I Stole the Number One Ranker’s Soul - Chapter 72
Episode 073
Moreover, if the guild member whom I thought of as my colleague was involved in the incident, blood would have come to my head as soon as I came out.
If Yoo Eundam had been absent for that long, some of his associates might have been suspicious and tried to report or search for him.
However, the story that he did not do so means that, as Yoo Eun-dam said, it is highly likely that everyone around him condoned Yoo Eun-dam’s kidnapping.
It seems that even Yoo Eun-dam could not have predicted a situation in which the media would be completely manipulated in this way.
Honestly, I was really frustrated too.
It’s much simpler to just kill a few dungeon bosses and it’s over. How can you stop this?
No wait.
When I think about it, there is no reason to be treated so one-sidedly.
I have it too.
A means to fight against that unidentified enemy who only lies.
A camera that captures the truth.
Didn’t he deliberately follow the camera man for a long time to do that?
I was so focused on catching Vargis that I completely forgot about this camera in my inventory.
“camera! “There is a camera.”
“ah.”
“The camera that captured the truth.”
Although he was intrigued for a moment, Eundam Yoo looked skeptical again.
“Will that work? Even if you report it to the media…”
I’m worried about that too.
In the worst case scenario, the media could swallow this video and then edit it arbitrarily and broadcast it.
Still, I had no choice but to place my hopes on this video.
“But first, let’s watch the video and think about it. Would you like to watch it together?”
Perhaps there may be more useful content included.
When I suggested it, Eundam Yoo cautiously approached and stood next to me.
And the moment he played the video, he was shocked.
“Hyung Jihan? Why is Seo Seo-han Hunter…”
Yoo Eun-dam, who was feeling betrayed, even his lips trembled and didn’t know what to do.
“I’m not a hunter.”
I quickly told him the truth before he got any more excited.
But Yoo Eundam looked like he couldn’t believe it.
I paused the video and zoomed in on Seo Ji-han’s fake scythe.
“The weapons are different. It’s a little dark green here, right? This black energy spreading sideways is not the unique darkness of a hunter, but poison. If you look closely, the shape is slightly different. The voice wasn’t that of Seojihan Hunter either. “It would have been clearer if I had taken off the mask.”
Since the real Reaper’s Scythe was safely sleeping in my inventory, I knew right away that the scythe was fake, but I don’t know what Yu Eundam would be like.
Fortunately, Yoo Eundam calmed down his excitement little by little and looked at the screen closely.
What should I do?
On screen, he really does look like Seo Ji-han.
Fortunately, Eundam Yu soon nodded slowly.
“okay. “It’s completely different.”
“Yes?”
I was relieved by his reaction and continued playing the video.
There was no particular content.
From the moment I met Hunter Mirae Noh and turned on the camera, everything I heard was something I knew.
“Is the fact that the screen went black in the middle and then they disappeared was the skill of that person named Ban Seo-jin?”
It’s about Hunter Kim Young-gil’s grudge.
Oh, I should tell you this too.
I suddenly feel guilty.
Should I tell you that I have the vengeful spirit of the hunter who died unjustly of yours?
To do that, I would have to explain too many things.
Would it be okay to reveal that much information to Yoo Eundam?
As if reading my thoughts, Seo Ji-han reached out his hand and made a motion that seemed to squeeze my lips.
When I saw that solemn face, I made up my mind.
okay. Let’s not talk.
It’s a too big card.
In the worst case, Yoo Eundam might sell me out the day after he reveals information about me to his enemies. Or you could try to use it.
“That’s fine with me too. I don’t know. me too.”
“okay.”
Fortunately, Yu Eun-dam didn’t look suspicious.
There is so much to think about right now that I may not have the energy to do so.
Anyway, it was fortunate for me.
But I still feel very uncomfortable not telling everything.
I decided to tell him something he would know anyway.
“Not long ago, there was news on the news that Hunter Seo Ji-han murdered Hunter Kim Young-gil, but it wasn’t the real Hunter Seo Ji-han, but this guy.”
“yes?”
Yoo Eun-dam suddenly looked down at me in shock, as if wondering what I was talking about.
“This guy dressed up as Hunter Seo Ji-han is killing people and framing them as if Hunter Seo Ji-han did it…”
That’s not true, Hunter Kim Young-gil was murdered?”
“yes. “Hunter Kim Yeong-gil of the Amhyeon Guild production department.”
Yu Eundam must have been so shocked that he stood speechless for a moment.
And then he slowly tilted his head.
“I don’t understand.”
“yes?”
“There is no reason to kill Hunter Kim Young-gil.”
“What do you mean….”
“We are the same kind.”
Eundam Yoo looked straight down at me and spoke clearly again.
“So, they are the same as those guys in the video. This person was really arrogant and unlucky, so he always had a lot of enemies. But strictly speaking, he was so mean and evil that if he killed someone else, he would kill him. I didn’t think he would suffer like this.”
“hmm.”
That’s a very unexpected statement.
I didn’t know how to react, so I just nodded with an ambiguous look on my face.
“Actually, I thought that Hunter Kim Young-gil might be among those behind my kidnapping. But he died?”
“yes.”
“Well, I’m the type of person who never listens to what other people say. “He often attacked me, calling me a child.”
“I guess you had a very flirtatious personality.”
“Kkojangkkojang? It’s not at that level. The secretary in charge changed once a week, but everyone said that I was a human being. When I leave the company, I always cry. There were many people who attempted suicide after being in charge of him. “This boss is like something out of a nightmare.”
Wow, I see.
Attempting suicide…
How much can you torture people?
I can feel the sympathy and remorse I have for Hunter Kim Young-gil disappearing like the melting snow.
The fact that Kim Yeong-gil’s thoughts took revenge directly may have been an expression of his nasty personality.
I feel like I have defeated evil with evil.
Anyway, it doesn’t matter because there is no harm to me.
You said the quest reward was Kim Yeong-gil Hunter’s Thought Form, right?
Thanks to Yoo Eundam telling me about his personality, I was able to manipulate him with greater ease.
In fact, I still felt very slightly guilty about exploiting the soul of the dead.
“If he had incurred that much resentment, someone might have instigated him to kill him. Um, but Yoo Eun-dam would know if he saw the news, it felt like he chose an important person to kill in order to make Hunter Seo Ji-han the culprit, rather than necessarily killing Hunter Kim Young-gil.”
Eundam Yoo nodded, as if somewhat convinced by my words.
“Uhm, well. Hunter Kim Young-gil is suitable. He has a very bad personality and has no friends, so even if he dies, there will be no one to investigate the case in depth. “He was also an important person as he supplied a lot of items to the domestic consumer item market.”
Eundam Yoo, who was saying that, suddenly smiled brightly and nodded with satisfaction.
“This is the first good news I’ve learned since escaping.”
Seeing Eun-dam Yoo speaking with a very carefree expression, I can see what his relationship with Hunter Young-gil Kim was like on a regular basis.
I too am an imaginative person.
In my life so far, I have seen a few people of that type.
So, I did not want to criticize Eundam Yoo, who called it ‘good news’ after hearing about someone else’s death.
“But you’re saying Hunter Seojihan was also targeted by them?”
I nodded, but Eundam Yoo was lost in thought, as if it wasn’t a question he particularly wanted an answer to.
Then he looked at me and asked a question.
“Where is Hunter Seo Seo-han now?”
“yes?”
Why are you asking me that?
For a moment, I was so surprised that my back stood on end.
I awkwardly avoided eye contact.
“Me too…”
“You don’t know?”
“yes.”
Eundam Yoo, who was lost in thought again, said, “Hmm,” and suddenly opened his mouth.
“Could it be that they have already harmed you?”
“well. Well, well. Do not know. I see. “Yes.”
Meanwhile, Seo Ji-han was looking at me with his arms crossed and an amused expression on his face.
I desperately avoided Eundam Yoo’s eyes and pretended to be doing something else.
“It seems like framing him for murder was a ploy to find Hunter. Because if you do this, you can be put on a wanted list. If they show up, just arrest them and lock them up.”
“hmm.”
“If it were his personality, he would have already come out because he felt unfair.”
Seo Ji-han interjected with Yoo Eun-dam’s words with a slightly dissatisfied expression.
– Doesn’t he think of me as too thoughtless?
I don’t know.
Because I don’t know what the relationship is between the two.
One thing is certain: it seems much closer than what Seo Ji-han briefly mentioned before.
I was looking around for no reason and asked a question as if I was wondering.
“Are you close with Hunter Seo Ji-han?”
“yes?”
“I feel like calling you brother.”
“We’ve been dating for quite some time since we met during the expedition to Silagis. Besides, I was very young at the time, so I asked my older brother for a lot of advice. But what about that one?”
“yes?”
“What is your relationship with Jihan?”
“yes? “There is no relationship at all.”
good.
I barely stuttered.
The question came so suddenly that I almost ended up saying everything.
I heard Seo Ji-han patting my shoulder with a feelingless arm and saying, ‘Breathe, breathe.’
“is it so? It seems like you know a lot about things like that. How did you know that the scythe wasn’t Jihan’s? “It’s a trait you would never know unless you met him in person and went to battle with him.”
Cold sweat runs down my spine.
What excuse can I make?
I can’t think of anything suitable.
Pan? Would you say you were a fan? Since you’re a fan, you know everything?
no. It’s also so strange.
What kind of fan are you when you don’t even know Seo Ji-han’s birthday?
“Uh…”
“Are you my lover?”
