The sky’s stained by the light of dawn, on the shore of Incheon
Teul teul teul……
A fishi+ng boat slowlycloser to its destination
Both the fishi+ng boat and the ocean were silent
Teul teul tuk, tuk!
Aed fro boat
The boat came to a stop and a man appeared in the cockpit of the boat
A man with a sword strapped to his back
‘Yeongjongdo, it’s been awhile’
Kiolf course near where the boat had stopped
Hisof the gigantic Incheon International Airport which was located behind the golf course
‘Incheon International Airport’
There weren’t h Incheon International Airport
But above all, it hen he had come back home after a mission overseas and had entered civilian life in Incheon International Airport Like that, Kim Tae Hoon washed away his traces
To him, Incheon International Airport was a place where he distanced himself from his military life
It was also the place where he realized that he was alive
‘There are no bad memories’
It was the last place of coreen ranked monster
“Hu!”
There was no hed It was a sign that the harsh winter had finally passed
His sentimentality ended there
Kim Tae Hoon moved to the back of the boat and stood in front of a pile of boxes
There was a bag inside one of the boxes he opened The bag looked like an instru out as inside, it was obviously not an instrument
It was a gun with a long barrel unlike that of a norun
‘It’s been awhile’
It was a PSG-1 Sniper Rifle, a sniper rifle loved by many enthusiasts all over the world It was also the weapon that Kim Tae Hoon was the most familiar with
It was the partner that Kih both thick and thin with
Even now not ed
Kim Tae Hoon now had the firepower and means to deal with any problems that came his way
It was a given that Kiht the enemy head on
It hat Kim Tae Hoon did best
‘Time to shohat a show of arms is like’
7
A show of arms wasn’t a simple display of violence
A show of arical technique used to pressure the eneth
So as needed in order to pressure the enemy?
The answer is simple
Fear
Even as, the most effective motivator was fear
However, even given that fact, instilling a sih
What wasthe fear of sudden and unforeseen death, a fear of a death that could come at any moment wit
hout any rhyme or reason
‘Huuu’
Atop an apartdo, Kihts aimed on a brown skinned orc with the intent to instill that exact fear
Tooong!
A bullet flew out of the barrel accompanied by a dull sound
The bullet reached the end of its trajectory and pierced through the orc’s forehead
Tulsseuk!
The orc collapsed onto the floor, a hole having appeared on its head
The other orcs quickly gathered around the fallen orc
Anger welled up in the orcs, resulting in thes
But being 1 kilometer away, Kim Tae Hoon did not hear any of it
Toong!
Looking through his scope, Kiain
The orcs that had gathered around the corpse of the first orc also soon become corpses
One by one, the bodies of the orcs simply piled up to the point where no other orcs dared to approach
Kihts once more
Five
It was the number of orcs that he had just hunted down
‘Barely a hundred over the past four days’
It was an inefficient hunt
If Kim Tae Hoon were to show himself to the orcs, dozens of them would flock to him in mere moments
It would only take about a breath’s time to take care of them
On the other hand, Kiet rid of ten orcs in an hour by using the sniper rifle
Nevertheless, it was still a distance of one kilometer
‘The study period is over’
It was a distance that would take even one of the fastest creatures on the planet, the cheetah, at least a minute to reach– a distance that would trivialize death
‘It won’t be long before a gap appears’
The choice that thesean unprecedented fear was simple
To hide
There was no other choice The orcs would hide anywhere they could to hide from the sudden reaper’s scythe
‘I just need to wait for the ogre’s patience to hit the floor’
It was their leader that would be a challenge
Twin Headed Ogre
The longer the orcs hide, the longer they’ll starve
Furtherre itself was a heavy eater Not only was its body huge, but it also needed to feed two heads It needed to eat many human corpses a day
How long could such a beast endure its hunger?
No, rather, does that unbelievable beast even have the patience to wait it out?
Keuuuuuh!
Keuuuuuuh!
At that do frounsan Mountain
[TLN: In the naun Mountain]
The two roars ain
‘As expected’
Kirit his teeth
The Twin Headed Ogre’s Fear directed at Kim Tae Hoon was at a level that he had never felt before
The poas overwhel
‘It’s really not a joke’
This was the reason for Kim Tae Hoon’s show of arms
‘As expected, to go against this Fear…… a direct confrontation is out of the question’
It would be iht head to head with the monster while under the pressure of this Fear
When exposed to this Fear, the Energy residing in Kioes blank, and his heart starts to beat uncontrollably
Furthermore, that was all he could do when faced with that Fear He couldn’t do anything with his Telekinesis, his sword, his Energy, nor his arrow
So the re, he would be severely disadvantaged considering his limited options
So his only option was to soap that he could exploit
So Kis
‘It shouldn’t be long before it throws caution to the wind, watching neither his front nor back and charging in like an enraged bull That’s the only chance I’ll have’
Kim Tae Hoon skillfully dis case, and prepared to jump to another apartment complex’s rooftop
Paat!
He skillfully landed on the roof of the apart next door
The large leap that Ki that not even olympic jumpers could compare to
Paat!
The figure of Ki from roof to roof eventually became smaller and smaller until he disappeared
8
Keuaaah!
Keuaaah!
Height, ten meters
Its body was like that of a building, the Twin Headed Ogre grabbed two orcs with both hands
Keureu, Keureu!
Keureeeeu!
The two orcs trapped in its grasp struggled to get out
But as soon as the Twin Headed Ogre exerted just a bit of strength, Bbudeudeuk!
The orcs’ bones snapped like cookies, their eyes popped, and blood streamed out of their ears and eye sockets
The Twin Headed Ogre shoved the corpses into its mouth
Bbagak!
Bbagak!
It played with the bodies as it devoured the two orcs
Euhgeuk!
Euhgyuk!
A frightening sound rang out
The gathered orcs, although terrified, did not dare to flee and could only stand still and tremble
Ast the orcs, the black skinned orcs pushed a nure
Keuh!
The two orcs that had been pushed forere consure that had consuo approach them
Ggwak!
Instead of grabbing the orcs like he had done before, the Twin Headed Ogre lifted its hands and smashed doards towards the orcs
Ggwareung!
The ground shook as its fists s all over the ground
The orcs’ bodies were in a grueso a mosquito, the orcs’ bodies had become two dimensional smears
Koong, koong!
The Twin Headed Ogre lifted its fists and se
Now even the orange eyes of the Black Skinned Orcs began to tremble in fear
Every single orc knew the source of its rage
Hunger
Many of the orcs had recently been unable to tribute enough food to fill the Twin Headed Ogre’s stomach
It was because of their decision to hide out of fear
