The Genius Assassin Who Does It All Himself

Escape (3)

* * *

While going down the dark slope, relying on the moonlight.

Ganghu thought while recalling numerous situations that happened simultaneously in a short moment.

In the process of escaping, he killed three guards. That didn’t happen in the original.

‘Considering my poor weight in this world, I don’t think the future will change to this extent.’

I hoped that the future wouldn’t be twisted until I grew up enough.

Because you can enjoy what you know.

Anyway, today’s change made the contract with the Constellation three years earlier.

The preparation to become stronger is over.

You must use these traits and abilities fiercely and constantly.

Otherwise, the reasons for choosing to escape will fade.

Sasat. Sasasat.

I heard footsteps approaching slowly along the slope.

It was dawn, so I couldn’t make out who it was, but there was one thing I could confirm for sure.

‘I’m a Hunter who signed a contract with the Constellation.’

It was a red dot on the head of the hunter who was tracking this way.

This is because the ability to steal constellations obtained from contracting with a dimension stealer was activated as an attribute.

If you have a constellation, your location is revealed because you have the constellation search ability that automatically displays a red dot above your head.

【Skillful Communicator】

[A constellation with a neutral orientation. A constellation with the ability to trace mana.]

‘Ah, that’s why you can track me down. You’ll feel the flow of mana.’

Without a single light from afar, I knew the reason why I could accurately specify this location and come.

Unless it’s a special case, that hunter will be at least level 100.

This is because, generally, when you reach level 100, you make a contract with the Constellation.

It is a procedure called ‘gantaek’.

Of course, contracts could have been made at a much lower level.

In the case of a Constellation with a lower status, there were cases in which an ignorant contractor was seduced and intentionally tied up early.

In the end, it all depends on your ability.

Anyway, if you’re a level 100 hunter, you can’t hope for luck in the current situation.

Head-to-head confrontation should be avoided.

instead.

‘I pull in and hit.’

Kang-hu, who had a good idea, stopped behind a thick tree that just happened to stand tall in front of him.

Even if they guessed where each other was, it was a perfect blind spot that they couldn’t see with both eyes.

wickedness!

Kang Hu cut his palm with the long sword he was holding.

Then, with a hand that was dripping with fresh blood, he grabbed a stone with all his might.

It was heavily stained with blood.

After a little while like that.

grasp!

I pushed the stone as hard as I could into a spot that was at eye level with the thick tree in front of me.

It was not difficult to push a flat stone into the tree trunk because it was deeply grooved.

He drew out all the remaining mana as if squeezing it out, and blew it into the stone once more.

“…”

Then, while holding his breath, he suppressed the mana hypersensitivity state.

This is because if you leave it in its original state, it will explosively attract mana around you.

Then the camouflage has no meaning.

“Woo-wook.”

I felt nauseous right away, probably because I was doing ‘things’ I shouldn’t have done. At the same time, it also tasted like iron.

Signs before passing out due to hypersensitivity.

Due to the excessive use and recovery of mana in a short period of time, the body is overloaded and cannot withstand it.

Ganghu bit his molars tightly.

After targeting the tree behind him and succeeding in horizontal movement, his body became transparent.

Pasut! Pasut! Taang!

Eventually, the Hunter, who used the movement skill to close the distance, threw herself away with all her might, adding momentum.

The location where the mana was felt was exactly behind the tree, so he concentrated his firepower there without worrying.

“You bastard!”

The weapon he was holding was an axe.

f*ck!

As the heavy ax blade struck the side of the tree, the entire tree shook and the axe cuts diagonally.

but.

“doesn’t exist?”

There was no most important being.

It was after the river.

The reward returned to the hunter who turned on the waste was a long sword that came out of nowhere.

Fu-wook!

“Kukkuk…!”

The longsword penetrated under the chin, passed through the middle of the face, and pierced through the top of the forehead.

Ganghu’s intentions were successful.

No matter how high-level a hunter is, he doesn’t have a steel jaw.

It was the defeat of Hunter, who had lost sight of the surroundings because he believed in his ability and was sure of Kanghu’s location.

【Killed the target and stole the contract with the ‘Skillful Communicator’.]

【’Skillful Communicator’ becomes a subordinate relationship to ‘Dimension Stealer’, and there is no escape other than extinction and termination of the contract.]

【All abilities of ‘Skillful Communicator’ will be inherited by you.]

The fact that this message popped up means that the Hunter is dead. Or no chance of survival at all.

“Loud, loud, loud…”

As Hunter collapsed with an expression of disbelief, he grabbed Ganghu’s body as soon as he was caught.

I had never heard of a Hunter who could rob a Constellation contract and make it her own.

I would have remembered

Because it’s like a scam.

However, the escaped prisoner who now stuck a long sword in his face had such an absurd ability.

cooong!

Hunter collapsed.

The heart that had stopped breathing could not beat again.

【Mana Tracking Ability】

【Night Vision】

“good.”

acquired useful skills.

Scary to acquire night vision ability, the dark vision changed as if wearing infrared night vision goggles.

The mana tracking ability will help this hunter find stealthed foes, just as he tracked himself.

but.

“Wow!”

Perhaps it was because he used too much mana with the previous blow, but this time an unbearable vomit came out.

It was also in such a bad state that red blood came out.

“If I push myself a little more, I’ll just die right here.”

Kang-hoo looked around.

A new road catches my eye at a location further down the slope.

And not far away, a dump truck loaded with sand was approaching.

“I have to take care of this at least once…”

Ganghu grabbed his dizzy head and took an ax, necklace, and bracelet from the dead hunter.

I didn’t even have time to check the configuration, I ran at full power, and threw myself hard on the sand of the truck.

Cheeky!

A body that has become one with the sand.

“Whoa.”

Kang Hu let out a hot sigh and looked at the dawn sky.

“It’s filthy clear.”

I fell in love with the twinkling stars and thought for a long time without saying anything.

Where should I start?

First you need a safe place.

* * *

30 minutes later.

A man who received the news that had just arrived from the Cheongmyeong camp was checking the contents.

Donghyun Kang.

He was the 3rd in Eclipse’s hierarchy and the de facto captain, excluding the 1st and 2nd, whose identities were hidden in a veil.

Eclipse, a criminal organization raging in the Chungcheong region, was famous for manpower exploitation.

In particular, he hired a lot of workers in the magic stone mine, and the magic stone became a lot of money.

The Age of Hunters opened and some minerals turned into magic stones, and Cheongmyeongsan Mountain was also a magic stone mine that changed like that.

“You’re smart enough to think about going out the front door. Confidence unsuitable for an inmate must have been a weapon.”

Donghyun Kang nodded.

I don’t know how he came up with the idea, but I admire Kang Hu for finding the most obvious answer.

【After Xinjiang】

【Level 10. Assassin class.】

[All items were confiscated at the time of admission, and there is no training information after that. No residence information identified.]

We also checked the information of Ganghu enclosed in the form of a report.

Like most inmates, it was a novice specification that could not even fight properly against the guards.

No matter how flying and creeping he is, even a single guard would instantly render him incapacitated.

Even if he was the lowest-ranking 3rd grade jailer, he had the basic skills to go beyond the minimum level of 35.

however.

“A level 10 hunter caught 45, two 55, and up to 100 with a constellation here…? You crazy bastard, this.”

Donghyun Kang lit the cigarette in his mouth.

To believe the report straight away, I feel like an idiot with my eyes open.

Common sense makes no sense.

If you are a level 10 hunter, your dungeon combat experience will be limited.

Even after living in the camp for more than two years, the combat sense itself would have almost disappeared.

I don’t know what kind of goal it is, but it takes a powerful blow to get those hunters out of hand.

“One stabbed the side of the neck from behind with a chopstick. The two were put in the back seat and their heads were split. The last guy has the ability to track mana, but he got stabbed under the chin…?”

It’s a thrilling result.

It’s to the point where I wonder if this is enough to ask him to kill me.

Kang Dong-hyeon was not angry at the fact that Kang-hu escaped.

Because prisoner escape is common.

The absence of strong forces does not mean that work is paralyzed.

He’s a worker anyway, so if you kidnap him again, that’s enough.

However, since he is a level 10 hunter who overpowered a hunter with a fairly high level at once, he is interested.

“You’re interested in a strange place.”

Kang Dong-hyun’s eyes deepened as much as the cigarette smoke he inhaled.

I never thought that there would be something to pay attention to the escaped prisoner who was defined as a loser in life.

However, Kang Hu’s move was special enough to be worth it.

* * *

Near Daejeon Station.

Ganghu, who managed to find a pay phone that is hard to find, recalled his memory and made a call.

It was a number that came to him naturally and was deeply embedded in his subconscious, synchronized with Xin Kang-hu in the original work.

– hello?

A woman’s voice is heard.

familiar voice.

It seemed like we had been properly contacted, so I was relieved.

“It’s me, Kang-hoo.”

– Go, Kang-hoo oppa?

“uh.”

– brother! What the hell happened, I haven’t been able to contact you for over 2 years? No matter how much we broke up…

It sounded like a bruise, but a voice filled with sadness and sorrow came out.

Her name is Seoyeon Han.

She was Kang Hu’s ‘ex’ girlfriend.

They broke up due to personality differences.

So even though we broke up, we kept in touch often with the feeling of a common male friend and female friend.

Two years ago, contact was cut off.

There was no way she knew what had happened to Kang-hu.

“It happened.”

I didn’t have the strength to say everything, so I cut off my words briefly.

Although time has passed, since they know each other better than anyone else, she also changed her answer to Kang Hu’s words.

– Brother, what do you need?

“Just one day. Let’s rest at your house.”

– okay. I’ll pick you up right away. Where are you?

“A public phone next to Exit 5 of Daejeon Station. Sorry.”

– I’m sorry. Considering what my brother did to me in the past, this is a natural reward. wait! Go soon!
