Chapter 301

Episode 301 District 4 (2)

“Regen District 4?”

“They want me to escort the tower owners while they repair the barrier in Area 4?”

Baek Woo-jin opened the mission book and showed it to Moon Ju-young.

“Is there such a mission?”

“ah! there is! “Every five years, two Lucas Tower owners and an absolute self-sufficient unmanned person go to inspect the barrier in Regen Area 4.”

“okay?”

“The timing is perfect.”

Moon Joo-young showed me an article from 5 years ago on his cell phone.

-Did your father give you instructions? Isn’t it too obvious to say that you have a mission as soon as you return?

‘Probably not my father.’

Baek Woo-jin shook his head.

-why?

‘My father failed to kill me even though he used the Kaiser and the Great Yeonmunju. Because of that, my self-esteem plummeted to the bottom. But doing it again? Is it visible like this? I’m not that stupid.

If this mission had come while my father had not returned, I would have been suspicious, but if it had come the day after my father returned, there was a high possibility that it had nothing to do with my father.

‘Besides, the only people who can catch me are my father or the head of the red family. There is no threat unless all four Lucas tower owners attack at the same time.’

-Definitely....

Darkness nodded the blade. After listening to Baek Woo-jin’s words, it seemed like he had nothing to do with Baek Cheon-hwa.

-So you’re saying this is a mission you just came down to without any tricks?

‘That could be true, but someone else could have planned it.

-Someone else?

‘The Lucas guys who will go with me...’

– Well, you’ve touched them all at least once.

‘Except for the yellow tower.’

I didn’t touch them, I just received arguments from them, but there was a definite grudge relationship with the Red Tower, Blue Tower, and Green Tower.

-Then are you going to cancel?

‘No, I have to go.’

Baek Woo-jin signed the mission statement and returned it to Moon Ju-young.

“Are you leaving?”

“I don’t think it would be a bad way to warm up before the duel.”

“Hmm, maybe it’s a trap...”

“It’s okay,”

he continued with a grin.

“I’m confident that I can win no matter what comes now.”

**

Two screens were floating on the red tower owner’s desk.

The right screen displayed the blue tower owner Kang Baek-in’s face, and the left screen displayed Um Woo-seong’s face.

“Baek Woo-jin accepted the mission.”

[You didn’t have any doubts?]

Kang Baek-in pushed his face so hard that it came through the screen.

“They said they contacted Lee Young-hyun of the association. I think they have some suspicions.”

[I’m glad. It’s not normal for that suspicious guy to come without any confirmation.]

“That’s right. But he won’t notice anything.”

Kim Jeong-woo smiled coolly. Repairing the barrier in the Regen area was an actual mission, and at the time the mission came down, there was no one else to do it except Baek Woo-jin. Even if he was suspicious, he wouldn’t get any information. [Still, you have to be careful. There’s no gap for that

guy

. Do not show.]

“Of course. I will not let the slightest emotion show.”

Kim Jeong-woo grinned at Um Woo-sung’s warning. He didn’t become the owner of the tower simply because of his research achievements and abilities. He

could do as much as smile in front of the enemy in order to stab him from behind.

[You must be mistaken.]

“What?”

[The tower owner lost his disciple to Baek Woo-jin. In other words, they have an enemy-like relationship.]

Um Woo-sung

continued with an expression that seemed emotionless like a doll. You must feel that you are angry but are holding back because of the mission.]

[My thoughts are the same.]

Kang Baek-in agreed with Um Woo-sung and looked at Kim Jeong-woo’s screen.

[Baek Woo-jin is a mean guy who is on top of other people’s heads. . We must never forget that there are countless people who have been misled while playing tricks on him.]

“Hmm, I understand.”

Kim Jeong-woo bit his lip.

‘That’s right.’

As Uhm Woo-sung said, it is widely known that Baek Woo-jin is quick-witted. You must never let down your guard.

“I understand. Just as you said, I will reveal my emotions so that no one can doubt.”

[I will go to Area 4 the day before the mission and prepare to kill him. I hope you proceed as planned.] As Um Woo-sung

‘s eyes glowed golden on the screen, Kim Jeong-woo and Kang Baek-in’s eyes also flashed the same color. “

Of course .” “It is.”

[Don’t worry.]

Kim Jeong-woo and Kang Baek-in nodded like people possessed by a ghost.

It’s strange. Although they

are lower in age, skill, and rank, the two top owners did not ask any questions or doubt about Um Woo-sung’s instructions and just did it. I accepted it. It was no exaggeration to say that it was a one-sided trust.

[Then I will trust you two.]

As Um Woo-sung said, communication between the three people was cut off.

“Uhm....”

Kim Jeong-woo tapped the desk with his fingers and frowned. I frowned.

‘What is it?’

I felt like a part of my mind had gone black. I felt like I was missing something, but I couldn’t figure out what it was.

“No.”

“Oh yes!”

Park Joo-hoon swallowed dryly and nodded,

“Is the briefing over?”

“That’s right.”

“When is the departure time?”

“We leave in three hours.”

“Then I will leave first. “I have instructions to give to the prosecutors.”

Baek Woo-jin said hello to the two tower owners and left the conference room.

“I have something I haven’t told the prosecutor yet, so I’m going!”

Park Joo-hoon could not bear the cold atmosphere and bowed his head to the two top owners and followed Baek Woo-jin.

“....”

Kim Jeong-woo and Kang Baek-in looked straight ahead in silence for a moment.

“I just...”

“Wait a minute.”

Kim Jeong-woo interrupted Kang Baek-in and snapped his fingers. The red light radiating from his fingers enveloped the entire room.

It was a red search spell that found working machines or magic tools.

Tiing!

The search spell detected the projector and automatic screen vent and then disappeared.

“There is no wiretapping.”

Kim Jeong-woo nodded and used Silence Space to prevent sound from escaping.

“You are very cautious.”

“You never know.”

“That’s right. Anyway, the acting was perfect. It felt like a teacher who lost a student and was in a hurry. “If I didn’t know, I would have been fooled too.”

Kang Baek-in raised his thumb. No matter how bad a student is, a student is still a student. There was no doubt that he showed his sorrow for losing his student.

“It wasn’t acting.”

“hmm?”

“Just like I heard, that damn guy has a knack for turning people inside out. “I really wanted to kill you.”

Kim Jeong-woo clenched his fists so tightly that blood flowed out. Just looking at Baek Woo-jin’s face made me angry, and I was so angry at his sly attitude that I felt sick.

“Hmm, anyway, we’ve passed the most important step. “He won’t suspect us.”

“okay. “As planned, Um Woo-sung brings the boss, and when he fights the boss, I hit him in the back with that magic and it’s over.”

Um Woo-sung said he would deceive the boss of District 4.

When Baek Woo-jin and his swordsmen deal with the bosses and monsters in District 4 controlled by Um Woo-seong, the situation ends when they hit them in the back.

Kim Jeong-woo and Kang Baek-in looked at each other and nodded. The two top owners trusted Um Woo-sung to a strange degree, even though they originally had no relationship at all.

“We have to get ready, so let’s go.”

“I look forward to seeing him howl and die.”

The two disarmed the spell and left the conference room.

Sigh.

After a while. The door to the conference room opened as wide as a finger, and a man in black came in through the crack.

It was surprising that a person could enter a gap that could barely fit an insect, let alone an animal.

“Is this it?”

The man went to where Baek Woo-jin was sitting and picked up the black button that had fallen on the floor.

“A button shuttle! “I am a thief, not an errand boy!”

He pouted as he scanned the black buttons.

“Hey, it’s my palja.”

The man sighed and turned around. His body blew out like a candle and disappeared from the conference room.

**

Moon Joo-young and the medical school were still briefing, so Baek Woo-jin was sitting in the private waiting room.

-Why did you leave behind the recording button that Seo Gong-myeong gave you?

‘Because it’s strange.’

-You are a very good detective. What else is strange?

‘It feels similar to when my father showed angry eyes upon his return.’

Baek Woo-jin’s eyes cooled down.

‘It makes sense that the Red Tower lord hates me. Because I killed his disciple.’

No matter how much of a murderer he was, the master of the Jeoktap would have loved him, so it is natural that he would hate himself for killing his disciple and putting the Jeoktap to shame.

-But what’s strange?

‘The situation is so precise as if it was set with a ruler.’

The Red Tower State’s response was textbook-like. Because it was a perfect situation where there was no need for doubt, doubts arose.

In fact, if my father hadn’t shown signs of anger, I wouldn’t have suspected Jeoktapju.

The thought that it was strange for two people who had a grudge against me to get angry with similar feelings came to my mind even more strongly.

-It’s my opinion, but I think you’re overreacting.

‘Things like that happen, too. So, let’s check.’

Baek Woo-jin nodded. As the darkness said, if it wasn’t a big deal, I could simply finish the mission and go back, so there was no problem.

Rattling.

As Baek Woo-jin was organizing his thoughts, the door opened and a man in black came in.

“Mission accomplished!”

Muyounggaek took off his mask and grinned.

“I brought it!”

The guy knelt down, bowed his head, and held out the button.

– On the topic of Muyounggaek, the form is....

“Nothing special happened, right?”

“Who am I? “The world’s best martial artist! There were no mistakes!”

“Good work.”

Baek Woo-jin smiled and accepted the button.

Ugh.

He injected aura into the button and placed it on the table.

“Then let’s hear what you think.”
