Chapter 358 - Daggers at his direction

"Shut up with the nonsense. Don't you see how much of a big honour this is for us. Boss is sick, and that's why, we need to do this in his place. Boss will be proud of us if we do it perfectly, and that man would not be waiting long for us. 

Quickly take that item out and bring it. We can not afford to be late. Who knows what boss might do to us if we fail in this," the man with gruff voice spoke out— anger noticeable in his voice.

The other man let out a sigh and stated, "I guess you are right. We will be able to get a raise if this goes perfectly, but hopefully, we would not be getting into any kind of trouble. I heard about how troublesome these things can get."

"Don't talk about nonsense at this moment, and hurriedly take it out. Someone might come any instant, and it definitely would not be pleasant to get caught."

That's when, the sounds of something moving and locks being opened could be heard. Soohyun slightly moved the curtain before her in order to see what was going on.

However, she had remained unsuccessfully in doing so. The only thing that was visible in her view was a man taking out something from the box, and as for what that thing was, it was covered from her view.

After that, the man closed the box and kept it at its original position. With that done, both of the man did not waste a second longer in walking out of the room, and only when their coast was completely clear, both of them came out from behind the curtain.

Staring at Minhyun, she questioned, "Do we follow them?"

Han Minhyun nodded.

°°°

Following both of the man, the two of them walked into a forest clearing, and hiding behind a thick tree, they observed the situation before them.

Soohyun admired how she was able to follow after both of the man without them even getting slightly suspicious of their presence.

Both of the man stood in the forest clearing, and it appeared that they were waiting for someone. Soohyun scrunched up her forehead while she felt an ominous feeling rise within her.

'There is someone behind me.'

As soon as she felt that presence behind her, she instantly jumped away from that position with her heart beating rapidly within her c.h.e.s.t. Their plan was flawless, and they left behind no clue.

Raising her head, Soohyun saw a man with a scarred face stand in front of her, and on his face was a wide smile. She could sense that he was someone from the higher class— probably the first class.

Her eyes then fell on Han Minhyun who stood two steps before her, and a solemn expression sat on his face.

The scarred face man laughed and voiced out, "The two of you are really gullible; you fell right into the trap."

From the wilderness behind the scarred face man, many more members of the Red Clan had arrived, and one feature that was same for all was their Red Clan. All of them were under the control of the poision.

Lee Soohyun moved closer to Minhyun and thought about where it could have gone wrong inside their plan. It was as if the enemy knew about this from the very beginning.

However, how could they have known that they were planning to enter into Oh Jaeho's room? With Jaeho being monitored, it would not be possible for him to prepare this overnight. 

This entire thing left Soohyun wondering. However, this was not the right time to think about this thing. At first, she needed to get rid of the men before her.

Looking at their number, it would not be possible for both her and Minhyun to defeat them. Fleeing is the only best possible action for both of them at this moment.

However, it did not seem that Minhyun did not plan on fleeing at this time, and staring at him curiously, she wondered on about what he will be doing.

The scarred face man instantly moved towards Minhyun in order to attack him, and in his hand formed couple of daggers. Raising his hand, he instantly targeted them towards Minhyun.

Those men behind him came forward as well, and knowing that this was no time to be distracted, Soohyun was ready to fight as well.

Her ribbon appeared in her hand that moment, and having the advantage of it being invisible, she extended it towards the man that flew in her direction.

Flying through the wind, the ribbon moved against his c.h.e.s.t, making a cut in it, and as blood flowed down it, he collapsed down on the floor. On the successful attempt in attacking his heart, Soohyun felt proud of herself. 

However, knowing that this was too soon to celebrate, she turned back in order to attack the man behind of her.

As she slashed his c.h.e.s.t, someone directed his sword at Soohyun from the behind, and before that sword was able to fatally hurt her, she jumped from that position.

The sword scrapped against her back, creating a sharp cut, and it began to heal in that instant. Turning back, Soohyun closed her eyes and took a deep breath.

Letting the wind come out from her, she attacked the man before her with that. Her c.h.e.s.t hurt terribly from using her power, and she could feel her body from getting weak.

But she was left with no choice. Even though it was painful, she was required to do it in order to survive.

While Soohyun was doing that, Han Minhyun's eyes glowed while ice began to slowly cover his surroundings. In his hand appeared his sword, and noticing the daggers coming in his direction, Minhyun instantly jumped back.
