EP.48 Cut Go Uk-hee! Fuck Them All!!
I sneaked up to the rooftop.
No one noticed me coming up without making a sound.
Just from this, I could feel the difference between Go Uk-hee's side and the one-room side.
To think they made no preparations even though an assassin might come.
I watched quietly.
On the rooftop, three players were sniping with magic or guns.
It was an excellent sniping point, but.
'It's also a good point to be targeted.'
I tried to watch a bit more.
Everyone looked busy just doing their own thing.
Then a variable appeared.
People appeared quietly on both sides. They were lowering their posture as much as possible.
The two headed towards the snipers.
One player drinking a mana potion noticed and shouted.
"Huh? Be careful, behind you!"
"Kek!"
The intruders launched a surprise attack. They started with smiles from the beginning.
"Hihi, if you use skills like that, traces show so we know right away!"
"Beat them, fuck! These bastards who struck first!"
A battle broke out.
A 3 vs 2 situation.
The one-room side seemed advantageous but.
From the start, two people were in critical condition.
The one-room side wasn't relaxed.
'Should I step in now? No, Go Uk-hee or Moon Gang-hyun might notice.'
I should always be the true protagonist who brings down the curtain. That's the fun of doing this.
Until the fated moment comes, all I'll do is dabble in assassinations.
As expected, the one-room side was pushed back.
They were being helplessly overwhelmed.
In the end, all the snipers died, and only one person from the intruding side barely survived.
For a surprise attack, it seemed they fought quite evenly.
"Whew, I'm lucky."
The survivor picked up a sniper rifle the snipers had used and smiled.
I'm sorry about this.
I approached him as a shadow. Not knowing I was coming, he tried to aim with the sniper rifle.
I struck him with my club right away.
"Kkeohek!"
"Aren't I the lucky one?"
The rifle he dropped as he collapsed fell below.
I killed him while crouching as low as possible.
[Victory!]
[Gained 1000 Desire Points (DP)!]
The points were doubled.
A reward also came out.
But it was a shame no skill came out.
'It's a flaw in the jade. Then this.'
I chose a flash grenade.
With this, I should be able to accomplish big things.
I saw corpses around.
Only one thought came to mind.
'Should I revive and kill them?'
Even if a lot of mana is drained, it would be quite worthwhile.
But there was a problem. I recalled what the intruders just said.
'No, let's not act rashly. These guys came because they saw traces of skill use. There's no guarantee there aren't more like them.'
With bad luck, I might die while drinking a potion.
A place that allows not even an inch of gap.
That's what a battlefield was.
I tried to be cool since it was something I could do later too.
I carefully looked outside.
A melee was unfolding.
Then the rooftop door suddenly opened behind me. Since it would be people from the one-room side, I took off my mask and turned around.
I saw the ajusshi from earlier too.
"Ah, you came!"
"Huh? You are..."
"Everyone please defend here! We almost died earlier too!"
When I pointed at the snipers' corpses, everyone's faces changed to ones of alertness.
People moved right away.
They seemed quite organized, as if prepared for this kind of situation.
"Phew, the rooftop was almost breached. Everyone to your positions!"
"Yes!"
"Thank you, even though you must be resting."
I shook my head.
"I got strength without realizing. I'm anxious, if the building flies away like this..."
"No, don't worry."
I naturally joined the group and watched the battle.
The ajusshi standing next to me sighed.
That's how fiercely they were fighting. The ajusshi spoke.
"It's really brutal."
"Yes, that's what war is like."
"...If it weren't for these times. Everyone would be meeting for coffee and exchanging jokes, right?"
"I suppose so."
"The world is so ironic."
I smiled bitterly.
That's how the world and people are.
A world that doesn't go as you intend, unpredictable day by day like a goblin.
Isn't that the charm?
What the ajusshi said was idealistic, but. It was quite relatable.
Because that's how it would have been if the Celestial Horse Demon King hadn't come.
I slipped back slightly. It should be okay to move soon.
"Ah, I feel dizzy. Why is this happening."
"I told you to rest. Don't worry and step back."
"Haah, please."
I went down to the floor below the rooftop.
I immediately threw my body out the window.
I changed into a shadow and went straight down. It felt like riding an amusement park ride.
I put on my mask while landing safely.
The lucky mask Ivy gave me, I'll end this fight!
I checked the battle situation.
The numbers were gradually decreasing.
Then let me join in too!
I approached as a shadow, feeling dopamine being secreted like crazy.
Suddenly feeling killing intent, I turned around.
Kuwaaang!
A loud noise came from the rooftop.
More precisely, right above the rooftop, someone created something like a shaking rock and dropped it.
It had tremendous impact proportional to its enormous size.
The whole building shook.
'Crazy, is something like that possible? It must be impossible to do consecutively?'
I laughed dejectedly without realizing.
The people on the rooftop must have been annihilated. What does this mean.
'I was going to use the corpses later. But they all disappeared!'
This was a tremendous loss.
No. Let's do well even now.
I hid in a truck in the middle of the river and watched.
They were fighting each other really fiercely.
If skills didn't reach, they fought with weapons, and if weapons didn't work, they fought by biting with their teeth.
They were like demons from the asura realm.
'This is what war is like.'
My body trembled as if getting chills.
I turned my head.
Moon Gang-hyun was facing off against someone. I seemed to know who the opponent was at a glance.
'Ah, is that guy Go Uk-hee? I heard about his appearance from Seok-do.'
The two seemed to be talking about something. Then they entered combat.
Go Uk-hee was enveloped in light and transformed like a tokusatsu protagonist.
"Transform!"
Then he accelerated forward.
Moon Gang-hyun leapt backwards at the instantly closing distance.
He took out a switch from his pocket and pressed it while throwing.
Peng, peng, peoeng!
Bombs suddenly exploded one after another in the direction Go Uk-hee was going.
Go Uk-hee tried to dodge in zigzags somehow, but couldn't avoid one at the end and was blown away.
"Kuk!"
"Sorry, but I'm the brain type."
"You're quite annoying, you old fart."
"Tsk tsk, let's use pretty words, kid."
Go Uk-hee took out something like a badge and inserted it inside his transformation belt.
His appearance changed.
He was in a form wearing a flashy robe and a master's cap. What could it mean?
'An alchemist?'
Soon he touched his wrist, and suddenly two clones that looked similar to Go Uk-hee but with different colors appeared.
'Hooh, that's fresh?'
He charged straight in.
Moon Gang-hyun took out dual pistols and checked him.
One of the clones grabbed Moon Gang-hyun's gun and barely approached.
Moon Gang-hyun didn't panic and threw away the gun while accurately shooting the clone's head and chest as he retreated.
As he turned his eyes away from the clone falling dead, another clone popped out from the side.
He pressed another switch and blew it up.
Moon Gang-hyun fought better than expected.
Rather, as if he had foreseen this.
Go Uk-hee came out from behind him and threw a punch.
When even this was dodged by Moon Gang-hyun, Go Uk-hee leapt into the air.
He threw a spinning back kick twisting his whole body. He finally turned Moon Gang-hyun's jaw.
"Keuhuk!"
"Is that all?"
Moon Gang-hyun touching his jaw leaned his upper body.
Tremendous mana could be felt from him.
'Is that it? Berserker Soul?'
The tremendously manifesting mana suddenly burst with a pak sound.
Moon Gang-hyun screamed like a transformed person.
"Keuhaaaaak!"
He charged with an incredible momentum different from before. He swung his fist.
Go Uk-hee tried to block but his body shook and he was thrown backwards.
"Kuk, what?"
"Keuheoooooak!"
It was a monstrous scream like a beast from the depths of hell.
Go Uk-hee was flustered and took out another badge.
"Damn, time is... I have no choice."
The badge turned golden and entered the belt.
Golden light enveloped Go Uk-hee and he changed into a form wearing a crown and golden armor.
Moon Gang-hyun closed the distance in one breath.
Go Uk-hee spread his index finger and thumb wide and tilted them halfway.
"That's as far as you go!"
Teoeng! Tick tock tick tock.
Golden light spread from Go Uk-hee as the center and the sound of hour and minute hands moving was heard.
Moon Gang-hyun who was rampaging like a monster stopped in mid-air. It was an unbelievable moment.
'Time stop?!'
I was surprised.
Of course, there was a limit to the range itself so only Moon Gang-hyun was caught.
But he had actually stopped time.
"You did well. Now die."
Go Uk-hee tapped his belt twice and prepared something.
Is he going to use a final killing move?
But that will be difficult.
[Blink]
I instantly got behind Go Uk-hee.
The moment he turned around in surprise.
I swung my club towards the back of his head.
Go Uk-hee barely blocked by raising both arms.
He pushed me away with a front kick.
If the distance opens up, I have a lot I can do too.
[Freezing Wave]
I spread my hand. In front of it, something made of ice that looked like a dragon or imugi opened its mouth.
A sky blue wave flew out.
Go Uk-hee launched an energy mass shaped like a clock to offset it.
I aimed for this. I threw the flash grenade right away.
The flash grenade that exploded right in front of Go Uk-hee's nose emitted light as if coloring the world.
I quickly took out my gun and pulled the trigger. I hit Go Uk-hee who couldn't come to his senses and made him stagger back.
"Ugh! Who are you...?"
"I'm a sharpshooter you know. Take this!"
[Mana Binding]
I threw a net made of mana.
Go Uk-hee dodged by sliding.
I used Blink again to the spot he was trying to dodge to.
I swung my club with all my might.
This time it hit his jaw.
Ppagak!
The helmet part covering Go Uk-hee shattered. His face was finally visible.
Hooh, what a vicious-looking face indeed.
He fell spewing blood. The damage must be quite big.
"Keuuk, you, who are you...?"
"Me? The protagonist who made you come here."
"...What? Come to think of it, haah, fuck. It was you!"
"It's already too late."
"You bastard, you did this to our kids..."
"Your kids what? You're talking as if you shouldn't die?"
He shut his mouth. It's true that Go Uk-hee's gang is gathered from runaway families who cause problems.
Should I even spare them saying life is precious in these times?
That's ridiculous. I'm not a judge.
"You third-rate villain sure talk a lot. Then die."
I killed him by crushing his face.
The points were 1500 but I received more.
A skill came out among the rewards. I took it right away.
[Modern Heroes]
Type: Authority
Description: Manages badges containing specific attributes. Transform using badges.
"I'll fight for human freedom! -First Masked Racer"
"So this was it. Huh? But there's no transformation item?"
What's the point of this. It seemed I had to gather them gradually.
I approached Moon Gang-hyun while feeling disappointed.
Gang-hyun had collapsed soaked in blood, probably due to the risk of Berserker Soul.
"Did, did you come to save me?"
"No. I came to kill you."
"What? That's nonsense...!"
"My acting is pretty good right? But how many women are in the one-room? If you answer properly I'll kill you comfortably."
"There are none."
"...What?"
What nonsense is this.
I thought I heard women's voices just the day before yesterday?
"Women are useless anyway, hit, hihik! When was the last time we used them as bait! That's their use!"
"You crazy bastard. Then die."
I struck his jaw with my club first.
He fell flat on his back.
Next I struck his chest and caved it in.
I swung big between his legs and crushed them, then half-crushed his head and left him.
"Farewell. Be born good in your next life."
"Keu, kek, you filthy...!"
Moon Gang-hyun died too.
I chose a skill as the reward. Berserker Soul, an Authority.
[Berserker Soul]
Type: Authority
Description: If conditions are met, all stats temporarily double every 2 minutes.
"Ah, madness. My old friend. -Guts Berserker"
'What are the conditions for this? It's blurry as if deactivated?'
Only one thing was left.
Shall I go do some overtime work?
I headed to the one-room while smirking.
