Episode 39
The hell of royalties was unfolding, filled with screams everywhere.
Executioner Woo Woo-wan placed the beheaded figure on the floor and looked at the scene of death he had created. Every time the scar etched into his face twitched, the villains standing around him trembled.
One of the villains asked Woo Woo-wan carefully.
“Hey boss. “What should we do next?”
“I’m resting here today. First, take everything you need. “I’m going to Cheonan tomorrow.”
“All right.”
The villain, whose expression changed brightly, left. Soon, as he watched the houses burning, the executioner had other thoughts.
“The league has left, but I’m not giving up.”
Ever since the league arrived in Korea, the executioner had hoped to join. I wanted to leave this country, a country that was unable to bind the awakened and was mercilessly branded as a villain if anything went wrong. And he wanted to gain more power in the world of leagues where players are treated according to their skills.
He longed for the power to roam the world at will and the power to kill anyone who bothered him at will.
The executioner exuded his murderous spirit as he touched the scar engraved from his right forehead to his left cheek.
“Berserker.”
This scar was caused by Berserker.
His goal was to kill the guy. When he said he would join the league, I was looking forward to a final decision, but he ended up destroying the league’s forces, so his joining was canceled.
Now, if you want to join the league, you have no choice but to go abroad. The plan to gain strength by joining the Korean League branch has already been shattered.
From start to finish, Berserker was of no help.
What moves the villain gang members is nothing more or less than anger.
The finale will be Cheonan, which becomes a sea of fire. After that, he plans to quietly escape to China and join the league.
Meanwhile, the villains who had finished plundering returned with joy. They are all mayflies that will soon die.
“Rest and then move on.”
It was then.
“You’re using your shallow head again, you idiot.”
“······.”
There was a middle-aged man approaching with a bayonet.
At first glance, he looks fine. He was even handsome. However, the expression of the executioner, who had seen the madness inside, hardened.
It was Berserker.
“Who are you?”
“Shoot it.”
After destroying and looting the villain response team, the villains became arrogant and pointed their guns.
Berserker moved before him.
bang!
As he threw away the great sword in his hand, a terrifying force storm arose and swept away the villains.
The villains within the range of the storm were torn apart without even being able to scream.
The villains gathered in that one move became meditative.
“Hee hee!”
“It’s a monster!”
“Who is it?”
The executioner’s next words lit the fire.
“Berserker.”
“How are you? Are you crazy?”
“Why did you come here?”
“My master has some business to do with you.”
“master? “When did you join the league?”
The executioner became uncomfortable when he heard the word “master.” That crazy guy who doesn’t know how scary the world is and runs wild as he pleases has a master?
Berserker picked up the great sword he had thrown and laughed.
“Do you think the League or something like that can become my master?”
“It’s still crazy. “I’m going to cut off your head today and go to the league.”
“I wish I could at least send a message. “Kkkkkk!”
* * *
Berserker and the Executioner faced off once three years ago.
The executioner invaded Berserker’s resting place while attacking the hunting team. The confrontation began when the Executioner killed the Hunters and tried to kill Berserker as well.
The result was Berserker’s victory. The executioner barely escaped with a serious wound on his face. Even Berserker, who was exhausted at the time, could not chase after him.
The crushing defeat was like hell. After that, the executioner waited for the day of revenge for three years and focused his entire life on becoming stronger.
I heard that Berserker killed Kim Young-hwan. However, he was confident that he would kill a superhuman who was old and unable to do anything.
I vowed that if I saw it again, I would tear Berserker to pieces, but the moment my swords met, I returned to reality.
“You’re weak.”
“Yes you bastard.”
The levels cannot even be compared.
When on earth did something like this happen? The executioner exerted all his strength, but it was not enough to even push him away.
Let’s go!
The executioner’s beheading sword, unable to withstand the force coming from the sword, bounced and was pushed back.
“Kill Berserker!”
The villains hesitated at the executioner’s shout. He acted as if he would remove his liver and gallbladder when he brought him benefits, but his status plummeted as he was pushed out by Berserker.
However, if the executioner dies, they are not safe either. The villains who realized this fact also did not sit still. Each person raised their gun and gave covering fire.
Doo doo doo doo!
“It’s at the level of an acupressure massage!”
The moment Berserker’s great sword cut through the air, a huge force erupted in the shape of a half moon. It cut all the villains in its path into two. Not only that, they even turned the wall of the building they were in into powder.
More than ten villains died in one move. Berserker did not stop there and jumped towards the villains who were firing guns.
“Hahaha!”
“Run away too!”
Indiscriminate slaughter occurred. The gun didn’t work. The villains within Berserker’s range were caught up in the force of the great sword and torn apart.
bang!
A villain threw a grenade, but even the flying debris could not penetrate the thick force.
A hail of bullets rained down on Berserker, who leisurely came forward amidst the explosion, but all of them bounced off, and all the villains that touched him died.
Beep!
Some crazy villain even fired an RPG bullet, but what I saw was a smiling figure, not torn pieces of rubble.
“This one was pretty exciting.”
What came back was death.
It doesn’t work no matter what weapon you use. How can you deal with such a monster? The villains lost their will to fight.
“Ugh! “Aaaah!”
“Run away too! “It’s a monster!”
“help me! Sal… kwaaak!”
Of the over fifty villains, less than ten succeeded in escaping.
Berserker and executioner stood face to face amid thick smoke and dismembered corpses.
“Now we can spend some private time alone. Have you regained some stamina? “I appreciate you not running away.”
“···Who sent you?”
The rumors about Berserker were not exaggerated. Rather, I felt diminished because my opponent was Kim Young-hwan. This guy is a superhuman who has reached level 8. You can never win.
Despair appeared on the executioner’s face.
“My master is the one I gave my all to.”
“Who the hell is your master?”
“Kkeuk don’t you know.”
A spark flew into the Executioner’s eyes as he looked at Berserker.
“Kaaaa! “Are you making fun of me now?”
“The weak are naturally made fun of. And the weak one is you. “I also suffer from my master all the time.”
“I have been training to kill you. But why is there such a difference?”
“This is the common repertoire of a talentless guy. “It’s no fun anymore.”
“I spent all my time trying to kill you!”
The executioner, crying, rushed forward. Berserker’s eyes were filled with madness as he saw the guy running at him like a moth to fire.
“You don’t know what’s really best. Death too. “Only after struggling with your whole body, looking at the sky above the sky, and being completely denied, can you finally say that you have given up your soul.”
“Kaaah!”
“Crying is also like a girl. “I’m sick of it now.”
The moment the executioner swung his sword, a blue force blade formed behind Berserker.
It was a gift called ‘Guillotine’ that was created by scraping up the force scattered in the air.
The world called him the executioner because he enjoyed cutting heads, but the reason was because he had the gift of a guillotine, which was able to dig into gaps.
It was a secret weapon that was kept hidden and not deployed even in the last confrontation.
The moment the blade approached secretly and was about to cut off the back of Berserker’s neck, a blue film appeared on the back of the Berserker’s neck.
“It tickles quite a bit.”
“you you! how······.”
“You just have to die twice.”
The executioner’s resistance was meaningless in the face of Berserker’s continued onslaught. The sword was broken, the left hand was cut off, and the entire right arm was blown off. Berserker, who was watching the guy collapse with no strength, blew off his head without a hint of loss.
It was the end of a large-scale villain who roamed around Chungcheong-do and Jeollabuk-do as if it were his territory.
“It’s at the level of a warm-up. “It’s a waste of gas money.”
Berserker, who was habitually trying to trample on the head, stopped. You must bring this to Junho Choi to complete the assigned mission.
It was only for a moment, but I almost made a big mistake. This is a guy who was already looking to kill everyone. In this situation, it was clear what would happen if an excuse was provided.
Before I knew it, the madness that had filled my eyes had disappeared without a trace, and cold sweat was streaming down my face.
“I almost forgot. “I almost died.”
It took a while for Berserker to shake off the goosebumps all over his body. Although I was covered in cold sweat, I repeatedly expressed relief, saying that the coolness had saved my life.
Then he took out the smartphone in his pocket and started taking pictures of the inside of the building.
* * *
The morning after Berserker was told to stop the executioner.
As soon as I got to work, I received a flood of messages from Berserker.
Berserker – It’s over.
Berserker-Executioner was caught and villains were also caught.
Berserker-[Attach photo][Attach photo][Attach photo][Attach photo][Attach photo][Attach photo][Attach photo][Attach photo][Attach photo][Attach photo] Berserker-The executioner’s head
is I will embalm it.
Berserker – Tell me if you need it.
“Have you already taken care of everything?”
When I told them to stop the executioner, he just killed them all.
Could it be that he ran with all his might as soon as he got the call?
It was so fast that you couldn’t believe it with your own eyes, and it was a bigger achievement than expected.
I never thought the situation would end without me even having to move.
I went to the director’s office with the news.
“Director.”
“Good morning, what happened early in the morning? You were supposed to leave Cheonan at 11, right?
“Berserker caught the executioner.”
“huh? ok? what?”
Jung Joo-ho buffered for a moment at my words.
Information about the executioner was delivered the evening before. It was late at night when we had a countermeasures meeting and delivered it to Berserker. And now, in the morning, the situation has ended.
“Does that mean that the Berserker caught the executioner and killed him?”
“They said they would cut off my head and embalm it.”
“Is this something that was supposed to be handled this quickly?”
The Berserker moved quickly. Even I was shocked.
“I’m sure it has been resolved well.”
“Yes, but…”
“Why are you doing that?”
“It has already been reported to the top. “If the executioner died, I think we should explain how it was handled.”
A look of embarrassment appeared on Jeong Joo-ho’s face. Executioner Gun said that other villain organizations were also involved, so he planned to report to the higher-ups and request reinforcements.
“Berserker’s identity may be revealed.”
“I think it will be 100% revealed. “There is no movement in the government organization, but the big man called the executioner is dead.”
At that moment, I remembered what the President said. I guess I can say I know it roughly, but I’m not sure how it will change when it turns out to be true.
First of all, looking at Jung Joo-ho’s reaction, I don’t think there will be a bad reaction.
“Let’s meet Berserker first.”
“I? why?”
“If Berserker is revealed, I have to manage it, but wouldn’t it be easier for you, director, to keep pace? Can I hand it over to the External Cooperation Management Bureau or the Anti-Hemp Water Defense Front Bureau?”
“Of course not.”
“Then let’s go see him.”
“Yes.”
At what I said, Jeong Joo-ho nodded with a shocked expression.
* * *
To meet Berserker, Joo-ho Jeong took Choi Jun-ho and three National Protection Bureau hunters and moved to the National Defense Bureau safe house on the outskirts of Gwangmyeong.
No matter how much the world has changed, Berserker still helps the country. The world is spinning strangely.
This unrealistic phenomenon became a reality upon seeing Berserker entering the safe house.
“This is Jeong Joo-ho, Director of the National Security Bureau. Nice to meet you.”
“This is Berserker Lee Gwang-jin. “It is an honor to meet the Director of the National Guard.”
First of all, my first impression was that he was a normal person. I could see his eyes blazing and a meaningful smile on his face, but it didn’t bother me too much.
“Thank you for catching the executioner. I am indebted to you.”
“hmm.”
I nod my head once and don’t say anything. If I had any ill feelings, I would have spilled something, but there is none. Is this really crazy?
Berserker held out the box in his hand when he came in.
“This is the executioner’s head that I have embalmed.”
When I opened it slightly, I saw the face of the executioner Woo Woo-wan.
“···Has confirmed. Thank you again.”
“I just did what was asked of me.”
He always spoke informally, but it actually felt more comfortable. What if Berserker is treated with respect? Then I would have been more suspicious.
This guy is crazy.
So I came here thinking of a crazy person, but I was confused because he wasn’t a crazy person.
I didn’t understand why this normal man was called Berserker.
“Due to this incident, it has been partially revealed that Berserker is collaborating with the country. “Is that okay?”
“It happened because I acted on my own, so I guess it’s something I have to deal with.”
What is this normal reaction? Don’t you usually have to make a fuss and say you don’t understand?
Jeong Joo-ho was caught in confusion.
The Berserker he knew was the craziest of all madmen.
But why does Berserker feel like a normal person?
Have you gone crazy? Is that why this crazy guy got a disease that made him look normal?
Jeong Joo-ho, who was confused, got the answer from somewhere nearby.
“Instead, the three kingdoms, including the National Defense Bureau, will no longer bother you.”
“That’s good news.”
“Shouldn’t you be a little more happy?”
“Haha! Good. Are you done?”
Yes, that’s Choi Jun-ho.
The person responsible for making his own hair thin and making Director Choi Myeong-guk bleed.
“Why are you doing that?”
“No, it’s nothing.”
When I looked at that guy, I felt like Berserker had a mild taste.
Since we are bombarded with capsaicin every day, the ordinary spicy taste is bound to feel mild.
‘I’m sorry for no reason.’
Jung Joo-ho apologized internally for naming Berserker as the craziest villain he knew.

Most hunters belonging to the Republic of Korea are hired for the purpose of maintaining public order.
Most of them are defensive in preparation for monster attacks, including the arrest of villains, but there are also teams for hunting.
However, because they could not keep up with the guilds in terms of treatment, their numbers were not large and their level was not high.
The government offered various benefits to have a skilled hunting team, but the treatment lagged behind in all aspects. As a result, there were very few hunting teams that achieved reliable results.
The only advantage is that priority is given to securing hunting grounds.
However, there were many monsters and many hunting grounds.
“The harmful level 7 black wyvern appears! I say it again. A harmful level 7 black wyvern has appeared.”
The hunting team was thrown into confusion by the sudden change.
This is where harmful level 5 monsters appear, but harmful level 7 monsters that should have been far away have appeared.
“Why does Black Wyvern appear here?”
“Team leader, what are you going to do? “There are only a few hunting teams around.”
“I recently heard that the ecosystem was changing, but I didn’t know it would be to this extent.”
In an urgent situation, the team leader made careful decisions.
If they called in nearby guild hunting teams to respond, they could have been wiped out.
“The surrounding hunting teams are advised to retreat, and we are also retreating. And I call the superman.”
“yes? However, the current superhumans have no proven ability to hunt.”
A young hunter from the same team said with a dissatisfied expression.
Although he was the youngest superhuman, he was a half-superhuman who had not even formed a hunting team yet.
They are asking to entrust their lives to someone who has not even been properly verified.
But the team leader shook his head resolutely.
“Getting to level 8 at that age means you have talent. Even if you have no hunting experience, you will be able to deal with level 7 harmful creatures.”
“But I understand.”
The young hunter, who was about to refute one more time, nodded.
“Contact us right away and we will divide into three parties to distract people. Move quickly!”
The initial call sent soon after was delivered to the Blue House.
