Chapter 191: Everyone’s Strongest Sword (11)

“What... what do you think?”

At Gangdong Strongest Sword Kim Juwoo’s question, Oh Yeonhee glanced back for a moment.

They were currently on the Olympic Bridge connecting Songpa and Gwangjin-gu.

She was in the process of transitioning from her current district, Songpa, to Gwangjin-gu after dealing with the mutant in Songpa and the border with Gangdong-gu.

She wanted to know if Jeong Yeongwoo’s plan to sweep away all the mutants to Gwangjin-gu had really succeeded.

“Well... What else can we do? If the situation isn’t good, we have to fight together.”

“Even though there’s a high chance there’s a dragon there...?”

“Were you planning to just sit still until that dragon crawled into Gangdong-gu?”

Yeonhee, who was speeding away at Kim Juwoo’s weak voice, glanced back again.

Of course, Kim Juwoo, who had recently joined the Strongest Sword assembly, didn’t know much about Gangnam... no, about the importance of Jeong Yeongwoo, the Strongest Sword of Joseon.

He hadn’t seen Jeong Yeongwoo swing his elbow to cut off the head of his predecessor, nor had he seen him fight the swords from the north.

‘...Jeong Yeongwoo is an irreplaceable madman. It’s fortunate he’s not our enemy.’

Songpa’s Strongest Sword, Yeonhee’s gaze was now back to the front.

Probably heading towards Gwangjin-gu, where Jeong Yeongwoo and numerous mutants were locked in a power struggle.

“It’s only natural for Strongest Swords in the same Seoul area to do their best to help each other.”

This time she spoke without looking back.

“And especially, Gangnam’s Strongest Sword must stay alive no matter what.”

As Yeonhee said this, Kim Juwoo replied with a look that seemed to understand but also seemed uncertain.

“Why? Of course, I know he’s strong, but...”

Why does everyone treat Jeong Yeongwoo specially?

According to Kim Juwoo, the Strongest Swords of Seoul seemed to respect him while also fearing him.

Yeonhee immediately responded.

“Because he’s too strong.”

“...?”

“He’s too strong, and nobody else can match that strength. Literally irreplaceable.”

This wasn’t just a matter of hierarchy.

It was a character issue.

Could anyone else change body parts into alien ones, enslave mutants, and secretly prepare laser bombardment?

This wasn’t something that just a strong person could do.

There had to be something more than just strength, but Yeonhee, who had lived relatively within common sense, didn’t know what that was.

So she could only hope that Jeong Yeongwoo would hold his position.

‘But if by any chance Jeong Yeongwoo dies, someone will have to take his place.’

And if possible.

‘It would be most desirable for that to be me.’

That was the real reason Yeonhee was heading to Gwangjin-gu.

[PR/N: Can’t trust em bishes ever smh smh]

The equipment that would be left behind if Jeong Yeongwoo were to be defeated for some reason.

She was heading to Gwangjin-gu to collect that equipment in case of emergencies.

But as the distance to Gwangjin-gu shortened, Yeonhee’s unexpected expectations began to shatter little by little.

‘Oh my god.’

Although mutants were still moving in Gwangjin-gu.

The fact that their numbers were decreasing in real time was also clearly visible.

“What... What’s going on?”

At the alarming explosion, Kim Juwoo exclaimed in surprise, and Yeonhee pointed with her hand to somewhere in front.

“Probably that person.”

Inside Gwangjin-gu she pointed to, there were Strongest Swords gathered from various places in Seoul, and there was a person sitting among them, pulling a bow surrounded by them.

“...?”

Seeing the unmistakable figure of Jeong Yeongwoo, Yeonhee made a puzzled expression as if she couldn’t understand.

Then the problematic person shot another arrow and the Strongest Swords on the other side cheered at the moment the mutants were brought down.

“What... what’s happening?”

* * *

“Wow...!”

“One shot?”

“He’s insane, really.”

From Yongsan, Mapo, Dongdaemun, Seongbuk, Dobong, and finally to Eunpyeong, the Strongest Swords.

When six people shouted, Yeongwoo’s ears hurt more than his melting legs.

“Ah, it’s noisy. Are you guys that excited?”

Clack clack. relieved that it’s resolved.”

Yeongwoo, who lost 20 million Karma in front of his eyes, welcomed the two.

But he couldn’t go out to greet them properly due to his legs.

“Gwanak, Seocho... and Dongjak are missing.”

As Yeonhee, who had been counting the numbers, belatedly looked under Yeongwoo’s knees, she flinched.

“Yeongwoo, your legs...?”

“Ah, it’s okay. They’ll regenerate after some time.”

“Not even a lizard, and your legs will regenerate?”

Ah, realizing she misspoke, Oh Yeonhee covered her mouth with her hand.

But since everyone in this place had made the same mistake at least once, no one thought poorly of her.

‘I thought it would heal minor injuries? Even if your legs are at that point, they’ll grow back?’

So far, the only regenerative power of Yeongwoo that Oh Yeonhee had seen in person was the complete recovery of her burnt skin during the confrontation with Jeong Hyunsik.

‘So, he’s no longer human at this point...?’

As Oh Yeonhee looked at where Yeongwoo’s legs used to be with a horrified expression, Jeonggu slowly withdrew his luck.

“Uh... Then do I have to give you money too?”

It’s his father, who even filled out the relationship certificate, wondering if he’ll really tear off 10 million Karma.

To this, Yeongwoo nodded as if it were obvious.

“It wouldn’t be fair if I didn’t take money just because you’re my father.”

With these words, as if about to get up, Yeongwoo touched the ground with his arms, and the Strongest Swords around reflexively tried to support him.

“Uh...”

“Sh-should I help you up...?”

However, how could they lift Yeongwoo, whose knees were empty?

In fact, it would be more accurate to say, “Should I put you in?”

But Yeongwoo’s next move exceeded everyone’s expectations.

Thud!

He suddenly pushed the ground hard and soared into the air.

“....?”

“N-no, you...!”

The scene of Yeongwoo, without legs, bouncing high among the Strongest Swords, was bizarre to anyone who saw it.

What’s more,

Thump!

Yeongwoo’s landing point was on the back of the iron horse Negwig, which Kim Jeonggu had ridden.

Even now, when his legs were not healed, he was trying to do something else.

“Wh-where are you trying to go riding a horse?”

Jeonggu looked up at Yeongwoo.

Just a moment ago, this guy was on the ground, but now he was higher than anyone else here.

“When do you think my legs will grow back? I need to hurry and call the merchants.”

As Yeongwoo said this, he habitually pointed to the Strongest Swords in the audience with his remaining left hand.

Swish.

“There are two main things you all need to do from now on.”

Then, he raised his index finger with his remaining left hand.

“First, each of you should raise 10 million Karma. And secondly...”

Yeongwoo paused for a moment at this point, slowly looking around the desolate scenery of Gwangjin-gu.

Then he issued the second order.

“The second is a wanted list.”

“A wanted list...?”

“Yes. When merchants appear in each region, check the list of goods each one has and purchase what you want. However,”

As Yeongwoo tried to add a condition at the end, everyone perked up their ears.

“However... as I mentioned last time, if a device called a coordinate locator comes up, please let me know. And if there are any high-value martial arts or similar things that you cannot purchase, please report them to me as well.”

This was a request that Yeongwoo, who had gained a new spine and an additional martial arts slot, could make.

“That coordinate locator... is it related to the laser cannon you were secretly working on last time?”

Finally, Oh Yeonhee mentioned the problematic weapon discovered last night on behalf of everyone present.

At that, Yeongwoo let out a breath as if he had expected those words.

“Yes. What I’m looking for is a device that can find the coordinates for laser bombardment.”

“Wow.”

“Really?”

“...Unbelievable.”

Sure enough, the Strongest Swords all exclaimed in shock once again.

But now that this was brought up, Yeongwoo was planning to properly suppress the opponents.

“And once the coordinate locator is secured, I plan to conduct a test launch today. Here in Gwangjin-gu. Any objections?”
