Chapter 461 – Ambush
It was late at night when Park Ha-eun was having a conversation with Lee Jong-wook about the nature of the escort target at the PMC.
“How’s the plan going?”
“So far it’s been running successfully.”
“It’s a precious preparation for revenge, so prepare without a hitch.”
“Of course. We will make arrangements so that there is no disruption to the plan.”
In Harlem, the capital of the United States, a very dangerous story was coming and going.
Where there is light, there is always darkness behind it. That was even worse than in Korea in the United States, where the gap between the rich and the poor was severe.
There were quite a lot of people gathered at the bar that existed deep in Harlem.
To find what they have in common, they all have a very serious face or a very serious face.
The atmosphere was so dark that no smiles or happy expressions could be seen.
Among them, a man with half his face distorted by burns sitting at the head of the bar.
A man named David was currently having an important conversation with the mercenaries who would carry on his will.
“First of all, did you succeed in attracting the two?”
“The infiltrator confirmed that he was having a conversation with President Ron at the Immortal PMC.”
“It is not enough to just talk. Since their son is here, they may not accept the request.”
“Looking at the atmosphere, they say it seems like they have already accepted it. He said he saw you come back today to talk about the escort.”
“Hmm…”
David frowned in disapproval at the unconfirmed information.
He hides the distorted half of his face with a white mask, making it hard to see.
To him, the burned half of his face was like a mark that existed to amplify resentment and hatred.
‘I don’t like it.’
The mercenaries currently here are revenge demons who have gathered for revenge due to their own grudges.
Most of them have already avenged themselves, but they are still here to avenge others.
Since they helped avenge themselves, they must also help others avenge themselves.
Since they were the purpose of revenge in the first place, they were all those who agreed.
Of course, there were those who did not agree, but since they no longer exist in this world, there was no need to care.
‘I think I’ve gathered enough useful words…’
Looking around and checking the personnel, David felt his heart pounding, which seemed to have stopped since the loss of his family, as he thought he was getting his long-cherished revenge.
“They are the core of this plan, so bring solid information unconditionally.”
“I will order you to find out a little more.”
“There shouldn’t be a single mistake. It is against the United States, so everyone check it out for yourself.”
“Yes.”
Among mercenaries, Lee Jong-wook and Park Ha-eun are so talented that they are called a lucky couple.
A married couple who are said to have a miraculous chance of surviving any request, no matter how dangerous, if they work together.
The two couples tried not to make enemies as much as possible while working as mercenaries, but as long as they worked, it was inevitable that they would have enemies.
And among them, there is no one who is determined to take revenge and plans for nearly 10 years.
The number of people who owed their lives to the two of them as mercenaries for 20 years could not be counted.
However, it was all useless to David, who had already risked everything and became a vengeful demon.
Because he lost his precious family because of the two of them, and he has been living a life like a disabled man for revenge for a long time.
Having thought that, David resigned after hearing about the plan from the mercenaries who played their respective roles.
“When are you planning to move?”
“Nothing has been confirmed yet, so please wait a little longer.”
“Some impatient guys are trying to make their own moves.”
James, one of the first to seek vengeance with David, deliberately offered himself as his right-hand man.
His main job is to mediate the grudges of the mercenaries and to keep an eye on them in case they are mad for revenge.
Having lost one of his eyes to the Immortal PMC and the loss of a loved one, he had a grudge similar to David’s losing his family.
“The big world is right in front of you. If there are guys who want to rampage, tell them to wait because they will move within the next week.”
“All right.”
Skull, a group of mercenaries founded for revenge.
They have already committed a great deal of terrorism to avenge each other.
However, because they always move thoroughly, their identities are barely revealed at the level of ghosts.
To that extent, David was quite good at handling people and making plans.
Perhaps if he hadn’t lost his family, he would have accumulated a lot of assets and retired and lived a normal life.
“How will the US react?”
“There is no response. They wouldn’t even know we were here in the first place.”
“Pride is forbidden. Be unconditionally careful.”
Now, they are trying to stage a terrorist attack in the capital of the United States, the final stage of their revenge.
It will be difficult to move as an international enemy if you cause terrorism as much as Americans who are very sensitive to terrorism.
Everyone else’s revenge has been fulfilled, so now it’s their turn.
Recalling the contract he had made while gathering the necessary personnel for revenge, David thought about the plan once again as he got into the car.
‘It’s not long now.’
For 10 years, he endured and endured to take revenge on Lee Jong-wook and Park Ha-eun.
How long did you put up with it to let them know how great the pain of losing a family member is?
Having endured for 10 years helping others avenge himself, he is now ready to spark the last splendid spark.
——————————
By the time the other side was preparing for terrorism.
I was quietly choosing items in the house, and as soon as I hurriedly came in, I waited for the two of us to talk to my dad until late at night.
‘There is a problem with the character of the escort target…’
I already know what he is talking about so closely by checking the system.
It was only natural that I was watching everything my mom was talking about at the PMC.
‘System, tell me about the escort target for mom and dad this time.’
[Please wait a moment.]
He has such a great personality that his veteran parents have been talking for such a long time.
Curious, I asked the system to provide information about the escort target.
After a while, the system started explaining, as if it had combined all the information.
[First of all, the name of the escort target of the user’s parents this time is Swan Keitel.]
Along with the name, the system showed a hologram of the granddaughter of President Ron, who is the escort target.
“Oh…”
When I saw the woman’s appearance and body in the hologram, I couldn’t help but admire it.
It was because she had a beautiful appearance that could be said to be unrivaled among the women I have met so far.
‘It’s higher than Yuanna and Lee Se-yeon, who have remodeled their bodies now.’
She is more beautiful than the two of them, who artificially created a perfect beauty and body with mutant sperm for several months.
I was only looking at it on the screen, but I wondered how much more beautiful it would be to see it in real life.
And I wondered why such a beautiful woman had such a severe personality that her parents talked to her like that.
[Swan Keitel has lived a life of luxury since he was young.]
‘I guess so.’
She is the only granddaughter of the president of a famous military company in the United States.
Because she is like that, she must have lived a life where everything she wanted was in her hands.
[In addition, she has a chronic problem.]
‘What is that?’
[She never listens to the words of a person who seems inferior to her.]
A system that said it never listened to anyone who looked below it told me one example.
[Even at school, her personality was famous, so her teachers neglected her. In the first place, the back stomach was strong, so no one touched it.]
Even in the compulsory education, all the teachers gave up because they showed a rebellious attitude.
But the system’s words did not end there. I don’t listen to the people who work in the house. If there is someone he doesn’t like, he will deliberately and persistently harass them.
The more I listened to it, the more I remembered the character of an immature rich girl, so I couldn’t help but sigh.
[The most important thing is that she habitually did not listen to her escorts and escaped without anyone noticing.]
‘It’s very serious.’
There was a time when I did not listen to what the escort said for safety and moved freely.
Hearing this, I could understand why my parents were talking for so long.
Although I don’t know much about mercenary work, I could understand my parents’ concerns as I had been through a similar situation with a game.
A bitch who is the main culprit of a forced event that causes a rich immature girl to escape escort and come in great danger.
If she didn’t know how to attack, she would have no choice but to suffer and almost die. How frustrated would it be if something like that happened in real life?
‘Shall I make them listen to me by threatening me first?’
Knowing that frustrating feeling, I tried to move first and fix her personality, but I quickly gave up.
Because this is real life, not a game, you can’t thwart your parents’ plans by making hasty moves.
I had no choice but to stay still because something unexpected could happen if I interfered with my father’s plan, who had a much better brain than mine.
‘My parents must suffer because of one immature bitch.’
What I can do now is to give my parents the protective items I have and to help them get out at any time in case of danger.
It was fortunate that I could help from a distance if I quietly watched through the system.
‘How’s the investigation into people who might want to take revenge on Chairman System Lone?’
I had already asked my parents to investigate the suspicious persons when they were referred.
Honestly, it was a question I almost gave up on because it was a very extensive research and it might not be caught if the other person didn’t use the machine.
[I did find some of the suspects, but they weren’t narrowed down precisely.]
And, as expected, the system was not found well because it was too extensive and lack of time.
It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that a system that always brings accurate information could hardly find an answer like that.
‘In the end, I’ll have no choice but to watch.’
Thinking that I wouldn’t be able to get information about them until something happened, I decided to deal with what was right in front of me.
Around the time we were killing time talking about systems and plans like that.
-Kikkik
Realizing that the door to the master bedroom was open, I thought that this was the right timing and approached my parents with the accessories I had prepared.
There was no difficulty in giving plausible excuses because they had already thought of the system and everything.
“Are you done talking about mom and dad?”
“Yeah, it’s all over. I’m sorry I left my son alone.”
“No, it can’t be helped if it’s a job.”
“My son is all grown up, and he understands what mom and dad are doing.”
When I approached with a smile, my mother called her son and gently hugged me as if she was sorry for talking about work among themselves.
“Rather than that, there is a present I brought from Korea, would you like to take a look at it?”
“Gift? What is it?”
When she mentioned her gift, she made an expression that she was already moved, even though her mother hadn’t even looked at her yet.
Even that father, who was always blunt, almost twitched his eyebrows as if he were surprised.
Seeing that, I remembered that I hadn’t given my parents a proper present since I became an adult.
‘I have to do well in the future…’
When I was young, I made carnations well on Parents’ Day, but when I remembered that I had never given a separate gift like this before, I thought I should do it often.
“I bought some for my mom and dad’s wedding anniversary soon.”
“Where are you? I want to see you soon.”
Perhaps because it was the first gift her son gave properly, her mother urged her to show it quickly.
At that urge, I laughed and took out the item I bought at the store and showed it to him.
An accessory set in a luxurious box, I bought it at a store with the idea of giving it properly.
“Oh! Mum, can I open it?”
“Yeah, this is mom’s and this is dad’s.”
I took out her pre-determined box and handed it to her mom and dad, who opened it with a big smile, and her dad smiled a little.
‘I’ve really been a trash son…’
His heart was pricked at the thought of how much he had lived like garbage, since his parents were so happy with just one gift from his son.
“Wow…So pretty.”
Opening her box and checking the accessories inside her, her mother was overjoyed as she held them in her hands one by one.
The rest is to check the look of my dad who doesn’t like accessories very much.
Because I can set the design myself at the store, I set it to be as non-flashy as possible, but I was nervous about whether I would like it.
“Thanks. Do well in the future.”
Fortunately, it was the first gift my son gave me, so my dad smiled and said thank you.
‘I’m glad.’
He was worried about what he would do if Dad said he didn’t wear accessories because he didn’t like them, but it didn’t seem necessary.
I hugged my parents once as I watched them smile and wear accessories for each other.
“Happy wedding anniversary.”
He added that the present he had just given was for the wedding anniversary.
