Chapter 30 – This Is How Blackmail Works

You don’t even need to use the stairs for this.

“I go first.”
“I’ll go right down too!”

Unlike Min-seo, who turned and ran towards the door, I jumped on top of the window sill.
It’s at least two stories high.

Thud!

“Kyaaak!!”

Aww, that’s fucking thrilling!!
The current pushed up through the soles of the feet goes up to the top of the head and spreads throughout the body.
It’s not really electricity, but it’s a thrilling feeling.
By the way…

“You are ugly!”
“… “

Shocked by my sudden appearance right in front of me, the woman who landed on her butt stared at me with her blank eyes wide open, and I raised my gaze upward and stopped the chase for a moment, looking at the guy who was wary of me and laughing.

“What are you looking at? Can’t you feel it?”
“What are you doing… “
“It’s the grim reaper.”

Tadadat-

I ran forward and swung the helpless mace in my right hand…
Fuck you, you didn’t bring it!
Holy shit, I left all my weapons on top.
Minseo I jumped down without taking my weapon because I kept getting annoyed at that bitch.
What, could it be a big problem?

Wheeik!!!

As I narrowed the distance, the guy wearing an eye bracelet reflexively swung a sword that could have been used by a Roman soldier.
Yeah, if you’re holding a weapon, you either swing it at someone who’s attacking you, or you stab it.
Unsurprising reaction.

Widely!!

I hit the ground with my left foot to put the brakes on my body, I pulled my face and waist back to avoid the knife, and as soon as the knife passed in front of me, I leaned forward again and stabbed my right fist with my right foot.
Because stabbing is faster than swinging.

Whiiik-Peouk!!!

Aww? Block this?
The guy who raised his left arm to block my fist.
Certainly, no matter how many times he’s with his friends, he’s a guy who can afford to laugh out loud on a zombie-infested street.
Still, seeing that I’m pushed back, I think I’m a guy who can roughly rub against me in agility stats, but in strength stats, I’m definitely superior.
Anyway, is this fake?

Tta-dak- just- just- just-

The eyeballs caught on the tip of the fist exploded and the eyeballs fell to the floor. As you can tell from the cheerful sound, these are not real human eyeballs.

Snap-

“Plastic?”
“What the hell are you doing?!”
“Then what are you doing, wearing a bracelet like this?! The taste is right for once… You thought it was real!”

That’s right, no matter how crazy he is, there’s no way he’d be embarrassed to wear a bracelet made of real human eyeballs.
The weather is warm, so it will spoil quickly, and then the smell will be very bad.

“Are you okay?! Brother, what are you doing?! Kill me quickly!”
“Hey, this is fake.”
“Fake..? Ah…”

Minseo, who finally saw the plastic eyeballs rolling on the floor at my words, made a blank expression for a moment, then looked up at me and smiled bashfully.

“Hehe.. Mistake~ Then don’t kill me.”
“Under… Crazy bitch.”
“Still, they are bad guys who harass powerless women, so please punish them!”
“Am I your doll? If you want to do it, you do it. If you’re not going to kill me, I’m not interested.”

I’ve lost interest in the man who didn’t kill, but I’m still very interested in this ugly woman.
‘Cause I’ve heard what those guys are saying.
The words that we have to find the hideout of those bitches.
Hehe… If it was a hideout for those bitches, there would be a lot of women, right?

Jerk- jerk-
Swoop-

I squatted down in front of a woman with minor injuries here and there, pushed Min-seo, who was sitting right next to me, with my butt, and took her gaze.

“Hey.”
“Yes..?”
“Guide me to the hideout.”
“Ah, Ajitra… What do you mean… “
“Will you stick out your flippers? Did you hear everything they said? If you lie to me one more time, I’ll cut off all your limbs and feed them to zombies. Do you think I’m kidding?”
“… “

Gulp-

Perhaps realizing that these were not empty words, the woman looked at me, gulped down her dry saliva, and moved her eyes very slightly back and forth.
To the extent that anyone can see that he is rolling his head.

“Don’t roll your head. Then the head flies away.”
“That, that’s… So…”
“Brother! What are you doing to the injured person?! Are you okay. I’m not such a bad person. I’m only going to do it once. No… How many times?”
“… “
“I will be very relieved to hear that. Do not disturb unnecessarily and keep quiet.”

I’m trying to stop Min-seo, who doesn’t know if she’s trying to help or interfere, and interrogate her again…

“Hey. I see you’re trying to be like us, but it was originally ours. Don’t go looking for other people’s bread needlessly, just quietly go away. You seem to be confident in your strength too, but our side is stronger in terms of numbers and power.”
“Okay. Okay.”
“Okay, I thought… “
“You just die. The reason you die is because you mess around with your snout, so in your next life, look after people and show off your snout, kid~”
“You crazy bastard!!”

Tadadat-
Back!!

I jumped up and pressed the head of the woman in front with the guy running towards him, and I ran towards him.
Wow, look at this kid?
As expected, as time goes by and I get stronger, are the other guys who survived doing it one by one?
It’s a bit tricky though, but what we can be sure of with the current attacks…

Pooh!!

“Brother!!”

Minseo screamed at the sight of his knife piercing my heart and protruding from behind.

“This..!”

The knife did not pierce my heart like the embarrassed face and the sigh that came out of his mouth.
It just came out through a baggy T-shirt flapping around from side to side.

“Can you catch a fly because you’re so slow?”

It’s true that he’s at a level where I can roughly rub against him, but mine is definitely faster.

Poop!!!
Awesome!!

It’s plugged in properly.
Maybe a rib or two were missing?

“Chehehe!!!”

My body folded sideways with a well-placed fist in my left side, and my face fell down to make it easy to hit.

Tadadat-
Puck!!!

“Keugh..!”

Shit… Are you already supporting?!
The falling fist hit me in the chest, kicked by a flying kick, and I swung my right foot vigorously as I flinched and was pushed back.

Puck!!
Deed Dede Deuk!!!

The sword of the eye-bracelet that was kicked by my swinging right foot and slipped on the road and disappeared into the distance.
First of all, he’s broken his ribs, so he won’t be able to move properly, and he’s even reduced his weapon…
Isn’t this guy a joke?
Fuck, does this feel like stepping on shit properly?
The guy who ordered me to catch that ugly bitch saying that I need to find a hideout is not only glaring at me with fierce eyes, but also quite talented.
Looking at how he killed three real zombies behind him in this short amount of time and saved this one as well.
Well, I can do that much, too.

“Why did you attack Yuchan?”
“Lee Yoo-chan! Are you okay?!”
“What is that bastard?! Are you one of those bitches too?!”

Damn, the other two also joined.
With this, there are a total of four people I have to deal with.
No, Minseo takes care of one and two of them except for the one with a broken rib.
By the way, is the guy with the eye bracelet Lee Yoo-chan?
Anyway, if it’s at Lee Yoo-chan’s level, it’s worth a try at least 2-on-1, but I’m not confident if he’s in the middle…
First of all, should we avoid all-out war?

“If you want to talk, don’t you organize your surroundings first? If we continue like this, we will all die.”
“Don’t fuck, you bastard..!”
“Ah… Wherever you go, why do kids all have that shape on their snouts?”

Lee Yu-chan, who seems to be the same age as the original kid Ko Min-jun, also has a dirty snout.
He would have killed him had he only had a weapon.
Well, rather than weapons, it’s my fault for not thinking that those bastards would get rid of the real zombies so quickly.

“We will take her. I don’t want to engage in unnecessary fights. Getting hurt in a world like this would be a situation neither you nor we want.”
“Peach general. So I’ll take that ugly bitch.”
“… You mean to fight.”
“You don’t want to fight?”

Anyway, if those guys don’t rush now, time is on my side.
The swarming zombies will attack us soon, and unlike me, who has an escape route right behind them, those guys won’t be able to chase me because of the swarming zombies.
If they come after me, I’ll block the entrance, and if they hold out, they’ll die anyway.
And the ugly bitch that both sides want is already safely secured by the quick-witted Minseo.
Everything is working in my favor.
However…

“I’m in charge of that guy. Yoo-chan protects Hyeon-jun, and Han-woong secures that woman.”

You crazy bastard, are you really trying?

“Yes.”
“All right.”
“Brother! I’m OK!”
“Quiet. You can’t even stand up right now.”
“… “
“Finish it before the zombies arrive.”
“You say fuck it.”
“Brother! It is now!”
“As expected, I like you because you are quick-witted?”

Min-seo, who secured the ugly bitch as if she had read my mind, runs toward the entrance of the building first.
And two guys moving at the same time.
One to me, and one to Min-seo, who slightly turns around me and runs towards the entrance of the building.
But aren’t you underestimating Minseo too much?

“Leave one guy.”
“Yes!”

You don’t have to win.
I just have to hold out until I get back to the entrance of the building while dealing with this guy.
It’s been a year since I’ve been following me, but I can do that enough.

“Do you think all women are weak?!”

Whiik!!

“This..!!!”

Caang!!!

He hurriedly raises his weapon to block Minseo’s attack and steps back.
I should do something like that too.
Then, if I do well…

Shiiik!!

“Wow, fuck!!”

Shahah!!!

The tip of a knife passed right in front of my eyes.
I almost went to the goal after selling my eyes!
Still, if he was faster than me, my head would have been split in half, but seeing as he is still fine, he is not faster than me.
It’s probably a guy with the same level 9 agility as mine.
I already knew that he was a very talented person, but I didn’t expect his stats to be as good as mine…
By the way, you can’t make this level of stats by killing only zombies.
I can be sure of that because I have been hunting hard every single day.
Then, this guy is also someone who has killed people before…
Fuck, I’m the problem, not Minseo!

“Where!!”

Shiiyik!!!

The guy who stabbed the knife into my heart, which slowly retreated back, and forced me to turn to the side, occupies the place where I was and swings the knife to the side.

Wheeik!!
Squeak-

I stepped further to the side with my cracked T-shirt and before I knew it, I was farther away from the building entrance than he was, and now he is slowly backing away, narrowing the distance with Min-seo.
I’d go crazy and go crazy trying to deal with a sword wielded by someone as strong as me with my bare hands!
Damn, even if I came down with only real weapons…!
Oh wait.
Isn’t this an advantage for me again?

Swish-
Swish-
Tadadat-
Tadadat-

As if we had promised, the guy and I both turned around and started running, heading in different directions.
He faces the entrance of the building, and I face those two.

“You bastard..!”
“Come back!”

The man who was supporting Lee Yu-chan pulled him behind his back and pointed a knife at me.

“You are just like that.”

Swoop-
Shiiik!!

“Ah… “

I slightly pulled my face to the side and sent the knife stabbing at my forehead to the side, then I gave a deep blow to the abdomen with my clenched right fist, then threw my left fist over the guy whose body was folding like a shrimp.
Towards Lee Yoo-chan, who was standing awkwardly with his ribs out.

Baek!!!

“Cheuk!!”
“Kyaaak!!”

Min-seo’s screams are heard at the same time as Lee Yoo-chan bounces back.
Is being a hostage a hobby?
Well, since I sent him, there’s nothing I can do about it.

“If you move even one of her fingers, this woman dies.”

While holding Min-seo by the neck, he threatens her by thrusting the tip of her knife right in front of her eyes.
And at that appearance, Minseo sighed in despair.

“Ha… It’s useless.”
“What?”
“Look over there.”

As expected, Minseo knows something.

Swoop-

I grabbed his stomach with my left hand and turned the face of the guy who was bending over slightly to the side, then swung his right elbow folded in half.

Wheeik!!
Quick!!!

A man collapses onto the road, unable to even scream, with an elbow properly lodged in his chin.
And I smiled at the guy holding Minseo hostage.

“Anyone who thinks Yu-chan or Muchan will fall behind in 5 seconds. Is this guy going to be around 8 seconds?”
“Keah!!”
“Kuaa!!”
“Aaah!!”

Even if I don’t have to step out, the swarming zombies will kill them on their own.
If they don’t come here to save us.

“You bastard..!”
“Do you have time to think now?”
“Han Woong!!”
“Yes!!”

I run to save Min-seo and the ugly bitch that I each caught, and Yoo-chan Lee, who was hit by my fist and flew away, and the man under my feet.
It’s an unavoidable choice for them.
If I had killed or injured Minseo, two of my colleagues would have died at my hands without waiting for the zombies to come.
And the ugly bitch has to be left behind too, otherwise I’ll stop them from saving them, and then my colleagues will die.
I didn’t say a word, but they are in a situation where they have no choice but to listen to all the requirements I think.
Also…

“If you’re going to threaten me, you should do this, right?”
“You will kill me with my own hands..!”
“Ooh, I’m scared~ I’m so scared I’m going to pee in my sleep.”

Now, the distance between him and me is only 4-5 meters.
I picked up the knife that had fallen on the floor and put it to the fallen guy’s neck.

“Oh, no!!!!”
“Don’t do it!!!!”
“Nope? Who let you save it?”

Awesome!!

He drew his sword lightly and cut his throat.
I only threatened, because I didn’t promise to spare these guys in the first place.

“Hyunjun-a!!!!”
“You are saved by Yuchan! I will kill this guy!!!!!”

The guy who slashed his sword at me with a scream full of screams.
But what can I do, unlike a moment ago when I had to avoid it, I also have a weapon.

Whie profit!!!!
Chaeeng!!!

His attack was blocked by a knife raised in front of his face.

“Are you sorry? You would want to kill me.”
“Aaaaa!!!!”

Woowook!!!

The guy who pushes down the knife that is touching with all his might.
If you look at some cartoons, there are generals who blow people’s heads like this, but this is not a cartoon, but reality.
In my opinion, I want to blow away his sword and slit his throat, but…
It looks like this kid’s strength is the same as mine.
Although they are pushing their swords with all their might, only a confrontation continues and neither side has the upper hand.

“Do you have time for this? I don’t think I can save him alone.”
“Shut up!!!”
“Oi~ At this rate, only you will survive.”
“Aaaaa!!!”

The guy who instantly exploded his power with a scream pushed me back along with the knife he was facing, and then ran towards the two still alive comrades.
Yes, those who fall behind are behind, and those who live must be saved.
However…

Whii profit!!!

Who just sent them?
A knife swinging at a guy running to the side.

Awesome!!

“Cabi~”
“… “

The guy with a slight cut on his right shoulder, not the neck he was aiming for, glared at me as if to kill me and gnashed his teeth.

Wow!!

“This is Jung Woo-bin. Be sure to remember my name..!”
“Shut up and get out of here, you bastard.”

Awesome!!!

The guy gnashing his teeth and running again.
I’m not in a situation where I can play anymore because of the zombies coming from all sides.
So I walked to the entrance of the building, took Minseo and the ugly bitch upstairs, and stood by the window to see if he was saving his colleagues.
Still, I did save it.
Well done, because they’re all going to be my coins.
