Chapter 28: Journey To Ulsan (3)
The one flustered wasnt just the gang boss sitting in the back seat; Yun Sang-mi felt equally bewildered.
It was a skill she had never encountered before.
Moreover, its novelty aside, the ability to explode a persons head was profoundly shocking.
She felt an involuntary chill run down her spine.
She couldnt begin to guess the nature of the skill.
Does it make the blood explode? Like how a black magic hunters mana burning skill works? Maybe it incinerates the blood.
Yun Sang-mi, armed with plenty of hearsay and experience, pondered the makeup of Kang-hoos skill.
Ive never heard of a skill that burns blood. And its destructive power is on a completely different scale from that of mana burning.
In terms of raw destructive force, mana burning paled in comparison.
At most, mana burning could cause minor burns.
How does this guy get stronger every time I see him? And all within a matter of days?
Yun Sang-mi couldnt help but laugh hollowly.
The remaining gang members faces grew grim, likely a response to the humiliation and loss of their comrades.
It was as if the fear of meeting the same end began to spread among them like a contagion.
Anyone who wants to get out, get out now.
Kang-hoo gestured towards the still-open middle door of the bus with his dagger.
Yet the gang members shut their eyes tight, conscious of their bosss gaze from the rear.
Above all, they were mortified.
The thought of fleeing, when they still outnumbered their opponents eight to two, was disgraceful.
Perhaps that was the catalyst.
Die, you bastard!
Two gang members, refusing to dwell on the thought, rushed towards Kang-hoo.
Simultaneously,
Dont get in the way, just stay there.
Kang-hoo reached out towards Yun Sang-mi, who stood behind him.
It was a cautionary gesture, warning her not to step in unnecessarily.
If she engaged with her broadsword, he wouldnt be able to move as freely as he needed.
Yun Sang-mi nodded, signaling her understanding.
Although she itched to fight, she had no desire to obstruct Kang-hoos path.
Instead, she thought it might be more interesting to cross her arms and watch the situation unfold from behind.
It looked like fun.
Pfft!
With a leap, Kang-hoo vanished.
Yun Sang-mi, trusting in Kang-hoos ability to handle the fight, shifted her focus to the driver.
The driver, who had been staring ahead in terror, jerked as Yun Sang-mi approached.
Are you okay?
Yes, yes, yes! Im, Im fine!
I cant ask you to trust me, but dont worry. Were not here to harm you.
Ah, understood!
Just follow your usual route. And later, when I signal, hit the brake once. Okay?
Understood!
Yun Sang-mi, harboring a mischievous plan, made preparations to assist Kang-hoo.
Meanwhile.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
Ugh!
Argh!
Kang-hoo had dived into the heart of the gang, plunging his dagger into their shoulders, armpits, and elbows.
It wasnt fatal, but he targeted areas that would disable their ability to fight instantly.
In the confined space, Kang-hoo deployed his illusion technique, sowing chaos with his unpredictable movements.
As a result, some hunters, aiming at Kang-hoos illusions, struck each othera critical error.
Moreover, Kang-hoos horizontal movement skill, which was vital to his survival, included a stealth effect that increased their disarray.
Where the hell is he?
In frustration, a hunter shouted.
To them, it was absurd that they couldnt even keep track of Kang-hoo in the relatively small bus.
But that moment of disbelief was brief.
Thud!
Ugh.
A hunters life ended abruptly, his mouth agape as Kang-hoos dagger pierced precisely through the back of his neck.
Cash. He was talking about money.
When they boarded this bus, those guys must have thought the same.
I dont have it. I dont have any money.
Is that so.
Sssshh!
Aaaagh!
As soon as the words were out, Kang-hoo slightly twisted the dagger diagonally.
The boss screamed in pain, unable to bear the agony as flesh was gouged out.
So it doesnt really matter if you die now, does it?
Damn it
It must hurt. Ill overlook the swearing. But if I have to repeat myself, thats the end.
Wait, wait!
Feeling the force Kang-hoo exerted on the gripped dagger, the boss urgently extended his arms, shouting.
His voice carried not just a warning, but a genuine fear that his life might be at its end.
At last.
I have 700 million! My account holds 700 million!
He declared the price of his life.
Kang-hoos expression, which had remained stern, softened naturally.
Thats the spirit. Negotiations are straightforward when both parties shed their greed.
Five minutes later.
Having confirmed the deposit of 700 million won, Kang-hoo appeared content.
The boss now possessed a mere 30,000 won, barely enough for his passage to the afterlife.
Finding no further use for the boss, Kang-hoo stood and yanked the dagger upward.
Sssshh!
Guk?
The boss, glaring at him with eyes full of resentment, received a nonchalant shrug from Kang-hoo.
I said negotiations were possible. I never implied they concerned your life.
Pshhhh!
Boom!
The bosss life concluded with a spurt of blood, erupting like a fountain.
I must remember to listen to classical music during my downtime.
The constellation Father of Music was newly listed among Kang-hoos constellations following a successful plunder.
Despite its grandiose title, the Dimension Plunderer remained silent, perhaps due to its underwhelming abilities.
Kang-hoo then methodically dispatched the remaining hunters, who lay groaning from their wounds.
With their arms and shoulders, vital for combat, severely damaged, they posed no real threat.
Two tried to escape by leaping out of the bus door, but their fate was no kinder.
Tragically, they met their demise beneath the buss rear wheel, crushed to death in what amounted to suicide.
Thus, the bus was purged.
The ten hunters who had harbored grand plans to profit from Kang-hoo and Yun Sang-mi all took the express route to the afterlife.
Bus driver, shut the door. Its finished now.
Kang-hoo then addressed the driver, glancing at the still-open middle door.
The situation was resolved.
The only living people on the bus were himself, Yun Sang-mi, and the driver.
Yun Sang-mi, now breaking into a sweat, clicked her tongue as she looked at Kang-hoo.
It was proof that he had expended less energy than expected, even during such intense combat.
Oppa is really something
Everyone keeps their own spoils.
Alright.
Kang-hoo unzipped his backpack.
It was time to carefully pack the spoils of battle.
Monsters leave experience points when they die, and hunters leave items, dont they?
Now it was time to harvest the rewards of victory.
And then.
[Soul Mate - Gloves]
[Grade: 5th Grade]
[A one-handed glove item that increases health points according to level.]
[Can increase health by up to a maximum of 200 points.]
Oh?
A particularly remarkable item caught his attention. It was a glove taken from the bosss hand.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
