Chapter 108 – Might Have to Kill Chulgi Lee and Namchul Lee.

“It was actually Lee Cheol-ki who killed Toto.”

That’s where her story began.

“Who’s Toto?”

I answered Park’s blindfolded question.

“This is Hannah’s dog.”

I didn’t want to complicate the story too much by saying that they became a hybrid species and are still alive today.

“I’m sorry, I lied to you earlier.”

Kim apologized to me.
The lie, of course, was that Toto’s death was the result of a car accident.
I shook my head because it was probably irrelevant.

“No, never mind, it’s more about Lee Chul-ki killing Toto than anything else.”

This was a long story.
Kim Hae-na spoke candidly but without embellishment.
She didn’t know everything that was going on, but at least she understood that something serious had happened.
After all, Park Jung-gyun was poisoned by a monster human with Lee Cheol-ki’s signature on it and almost died.

“We’ve been friends since we were kids, like brother and sister, and I lost my mom when I was younger, so he took care of me a lot at his house, but the truth is this.”

Kim Hae-na said, looking down with dead eyes.

“Actually, I’m his half-sister. My mother wasn’t Korean, and he met my mother while he was overseas on business, and he brought her back to Korea, so we had two homes, so to speak. He didn’t know that, and he probably still doesn’t.”

Kim Hae-na’s expression grew increasingly pained.

“When we were in high school, we awakened and became Hunters side by side. I was a spellcaster and magician, and he was just an awakened, with no special skills. He didn’t mind because his physical abilities improved and his rank was high. Then his father brought him a book from a foreign country. He gave it to him when he became a Hunter, saying it was a precious book, but it was very strange, and he couldn’t interpret it, so he showed it to me, who knew three languages at the time. I learned my reading skills from that book, and it was full of very strange things. I still don’t know why his father brought it to him, or why he showed it to his son. Anyway, I started to feel strange about him after a while, and the way he looked at me made me feel burdened. He didn’t know that I was his half-sister, so maybe it was natural, because we were always together, and we were heterosexual, so he might have developed a sexual desire.”

I frowned because what followed was somewhat predictable.
Or, as I suspected, the story goes.

“One day he jumped on me, my clothes were torn and I was about to be raped by him. I fought back to save my life. I used poison and poisoned him. For about a month he didn’t come to school, and I was very worried because we had blood ties anyway, and we were close before that. I didn’t tell his parents the truth, just that I was playing a prank and made a mistake. A month later, he came back to school, and his mood had changed a lot. He treated me as if nothing had happened. I decided to forget about it, and then one day… Chulgi came to my house with something strange.”
“Something weird?”
“It was a little creature that looked like a cat, but it had a very strange shape, and to be honest, it scared me. He bragged that he had made it himself. I told him it was amazing, but I felt creeped out just looking at it. I wondered if it was the same. Then it happened. Toto played a prank on the monster, and the monster got mad and bit Toto. Toto died a painful death. But instead of feeling sorry for my dog, Chigi was happy that his monster was awesome. That’s when I saw it. The same tattoo I saw today. It was on the nape of the monster’s neck. I later found out that hunters called Spiritists do that, combining humans or animals with monsters to create them. Lee Chulgi learned the ability from a book my father gave him. He was like a blank slate, so he could absorb any ability. Sadly, I think the wound I inflicted was the trigger. I got poisoned, and that’s how I got my powers. Anyway, after that happened, I didn’t feel like I could handle seeing him anymore, so I dropped out of school and kept to myself at home. Irony would come to me from time to time, but I wouldn’t see him for the most part. Sometimes he’d come to me and I’d yell at the door, I love you. That you’re going to be my girl anyway…”

Kim Hae-na’s voice became more and more gloomy.

“…There is one more thing. In fact, my mother was killed by Cheol-gi’s father, Lee Nam-cheol. I saw with my own eyes two people fighting. Lee Nam-cheol strangled my mother while fighting with his mother. I was there when I was young, and Lee Nam-chul deliberately kept me close to him to silence him. He supported me without lack of money. Later, he dropped out of school and stayed at home, but as a result, Lee Nam-cheol’s surveillance intensified, and he was virtually confined to the house.”

Kim Hae-na’s story was completely unusual.
After hearing the story, my heart felt heavy, and it seemed that Park Jeong-gyun was the same.

“All rich people…”

He looked like he wanted to swear, but he didn’t say it openly because they were blood-mixed with Kim Hae-na anyway.

“Did Cheolgi do something?”

Kim Hae-na asked Lee Chul-gi.
He replied with a puzzled expression.

“I killed a person. Not just one, but several. He was tortured and killed in an unimaginably horrible way. And the corpse…”

Park Jeong-gyun, who hesitated to speak, finally said everything.

“I made the monster eat it. It seems that the body was disposed of like that.”
“Ah…”

Kim Hae-na sighed in despair.
She seemed to be thinking about something, then she asked again.

“Was the torture… Sexual?”
“Yes. How did you know that?”
“Spirits… I heard that they perform a ritual when killing people. It’s mainly about mass intercourse… Then killing them to extract the suffering souls. If I had done that, I probably wouldn’t have done it alone. Chulgi probably developed his abilities while interacting with other soul mages.”

After hearing Kim Hae-na’s words, I understood.
Everything fits right in

The important thing is whether Lee Nam-chul knew this, and he probably did.
Wasn’t the reason why he gave his son a dangerous book in order to enlighten his incompetent son and make him a useful tool?
Lee Nam-cheol was not the type of father who loves his son.
For he had relentlessly abandoned his son when he was cornered.

Kim Hae-na’s mother was killed by Lee Nam-cheol…
There was no bar like this.

In the quest information window, it was written that Kim Hae-na was Lee Chul-gi’s first love, and she also learned why she became that way.

“Miss.”

Park Jeong-gyun said to Kim Hae-na.

“Yes.”
“Thank you for saving me today. And it must have been difficult to say such a story, but thank you for telling me honestly. I might end up killing Lee Chul-gi and Lee Nam-cheol in the future. Will you be okay?”

At Park Jung-kyun’s words, Kim Hae-na stared at him.

“I’m sorry, but what I’m doing is…”
“It is in an underground guild. The guild name is Iron.”
“Underground guild… But you have to be careful. Like Lee Cheol-ki, his father Lee Nam-cheol is a very scary person.”
“I know you have to be careful. But I can’t stay still after hearing these stories. We will find the best way.”
“Yes…”

Kim Hae-na thought about it for a moment, then added.

“The rich people are people who shouldn’t be alive. Please let me know if there is anything I can help with. I will do anything.”
“Thank you for your words. By the way, I have to pay for the treatment… Wait a minute.”

Park Jeong-kyun put his hand into the inventory.
It was a bundle of cash that came with his hand, probably not the type to leave money in the bank.
Maybe it was because he was an underground guild hunter, so he did a lot of transactions in cash without going through a bank.

“I only have this much for now, but if you need more, let me know.”

The money Park Jung-kyun took out seemed to be around 20 million won.
All were bundles of 50,000 won bills.

“Money is…”

Kim Hae-na, who initially tried to decline, picked up his money bundles one by one and put them in his inventory.
He seemed to think that getting paid was neater.

Park Jeong-gyun looked at me and said.

“Sunggyu, if you need help, let me know.”
“Yes, anytime.”

That conversation was the last.

Kim Hae-na and I came out of Park Jeong-gyun’s house.

“I took the money.”
“It’s the money I received after treatment. Are you okay.”
“No, I even sucked my dick…”

Inside, we had a lot of serious conversations and came out, but Kim Hae-na’s personality was the same.
