The Genius Assassin Who Takes it All Chapter 32

Episode 32: The Great Beheading (1)

* * *

The settlement was over in an instant.

The amount of money that Ye-rin Lee could make was much larger than Kang-hu thought.

So, it took less than 5 minutes to receive the request fee plus the item sale price.

Balance 4.9 billion won.

At first glance, it may seem like a lot of money, but the reality is different.

This is because money that will disappear if you buy 4 grade 4 items, and money that cannot be purchased for grade 3 items.

It is not for nothing that the world of hunters is called ‘the world they live in’.

As you move up from the middle to the top, the economic concepts that make up it change to the extent of a cataclysm.

Top hunters like Jang Si-hwan have no interest in items below grade 4 even if they are obtained from dungeons.

It is called ‘japtem’. It is considered useless.

“Hey, this is really…”

Even though she had admired it several times before, Ye-rin Lee was still surprised that she had Tae-soo Gong’s left arm.

She fought against Gong Tae-soo at a fierce level, but she could not unilaterally damage his body like this.

It was not a prediction, it was reality. This is because being a level 200 hunter is not that easy.

This is Lee Ye-rin, who scanned Kang-hoo’s level when they first met.

Therefore, she predicted that no matter how high Kanghu’s level was, it would be difficult to exceed 70.

A level 70 hunter injures a hunter over three times that level?

It’s impossible.

Of course, the things Kang-hu had done so far were not new as they were a series of things that were thought to be impossible.

‘I think the texture of the original is changing little by little.’

Meanwhile, Kang-hoo thought as he looked at Lee Ye-rin, who was giving him a generous, sparkling look.

In fact, in the original work, the relationship between Lee Ye-rin and Shin Kang-hu was not particularly close or strong.

It is true that she will grow into a capable person who will compete with the thirteen stars in the future.

However, there was not much interaction with Shin Kang-hoo. Just being aware of each other’s existence and supporting each other invisibly.

But now, she is receiving a lot of interest from Lee Ye-rin, to the point where she is actively suggesting recruitment.

‘The original mainstream story is about Jang Si-hwan. Even if you touch the side branches moderately, there will be no problem.’

Kanghu thought so.

The original work, which was written strictly around the main character, Jang Si-hwan, simply composed the stories of the surrounding characters.

As for the story related to Tae-su Gong, what I heard as passing news is all that is mentioned in the original work.

【Jang Si-hwan laughed after seeing the news.

“Ulsan has been like that from the beginning. So why do you mess with a crazy guy like Gong Tae-su and suffer for it?”

Since the accident did not occur in Seoul anyway, the news article quickly disappeared from my mind like volatile alcohol.】

This is the content.

Perhaps, this time too, Jang Si-hwan heard a series of news that happened in Ulsan through the news.

However, I am probably reciting something a little different.

Still, it didn’t seem like he would be deeply interested.

‘Let’s be careful and only touch the mainstream. ‘The later we receive the Purification Guild’s attention, the better.’

When I thought about it like that.

Yerin Lee presented a new request proposal.

I felt like the status of the request had changed since the edges were decorated with gold rims.

She cried out first.

“You like to get straight to the point, right?”

“of course.”

“It’s an assassination request. The target’s name is Jo Gu-bin. He’s a murderer. “He is also a child kidnapper and murderer.”

“….”

Although I do not have grandiose beliefs about achieving justice.

At least Kang-hu had ideas about the lines that should not be crossed as a human being. That’s the bare minimum.

But child kidnapping isn’t enough, it’s murder. I frowned because the combination of words felt terrible.

“The person who gave the request is the victim’s father. What she wants is revenge for her daughter and herself. “Jo Gu-bin’s death.”

“How do you know the location?”

“What was finally confirmed was ground zero. “They say there are no records that came out after that.”

“You coward.”

Ganghu made a bitter expression.

In fact, many criminals live at Ground Zero.

Because it is such a dangerous place, even the Hunter Police Department is reluctant to go there to search. This is because there are too many variables.

“The reward for success is 1 billion won. “If my daughter’s belongings or even her body are recovered, there is an additional negotiable compensation.”

“What is the amount?”

“It will be at least 1 billion won. “The father’s earnest heart will be expressed more here.”

“Anything else?”

“There are conditions that must be met before compensation is paid. “I really want to see Jo Gu-bin die.”

“Like a video call?”

“Yes. “You want real-time video, not recorded video.”

“I think it depicts a father gritting his teeth and enduring each day to seek revenge for his daughter.”

“How can you imagine the pain? “It’s just heartbreaking.”

Yerin Lee’s eyes became red.

Kanghu also had more thoughts.

It felt like a righteous journey to slay the devil rather than simply condemning the evildoer.

‘If you chase Gubin Jo, you’ll naturally come across a picture where you can obtain Mad Solarchium.’

It was a car that also needed Mad Solarium anyway.

Since I had planned to visit Ground Zero at least once, I thought it would be okay to see everything I had to see and come back.

In addition, there was a place where it was vaguely expected where Jo Gu-bin might be hiding.

Wasn’t it the original author who designed the space called Ground Zero? Backtracking is not difficult.

* * *

Around that time.

“I had a bad dream.”

Jang Si-hwan woke up from a nightmare and drank a large glass of red wine.

The red wine I drank roughly flowed down the side of my mouth like blood, but I didn’t really care.

It was Jang Si-hwan, who had been having nightmares lately.

Even though you can’t see the person’s face, they keep coming to you and attacking you indiscriminately.

The scary thing was that the guy was so new and haunted that his movements were completely unpredictable.

When you thought it was in front, it was behind you, and when you thought it was below, it was above you. Does it feel like a ghost?

I turned on the TV.

Jang Si-hwan’s old habit is to delete all general channels and display only hunter-related channels.

Today, as always, I looked through hunter news in Korea and around the world. Updating information is essential.

At that time, there was a story that caught my interest among the domestic news, so I focused my attention.

It was about an incident in Ulsan targeting the Red Blood Organization and its leader, Gong Tae-su.

“I thought there might be a hunt that catches me at some point. “Did Gong Tae-soo aim for that again?”

The flow was as expected.

The story was that a large number of mercenaries who had been caught up in a plan designed by Prince Gong were massacred or taken prisoner.

However, one thing to note here is:

“Did Prince Gong lose his left arm?”

The news was that even Gong Tae-soo, who had set the plan, suffered great damage.

For a magician, it is very important to have both arms and hands that can be precisely controlled.

However, it is said that Prince Gong lost his left arm, which is known to be his main use. It’s a major accident.

Moreover, the identity of the hunter who cut off Tae-soo Gong’s left arm was not expected at all.

All I could do was secure the back view from an old CCTV video with a fairly low frame rate.

In this way, I could only check the back of the head, but I couldn’t figure out who it was.

“On top of the running guy, there was a flying guy, and there was a guy watching everything.”

Jang Si-hwan chuckled.

I don’t know what kind of guy he is, but he did an amazing job.

Who was the hunter who was able to cut off Tae-su Gong’s left arm in just two seconds and take it as a trophy?

Since the world is full of so many issues, it is easy to quickly forget some news.

This news made me want to pay close attention to the follow-up details. Because he seemed like an unusual guy.

Jang Si-hwan called right away.

Purification Guild’s Information Strategy Team.

It was an intelligence team with excellent collection capabilities that even utilized the Hunter Police Agency’s internal database.

They will meticulously find even the smallest bit of gossip and report it.

– Yes, please say so.

“Ulsan Gong Tae-su incident. “Collect all the news about the hunter who cut off his left arm and post it to me.”

– All right.

Instructions were given immediately.

Now, until the identity of that hunter is revealed, documents related to him will pile up on Jang Si-hwan’s desk.

* * *

Before looking for Jo Gu-bin, Kang-hu first stopped by Suwon Station.

This is because the dungeon needed to learn the Decapitation skill was owned by the Onnuri Guild.

The base is Suwon Station. So, I met Lee Ye-rin at Pyeongtaek Station and stopped by Suwon Station on the way up.

‘The atmosphere is different.’

Although it was not as bad as Seoul, security was quite stable in the Suwon Station area.

There was a festival going on in front of the station, and hunters from the Onnuri Guild were also conducting a campaign.

Suwon – Clean Hunter Campaign.

The name may be a bit grandiose, but it means creating a Suwon Station where hunters do not commit crimes.

The atmosphere at the station was definitely good, perhaps thanks to the influence of the Onnuri Guild, which holds a tight grip on the Suwon Station area.

In addition, we could see many small and medium-sized guilds freely recruiting guild members.

If it had been any other area, it would have been a scene of stabbings right away. This is because peaceful competition is not allowed.

Kanghu immediately went to Onnuri Guild’s exclusive building.

The 15-story building standing proudly in front of the station was the ‘Onnuri Building’.

After moving into the building.

“I would like to speak with the person in charge regarding dungeon license rental.”

I found the person in charge in the lobby.

I added some more information here.

“I have this much money, so I don’t need to go see the liver.”

I didn’t forget to verify how much money I had to prevent wasteful conversations.

Kang-hoo came with the intention of spending about 1 billion won, depending on the need.

Considering the privilege of being able to learn decapitation without penalty…

it is definitely not a waste of money.

Decapitation without penalty is the perfect ‘one hit’ skill.

This means that a kind of special move concept is possible.

“I will guide you. Come over here.”

A female guide began to politely guide Ganghu. There were probably instructions from the person in charge.

‘also.’

Perhaps because I verified the money I had in advance, I didn’t hear anything like I was renting something.

This is the power of money.

You can prevent yourself from jumping to conclusions just by looking at someone else’s appearance or blushing for no reason.

We arrived at the 13th floor by elevator.

I met the person in charge two floors below the top floor.

The person in charge sports impressive hair dyed red.

He greeted Ganghu with a very rough attitude, with his left hand shoved into his pants pocket.

“This is Han Seung-hyuk, the general manager of the Onnuri Guild Dungeon Management Team.”

It was hard for Han Seung-hyuk to give a formal greeting.

“Baltman Dungeon owned by the Onnuri Guild. I would like to rent a one-time strategy license. The suggested price is 1 billion. “We don’t negotiate twice.”

Kang-hu struck with the conditions he had immediately thought of. It was a unilateral proposal that blocked any room for negotiation.
