The Genius Assassin Who Takes it All - Chapter 69
Episode 69: Encounter with Kang Dong-hyun (2)
* * *
Han Seo-yeon safely(?) changed into her pajamas and headed to her room thanks to the pleasantly broken atmosphere.
It looks like he has something to bring. Kanghu sat feeling the faint scent of coffee wafting from the living room.
In fact, I could be as faithful as I wanted to be faithful to my instincts.
Emotions may be dry and dull, but desires are vivid and full.
sexual desire? Of course there is.
In order to survive and navigate this crazy world in a normal way, I also needed to let go of my sexual desires.
But I didn’t want to use her mind simply to satisfy my desires.
Unlike other people, it was not easy for Han Seo-yeon to be treated lightly in business terms.
That would be the pure heart that was naturally overlaid while possessing Shin Kang-hu in the original work.
No matter how many times I tried to erase it, it was so deeply embedded that it was like an emotional stamp that could never be erased.
Not long after, Han Seo-yeon approached me with a fairly thick bundle of paper, saying, “I found it.”
“Oppa, look at this.”
“What?”
“I know. “What kind of disease does my brother suffer from?”
“yes.”
Han Seo-yeon is the only person who knows about Kang-hu’s congenital mana hypersensitivity.
This is because it is a disease that Kang-hu suffered from from the moment he realized his ability as a hunter.
There was a time when they were passionately in love with each other, so it was no wonder that she knew about his illness.
“I’ve been looking into it consistently for a while, and lately I’ve been looking for someone who can treat my illness in a more diverse way.”
“There won’t be any. “It’s an incurable disease.”
I spoke to her as if I were assertive, but it wasn’t like I had no expectations at all.
However, since the higher the expectations, the greater the disappointment, it was closer to consciously lowering the positive possibilities.
“There is someone in Romania who has been intensively investigating a hunter who developed a rare disease after awakening.”
“Romania?”
“There is a researcher named Mihai Bancu. “That person is also a hunter and also suffered from potion hyperreactivity.”
“It’s potion hyperreactivity…”
It’s not a common incurable disease.
However, the tone was not unfamiliar to Kang-hu, as it was a disease he had thought about at least once.
Kang-hu had a point, so he asked her straight away.
“Will drinking the potion cause an allergic reaction?”
“That’s right. That’s why he can never drink stamina magic potions. “They say there’s a reaction of rejection just by smelling it.”
“Interesting.”
Contrary to the interest expressed in a dry manner, Ganghu was secretly surprised as the symptoms were exactly the same as he had envisioned in the past.
This too is the embodiment of unconsciousness. This is a form of reality that we often encounter these days.
“There are cases of integumentary hyperplasia and congenital insensitivity that have not only been studied but also solved.”
“You mean you had treatment?”
“that’s right. That was a month ago. It hasn’t been that long. “This is a translated version of the interview.”
Looking at the data handed over to Han Seo-yeon, there was indeed a case where an incurable disease was cured.
It was not a trashy article from a third-rate media outlet, but a quality article written meticulously by an accredited hunter media outlet.
“It was really therapeutic. “The follow-up article also stated that there was no recurrence or traces left behind.”
“that’s right! I wish my brother would visit this person at least once. You had a hard time. “It is currently in progress.”
“Hmm…”
I thought Master Kay was the only solution, but it seemed like there was a need to look outside the country as well.
But there was also a need to be cautious.
This is because congenital mana hypersensitivity must not disappear. Only the pain should be able to be removed like tweezers.
When the congenital mana hypersensitivity itself disappears, one’s greatest advantage also disappears.
“Thank you, Seoyeon. “There’s no need for you to take this much care of me, but you went through a lot of trouble.”
“What trouble? “I just got lucky.”
“There is too much accumulated data to say that.”
Kang Hu knew very well that Han Seo-yeon was completely lying.
Because of her personality, you would have consistently recognized her. He may even have gone out of his way to look for it.
She was that kind of person. A person who is dedicated and cares for others more than himself.
Kanghu added.
“I want to pay for this material in some way. “I hope you don’t refuse.”
“joy. it’s okay. “I have a lot of money.”
Seoyeon Han smiled and answered.
These are not empty words.
She is also a talented hunter and must have received a large down payment when she was recruited into the Purification Guild.
“But I don’t like free stuff.”
“Then just give me what I want. “Then I’m happy to receive it, and you feel at ease because it’s not free.”
“what?”
“Just today. Please spend time with me for just one day. As before. “Just once.”
“….”
Before she could even finish her sentence, Kang-hoo started thinking more as he saw her reddened eyes.
You can’t go back to the feelings of the past. However, you can recall and relive the memories of that time.
If that’s what Han Seo-yeon wants in return, she can give it as much as she wants.
This is done with sincerity, not acting. Because the memories of those hot days still remain.
“okay.”
Kang-hu received a short speech.
There was no need for a long conversation. Because we know each other so well. So just a look was enough.
The sun was already setting in the western sky.
A night that will come soon.
It was the longest night since I woke up in this world, but at the same time, it seemed like it would be the least lonely night.
Just for a little while.
I thought I could throw off the excessively controlling ties of reason and just focus on my emotions and instincts.
The thought was quietly growing that perhaps moderating all emotions might not be the answer.
In that way, the time between the two passed deeply and passionately and quickly like the tide.
* * *
The next evening.
Ganghu had arrived at a point about 500 meters in front of Club Hades.
It was so prosperous that one wondered if it was a place where there had been a large-scale bloodshed and kidnapping incident some time ago.
The evidence was the customers who started flocking in even before the sun set.
Young souls were entering in groups of twos and threes to fully enjoy the pleasures and entertainment of Friday night.
Of course, I thought that the majority of the guests would be Eclipse affiliates or the general public.
Even though Eclipse is a criminal organization, it does not touch the general public.
To be precise, it was closer to being ignored because it had no marketability.
They mainly kidnap hunters who know how to manipulate mana. Then, they are sent to a concentration camp to mine magic stones.
In other words, workers who knew how to use mana were needed, but ordinary people who only ate food were not needed.
‘The only catch is that the internal structure may have changed.’
Since there was a battle last time, the possibility that the internal structure may have changed cannot be ruled out.
The location of the stairs may not have changed, but the path to get there may be different from before.
The most appropriate method for now is to go in stealthily without being noticed.
However, Kang-hu’s plan is about to get a little complicated because he can’t stay hidden for long.
“What are you doing here?”
“…?”
Suddenly, someone tapped Ganghu on the shoulder from the side.
The only acquaintance at Daejeon Station is Han Seo-yeon, so who on earth recognized her?
I turned my head.
Then, a woman was seen wearing a tight-fitting dress that matched the unconventional atmosphere of Hades.
I couldn’t recognize her right away because everything, including the way she did her makeup, was different from usual, but when I looked closer, it was Yoon Sang-mi.
“Why are you here?”
“That’s what I want to ask. Why is your brother here? And those are the only clothes you have?”
“Are you here to have fun?”
“Of course I came to have fun! I don’t think someone like my brother would like the club. “Are you here to fight?”
It was a question typical of Yoon Sang-mi.
That is correct.
Because there is no way Kang-hoo will come to shake his body at the club. In fact, Ganghu was also very physically ill.
As an assassin, his movements are fluid and flashy, but as a dancer, he is a very stiff figure.
I explained everything to her.
This is because it is a dungeon that she cannot enter anyway, even if she knows everything.
On the other hand, he was aware of the feelings of Yoon Sang-mi, who was a million times more favorable to him than to Eclipse.
After hearing the story, Sangmi Yoon made an interesting expression. It seems like this is her first time hearing this news.
“Can I help you?”
“I wasn’t saying this because I needed help.”
“Anyway, you have to go to the 7th basement floor, which is closed to the outside world. “It must be difficult to do it alone, right?”
“Whether you go alone or as a couple, it’s the same. “If you’re trying to solve it by force, it’s better to be alone.”
“Of course, if you try to break through it with force, it will happen. But I think that’s a too simplistic view of me.”
“Then is there a non-simple way?”
“What do you think of today’s snowy lovers concept?”
“Explain it easily.”
“This is a club. This means that it is not strange for men and women to move beyond the 6th floor underground and into a secret space.”
Even though he did not enjoy clubs, Kang-hoo knew well how the emotions of young men and women heightened within them.
Sangmi Yoon’s words were plausible.
“Why? Even if I went in, I would be the only one who could get in. “There is no advantage you can take.”
“I’m just trying to make you owe me some money. “You’re the one who hates that feeling of debt.”
“I create debt on purpose. “Kkkkkk.”
I laughed.
This is because Yoon Sang-mi had similar intentions to the way Kang-hoo treated Lee Hyun-seok a day ago.
It seems like everything in a person’s mind is spinning.
Making the other person feel indebted to one another in order to build a relationship is definitely effective.
“Please help me?”
Sangmi Yoon raised his voice.
If she adjusts her hands and feet, it’s easier to approach.
If you can go all the way to the 6th floor underground, the time you have to invest in hiding and hiding your presence will be reduced accordingly.
Moreover, Kang-hoo’s face had not yet been sold throughout Eclipse.
As Kang Dong-hyun buried Cha So-hee’s death as an internal secret, only a very small number of officials know Kang-hu’s personal information.
If today is an opportunity, it is an opportunity.
“Help me. “I’m willing to go into debt.”
Kang-hoo asked Yoon Sang-mi for help.
When I thought about it this way, it seemed like my relationship with her was truly unbreakable.
I met her again and got to work with her again in Hades.
Unlike the past, it has a deeper concept.
* * *
After entering Club Hades.
Enough time has passed.
Kang-hoo and Yoon Sang-mi were about to act as a man and a woman who felt attracted to each other in order to get a chance to go to the 7th floor underground.
Looking out of the corner of his eye, Kanghu could see an unexpected person appear in his surroundings.
It was Kang Dong-hyun.
“Everyone has worked hard.”
It wasn’t that far away, but fortunately, he didn’t make eye contact with Kang Dong-hyun.
He appeared at too perfect a time to be a coincidence.
Whoa whoa.
Kang Dong-hyun looked around, blowing out the hazy smoke of the beginning of the year.
That moment.
“Excuse me.”
Kang-hoo used Yoon Sang-mi, who was facing him, as a shield and pressed his lips to her.
In a split second, Kang Dong-hyun’s gaze passed by, scanning the back of Yoon Sang-mi’s head.
The scene of intense skinship and seduction between men and women is common and natural in clubs.
Kang Dong-hyun glanced at it casually and headed somewhere.
It was a close moment.
