41. Rune of the Inner Heart
“f*ck you, f*ck you, f*ck you, f*ck you, f*ck you…!”
Jang Seok-hyeon, who kept swearing, glared at me with wide eyes.
The opponent who hit his vital point.
“I’ll k*ll you. I’ll k*ll you, you b*stard.”
The female boss ran away, but that was probably a good thing.
Sexual desire has long since disappeared.
It only shines with a desire to kill the person in front of it.
“You have a good attitude. If you had given in easily, I would have been more embarrassed.”
The other person’s voice was very light, as if this situation was fun.
I don’t know if it was an illusion, but it seemed like I could even hear laughter.
Jang Seok-hyeon ran forward despite the pain.
If I were an ordinary person, I wouldn’t have been able to stand up, but I could move as a player.
‘If you get close, that guy will be like that!’
It’s not a big deal as long as the distance is close.
Fortunately, the guy didn’t move like a tree.
‘Stupid bastard!’
A dagger was suddenly summoned in Jang Seok-hyeon’s right hand.
He swung his dagger at random.
Shoo shoo shoo!
I was confident that I could pierce a goblin’s neck with skill.
but.
The opponent was skilled enough to cut out an eye with a sickle.
With the inferior stats of level 9, it was nearly impossible to graze the collar of an opponent who was level 30.
‘You’re avoiding all of this?’
Predicts and avoids dagger stabs from close range like a ghost.
Even if you stab it to the left, stab it to the right, cut it diagonally, and throw all sorts of bullshit at it, it only cuts into the air.
“You’re still holding a goblin’s dagger or something.”
The person who spoke harshly swung the sickle downward.
Jang Seok-hyeon, who tripped over the pole and fell, frowned.
Pain radiates from the center.
“Ugh.”
“Are you in pain?”
The other person, Ryumin, smiled behind his mask.
“We haven’t even started yet.”
The scythe flashed and Jang Seok-hyeon’s wrist fell off.
“Quaaaah!”
“I’m going to kill you.”
Ryumin swung the sickle and cut off the other wrist.
In fact, it became impossible to hold a weapon.
“Keueueueu…….”
Did he decide that there was no hope for him to continue like this?
Jang Seok-hyeon’s body, which stood up while enduring pain, glowed white.
No, I tried luminescence.
“uh?”
However, Jang Seok-hyeon was embarrassed when the light did not radiate.
‘Uh, what happened? ‘Why doesn’t this work?!’
The hand was cut off, but both feet were intact.
If you use your luminescence ability to blind your opponent, you will be able to escape.
‘I’m sure I used it, but why!’
However, there was no reaction from the body, as if the ability had disappeared.
Just like before, there is only darkness without a single light in sight.
Ryu Min laughed inwardly at Jang Seok-hyeon’s embarrassed appearance.
‘No matter how much I shine, it’s no use. ‘No light is allowed in the face of the night of death.’
Knowing this would happen, I installed the Night of Death skill in advance.
Jang Seok-hyeon’s runes are now useless.
‘If I hadn’t learned the Night of Death skill after passing level 20, I would have been the one to suffer.’
Most likely, he would have been blinded and suffered blindness.
Even if I closed my eyes beforehand, I wouldn’t have been able to stop him from running away.
‘Well, I would have cut off my ankles before I could do that.’
While thinking about it, Ryu Min swung his sickle.
Suddenly!
Jang Seok-hyun falls awkwardly with an eerie sound.
Only when he sees his severed ankle does he scream out belatedly.
“Keu, hehehehehehe!!!”
“You can’t run away now, right?”
Jang Seok-hyeon, who lost his wrists, ankles, and all important parts, cried out in a voice full of sorrow.
“Sigh, you devil! Why are you doing this to me, why?!”
“Why are you doing this?”
Deep!
“Whoosh!”
The scythe got stuck in my thigh and came out.
“What would be the point of getting rid of bugs?”
Deep!
The other thigh was also pierced by the sickle.
“Because if you leave it alone, it will cause harm.”
“Ugh……f*ck you, perverted psycho bastard.”
Ryu Min actually laughed at Jang Seok-hyeon’s glaring eyes.
“We’ll see how long that momentum lasts.”
Ryumin’s scythe was merciless.
Like slowly tormenting a bug by tearing its legs off one by one.
The limbs were cut off and holes were made in the body.
Blood spread like a carpet around Jang Seok-hyeon.
A hopeless situation in which you cannot light up or escape.
“Uuuuuu….”
Jang Seok-hyun couldn’t come to his senses, feeling like his brain was being marinated in pain.
‘f*ck… … Why are you doing this to me? ‘You have some kind of grudge against me?’
It was unfair.
And it was painful.
‘If I’m going to be treated like this, should I bite my tongue and die?’
The moment I was about to stick my tongue out thinking that would be better.
chin-
Jang Seok-hyeon’s head was raised by Ryu Min’s scythe.
“Why? Are you going to bite your tongue and die?”
“…….”
I couldn’t open my mouth because the blade was holding the tip of my chin.
“Do you think I’ll just let you go?”
“…….”
“You cannot die freely until you beg to be killed.”
The scythe moved like lightning and cut twice in the back.
Sigh- Sigh-!
“Hwaaaah!”
Blood spurts out and pain comes.
‘Go, the pain must end.’
The moment when Jang Seok-hyeon desperately tried to stick out his tongue.
Ryumin’s blade lifted his chin again and covered his mouth.
Plop-plop-plop-!
“Ugh!”
Plop-plop-plop-!
“Uuuuuuu!!!”
While holes were being drilled in his body, Jang Seok-hyeon attempted suicide numerous times.
But every time, Ryumin recognized it like a ghost and made it impossible for him to move his mouth.
Squeak- Squeak-!
“Hugh!!”
I’m going crazy from the pain.
In Jang Seok-hyeon’s mind, the only thought was that he wanted to die.
“Zu, zu…gyeol…jo….”
“what?”
“Z… kill me… please….”
“Are you serious?”
Jang Seok-hyeon nodded.
I didn’t want to suffer any more.
Was that satisfactory?
Although it was covered by a mask, there was a pleasant smile on Ryumin’s lips.
“I don’t know why I’m doing this. You and I don’t even know each other.”
“…….”
“Actually, I can’t say we didn’t meet each other. Jang Seok-hyun. We’ve met before.”
A look of surprise passed through Jang Seok-hyeon’s eyes.
‘My name… … I know?’
Jang Seok-hyeon stuttered and opened his mouth.
“Well, it can’t be… related to the female boss….”
“That’s not true. I have nothing to do with that woman.”
“then…….”
“You kidnapped my sister. Then you threatened me and demanded information about the Hidden Piece.”
“Me, me? I didn’t do that….”
“Of course I didn’t. It’s something in the future that hasn’t happened yet. To me, it’s also something in the past.”
Regardless of whether Jang Seok-hyeon made an expression of confusion or not, Ryu Min continued speaking.
“If I hadn’t stepped forward, you probably would have gotten the Rune of the Inner Heart.”
“Inner heart… runes?”
“There are hidden runes hidden in this place.”
‘really?’
Jang Seok-hyeon’s eyes opened wide at the fact that he did not know.
“Do you know what the conditions for the manifestation of the Rune of the Inner Heart are? It is listening to the other person’s true voice.”
“True… voice…?”
“A voice that comes from the heart, with sincerity added to the sincerity.”
“…….”
“If I hadn’t come forward, you would have raped and tormented women and heard their true voices begging for their lives.”
“…….”
“And after obtaining the Rune of the Inner Heart, he probably used it even more for crimes and ran around as if it were his own world.”
Jang Seok-hyeon could not refute anything.
Because he knew exactly what his behavior patterns were.
“This is a fact that has already been verified several times. Even if it weren’t for that, you deserve to die just for the fact that you are trash with 12 criminal records.”
“Lord, if you deserve to die… please kill me quickly….”
Ryumin shook his head.
“I won’t touch you.”
“what……?”
“Why was I lingering all this time? I was just waiting for him to die on his own.”
chin-
Jang Seok-hyeon’s open mouth was closed by Ryu Min’s sickle.
“You will die from excessive bleeding anyway. Feel the pain like this and die slowly.”
“Eup! Eup!”
Jang Seok-hyeon tried to commit suicide by sticking out his tongue, but it didn’t work out as he wanted.
The sickle was pressing on my jaw, so I couldn’t even open my mouth.
“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu….”
Even if I stayed still, I felt constant pain through holes in my entire body.
Even if you want to break the chain of pain right away, you can’t.
‘I want you to kill me quickly… … It’s so painful… … .’
I couldn’t even get the words out of my mouth that the other person wanted me to kill.
‘They say I need to get the Rune of the Inner Heart. They say we must listen to the true voice that comes from the heart!’
Since I couldn’t speak, I had to look with sad eyes.
‘You’re trying to say whatever you want! You’re seriously trying to tell me to kill you! But why don’t you let me talk!’
Did you read Jang Seok-hyun’s eyes like that?
“Why don’t you let me talk?”
Ryumin answered this.
“Because I wanted to test the inner rune.”
‘what?’
I didn’t read your eyes.
“Sorry, but I already got the runes.”
It was reading thoughts.
“Don’t you remember? You already told me to kill you. Seriously.”
‘Now that I think about it, I think I said that at first… … .’
“At that time, the rune responded to the true voice. I was able to obtain it immediately. The rune of my inner heart.”
‘Pretending not to know even though you already got it… … .’
“I did a performance test once, and as you can see, it works well.”
‘I got what I wanted, so now it’s good to kill… … .’
“No. You shouldn’t die easily.”
Ryumin spoke in a cold voice beneath his mask.
“Because that would be unfair to the people who were harmed by you.”
‘X haircut, devilish bastard… … .’
Jang Seok-hyun, who uttered his last curse as if in desperation, trembled.
His consciousness seemed to be fading, his eyes were hazy, and after a while he stopped breathing.
Ryumin, who saw that, said indifferently.
“He’s dead.”
A brief impression.
There was no emotion in that voice.
I’ve killed dozens of times so far, so it was worth it.
“Still, it would be better for the victim to inflict maximum pain and kill each time.”
Even if it takes some time.
‘Because I have a lot of time anyway.’
I got the rune I wanted.
There was time to relax like this.
I was worried that the woman who saved me might not run away and watch me.
‘There were no witnesses around.’
There was no target detected by presence detection.
You can rest assured.
‘I wore a mask anyway, so it doesn’t matter if I get caught.’
Ryumin’s eyes turned to the message that came to mind a moment ago.
[A sincere voice was brought out from the other party.]
[The activation conditions have been met.]
[You have discovered the ‘Rune of the Inner Heart’, a hidden rune hidden in that location!]
[The acquired runes are automatically imprinted on the player’s body!]
This was the message that came to mind as soon as I heard Jang Seok-hyeon ask me to kill him.
Ryumin opened the information on the newly acquired rune.
[Rune of Inner Heart]
-Effect: Reads the thoughts of the object in front of you. If you look closely, you can vaguely read the inner thoughts. It can only be read when you are within a maximum of 30m.
It is literally a rune that reads thoughts.
If you keep watching, you can see through their inner thoughts.
‘Even if the other person is thoughtless.’
Obtaining information, coping with situations, identifying enemies, etc.
The uses are endless.
It is not included in the list of 18 runes that must be obtained for nothing.
Ryu Min’s gaze turned to Jang Seok-hyeon, who had gone to the other world.
“I got what I wanted, so let’s clean up after ourselves.”
Additional common skills learned were used.
OK.
Jang Seok-hyeon’s body disappeared like a lie.
