It’s frustrating…

I muttered subconsciously and barely pushed up my stiff eyelids. A rough concrete floor was seen with a blurred view.

It was only then that I remembered that I passed out after being hit with the syringe Master Kang Seung-geon took out.

“What…”

As soon as I regained consciousness, aching pain poured all over my body as if it had been waiting. My arms were tied behind my back, so I was severely numb and uncomfortable. There was no sign of it coming loose, even if I put strength on it.

I immediately tried to raise my energy to use the ability, but it didn’t fill up as if something was blocking it. The straps that bind both arms were like a shutter item that blocked the wearer’s energy.

He was doing all sorts of things. Well, I didn’t think he’d kidnap me and let me use my ability…

‘I’m sure it’s planned.’

I couldn’t believe he prepared a shutter item. Fortunately, my legs were not tied, but it was difficult to escape in this state.

I remembered the last time I saw him before I lost consciousness, the hysterical figure of Kang Seung-geon. This was the second time I had met him properly since the C13 Area. I saw him at the party, but it was a momentary moment, so I didn’t think we met face-to-face.

He was a crazy bastard wherever I looked at him, but he was so careless. I never imagined that a guild master would kidnap a person so openly.

“Huu…”

I forced my upper body to stand up. As I moved my body to see if there was still any medicine left, my eyes trembled with a stiff sensation in my neck.

As I bowed my head and picked my breath, with the sound of the iron door opening, someone stepped down the stairs and came down.

“You woke up.”

It was Master Kang Seung-geon with dry lips and dark circles under his eyes. He was dressed in a white suit that was too burdensome to look at. I inadvertently frowned.

‘He’s like that… isn’t he skinny?’

When I first saw him in the C13 Area, I thought he had a more rounded body.

“Don’t look at me with those eyes. Since then, I think I have brought you in very gentlemanly. Don’t you think so?”

Kang Seung-geon said, touching his body like a zombie. I closed my eyes slowly and opened them, then asked calmly.

“Why are you doing this to me? This is my second time seeing Master Kang Seung-geon.”

“We meet for the second time?”

Kang Seung-geon looked at me with laughter. However, the eyes were out of focus somewhere.

“Don’t lie. You saw me, right? At that fucking party.”

“……”

“Fuck… come to think of it, if it wasn’t for these bastards…”

Kang Seung-geon, who was shooting with a poisonous voice, suddenly bowed his head and started muttering something. I swallowed my dry saliva, feeling an ominous sensation coming up. Cold sweat ran down my chin as I felt the pain rising from my arm.

The cool atmosphere surrounding the area was not very good. Kang Seung-geon was much crazier than I thought.

I don’t know why, but I thought that it was very dangerous to be alone with him while being tied up.

“Hey there, Kang Seung-geon, ugh…!”

Kuung!

Kang Seung-geon, who was standing still like a crazy person, rushed at me with great speed. Falling to the side helplessly in a tied state, I immediately clenched my teeth at the intense pain I felt on the back of my head.

“Do you think I’m funny too? Cheeky bastards… This bastard or that bastard, one of them…”

“Ah, Uugh!”

As Kang Seung-geon applied strength to his hand, the sharp pain intensified as if my scalp was going to fall off. It was difficult to calmly deal with the unpredictable and violent behaviour.

I twisted to get out, but Kang Seung-geun, who was holding me back, never made me dream and suppressed me. As he exhaled his rough breath, Kang Seung-geon opened his mouth with a shrill voice.

“It’s obvious to bastards like you. Since Cheon Sa-yeon’s doing a good job to you, so you’ve been installed without knowing anything, fuck.” (천사연이 좀 잘해 주니까 뭣도 모르고 설치는 꼴은, not sure what’s he talking about)

“Gasp, keuk… .”

“Cheon Sa-yeon, you fools blinded by that dirty orphan.”

Dirty Orphan.

At those words, I opened my eyes, which kept closing in pain. Kang Seung-geon, whose face was flushed with excitement, was seen in my blurred vision with tears welling up.

“What a dirty orphan!”

When we first met, he said that to Cheon Sa-yeon. What did he mean by a dirty orphan. I laughed openly at Kang Seung-geon and said.

“I’m sorry, but… my personality is basically this shit.”

“What?”

“In my opinion, an orphan like Cheon Sa-yeon is far better than a madman with a sense of inferiority like you—”

Before I could finish speaking, my eyes flickered and a strong shock shook my head. Bang! Before the pain could go away, Kang Seung-geon banged my head against the wall once more. Piiii— Tinnitus filled my ears, and hot, sticky stuff poured down my face.

“Fuck you bastard…”

“Gasp…”

The droopy body trembled and blood from my head ran down my cheeks.

Every time Kang Seung-geon shouted and grabbed my collar and shook it, the sensation of being hit in the head with a hammer followed. A strange voice was heard in the midst of the consciousness that kept cutting off like a film.

“I knew this was going to happen.”

A woman with her wavy brown hair hanging down was standing there looking at me in her bright red shoes. With her arms crossed in a stiff motion, she said in a youthful voice that did not suit her tall height.

“Have you already noticed the emotional domination side effects? I should have guessed from the time I put the piglets in, but in the meantime, this accident happened.”

Kang Seung-geon’s movements suddenly stopped. His face, which had been severely distorted by anger, began to unravel when a woman appeared.

“Uh… uh, oh. We, well, no…”

“……?”

Kang Seung-geon stuttered to the end and hurriedly fell from me. It was very strange to see him as if I was looking at another person.

To such Kang Seung-geon, the woman gave an order in a pathetic tone.

“What are you looking at? Won’t go out? Guard the underground entrance. Don’t annoy me.”

Kang Seung-geon, who was standing still, ran out without looking back. Kkiiik, clock! I looked at the woman as I heard the iron door closing.

‘That woman, something…’

Even just looking at it, a foreign feeling of rejection came over me. It was a feeling I had never felt before.

Clack. Clack.

The woman stepped forward with the sound of her heels. The woman bent over and pushed her face closer to me, lying on the floor. I stopped breathing for a moment and instinctively pulled my body back.

Non-blinking eyes. An inorganic appearance that didn’t feel excessively smooth skin and no vitality.

“Doll…”

“Hi? See you again.”

Hearing my whisper, the doll opened its mouth with a voice full of interest. When I looked closely at it, the corners of its mouth were connected to its chin. It opened its mouth like a human, but couldn’t hide the subtle creak.

“I should have come to see you sooner. I was late thinking about what to wear for Karen, and that stinky piglet thing happened. I’m sorry.”

“What…”

“Still, you weren’t seriously injured, were you? You won’t die at this rate… Don’t get too mad. If you continue bleeding, I’ll sew it up for you later.”

The doll’s eyes gleamed grotesquely in the light of pure white light. A creepy feeling of terror ran through the nape of my neck. I had goosebumps as my back, wet with a cold sweat, became cold.

“Are you scared? So cute! The more I see it, the more I like it. Samael would love it too. It’s a pity that I ended up using the saved Karen… Well, there is nothing I can do.”

“……”

Samael? Karen? I couldn’t understand what the doll was saying. Seeing me confused, the doll snorted and straightened its bent waist.

“Then see you later~”

It left the room without any regrets, just like when a doll with a cheerful greeting came in. Being left alone, I let out a hot breath and let my tensed body hang down.

‘Tired…’

It had been a long time since I thought it was hard to handle. Feeling the pain and fatigue in my head at the same time, I closed my eyes.

* * *

“Master.”

When Cheon Sa-yeon and Kim Woo-jin got out of the car, Woo Seo-hyuk, who had come first and was waiting, hurriedly approached. Hong Si-ah and Cha Soo-yeon were also there.

Cheon Sa-yeon, who looked around them once, omitted the greeting and immediately brought up the main topic.

“What’s suspicious?”

“I couldn’t find it. I’m sorry.”

The place they arrived was in front of an empty building, not far from the Blun Guild. Cheon Sa-yeon knew who the owner of this building was.

“Is it true that there is Talented Han Yi-gyeol here?”

Hong Si-ah looked up at the building with a complicated expression. It was hard to believe that a person was kidnapped in a building in the middle of Seoul.

“No. If you kidnapped someone, shouldn’t you go to a mountainous area in Gangwon-do in common sense?”

“When was Kang Seung-geon a common-sense guy?”

Cheon Sa-yeon indifferently responded to Hong Si-ah’s absurd remarks and took out a red jacket and SS-class Lilith sword from his inventory. Seeing this, Hong Si-ah asked him with her eyes wide open.

“Do you need to bring out an SS-class weapon? Even so…”

“There must be a reason he chose this place.”

Cheon Sa-yeon slowly began to feel annoyed with Hong Si-ah. Before Cheon Sa-yeon’s dirty temperament raised to his head, Woo Seo-hyuk quickly intervened between the two of them.

“You also have to think about Master Kang Seung-geon’s ability. If he uses his ability recklessly and the surrounding buildings or the ground collapses, the damage will be severe.”

“Uum. You’re right.”

Hong Si-ah, who was patting her lips as if worried about those words, said to Cha Soo-yeon.

“Soo-yeon-ah, just in case, you wait here. If the ground shakes or the building is about to collapse, contact the management headquarters and help to evacuate the civilians.”

“…I got it.”

Cha Soo-yeon thought about it for a moment and then nodded her head. Since there were Cheon Sa-yeon and Hong Si-ah, it seemed that there was no need to intervene.

Woo Seo-hyuk, who was watching the scene, opened his mouth.

“Master. I will remain here.”

“Yeah. It would be better to have a healer on standby just in case. Contact Healer Min Ah-rin.”

“I understand.”

At the end of that command, Cheon Sa-yeon moved to the entrance without hesitation. After that, Kim Woo-jin quickly followed.

“Then I will go too. Just in case, be careful.”

“Yes.”

“Okay.”

After looking at Woo Seo-hyuk, who called Min Ah-rin, and Cha Soo-yeon, who had a very worried expression, looked at Hong Si-ah, who also followed Cheon Sa-yeon into the building.

The inside of the empty building was much larger than expected. Hong Si-ah, who was walking looking inside a little dark because there were not many windows, squeezed the whip at the sound of heels coming from the other side.

Clack. Clack.

Squeak.

A tall woman in a miniskirt and red shoes appeared who opened the door, which was painted white like the wall. In line with the appearance, Cheon Sa-yeon cut his palm deeper than usual.

Patter.

Drops of blood splattered on the concrete floor and bright red flames fluttered. The blood on the slim blade was embracing fire and dripping like lava.
