A Spy’s Demonic Life - Chapter 19



Only Krnovel

19.

– Near Wolha Village.

Tata-tata-tak.

A middle-aged man wearing a black robe runs along the forest path with considerable speed.

His name is Yongtae.

He was a warrior from the Horongdang clan in the past, and is currently the leader of the Black Dragon faction.

There is one reason why he runs like this, sweating profusely.

Jang Seo. It was at his request.

‘You guys. If you’re not busy, I should call someone.’

‘Who are you talking about…?’

‘Horongdang.’

Horyondang (Tiger and Dragon Hall).

One of the five highest-level organizations in charge of the administration of Cheonsan, the O-Ryong-Dang, and an armed force in charge of security and protection.

The role of the Ministry of Justice among the six ministries, compared to the coffin.

The so-called criminals were the bastards.

It was a fight that started with an attack from the other party. In any case, this kind of killing within the school was clearly a crime and was subject to investigation.

So the moment Horongdang arrives at Wolha Village, all fighting will end.

Especially since this time they had threatened even the villagers, it would not be easy to just let it go as a matter of the Maga family.

So, go as soon as possible… … .

“Ugh, I’m out of breath. Wait a minute. I just lost a lifespan.”

Yongtae feels dizzy and holds onto a tree to catch his breath. How long has it been since he last ran this fast? His head feels dizzy.

“Tongue, bro!”

After a while, Megiddo appeared with a face soaking wet and a look of death on his face.

“Gasp, gasp.”

“Hey, breathe. Spit it out. Spit it out, kid. Just don’t eat it.”

“Whoa… … .”

“Yeah. Oh. Good job.”

When Yongtae patted Meggi on the back, Meggi sank to the ground. His face looked like it had lost its soul.

“Oh, right.”

Yongtae looked around, his mouth watering. The terrain was so rugged that he couldn’t see the sky very well, and the road to Horyondang was long.

If we keep running like this, it looks like we’ll arrive late at night.

“Brother… … If we continue like this, we might die first.”

“Didn’t you see the blood dripping from Wang’s hands earlier? Those bastards from the slaughterhouse… … . This time, they came determinedly. We don’t know what they’ll do. We’re called Inma. Huh? We’re the leaders of Wolha Village. We have to protect them.”

“But you kept hiding… … .”

“Hey, you little shit! I was just getting my thoughts together. Huh? Those bastards from the slaughterhouse, just like that! Huh? Inma.”

What was that? It was at that time that Yongtae was talking nonsense to himself.

“What’s wrong with a slaughterhouse?”

“What can I do? Those bastards are hurting the church members. Anyway, I’ll meet the head of the family and have a talk… … Yeah, but who am I talking to?”

Yongtae, who realized the situation belatedly, blinked his eyes widely.

Sssss.

Then, I feel an indescribable, heavy energy flowing everywhere. I swallow my saliva and glance to the side, and I see the eyes of a catfish with its brows far apart, trembling like aspen trees.

A plague. Something must be going on. Then, Yongtae slowly turned his head while becoming tense.

“Eww!”

With a scream, he fell to the floor as if his legs had given out.

There stood a man of massive build, stroking his handsome black beard, with five or six subordinates at his side.

A gold belt with a tiger pattern. A black and yellow martial arts uniform with a tiger pattern. Lastly, the word “虎” written on the shoulder.

There is only one person in the world who loves tigers so much.

“Oh, Horongdang has appeared… … .”

Why didn’t you tell me earlier, you little catfish? Cold sweat formed on Yongtae’s forehead.

In fact, the real problem was not that they were Horongdang.

The question is who that black-bearded man is.

Yongtae swallowed his saliva and shouted at the top of his lungs, prostrating himself deeply.

“Shin Yong-tae! Meet the lord!”

A party leader who is neither the major nor minor shareholder.

Yes, that’s right.

The head of Horongdang and a big shot among second-class nobles.

He was a clever tiger named Ji Dae-ho.

“All, Lord… … . Heeeeeeek!”

Only then did Megi realize the situation and follow suit, prostrating himself.

I met the world’s greatest dragon master in the middle of a nameless mountain path that was neither a village nor a famous place.

“Take a rest.”

“Take a break!”

At Jidaeho’s command, Yongtae suddenly got up and stood upright. Without noticing, he patted Meggi, who was still lying down. He kicked him with his side foot and made him stand up as well.

Then Ji Dae-ho glanced at the teeth with sharp eyes and opened his mouth.

“Yongtae.”

“yes!”

“I heard that you left Horongdang and became a troublemaker. But a guy who has been hiding his whole life and is still not satisfied with it, wants to come out and negotiate?”

“Oh, that, that’s not it. Yes. So what’s going on here? Negotiation. Yes. That means both parties discuss and decide what’s right and wrong… … .”

“Click click, did you say right or wrong?”

The leader of Horongdang, Ji Dae-ho, smiles heartily. What the heck? Did it work? At that moment, Yong-tae and Meggi try to laugh along.

Khwaaaaaang! A roaring hallucination was heard, and Ji Dae-ho suddenly thrust his face forward and said.

“Good. From now on, if you tell even one lie, you will be held strictly accountable. Did you say that the slaughterhouse harmed the believers?”

“Heeeeeeek! Yes, yes! That’s right!”

“Where is it? The place where the slaughterhouse appears and causes harm.”

Things have gotten really escalated.

Yongtae cried with a blank expression on his face.

*

Ji Dae-ho and Yong-tae, the heads of Horongdang, arrived at Wolha Village.

I was worried that the situation might be over, but fortunately, there was still plenty of evidence left at Hongye Bridge.

Bloodstains on Hongye Bridge. And corpses floating on the lake.

“What the heck is this… … Search the village thoroughly!”

When Ji Dae-ho saw this, he immediately gave an order.

“yes!”

Here, the warriors of Horongdang seep into the village like rays of light.

Thud, thud.

Ji Dae-ho walked slowly inside, looking around carefully.

A corpse hanging over the railing of the Moonlight Lake. A corpse floating in the water.

The signs were also varied.

Some were stabbed to death, others were beaten to death.

One thing is certain for Ji Dae-ho, who has a long history of investigation.

‘Master. It was all done by one master.’

I didn’t quite understand that.

It was easy to guess why a slaughterhouse known all the way across China had come to such a remote place.

Seven Princes.

Haven’t you personally investigated incidents involving him in the past?

But this is… … .

As Ji Dae-ho reached the end of Hongye Bridge, his men who had run ahead returned, bowed their heads, and reported.

“My lord, the total number of bodies discovered so far is twenty-nine. There are no others, and they are all from the slaughterhouse.”

Huh. Not one, two, but twenty-nine? This isn’t an ordinary case, is it?

Ji Dae-ho frowned and muttered softly.

“Yongtae.”

“yes?”

“You lied to me.”

“Me? No, I’m not. Isn’t this the slaughterhouse?”

“It’s not the slaughterhouse that harms people… … . Who harmed the slaughterhouse?”

“No, that’s… … !”

Yongtae’s eyes widened. This was something he had never even thought of.

‘Wait a minute. So that assistant killed them all?’

There’s no way the villagers would do that. For a moment, goosebumps ran through Yongtae and Meggi’s bodies. I knew he was from the counterintelligence unit, but I didn’t know he was this skilled.

“My lord. It seems that the last trace leads to Chilsogung.”

“hmm…….”

A thick slurp escaped from Ji Dae-ho’s mouth. Chilsogung. No matter how empty the name may be, for him, a man of principle, it was a sanctuary where he could not conduct an investigation without evidence.

However, that does not mean that Chil-gong-ja can just quietly back down from this potentially dangerous situation.

“Everyone, please wait here. I must greet the Seven Princes.”

Crunch.

Horongdangju Ji Daeho took off the sword from his waist, handed it to his subordinate, and began to enter the bamboo forest alone.

What on earth is going on here?

I need to know.

*

– Wolha Village Chilsogung.

“Please get up. If someone sees us now, they’ll easily misunderstand us.”

“I got a rat.”

“Is it an app?”

Zhang Yishu nodded to Mao, who was still kneeling, and told him to stand up.

Mao then said, “Absolutely not,” and licked his tongue with his index finger and spit on his nose and forehead.

When on earth did that become the enemy’s method? Ha. Jang Yi-seo let out a hollow laugh at this.

Just looking at each other’s eyes, where their guard is relaxed, it definitely feels like they’ve become a little closer.

Zhang Yishu sighed and grabbed Mao’s shoulder to help him up. But.

“Stop. If you move one more finger, your head will be blown off.”

Sssss.

I could feel the ferocious murderous intent on my skin, as if a mountain army had appeared from behind.

At this, Jang Yi-seo slowly turned around.

And then, as his pupils grew bigger, he recognized his opponent at a glance.

‘The clever tiger, Ji Dae-ho!’

He doesn’t know Jang Yi-seo, but Jang Yi-seo knows him too well.

A key target of observation, one of the most powerful figures in the Horong clan and a top 30 ranking member of the Demonic Cult.

“Your Majesty, please step down.”

“I want to do that too, but my legs… … .”

Ji Dae-ho looked at Mao’s folded knees and said in shock.

“No way. Did you break it?”

“No, why are you talking like that?”

“I will go to the main office and hear more details.”

“What… … hmph!”

Khwaaaaaang! Ji Dae-ho rushed forward with what seemed to be the sound of a tiger’s roar.

‘fast.’

Jang Seo, who faced this head-on, felt tense for a moment and turned his body and head to the side.

Boohoo!

Then, a tremendous wind pressure brushed past my ears. Even though it was just a fleeting moment, I felt an enormous force. This was not something that could be dealt with lightly.

“It’s pretty good!”

Ji Dae-ho also seemed to have the same mindset as him, and he continued to attack without mercy. Papapapap! Jang Yi-seo barely managed to block it and was pushed back endlessly.

‘Ugh. I blocked it but it was still shocking… ‘

Tremendous strength. I can see why they call him a tiger. He’d rather be hit by a tiger.

A bone-crushing pain surged through him, and an alarm bell rang in Jang-seo’s mind.

‘If this continues, we’ll get eaten.’

“Hey, try to stop this too!”

Kwaaaaang! Ji Dae-ho’s fist swings back sharply. Realizing that Jang Yi-seo’s limbs are loose, he decides to finish him off this time.

At that moment, a light also appeared in Jang Yiseo’s eyes.

‘Gap!’

And my body reacted reflexively.

Dismissal! The energy that had been flowing leisurely through the meridians in my danjeon suddenly turned into a bolt of lightning and enveloped my entire body in an instant.

『Thunderbolt Method』

And before Ji Dae-ho’s fist could fly, Jang Yi-seo’s palm struck his chest first.

puck!

“Huh?!”

Ji Dae-ho was pushed back five or six steps with a groan.

“ah.”

Jang-i spat in embarrassment, and Ji-dae-ho lowered his head and blankly looked at his chest.

With eyes that said they could not believe it.

“you.”

And then he raised his head again.

But from both eyes a light of life radiated that was incomparable to anything seen before.

That pisses me off.

That too, a lot.

“There is a very serious misunderstanding right now… … .”

“I’ll treat you properly!”

Khaaaaang!

The angry tiger started to run wild.
