The Genius Assassin Who Takes it All Chapter 146

Episode 146: Abyss (1)

* * *

A rainy morning.

Incheon Airport, which is always crowded, was crowded with passengers preparing for departure and arrival in the morning.

With the recent outbreak of the White War, the demand for foreign mercenaries is rapidly increasing.

So, quite a few mercenaries from China, Russia, and Mongolia were also entering the country.

If they plan domestic terrorism or attack civilians, entry into the country will be strictly controlled.

Since they were war mercenaries who only participated in wars between pharmaceutical companies, their entry into the country was not restricted.

Of course, they made sure to check and search all non-Korean passengers.

At the very least, it was impossible to hide one’s name and identity or hide one’s activity details.

From the beginning, foreign mercenaries wanted to enter the country confidently and did not want to use dangerous means such as smuggling.

Anyway, there was a man coming out through the crowd.

Despite the lack of sunlight, the look of him wearing sunglasses was full of bravado.

“What a fucking weather.”

The man frowned.

And I kept looking around. This is because the person who was supposed to come out to meet him has not yet been seen.

Right then.

“uh! here! Sohyuk, here!”

Another man recognized him and came running towards him, waving his hands vigorously.

Then the man’s frowning expression cleared up.

“Brother Inho. long time no see.”

“Yes, Sohyuk. “I thought we would continue to promote in China, but I was surprised to suddenly have domestic schedules.”

“What’s there to be surprised about?”

“You said you didn’t want to do domestic activities. That’s why the captain sent you to China.”

“There’s a reason why you can’t stay calm.”

Kim In-ho, the man who came to greet the man named So-hyuk, nodded slightly in response to the man’s answer.

However, rather than completely accepting it, it seemed like some doubts remained.

Inho Kim.

He was a member of the criminal organization ‘Sun’, which dominated the Jeonju area.

He was also a confidant of Captain Kang Tae-yang, Kang Dong-hyun’s half-brother, and was good at coordination due to his easy-going personality.

That’s why I came out today to ‘pick up’ my younger brother, who is famous for his foul temper.

“But you and your sister had a really bad relationship, right? “I believe they split up when your sister went to Eclipse and you came to the sun.”

Kim In-ho took his luck cautiously.

It was like that. The identity of this man was Cha So-hee’s older brother, Cha So-hyuk.

As Kim In-ho said, we chose different activity organizations because our thoughts and beliefs were different.

The problem is that the captains of Eclipse and Taeyang were Kang Dong-hyeon and Kang Taeyang, respectively.

It is said that they were hostile and growled at each other like enemies. The relationship between the two was not even expressed in words that were bad.

According to a rumor going around, they both thought it was the person who killed their biological mother.

They are looking at each other as enemies who killed their mother and as adulterous children who have betrayed the law of heaven.

So it was no wonder that my eyes rolled back.

And the enemy-like relationship between the two also applied to their subordinates.

Cha So-hyuk nodded.

“that’s right. It’s true that we split up. But… “Even if I kill Sohee, I kill her as her older brother. I can’t have someone else kill her.”

“….”

“I will definitely kill that bastard after Shin Kang. That’s my brother’s duty. “I will grind up his bones and blood and offer them to Sohee’s memory.”

Crackling.

Cha So-hyuk gritted his teeth.

The purpose of his entry was clear from the beginning.

Ganghu’s death.

I had no intention of leaving the country until I achieved this goal. We will not choose any means or methods.

At noon.

He rejected Min Soo-hyun’s willingness to meet Kang-hu himself.

Lee Hyun-seok came out in person and greeted Kang-hoo at the meeting place.

Since security is my life, I changed the meeting place four times during the call.

In the process, the plan was to see if Kang-hu was followed, but fortunately, there was no follow-up.

The place where I met Lee Hyun-seok was inside a tourist hotel run by Eun-yeon himself.

More than 90% of the customers were hunters belonging to the Abyss, and there were many benefits, so it was virtually possible to use it for free.

The place we followed Lee Hyun-seok to was the penthouse in the hotel.

Only after going inside and fully operating the facility to activate the soundproofing treatment.

Lee Hyun-seok opened his tightly closed mouth. He took care of security.

“This time, I saw news related to Kang Dong-hyun. It was really… amazing. “I got to see it again.”

“If I want to live, I have no choice but to fight.”

“You caught two clever female investigators at Eclipse who still knew how to use their heads.”

“I don’t know if there’s anything particularly clever about it. Anyway, I think we achieved a reasonable result.”

Ganghu said calmly.

Cha So-hee was overly ambitious, and Jin Hyo-young was overconfident about her looks and skills. Both had flaws.

“Soohyun somehow stopped me from coming to say thank you. “I feel like if I’m rude for no reason, the meaning of the place will fade.”

“It looks like you have a tomboy nephew. “Actually, the first meeting itself was not ordinary.”

I recalled the moment when Kang-hoo went to save Min Soo-hyun.

It was Min Soo-hyun who entered the Liberation Zone of Gimcheon alone to steal items belonging to Shin Jun-ho, the leader of the Black Bone Corps.

Although I haven’t done the same ‘foolish thing’ since. Thinking back at the time, he was truly a reckless troublemaker.

“Since then, I have been directly supervising him and suppressing his curiosity.”

“You’ve been through a lot.”

Even though he said this, Kang-hu could feel Lee Hyun-seok’s love for his nephew contained in the words.

It almost felt like he was more like a father than an uncle. Is it like watching your daughter fool?

Anyway, as he started talking like that, Kang-hoo naturally performed a constellation scan on Lee Hyun-seok.

It was exactly the same as the setting implemented in the original work. If so, his current level would be around 620.

This is because when Lee Hyun-seok died due to Moon Yoo-seok’s betrayal, his level was exactly 620.

“If there is anything you want from me, you can feel free to tell me. “It is not too much for me to repay the benefactor who saved Soohyun.”

It was a bit scary to see Lee Hyun-seok talking about the compensation in broad terms without deciding on the scope.

It may not be 100% goodwill, but it may be a test to understand Kang-hu’s personality and thoughts.

But Kanghu twisted his thoughts one more time. There was a simpler yet more meaningful option.

“I would like to hear about what you can do in return. “I hope you feel free to tell me.”

The ball was thrown away.

That’s still the case.

I didn’t think it really mattered what direction the conversation was taking.

One way or another, it doesn’t change the fact that Kang-hoo saved Lee Hyun-seok’s favorite nephew.

It was right that he was in control of the relationship until the compensation was finalized.

Did you expect an answer?

Or was he preparing to give the same answer no matter what answer he got?

Lee Hyun-seok immediately answered Kang-hoo’s words without hesitation.

“I will give you free access to five dungeons owned by the Abyss. “I give permission.”

Dungeons owned by the Abyss are managed by the Abyss and are completely uninfluenced by the Hunter Public Security Agency.

In other words, as Lee Hyun-seok said, he had full authority. If he says he guarantees it, it is completely guaranteed.

“Can you pass on the dungeon information so I can choose five locations?”

“We can guide you with all information below level 2. That way, it will be easier to select a dungeon.”

Lee Hyun-seok readily agreed to Kang-hu’s request. It is right to protect level 1 and 2 information because it is information related to internal core strategies and secret routes.

This means that it is not information that you should be upset about if it is not shared with you. This is a confidential area.

Lee Hyun-seok seemed to think that the compensation was not enough, so he stretched out his index finger and added.

“one more. We can set up a support team for you. “Experience monopoly is also guaranteed.”

“It looks like you have a team that helps with professional training.”

“you’re right. “This is the kind of team that gives wings to promising players whose growth rate is lacking.”

Warlord Abyss was famous for running various elite organizations.

If I remember correctly, the name of the team supporting the training is ‘Cheongho University’.

A team made up of magic bullet snipers is called the ‘Red Tigers’, and a team made up of assassins is called the ‘Black Tigers’.

They each go through rigorous training to become elites and become Lee Hyun-seok’s strong core force.

“Five places….”

“Do you think it’s not enough?”

“no. I think we need to think about it carefully. Thank you for your consideration.”

Kang Hu politely greeted me.

This was enough.

It was a consideration that felt even more special considering how closed the organization called Abyss was.

In the first place, outsiders can never enter a dungeon owned by the Abyss. They didn’t even ask for mercenaries.

It was a place where there was a lot of information that was hidden because all strategies were carried out internally within the organization.

In that abyss, he gave up five dungeons for Ganghu.

It was unusual to attach a support team there and offer to help with smooth experience farming.

“In addition, we can help you sell difficult items or purchase useful items.”

“Can I ask you one question? “I hope you can answer honestly.”

“Please tell me.”

“You are being considerate of me in a dungeon that is rarely open to outsiders. “Do you believe me?”

“Rather than trusting Shin Kang-hoo, I trust the situation. “It wasn’t a lie that you saved Soohyun, right?”

“Yes.”

“Because that situation is true, I also express my gratitude with a sincere heart. “If such a situation arises where the past is denied, I will also deny Kang-hoo.”

“That’s a correct answer to a question.”

“Let’s answer the question straight to the right. haha.”

In short, it means that you react differently depending on whether you trust yourself or not.

It was also an answer that fit well with Lee Hyun-seok’s personality, which clearly has a silver lining.

Anyway, I was promised the opportunity to conquer five dungeons that could be used as a catalyst for growth in Korea.

Most of the dungeons owned by Abyss are valuable.

What makes Ganghu particularly attractive is that there are quite a few dungeons with a large number of middle bosses and main bosses.

If you can list those places and add them to your strategy list, it will be possible to acquire a large amount of skills.

The conversation stopped for a moment.

Lee Hyun-seok seemed to have other thoughts and asked Kang-hu a question that carefully changed the subject.

It was a question that struck me deeper than I thought.

“By any chance… Mr. Kanghu, what do you think about the Jeonghwa Guild? “I want to hear your story.”

It was a question that was too meaningful and heavy for the listener to answer comfortably.
