#Episode 79
It was simple.
Hong Hyun was now in a state of near death.
It was safe to assume that it was a corpse. In this state, 30 seconds?
After about 20 seconds, the heart stops.
If I hadn’t been there, it definitely would have happened.
He reached out and placed his hand on Hong Hyun’s head.
“You know you’re lucky, Inma.”
As soon as I finished speaking, the natural energy started to react. Soon, the natural energy was sucked into my hand, and soon flowed into Hong Hyun’s body.
Hong Hyun’s eyes, which had been blurry, become clearer.
The holes in the body that were punctured are filled. Cells become activated and the heart beats violently. The innate energy that was visible all the way to the floor is filled with natural energy. I added a word about this part.
“Hyun-ah.”
“……yes.”
“Don’t you know what a congenital trait is?”
“I don’t know.”
He was confident, but what can he do? In fact, there is nothing more ridiculous than claiming to know something you don’t. He continued speaking silently.
“The primordial energy, your own energy that sustains your existence, without the innate energy, a person will die.”
“You said it was very important.”
“That’s right. I filled the vessel that the innate energy will enter with natural energy. You have to make all of this with your own. Go home today and meditate without moving for a few days. But.”
For a moment, I looked at the huge scar on Hong Hyun’s face and shoulder.
“Have you ever had a makeover?”
“… … Yes, I did it once when I was level 500.”
“But the scar is still there? It seems like it was quite a meaningful scar?”
Hong Hyun kept his mouth shut. He seemed a little surprised.
I don’t know why you’re surprised, but to give you a rough explanation, this is correct.
To put it simply, a body transformation is a restructuring of the body.
But what is the basis of that reconstruction?
It’s the soul.
So then, what constitutes the soul? Beyond the innate energy, it is ‘experience.’
Experiences that are deeply imprinted on the soul, or more precisely, wounds that are deeply imprinted on the soul, will not disappear even if one undergoes a complete transformation.
It’s the same in my case.
I’ve had plastic surgery dozens of times, but the scars on my body are still the same.
That’s because each and every scar is meaningful to me.
I just stood up from my seat.
“They’ll have a private jet waiting at the airport over there. You can go on that. Um, can you go?”
“… … Yes, you can go.”
“Okay then.”
“… … What are you going to do, Mr. Jin Shi-hoo?”
“Me? I should run back here like I came here. Or maybe I should meet someone and go while I’m here.”
Hong Hyun didn’t bother to ask who it was.
Hong Hyun immediately bowed his head deeply toward me.
“I will never forget this favor until I die.”
“No one who says things like that will keep their word. They all die before me.”
“… … .”
“Live long so you can repay the favor.”
“… … Now that we’re on the subject, I like you now more than your doppelganger, Jin Shi-hoo.”
I was terrified.
“Isn’t that obvious? Doppelganger, that bastard is a total piece of non-flammable trash, he doesn’t even burn.”
“… … That is true.”
anyway.
“I think it would be better to call me ‘hyung’ rather than ‘you.’ From now on, I’ll call you ‘hyung.’”
“… … Yes, brother.”
“Now go. Hey, Mexico.”
“yes yes?”
“Next time, don’t throw dirt in people’s faces. That’s a really bad habit.”
“… … .”
“If you tell me something good, I should thank you.”
Gabriela blinks. This guy is really crazy, that kind of expression. She doesn’t care.
“… … Thank you… ….”
“Yeah, you’ve had a hard time too. Go back to Korea. Go and take care of my little sister.”
Gabriela and Hong Hyun nodded awkwardly and used the teleporter to head towards the airport.
I stayed there for a while and let out a sigh.
I guess so.
I think we should kill all the apostles we can catch in advance.
According to the investigation conducted by Chief Secretary Yoon Young-soo, there are currently a total of five apostles in Mexico.
I plan to kill all five of them.
And from Mexico to Brazil.
Today I will sweep away the South American continent.

I picked up the watch and contacted Helena.
The beep went off exactly twice.
-… …Why again?
“What are you doing.”
-… … I’m drinking blood.
“I’m in Mexico now.”
-I know. You crossed the ocean again? There’s chaos at the air force base.
“Really? I feel sorry for no reason.”
-You don’t have to do that. The deputy commander there is our kid. We’ve taken care of him, but why?
“I’m going to clean up the Apostle pups around here today. If you have nothing else to do, do you want to join me?”
There was a loud crash and a sound of something falling from the other side.
-Oh, shit. My coffee… …. But where are you talking about nearby?
“First of all, South America.”
-Surely all of South America?
“Why? You don’t like it?”
-… … I have figured out their location to some extent, but they are quick-witted, so we have to act quickly. In fact, some of them have already hidden.
Helena, who seemed to be thinking about something for a moment, continued speaking.
-This needs to be done thoroughly. You all know the locations of the apostles on the Mexican side, right?
“I know.”
-You’re lucky.
so.
“Do you want to do it or not?”
-I will. But please spare at least half of it.
What is half?
“Depending on what you do, I can give you more than half. Okay?”
-… … It’s really refreshing. Okay. Let’s do it together. I’ll start tracking you right now.
After turning off the watch, he immediately left the seat.
My destination is Cancun, Mexico.
* * *
Cancun is the largest city in the state of Quintana Roo, located in southeastern Mexico.
This area, which is also a tourist destination, has a two-star hotel called the Grand Royal Cancun.
The manager there, Artur Herrera, was a tall, muscular middle-aged man with a thick mustache.
And now he was visited by an unexpected being.
“Is that you? The manager here?”
The man wearing the white mask was clearly showing an unusual temperament at first glance. The temperament I am talking about here is not that of a simple punk, but rather the temperament of a truly crazy person.
The most important thing is that Arthur knows this man, even though his face is hidden by a mask.
I pretended not to know as much as possible.
He asked, swallowing hard.
“… … How did you come here?”
The answer I hear is amazing.
“You go to George.”
He came all the way from Korea to Mexico.
‘… … There is no record of him taking an airplane, so did he come across the ocean?’
He laughed awkwardly.
“… … Sir, it would be embarrassing if you did this when we first met. I’ll pretend this never happened, so please go back. There are many people watching here.”
Normally, there’s no way I would just send it back.
This is Mexico. No matter how much of a tourist destination it is, Mexico is Mexico.
If he were a normal person, he would have been buried somewhere quiet or beaten until he begged for help a million times.
But this man was not someone who could be beaten or quietly buried.
The man in the white mask, no, Jin Shihou, spoke with a tone mixed with laughter.
“hey.”
“……yes?”
“I’m going to make a friendly offer. You must accept it unconditionally. There can be no refusal. Do you understand?”
Do I have to accept it unconditionally? Then isn’t this a threat rather than a proposal?
But strangely, I was curious.
What the heck is this ‘proposal’?
“I will kill you nicely. I will not torture you, I will just let you leave this world cleanly and painlessly. So, call all the apostles in Mexico here now.”
“… … What is an apostle? I don’t know anything, sir.”
“Look at this kid.”
Jin Shihou reached out his hand. Arthur tried to dodge, but he couldn’t. There were two reasons. One was that Jin Shihou’s hand was too fast, and the second was that Arthur reacted too late.
Jin Shi-hoo grabbed his mustache just like that.
Without hesitation, Jin Shi-hoo lifts her cheek with his other hand.
Taaak-!!
Blood is splattering.
I swung it once more.
Taaaaak-!!
My cheek burst and my mouth exploded. Four or five teeth came out.
“Hey. People talk like talk… … .”
“… … Let go of this.”
Jin Shi-hoo, whose words had been interrupted in the middle, let out a sigh. The murderous intent that Arthur was emitting was quite thick.
“This won’t work. You’ll have to take more hits.”
Arthur immediately reached out. He wanted to kick Jin Shihou’s arm away while simultaneously attacking Jin Shihou’s neck.
Although Arthur was known as a ‘normal person’, his current actions were definitely not those of a normal person. He was even less of a normal Awakened person.
But the opponent is Jin Shihou.
Crash-!!
Arthur’s arm, which had been stretched out, breaks in the middle. The bone sticks out. Jin Shi-hoo stretches his leg.
Paaaaak-!!
Arthur’s body flies far away and crashes into the desk.
Jin Shihou walked.
Thud thud.
Jin Shi-hoo, who was walking like that, turned his head to the side. A sword made of mana passed by Jin Shi-hoo’s face exactly one inch away. He then lifted his foot and slammed it down on Arthur’s face.
Kwaaaaang-!!
Arthur groaned and vomited blood. His appearance was no longer that of an ordinary person. He was like one of the common apostles, with horns and wings growing out of him.
Paaaaak-! Paaaaak-!
Boom-! Boom-!!
Jin Shihou beat him up like crazy.
With fists, with feet.
After hitting Arthur about twelve times, he picked up the desk that had collapsed and brought it down on Arthur’s head.
Kwaaaaang-!!
“Cough.”
Two broken table legs fall next to Jin Shi-hoo. He grabs Arthur’s hair with one hand and picks up the wooden leg with the other, swinging it at the bastard’s head.
Kwaaang-!!
The tree shattered and a piece of bone sprang out of Arthur’s head. He didn’t care. He swung the half-broken tree again. Bwaaak-! Only the handle remained.
Jin Shi-hoo bent down and grabbed the remaining desk leg that was on the floor and swung it again.
To be exact, I tried to swing it.
“Okay… …Just a moment!”
If it weren’t for Arthur’s desperate scream, I would have swung it like that. And if I had swung it like that, there was a 100% chance that Arthur’s head would have exploded.
“Oh, this guy’s temper. I almost killed him.”
Arthur felt goosebumps at Jin Shihou’s softly muttering words, but that was it.
“… … Is it enough to just call the apostles from Mexico?”
“uh.”
“… … .”
“Look at that kid, he’s got his head on his sleeve. Oh, right. You can call them all and join forces. Honestly, it doesn’t make sense for you to play with me alone. Just like you just saw.”
“… … .”
“This is your chance. A chance to attack me with all the apostles in Mexico. If you succeed, you will be the hero who killed me, and if you fail, unlike the others, you will leave this world without pain. It’s almost like winning the lottery.”
