Chapter 72 – Class a Hunter Jo Ah-Young (17)

#

“Hmm…”

Jo Ah-yeong was in a state of fainting for about an hour before opening her eyes.

“It’s okay?”

I, who was next to me, asked.
I stayed by Jo Ah-young’s side because Kang Ah-jin encouraged me to do so.
She said that she would be relieved if her baby boy woke up and she saw me first, and that made sense.

Indeed, Jo Ah-yeong looked at me and slowly straightened her frowning forehead.

“Ah… Penis brother.”
“Yeah. I am here.”

It was a bit embarrassing, but I held her hand.

“I… I think I had a dream. A very terrible dream. My brother is my parents…”
“It is not a dream.”

As Jo Ah-young denied the reality and talked about it as if it were a dream, Kang Ah-jin, who was standing by the wall, spoke.

Yes.
She too was in the same room.

If I took on the role of comforting Jo Ah-yeong, she was unintentionally playing the opposite role to me.
It is to inform Jo Ah-young of the truth.

I wondered if I could do it slowly, but after all, it didn’t make any difference whether I did it slowly or quickly.
If I had to tell Jo Ah-yeong the truth, it would be better to tell her sooner rather than later.

It’s even more so from the point of view of trying to incorporate her into an ally.
The longer she is away, the more likely Dong-geun Jo will notice that she is with us.

“You…Why did you do that to me…”
“Ayoung needs to know. What kind of person is Jo Dong-geun? What I showed you is 100% real. Most of the people who knew about it are dead or missing. If it weren’t for me, no one would have told me the truth. Then Ah-yeong would have believed that he was a good older brother without knowing his real face.”
“It can’t be… That can’t be true…”

Jo Ah-young’s hand, which was holding my hand, became stronger.
Through her hands, her desperate feelings were conveyed.

It will be hard to accept.
It would be difficult to recall the death of the adoptive parents who raised him, but the culprit was his own older brother.

I was terrified of how I would feel if I had gone through the same thing.

“It hasn’t even been a year since Ah-yeong met her brother again. Yes?”
“It is, but…”
“He didn’t show his true self to Ah-young. He is never a nice person.”
“Ah, I’ll just go. I think my head will break if I stay here.”

Jo Ah-yeong tried to get up from the bed.

Seeing her like that, Kang Ah-jin said.

“Even if you go, go and see this. You should know what kind of person your brother is.”

Kang Ah-jin took out another amulet.
The amulet had the same phenomenon as the amulet removed from the table.

A hologram image began to unfold as the light was emitted.

In this video, Jo Dong-geun’s appearance came out from the beginning.

“Long time no see.”

As the door opened, Jo Dong-geun, who was tall and well-built, smiled brightly.

It wasn’t long before I knew from whose point of view this video was shot.
Judging from the contents of the conversation, it was easy to know who was talking across from Jo Dong-geun.

Kang Ah-jin.

Perhaps this video was a memory from when she went to see Jo Dong-geun a few days ago.

Perhaps because the video was recorded from Kang Ah-jin’s point of view, her uncomfortable feelings were conveyed intact.
She felt that she did not want to face Dong-geun Cho as much as possible and wanted to end the conversation with him as soon as possible.

However, Jo Dong-geun didn’t care and brought Kang Ah-jin into the room.

And the terrifying scenery unfolded in it.

Bottles of alcohol and drugs were strewn about the room, and above all, naked women lay miserably on the floor.
There was also a woman with blood flowing from their genitals and chewing foam.

Each of them had cuts or bruises on their bodies.

It can’t be identified with certainty from the video played through the amulet, but they probably looked like ordinary women, not hunters.
It was obvious who they were dealing with.

It happened while dealing with Jo Dong-geun, who is S-class, and that is not an ordinary S-class.
I know this well because I tried to have sex with Seulbi Kim when I was a normal awakener.
That it is physically impossible.

How hard was it

Just imagining it made every cell in my body stand on end.
Jo Ah-young must have been much more shocked than I was, and her hand that held it began to tremble.

“It can’t be… It can’t be…”

In the video, Kang Ah-jin and Jo Dong-geun’s conversation continued.
I could feel Cho Dong-geun’s overwhelming power.

Even Kang Ah-jin, who seemed to me to have almost absolute ability, couldn’t use his strength at all in front of him.
It was literally like a mouse in front of a cat.

‘That bastard…’

I couldn’t say anything harsh because Jo Ah-young was next to me, but I got more and more angry as the video went on.
Because he was blatantly sexually harassing Kang Ah-jin.

Especially in the scene where she chases her as she tries to leave her room and hugs her, she grimaces and bites her molars.

“Stop, stop showing me…”

The video seems to have ended anyway, but Jo A-young said that and shook his hand.
Tears flowed from her tightly closed eyes.

“You don’t have to be so sad.”

Kang Ah-jin said something shocking.
No matter how cool she is, I wondered if what she just said was a bit too much.

Even if I was in Jo Ah-young’s position, it was a difficult attitude to accept.

“Are you saying that now?”

Jo Ah-young glared at Kang Ah-jin.

“The reason is simple. Because Jo Dong-geun is not A-young’s real brother.”
“Yeah?”
“Yes?”

Jo Ah-yeong and I asked in a dumbfounded voice at the same time.

Jo Dong-geun is not Jo Ah-yeong’s older brother.
What the hell is this…

Just as her mind was about to go into chaos, A-Jin Kang pulled her chair with her incantation and she sat there.
He spoke with a calm expression and tone.

“I was weird. Why was Jo Dong-geun so obsessed with Ah-young? It is said that he is a younger brother who was separated when he was young, but it is incomprehensible to common sense that he dared to kill his parents to keep A-young by his side. Moreover, it is especially true that a human without blood and tears like Jo Dong-geun is like that.”
“Such… But the papers…”
“Anything like that can be manipulated. You know that S-class hunters have tremendous power, right? Jo Dong-geun really needed Ah-young.”
“But I… I understand…”

Neither did I.
Why does Jo Dong-geun need Jo Ah-young?
Even so, was it really necessary to bring it to Korea while making things so complicated?

“Although it’s very rare, there are cases where some skills only work on certain people. Ah-yeong, did she ever come to Korea before meeting Jo Dong-geun?”
“Yeah… I’ve been on a trip with her parents because my roots are in Korea.”
“At that time, Jo Dong-geun must have seen Ah-young. And she must have felt an unusual sensation. A kind of buffing phenomenon, in which her own mana explodes.”
“A buff…?”
“Jo Dong-geun is a very lucky human being. It wasn’t enough that he had awakened to an S-class level, because he met Ah-young, who could be said to be his soul mate. He must have realized that Ayoung is a person who greatly buffs his abilities. Coincidentally, they were both orphans, and it was recorded that A-Young had one older brother by hers. I also thought it was strange and looked it up, but according to the records, Jo Dong-geun had no siblings. He planned all of this. I don’t know if he thought of it himself or if he got help, but he seems to have decided that it’s better to trick him into thinking he’s his real brother and keep him by his side forever than to forcefully bring him back. That way you can receive buffs more reliably. If the person with the skill doesn’t want it, no matter how much the skill is activated regardless of my will, the effect is inevitably reduced.”

The tears stopped flowing from Joe’s eyes.
She looked like she didn’t know what to say.

“If you want proof, I can show you. I don’t have enough time, so I don’t have much data, but the more I dig, the more evidence I will get.”
“How the hell did you know about this?”

I asked.

We talked about her Jo Ah-yeong yesterday, and she also made plans to capture her.
Until then, I hadn’t noticed the slightest hint that Kang A-jin knew her Jo A-young’s secret.

“When Cho Dong-geun commissioned a job related to Ah-young, I read his memory. And I made the assumption that there must be some tangled secret here. And when I was with him, I was able to bring up more memories. It wasn’t clear enough to record on the talisman, but I could tell that he had no attachment to Ah-yeong as a younger brother. What I do is always risky. I always need a means to protect myself. For me, the means by which Jo Dong-geun could be hit was against Ah-yeong. Knowing the mere crime cannot hurt him. But Ayoung is different. If he doesn’t have Mr. Ah-yeong, it will be difficult for him to demonstrate his abilities beyond other S-class hunters.”
