Chapter: 1661
Suddenly, So Gyeoksan�s expression changed.
�I have a request for you, Pyo-wol!�
Pyo-wol looked at So Gyeoksan with a blank expression on his face.
So Gyeoksan found it difficult to look Pyo-wol straight in the eyes.�
He had always known that there was a gap between them before, but he didn�t expect it to be greater now, to the point of being immeasurable.
Even when he took on the role of the leader in a traveling theater group, So Gyeoksan made sure to continue taking on simple missions to prevent his skills from being rusty.�
But even then, So Gyeoksan�s level was nowhere near Pyo-wol.
When So Gyeoksan first heard of the nickname, Reaper, he instinctively thought of Pyo-wol.
The first time he had heard the nickname was back at Chengdu in Sichuan. Since Chengdu and Sichuan were places that had given him unforgettable nightmares, he made sure to always keep a close eye on its movements even after leaving the city.�
That�s why, when he heard the name Reaper, he immediately investigated Pyo-wol�s whereabouts.
Knowing Pyo-wol�s unusually beautiful face, coupled with his ruthless hands and bold behavior, So Gyeoksan was convinced that the Reaper that people were talking about was the Pyo-wol he knew.
Pyo-wol had already become someone on a completely different level.
He could tell it just with the way Pyo-wol looked at him.
Although assassins are used to hiding their innermost thoughts and feelings, they could read each other�s minds to a certain extent. They could do so by observing the other person�s eyes, and gestures.
In other terms, assassins could quickly grasp the other person�s body language. But So Gyeoksan could not read any body language from Pyo-wol.�
On the contrary, it seems as if his nervousness and thoughts were the one being read by Pyo-wol.
He tried his best to hide his thoughts, but he couldn�t deceive Pyo-wol�s eyes.
Pyo-wol could clearly see how extremely anxious So Gyeoksan was at the moment. Although Pyo-wol didn�t exactly know the reason why So Gyeoksan was feeling that way, it was clear to him that So Gyeoksan was currently in a difficult situation.
�A request��
�Yes. A request.�
�I refuse.�
�You don�t even want to hear about it?�
�I don�t think I need to know. It�s probably a request that�s too much for you to handle, but since refusing to do so will result in dire consequences, you�re passing it on to me.�
�Asshole.�
So Gyeoksan made a frustrated expression without realizing it.
He had indeed come to Pyo-wol for that reason.
If he could use him well, he could resolve the matter without getting blood on his hands. But now that Pyo-wol had seen through his intentions, his plan was as good as ruined.�
�You�re a bastard with no ounce of kindness.�
�I�ll take that as a compliment.� JrNovels.com
