95. The perfect plan
The place was perfect.
It is said to be the most deserted among alleys in Suwon.
‘It’s broad daylight, but there’s no problem. ‘It’s a time when there are surprisingly few people around.’
This is definitely the result of observing and understanding it for several days.
‘We’ve already secured a way out.’
Even if a witness appears, there is no problem as long as you hide in a two-story building at the back of the alley.
There was no CCTV so I was able to escape without being noticed.
‘The operation is perfect.’
If he gets even ten steps closer, I plan to explode the corpse hidden in the clothing container.
‘At that time, I cast a fearful curse on the person who staggered after taking damage and bring him to his knees.’
The next step is as simple as stabbing the neck with a dagger.
‘But I have no intention of killing him easily. ‘I’ll play with you as painfully as possible.’
I will definitely make you pay for pissing me off.
With that in mind, Joo Seong-tak stood in the alley and waited.
For the buyer to come closer.
‘Okay, just a little more. ‘Come five steps closer.’
The buyer walked towards him without knowing anything.
The distance to the clothing collection box is getting shorter.
‘Four steps, three steps, two steps… … Now, if you just take one step closer… … !’
at that time.
Stop-
The buyer stopped with one step left.
It was natural that Joo Seong-tak’s expression was crumpled.
‘Crazy, why did it suddenly stop?’
There is a bit of distance between the two to have a conversation.
Still, the buyer stands at a distance and shouts.
“Hey! Are you a seller of immortal skin pieces?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
“What are you doing there? Aren’t you going to make a deal?”
I was dumbfounded when I saw him gesturing as if telling me to come this way.
‘f*ck you, just one more step and you’ll be in the corpse explosion range!’
The guy kept beckoning, but Joo Seong-tak couldn’t get closer.
‘If I get closer, I’ll be in the range of a corpse explosion.’
Corpse explosion inflicts damage to both allies and enemies.
There is no way I can get close.
Of course, you can easily subdue it by giving up exploding corpses and just approaching it and casting a fear curse.
But that’s so boring.
More than anything.
‘That’s not the plan I made.’
The fact that things were not going according to his plan made Joo Seong-tak hesitate.
“What are you doing? Aren’t you coming?”
“Well, could you please come this way? My leg hurts….”
Even though he thought it was a ridiculous excuse, he couldn’t help it.
‘I just need to make it move one step, just one step.’
However, the other person doesn’t even think about taking a step, as if his feet were glued to them.
It’s only one step.
Instead, he crosses his arms and makes a grumpy expression.
“Ai, do you think someone’s leg doesn’t hurt? If it hurts, it hurts me who came all the way.”
“I’m disabled. It’s hard for me to move.”
In the end, I even made the extreme excuse of having a disability.
“Disability? Aside from that, both feet look fine?”
Buyers don’t think about going overboard.
‘That f*cking bastard, didn’t you know he was doing this?’
No, that can’t be true.
Who would imagine that there is a dead body in a clothing bin?
You probably don’t even know that your job is a shaman.
You probably don’t even know that if you take one step, you are destined to die.
‘But why do you keep arguing and not let me get over it!’
The buyer, who was still standing motionless and showing signs of discomfort, shouted.
“F*ck you, you don’t want to do business with me, do you?”
“What, what feet?”
“Is it all a lie that you have items? You b*stard. Ugh.?”
Joo Seong-tak was rather taken aback by his opponent’s sudden advance.
“W-What kind of bullshit….”
“I see you’re embarrassed, so it’s true. You f*cking tried to lure me in and rob me, right? That’s why you keep asking me to come inside, right? You f*cking bastard.”
“…….”
It seemed like there was a misunderstanding, but it was very uncomfortable to hear.

When was the last time you were criticized like this in your life?
This is probably my first time since the military.
‘Chi, let’s calm down. ‘Don’t get caught up in that bastard’s face.’
Joo Seong-tak had to do whatever it took to resolve the misunderstanding.
Anyway, if I make you take one more step, it will all be over.
He can make that bastard kneel at his feet.
“Well, I think you’re misunderstanding something, isn’t that the case?”
“No, it doesn’t matter, motherf*cker.”
“You speak vulgarly.”
“You’re low-class, you’re a brat, and you’re a bastard. Can you say kind words to a bastard who put up false listings and tried to commit robbery?”
“I’ve never lied, have I? Look!”
Joo Seong-tak, who felt aggrieved, took out an item from his inventory.
It is a piece of immortal skin that was put up for sale.
Only then did the opponent’s momentum subside.
“Huh? You really have it?”
Joo Seong-tak smiled inwardly.
‘Good.’ If we use this to lure that bastard to come… … .’
But it was strange.
Isn’t the buyer who was cursing just a moment ago suddenly smiling gently?
‘what? That bastard. Why are you laughing so hard… … .’
At that moment, it felt like a gust of wind blew and the feeling in my arms disappeared.
“what?”
Joo Seong-tak’s arm was lying beneath his feet.
His left arm holding the material item.
“Ah, ah!”
The pain that came later came to my senses.
‘Oh, before you know it? Did we get closer before we knew it? Surely the distance was quite wide?’
When I looked up, the buyer was still standing there with a smile on his face.
‘Now, wait a minute, you didn’t move a single step?’
But how did he get his arm cut off?
When I turned my head to the side, I saw the opponent holding a sword.
When I turned my head back to normal, I saw the other person smiling.
“Two, two people…?”
I was dumbfounded and looked at both sides in turn.
They both wore the same clothes and looked like twins.
“What do you mean, two people? There’s only one person.”
When I turned my head at what the other person said, the guy in front of me had disappeared in the blink of an eye.
The only thing left is the guy holding the sword next to him.
It’s literally like a ghost crying.
In fact, he used his self-immolation to attract attention, but there was no way Joo Seong-tak knew about it.
“Uh, what happened….”
“Do I even have to explain that?”
The person who said that leisurely picked up the material item from his fallen arm.
Then, he naturally puts it in his inventory as if it were his own.
Joo Seong-tak was so dumbfounded that he couldn’t keep his mouth shut for a while.
“What a f*cking bastard!”
Joo Seong-tak, who shouted belatedly, looked into the opponent’s eyes and used the curse of fear.
Curse of fear.
It is the first skill a shaman learns when changing jobs, and it is a deception skill that puts opponents in fear.
Joo Seong-tak easily defeated most of his enemies with this.
The moment I cast the curse, I was so scared that I started shaking.
I had no doubt that the man in front of me would do the same.
But something unexpected happened.
[The other person resisted fear.]
[The curse of fear failed.]
‘what? failure?’
Joo Seong-tak thought that he might have seen it wrong.
Because it was a message I had never seen before in the 6 rounds I had gone through.
“There is nothing to panic. If the success rate is 18%, it is natural that it will fail.”
“What kind of bull….”
Before I could ask what he was talking about, a fist landed on my chin.
“Gagging!”
My teeth fell out and I lost consciousness.
‘What damage… … .’
Surely he wasn’t holding a sword?
But the power of the fist is this much?
‘How high is the strength stat… … .’
Strangely, the feeling of surprise at the other person’s strength was greater than the feeling of pain.
Wow-
“Pugh!”
When he was hit in the stomach, he vomited blood and fell over.
Although Joo Seong-tak was on the verge of death.
Shaaaa-
I felt a warm energy and all my internal and external injuries were recovered.
“Well, what happened?”
“I restored it.”
The other person said calmly.
“I want to beat you up some more.”
Byak-!
Before my jaw could turn, the next fist flew in.
Knock-knock-knock!
He took a step back from the successive one-two punches, staggered, and fell.
Shaaaa-
I almost lost my mind, but my wounds healed and I felt fine again.
“What a f*cking bastard….”
“You haven’t been beaten yet?”
Joo Seong-tak was beaten by his opponent without knowing the reason.
There was a sword, but it seemed like there was no need to use it, so it was only struck with fists.
‘f*ck it, if only I could have cast the curse of fear… … .’
The cooldown for Curse of Fear is 1 minute.
I’ve been hit dozens of times, but I still can’t use it, so it seems like it’s not time yet.
‘You’ve been waiting for one minute, f*ck.’
But even time that seems like it will last forever eventually passes.
An opportunity came to Joo Seong-tak, who had been holding on and holding on.
[The Curse of Fear cooldown has returned.]
‘You fell behind. ‘You bastard.’
It seemed like I wasn’t lucky enough to catch it earlier, but this time… … .
Sigh- Sigh-
“uh?”
Joo Seong-tak was embarrassed for a moment because he couldn’t see anything in front of him.
A terrible pain surged from my eyelids.
“iced coffee!”
“In the afterlife, your parents will shed tears of blood for giving birth to someone like you. Just like you now.”
“Ugh… This b*stard!”
Swish- Swish-
To counterattack, I immediately took out my dagger and swung it, but there was no way my blind attack would hit.
“How dare you try to deceive me?”
Wow!
Joo Seong-tak, pushed by his opponent’s kick, rolled on the floor.
Even though I couldn’t see in front of me, I was able to understand the situation.
‘That bastard, did he stab himself in the eye on purpose during the cooldown? Oh, I guess not.’
Did you know that you can cast a curse of fear only by looking into the eyes?
It must have simply been a coincidence.
‘It f*cking hurts, it f*cking hurts. ‘Anyway, what should I do?’
I couldn’t see and one of my arms was cut off.
If it weren’t for the fact that the other person went to any lengths to treat him, he would have died of shock long ago.
‘Is there really no way to beat that bastard? … ?’
At that time, a clever trick occurred to me.
Don’t you still have one more skill?
‘B*stard. ‘You looked at me too much.’
Even if I die, I die with that bastard.
I cast the skill with that mindset.
I don’t know if I’ll get caught though.
‘Either die.’
[Corpse Explosion]
‘It’s black and white.’
Kwaaang-!
* * *
When an explosion occurred in an alley, nearby merchants flocked.
“W-what’s going on?”
“Ouch, over there!”
Blackened scorch marks, shattered clothing containers, and pieces of flesh.
They were the ones who immediately reported it to the police, but they didn’t know.
They never thought there would be someone watching them from afar.
‘Whew, this bastard almost died.’
Ryu Min, who had taken refuge inside the two-story building, looked at Joo Seong-tak, who was unconscious in a corner.
‘You crazy bastard. ‘You can’t even see what’s in front of you and you’re using Corpse Explosion.’
If it weren’t for the fact that he read his thoughts in advance and blocked it, this bastard would have become a piece of meat too.
‘Well, he deserves to die a hundred and a thousand times, but… … .’
Ryu Min did not have the heart to kill Joo Seong-tak yet.
If that were the case, he would have gathered the ingredients right away, cut off his head, and left.
‘He’s a psychopath, but there’s a way to take advantage of him. Because the drop runes he has are very useful.’
Joo Seong-tak’s nickname is [Shit Idiot].
Like Ma Gyeong-rok from [Cheonma], he is a talent competing for 2nd and 3rd place in the entire district.
However, there is a problem with putting it on the same side as serial killers.
‘Of course I don’t plan on taking him until the 20th round. However, you can use it to catch the boss before then.’
The drop rune is literally a rune that increases the drop rate of an item.
In particular, it increases the probability of special items dropped by bosses by 10 times.
‘In other words, if the drop rate is 10%, it is a deceptive rune that increases it to 100%.’
This is why he extracted legendary materials from high orcs.
‘This guy’s runes can be helpful to me if I use them well.’
Haven’t you still uploaded legendary materials to sell on the Play Market?
Since he was a talented guy, it was obvious that he would upload good material in the future.
‘The problem is that he is a serial killer… … .’
In fact, it would be awkward to let him go like this because he was sure to kill innocent people if left alive.
‘But that doesn’t mean there isn’t a way.’
Ryu Min lifted up the Hwandu Daedo.
There is no need to use the scythe to create an excuse to chase.
Suddenly-
Since one arm had already been cut off, I only cut off the leg.
First aid was used with only one limb left.
The wound is healed and the cross section becomes smooth.
‘I used it on my eyes too, so my vision will probably come back when I wake up.’
However, the severed limbs were broken into pieces so that they could not be attached.
Joo Seong-tak has now lost his limbs one by one.
‘If you cripple your real body, you won’t be able to kill at will. Anyway, what you need is a body in another world that can supply items.’
Even if you make him disabled like this, the avatar in this world will be fine.
Now you can leave with peace of mind.
‘Of course, since he saw my face, he will definitely seek revenge when he wakes up… … .’
There was no problem.
Because the face Ryu Min showed was that of the dead Hwang Yong Min.
