Episode 233.
An unidentified man wearing a yellow fox mask appears from beyond the darkness.
In fact, it wasn’t even clear whether he was a man or not.
“Kirrrrrrrr!”
Because the only thing I could guess from that crazy laugh was that it was a male.
What is the identity?
Whether male or female.
None of it was certain.
But one thing is certain, he was not in his right mind.
“Did you see me? Did you see me? Really?”
The man in the fox mask said, giggling.
In that laughter, I felt a madness that dyed my mind red.
No, wait.
…Madness?
Siwoo looked at the fox mask quietly.
I sharpened my senses and examined the fox mask.
‘…not human.’
Not human.
It looked human on the outside, but inside it wasn’t human.
It’s definitely not the kind of energy you feel from a human being.
But it wasn’t an unfamiliar feeling.
It was an energy that Siwoo had once felt.
Evil that stimulates one’s inner instincts.
Lilith.
The demon that tried to take control of Han Chae-rin’s body during the disaster in Seoul.
The energy I felt from the fox mask now was quite similar to Lilith’s energy.
Thus, Siwoo was able to guess the identity of the fox mask.
“devil….”
Devil.
That fox mask is not human, it’s a demon.
“and!!!”
The fox mask screamed in surprise.
The expression hidden behind the mask was not visible.
But the voice that came out was filled with surprise.
“How did you know? How did you know? Huh? How did you know I was the devil??”
The fox mask asked loudly.
I wonder if he has no intention of hiding his identity.
Or maybe there is no need to hide it.
“Then do you know what my name is? If you know that I’m a devil, then you’ll know what my name is, right? Okay? Guess what! What~~~ is my name?”
The fox mask said playfully, as if asking a quiz.
Siwoo didn’t give any answer.
I just knew that he was a devil.
Because I couldn’t even tell what kind of demon it was.
To be honest, it wasn’t even a confirmed fact that he was a devil.
That would be the case, given the fox mask’s behavior now.
“Don’t you know? Don’t you know what my name is?”
It could not be ruled out that it was a trick to confuse Si-woo by pretending to be a devil.
“Shall I teach you? Shall I teach you? Teach me?”
The fox mask giggled and rolled its eyes.
But that was only for a moment.
“No no.”
The fox mask shook its head.
“Then the stingy raccoon will get angry. Listen carefully. The stingy raccoon is stingy, so─. Keuhihihihi!”
Suddenly the fox mask burst into laughter.
I covered my mouth with both hands to keep myself from laughing.
But he shrugged his shoulders as if he couldn’t stand it any longer.
“You stingy raccoon, you’re stingy! You stingy raccoon, you’re sooo stingy!”
Kyahahahahahahaha!
Crazy fox.
It was a sight that made me think that way on my own.
So there was no reason to listen to that crazy talk any longer.
Crunch!
Siwoo grabbed the Orihalcon Gauntlet.
Whether the fox mask’s true identity is a devil or something else.
Whether or not you are sane.
First of all, entering the dungeon without permission probably didn’t have good intentions.
Crunch!
With the clenched fist, the power of monstrous strength (SS) surged throughout his body.
“Fight? Fight me? Hahahahaha!”
Then the fox mask burst into laughter.
The insane laughter was also accompanied by a hint of humor.
“No. No. You can’t fight me.”
The fox mask shook its head.
Naturally, Siwoo didn’t care.
“Do you know why it doesn’t work?”
But inside the face hidden by the mask.
“Because your pretty little sister is in danger!”
For a moment, Siwoo’s movements suddenly stopped.
At the same time, Siwoo’s expression hardened.
“Keuhihihihi! Kihihihihihihihi!”
The fox mask burst into laughter as if it was dying of laughter.
“Do you know anything about this?”
After a while, the fox mask asked Siwoo.
At the same time, saaaa …
The gentle energy of nature could be felt from the fox mask.
A power that is quite familiar to Siwoo.
“Taegeuk?”
It was the power of Taegeuk (SS).
The power that the fox mask was using now was clearly the power of the Taegeuk (SS) that Si-woo was using.
But how do you do that…?
“Wow! You really have incredible strength!”
The fox mask screamed in surprise.
surprised?
Is it not your own strength?
“But it’s strange. It doesn’t replicate completely.”
Soon the fox mask took on a sullen expression.
Of course, his expression was not visible because it was covered by the mask, but that was the feeling he had.
And the word replication.
It reminded Siwoo of someone he had forgotten.
“… Lee Ye-jun?”
S-class hunter, Lee Ye-jun.
Lee Ye-jun, who came to steal the Orichalcon Gauntlet from Si-woo the other day.
However, Lee Ye-jun’s whereabouts are unknown after he was beaten by Han Chae-rin.
That Lee Ye-jun’s personality was exactly that copy.
“Hahahahahahaha!”
The fox mask caused a burst of laughter.
He shouted with a look of joy on his face as if he was going crazy over the current situation.
“You made a contract with me! You said you wanted to kill me, so I made a contract with you! It’s only natural to make a contract with a demon to gain more power!!”
Keeheeheeheehee!
The laughter of the fox mask is heard.
There was a pitch-black madness permeating it.
* * *
SH Hospital’s lounge.
The lounge, which was larger than a sports field, naturally brought to mind the words, “This is the best hospital in Korea.”
And as expected, it is the number one hospital in Korea.
“There are always a lot of people here no matter when I come.”
The large lounge was crowded with people.
Kim Yi-jun shook his head once and walked towards the special ward.
That moment.
“I’m sorry, but patients in the special ward are not allowed to have visitors other than those permitted.”
The nurse in the special room blocked Kim Yi-jun’s path.
Kim Yi-jun said, waving his hand slightly.
“I am not a suspicious person. I am on friendly terms with Brother Siwoo.”
“What is your name?”
“This is Kim Lee Jun.”
In response to Kim Yi-jun’s answer, the nurse began to look at the computer chart.
And for a moment.
“I’m sorry, but your name is not on the visitation list.”
“…yes?”
Kim Yi-jun wondered if he had heard correctly.
Your name isn’t on the visitation list?
“Oh, that can’t be. Could you please check it again?”
Kim Yi-jun shouted in panic.
The nurse knocked again.
“No matter how many times I look for it, I can’t find the name Kim Lee Jun.”
He just shook his head firmly.
“T, why is this….”
Kim Yi-jun said again that there was absolutely no way that would happen.
“There seems to have been a mistake. I think you forgot my name….”
“I’m sorry, but we cannot allow visitors unless they are authorized.”
“… … .”
Kim Yi-jun had nothing to say.
Well, I guess I can’t complain if I’m not on the list.
He was Siwoo’s cameraman though….
There was no certificate or qualification that proved that he was a cameraman for the Seongnam Channel.
“…All right.”
Kim Yi-jun eventually had no choice but to turn back.
At that time, I was walking back with a thumping pace.
“You can’t just go in there!”
There was a huge commotion on one side.
When I turned my head and looked there, there was a man trying to enter the special ward.
The nurses around him tried to dissuade him, but the man paid no attention.
“Can’t you hear me!? I told you not to go in without permission!”
Eventually, the bodyguards came out and blocked the man’s path.
Still, the man didn’t care.
He pretended not to hear and just walked towards the special ward.
“If you do this, we will have no choice but to use force.”
The bodyguards, unable to bear it any longer, grabbed the man’s arms.
That moment.
“Dangerous!”
Kim Yi-jun ran towards them, shouting loudly.
At the same time, crunch─!
With a strong crashing sound!
Bright red blood spurted out like a fountain.
“What, what is it…!”
“Gyaaaaaaah!!”
The ward suddenly became a scene of chaos.
People in the ward started running away in panic.
“What is this….”
The bodyguards who tried to stop the man were confused.
I didn’t understand what was happening.
“Ugh…!”
Finally, a groan of excruciating pain was heard.
The bodyguards came to their senses only after discovering Kim Yi-jun bleeding from his severed arm.
“Hey, are you okay?”
“What happened all of a sudden…?”
Blood poured from the severed arm, forming a puddle on the floor.
Kim Yi-jun bit his teeth and drew out the power of super regeneration.
Gulp.
The severed arm regenerated and the bleeding stopped.
“You have good power.”
And then an unidentified voice was heard.
Only then was Kim Yi-jun able to see the root cause of this situation.
He was a man who was both unfamiliar and familiar.
“Hey, Lee Ye-jun?”
S-class hunter, Lee Ye-jun.
“Why on earth are you…?”
Kim Yi-jun shouted in embarrassment.
However, Lee Ye-jun did not give an appropriate answer.
Thud.
Lee Ye-jun grabbed Kim Yi-jun by the nape of his neck.
“Kuaaaaaaah!!”
Kim Yi-jun screamed in unbearable pain.
It wasn’t just the pain of having my neck crushed.
A pain that feels as if the life force is being sucked away.
That shook Kim Yi-jun’s mind.
“Kkaaaaaaah!”
Kim Yi-jun’s mind was on the verge of breaking.
I tried to escape the grasping grip, but for some reason I couldn’t.
My mind is getting clouded more and more.
And then, at the moment when I was about to completely lose consciousness.
Crunch─!
A sharp cutting sound was faintly heard.
At the same time, ssuk, thump.
Lee Ye-jun’s arm, which was holding on to Kim Yi-jun, was cut off and fell to the floor.
“Ugh…! Ugh…!”
Only then was Kim Yi-jun able to breathe the breath of life.
In front of such Kim Yi-jun, a woman of mysterious age appeared.
Pink hospital gown.
A beauty with black hair that looks like neatly combed ebony.
“Ha, Sister Han Chae-rin?”
Han Chae-rin silently blocked Kim Yi-jun’s path.
There wasn’t even a word asking if it was okay.
He just stood there with a face so cold it was chilling.
Han Chae-rin’s cold gaze was fixed solely on Lee Ye-jun.
“Kukukukuk…!”
Lee Ye-jun burst into a bitter laugh.
Blood was continuously gushing out from Lee Ye-jun’s severed arm.
Did he go crazy from the pain?
“Hahahahahahahaha!”
Lee Ye-jun burst into laughter.
It seemed like he was enjoying this situation so much.
For a moment, I wondered why he was doing that.
Gulp.
The cut surface of Lee Ye-jun’s severed arm boiled over.
Soon, new flesh and bone were created and the severed arm was restored.
“play…!”
Kim Yi-jun shouted in surprise.
Moreover, it wasn’t just a replay.
Absolute power to instantly restore a severed body.
Super regeneration.
It was the same strength as Kim Yi-jun’s personality.
“Oh, how…!”
Kim Yi-jun shouted in embarrassment.
Are you saying that you’ve grafted some personality onto him like some crazy guy from the past?
But Lee Ye-jun did not answer.
Han Chae-rin also didn’t say much.
He just raised his sword without saying a word.
At the same time, saaaa… .
A gentle breeze blew.
The wind that brushed my face contained the energy of Mother Nature.
I don’t know what kind of power it is.
For some reason, Kim Yi-jun could only vaguely recognize that it was a familiar force.
That’s why Kim Yi-jun was sure of one thing.
“This, this is…”
It is a power that cannot be called human power.
That is why it is a power that humans cannot do anything about.
I can confidently say that even an S-class hunter would not be able to do anything about it.
It wasn’t like this until recently.
The Han Chae-rin that Kim Yi-jun knew wasn’t at this level.
Are you saying that in that short period of time, you surpassed an S-class hunter?
Kim Yi-jun could immediately understand why Han Chae-rin was called the genius of the century.
That’s why even Lee Ye-jun can’t do anything about this.
Lee Ye-jun is also a S-class hunter.
It is called the pinnacle of humanity, but in the end it is just the ‘pinnacle of humanity.’
Saaaa …
Now, Han Chae-rin’s power has surpassed that of humans.
“Kukukukukuk… . Hahahahahahaha!!”
However, Lee Ye-jun’s smile did not fade.
Instead, it had transformed into a mad laughter.
“That’s funny.”
Lee Ye-jun’s smile is gleaming with malice.
And for a moment.
Saaaa… .
A gentle breeze blew.
The wind brushing my face.
It contained the energy of Mother Nature.
And it wasn’t a power that came from Han Chae-rin.
“… … !”
Han Chae-rin’s eyes opened wide.
Kim Yi-jun also opened his eyes wide.
“This…!”
Same, power.
The power felt from none other than Lee Ye-jun.
It was the same power as Han Chae-rin’s power.
On the other hand, it was also another force.
Truly a great evil.
Lee Ye-jun could no longer be considered human.
“how…!”
Kim Yi-jun burst out in shock.
This is completely different from the last time with the crazy man.
This is truly… .
Kwaaaa …
A stronger force bit off Han Chae-rin’s strength.
Can’t… win.
It was a thought that suddenly occurred to Kim Yi-jun.
“Hah…!”
Han Chae-rin’s momentum is being pushed back.
Red blood flowed down from the corner of Han Chae-rin’s mouth as she cried out.
In between, trudging.
“Did you humiliate me with just this much power?”
Lee Ye-jun approaches.
It was as if fear was coming in the form of a physical thing.
Kim Yi-jun couldn’t move his body in the face of this overwhelming fear.
Han Chae-rin, who was watching, was also trembling and unable to move.
Ugh!
Kim Yi-jun chewed the flesh inside his cheek.
My stiff body began to loosen up little by little as the dizzying pain and the pungent scent of blood spread.
We have to move.
Something must be done.
But can I…?
It was the moment when Kim Yi-jun took forced steps toward Lee Ye-jun.
Krrrrrr!!
A howl that brushes past my ears.
A small black puppy ran past Kim I-Jun.
