directly with your body while fighting an opponent for a long time.
And he had long believed in his intuition, which had been rolling around behind him.
Without knowing how unreliable that feeling was.
“Let’s go.”
“Yes.”
“Yes.”
———————–
[User, we will meet soon.]
‘Yeah, I know that well.’
I was checking the interface that the system displayed to see that they were coming towards me, and I pretended not to know anything and just stared ahead.
If I keep walking like this, they will soon stop me or surround me.
Since violence could be used at any cost, I decided to prepare myself by straining my body.
-Tattah tatak!
As soon as the distance started to close to some extent, I heard the sound of quiet but fast footsteps.
I was coming with as little noise as possible to avoid getting caught, but this side already knew everything.
And by doing that, I was sure. It means that the opponent is not trying to call me up, but intends to use violence from the beginning to bring me down.
– Booung!
한 놈이 내 바로 등 뒤로 다가와서 주먹을 휘두를 때까지 고개를 돌리지 않았던 나는 공기를 가르는 소리가 들리자 몸을 옆으로 옮기며 고개를 살짝 숙였다.
“Uh?”
I didn’t even notice this side in a fairly defenseless state, but the fist I swung with all my might from behind didn’t hit.
설마 상대가 피할 거라고는 전혀 생각하지 않았는지 전력으로 내지른 주먹이 빗나가자 조폭의 신체는 잠깐 중심을 잃을 수밖에 없었다.
“Once a guy.”
“Ugh!!”
At the timing when he was losing his balance and staggering slightly, he turned around and punched the guy in the abdomen.
키는 나보다 약간 작지만 덩치는 훨씬 커다란 조폭은 인간의 내장이 몰려있는 급소에 주먹을 맞자 잠깐 주춤했다.
‘이 정도로는 부족한가?’
제한한 상태에서 최대한 힘을 써 주먹을 날렸는데 역시 덩치가 있어서 그런지 상대는 짧은 신음만 내고 다시 자세를 회복했다.
그래도 나름 있는 힘껏 쳤는데 멀쩡해 보이는 모습에 나는 힘의 제한을 더 풀어도 된다고 생각해 조정을 하려는 찰나.
“How did know?”
One of the two guys approaching from behind, not the one next to me, asked me.
A man in a black suit with a shallow cut on his cheek and sharp eyes.
At first glance, the way he told me that I was the leader, I told him as if it was nothing special.
“다 보이는데 그걸 어떻게 몰라.”
“그럼 여기까지 온 것도 일부러?”
“Of course, I knew from the moment you got out of your car.”
“Under…”
인적도 드문 곳에서 수상한 사람을 세 명이나 앞에 두고 당당히 말하는 이진석의 모습에 한진철은 헛웃음을 지었다.
“You dragged us in knowing that?”
“때려눕힐 자신이 있으니까.”
“젊어서 그런가 겁이 없군.”
Even though there seemed to be nothing, Han Jin-cheol was dissatisfied with Lee Jin-seok, who was so confident even with many opponents.
I’ve seen a lot of opponents like that while going through various life-threatening chaos, but their ending is always the same.
‘Since I don’t even know the fountain, I’ll either die soon or lose a limb and retire.’
If you go out in a situation where your life is at stake, you die. Even if he doesn’t die, he loses one of his limbs and retires.
When he hit his former subordinate, he showed that he had learned some martial arts, but even that is useless in real combat.
매너를 중요시 하는 탓에 규칙을 정하고 관중들의 눈을 즐겁게 하기 위한 스포츠 따위 이쪽 입장에서는 너무 하찮았다.
It is basic to use weapons, such as throwing sand in the eyes or stabbing with your fingers.
주먹을 잘 피하는 상대에게는 달려들어 땅에 눕힌 다음 귀나 코 같은 연약한 부분을 뜯을 기세로 물어뜯는다.
I had to fight with the momentum that I would die if I didn’t kill the opponent, but the martial arts I learned for self-defense were useless.
“Well…Think that life teaches you.”
Looking at the brave young child, Chul-shik Han approached him clenching his fist, thinking that he was giving him a lesson about life.
