Chapter 91 – A Clash of Fate (1)

Clash of Destiny (1)

“Hey.”

Took-!

The iron pipe hitting Jang Deok-gu’s cheeks once again.

I asked Jang Deok-gu, who was shaking his cheeks.

“You asked me if I wanted to die.”
“…”

It wasn’t until then that his eyes urged him to answer, and his head jerked back.

Took-!

A lump of metal that catches the man who desperately shakes his head.

“Why.”

I asked quietly, looking down at the face that was covered in blood before I knew it.

“Why do I have to save you?”

The iron pipe that hit Deokgu Jang’s cheek pushed his face very violently.

Deokgu Jang staggers his face and body without any resistance.

It wasn’t until he stopped playing my metal pipe that I managed to keep my balance and opened my motherly lips.

“I-I am— Eugene is—.”

Deokgu Jang’s eyes naturally looked down as he mentioned Lee Yujin.

Jang Deok-gu, looking at the dead body of Lee Yu-jin, still left at the feet of the bastard, shook his eyes even more.

Gulp-

Jang Deok-gu, who was restless at Mokuldae, raised his eyes very carefully and stared at me again.

“No, that queen bee- I only did what the queen bee told me to do, director!”

The more he spoke, the more desperately his voice changed.

Tuk-tuk-

Without saying anything, more detailed explanations poured out like an answering machine into the iron pipe that hit the guy’s cheek.

“It was that crazy bitch who planned this crazy thing in the first place, and it was that crazy bitch who carried it out! I-I had no choice but to cooperate because that bitch threatened me with poison, Director!”

His hand, trembling with anxiety, continued to point his finger at the corpse lying beneath him.

“Didn’t you see the director, that bitch talked all the way and I didn’t say a word! I, I didn’t say a word, Director-!”

Jang Deok-gu’s hand slowly approaches as if expressing innocence and earnestness.

“…”

However, his hand that reacted to my lightly furrowed brow stopped in the air.

“I really didn’t do anything—! I just moved a few bugs as she threatened, Director!”
“Poisonous bugs?”
“Yes, yes! That’s right, manager! The one who killed the director’s camp members from beginning to end was the queen bee’s poison! My bugs don’t have the ability to kill the director’s campmates, and I didn’t intend to!”

Took-!

His hand, shaking like a tremor in the air, grabbed my metal pipe.

Deokgu Jang looks at me with eyes full of tears and trembling transmitted through an iron pipe.

“That means your role was to transport Lee Yu-jin’s poison to the library using an insect.”
“That’s right- that’s right, Director-! I have nothing to do with that bitch’s poison—”
“How did you do nothing, you bastard?”
“… Yes?”

A stupid answer that pops out in a suddenly lowered tone.

I lowered my head a little more towards him with a ferociously distorted face.

“That means that Lee Yu-jin’s poison wouldn’t have spread so easily in the library without you.”
“… Yes? Ah, no— no no— I’m just a few bugs—”
“Does this bastard know who the idiot is?”

Poo-!

The iron pipe he was holding was fired in an instant and hit him on the forehead.

Jang Deok-gu stumbles and falls ugly from his chair.

Before I knew it, the blood that had been staining the area around the chair became small and spattered in all directions.

“… Uhhhhh!”

Lee Yoo-jin’s corpse is entering more clearly in the lowered field of view.

Jang Deok-gu desperately moved away from the corpse, dragging his clothes soaked in blood.

Click-! Click-!

Steps quickly catch up with Jang Deok-gu, who is getting farther and farther away.

Jang Deok-gu looked alternately at the corpses of me and Lee Yu-jin as they approached, stepping on bloody water, then stopped dragging their feet behind them.

Jjiik-! Jjiik-!

A strange noise resounding from the bottom of the shoe even though it had escaped the blood.

Jang Deok-gu hurriedly knelt on the floor at the dark red blood that embroidered the white floor.

“I was wrong, I was wrong, the director! Just once, please save me just once, Jebaal-!”

Sack- sack- sack- sack- sack-

Deokgu Jang rubbing his hands to the point that the sound of his hands rubbing echoed throughout the lobby.

I quietly looked down at Jang Deok-gu, who was rubbing his hands like a fly.

“Please— please, Director, please just once…”
“There are ways to live, but…”

A subtle whisper to Jang Deok-gu, who is constantly begging for his life.

As soon as he heard my whisper, he whispered again to the guy who opened his eyes wide.

“Are you going to do that?”
“…”

As soon as I finished my words, Jang Deok-gu crawled on his knees.

He grabbed my trouser leg with trembling hands and nodded frantically.

“Then, call that bug or something in front of me first.”

Ugh-!

Jang Deok-gu, whose entire body turns gray in an instant.

Following his gaze as he quietly gazed into the void, a series of inherently unpleasant noises followed.

Why aaaaah!

A mosquito continues to fly in front of my eyes with a creepy sound.

As I stretched out his finger toward him, Deokgu Jang quickly placed the mosquito he was controlling on top of my finger.

“…”

Mosquitoes quietly following Deokgu Jang’s instructions on my finger.

I leaned toward Jang Deok-gu with a mosquito on my finger.

“Ah.”

A short voice exhaled as he stretched out his fingers through Jang Deok-gu’s mouth.

Jang Deok-gu, not understanding my gestures, blinked stupidly.

I reached his mouth a little closer and whispered more clearly.

“Ah-.”

The eyes of a man who is tinged with astonishment only when he sees his hand stretched out in front of his nose.

“…”

Deokgu Jang pressed his parched lips tighter and continued to stare alternately at me and the mosquito placed in front of his nose.

His eyes harden quickly at the behavior of the guy who doesn’t follow instructions.

Jang Deok-gu’s face turned white as if it had been bleached at my eyes, which were getting colder and colder.

The mouth of a guy who slowly, very slowly opens.

Ugh-!

The mosquito that had been sitting on the finger that had been extended a little further began to flap its wings slowly.

Why ah-!

Mosquitoes disappear in the mouth of Jang Deok-gu, who closes his eyes tightly.

I closed his mouth with my own hands and gave a short command.

“Swallow.”
“… Woo-wook-!”

Jang Deok-gu, who vomits and vomits shortly after his mouth closes.

A stream of tears gleamed through the dark-grey cluster, indicating that he was still controlling the bugs.

Jang Deok-gu’s mouth lingers as he sheds tears.

Gulp-.

It was only after I confirmed that his throat was swollen that I took my hand away from closing his mouth.

“…”

Jang Deok-gu, who had been frozen like ice without a word for a while.

“… Woo-wook-!”

Soon, he vomited like a hiccup while leaning his upper body forward.

“… Uweh-“

Pooh-!

A kick that pushed the face of the guy who was shaking his body more violently.

Once again, Jang Deok-gu rolled around the lobby, making a fool of himself.

“…”

Due to the sudden kicking, he suddenly stopped throwing up.

Deokgu Jang stared blankly at the floor without even thinking about getting up.

“What did he say—a small amount of poison that may develop in a few days.”

Thud- thud-

Approaching him again, whispering quietly to the brain.

“Pain in which a person does not even have time to cry and stabs his whole body with thorns without rest. I couldn’t even cry like that, so I twisted my whole body and in an instant, squealed!”

His eyes moved slowly as he playfully repeated the same words Lee Yu-jin had said.

“Looks like I poisoned my campmates with that kind of mosquito baby, but it doesn’t make much of a difference whether the mosquitoes bite or eat the mosquitoes, right?”
“… Uweh-“

Poo-!

A kick kicking at the face of the guy who turned white and was about to start throwing up.

I put my foot on the chest of Jang Deok-gu, who was forced to stop vomiting again.

Chin-!

Trampling on his chest, the eyes of each other met from top to bottom.

“Of course- I’m not saying this just to make fun of you.”

It was a bluff.

A very scary bluffing that exploits the imbalance of information.

Looking at his face, white with terror, he didn’t seem to have yet figured out that his powers would disappear when the caster was killed.

If that’s the case, it wouldn’t hurt to actively use that point.

“If there is poison, there must be an antidote.”

Ugh-!

A golden light shining in the middle of a mockingly smiling smile and the eyes that met each other.

I whispered as I held out my partially incompetent hand to him.

“I want to sell you the antidote.”

The difference in position was completely reversed in a matter of minutes, not hours.

“Honestly, I have a conscience too, I don’t want anything too big.”

Despite the continued teasing, Jang Deok-gu didn’t say anything and only trembled his lips.

Knock-!

“Kkeuheugh-!”

Jang Deok-gu spits out a painful moan at the slight force of his kick.

I looked down at my eyes, wide in pain, and quietly groaned.

“I want to receive an apology first.”

Took-!

Jang Deok-gu hurriedly changes his posture at the urge to pass his chest and lightly hit his head.

I bent over and kicked the guy in the head again as he began to bow to me.

Pooh-!

“You’re a jerk to my campers, not me.”
“… Heck—!”

Jang Deok-gu hurriedly changes direction while holding his head with both hands.

However, I continued to interrupt his apology this time as well.

“Is it okay if you just apologize?”
“…”

Jang Deok-gu looked at me with only his head turned in a prone position.

I made eye contact with him and pointed at something that was still left on the overturned table with my chin.

“It was something I did with that bitch. I have to apologize too. “
“…”
“Who would think of apologizing if you were lying around like that – wouldn’t you?”
“…”
“Depart.”

Took-!

A kick that pushes his ass all the way.

Jang Deok-gu, who was looking at me with wet eyes, crawled up to Lee Yoo-jin.

“…”

Jang Deok-gu trembles more vigorously in front of her corpse.

“…Hee hee!”

Soon after, she vomited her unbearable cry and stretched out her trembling hand to her.

“… Kkeuk- woah wow-! Hehe-!”

Jang Deok-gu changed Lee Yu-jin, who was lying on the floor repeatedly crying and gagging, into a bowing posture.

In that way, he started bowing alongside Lee Yu-jin, who was in a posture of bowing politely to the camp members.

“I’m sorry ah! I’m really sorry, everyone! I was really wrong!”

A very sincere apology that reverberates through the lobby.

“Oh—just like the real Decalcomani, it’s changed just as well.”

I slowly put my foot on the head of Jang Deok-gu, who was bent down as if he were one body with the floor.

“But only one part is different from Lee Yu-jin.”
“… Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-“

The place where I, quietly reciting, and Jang Deok-gu, who creaked and barely turned his head to Lee Yu-jin, looked at it together.

“Still, he was a colleague, but there shouldn’t be other parts.”

Looking at Lee Yu-jin’s sunken head, she lifted her legs slightly.

“… Ah -Ahhhhhes! I’m sorry! Please— please— really jevaaal— sorry, sorry—!”

Thud-! Thud-! Thud-!

Deokgu Jang starts to go mad as soon as his legs disappear from his head.

As if to prove his sincerity, he restlessly banged his forehead on the floor and cried out in apology.

Took-!

Jang Deok-gu only stops the light emission when his legs come up on his head again.

On the contrary, a faint smile naturally leaked out at this ironic act of being relieved only after the head was trampled on.

“Are you going to apologize just once and be done with it?”
“… I’m sorry! Sorry-! I’m sorry!”

I looked down at Jang Deok-gu, who started apologizing again, and swung at the camp members who were receiving the apology.

The camp members silently stare at Jang Deok-gu, who is constantly crying out for his apologies.

Each of them looked down at Jang Deok-gu with different expressions, but there was one emotion that was revealed almost in common.

“…”

Rather, Camp One steps back with a whiter face than Jang Deok-gu.

Camp One’s lips trembled with cold sweat running down before he knew it.

And— Cha Ha-yan, who is staring blankly at me with an expression he has never seen before.

Surprise and shock filled her trembling eyes.

And facing fear, I lowered my gaze again and pressed Jang Deok-gu’s head.

“You don’t do it to me, you bastard?”
“… I’m sorry, manager! I’m sorry, I’m sorry- I’m the manager! I’m sorry ahh-!”

Haha-! Haha-! Haha-!

The apology that came out over and over again without even a chance to catch my breath.

“Okay. That’s enough of an apology.”

In the aftermath, the face of Jang Deok-gu, who was breathing as if he was going to die at any moment, gradually loosened up.

With my recognition, I could clearly feel the tension that had been strangling him as if to squeeze it out of his throat.

Deok-gu Jang hesitantly knelt down at his gestures to raise his body.

“Then I should now be compensated for the damage you guys have done.”
“…”
“Why? A mere apology like that won’t even repair the damage I’ve done, right?”
“…”

The face of Jang Deok-gu, who had melted away from the unfinished story, melted more severely.

“How am I going to make up for the time I wasted because of your nonsense?”
“…”
“How many supplies could you have obtained if you searched outside during that time, and how many survivors could you have saved?”
“…”
“Well, you obviously don’t have anything that you can rip off from a beggar.”

A face without even a sliver of resistance or defiance, as if the body had drained all its energy.

However, his expression comes back to life as I slowly descend.

“Or how about that?”

Knock—my gaze down the rocking metal pipe and his crotch.

“Looking at the frantic scratching on the table, I don’t think it would matter much…”
“… Black black black black black black black black—”

Thick tears flowed down his face as if he had turned the top as if he had pulled his thighs pitifully.

Tears continue to flow from the gaping mouth and chin.

“Why? Is that a bit harsh?”
“…”

Deokgu Jang nodded weakly at my question, like a broken doll.

“Then, what else can I do?”
“… Anything— black black— I’ll do anything, Director.”

Please please-

Eyes looking up at me earnestly with reddened eyes.

Tring-!

[‘Deokgu Jang’ ‘submits’ to you ‘very strongly’.]

[Success factor: ‘very strong’ fear of loss, ‘very strong’ fear of violence, ‘very strong’ fear of death… ]

Staring at the message output beyond those eyes, she quietly leaned down.

Jang Deok-gu, who was kneeling on the floor helplessly, and his gaze laid horizontally.

I smiled lightly as I looked at the insect-related superpowers who looked much more useful than the poison-related superpowers.

Ideas that keep popping up by thinking of the keyword bug right now in your head.

Problems with corpses and garbage disposal, hygiene problems with bugs in the summer, etc.—

But there was one thought that popped into my head the most clearly.

“Then go get some bees from outside.”

Bees and honey.

Perhaps a new food that could greatly solve the seemingly endless food problem.

I bowed down next to him, chinned the dead Lee Yu-jin, and recited the following words.

“Bring a real queen bee, not a queen bee like that.”
