Chapter 161

Ming Hu shook his fist at the cadre who looked at him in disbelief.
“Axed…”
A cadre who was about to unleash an axe rampage was killed by Myung-Hoo’s fist before he could shout out the skill name.
“What the…what the…what the…what the…what!”
With two dead in quick succession, the third cadre quickly backed away, shouting, “I’m going to kill you! Ming Hu stared at the retreating cadre, then quickly caught up to him and threw a punch.
“If you get hit, you die!
Seeing Ming Hu’s fist coming, the cadre quickly threw himself to the side, thinking that he would die if he was hit, and rolled over to where Sun Tzu was.
“…”
Not expecting him to dodge that far, Ming Hu turned his gaze away from the cadre, who was still rolling in the punching position, and looked at Sun Tzu.
Cringe
When Ming Hu looked at him, Sun Tzu flinched and swallowed hard. Ming Hu straightened his posture and said to Sun Tzu, “I’m sorry.
“I see you have A and C, but I think you also have B. What’s B? Is there a D?”
“…”
Sun Tzu said nothing to Ming Hu’s words.
Jumbled
Ming Hu began to walk toward Sun Tzu and his officers again.
“…How do I do that?”
As Ming Hu approached, the rest of the officers looked at Sun Tzu and said, “What are you doing here? But Shundong was unable to say anything in response to their questions.
“This is ridiculous…
Shundong couldn’t believe what was happening.
‘How did they grow… in one room… how did they do it… in one room…’
I leveled up my character to a level that was incomparable to when I was killed by Ming Hu at the exchange. I also equipped my items with better ones than I had back then. Despite all my efforts, nothing has changed: it’s the same old, same old.
‘It’s 10%. How is 10%…’
The biggest problem was that when a user attacked you, it would deal 10% damage instead of 100%.
Puck!
“Ugh.”
Arriving at the place where Sun Tzu and his cadres were, Ming Hu attacked the first cadre in front of him, and with a single punch, the cadre was picked off and fell down. As another cadre fell, Sun Tzu recovered his senses, stumbled backward, and shouted, “I’m going to kill you.
“You, you asshole!”
Puck! Puck! Puck!
Ming Hu listened to Sun Tzu’s words, and one by one, he killed the officers and approached Sun Tzu. Soon, the last officer was dead and it was Shun-tung’s turn. When all the officers were dead, Sun Tzu looked at Ming Hu with a puzzled expression.
Profit
Just then, he heard the door open. Ming Hu turned his head reflexively. The door opened and Billy and Bobobo stepped out.
“Hello, it’s been a while.”
Ming Hu waved at Billy as he came out of the door.
“…”
Billy didn’t say anything in response to Ming Hu’s greeting. He just stared at Ming Hu, Sun Tzu, and the fallen officers with a look that said he didn’t understand what the hell was going on. After a moment of trying to figure things out, Billy looked at Soondong with a furrowed brow.
“What happened?”
“Th-that.”
Soondong stuttered, not sure how to respond to Billy’s question. Billy turned his attention to Sun Tzu’s response and looked at Ming Hu.
“Why are we here?”
“Huh?”
Ming Hu couldn’t help but feel a little embarrassed by Billy’s question. He hadn’t expected to be asked that question.
“Why did he enter someone else’s guildhouse and do this?”
At Billy’s next words, Ming Hu smiled wryly.
“You said you had a lot of preparations for me.”
“…Who said that?”
When Ming Hu answered, Billy asked again. Ming Hu turned his head to look at Sun Tzu, and Billy’s gaze fell on him.
“Are you sure?”
Billy asked.
“Huh? That’s-what I was saying, but this asshole was already banging before he heard me!”
At Sun Tzu’s words, Billy turned his head again and looked at Ming Hu with a look that demanded an explanation of what had happened. Ming Hu smiled at the look in Billy’s eyes and said.
“I’ve heard it all, and you’ve confirmed it for me.”
Jumbled
Ming Hu walked toward Sun Tzu.
“Oh…don’t you come back, asshole!”
As Ming Hu approached, Sun Dong quickly ran to where Billy was. Ming Hu walked leisurely after Sun Tzu to where Billy was. As Ming Hu approached, Billy held up his axe and said, “I’m coming.
“I didn’t think it was the right time, but now that it’s happened, I guess I have no choice.”
With that, Billy pointed the axe at Ming Hu. Ming Hu smirked at the confident look on Billy’s face as he pointed the axe at him.
“…”
Billy’s expression hardened slightly as he thought Ming Hu had laughed at him.
“I’ll make you regret it.”
Billy spoke with a stern expression and began to walk toward Ming Hu. The distance between them quickly closed as they walked face-to-face, and soon Billy swung his axe.
Jumbled
Ming Hu didn’t duck as the axe flew; he just took a step closer and extended his fist toward Billy.
“What the…!”
Thinking that Myung-Hoo would dodge the axe, Billy can’t help but be puzzled by Myung-Hoo’s behavior, as he ignores the axe and goes straight for the fist.
Puck! Puck!
“Holy shit!”
Billy quickly backed away from Myung-Hoo’s fist.
“You’ve got a lot of life, huh?”
Unlike the others, Billy didn’t die in one shot. Ming Hu looked at Billy, a little surprised.
“…”
At Ming Hu’s words, Billy said nothing. He just stared at his life force in amazement. Then, turning his gaze from his life force to Ming Hu, Billy looked at Ming Hu with a look of disbelief.
“Y-you’re not…”
“…?”
Ming Hu shook his head at Billy’s surprised reaction and walked over to him. Billy didn’t move as Ming Hu approached. He just stared at Ming Hu with a mixture of surprise and disbelief, just as he had when he died in front of the exchange.
“Why is this happening?
Ming Hu shook his head and threw a punch at Billy.
“Sooner or later… you’re going to regret what happened today.”
Billy looked at Ming Hu with a mixture of surprise and disbelief, but then he smiled wickedly and said, “You’re right.
Puck! Thwack
After leaving some unintelligible words, Billy proved to be too much for the two rooms to hold, and died. As Billy collapsed in a heap, Sun Tzu and Bobo Bo swallowed hard and looked at Ming Hu.
“Let’s get this over with.”
As Myung-Hoo pondered the meaning of Billy’s unintelligible last words, he heard a swallow and looked at Sun Tzu and Bobo Bo. Ming Hu first punched Bobobo.
Puck!
“Billion.”
After killing Bo Bo Bo Bo, Ming Hu looked at Shun Dong. Sun Tzu was looking at him with a slightly poisonous gaze. Ming Hu approached him. Knowing that he would be miserable if he tried to resist, he did nothing as Ming Hu approached him; he merely stared at him with a poisonous glare.
“I’ll be back tomorrow.”
Ming Hu spoke to Sun Tzu and punched him. Sun Tzu’s venomous eyes widened when he heard Minghu’s words.
Puck!
Sun Tzu collapsed, wide-eyed. Ming Hu turned away from Sun Tzu and muttered to himself as he descended to the first floor.
“When are you coming back?”
Contrary to what he had just told Sun Tzu, Ming Hu had no intention of coming back here tomorrow, but he also had no intention of letting this be the end of it. If he did, they would be even more prepared and come at him with even greater intensity. To prevent such thoughts from crossing his mind, Ming Hu would destroy the Twin Axe Guild once and for all.
“But… you’re going to regret it sooner or later. What do you mean?”
Reaching the ground floor, Ming Hu shook his head as he recalled Billy’s last words and crooked smile. There was definitely something there, but what it was, he couldn’t quite put his finger on right now.
“Whatever it is, I’m going to make sure I step on it.”
Not knowing what it was, Ming Hu decided to solve the Twin Axe Guild problem before something happened, so he left the guild house and started walking to the forge.
* * * * *
Outside the Pacific Guild’s guildhouse, Margaret, the current Guildmaster of the Pacific Guild, and Planck, a guild member and the man Margaret calls Uncle, were talking.
“So… Are you saying that he’s the one who switched marks?”
Margaret said in disbelief, watching the user’s slowly shrinking back.
“Yes, ma’am.”
“Ha.”
Planck nodded and said, “Yes. At Planck’s answer, Margaret sighed deeply and opened her mouth again to speak.
“Are you sure you… you did it?”
“Yes, I’m sure. Is there any problem…?”
Margaret shook her head with a bitter smile at Planck’s words.
“No big deal, I must have misunderstood.”
“…?”
Unsure of what had happened, Planck looked at Margaret with a puzzled expression.
“Bobby.”
“Yes, ma’am.”
“I’m sorry, can you find out which guild that user is in?”
“I see.”
At Margaret’s words, Planck smiled and began to follow the user.
“Which guild is…?”
Margaret muttered to herself as she watched Planck follow behind the user. There was no obvious guild mark above the user’s head, meaning he was not a member of the guild, yet he had traded two million for a task that would have been difficult even for a high ranked player. Margaret was very curious about the user’s identity.
Jumbled
Margaret returned to the Guild House and walked back to her room, whispering to Planck, who had followed her to find out which guild the user was looking for.
-Planck: I think I found it.
-To Planck: Where are you?
-Planck: That’s… The Twin Axes Guild.
Margaret’s fine army frowned at Planck’s whispered mention of the Twin Axe Guild. It was a weak, low-level guild that wasn’t worth fighting, and she couldn’t understand why a user who had just exchanged two million Merit Points for a single room would want to visit them.
-Plank to Planck: The Twin Axe Guild, are you sure?
-Plank: Yeah, huh? That’s…that’s a little weird.
Margaret was puzzled by Planck’s whispered comment that something was wrong. What was strange?
-Plank: A member of the Twin Axes guild came out… and I killed him.
-Plank to Planck: What? You did PK?
-Planck: Yes. I walked into the guild house, which I don’t think I came for a good purpose, huh?
Margaret could not help but be puzzled by Planck’s whispered words.
