The Genius Assassin Who Takes it All - Chapter 200
Episode 200: The Chaser (5)
Kang-hu, who caught the assassin’s back with a lateral move early on, was watching his movements.
I wondered if he might have noticed that he had moved backwards, but I thought I had overestimated him.
“Where the fuck are you! Shin Kang Hoo! “Where is it?”
Cha So-hyuk’s angry shout was heard. Aside from anger, he seems to be annoyed because he can’t see the enemy he wants to see.
“….”
The assassin holds his breath and looks away. I am being as careful as possible and keeping my body in check.
When they are in a state of hiding from each other, the assassin’s battle becomes a strange silence.
This is because in order to find out where the opponent is, even the slightest wind flow must be read.
But Ganghu didn’t need to do that. Because the assassin was visible from the beginning.
There was nothing to measure longer.
The guy who was looking in the wrong direction couldn’t pinpoint his location at all.
so.
Cheok! Suddenly!
He grabbed my head and slit the front of my neck. When it was drawn in conjunction with a major beheading, the flesh and muscles were immediately cut off.
“Knock! Wow! Gagging…!”
The assassin, who had a thick red line forming in the middle of his neck, continued to vomit only the sound of deflated air.
In the meantime, he had his own venom, so he tried to somehow turn his body and aim for Ganghu.
Sigh! Sigh! Sigh!
With an expressionless face, Ganghu made three more stab wounds on the assassin’s neck.
Then, air and blood poured out non-stop from the gaping wound in his neck.
【Blood Flower】
Continuing the finish.
Red blood poured forward as if sprayed from a spray.
With the assassin’s death, two constellations were immediately taken away, but there was no time to look through the list.
There are still two enemies left.
in between.
The self-immolation was scattered by Cha So-hyuk’s attack, and the illusion also disappeared as time ran out.
What remains is a shadow.
The warlock must have decided that mental attacks would not work on Ganghu, so he now deployed his attack skills.
Coo coo coo coo.
Basic skill Jinyeom Fall.
A purple flame sphere was seen falling from the air, trying to suppress Ganghu’s movements.
The skill level seemed to be high. Salt fell over a wide area, and smoke rose from where it landed.
This means that not only is there a burning effect unique to the flame, but additional oxidation is also added.
If you are exposed to this, even if you hide, you will be discovered due to the smoke and are likely to cause considerable pain.
“Shinganghu…!”
Cha So-hyuk is seen running at full speed.
Cha So-hyuk had one drawback, which was that his mobility was inversely proportional to his excellent attack power.
Perhaps that was why the speed of the chase was slower than Ganghu had initially calculated.
And even if it got closer, there was no room for pressure.
Papat!
This is because all you have to do is select one shadow and change its position, like now.
Then Cha So-hyuk becomes completely like a dog chasing a chicken.
Kanghu continued to monitor the warlock’s movements while maintaining the maximum number of shadows at five.
This is the last one-on-one time with Cha So-hyuk. You need to deal with the warlock first, as it has a lot of potential to continue to bother you.
Taang!
At that time, Ayane’s second attempted sniping magic bullet exploded in flames at Cha So-hyuk’s front foot.
It seemed difficult to hit the target because you had to aim at an enemy moving from afar. This is a natural result.
The reason why the archer left this world with a single blow was because he was still standing in one place.
Hitting a stationary target is something that anyone who knows how to handle a gun can do.
Phew. Phew. Phew.
At that time, I felt several invisible dots appear not far from Ganghu.
‘Ignition.’
Ignition is the level 200 basic skill of a warlock.
It is a skill that allows other choices such as oxidation or exhaustion, but this warlock seems to have chosen ignition.
The scary thing about ignition is that the fire starts from an invisible source.
And when this fire touches the body, the fire spreads throughout the body as if oil had been poured on it.
It is an excellent skill for dealing with the self-immolation of another person.
However, the mana sense, which was maximized due to congenital mana hypersensitivity, correctly pinpointed the location of the invisible dot.
So, I immediately switched the shadow and position slightly away from the utterance point.
Taang! Taang!
The magic bullets that flew in succession hindered Cha So-hyuk’s movement.
Judging by the faster reloading, it appears that the use of magic bullets has been switched from killing to suppressing.
Although there was no conversation with Ayane, Ganghu immediately read what Ayane was thinking.
It was a signal to deal with the warlock as he would suppress Cha So-hyuk’s movements as much as possible.
‘I think the same thing.’
It was something I felt during the Battle of the First Research Institute at the Main Gate, but Ayane was good at reading the thoughts of the assassin herself.
It almost feels like we are thinking and breathing together right next to each other.
Usually, the majority of hunters judge the situation based on their own standards.
If you are a gunner sniper, you check whether the timing is right for you to sniper or whether the target shows an opening.
In the process, we inevitably become negligent about the movements of our colleagues or partners.
This is because one must remain faithful to one’s duty, which is ‘sniping’. It is a type of occupational disease that cannot be helped.
However, Ayane read that Kang-hoo places Cha So-hyuk as the lowest priority.
The hunter’s class that would have been sent from the Toushi Guild was not mentioned in any prior discussions. Because I couldn’t figure it out.
She made the decision while thinking about Kang-hoo according to the situation, and the current position was what Kang-hoo wanted.
【Cute!】
Kanghu summoned a trusty slime in Cha Sohyuk’s path and immediately launched a lightning strike at the warlock.
“joy.”
If I had known why Kang-hu launched his first attack with lightning, I wouldn’t have snorted.
Unfortunately, the warlock did not feel anything strange as he saw Ganghu’s dagger flying in an extremely obvious path.
Since the two guys suffered in vain earlier, isn’t he being too easy on himself, who is at the highest level?
【Devil’s Wall】
Immediately a wall was erected to protect the front. This is the basic defense skill of a warlock who has steadily improved his proficiency.
Coo!
Soon the dagger collided with the wall and bounced off. The warlock was confident of a successful defense, but…
Kwaang!
Something unexpected happened.
The devil’s wall itself was pushed back. This was because of the pushback option attached to the lightning blade.
Pow!
“Ugh!”
As a result, a laughable situation was created in which his face and body collided with the wall he had built.
The dagger was blocked, but I had no idea that the wall itself would be pushed back.
The warlock, whose face was momentarily shocked, took advantage of the opportunity to stumble.
【Vision Robbery】
【Shallow Chaos】
Ganghu applied a disruption skill.
If it were like normal, there would be no way a class like a warlock would be affected by such a blind skill.
But now it is different. The moment you manage your own pain is your most vulnerable moment.
“shit…!”
The warlock, who recognized that there was a problem with his vision and senses, immediately used the ignition skill.
Anyone can see that now is the perfect situation to be targeted by Kang-hoo.
So, I planned to create random flashpoints in the nearby area to deter Kang-hu’s approach.
It was a strategically correct decision.
‘good.’
This was Kang Hu’s aim.
Ganghu, who immediately copied the ignition skill with his personal skills, deployed the skill towards the point where the warlock stumbled.
【Skill – Fire】
The warlock fired more skills, perhaps knowing that his skills were coming back in the same way.
Allowing access to an assassin would mean death to the magic world.
So, I poured out fire-like skills without stopping.
I thought that if this continued, even Ganghu would not be able to come.
In fact, Ganghu did not approach the warlock as he intended. I just gave the skill back.
Tragedy occurred right away.
Grumble!
“Off! Off! Kwaaaa!”
The body of the warlock caught in the ignition that came together at one point began to burn in an instant.
Cha So-hyuk and the black magician who became the victim were shocked.
A speech skill that you have never used was used? This couldn’t have happened.
Unless the person was thinking of committing suicide, something crazy like this could not have happened. It didn’t make sense.
“Whoa.”
After catching his breath for a moment, Ganghu held the dagger upside down and threw it at the warlock again with all his might.
It was a lightning strike loaded with physical power in addition to skills.
and.
Ssang!
The dagger that flew through the flames soon stuck in the center of the warlock’s forehead, ending his life.
【Soul Imprint – Corrupted Beliefs】
【Soul Imprint – Retrieval】
Next, I finished the process by recovering the dagger that had been imprinted earlier.
Now all that remains is Cha So-hyuk.
Turning his gaze to him, Ganghu snapped his fingers without even looking back.
Probably already dead.
It was a finale where a clean kill was confirmed and killed with blood. Behind Kang-hu’s back, bloody flowers fluttered like a background.
Meanwhile, Cha So-hyuk cleared away Ayane’s checks and the unexpected slime and rushed back.
Papat.
However, the distance between Kang-hoo and Cha So-hyuk, who changed their shadows and positions, became farther apart as they got closer.
It was the second time I became a dog chasing a chicken.
* * *
“Fuck…. What are these bastards? “Why is everything falling apart like this?”
Cha So-hyuk, who gave up the chase for a moment and stopped, cursed when he saw the corpses of the hunters lying on the ground.
They were hunters assigned by the Toushi Guild, saying they would be quite helpful.
However, within a few minutes of starting the battle, all three were dead.
A sniper who wasn’t even in the calculations came out of nowhere and caused the archer to die as soon as it started.
As their movements were thoroughly trampled, the assassin and warlock died one after another.
Cha So-hyuk also predicted that Kang-hoo would not be easily defeated.
However, there was no picture in his mind of the three of them, excluding him, being separated so early.
All of the hunters who were above level 300 lost their lives due to Ganghu’s aim.
As a result, the deployment of snipers was something that Kang Hu had prepared in advance, so it could be seen as his goal.
Kang-hoo turned his gaze towards Ayane with an angry Cha So-hyuk in front of him.
Then he signaled by drawing a circle with his index finger.
This means please do not intervene from now on. In other words, it is a signal that he will compete one-on-one with Cha So-hyuk.
Cha So-hyuk glared at Kang-hoo.
He ambitiously showed up with his partner to seek revenge, but it turned out to be ridiculous.
“You cowardly bastard. Have a sniper?”
“Isn’t it cowardly for you to come here to catch one person?”
“what?”
“If you don’t know what the word cowardly means, don’t use it at all.”
Crackling.
Cha So-hyuk gritted his teeth.
The more I talked and the more I fought, the more I felt disgusted by Kang-hu.
Of course, this is just disgust based on Cha So-hyuk himself. In fact, the person who is disgusting is Cha So-hyuk.
“Now there’s nothing to be more careful about or worry about. “I will cut off your head and dedicate it to Sohee’s memory.”
“Get ready to smell the incense together.”
Kang-hoo raised his middle finger, further irritating Cha So-hyuk.
Anyway, this fight will only end when one side dies. There is no such thing as a middle ground. Mediation cannot exist.
Is that why?
In an instant, Cha So-hyuk’s eyes and entire body began to turn red, and soon smoke began to rise.
It looked quite threatening, so you could tell it was an awakening skill even at a glance.
“It is my will to kill you without fail, even if it means gnawing on your blood. “Feel my anger, Shin Kang-hu.”
I felt an overwhelming sense of life from Cha So-hyuk that was completely different from what I had felt just now.
The real sword battle is just around the corner.
