The Genius Assassin Who Takes it All - Chapter 179
Episode 179: God’s Wind (1)
Fumiya’s words were a proposal that found an appropriate compromise.
If the topic of the guild had been brought up in a way that would affect Ganghu’s entire activities, I wouldn’t have even worried about it.
However, he placed a condition of ‘limited overseas activities’.
In other words, I am asking what the Rikou Guild is like as a guild that I will only belong to when working abroad.
It’s an attractive offer.
‘Like most hunter novels, in my novel, skilled hunters are better off as freelancers.’
However, as Kang-hu thought, this world was created to give more preferential treatment to freelancers.
That gap is the ‘observer’.
A being who receives the same or better treatment as a guild member but has no obligations to the guild.
The position that the Spitfire Guild had previously proposed to Kanghu was observer.
It’s not that I don’t understand Fumiya’s desire to recruit talented people, but the alternative is too obvious.
Kanghu answered.
“it’s okay. If you want to propose cooperation, I think you can give us observer status.”
“As expected… I see.”
Fumiya nodded and smiled. The response was that it was the expected answer.
It seemed like he also wanted to make a point of not adding afterwords.
“If the Ricou Guild needs me and grants me observer status accordingly, I will consider it first.”
“All right. We are also having a hard time finding bleeding dealers these days. “I will definitely tell you.”
“thank you. Are there a small number of assassins or berserkers in the guild?”
“It’s a lot. We lost quite a lot during an all-out war with the Toushi Guild. “There is some imbalance.”
Fumiya gently pressed his forehead with the tip of his thumb. This is because the more I think about it, the more my head hurts.
The lack of assassins is also a problem that most guilds complain about.
Kang-hu was well aware that the value of his job was much more highly valued than in the past.
“Anyway, you gave me a grateful offer, but I ended up turning it down. “I hope you will understand.”
“you’re welcome. Proposals and rejections are everyday life for hunters. “It’s just a shame, there’s nothing else.”
Fumiya laughed.
He was a very impressive person with a warm smile. He certainly seemed like a good uncle to Ahn Young-ho.
In the future, if there are no other variables, Ricou Guild will continue to thrive like it is now.
There is an antagonistic force called the Toushi Guild, but it will instead be an opportunity to increase power through appropriate tension.

1 hour later.
Kang Hu was walking around downtown Osaka with Ahn Young-ho.
Under the pretext of a restaurant tour, Ahn Young-ho dragged Kang-hoo outside.
Anyway, the dungeon raid starts tomorrow and I had no intention of training separately today.
Kang-hoo pretended not to be able to overcome it and was following Ahn Young-ho as he looked at the scenery of downtown Osaka.
When I looked at Ahn Young-ho’s constellation information, I saw that he had grown considerably compared to when I first met him.
I couldn’t accurately estimate the level, but I thought it would be above 250 at best.
Kanghu asked.
“What level are you now?”
“Level? “It’s about 265, right?”
“How long has it been since you met me?”
“It must have been 137.”
“You posted quite a lot.”
“My uncle made me live in a dungeon so I wouldn’t have to go anywhere and get beaten up. “I really wanted to die…”
“Uncle, you should be thankful that you have a chance.”
“That is correct. You did a lot of good work. You really have to pay for the food. “There are so many people who helped me.”
It seemed like quite a bit of work had been done to give Ahn Young-ho experience points using expedient methods.
In fact, growth is only possible at this level. They must have received all-round support.
Ahn Young-ho’s strengths are his unrivaled skill and sense as a healer.
However, it has an extreme disadvantage: it has no combat ability. The killing ability was zero.
That’s why even the much lower level hunters couldn’t do anything when they first met Ganghu.
Ahn Young-ho had no choice but to run away. That is Ahn Young-ho’s weakness.
‘The constellation has also been added to provide experience points so that you can focus on growth, so there will be no worries in the future.’
Ahn Young-ho’s future also looks bright like Jeong Yu-ri or Park Dong-jae.
Now that we have prevented what could become a deep negative relationship with the Purification Guild, the Ricou Guild will probably continue to grow in the future.
Ahn Young-ho was also one of the very important cards for Ganghu.
First of all, since he is a competent healer, there is a high possibility that he will someday help in conquering difficult and difficult dungeons.
Fumiya, the deputy guild master of Rikou Guild, of course, has the power of his mother’s family with many names behind him.
There were many factors that would directly or indirectly expand Kanghu’s network. It was like that. It was well worth using.
“older brother.”
“huh?”
“My uncle did a lot of research on you. It’s definitely not a background investigation or anything like that. “You’re very interested in skilled assassins.”
“I heard it earlier though. “I heard there are few assassins in the guild.”
“My uncle is also close to the Guru Guild, and he heard about it there. “Brother’s great performance!”
“It seems you are talking about the mercenary who participated as a bleeding dealer.”
“yes that’s right! In fact, it’s difficult to find a competent bleeding dealer, even in our guild.”
“Is it really that rare?”
“A lot. Even in the international mercenary market, the pay associated with bleeding dealers has tripled in the past few months.”
“Ohh.”
It was an interesting story.
The international mercenary market literally refers to the global market trend of seeking mercenaries regardless of nationality.
The multinational mercenary group that attacked the first research center of Jeongmoon Pharmaceutical was also created in this way.
Of course, there was a large influx of hunters from China, but the structure was like that anyway.
“Considering my brother’s recent growth, no matter how I think about it, he is a talent that should never be overlooked.”
“Youngho. “You are so honest.”
“Iknow, right. I can’t lie. “No, I can’t.”
“You shouldn’t be doing sales related to recruiting.”
“That’s right, brother. ha ha ha!”
Youngho Ahn burst into laughter.
【True Clairvoyant】
【Neutral tendency constellation. You can let the person you want tell the truth, but you must always tell the truth as well.】 Ahn
Young-ho, the Eye of Truth, has the Clairvoyant of Truth as his main constellation.
As a result, what you say is bound to be the truth. It’s difficult to say it back.
The way to avoid being stopped by Ahn Young-ho’s constellation is simple. It is not speaking.
Once you speak, you only tell the truth, so you need to be careful in business conversations.
at that time.
At dusk, the peaceful red glow of the evening comes down along the horizon.
“Catch that bastard!”
“It’s Toushi Guild!”
Suddenly the surroundings became noisy.
I only heard two words, but that was enough to understand the situation.
“what?”
Ahn Young-ho looked around.
Where did you hear it?
Under the circumstances, it appears that a member of the Toushi guild was infiltrating downtown Osaka and was discovered by the Ricou guild’s patrol unit.
Since they are in an all-out war with each other, they are no different from spies entering the territory of a hostile force.
“this way! “This way!”
“Here!”
Citizens shouted.
Citizens who enjoyed peace under the jurisdiction of the Ricou Guild had high trust in them.
Naturally, they had no choice but to be hostile to the hunters of the Toushi Guild.
That moment.
Toshi guild member, who momentarily lost track of the direction he was going, turned the direction of the dagger he was holding.
Among the passers-by, he targeted an elderly woman who was walking down the street with her granddaughter.
He pushed his granddaughter aside with a violent hand and aimed the dagger straight at the grandmother’s neck.
“grandma! Argh!”
The child cried.
“Yuko! You can’t come here! Grandma, it’s okay! “Hurry and run to those girls!”
The grandmother was worried that her granddaughter might be caught up in a sudden hostage situation, so she gestured with all her might.
“이런 개새끼 같은 놈.”
Cursing came out of Ahn Young-ho’s mouth without hesitation.
And then, at that time, I tried to stop Kang-hu in advance because I was worried that he might get caught up in this.
“huh?”
Kang-hu, who should have been right next to him, had disappeared.
I couldn’t hear even the slightest sound, but Kang-hu had already left. It was an unexpected result.
That wasn’t the only thing that surprised Ahn Young-ho.
When I saw Ganghu again, he was already sitting behind the Toushi guild member.
It happened in the blink of an eye.
and.
Sigh! Liquid! Suddenly! Sigh!
Ganghu’s dagger cut down the body of a Toshi guild member without mercy.
Both wrists, hamstrings behind the thighs, and even the back of the neck!
They selected and cut off only the best parts to lose the ability to fight.
It was quite an intentional attack.
Because the situation happened so quickly, the Toushi guild members did not even have time to threaten the grandmother.
The attempt to take hostages ended up being hacked to pieces.
“Thank you! Thank you!”
An old woman covered in blood walked away from him.
I was covered in blood, but my grandmother’s blood was not among it. It was all from the vicious ‘that guy’.
“Wow what?”
“What kind of person is this? Are you Rikou Guild Hunter?”
“I saved grandma right away!”
When passers-by saw Kanghu’s amazing performance, they all picked up their smartphones and captured him on video.
Although it was a filming that Kang-hu was not very happy about, he still couldn’t just watch his grandmother’s danger.
What can I say? At this time, the thought that it was someone else’s business and not mine seemed to have disappeared for a moment.
On the one hand, he may have hoped that tragedy would not befall the grandmother who was living a happy life with her granddaughter.
I didn’t regret it.
Just because you think selfishly doesn’t mean you have to think of yourself in everything.
“Keuheook!”
thud!
The Toushi guild member, who had been completely disarmed by Ganghu’s dagger slash, fell to his knees.
The helpless blood pouring out already hinted at his imminent fate.
“Thank you! thank you!”
You can see a patrol from the Ricou Guild quickly approaching this way.
It looks like the chase was slow because they were both swordsman hunters. This is the inevitable sorrow of sword-wielding thugs.
But right then.
“Fuck…!”
The Toushi guild member, filled with anger, bit his lip and soon his entire body began to swell.
‘It’s self-destruction.’
Kang-hu knew well what kind of trend this change was. It is safe to say that it was a suicide bombing.
Rather than installing a separate bomb, the mana in your body becomes the medium for the explosion.
If it explodes like this, people around it may be in danger because mana explodes as well.
widely!
So I snapped my fingers.
bloodshot.
In the current situation, this is the safest way to defuse the ‘human bomb’.
and.
Puff puff poop!
With an explosion of blood, red flesh fell like snow from the sky.
Fortunately, the grandmother who returned to her granddaughter had already blocked the child’s eyes and ears.
At the very least, it was possible to prevent this scene of cruel slaughter from becoming a tourist attraction for young people.
