Episode 146
146. Human trafficking
Mbako, a member of a human trafficking ring, was embarrassed.
‘And I didn’t even see the attack.’
His gaze turned slightly downward.
A taxi driver who had been doing business with the organization became a corpse in an instant.
‘sickle? ‘This is what happened with that stretchy scythe?’
It didn’t matter how the scythe stretched.
What’s important is that it was so fast that I couldn’t even react.
gulp-
Even though he was holding an automatic rifle, Mbako was nervous.
Speed beyond superhumans, weapons beyond common sense, and a youthful-looking face.
Looking at it overall, it was clear that he was a player I had only heard about.
‘A player… … ‘f*ck you, I’ve played against players in my lifetime.’
I thought he was an ordinary person in his 40s because he had a bushy beard, but it turned out that he was deliberately pretending to be an ordinary person to find out his location.
“you… … What is it? “Are you a police officer?”
Mbako, who had been speaking without thinking, corrected his words in his mind.
‘No, that can’t be possible. Because we control all the police in the area. Above all, that guy is Asian, right?’
Mbako aimed his gun once again and did not take his eyes off his opponent.
Even though I was a player, I had nothing to fear as long as I had an invincible automatic rifle.
If you have to, just shoot.
So, as long as you’re human, won’t you die?
“Who are you? “What organization are you from!”
“If I tell you who it is, will you know? “Just come here calmly.”
‘Would you go if it were you?’
Mbako struggled to swallow the words that rose up in his throat.
There was no need to stimulate the player.
“Aren’t you coming? “If you don’t come, I’ll go.”
As Ryumin took a step, Mbako made up his mind.
I decided to just kill the opponent, no matter what their identity was.
“die! “Xibaaaal!”
Tu-ta-ta-ta-ta-tang-!
Mbako anticipated this even before pulling the trigger.
After a while, the opponent who has become a beehive will run after you, spilling blood.
After all, aren’t players human too?
All people are equal in front of a bullet.
But something different than expected happened.
‘Are you okay?’
Even though I aimed and shot accurately, the opponent was standing still.
Mbako, who blinked as if he had seen a ghost, shot again.
Ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta!
This time I could see it clearly.
A man moving his body around to avoid bullets.
‘Well, I’m avoiding all of that… … ?’
Thirteen bullets rained down in two seconds, but not a single one reached the opponent.
A sight you cannot believe even with your own eyes.
Ryumin sneered at his surprised opponent.
‘I guess you just trusted the gun. ‘No way.’
Ryumin’s agility increased with the Rune of Balance and the Rune of Massacre to 1,176.
Even if it is an automatic rifle that is faster than a pistol, it is not difficult to avoid.
‘Moreover, there are runes of future poetry.’
Ryumin sneered and took steps again.
“Oh, don’t come! Do not come! “You monster!”
They fired bullets once again.
Tick- Tick-
Before I knew it, I had used up so much that I couldn’t even pull the trigger.
“Now, load… … .”
At that time, I was trying to replace the magazine in the belt with shaking hands.
“omg!”
Mbako, seeing the opponent approaching right in front of him, got scared and retreated.
“I guess there are no bullets?”
“Hee, hee!”
Mbako took a step back and fell on his butt.
Ryumin didn’t do anything.
I just watched him tremble in fear.
“Yamti.”
Yamti, who was hiding behind him, peeked out his head.
“Yes, master.”

“Take control of this guy. And order him to do it. “Guide me to the organization boss.”
* * *
Jumble-jump-
As Mbako was walking, his colleagues armed with automatic rifles came running towards him.
“Mbaco! “You were here?”
“Suddenly I heard a gunshot, what happened?”
To that question, Mbako shrugged his shoulders as if it was no big deal.
“The people captured through human trafficking rebelled. “I scared them by shooting wildly on the floor.”
“By any chance, are the people you captured the ones behind you?”
Mbako slowly turned his head.
Behind him were Ryumin and Yamti.
“Oh, right.”
Even though Mbako admitted it, his colleagues could not erase their doubts.
Who would leave a kidnapped person behind?
What if I get attacked or run away?
‘Strange.’
What was most decisive was the expression on their faces that showed no signs of fear even though they had been kidnapped.
“These are people who were captured for human trafficking? Really?”
“Is that so?”
“There’s something strange about that… … .”
The colleagues could no longer speak.
Because Ryumin’s scythe mercilessly cut off their heads.
Tuk-tuk-tuk-
Ryumin said calmly as he looked at the heads falling in the order they were cut.
“Keep going. “To where the boss is.”
It’s time to start cleaning up the trash.
* * *
A musty basement that doesn’t even get sunlight.
Subina, an ordinary 30-year-old woman, shed tears behind bars.
‘If I had been born two months later, I would have become a player. If so… … I wouldn’t have been caught in this hellish place… … .’
Usually, when you become a player, you despair at the fact that you are living a terminally ill life, but Subina was different.
Rather, the fact that he did not become a player by a few months remained a regret.
The reason I was caught in this hellish place was simply because I had no strength.
‘How much time has passed?’
She doesn’t know how many days it has been since she was kidnapped, but she has seen a lot here.
They would beat women like cattle because they didn’t like their looks, or gang members would drag women away with greedy eyes.
Then, when the women returned, their eyes were wide open, as if someone had lost a screw.
It was as obvious as fire what had happened.
Occasionally, a person I had never met would appear and I would point him out and take him with me, as if I were picking something out at a market.
Not a single person came back after being singled out like that.
‘Is it still better than other people? Because I haven’t had anything happen to me yet… … .’
Subina recalled what the person who seemed to be the boss said when she was first captured here.
-Your face and body are completely my style, right? Guys. Don’t mess with this bitch. After I finish the overdue work, I’m going to start raping her.
-Okay, boss. I will take good care of it in the meantime. Hehehe.
He was nominated by his boss because he liked what he looked like.
That was the reason it never happened.
‘I heard you clearly. They’re going to rape me.’
Subina hugged her knees and buried her head.
Is this how a cow feels when it knows it is being slaughtered?
After knowing that something terrible was going to happen in the future, I couldn’t help but feel anxious every hour and nervous about every sound of my footsteps.
I thought it was my turn this time.
‘If I were a player, I wouldn’t have been treated like this… … .’
A feeling of helplessness ate away at Subina’s spirit.
‘I’d rather bite my tongue and die… … .’
I thought about committing suicide several times, but I was so afraid of the pain that would come with it.
However, considering the pain he will face in the future, suicide may seem right.
‘What should I do… … .’
At that time, I heard footsteps in the quiet basement.
He walked quickly, as if he wasn’t giving me time to think.
‘iced coffee. Wow, here we come. Boo, he must be the boss.’
However, what I heard was the voice of a woman I had never heard before.
“uh? “Are there people here too?”
Subina, who had closed her eyes out of fear, slowly opened her eyes when she heard the unfamiliar foreign language.
What a woman it was.
An Asian woman wearing a ridiculous outfit.
‘That outfit… … ‘Could it be a player?’
Pak-!
Subina realized as she broke the iron cage lock with the dagger in her hand.
Power beyond the scope of ordinary people.
That woman is a player.
But why break the lock?
Subina didn’t even know she had been saved, perhaps because she thought there was no hope.
“Come out. “Come out quickly.”
Yamti gestured, and Subina walked out with a puzzled look on her face.
“Where are you taking me?”
“What is he saying now? “Just follow me.”
“… … ?”
When Subina remained silent despite being told to follow, Yamti desperately pulled her hand.
The two people came up from the musty basement and came out of the building.
There was a sparse forest and a space that looked like a vacant lot.
There, people were gathered there, chatting under the light of the street lamps.
‘W-what is it? scared.’
Subina was still on guard, but her expression soon relaxed a little when she saw the faces of the people gathered in the light.
This is because they were none other than the kidnapped women I saw here.
“What are you all doing here… … .”
Subina was startled when she saw the lump beneath their feet.
It was a human corpse.
The smell of blood came up later and made me nauseous, but that was only for a moment.
“uh?”
When I saw the face of the organization boss who had been threatening me, the feeling of nausea mysteriously disappeared.
This wasn’t the only body.
When I looked more closely, I saw countless corpses that seemed to be members of the organization.
“How is this…” … .”
At that time, a suspicious man wearing a white mask walked towards the Asian player.
“Yamti. “Have all the kidnapped people been released?”
“yes. “I searched through presence detection, but this is the only person here.”
“okay?”
Ryumin counted the people gathered.
There were exactly 12 of them, all women.
All of them were imprisoned in iron bars placed throughout the building.
“hello.”
When Ryumin greeted me in English, all eyes gathered.
Since it was English, which is often used in Nigeria, no one could understand it.
However, perhaps because he was wearing a mask, everyone looked at him with wary eyes.
“There is no need to be so wary. As you can see, we are the players who have come to your rescue. “You’ve already seen the evidence, right?”
Ryumin pointed at his feet and the women nodded.
Those who were worse than the devils who were trampling and giggling at them had become a handful of meat.
The reason Ryu Min didn’t use trace erasing was intentionally to show off to women.
“As you can see, the boss of the organization was killed. All 21 gang members here were also killed. You can rest assured that the complete threat has disappeared. You are free, so to speak. “It means I can go home.”
“Really?”
“Are we really free?”
When asked in disbelief, Ryu Min took out a key from his pocket.
“Here are the car keys I took from the gang members. If you can drive, you can pack it up and go home. Here you go.”
When Ryu Min handed over the keys, the women were in tears, as if it was only then that they realized it was real.
“Hehehehe, I’m glad. “I’m so glad.”
“You can go home now.”
Ryumin knew how painful the women trapped here had been.
Because I heard about their atrocities from the boss of the organization.
‘These are the guys who kidnap seemingly innocent travelers and ordinary people in their 30s or older, keep them captive as if they were breeding them, and then sell them to other organizations for a lot of money. So to speak, it can be said to be the primary provider.’
In the process, it was natural that verbal abuse, assault, threats, and rape occurred as a daily occurrence.
In cases where a virgin was needed, rape was sometimes refrained, but the accounts of the kidnapped women were equally despairing.
‘Anyway, this organization is just a human trafficking group, not IS.’
This is Ryu Min, who has experience in robbing IS in the previous episode to build the reputation of Black Scythe.
However, we do not know exactly where IS’ headquarters is.
Since it was a point organization, it was thought that there was no need to change the location every time and remember it.
‘Anyway, if you work your way up from the bottom of the organization and gradually shake it off, what comes out is IS.’
There are countless offshoot organizations that follow IS, so it is easy to obtain information by robbing a few organizations.
In the previous episode, we found the leader of IS in this way.
Moreover, with Yamti, it will be easier to obtain information and entice them.
“There is no benefit in driving too many cars, so take only two. “There is a risk of being chased, so please abandon the car after driving.”
“Thank you, thank you very much.”
“Thank you for saving me.”
“You are my lifesaver.”
The women cried and expressed their gratitude to Ryumin.
Similarly, Subina, who was saying thank you among the women, asked as if she had not actually asked something important.
“But what is the name of the benefactor who saved us? … .”
Ryu Min smiled behind his mask and spoke to the long-awaited question.
“It’s a black scythe. “You just need to know that.”
“Black scythe… … .”
“I will definitely remember it.”
“I will never forget this for the rest of my life.”
Ryu Min had no hesitation in saying his nickname.
Even an anecdote about saving women from a human trafficking ring would help build Black Scythe’s reputation.
That’s why I wore a mask.
“Please go quickly. “It’s late at night.”
Subina asked as Ryumin waved his hand.
“But Black Scythe isn’t going?”
“I have work to do while staying here. “Please go quickly.”
“Oh, then let’s go first.”
“I will not forget this grace.”
“thank you.”
The women smiled brightly for the first time.
As the women disappeared in the van, only Ryumin and Yamti remained in the organization.
Ryumin removed numerous corpses by erasing traces.
Then he held out his hand to Yamti.
“You took his cell phone, right?”
“yes. Here you are.”
Ryumin picked up the dead boss’s cell phone and sent a text message in English.
[Three women and one man, quickly disposed of at a 20% discount. Please contact me.]
It was a text message sent to a contact in an organization that was listed as a business partner.
A reply came shortly thereafter.
[okay. I will go now.]
“You took the bait.”
Ryumin raised the corners of his mouth and said with a smile.
“Then shall we get ready to welcome guests?”
