107. What is your name?
Before Yamti kidnapped the National Assembly member.
Ryumin, disguised as a roast yak, was worried.
When should we save National Assembly member Lee Seong-hyun?
‘It would be better to rescue her after she has been kidnapped.’
If we had to clean up Yamti and the rest of the gang early and make the kidnapping something that never happened, who would know?
‘This is an opportunity. An opportunity to make the name of Black Scythe known to the public.’
Black Scythe is only famous among players, and the public doesn’t even know what he does.
There are also voices that harshly criticize players.
‘Rep. Lee Seong-hyun is leading the way with such voices. They say that only criminal players are bad.’
Ryumin knew because he had become acquainted with him in the past.
What happened to his only son and how he feels about the player.
Therefore, I understood Seonghyun Lee better than anyone else and knew what the right direction was.
‘I need to put it back. Rep. Lee Seong-hyun’s twisted gaze.’
I wanted to make players realize that not all are bad.
I wanted to let players know that if they use their abilities in the right way, there is nothing better than this.
‘That way, when I step forward as the player’s representative in the future, I will be able to gain support from the general public.’
If Rep. Lee Seong-hyun helps, the general public will gladly give up their hands to Black Scythe.
Therefore, Ryumin needed to change his perspective and did not take action until he was kidnapped.
No, it was moving quietly behind the scenes.
Following Song Jae-gyeom, the chairman of Playseva.
‘The point at which Lee Seong-hyun became dangerous was when the six criminals hired by the chairman began to appear.’
When criminals publicly execute Seong-Hyeon Lee, Pliseva’s scenario is to deal with the criminals by pretending to show up to save them belatedly.
So, if criminals don’t show up at the cabin, Lee Seong-hyun doesn’t have to worry about dying.
This was why Ryu Min used invisibility and followed Song Jae-gyeom.
Because his role was to pick up red-lined criminals.
“Hey, boss. Are you really going to pay me three times as much after the work is done?”
“That’s right.”
“It’s not like they suddenly started running away, right?”
Song Jae-gyeom grinned while looking at the anxious criminals.
“If you can’t do it, tell me now. Please transfer the 25 million won I gave you back.”
“Haha, Won, you’re quick-tempered. Just ask.”
“When did we say we wouldn’t do it?”
“In today’s world, killing one person is no problem.”
Stories about money flowed from the mouths of the criminals who were grinning.
Anyway, my life is ruined by drawing a red line.
Most people thought that killing one person and making 100 million won would be cheap.
‘Tsk, wherever you go, whether it’s a player or an ordinary person, there’s bound to be trash.’
If Ma Gyeong-rok were here, he would probably drool.
While thinking such useless thoughts, Ryumin waited for the right moment.
Deeuun-
As if the time had come, I received a call from Song Jae-gyeom.
“Yes, yes, Yamti. I understand. I will take you now.”
After finishing the call, Song Jae-gyeom gave instructions to his bodyguards.
“Pick up all the personnel here and follow us.”
“Yes, I understand… Ugh!”
The bodyguard collapsed without being able to reply.
“What are you doing, gagging!”
Same goes for other bodyguards.
He was hit on the back of the neck by Ryumin and passed out.
It’s almost pointless to be a player.
Song Jae-gyeom and the criminals were surprised by Ryu Min’s sudden intervention.
In particular, Song Jae-gyeom’s voice, whose face I knew, was loud.
“Lost Yak?!”
“Alright, Chairman, please pass out now.”
Clap-clap.
Ryu Min, who had already knocked the Chairman unconscious, looked at the criminals.
“What are you guys going to do?”
“Hey, hey!”
When they realized that it was not a human movement, they ran away.
‘Pfft, player! You can never win!’
The criminals knew.
Even if you, an ordinary person, tried to fight against the player, it would be like hitting a rock with an egg.
“We can’t just let those who conspired to commit murder go away.”
Seogeokeuk- Seogeokeuk-!
Ryumin took out a sickle and instantly reduced the six people to a lump of blood.
‘I don’t want these guys to hold me back.’
In any case, the criminals were killed by Plseva.
I didn’t know that I would die without even receiving the down payment.
Ryu Min cleaned up the scene by erasing traces and drove away with the unconscious chairman.
Then, he put it down in an appropriate place, like abandoning a body.
‘It doesn’t matter if the chairman wakes up later. The situation will have already been sorted out by then.’
Ryumin drove to the hut, the meeting place.
Once inside, the three new executives recognize the senior and bow their heads.
“Hello? Senior.”
“Uh, yes. Has Yamti arrived yet?”
“Yes. They say he will be arriving soon with a doctor.”
“Okay. I’m watching outside as planned.”
While I was watching outside, I saw Yamti arrive with the doctor.
‘You’re finally here.’
What to do from then on was simple.
All you have to do is break inside and save the National Assembly member.
‘All the executives are killed. Except Yamti.’
The reason for not killing Yamti was simple.
‘If I make Yamti on my side, Plseva will naturally become mine too.’
Nominally, the leader of Plseba is the chairman, but the real man behind the scenes is Yamti.
If you can turn Yamti to your side, you can even bring Plseva under your command.
‘Moreover, a powerful tool called the Rune of Enchantment is created.’
Yamti’s rune of fascination is powerful enough to rival the district representative’s control.
‘No, it’s better than that. There is no limit to level, and anyone can dominate, whether they are a player or an ordinary person.’
It was so powerful that Ryumin was unable to approach Yamti during that time.
How do you deal with people being captivated just by looking at them?
‘Of course it’s not difficult to kill. All you have to do is approach it with transparency and brush it off.’
But from the beginning, Ryumin had no intention of killing Yamti.
Because it is more practical to use it rather than kill it.
‘That’s why 7 rounds of runes were needed.’
Thanks to the mental barrier rune, I was able to face Yamti.
‘Although the rune of fascination is powerful, it cannot penetrate the rune of the mental barrier.’
Ryumin eventually entered the hut and killed the three new executives.
And he threatened Yamti to make him lose the charm of the National Assembly member.
Yamti was saved as planned.
However, using the ruling power in front of the National Assembly could cause misunderstandings, so Yamti had to be lured outside.
‘Since he wants to live, I guess I’ll have to say I’ll let him live.’
When Ryumin showed Yamti remorse, he released him as if saving him.
Then, he disguised himself and escaped and followed Yamti through invisibility.
I followed them, maintaining a distance of more than 30 meters to avoid being detected.
“I’ve never seen such a hot guy in my life. Giggle.”
Ryumin was convinced by the sight of Yamti laughing at him.
You can never control people with threats alone.
‘Then there is only one way.’
Ryumin used his power to dominate reality, which can only be used once, on Yamti.
‘It’s not a pity. Controlling Yamti is like gaining additional control.’
Rather, it is better governance without restrictions than now.
“Yamti. Be my slave.”
As Yamti’s eyes became hazy, a message came to mind.
[All control that can be used in reality has been exhausted.]
[Temporary Skill – Dominion]
-Opportunities remaining: 8
-Used by: Black Scythe, Yamti
[The remaining dominance can be used in the other world.]
[The temporary skill ‘Dominion’ disappears from the skill window.]
As a result, a powerful tool called the Rune of Enchantment and a force called Plseba were created.
They all came under Ryu Min’s command.
“It is an honor to meet you, master.”
Yamti lowers her head in a humble posture.
“Please give me an order, master. I will do whatever you tell me….”
“First of all, don’t ever say you’re the owner. Don’t even bow your head to me in front of other people. I’m just saying, act naturally.”
“Oh, I understand.”
“If someone sees it, they might look at it strangely, so don’t even talk about it.”
“Ah Okay.”
Although I didn’t say anything, I was convinced after reading his inner thoughts.
‘You really think of me as your master.’
It has completely become its own servant.
“You run straight this way. The police will arrive soon. Tell the chairman that Lost Yak was a traitor.”
“I understand… uh, Master. Oh, no, Black Scythe?”
“Don’t even mention the word ‘black scythe’. I will kill you.”
“Oh. I’m sorry, no, I’m sorry.”
A troubled look appeared on Yamti’s face.
“Then what should I call you from now on…?”
“Call my name. It’s Ryumin.”
The corners of Ryumin’s mouth rose.
* * *
‘I can’t believe I was kidnapped.’
As soon as he opened his eyes, Seonghyun Lee was able to quickly assess the situation.
Memories before fainting, the conversation with the woman upon arriving here, and his body tied to the chair.
Considering all the factors, the only conclusion we can come to is kidnapping.
Of course, it is clear who kidnapped them.
‘The woman. That woman kidnapped me.’
You may not know, but if you look at the force with which you are knocked down, it will be clear that it is a player.
‘They probably kidnapped me in retaliation for the bill I introduced.’
He was certain that the only person who could threaten him was the player.
Didn’t they assume this would be the case and hire bodyguards from the beginning?
‘I never thought those bodyguards would be defeated so easily. Damn it. ‘You guys aren’t even worth the money.’
It was then.
Squeak-
The cabin door opened and a man came in.
It was a bronze-skinned man who followed Yamti a little while ago.
‘That man. You said earlier that you came to save me. But what does she have to do with that woman?’
In terms of atmosphere, it didn’t seem like they were on the same side.
Because the woman was begging for her life.
However, that alone cannot be considered an ally.
That’s why I looked at it with wary eyes.
Who knows what might suddenly strike you in the back?
‘Maybe he’s not an ordinary person but a player.’
At that time, the man approached him and stretched out his hand.
Although Lee Seong-hyun flinched for a moment because he thought he was attacking.
Fighting- Fighting-
The man just grabbed the twine and ripped it off.
“I’m sorry for releasing this late. Assemblyman Lee Seong-hyun. I have something to conclude outside.”
“A knot? With that woman?”
“Yes. As you have seen, she is the main culprit of the kidnapping. I handled it well, so there is nothing to worry about.”
“…….”
As Seonghyun Lee was looking at him as if searching, Ryumin smiled.
“I’m sure you’re wondering what the situation is. I’ll tell you everything. Let’s get rid of the body first.”
When I used erase traces, the body disappeared.
“Huh.”
Lee Seong-hyun was surprised by the ability he saw for the first time, but was able to quickly regain his composure.
“You… a player.”
“Yes. I know you think of the player with contempt… but it’s a little sad that you look that way at the benefactor who saved your life.”
“You saved my life?”
Ryumin nodded and explained the situation in detail.
“As you can imagine, Senator, there are many players who are dissatisfied with you. The group here is one of them.”
Ryumin made up a story with a mix of truth and lies.
There was no need to say that Plseva had planned it.
“I received an offer from a player I knew, so I found out what the plan was.”
Even the details of setting up the vagabonds who kidnapped National Assembly member Lee Seong-hyun and lured him with money as villains and pretending to save them by claiming to be good actors.
When I explained everything, Seonghyun Lee’s eyes widened.
‘If you look at it in such detail, it doesn’t seem like it’s a lie… … .’
As evidence, Ryu Min even showed the itinerary and travel route he received.
“I never had any ill feelings toward the lawmaker. I didn’t think anything bad about the bill you proposed either. Rather, I thought it was a bill that was absolutely necessary in this day and age.”
“…….”
Seonghyun Lee felt strange.
Unlike himself, who despises players, there is a player in front of him who supports his bill.
“This is why I betrayed them. I didn’t want to let someone like you die in vain.”
“Then, the corpses we saw earlier….”
“Yes. They were the players who conspired to commit the crime, and I killed them all. I know their identities. If you want, I will tell you.”
“…….”
“I know what you will think. I will look like a murderer. Oh, yes, I am a murderer. But I have no intention of turning myself in.”
“Why? If you have committed a crime, you should turn yourself in.”
“There is still a lot of work to be done. There are only 13 rounds left. You won’t tell me, who is terminally ill, to spend the rest of my life in prison, right?”
“…….”
When I thought about it, I couldn’t possibly do that.
Even if it’s a player you despise, isn’t he a benefactor who saved your life?
“What do you want from me? If you want me to cancel the bill in return for saving you, you can never…”
“Please proceed with the bill. Please carry out your thoughts as is. That’s all I ask.”
“…….”
Honestly, I was surprised.
Because it’s the exact opposite of what I thought.
That was simply the reason he betrayed his comrades to save them.
“Is that all it is? Anything else….”
“I don’t want anything else. I just did what I thought was right and I am not opposed to your bill.”
“…….”
A player who supports his bill… … .
It was Lee Seong-hyun who felt ashamed for some reason.
“Anyway, thank you. If it’s true that you saved me, I can somehow reward you….”
At that time, I heard the sound of footsteps.
“I guess the police traced my phone and got here. I have to go now.”
‘You’re just going to leave like this?’
Ryu Min said goodbye, leaving behind Lee Seong-hyun, who was looking at him in surprise.
“It was nice talking to you. You can tell the police everything you saw and heard.”
“Now, wait a minute.”
Ryu Min, who was about to climb out the window, turned his head when Lee Seong-hyun called.
“What is your name?”
Seonghyun Lee looked at him as if he wanted to at least know the name of the person who saved him.
“My name is.”
Ryumin said with a slight smile.
“It’s a black scythe.”
