She just plans to stay in Runan for the meantime and watch the battle unfold between the two forces.
When she was about to pour alcohol into her empty glass,
�To think I would find you here drinking alone. This is something new.�
A dismal voice reached her ears.�
Without turning her head, Hong Ye-seol replied,
�Heuk-ho?�2
�Long time no see.�
A man slumped in front of her without permission. He was a skinny man wearing a black coat.�
�What brings you here? By any chance, are you here because of me?�
�Yes. I decided to take on the quest you gave up on.�
The man named Heuk-ho answered indifferently.
Hong Ye-seol�s eyes became sharp.
Heuk-ho belongs to the top five among the top ten assassins in the Hundred Wraith Union.�
He was an assassin of a higher order than her.
Although she belonged among the top ten, those above her were far more cruel and secretive than her.
�I can�t believe Heuk-ho is here.�
Hong Ye-seol did not expect this situation at all.
While she thought that another person would come take her place, she didn�t expect that it would be Heuk-ho.
It was extremely rare for a Heuk-ho to move.�
Unlike most assassins, it wasn�t money that drove him. He only cares about things that are of interest to him.
Hong Ye-seol asked,
�You�re not the kind of person who takes on requests that others have given up on, are you?�
�This is an exception.�
�Exception?�
�I think this is going to be fun.�
Heuk-ho grinned.
For a moment, Hong Ye-seol felt an eerie feeling.
The atmosphere Heuk-ho gave off was so gloomy that it made even his fellow assassins feel wary.
Heuk-ho�s outward appearance is just the tip of the iceberg.
Heuk-ho�s nickname in the Hundred Wraith Union is Mad Dog.3 His moves were no different from those of a mad dog who didn�t know where to go. JrNovels.com
