Chapter 30: Villain’s Battle (4)
“Huh...?”
At the moment the woman saw Yeongwoo’s golden eyes and made an expression of disbelief, a dagger swept through the air like a shooting star.
Swish!
The sound of tearing fabric filled the air as a security guard fell backward, slamming his head onto the ground.
Thud!
As the events unfolded in the blink of an eye, when the woman and the other security guards turned their heads, they saw only the lifeless body with a dagger embedded in its forehead.
Nearly half of the forces were already eliminated.
“Wow.”
“This... damn it.”
However, there was no time to be surprised.
Soon, the dagger, which had been lodged in the corpse, pulled itself out and returned to its original position.
Shiiiiing!
The two individuals followed the unbelievable trajectory of the dagger, realizing that the outsider at the center of the issue had not moved a single step.
“Wh-who are you, anyway?”
The remaining security guard, pressed under the dominance of the Strongest Sword, asked while struggling.
At this moment, he recalled the phrase the outsider had uttered earlier: “Die a dog’s death.”
It was not just boasting or provocation.
Moreover, the outsider didn’t even need to test his skills against him.
On the other hand, the woman twisted her body, taunting him with a sarcastic remark.
“Causing a ruckus in someone else’s neighborhood? And you think you’ll get away with it?”
Although the dialogue was overly formal, it strangely pleased Yeongwoo.
‘Is this woman going to take me to the Strongest Sword for my revenge?’
Observing the woman, the security guards, and the white sedan, Yeongwoo approached her and asked a few steps away.
“Who are you?”
“What?”
“Who are you to guarantee my safety? Is the Strongest Sword coming to save you? Why?”
Upon Yeongwoo’s inquiry, the woman’s eyebrows wrinkled in a slightly annoyed manner.
“I am...!”
However, the woman’s explanation did not continue smoothly.
“...”
From Yeongwoo’s perspective, he heard enough.
He spoke after her last sentence.
“Unless you’re a lover, it’s probably the mistress. But if it’s just that, it’s too exciting, isn’t it?”
After saying this, Yeongwoo quickly pierced the forehead of the remaining security guard.
Swish!
Due to his heightened strength and senses, the skull of an ordinary person felt like a lump of tofu to Yeongwoo.
Thud.
As Yeongwoo withdrew the blade he had extended, the unconscious body of the security guard convulsed as if being sucked into the shadows.Discover new chapters at novelhall.com
Kwoong.
Listening to this sound, Yeongwoo, slightly bending his waist, checked if there was anyone else in the vehicle to inspect further.
Meanwhile, all these scenes made the woman perceive Yeongwoo as a psychopathic murderer.
“What... What the hell are you doing to me? Why are you doing this to me?”
“I haven’t done anything to you yet. Besides, you sent those bastards first, swearing at me.”
After confirming that the inside of the car was empty, Yeongwoo pointed the blade at the driver’s seat.
“Drive. Let’s go to your lover.”
“What?”
While the woman wore a face questioning what nonsense he was talking about, Yeongwoo looted the early birds and pockets of the security guards.
“Do these guys get paid by the Strongest Sword? Why carry so much cash like this?”
“...Cash?”
“This.”
Yeongwoo thrust a handful of coins toward the woman, whose face seemed expressionless to anyone.
28,000 Karma.
“I don’t know. You should ask them yourself when you meet them.”
Swaying, the woman headed towards the driver’s seat.
Clearly, she intended to take the outsider to the Strongest Sword.
In response, Yeongwoo climbed into the passenger seat before the woman could attempt to run away with the car.
“...”
Although the woman’s expression soured at once, Yeongwoo paid no mind and pointed outside the window with his finger.
“Now, where are we going? To the City Hall?”
“Not the City Hall. We’re going to a motel nearby.”
“A motel?”
Yeongwoo didn’t have many good memories associated with motels.
With an annoyed expression, the woman started climbing the stairs.
The narrow staircase seemed to have been taken straight from the riverside motel in Gumi where Yeongwoo stayed.
Feeling a sense of discomfort, Yeongwoo followed the woman upstairs.
“....”
From around the second floor, an utterly foul odor, literally shitty, began to seep through his nose and tangle with the hair on his nostrils.
It was the stench of semen.
“What the hell, damn it.”
Unable to endure, Yeongwoo muttered, and the woman, glancing back, sighed with self-pity.
“What is it? It’s the end of the century.”
As they approached the third floor of the motel.
“Hey! Sehwan!”
An unexpectedly thunderous voice erupted from the woman’s throat.
“Strongest Sword came from the neighboring town to kill you!”
In response, Yeongwoo pushed the woman aside and continued up the stairs.
Then, from the inside of a long corridor to the right, a blurry silhouette emerged.
‘Is he the one?’
Yeongwoo was about to throw a dagger towards the silhouette but hesitated.
Because the opponent was a naked woman.
However, what appeared next was clearly him.
Thud.
A fairly sizable figure appeared behind the woman, adorned with a radiant title above his head.
『Strongest Sword of Sangju』
Strongest Sword of Sangju, Dokgo Sehwan 01.
2nd level, 147 defenses.
The man was naked, standing behind the woman, glancing at Yeongwoo and then turning his gaze to his wife.
“What did you say earlier? Who’s coming?”
“You idiot, another Strongest Sword is here to get you. If you don’t do well, you might die today.”
Otherworldly conversation between the Strongest Sword couple.
Yeongwoo realized that the opponent was unarmed and swiftly threw the dagger he had almost thrown before.
Swoosh!
The thrown dagger into the shadowy corridor looked like a real lightning bolt.
It was a momentary sight, but the light coming through the small window at the end of the corridor reflected off the dagger, and almost simultaneously, the silhouette of Dokgo Sehwan 01, the Strongest Sword of Sangju, shook.
Thud!
The sound was the dagger hitting the wall at the end of the corridor.
Yeongwoo’s attack, or rather, surprise, missed.
‘Crazy. This guy really consumed three million karma.’
Yeongwoo felt chills all over his body.
He then quickly retrieved the dagger, but Dokgo Sehwan noticed something strange and jumped into the adjacent room.
“Who’s this bastard?”
An angry voice echoed from Room 303.
He must be hastily preparing weapons.
Yeongwoo quickly crossed the corridor and arrived in front of Room 303.
Then, the same filthy smell from before spread, and a dreadful message appeared.
「The sense has temporarily increased from the original 100 to 428.」
Sense increased by 328 due to the odor of the golden flash.
This meant that the opponent’s sensory value was originally 656.
“Damn it...!”
However, Yeongwoo was too busy taking a defensive stance following the hologram that appeared in front of him to read the message.
Swoosh!
Dokgo Sehwan’s weapon was also an early bird, and it was so fast that even the Gumi Sword Technique couldn’t find an opportunity to counterattack.
Ping, pang, pa-pa-pang!
The two Strongest Swords exchanged more than a dozen strikes in a moment, and the naked woman who had been standing in the corridor until now ran away in surprise towards the stairs.
It was an unexpected scenario of someone, who was capable of dealing with the Strongest Sword appeared.
On the other hand, the wife of the Strongest Sword, Yun Seoyeon...
“...?”
As the outsider seemed to be in conflict with her husband, she hurriedly ran down the stairs.
It was to request assistance.
With all the monsters cleared and no special tasks, all the skilled individuals in Sangju City were likely to be nearby.
However, what awaited her at the end of the hurriedly descended stairs was a completely unexpected sight.
Thwoom!
Thwoom!
The first thing heard was an ear-piercing roar.
Seoyeon, who had rushed down the motel stairs in a hurry, looked out with a face full of disbelief.
Then, she saw numerous columns of light shooting down from the sky.
