Possessed an Academy Security Guard

197 – 197. Three Waves (4)

A moment of silence fell between Suho Ahn and Seongchan Heo. Heo Seong-chan, who was watching Ahn Su-ho’s reaction with an awkward face, nervously moved his lips, then sighed and replied.

“…… Okay. That’s right.”

Heo Seong-chan, who was hit hard, gave up on evading any more. His personality is not the kind that can deceive others well, because he was caught anyway.

“The person who asked me to do the job this time was Sung Yu-jin. Maybe it’s because he’s an entrepreneur, so he paid a lot of money and even gave me a powerful body enhancer. Even if it’s not that, I was able to meet you and fight thanks to this request, so I’m grateful to that person.”

The body enhancer Seong Eugene gave him was an illegal drug. He was so unwell that there was a saying that it temporarily boosted his abilities, but cut his lifespan in return. Of course, Heo Seong-chan did not care about such trifles.

“…… I don’t understand.”

However, a question lingered in Ahn Su-ho’s mind.

“No matter how much money you give, Seong Yu-jin is the client who once cheated on you. But do you think of working for such a client again?”

Heo Seong-chan failed to kidnap Kang Ha-neul requested by Seong Yu-jin’s subordinate. And in order to make up for this, he snooped around the research center, and ended up getting out of sight of Sung Eugene and almost killed by other contractors he hired. Ahn Su-ho heard about it from Ji Ye-won and knew about it.

That’s why it was strange.

Heo Seong-chan’s personality and behavior are simple and clear. He sees those who do good to him as allies and those who harm him as enemies. It feels out of place to think that such a Heo Seong-chan is working again under Seong Yu-jin, who once gave up on himself.

Of course, there was no guarantee that Heo Seong-chan’s personality would be the same as the original, and it was not that Ahn Soo-ho had 100% penetrated his psychology. So Ahn Su-ho guessed that Heo Seong-chan was working for Seong Yu-jin for another reason he didn’t know about.

However.

“……………… What? What are you talking about? Is it a golden hour?”

At Suho Ahn’s words, Seongchan Heo frowned, saying that this was the first time he had heard such a word.

“This is the first time I heard it… …. Didn’t you know The researcher who first asked you to kidnap Kang Ha-neul and tried to silence you and Yoo Jin-soo after failing. That person is Seong Yu-jin’s subordinate. I did what Seong Yu-jin told me to do.”

As Ahn Su-ho continued to speak, Heo Seong-chan’s expression changed in a variety of ways. From amazement to anger, then soon the expression disappeared from his face and it became expressionless.

However, it is always a contradiction. Although his expression was calm due to extreme anger, those two eyes were burning. Heo Seong-chan felt that his pride was torn to shreds at the fact that he was almost used again by the person who vomited him.

Just then.

-…… aaa!!

Leaving the trembling Heo Seong-chan behind for a moment, Ahn Su-ho raised his head at the exhaust sound approaching from afar. Jeong Ji-min, who was next to him, frowned.

“Sound of a motorcycle? How is a motorcycle on the highway……. Besides, the road going this way should have been controlled right after the battle started…….”

There are a total of three bikes approaching from the other side of the straight road.

Thanks to the speed that seemed to easily exceed 100 km/h, the bike quickly closed the distance. Eventually, when the bike stopped on the outskirts of the battlefield, An Su-ho recognized their faces and was astonished.

“Aegis…… !”

The Westerner who stood at the forefront was Aegis, the 6th ranked Assassination Team of the Rising League, whom Ahn Su-ho was familiar with. On the left side was Cube, the ninth rank in the assassination team, a man with a stern impression that he also encountered during the Neverland incident.

On the other hand, the other one couldn’t even recognize Ahn Su-ho.

A woman with bright yellow blonde hair wearing a black mask.

If you touch her, her cloudy eyes roll here and there between her eyes, which are sharply torn as if they were cut, and she surveys the battlefield. Then, when that gaze met An Su-ho, the woman was pointing her finger at An Su-ho and saying something to the two of them.

Her identity is codenamed ‘Rusty Nail’.

She was the 7th most powerful person in the Assassination Team of the Dawn Team, right next to Aegis, but Ahn Su-ho did not know about her.

But since she came with Aegis or Cube, we can only guess that she is also her assassination team.

“Hmm.”

Receiving Ahn Su-ho’s gaze, Rusty Nail looked over at her group fighting on the battlefield. Soon, a deep wrinkle formed between her brows.

“What, why are they all wearing our symbols on their arms? Are they guys from our gang?”

“Ha ha ha! No way! It looks like the Amon guys are impersonating us and running amok!”

“The liver came out overboard as a group.”

Rusty Nail hesitated as he stretched out her right arm. She asks sarcastically at Aegis, who was standing next to her.

“What should I do, Aegis? It’s really nerve-wracking to have to obey your orders, but rank is rank. For now, I will respect your wishes.”

“…… I don’t care about the guys fighting in front of me. Right now, securing the target is our top priority.”

“Then you want to leave those impersonators alone?”

“But. Do whatever you want, whether or not to kill the things that get in your way in the process.”

“Really?”

As if satisfied with that, Rusty Nail stretched out her right hand, which she had briefly lowered. However, it was Cube, not her, who acted first.

“Ha ha ha! It should come out like that! Let’s go wild once again today!”

-Kiiiiing!!

Huge energy bullets in the shape of cubes floated above his hands. Soon, the energy body split into small cubes, and then shot up into the sky like a howitzer and fell evenly across the entire battlefield.

-Quaang! Bang! Kwaaang!! Buff!!

It looks like it’s literally bombing. There were no exceptions to the police and Yeo-il who were subjected to the indiscriminate attack. Seeing the flames rising from all sides, Cube shouted along with the light.

“Ha ha ha ha! I don’t know who you guys are! Don’t think of impersonating us and going back alive!”

Meanwhile, Suho Ahn chewed his lips carefully at the voice of the cube coming from the other side of the explosion. He was watching the situation while hiding in the shade of a convoy truck with Jung Ji-min. However, the whole place was covered with explosions and black smoke, and even that was not possible.

“Did you see Suho too?! Wasn’t that the Dawning member who just fought in Neverland?!”

“Yes! These are the Dawn Assassination Team!”

“Assassination Team?? An assassination team running amok like this?!”

“If all the eyewitnesses are dead, then that’s an assassination!”

A look of nervousness was evident on Ahn Su-ho’s face even as he made a pointless joke.

‘If there is an assassination team including that blond woman, there are only three assassination teams. The goal is to be the first hiding place. Apparently, the Dawning Team put their lives on the line for this.’

Ahn Soo-ho quickly assessed whether he would be able to win against the three assassination teams.

Sylvie, who ran out of control in Neverland, continued a one-sided battle against Cube and Aegis. Unlike indiscriminate runaways, if Ahn Su-ho manages his actual expenses, winning them would not be a dream either.

However, unlike that time, the actual cost of Ahn Su-ho’s right arm was only 50%, and even then, the full power deployment state could not exceed 15 minutes due to Talisman’s overload. Considering the history of the unknown woman who came with the Aegis, Ahn Su-ho predicted that the current situation would be quite unfavorable to him.

‘It’s hard to compete 3-on-1 head-to-head. The only way to win with certainty is to induce a melee, and when they can’t focus on me, I have to abruptly subdue one or two people.’

Fortunately, the situation on the battlefield was extremely chaotic due to explosions and smoke, and even without that, Ahn Soo-ho was able to create an environment favorable to surprise attacks and deviations with his psychic powers. Having decided on a course, he exposed himself out of cover.

That moment.

-Tada da da da dot!

At the sound of footsteps approaching, Ahn Soo-ho swung the primordial silver. A long bundle of whips struck Rustynail in the side.

“Keep off… ! What is it, is it much faster than I heard in the story?”

Rusty Nail, who was rushing in, groaned as he grabbed her by the side. Ahn Su-ho took the opportunity to pull out a bundle of tentacles and stabbed her. Rusty Nail desperately flirted with her body to dodge the stabs, but in the end, one tentacle she couldn’t avoid slammed into her shoulder.

“Ah!!”

Ahn Suho clenched his fists at the screams that erupted inside the mask. He was the only one of the three members of the assassination team to be unidentified, so he was cautious inside, because he thought that he could win with the current battle.

However.

– Kwaaak.

“Caught.”

Rusty Nails grabbed her tentacles through her own shoulder. She smiled at him, her sharp, slender eyes tearing even longer.

-Kyaaa!!!!

Then, the next moment, Ahn Soo-ho’s mind was filled with Sylvie’s screams. I reflexively covered my ears, but Sylvie’s scream was not a physical sound, but a thought. The scream that shook his head did not diminish in the slightest.

“Sylvie! What’s wrong with you all of a sudden?!”

-It hurts, it hurts!! It hurts so much, ah ah ah ah ah!!!!

“Sylvie!!!”

Ahn Su-ho’s eyes turned to Rustine at Sylvie’s abnormal reaction. I don’t know if it’s her psychic ability or artifact, but I think her Sylvie is suffering because of her.

And the next moment, Ahn Suho couldn’t help but doubt his own eyes.

-Buseok. Perseok.

Sylvie’s tentacle penetrated Rustynail’s shoulder. Dark red rust spread around the part of her held by the tentacles. As Ahn Soo-ho hurriedly withdrew the tentacle, the rusty part fell off like rotten flesh. Sylvie’s scream fills his mind once more.

“Is it because it is not an ordinary metal? It takes quite a while for the rust to spread. If it was just metal, it would have turned it into a lump of rust in an instant.”

“…… Is that your superpower? Or the Artifact’s ability?”

“It’s really funny. Why am I telling you that?”

While saying that, Rusty Nail slowly closed the distance. With each step she took, red rust began to slowly spread around the area where her feet touched. Sylvie trembled with fear at the sight of the road rusting even though it was asphalt, not metal.

To metals, rust is poison. The same is true of Sylvie, which could be seen by looking at a part of Sylvie that had rusted off a while ago. In Suho Ahn’s eyes, the woman in front of him was no different from Sylvie’s natural enemy.

‘This is probably the worst match I’ve ever met.’

Even if the Dawning was prepared, you prepared very well. Thinking so, Ahn Soo-ho read the actual expenses. Sylvie, who was trembling, begins to calm down at his touch.

‘Certainly, rust is lethal against metal. But it’s not like there’s no way to attack it.’

From Suho Ahn’s point of view, Rusty Nail’s ability seemed to be activated only through contact. Because of her speedy attacks that you can’t even touch, if you pour her many attacks so that you can’t catch them all at the same time, you’ll be able to catch her faster than her rust.

“Go.”

Ahn Soo-ho thought so and pulled out dozens of tentacles from behind his back. The next moment, the tentacles all flew towards Rustynail.

However.

-Tuong! More and more!

Just before the tentacles touched, the translucent reflective field around her bounced off the tentacles.

“I don’t let it go like that. Ahn Soo-ho.”

A profound voice heard right after. Ahn Su-ho bit his lip at the sight of Aegis walking leisurely from the other side of Rusty Nail.

‘Yes. It’s not a game, can’t they kindly fight one-on-one?’

With the appearance of Aegis, Ahn Su-ho retracted his tentacles and turned the magical power he had been spending on Sylvie into superpowers. He had already experienced that formless and fluid acting was the main thing to counter his ability.

“Arthur. You will never defeat us.”

Looking at Ahn Soo-ho, who began to gather dark smoke in her right hand, Aegis said.

“Do you know that we tried to attack you without any preparation? Didn’t he come this time because he had the confidence to receive the silver from the beginning? If you surrender now, I won’t kill you. I’ll finish it at the line of cutting off the right arm that contains the primordial silver.”

If you hurry up to stop the bleeding and go to the hospital right away, you will be able to live. Suho Ahn snorted at Aegis’ words. But in reality, the inside was very nervous.

An Aegis that reflects all physical attacks, and a Rusty Nail that makes even Sylvie rust.

Both of them were annoying opponents to deal with. It would not be an exaggeration to say that at least physical attacks through Sylvie were virtually sealed.

Although he had superpowers, Sylvie strengthened only his physical abilities. It wasn’t like Kang Ha-neul’s skill that strengthened his psychic powers. That thing gripped his ankle painfully.

“Huh. Judging by the look on your face, you look pretty nervous too. But I won’t wait long. Just give me 10 seconds. Decide whether you will surrender quietly within it, or lose your life to us while resisting.”

10, 9, 8, 7. Aegis slowly counted down the seconds and got into position. However, Ahn Su-ho never had any intention of surrendering. Rather, taking the opportunity of the 10-second respite he gave, he started compressing the black smoke to the limit in his right hand.

The situation was extremely unfavorable. 1 Vs 2 right now. With Cube added, it was a 1v3 fight. Ahn Su-ho’s side should have had an outstanding history as a special task force member, but most of them were stuck in a melee and it was difficult to support him.

However, there was no option to back down. Even if it is a lonely and unfavorable battle, I will definitely overcome it.

“Ten seconds over. As promised, I will kill you right here.”

Thinking so, it was the moment Suho Ahn clenched his fists.

-Twoong!!!

A fist protruding from the side of the Aegis. He reflexively set up a reflection field to stop the unexpected surprise attack and turned his head.

“You bastard… ….”

There, Heo Seong-chan was frozen with his right arm covered in blood. Seeing the wound, Aigis laughed in ridicule. I don’t know who it is, but I don’t know the identity of the reflective field, so I think I broke my arm myself.

However.

-Teoong!!!!

Ignoring the wound on his arm, Heo Seong-chan threw out his fist again. That, too, was immediately blocked, but Aegis could not help but panic.

‘You keep hitting it after being hit by the reflective field once? Aren’t you thinking?’

That question was resolved the moment Aegis saw Heo Seong-chan’s arm. His arm, in the form of a twisted spring, effectively absorbed the impact of Aegis’s deflected fist. On the contrary, the absorbed shock was used as a rebound to unleash a series of even stronger blows.

-Tuong! Empty! Thuddeong! The more the more the more the more the more!!!!!!

“Ooooo!!!!!”

Heo Seong-chan wields his Western liquor ink with full vigour. With that rage-like series of attacks, the reflection field that Aegis focused on the side began to crack. Aigis couldn’t help but be astonished at that appearance.

‘My reflective field is cracked?’

The strongest shield that has never been broken before is about to break. The moment he thought so, Heo Seong-chan’s fist finally penetrated the reflection field. Aegis and Rustynail were immediately distanced from each other and were not hit by the fist, but both were equally shocked.

“Heo Seong-chan. Why are you…….”

And Ahn Su-ho was also surprised by the situation. Why did Heo Seong-chan, who was an enemy just a moment ago, attack them as if he were helping him?

“…… You did. My client this time is the one who betrayed me once.”

Heo Seongchan lowered his head and breathed heavily.

“Because the thing I hate most in the world is a traitor? I don’t know what’s complicated, but if you collapse here, isn’t it good for the client? How can you look at something like that! You can’t leave it like that! Besides, you have to fight me and die to me! But do you think you’re going to let someone else kill you!?”

Saying that, Heo Seong-chan stood beside Ahn Su-ho. With both of his fists pointed towards the Aegis. As if it were his colleague.

“Heo Seong-chan?”

“So that’s it! Temporary Alliance! I haven’t forgiven you yet! I’ll fight with you specially this time!!! Because you have to die to me!!”

Looking at Heo Seong-chan shouting like a villain character in a cartoon with a completely incomprehensible logic, Ahn Su-ho thought.

This guy is a crazy guy who can’t figure it out.

“…… Okay? Thank you!”

But for today, I was grateful for that madness. Ahn Su-ho said to him, clenching his fists tightly.

“Go in first! I’ll make a gap, so aim well and attack!”

“Noisy! I can’t do anything complicated like that! You know what to do with me!”

The next moment, Heo Seong-chan kicked the ground with the elasticity of the spring. And a beat late, Ahn Su-ho followed suit.

That’s how the one and only joint battle that will never happen again in the lives of the two began.
