The Genius Assassin Who Takes it All - Chapter 11
Episode 11: Overpower (4)
* * *
Robbery of vision directly linked to kidnapping.
Add to that the shallow chaos that distorts your sense of direction and vision.
From the added lateral movement to the bleeding stab for a sure surprise attack.
It is a composition created by Kanghu as a ‘combo’. It was also the picture I thought about as I walked to the entrance.
Actually, I was wondering when I would have the chance to use this combo.
The request is over.
Once you return and meet Yerin Lee, you will be given a job to go to the dungeon.
However, a dispute arose in an unexpected place. It was because of Jo Youngjae.
In a short moment, a perfect plan for each other’s life was exchanged between Kang-hoo and Jo Young-jae.
Of course, it was Jo Youngjae who attacked first.
Kang Hu only fought back in a response that was close to self-defense.
However, the only difference was that Kang-hu avoided Jo Young-jae’s aim and Jo Young-jae did not.
“Cough…”
Jo Young-jae was kneeling in front of Kang-hu, blood pouring out.
Each of the deep stab wounds to the neck, side, and chest were irreversible fatal wounds.
Actually, I had no intention of seeing blood with Jo Young-jae. Because I never got what I wanted to do in the first place.
Of course, I thought that Jo Young-jae could become Jang Si-hwan’s lackey in the future.
This is because in the original work, the Osan area is where Jang Si-hwan enters the subjugation of forces during this period.
Since this was the area most infested with criminal organizations, the external justification for subjugation was sufficient.
Then, these gangs who are good at cleaning up someone’s back will naturally line up.
Although that was expected, there was still no reason to target Jo Young-jae first.
However, as soon as Jo Young-jae’s face met, he frowned with all his might and swung his great sword straight at him.
He was a cowardly first mover.
Of course, Kang-hu’s belief was that one should use any means necessary to kill someone.
That’s when there is some kind of grudge or purpose that requires killing each other – such as a murder request.
Today, there was no such connection between Jo Youngjae and himself. However, he suddenly stabbed me with a large sword.
If Kanghu’s leaping skill had been a skill that did not allow him to move more than 10m, his head would have been blown off and he would have died long ago.
However, in conjunction with Jo Young-jae’s slightly short ‘rush’ distance, he narrowly avoided the attack by leaping backwards.
Kang-hoo, who immediately took the turn, immediately connected with a forward leap in an awakened state and slit Jo Young-jae’s throat.
‘The fact that he showed his evil spirit first gave me a good opportunity to exploit the gap.’
Kang-hu commented so self-assessed.
Youngjae Jo is a berserker.
Since this is a class that gets stronger the more time you give it, we had to avoid long-term battles at all costs.
However, Cho Young-jae’s aggressiveness created an opportunity, and Kang-hu never missed that one moment.
“Brother tongue…”
“Ugh! “Brother Youngjae is dead!”
“You also signed a contract with the Constellation…”
Osan Su-ho’s gang, who witnessed the battle that ended in Kang-hu’s one-sided victory, were all mesmerized.
To a third party, he may have been a street leader, but to them, Jo Young-jae was a ‘god’.
This is because he has worn as many as three expensive grade 6 items and has completed the constellation contract at level 65.
Such a god lost his life to the man he thought of as the most insignificant. It was a complete defeat without a doubt.
Ganghu said, taking out a solarium from his inner pocket.
“I’ll give you just 5 seconds, so make your own choice. “I won’t force you, but the result will be the same.”
Tsueup. Tsueueu-.
Kanghu eagerly sucked the juice.
The attack on Cho Young-jae was at one tempo, but my head was throbbing, perhaps because there were multiple combos at once.
When Kang-hoo glanced back, every single one of them took a step back.
A world where death is no longer special. Perhaps that’s why Kang Hu also showed no change in his emotions.
I killed the guy who tried to kill me and that was the end of it. There was no idiot-like emotion wondering why he was killed.
“two.”
“Ugh!”
As soon as Kang Hu could count the two, they all started running for 36 steps.
The guy running furthest behind was the guy with the pomade perm who had lost his right hand to Kang Hoo in the first match.

“This is Jeong Seon-gyu.”
– Yes, Seongyu. Has the request been completed?
“yes. “It has been recovered.”
-What about Kim Mok-hyeon?
“I will contact you as soon as I arrive at Daejeon Station.”
Kang-hoo, who came out of the dungeon, ended his short phone call with Ye-rin Lee.
The reason she was not told about Kim Mok-hyeon’s life or death is because that information also has value.
Information is not free. And a thirsty person digs a well.
【Blood Devourer】
【Neutral tendency constellation. The more stamina you lose, the more likely you are to become immune to mental attacks.】
The constellation ability that was stolen from Jo Young-jae was not intentional, but it was the ability that Kang-hu wanted the most.
Assuming they are the ‘enemy’, the most difficult of all hunters is the one who can control their minds.
What if you could casually make someone commit suicide or order them to kill a colleague?
A ‘spirit world’ hunter with considerable skills can easily make this tragedy a reality.
The increased possibility of resistance had great combat significance.
Anyway, I got three items from Youngjae Jo.
【Prelude to Madness – Gloves】
【Grade: 6th grade】
【Stamina +25】
【Wizard Hunter – Anklet】
【Grade: 6】
【Anti-Demon +25】
【Shoes of Pursuit】
【Grade: 6th grade】
【Dexterity +25 】
【Movement speed increases by 25% when chasing a designated target.】
All three are valuable items.
In particular, the mage hunter anklet is really rare, and the anti-demon option is very difficult to obtain.
So, usually anti-demon related items were always given one grade higher.
If sold on the market, it will be treated with the same value as other grade 5 items.
10 minutes later.
“It would be nice here.”
I came to the area west of Osan Station, slightly away from the abandoned ruins dungeon.
In fact, it is a place with nothing special, but there is something to see today, so I naturally headed there.
– Kill all the bastards!
– Bastards will kill you even if you surrender!
The criminal organizations ‘Pyeongjeong’ and ‘Bastard’, who dreamed of advancing into the Osan Station area, were waging an all-out war.
This is because the dungeon ‘Golden Goblin’s Mine’ located on the west side of the station is a valuable dungeon.
Because it is a closed type, it is possible to control power, and because it is a reset type, the faster the attack, the faster the internal rotation.
In particular, thanks to the ability to produce high-level magic stones, he was able to make hundreds of millions of won in net profit every day just by sticking to a straw.
There is no better place than here to use as a source of operating funds for an organization.
At least that was the case in Osan.
Click. Chi profit.
Kanghu drank a can of coffee.
Watching the bloody battlefield with a sip of coffee from a hill overlooking the sky below…
It felt like watching a movie.
With the setting sun as the background, the black shadows of the two organizations intertwine and ravage each other.
The blood cannot be seen because it is obscured by the setting sun, but one can read death in the painful struggle that swirls in the air.
“······.”
Kang-hu felt the presence of someone approaching where he was.
This is the power of mana tracking abilities.
If the nearby opponent is a mana-based hunter, they will never be able to escape this detection.
Of course, if Ganghu decides to deceive like he did when he killed the guard who was the original owner of this ability, he will be punished… As he
slowly turned his head, a woman holding a two-handed greatsword as tall as himself was walking towards him.
He is biting down on a cheap lollipop as hard as he can, with the intention of turning his tongue blue.
Long flowing hair, unbalanced hooded zip-up jacket and training pants.
Rather than being called a combat uniform, he was wearing something that would be perfect for going out for a walk around the neighborhood.
She spoke first.
“It’s a famous place, right?”
Ganghu nodded.
This is because although the movement path on the battlefield is long, the physical straight-line distance is short.
She continued.
“There is no better place to watch children dying than here. Of course, it’s also perfect for dying while looking at it.”
She naturally sits next to Kang-hu.
It was a close seat, about two spans away.
Since there was nothing else to say at first meeting, Ganghu remained silent.
Unfortunately, the talent for speaking kindly was not possessed by Shin Kang-hoo in the original.
Rather, it is closer to deficiency.
However, she did not show any signs of discomfort and instead asked Kang-hu strongly.
In the first place, it felt like Kang-hoo was next to me while I was talking to myself rather than hoping to hear an answer.
“Are you a mercenary?”
Ganghu nodded.
“I’m a mercenary too. Do you know of any good mercenary groups? “A place with good pay and low difficulty level?”
You want to get paid more, but you want to do an easy job?
His attitude as a mercenary was poor.
“I think the premise is wrong.”
“Tsk! I’m the type of person who can’t stand contradictory words. It’s a big hit! It’s a big hit! “You caught it right!”
“······.”
Only then did Kang-hu realize that she had thrown a bait to induce a reaction from him.
It was a good attempt.
Because I got it right.
“This is Sangmi Yoon. I won’t ask your name. “I don’t think they’ll tell you.”
“Jeong Seon-gyu.”
“It’s an alias, right?”
“huh.”
“I also have a pseudonym.”
Ganghu turned his gaze that had met hers back to the battlefield. Because it’s not new to give your full name under a pseudonym.
How many mercenaries use their own names? Few.
In such a case, the only case is when the real name has already become widely known and the pseudonym itself has become meaningless.
Or maybe he was wanted.
“If you go to Daejeon Station, there will be a lot of work. “Eclipse is drawing aggro from all directions.”
“Eclipse. Five mercenaries I knew were killed by them. There are quite a few missing people. “I would have probably gone to Cheongmyeong concentration camp…”
Yoon Sang-mi’s words reminded Kang-hu of a name he had completely forgotten and he frowned.
Even if you try to ignore the memories, your body still remembers the torture and abuse you received there.
That moment.
I started to have a strong headache along with the feeling that my whole body was becoming dry.
It is learned pain.
In order to mine magic stones, I was forced to consume extreme amounts of mana, and I suffered from mana hypersensitivity from time to time.
“Just collecting the bounty on an executive level would be perfect for retiring for a few years and living leisurely.”
“An executive like Kang Dong-hyun?”
