Episode 128: The Darkness Approaches (4)
128. The Darkness Coming (4)
“Wouldn’t it be better if it came out like this earlier?”
Jo Yu-sik opened the window, leaving his wife and son running to Kang Hyeon.
“Hey, this is the 7th floor. Is that okay?”
Kang Hyun said with a playful face.
“Let’s just wait and see!”
Jo Yoo-sik jumped out the window, saying some cliche lines.
Kang Hyun did not chase after her but leisurely watched her.
Because the guild members were already waiting outside.
Jo Yoo-sik had to leave it to them and Kang Hyeon had to deal with the problem that came to him.
“Umm…”
A sharp blade that came right up to my nose.
The kitchen knife that had just been preparing a delicious dinner was now reaching out to cut Kang-Hyeon.
It seemed like he should run away immediately, but Kang Hyun just stood there blankly and watched.
-Kyaaang!
The kitchen knife that touched Kang Hyun was shattered into pieces.
“I can feel the magic, but in terms of physical strength, it’s no different from that of an ordinary person?”
The woman reached out again, not showing any sign of panic even though the knife was broken.
-Pfft!
A slender fist that struck Kang Hyun’s face.
The broken side was, of course, the fist.
Kang Hyun continued his analysis while stroking his chin.
“It looks like he’s stretching his muscles beyond their limits, seeing as he’s hitting them so hard their bones are shattered…”
Following this, Jo Yu-sik’s son also attacked Kang Hyeon, but there was no difference.
“Are you completely unconscious? Why can you feel the magic? You’re clearly a normal person.”
Kang Hyun, who was lost in thought, suddenly grabbed the two.
“I’m going to die like this. Tsk tsk.”
The hat’s body was a mess because it had been attacked without sparing its own body.
His entire body was covered in wounds, and there were many places where his bones were broken and swollen.
Even in that state, they only focused on attacking Kang Hyeon.
“Just lie down for a moment.”
Kang Hyun knocked the hat out by lightly hitting the nape of his neck and laid it on the floor.
“Should we go out for now? He must have caught them by now.”
You can ask Cho Yu-sik for more details.
The moment Kang Hyun thought that and was about to jump out the window, the hat that had been lying on the floor began to convulse.
“What is this? Why is it like this?”
Kang-Hyeon was flustered as he watched them tremble as if they had been possessed by a shaman.
“You can’t die. Come to your senses!”
For a moment, I thought about using my finger water gun magic to wake him up, but somehow I felt like that wouldn’t work.
“Ugh, ugh..!”
Fortunately, the hat calmed down quickly.
A hat that doesn’t move and keeps the eyes turned upside down.
Kang Hyun-i pushed his face close to check the condition of the two.
“Um… is it okay..?”
At that moment, the woman’s mouth suddenly opened, and a giant insect crawled out of it.
“Eww! Shit!”
A creature the size of a fist, but hundreds of times more disgusting than a cockroach.
Kang Hyun fell to his knees in shock.
“I’m surprised. Haa… What is this dirty thing?”
Kang Hyun frowned at the bug.
“Huh? Why is it like this!?”
The wriggling bug suddenly started moving at incredible speed and stuck to Kang-Hyeon’s body.
The bug tried to dig into Kang-Hyeon’s flesh with its sharp teeth.
“Where did you get that dirty mouth from?”
Of course, Kang Hyun’s hard skin didn’t even show any signs of bruising.
Kang Hyun stomped on a bug and it burst.
And then he came out holding the remaining one in his hand.
Although it was uncomfortable, I couldn’t think of a safer way to transport it.
“I see you organized it well.”
As I came out, I saw the guild members who had captured Jo Yoo-sik.
“Yes. I knocked him out for now.”
“Good job. Contact Team Leader Shin Tae-gil and tell him to sort this out.”
“All right.”
Jo Yu-sik was lying on the floor with foam at the mouth.
“Didn’t something like a bug come out of that old man’s mouth?”
“Are you talking about a bug?”
“It looks like this.”

Kang Hyun-i shoved the hot bug he had just caught into Shin Sung-ah’s hand.
“Hmm, it looks strange. Where did you find it?”
“It came out of the mouths of the Jo Yoo-sik family.”
“Oh…”
It was at that time that Shinsungah was looking at it with interest.
A scream erupted from behind.
“Gyaaaah! What is that dirty, disgusting thing!?”
Yoon Na-rae was acting arrogant and excited.
“My eardrums almost fell off. Why are you yelling and making a fuss? I want to hit you.”
“Do you think I’m not going to scream right now? Get that dirty bug out of here! Step on it! Kill it! Quickly!”
“Where did this order come from?!”
Kang Hyun, who was frowning, threw the bug he was holding at Yoon Na Rae.
Yoon Na-rae was startled and pulled out her sword at incredible speed, cutting the insect in two.
“Eww! It’s green! Disgusting!”
Yoon Na-rae looked at the blood on the sword and felt disgusted.
“Huh, huh..!? It won’t work…”
Kang Hyun made a stupid expression as he looked at that sight.
“Mr. Kang Hyun. That bug just now. Is there any more left?”
Shin Sung-ah asked with a serious expression.
“no…”
The bug, which could be considered an important clue, disappeared in vain.
An Yu-seong, who was watching from the side, held his stomach and giggled.
“Sigh, shit…”
Kang Hyun sighed and roughly ran his hands through his hair.
“Now that it’s come to this, the only one left is Jo Yu-sik.”
Kang Hyun approached the unconscious Jo Yu-sik and used his finger water gun magic.
The water shot from his fingers flowed down Jo Yu-sik’s face.
“Brother. What are you doing?”
“We have to wake him up and kick him. Now we have no other clues besides this guy.”
That was when.
Yoon Na-rae came running out of breath after seeing Kang Hyun shoot water.
“Give me your hand.”
“Why again?”
“Do you know how sticky that bug’s blood is!? If it sticks to my knife like this… Ugh! I might go crazy!”
Yoon Na-rae shivered as if she didn’t even want to imagine it.
“Ah… is that so…”
Tendons began to appear on Kang Hyun’s forehead.
Yoon Na-rae, who couldn’t see the sight, grabbed Kang Hyun’s hand and placed it on her sword.
The blood was washed away by the trickling water, and Yoon Na-rae let out a sigh of relief.
“Whew, can’t you make the water pressure a little stronger?”
“It won’t work. It will work.”
Kang Hyun smiled happily and increased the water pressure.
Now, Kang Hyun’s eyes had completely rolled back, reaching a point where only the whites of his eyes could be seen.
Yoon Na-rae still didn’t notice.
“Phew, I finally finished washing up. Why did you throw such a dirty thing there! I thought I was going to die from the discomfort.”
“Why didn’t you just die?”
“What did you say?”
Yoon Na-rae turned her head at Kang Hyun’s words.
Yoon Na-rae met Kang Hyun’s eyes and only then understood the situation.
“If you had just died, it would have been easier for you and me.”
Kang Hyun speaks with a grin on his face and his eyes rolled back.
Yoon Na-rae smiled awkwardly.
“Haha… This sucks…”

“Jo Yoo-sik has been caught.”
-Is that guy Kang Hyeon?
“yes…”
-There’s a pesky bug hanging around.
The voice in his head should have been emotionless, but the man felt deep anger within it.
-What happened to the goblin he found?
“We killed them all. We thoroughly checked the entry of the villagers, so there won’t be any problems.”
The man explained desperately.
-I haven’t gathered enough strength yet. It’s just the beginning, so things can’t go wrong.
“What should I do about the milk?”
-Jo Yoo-sik must not be caught now. Send his guild members.
“That might not be enough…”
-What do you mean? I clearly heard there were four of them.
Normally, it would be unthinkable to find fault with the owner of the voice.
But now I had to do it.
The man mustered up the courage to speak up.
“Kang Hyun and his group are no ordinary guys. They are on a different level from the power users scattered around here.”
-Are you saying that even with over 300 people it won’t work?
“It might be difficult…”
-Then I will give you an apostle.
The man was startled by the word apostle.
“Are you saying that you are sending a noble person!?”
-Okay. So make sure to finish it.
“Okay, thank you very much!”
The anxiety that had filled him just a moment ago was nowhere to be found, and the man’s face was now filled with faith and awe.
**
An abandoned factory located near Jo Yu-sik’s house.
“Huh! Do you think I’ll open my mouth just because of something like that!? That’s ridiculous.”
Cho Yu-sik, tied to a chair, spat and spoke passionately.
“Sir, don’t get excited. I haven’t done anything yet.”
Kang Hyun looked at Jo Yu-sik with a bewildered expression.
“Huh! You may be feeling arrogant now. Just wait. The day will come when you will regret it. When that day comes, you will tremble and pray for salvation, but it will be too late.”
“Anyway, the repertoire of these villain kids never changes. It’s so clichéd, I’m dying.”
Kang Hyun frowned, picked his ear, and continued speaking.
“Sir. Let’s get along well. Do you want to say it correctly? Or just say it? If you answer well and I don’t feel bad, I might let you live. But you’ll probably die anyway.”
The group looked at Kang Hyeon with mysterious eyes.
‘Who the hell is the villain…’
Kang Hyun, unaware of this fact, looked at Jo Yu-sik indifferently.
“Just kill him! No matter what you do, the result will be the same.”
“Oh, I told you I’ll take care of that.”
“Kill me! I’m going to live forever anyway. I’m not afraid of death!”
“Oh, really. You really talk a lot.”
Kang Hyun slapped Jo Yu-sik on the cheek.
In an instant, pure white teeth popped out along with blood.
“Ugh, ugh…”
“Jo Yoo-sik. From now on, open your mouth only when I tell you to. Otherwise, your teeth will fall out like this. If you understand, nod your head.”
“Kill him!”
“ha…”
There was no communication.
Kang Hyun sighed as he looked at Jo Yu-sik, who was completely consumed by madness.
“What are they doing in churches these days that makes people go so crazy?”
“Mr. Kang Hyun. That’s not a church, it’s a cult.”
“Really? Anyway, this is annoying.”
Even while Kang Hyun and Shin Sung Ah were talking, Jo Yu Sik kept talking nonstop.
“There is not much time left. When He comes, everything will be purified and this world will be reborn!”
“Yes, yes. Okay, let’s talk about family. Don’t you think your family is precious to you too?”
Even though Kang Hyun brought up his family, Jo Yu-sik didn’t budge.
“After death, my body will enjoy eternal life anyway. My wife and son will understand.”
“This is totally ridiculous.”
“Brother. What are you going to do?”
Kang Hyun shook his head to An Yu-seong’s question.
“What can I do? I have to beat him until he comes to his senses. Nine times out of ten, if I beat him, he will come to his senses.”
“That’s true.”
Kang Hyun, who had gathered his thoughts, approached Jo Yu-sik.
“Do you think I’d be afraid because of that!? That’s ridiculous.”
“Yes, yes. I understand.”
Kang Hyun grabbed Jo Yu-sik’s head.
“Keu, keuuuu… Kuaaaaak! Kwaaah!”
“Tell me. If you don’t, your head will explode.”
Jo Yu-sik screamed at the tremendous pressure he felt on his head.
“Looking at it, you seem to be quite leveled and strong. If you treat it properly, you could probably do it all day. Can’t we just go our separate ways?”
It was when Kang Hyun spoke softly.
“Brother. What do you think is coming?”
An Yu-seong approached and grabbed Kang Hyeon.
“Huh? What is that…”
At that moment, Kang Hyun also began to feel the magic.
“Right. Wait a minute, how many are there?”
“What? Huh? Isn’t this something I should run away from?”
Likewise, Yoon Na-rae felt the approaching magic and was flustered.
“Why are you running away when you have the chance to solve everything at once? If you want to run away, run away alone.”
“Wake up! Those guys running now are probably at least 300 strong! Hurry up! Let’s go out there quickly!”
“300 is a good number. I’m going to have a blast after a long time.”
An Yu-seong smiled at Kang Hyun’s words.
“Brother. I told you it would be fun.”
“Detectives have their trials.”
The last line was Shin Sung-ah’s line.
“Whew, why did I come to a place like this and suffer like this…”
Yoon Na-rae shook her head and sighed.
“Ugh. I don’t know.”
It’s not something you can just run away from alone.
“Give me a bonus when I finish this! I think I’ll relieve this stress if I buy the limited edition girl magic costume!”
Yoon Na-rae gripped her cane tightly and her determination burned.
“If you’re still alive, I’ll think about it.”
Of course, Kang Hyun had no intention of giving anything.
