Chapter 821 – Are You Crazy? (2)
“Aaaaa!!”
Gold Rose, who slipped on the ice and hit her butt, screamed again.
Due to the somewhat noisy scene, people started to come out and look at our group one by one.
I thought it would be better to take it easy and leave, but surprisingly, there seemed to be no reason for Sihee and I to be conscious of other people’s gaze and distance ourselves from them first.
‘What is it? Suddenly a scream…’
‘… Isn’t the person who fell over there Miss Golden Rose? The person next to me seems to be my younger brother…’
‘It would be better not to get involved with that side. In particular, that woman named Geumjangmi was a bit…’
It seemed that the Golden Rose’s notoriety was not limited to Sihee and Eunbyeol, so other hunters who recognized the Golden Rose that had fallen on her floor began to leave quickly.
Moreover, because this woman screamed and immediately attracted everyone else’s attention, she didn’t pay much attention to me either, and the attention that was already small soon disappeared completely due to the commotion just now.
“W-What are you doing?! “You crushed my hand while pretending to shake my hand. You must have known who I was and did this?!”
“It seems like it was proper etiquette by their standards to pretend to shake hands and use phantom pain all at once.”
“… Ha, I don’t know what you’re talking about! Phantom pain? “What benefit do I have by doing something like that to you when I first met you?!”
“There may be many reasons, but wouldn’t the biggest reason be that you are Sihee’s acquaintance? At first glance, he doesn’t seem to have a very good personality, but he must have used phantom pain because he knew Sihee would not be happy if he bothered me.”
Stop pretending. It was a fully expected reaction. And since the reaction was not unexpected, it was naturally easy to respond.
“You are delusional! Do you have any proof?! “Do you have any proof that I tried to use phantom pain on you?”
“It’s a phantom pain, but there’s no way there’s any evidence left. “Don’t you know best, Mr. Golden Rose?”
“Ha, I knew you would say that! Why don’t you say that at the police station?! That woman tried to attack me with a phantom barrel, so I retaliated against her by crushing all of her hand bones!”
Phantom pain leaves no evidence, no matter how much pain it causes the other person to struggle with. Because it was just an ‘illusion’ that didn’t literally hit or cause any damage.
Whether it’s the feeling of your whole body burning, the feeling of your heart being stabbed, or any other painful feeling, they are all illusions and not reality, so they could have used phantom pain on me as soon as I met them.
No matter how much pain the other person was in, there was no need to worry at all because there was no evidence left behind. So, he probably used phantom pain simply to soothe his feelings.
It was even said that the woman named Geum Dal-rae was capable of partial memory erasure, so she was truly a person with awakening abilities worthy of criminals.
‘In the first place, she was a very unreliable woman who obtained something like an illusion through awakening ability.’
Although not all cases are the same, her awakening ability often manifests as the awakening ability she most desires.
When used against monsters, it was meaningless, but when used against humans, there was no way that the owner of the ability to cause endless pain for eternity was the owner of a proper mental head.
… That’s why I only caused pain to Golden Rose and didn’t leave any evidence. I didn’t want to get caught in the middle of a plan to ‘deal with’ these women in earnest and go through unnecessary legal disputes.
“You crushed the bones in her hand? “What on earth are you talking about?”
“That’s what you just did! She pretended to shake hands and crushed my hand with such ridiculous force that it really sounded like a bone breaking… !”
“Even though you say that, it doesn’t look like you hurt your hand at all?”
“… W-what kind of nonsense…”
She looked at me with an expression that told me not to talk nonsense and raised her right hand, a golden rose, but of course, her hand appeared to be in good condition with no injuries whatsoever.
“… “Uh, huh?”
“Why are you doing that, Mr. Gold Rose?”
“Hey, this can’t be happening! Well, just now, when you held my hand, I felt a bone break in my hand… !”
“Well. But on the outside it looks fine, right? “Do you have any proof?”
“Well, what… ? Evidence… ?”
“If I really crushed Gold Rose’s hand or broke her bone, wouldn’t it be normal for Gold Rose’s hand to be broken or swollen now?”
“…”
As if she didn’t expect that she would be asked such a question on her behalf, her golden rose expression hardened, and while she was still sitting on the floor, she naturally said a word to the embarrassed girl.
“I felt the pain, but there was no evidence…, “
“…”
“Have you ever experienced ‘phantom pain’?”
“… “What?”
Look at their eyes. It looks like it’s going to kill you.
I could feel quite a strong sense of death in the sharp eye light that leaked from between the narrowed eyes.
It was my first time feeling this kind of death from a person, so I was a little embarrassed, but anyway, there was no way the Golden Rose could do anything against me right now.
With that woman’s awakening ability called phantom pain, I couldn’t break the mental shield that Esila had built, and in the end, if we were to use force against strength, this woman was at a level that I could play with, even more than Do Ye-hee, who attacked me earlier.
For your information, the crushing of the Golden Rose’s hand just now was not an illusion, but reality. But before I let go of her hand, I just use healing magic to heal her in an instant and get rid of her foolishness.
Since my true identity as Seong Tae-kyung had not yet been revealed, that woman would not know that I had the ability to awaken, and she would not have been able to reach the idea that a man could use the ability to recover.
“By the way, are you okay with your fall? For some reason, she was staggering, so I tried to hold her as best as I could, but I ended up losing her.”
“…”
“Please wake up, Mr. Gold Rose. I’ll hold her hand…”
-Tap!
It was a golden rose that I had pushed aside with her left hand and instead extended her hand to her azalea that was standing behind her.
“Why don’t you wake up quickly, damn it!”
“… Okay.”
Not paying any attention to Gold Rose’s nervousness, Rhododendron held her hand and lifted her up from the floor.
Although she has a calm-looking face now, that woman was the main culprit of the Eunbyeol kidnapping incident, just like Geumjangmi.
Although she said it didn’t work well against strong people, amnesia was a dangerous ability in itself. And after weakening her opponent’s mind with the Gold Rose Illusion Barrel, her memory erasing ability would go in without much resistance, so she had to be careful about that as well.
‘If possible, it would be good if we could ‘deal with’ both of them quietly here, but if we do it here, too much evidence will remain.’
Right now, just at this ice rink, there are a lot of CCTVs installed everywhere, and I wasn’t yet familiar with how the facilities inside the foundation worked.
If I openly cause violence or controversy, my position will be in danger. It was necessary to find another location to deal with them.
Even if I was the only male awakened hunter in the world, that didn’t mean I could get away with any crime.
‘For now, let’s just leave the ‘tracking’ aside.’
With that thought, she leaned towards Sister Golden Rose and Geumdallae, who was trying to raise her body by holding her hand. As an added bonus, he acted as if he couldn’t balance because he wasn’t used to skating.
-Slippery!
“Ugh, ugh!”
“Why don’t you wake up quickly… Wow?!”
“… Ugh?!”
-Clap!
“Mr. Seongcheol?! Are you okay?!”
Two people who tried to get up on the ice were unable to avoid the natural dive and fell down again.
I fell down on the ice, using Sister Geumhyang’s body as a cushion, and pretended to quickly get up, clearly groping the bodies of the two women.
– Malkang.
-Casting.
If you touch it too obviously, it will raise suspicion, so do it as quickly and slyly as possible.
He brought his hand to the area around both people’s chest and massaged it just once, then quickly got up as if he had fallen.
“Ah, ahhh…”
“Ouch…”
Geumjangmi fell again while trying to get up, and Geumdallae fell down while trying to help her up.
Perhaps because of the pain of falling on the ice, he was so confused that he didn’t seem to notice that I had touched his chest.
It was a good thing. Anyway, with this, the personal information of Golden Rose and Geumdallae would have been stored in my awakening ability without the women knowing.
It was a fact that I had already found out through Lulucia that it was possible to add one to the Hunter Sexual Desire Manager system just by touching the chest, so it was certain.
Of course, there was no intention to relieve the sexual desires of those women by storing personal information.
The reason I registered those women in my Hunter Sexual Desire Manager System was to utilize my awakening abilities differently.
