The Genius Assassin Who Takes it All - Chapter 294
Chapter 294 Infernus (4)

First of all, stat distribution was not an urgent issue right now, so after completing a rough check, Ganghu visited the bereaved family.
I thanked them again and held hands one by one to strengthen my resolve.
“I will use this talisman to the limit so as not to tarnish the original owner’s reputation. “I am truly grateful for the opportunity to encounter the talisman.”
Then, a woman who appeared to be the mother of the original owner, Hunter, spoke with tears in her eyes.
“My child did that. “It’s a talisman that he can never handle, and there are too many secrets.”
“It seems so. “It wasn’t easy for me to guess.”
“There is something called the Gates of Hell, and it is said that even constellations are affected by that hell. “That’s the first and last information you’ve ever given me publicly.”
“…thank you. “You could have not told me.”
“I can only tell you this and I’m sorry.”
It is definitely a talisman with many secrets. It looks like there are things that even the previous owner couldn’t easily mention.
These are also things we need to learn about in the future. Now, even if I think about it for a hundred days, I can’t figure it out.
So the bereaved family left.
He said he plans to return the money he receives from providing opportunities to hunters to his home country and donate it to a rare disease research center.
The original owner said he wanted to use it meaningfully because there was a precedent that his son had suffered from a rare disease.
In fact, Kang Hu thinks it doesn’t matter if it was for profit, but he supported and supported the decision of the bereaved family because it was undoubtedly a good intention.
Meanwhile.
Thanks to the consideration of Kang Bok-hwa and Jeong Yu-ri, Kang-hoo had more time to relax in the secret room.
For some reason, I felt as if I had lost touch with the guests, but I still felt comfortable lying down on the wide sofa.
The process of attributing the talisman earlier wasn’t very long, but it seemed to have consumed a lot of mental strength.
I just laid down comfortably for a moment and fell asleep. I was so tired.
After a short, deep sleep of about 10 minutes.
Ganghu opened the stat window and looked at the stats to be raised in conjunction with the amulet. It is time for distribution.
‘Once you set 66 to your tenacity… your tenacity becomes 1000.’
There is enough difference between 999 and 1000 determination that it can be said that the system’s judgment is clearly different.
When it comes to items, it’s like changing grades, so there was a reason to set the tenacity to exactly 1000.
However, if you ask whether it would make a difference if you raise it to 1010 or 1020, it would not be true.
Related coefficients are only adjusted to a slightly higher line.
So, we decided to match the number that would yield the greatest efficiency.
‘If you do this, the remaining distribution stat is 434. First, let’s max it out in anti-horse. ‘Then is it 300?’
It is said that it is impossible to exceed 300 in one field, so the maximum increase in resistance is 300.
Then the remaining stat
would be 134. The strength seemed to be good.
I thought it was enough to invest 1 in the agility stat every time the level went up.
It seemed that it would be useful as the damage related to Kanghu’s ‘one shot’ skill would increase only if he increased his strength.
Physical strength is still sufficient, but investing even 1 in magical power is a stat that would be a waste.
After distributing the stats within the amulet, I carefully checked the status of the changed stats.
【Shinganghu Lv. 276】
【Class: Assassin】
【Unique Talents: Fairly excellent main power / Very good body vision / Versatility】
【Strength 1397】【Agility 1444】 【
Stamina 1115】【Magic power 31】
【Anti-horsepower 1060】【Zip 1000】
【* Dark Ages 455 】【* Holy power 115】
“It looks good.”
It felt good to see the precision of the numbers accurately matched to the fabric. Is this a numbers game?
On the one hand, after doing this, this time I was greedy for a stat of 2000, regardless of whether I was strong or stubborn.
This is because a new world opens up in units of thousands for the anti-horse and millsmith series.
“after. finished.”
Kang Hu lay down on the sofa again and caressed the amulet.
Who would have thought that a small amulet the size of a thumb would contain not only incredible stats but also many unknown secrets.
It will likely take some time to become familiar with the secrets of this amulet and the ‘eye’ located within.
Of course, just as I promised the bereaved family, I planned to find a way to utilize the amulet to its full potential.
The same goes for uncovering the secrets hidden in amulets. It seemed like there would be more work to be done in the future.

After getting enough rest.
I wanted to take a look inside the VVIP exclusive floor where the secret room is located, so I opened the door and came out.
Baek Seon-tae, whom I had met once before, was guarding the door. It seemed that Kang Bok-hwa had left security in charge.
I wondered if I could trust Baek Seon-tae, a former Yeosu warlord, like this.
Even if Kang-hoo had left Yeosu when he first saw Baek Seon-tae, he must have only recently arrived here.
There is no way Kang Bok-hwa can trust just anyone. So, is this person possibly related to Kang Bok-hwa?
Anyway, as Kang-hu stood there with his eyes focused, Baek Seon-tae lowered his head and began to speak cautiously.
“This is how I see you.”
“long time no see.”
Kang Hu had completely forgotten about Baek Seon-tae until he saw him today.
The person who was consistently interested was Baek Seon-tae, not Kang-hoo.
Still, as it was not their first meeting, Kang-hoo also gave a happy greeting with an awkward smile.
“I have been listening to every single piece of news related to Shin Kang-hoo. You have become more famous and amazing than when I first saw you. “You are really cool.”
Baek Seon-tae was so low-key to himself that he wondered if this was okay.
In fact, he didn’t even compete with Baek Seon-tae’s strength; it was just that Baek Seon-tae saw his abilities once.
Does that alone mean that he is already judging that he is a much higher level person than himself?
Baek Seon-tae was looking at Kang-hu like an ordinary person would look at a celebrity.
“That’s too much praise.”
“no. I was watching Shin Kang-hoo’s battle video in the break room earlier. “You are my role model.”
“is that so.”
I feel like I have to give some kind of happy reaction, but that doesn’t work out well. Thanks to this, people ended up wondering if it was just plain boring.
“Actually, I went to the Purification Guild because I wanted to grow further. But I failed in the final screening.”
“You mean you made it to the final screening?”
“yes. But unfortunately it seemed like it was filtered out at the end. “It just doesn’t work out.”
“I came close to passing through the eye of the needle. “I think you can be proud of it.”
Kanghu patted his shoulder and encouraged him.
The fact that it failed in the final screening means that it went all the way to Jang Si-hwan’s review stage.
Perhaps, by Jang Si-hwan’s standards, he was not approved for membership because he showed significant weaknesses.
However, just getting there meant that you were already ahead of the competition among the leading candidates.
So I thought that Baek Seon-tae’s skills might be better than Kang-hu thought.
“If you don’t mind.”
“hmm?”
“Can you give me some feedback? “As an assassin, I would like to be evaluated by an assassin.”
“I am also a learner. I have no intention of teaching anyone carelessly. Even more so now.”
Ganghu spoke honestly.
There was a time when I thought that if I were as old as I was, I might be able to give someone some advice.
However, my thoughts changed after receiving the teachings of Cheonsalnosu.
That was arrogance. He was just an unpolished assassin who still had a long way to go.
The reason why I have been doing well so far without any problems is because the corners that were not smoothed out have worked in a positive way.
I was sure that if I met someone skilled enough to see through my movements like apple training, I would be trampled mercilessly.
“As expected… you are humble.”
“I will be grateful and happy to hear your words. “I will take pride in being a role model.”
“It may have been unreasonable to say so, but I am grateful for such a positive response.”
“Next time I see you again, I hope I have the skills to give you at least a small tip.”
It was Ganghu’s sincerity.
That’s why I had a strong desire to grow and absorb the teachings from the Cheonsalnoshu like a sponge.
Baek Seon-tae is probably thinking similarly.
I guess he wants to somehow build a relationship with Kang-hoo and learn things like movement and judgment strategies.
“thank you.”
The reason why I began to care more about Baek Seon-tae than I thought was simple.
It was also a sphere that he met by chance in this vast country of Korea and met again by chance.
It was also because he knew very well the reality that skilled assassins were precious.
I’m not acquainted with him, but I hoped the next time I see him he’ll be a little more developed.
I guess it’s an expectation for the same industry(?). It was a strange feeling.

after.
Kang-hoo came out of the market building with Jeong Yu-ri and started moving to the restaurant she guided.
Since it’s been a while since I’ve seen her, I thought we’d talk some more over dinner.
If I think about it, I haven’t heard anything about her recent status other than that she was going to the dungeon diligently.
While waiting for your turn in the crowded queue in front of the restaurant.
Jeong Yu-ri received a phone call that kept coming from somewhere, and Kang-hoo saw a text message that had just arrived from Jeon Se-hyuk.
[We decided to wait 12 hours. In terms of time, it is 04:00 a.m.]
Kang-hoo asked Jeong Yu-ri for a moment’s understanding, then moved to a place without crowds and called Jeon Se-hyuk.
Since D-Day came earlier than expected, Kang-hoo had to move tonight.
– Yes, this is Jeon Se-hyuk.
“I confirmed the text message. “It’s early morning tomorrow.”
– yes. The heavy rain forecast came sooner than expected. And the situation on the Cheongju side began to gain momentum.
“It looks like Black started to break down earlier than expected.”
– It looks like Eclipse has mobilized more troops. Some say the headquarters is almost empty.
“Let me just check one thing. “What happens if I slit Jo Hwan-seong’s head first before 4 a.m.?”
– You don’t have to worry about that. The gathering of our troops is already over.
“ah.”
It seemed that they had already advanced to the vicinity of the Cheongmyeong camp.
Nevertheless, Eclipse’s lack of movement probably means that they did not notice their movement.
This was a point where we could see how sincere Eclipse was about taking over the Cheongju Liberation Zone and how much they were not anticipating the Allied Forces’ surprise attack.
– Even if you fail to assassinate the camp leader, don’t overdo it. Anyway, we can move right away.
“It also means that if I kill the warden and contact him, I can leave at any time.”
– you’re right.
“Then…”
As Kang-hu paused for a moment to catch his breath, a gulp was heard on the other end of the receiver.
Jeon Se-hyuk was expecting Kang-hu to infiltrate, but was also worried about what might happen.
Whether Jo Hwan-seong was alive or dead was not Jeon Se-hyuk’s concern. His concern was Ganghu’s safety from the beginning.
I didn’t want to lose my precious assassin power by overexerting myself to achieve my goal.
Soon, Ganghu finished his unfinished sentence.
“Let’s slit Jo Hwan-seong’s head and contact him again. We’re moving tonight. “Before midnight.”
An assassination plan to completely break away from the dark past. The die has been cast.
