RUST -53

This was the first fight like this.

The youngest was scared. The fact that they were filming this. It was all like a nightmare. He wanted to run away.

The fights I had with kids in middle school? I fought like crazy, with my second-year middle school syndrome. But compared to this situation now? It was nothing to compare to.

When fighting, because they can’t control their anger, they feel embarrassed, they get really angry, and without even knowing why they’re angry, they just scream and scream until their blood pressure goes up, and then they say, ‘Oh, I’m screwed.’

But the two people fighting now were different. Only how to kill the other person? The murderous intent to kill without fail. The determination to kill now. Blood spurted out, and bones broke in an instant.

The youngest was so scared of the thick murderous intent and the will to kill the other person. Even the youngest knew both of them. One was the person who had chosen him, the other was the person who had treated him kindly. One was the person who had been promoted upon moving to Hotel Charlotte, and the other was the director of Seonggol, who had been recognized by the company.

The youngest didn’t know what to do as the two fought to the death. Even while filming the video, the youngest was just scared, trembling, and not knowing what to do.

What if someone suddenly dies? What would the employees behind the company do? What would they do with the people who betrayed the company and moved to Charlotte? Just imagining it was terrifying.

The decision between the two was made in an instant.

Bam!

A heavy blow to Director Kim’s face, causing him to lose consciousness for a moment.

That’s the end of it.

Ah- The youngest sighed. He thought it was over now that the decision had been made.

But it wasn’t.

Manager Lee Ki-young climbed onto Director Kim Soo-hyun’s body. Pounding from the mount position.

I literally just started pounding away.

The youngest cried out inwardly, ‘Please! Stop it!’ ‘If this continues, someone will die!’ Inwardly. Only inwardly.

The nose fell down and the clown collapsed. Director Kim resisted the pounding by waving his arms, but soon gave out.

It’s really over now, it’s over. The youngest picked up his cell phone. Now, Manager Lee Ki-young will take Director Kim Soo-hyun prisoner, tell the company people to step down, and negotiate. Right?

Of course, this side was at a disadvantage. Considering the company employees and the equipment of the saints, it was obvious. When the two sides clashed, this side was the one who was slaughtered. When people with old revolvers, rebar wrapped in insulation tape, iron pipes, metal bats, and fire axes fight against heavily armed company employees, isn’t the result obvious?

While the youngest was lost in thought for a moment, Manager Lee grabbed Director Kim’s leg, which was hanging limply, and did something like this and that before doing a heel hook. Suddenly, his knee joint twisted.

The youngest was breathless. I won. I hit you. I’m going to die. But again?

Looking at the twisted things, it seemed like Director Kim would become a cripple. The youngest was afraid of Manager Lee.

Team Leader Yang said he would let it pass once, but what if Section Chief Lee found out? He’d get his face smashed in one punch. He did that even though he won. What if it was revealed that he sent a text message to Director Kim?

The youngest thought of a man who ate shit and cried loudly. He also thought of selling him to the countryside and overseas. His hands were shaking.

Soccer kick. Soccer kick. This section chief, who kicked Director Kim’s head like a soccer ball and got upset because his neck didn’t break. Is that person really someone I know? I was scared of the person who kicked him to kill him, but then told him to bring a knife to cut his neck because he didn’t die.

The youngest opened the tool bag, shivering. It was packed to the brim with tools. Some were rusty and stained with blood, while others were still green and alive. The youngest picked up the smallest and weakest one. It was long and sharp like a skewer. You can’t cut someone’s throat with this.

The youngest, with trembling hands, held a long, thin weapon like a skewer. Looking at Director Kim, I could see the back of Manager Lee, who had extended his hand behind him.

Over there, I saw Director Kim’s information officer. He looked like he was about to shed tears of blood. He wanted to come and rescue Director Kim right away, but he seemed to be watching something or something was blocking him, so he couldn’t come.

Ah, our eyes met.

Looking at yourself, the shape of your mouth pouting.

Stab!

Who?

The youngest was dumbfounded.

I already felt like I had lost all my energy. There was a ringing in my ears.

Stab!

Or else we all die.

The youngest saw the staff members holding machine guns. His mind was hazy.

At that moment, I thought of my parents who became disabled in a car accident. Ah- my whole family is in Seoul…

Clank- It seemed as if I could hear the company employees pulling a bolt.

Stab!

I mean stab me!

All dead···.

Phew-

uh?

The youngest blinked.

=====

=====

A sharp blade that pierces the stomach.

Manager Lee Ki-young instinctively hit a backspin blow. The youngest rolled over with a thud.

“What the fuck.”

“older brother!”

Team Leader Ahn screamed when he saw the section chief with a skewer stuck in his stomach. And then someone pulled the trigger. A single gunshot instantly set off the fuse.

Tata dadadang!

A silenced machine gun spat out bullets. Those who were hit by the bullets vomited blood.

It was a chaotic scene that unfolded in an instant, but the response was faster than expected. The guys holding shields blocked the machine guns.

The manager grabbed his stomach and waved his hand.

“Don’t come here! Damn it- Jong-gu. Do that! Don’t come here and do that!”

Team Leader Ahn, who was running towards Manager Lee Ki-young, clenched his fists and turned around.

“Kids, show me what you prepared-. Show me everything!”

Ting- thung- teng- pushishishishishik

Smoke grenades poured out thick smoke. Dozens of smoke grenades exploded at once, creating a thick smoke screen that made it impossible to see even an inch ahead. Just die, everyone. The machine gun that had been spitting bullets closed its mouth.

Team Leader Ahn and his direct subordinates brought in a pair of beer bottles neatly arranged in a row. The cloth covering the beer bottles was pulled out long.

“I’ll show you guys hell.”

Let me tell you how the US military, which was well-equipped in the Middle East, got screwed because they trusted their equipment. Team Leader Ahn lit a Molotov cocktail filled with homemade napalm.

“Burn it all!”

Dozens of firebombs flew across the fog.

======

The youngest, who had lost consciousness for a moment, shook his head. There was something in his mouth. Thud- He spat, and a few teeth popped out along with blood. It hurt so much. Is this what it feels like to be hit in the face with a hammer?

Thick smoke swept in like waves, carried by the wind. On the other side, the ceaseless gunfire and explosions colored the white smoke. The youngest blinked. The blurry focus returned.

Director Kim.

The youngest went to find Director Kim. He didn’t mean to do that. It just wasn’t. The youngest stood up, putting strength into his trembling legs.

Director Kim’s body was sinking into the rising smoke. Section Chief Lee was nowhere to be seen. It was scary. It was scary, but I couldn’t let Director Kim die. There was no going back anyway. I had to save Director Kim and get out.

Ugh- Ugh-

Director Kim’s condition was dire. Judging from the blood flowing out of his mouth, he seemed to be breathing, but his appearance made you wonder if he would survive. His left arm was torn and tattered, and his right leg was twisted in a way that the knee and ankle could not be bent. And his face…

Boo-

Woof-

The youngest, who had been vomiting without realizing it, grabbed Director Kim’s bulletproof vest and pulled it. He thought that someone, either an information officer or a company employee, would come to get Director Kim, but no one came.

Ugh – it was heavy. It didn’t pull well.

Still. He had to live. Director Kim had to live. He had to live. His connection with Director Kim wouldn’t be broken.

The youngest desperately dragged Director Kim into the smoke.

======

======

Director Kim Soo-hyun’s subordinates were furious.

If it was not injured, Lee Ki -young would have been able to break down as if he was broken.

“Are you just going to watch?”

“Why are you doing that?

The information officer, who barely managed to place the safety pin on the grenade and went to the reserve unit, was going crazy. Wouldn’t he want to rescue Director Kim?

But there was ‘that’. Fucking ‘that’ was there. Whatever the reason, whatever the process, Director Kim Soo-hyun and Manager Lee Ki-young did a 1:1 in front of that.

But Director Kim is in danger, so he rushes in and shoots Lee Ki-young to save Director Kim? What the hell, what if ‘that’ moves?

“Shut up! Do you think I’m doing this because I want to stay still?”

It was Lee Ki-young who was trying to kill Director Kim, but the youngest was able to save Director Kim’s life by stabbing Lee Ki-young in the back. It was fortunate. The youngest did as he wanted. Please, the youngest had to bring Director Kim here.

“Information Team Leader. The guys are resisting.”

“Then don’t go in and stay where you are!”

As soon as the information officer finished speaking, the other side of the thick smoke began to turn red. A loud noise followed. A hot heat.

Boom! Boom! Pfft!

Hurrrrrurr

Kkaaaak

Aaaah

Fire!

The formation suddenly collapsed.

The information officer’s eyes widened. Smoke bombs, priest napalm? Molotov cocktails? These guys were preparing in advance.

“Get back to the formation! Drop a grenade and get back to the formation!”

They block the view with smoke and advance using Molotov cocktails. There was no way to stop this simple method right away. They kept shooting indiscriminately to block the advance, and when they threw Molotov cocktails in the direction of the gunfire, they had no choice but to push back.

I overlooked the fact that Lee Ki-young was a bastard who rolled around on the floor. He was a skilled dogfighter. Even so, I thought it would be okay to push him away.

From the beginning, I thought that they would be able to easily subdue a bunch of guys since they were so overwhelmingly superior in firepower. I thought that the possibility of them having a hard time against guys who weren’t even properly equipped with an old .38 caliber revolver was close to zero.

But when I actually opened the lid, it wasn’t true. If there had been a landmine, it could have been stopped.

“Team Leader. We need to rescue Director Kim right now.”

“That’s right. If they advance like that using Molotov cocktails, it will be difficult to respond with the equipment we have now.”

I know. I know that too. But where Director Kim is, there it is. The information officer looked as if he was going crazy and was in agony.

“Over here! I brought Director Kim here! Is anyone here?”

The youngest’s voice was heard from beyond the smoke. The information team leader ran in the direction of the voice. Several of the subordinates around him ran with him. The youngest was dragging Director Kim, who was covered in blood.

“Fuck, you did a great job. You’re fucking awesome! You’re awesome! Medical team. Get the medical team here, quick!”

The medical team that had lowered the stretcher from the ambulance rushed to Director Kim. And when the subordinates saw Director Kim’s appearance, they were shocked.

While the information team leader was checking on Director Kim’s condition and focusing on defense, several of Director Kim’s direct subordinates jumped into the smoke, saying they would catch and kill Lee Ki-young.

Maru’s impression was simple. It wasn’t like cutting with a single sword, but rather hitting with fists, twisting joints, and pounding. It was a damp feeling, to put it in words. It wasn’t the kind of atmosphere that you can have watching a mixed martial arts show.

Suddenly, Maru was ‘judged’. I wanted to see the result, so I stayed, but then suddenly, thud- the ending. Ah- the old man who got stabbed in the back didn’t die. So it’s not the ending.

After that, World and Charlotte became fiercely rivals.

‘Hmm- It’ll be over soon, right? It looks like Director Kim was dragged away from over there.’

Then, should I wake up soon?

As Maru was about to clean up, Manager Lee Ki-young approached her with a skewer stuck in his stomach.

“The manager of Hotel Charlotte has a message for you.”

“······.”

Despite Maru’s silence, Manager Lee Ki-young continued to speak.

“If you become our exclusive mercenary, Hotel Charlotte is willing to do anything for you.”

Maru burst out laughing. He was talking nonsense about not being paid to do dirty work… As Maru’s mood changed, Manager Lee quickly added to the story.

“Even if you are not an exclusive mercenary, if you just promise not to be hostile towards us, Hotel Charlotte will treat you with the best courtesy it can offer.”

Yeah? So you’re saying that you can do something without swinging your sword at them? That’s a bit harsh. Well, since they don’t know their own situation, they probably want to avoid you joining another faction as a mercenary and swinging your sword at Hotel Charlotte.

The moment Maru said, “That’s okay,” a thick murderous aura was felt from a distance. The direction of the murderous aura was directed towards Maru.

“Get down!”

Manager Lee Ki-young, who was about to instinctively lie down at Maru’s shout, hesitated. It was because of the skewer stuck in his stomach.

Thud, thud, thud!

A bullet passes through the section chief’s right back and forearm, accompanied by the sound of a machine gun.

Shhh- I’m talking, what kind of kids are you?

Maru pulled out his sword.
