‘Damn it. What the hell is this kid?’
Nam Yu-jun was embarrassed when he saw Dokgo Jun suddenly appear.
As soon as Dokgo Jun entered the battle, he swung his sword at Nam Yu Jun without hesitation.
-Kaga River!
I managed to block the sword, but it was a close call.
Nam Yu-jun instinctively felt the difference in the sharp yet heavy attack.
‘What the hell is this kid’s rank?’
Nam Yu-jun was able to grow in a short period of time by killing people and absorbing their abilities.
At this point, it would be safe to say that it is the strongest in District 4.
However, the weight and speed of Dokgo Jun’s sword were difficult to handle.
‘I think it’s at least worth it!’
What makes him even more embarrassed are Dokgo Jun’s eyes.
His eyes were sparkling with joy and madness.
“Haha, this is stronger than any demon I’ve ever encountered! Alright, this is just right!”
Dokgo Jun, who was mumbling something incomprehensible, just looked happy.
As Nam Yu-jun was blocking Dokgo Jun’s attack, another attack came from behind.
-Crunch!
Seo Kang-rim’s sharp sword aimed at Nam Yu-jun’s vital point.
I barely escaped, but my neck was cut and bleeding began to flow out.
The murderous intent flowing from Seo Kang-rim was just as strong and cruel as Dokgo Jun.
‘I didn’t know Seo Kang-rim had another colleague. It’s a face I hadn’t seen at the riverside that time.’
A few days ago, the person who attacked Seo Kang-rim and his group using the Demon Peach was Nam Yu-jun.
He planned to launch a surprise attack when the demons came rushing in, but Seo Kang-rim saw through it and ruined the plan.
Nam Yu-jun glanced at Dokgo Jun and said.
“Mr. Seo Kang-rim, you have a lot of colleagues.”
“Not a colleague.”
“Yes. To be exact, a fellow candidate.”
Dokgo Jun had a bright smile on his face.
Although the relationship between the two was not clear, they were both now enemies of Nam Yu-jun.
Unlike how nervous he was, Seo Kang-rim and Dokgo Jun were talking as if it was nothing special.
“Seo Kang-rim, isn’t he a bit weak as a villain? How about letting him run away and then catching him when he gets a bit bigger?”
“I don’t know why you keep talking nonsense every time I see you.”
Instead of trembling in front of me, you’re just chatting away about trivial things.
While Nam Yu-jun was shocked, the voice of God was heard.
[The ‘Fear of the Living and the Dead’ is telling us to run away.]
[‘The Fear of the Living and the Dead’ says it will blind them.]
Nachal quickly sent the item to Nam Yujun.
With even his own guardian angel saying this, he had no choice but to run away.
The moment he took out the item.
Seo Kang-rim’s eyes, sensing the abnormality, shone sharply.
[Item ‘Seed of Poison Fog’ is activated!]
At the same time, purple smoke filled all around, and poison began to flood the surroundings.
Nam Yu-jun quickly ran away and looked back.
‘If it were a normal human, they would have been rendered incapacitated after inhaling the poisonous fog… … .’
The killer’s intuition was speaking.
Now is the time to run away.
Nam Yu-jun gritted his teeth and ran through the fog like a madman.
Because of the poisonous fog that filled all directions, even the demons were falling one by one.
Seo Kang-rim was looking down at the scenery from a tree.
‘Is it the seed of the poisonous fog? It’s an expensive item, but it looks like Nachal gave it to me.’
The moment Nam Yu-jun took out the ‘Seed of Poisonous Fog’.
Seo Kang-rim, who figured out its true identity, immediately took refuge in a tree.
Meanwhile, Nam Yu-jun, who ran away wearing the ‘Hermit’ badge, left behind no trace.
‘I missed it, but I’m sure the culprit is here. However, he seems to have gotten a bit stronger than in his previous life.’
Nam Yu-jun, who has become even stronger than when I first saw him in my previous life.
It wasn’t an easy opponent, as he was receiving divine assistance.
Meanwhile, a joyful voice was heard from the side.
“Wow, it seems he ran away. Not bad. Now is the time to let him go.”
As Seo Kang-rim dodged upward, Dokgo Jun also followed behind him.
He seemed quite amused by the whole situation.
Dokgo Jun looked at him and smiled brightly.
“By the way, Seo Kang-rim, you have a keen eye for detail. You evacuated immediately after seeing it. Thanks to you, I survived. At first, I was wondering what was going on.”
“By the way, why are you acting so friendly again?”
Until recently, he had treated Seo Kang-rim like a non-existent person, but now he was treating him like an incomparable colleague.
Seo Kang-rim wasn’t particularly surprised by such changes.
‘I thought that since Cheon Gu-nam is dead, he would be interested in me again. He must have heard that I saved Yun Gyul-wool.’

Dokgo Jun was currently wandering around looking for the main character.
In the meantime, since Cheon Gu-nam had disappeared, it was obvious that they would look for a new candidate.
The only person who stands out in this educational facility right now is Seo Kang-rim.
So it was quite predictable that he would approach again.
“Didn’t you say that Mr. Cheon Gu-nam was the main character?”
“I’m sorry. I think I was mistaken.”
Dokgo Jun smiled brightly and continued speaking.
“Actually, I was a little disappointed in you. If it was Hoe-Bing-Hwan, there’s no way he would be so helpless in the Hwa-Tang room.”
“So?”
“That’s right… … But you still have the qualities of a protagonist. I think the protagonist I raise wouldn’t be bad either?”
Dokgo Jun’s eyes glowed ominously.
It was a look in his eyes that made it hard to tell whether it was goodwill, malice, or curiosity.
“I like you. I want to be the two top protagonists with you.”
“Find someone else.”
“All the others are just worthless extras. No personality, no story… … So let’s make up again!”
Dokgo Jun had an excited look on his face.
Seo Kang-rim glanced at Dokgo Jun and said.
“I want you to trust me? You’ve betrayed me several times already. Aren’t you still lying to me now?”
“No. But it is also a situation that is suspicious enough.”
“You know it yourself.”
At Seo Kang-rim’s words, Dokgo Jun looked troubled.
A glimpse into how to gain Seo Kang-rim’s trust.
“What should I do to make you trust me? What should I do? Should I catch that guy from before?”
Dokgo Jun volunteered to be a helper.
This was also the situation that Seo Kang-rim had wanted.
Seo Kang-rim spoke as if giving him a chance.
“I don’t feel like it, but let me trust you one more time.”
As he said that, Seo Kang-rim opened the Magic Mirror and pointed to a certain place.
That’s the place where the entrance to Area 4 is located.
While searching the Demon Realm, no weapons were found, but the entrance to Area 4 was confirmed.
“There is an entrance to another area here. There is a chance that Nam Yu-jun will escape, so go and wait.”
Since Nam Yu-jun’s identity was revealed, there was a chance he would run away.
If you’re unlucky, you might end up being kicked out.
Dokgo Jun said with shining eyes.
“You’re quick to grasp the situation, Seo Kang-rim. And you even figured out the location of the door to Area 4.”
At Dokgo Jun’s speed, even if Nam Yu Jun was currently heading to the exit, he would have arrived first.
Considering Nam Yoo-jun’s personality, it was more likely that he would have come to eliminate the witness, Seo Kang-rim, rather than running away.
Dokgo Jun thought about something and then opened his mouth.
“Then I’ll cover that. What will Seo Kang-rim do?”
“It might still be inside, so I’m trying to find it.”
“Wouldn’t it be a bit lacking if I were to do it alone?”
As Dokgo Jun had figured out, Seo Kang-rim and Nam Yu-jun’s abilities were on par.
A situation where you might fail if you do it alone.
But Seo Kang-rim only had a cold face.
“I’ll take care of my own business. Just move quickly. If Nam Yu-jun runs away in the meantime, it’ll all be your fault.”
“There’s no way I’d miss out. I want to fight with you, but I’ll hold back this time.”
After saying that, Dokgo Jun stretched his body and started running through the forest at lightning speed.
After sending Dokgo Jun away, Seo Kang-rim also took action right away.
‘Nam Yu-jun and I have similar skills. If I find that weapon, I’ll be at an advantage.’
Currently, we have explored nearly 90% of the magic realm.
What he was looking for was right in front of him.
After checking the map of the demon kingdom, Seo Kang-rim quickly took action.
* * *
‘Breathe, I can’t breathe… …!’
Nam Yu-jun was running away with all his might, unable to even breathe properly.
It was so painful that my insides felt like they were burning from holding my breath, but I couldn’t bring myself to breathe.
After running for a long time, he finally let out a heavy breath.
‘What on earth are those two?’
I was relieved to see Seo Kang-rim walking alone, but I never thought he would have company.
Not only was Dokgo Jun’s skill extraordinary, but his inexplicable madness was so great that even the murderer Nam Yu-jun took a step back.
‘There are two witnesses. What should we do now?’
He touched his dry lips.
They did sign a statement promising not to be held responsible if anyone died or was injured within the educational facility.
But the protectorate could not be lenient on indiscriminate killings.
‘Should I just leave like this? No, that would be a waste. It would be better to eliminate the witnesses… … .’
While Nam Yu-jun was lost in thought, he heard a voice calling for him from nearby.
“Yoojun- Where are you, Yoojun?”
It was the voice of the people of District 4.
Nam Yu-jun, hearing that voice, jumped up.
He ran towards Joo Hye-ryeong.
“I, I’m here!”
“Ah. I found it. It’s dangerous these days, so you shouldn’t go out alone… … .”
“That guy was the culprit!”
When Nam Yu-jun spoke in an urgent voice, Joo Hye-ryeong looked bewildered.
Nam Yu-jun’s body is covered in wounds from a short fight.
Nam Yu-jun spoke in a voice that sounded like he was about to cry.
“That guy named Seo Kang-rim! He attacked me and his colleagues, trying to kill them.”
“what?”
Joo Hye-ryeong’s face turned ashen.
In the meantime, people came quickly and treated Nam Yu-jun’s wounds.
While receiving treatment, the people in District 4 started getting very excited and started talking.
“The culprit was in District 2 after all!”
“We have to catch him quickly!”
Joo Hye-ryeong also listened to the story with a fierce expression and nodded as if agreeing.
“Let’s search this area in pairs. They probably can’t get very far.”
“I, I’ll go with you too!”
Nam Yu-jun jumped up from his seat and said.
People seemed worried.
“Mr. Yoo-jun, wouldn’t it be better to rest? You’re injured… … .”
“No. We have to catch him quickly! That way, our people won’t get hurt anymore… … .”
The people of District 4 seemed to be impressed by the sight.
One man patted his shoulder as if he was proud of him.
“As expected, you are student Yujun. Then, let’s go together.”
“yes!”
People split into groups of two and dispersed.
The person accompanying Nam Yu-jun was worried about him the whole time.
“But don’t push yourself too hard. I’ll go ahead for now, so Yoojun, follow behind.”
“It might be dangerous… … .”
“Haha, I was exercising before I came here.”
The other person laughed heartily and started walking ahead.
Nam Yu-jun watched the scene with a smile and then closed his eyes for a moment.
“That’s why I’m saying that it’s dangerous to take the lead.”
When he opened his eyes, his red pupils flashed.
