“What?”
“Who are you?”
Seol-Hwi had appeared only 2 feet away, startling them.
“…Captain?”
It felt to Seol-Hwi that even though her voice trembled, it hadn’t lost its dignity.
It made him angry.
“Hah.”
The weak were being trampled. After dying over and over again, Seol-Hwi only despised it more.
What little of his rationality hadn’t been swallowed by his anger wasn’t interested in negotiating.
“Nice weather,” he spat. “Feels good.”
The system was like a chance and a curse. It honestly felt like it was making fun of him right now.
“Hey, who are you?”
“Answer us, fool!”
Seol-Hwi checked to make sure he had his tiger mask on before he spoke.
“One of you will die here. I plan on keeping the other one alive. Why? No reason in particular, I just thought it would be fun to make one of you grovel under .”
He didn’t get a reply, but Seol-Hwi knew what they had to be thinking as they eyed him: They had the advantage in this fight, but if he could sneak up on them like that they had to be a bit wary of him. But since Seol-Hwi wasn’t wearing a Hidden Truth uniform, they’d think he’s an outsider.
Combat Mode:
Seol chose turn-based mode for the enemy’s safety, not his own good. If he used simulation mode, he’d kill them before he had the chance to make them hurt.
Seol-Hwi [Vice-Captain of the Hidden Truth Corps] Health: 710k Internal Energy: 1.21 million Coins: 2 Grandmaster Combat Power: 5.91 million
The ti had co.
He caught Kyu Yeon stepping towards him before the window appeared.
[Warning! Kyu Yeon has found a weakness in Seol-Hwi. How will you respond?] ▶ Counterattack ▷ Defend ▷ Run Away
Seol-Hwi wasn’t worried at all, just a little annoyed.
Kyu Yeon sprung towards him. Seol-Hwi saw it and didn’t hesitate. He thought it was a good chance to practice the synergy between the Peak Flourishing Demonic Martial Arts and the Fiery Bare-Handed Demonic Martial Arts. Fortunately, he was fast enough to pull it off.
Seol-Hwi’s fist collided with Kyu Yeon’s with a deafening roar. The flas on Seol-Hwi’s hand hungrily spread to Kyu Yeon’s body.
“Ah! Ah! Ahhhhhhh!” Kyu Yeon grabbed his broken hand and scread. The tongues of fla biting at his body made it even worse, as the windows confird.
[Critical hit! Inflicted 1.8 million damage to Kyu Yeon.] Kyu Yeon [Private Guards 4th mber] Health: 1.52 million/3.32 million(↓1.8 million)
The difference was huge. His health, which was originally higher than Seol-Hwi’s, had dropped drastically. The fact that he knocked down Kyu Yeon in one hit was, frankly, surprising, even knowing the difference in their combat power. Seol-Hwi wasn’t done, though.
[Found a weakness in Kyu Yeon. How would you like to respond?] ▶ Attack ▷ Use Martial Arts ▷ Use Toolbox ▷ Approach the Opponent
“Urk! Agh! Ackkkk!”
As soon as Seol-Hwi saw Kyu Yeon, he imdiately popped him with his fist. It wasn’t a technique, just a simple punch, but it sent internal energy crashing into Kyu Yeon. Kyu Yeon took it right in the face and went bouncing back, tumbling head over heels through the air.
[Critical hit! Inflicted major damage to Kyu Yeon] Kyu Yeon [Private Guards 4th mber] Health: 530k/3.32 million(↓990k)
The damage was stacking up. Kyu Yeon flopped over, unconscious and slack-jawed.
“Don’t play dead.” Seol-Hwi walked over and grabbed him by the hair. “I’m not done with you.”
[Warning! Kang Seok found a weakness in Seol-Hwi. How will you respond?]
Seol-Hwi wasn’t shocked. Of course the other man would attempt a surprise attack.
▶ Counterattack ▷ Defend ▷ Run Away
Seol-Hwi had a sudden bright idea.
There was still a bit of ti before Kang Seok reached him, and now that he decided to defend instead of attack…
Kang Seok struck perfectly. His sword stabbed deep—but not into the man with the tiger mask.
“Incredible. You went straight for your own comrade.”
“W-What?”
Seol-Hwi was enjoying himself.
“It won’t be easy to get out of this. This sword is all the proof people will need.”
Kang Seok’s face was painted with shock and disbelief and a fleeting flash of fear.
“I said one of you would die, but I didn’t say I’d do it with my own hands.”
“You—”
Kang Seok didn’t get to finish his sentence.
[A great opportunity! Found a weakness in Kyu Yeon. How would you like to respond?] ▶ Attack ▷ Use Martial Arts ▷ Use Toolbox ▷ Approach the Opponent
He chose south, placing him right behind the enemy.
“I bet people call you an asshole all the ti, right?”
“Ack!” Kang Seok swung around, but he was too slow. Seol-Hwi smacked him in the stomach, tipping him off balance. Seol-Hwi then punched him in the face, dodged gracefully around his sword, and then punched him in the face again.
“Ugh!”
Seol-Hwi dodged around Kang Seok’s blade again and hit his face a little harder.
Kang Seok [Private Guards 3rd mber] Health: 2.98 million/2.99 million(↓10k)
The damage was minor, but Kang Seok backed away.
“You—eh!” Blood dripped down his nose, reminding him of the insult. “You fucking bastard!”
Seol-Hwi didn’t know if Kang Seok had a thod of drawing out internal energy better than what Seol-Hwi knew, which was why Seol-Hwi was only using normal punches.
“So boring.”
Combat mode:
He changed the combat mode because there was nothing else like it for dealing with the enemy.
