75 Daedonggye 1 (1/2)
The first thought Ganghyuk had was 'Who is it?” when he saw the man in front of him.
He could not remember him, although he tried his best to recall all the memories he had.
”Dolseok, do you know him?”
”No, I think I have never seen him before, although I cannot see him well because of the torch.”
”Really? If you don't remember him, who is he then?”
If Ganghyuk was a good man, he would not need to worry about a stranger.
He would not have an enemy right now.
However, he was not, so that could make a problem.
'Is he from the Flail?'
He tried to check the Flail, but he seemed to not to know him either.
He was about to attack the fellows with the club Makbong gave him after all.
'j.a.panese?'
It could not be.
How could j.a.panese bandits come to Hanyang?
Moreover, they wore Korean costumes.
'Then the fellows of the performance group?'
When Ganghyuk thought so and looked at them in detail, he found some familiar faces.
They were the fellows who received his experimental treatment at Ganghyuk's house.
”Ungrateful fellows! Did you forget my grace to you?”
When Ganghyuk shook his finger at a man, the pointed man shouted.
He shouted with his calf facing towards their direction which became remarkably thin.
”Grace? Did you say grace? Son of a b.i.t.c.h. I am still lame.”
”Be quiet. You cannot be proud to be beaten by such fellows.”
”No, brother. The man is really skilled. He is a strong warrior.”
The man pointed Makbong.
He might not notice Yeoni, because she looked so different in her medical girl costume.
Actually, she was the strongest.
”Shut up. Stupid.”
The man with the beard pushed him away.
Those who were complaining was thrown away by the man with the beard.
It was surprising to even try comprehending the amount of power someone had in order to throw away a man with a simple push, although he had some damages in his legs because of his fake Botox.
Makbong came closer to Ganghyuk.
He was sweating through all the tension.
”Sir, he is not an ordinary man.”
”No, definitely not.”
He pushed the man with finesse.
He must be a highly skilled Taekyeon expert.
Maybe he was comparable to Makbong.
”There are more than six of them.”
Yeoni nodded at Ganghyuk's a.n.a.lysis.
”There are eight including the two hiding beneath the shadows.
Ganghyuk's party were six.
However, one was Yeoju and she could not fight at all.
In terms of fighting force, Ganghyuk's party was half of what the man with beard had.
It may not be an accurate calculation considering their fighting skills may or may not exceed that of their opponents.
'This one, that one, and the one behind…'
At least three people were the ones that got Ganghyuk's poison shots.
They might still have difficulties to move.
'They might have PTSD.'
They might pee if they saw a syringe.
He had treated them without mercy after all.
”Dolseok, get some blowfish poison in the syringe.”
”Yes, sir.”
Ganghyuk gave syringes in the bag to Dolseok and came forward.
He wanted to know who the man with the beard was because he did not look like an ordinary man.
He did not want to treat a great man of his stature with rudeness.
Therefore, he decided to check if he was a man that he knew.
”This is like a child fight. Why are you here? You don't look like a gangster.”
Ganghyuk started to talk with a wry smile.
Then the man with the beard laughed.
”You are one rotten man as I heard. You look at me straight.”
Ganghyuk thought the was not an ordinary man.
'Are those hair on his chest?'
As far as Ganghyuk knew, people with thick hairs on their chest are strong.
You might laugh at his superst.i.tious belief, but Ganghyuk believed his judgment based on his experiences.
”I am Baik Ganghyuk. What is your name?”
”I am Byon Sungbok from Anak.”
”Byon Sungbok?”
”Yes, you might hear of my name. Kneel down, if you don't want to be smashed.”
Ganghyuk had never heard of the name.
'He is not a great man.'
If he were a strong man, he might do something in the war sometime later, and if he did, there would be no chance Ganghyuk had never heard of his name.
However, he was totally oblivious of his name.
He might be an ordinary man with an unimpressive heightened strength.
Ganghyuk wanted to make sure and turned back to ask the opinion of the other fellows.
”Have you heard of him?”
All of them except Makbong shook their heads.
Makbong nodded his head.
”Do you know him?”
”Yes, I know him.”
”Is he famous?”
”Yes, in Anak…I can say he is fairly famous.”
”For what?”
”For this.”
Makbong thrust his waist forward and backward.
It was not a good scene to see, as the man looked very obscene.
Anyway, in that case, Ganghyuk had no reason to avoid fighting with him.
Ganghyuk decided to beat him.
”He has talents in night work, right? Dolseok, are you ready?”
”Yes, but the syringes that you gave me are too big.”
”Yes, they cannot breathe, if they had the shots.”
”Then, do you want to use it as poison?”
”They are attacking us and I have no other choice.”
”Wow, they may go through funeral processes soon…”
Dolseok distributed syringes with 10cc diluted blowfish poison to the fellows.
All in all, they were more than 20. If they used it wisely, they could beat them with no effort.
Ganghyuk held one of the syringes and moved his body.
The needle under the moonlight gave some bizarre allure into it.
Some of them had already shown their fright.
They were the guys who had received shots from Ganghyuk.
”Byon what? I have never heard of that name.”
”Are you kidding me?”
”I am not kidding you. You may not know who I am.”
”It is not important who you are. The important thing is you treated my brothers badly.”
Byon Sungbok moved slowly.
He might be a skilled fighter. When he started to move, his strong spirit overwhelmed the scene.
However, Ganghyuk had already seen men with higher spirits.
Even though the finis.h.i.+ng blow was landed by Yeoni, he contributed to the fighting with him.
