Seoul Station’s Necromancer Chapter 65:
Chapter 65 – Unexpected Loot
The atmosphere was grave . When Woojin took a step out of the entrance, the soldiers took a hesitant step backwards .
“Tell that pig **** to come out . ”
“…… . ”
At Woojin’s words, the North Korean officials, the members of the South Korean delegation, and the foreign reporters all thought of a single person in their head .
Moreover, they felt shocked by the conviction behind his words .
Woojin’s words were basically a declaration of war . Moreover, he said it in the heart of North Korea .
“If he doesn’t come out, then I’ll go to him . ”
When Woojin took another step forward, the soldiers reflexively got in his way . Their eyes were filled with terror, and Woojin’s indifferent eyes swallowed their terror .
Woojin was about to raise his hand when a cat jumped out from behind him .
“Uh-whew . Master uses too much brute force-ahong . ”
Bibi stood ahead of Woojin, and she wave her cute pink paw . Bibi’s body shuddered, and black flower petals scattered like snow towards the people gathered around the site .
“Mmmm . ”
All the soldiers and the reporters slowly closed their eyes, and they slid to the floor .
“That wasn’t necessary . ”
“Nyahng . This is more effective . What if you get sued after you killed them without any cause-ahong? This is earth-ahong . Earth . Stop creating complicated situations-nyahng . ”
Well, if he killed everyone here then being sued wasn’t the only thing that would happen… Is it because she watched a lot of tv? Bibi was more sensitive to how society worked on earth .
If he could avoid annoying situations, then he wouldn’t object to it . Woojin didn’t want to kill indiscriminately . He just had to kill the one who dared to order a terrorist act of bombing on him .
He’ll cool his anger by chewing on the person’s soul .
He planned on walking past all the sleeping people, but it seemed not everyone had fallen asleep from Bibi’s ability . These existences had magical resistance . They were Roused .
“Hey, **** hole . Do you think our Republic is a pushover?”
“I knew it would eventually turn out like this . We shouldn’t have let a South Korean brat into Pyongyang . ”
These were the North Korea’s Roused in the Supernatural Force .
At commander Ri-pyunggahn’s orders, they had blended into the groups of soldiers .
<Lv 62 Ri-sukjae>
<Lv 57 Oh-myunghwan>
<Lv 54 Hwang-haesoo>
…… .
There were one Rank A and nine Rank B .
This was probably the team who would have tried to clear the Dungeon after Woojin came out . They had been placed here on standby .
They blocked Woojin’s path .
Woojin looked at them one by one .
“What? Asshole . ”
“…… . ”
Who cares if he stared at them? At Woojin’s words, the Roused started activating their abilities .
When Woojin saw this, he grinned .
“Yes . This is how it should be . ”
He wanted to cut off the head of the snake . It would be more absurd if the underlings ignored such an act . Before they could ready themselves, Woojin summoned Bone Spears .
“Hoong . ”
As expected of high rank Roused, they easily avoided his attack, but Woojin was aiming for something else .
Jiiing .
Woojin took couple spirits out of his Spirit Armor, and he shot out several Spirit Spears . The Spirit Spears chased in pursuit until they hit their targets .
“Hut! What is that?”
Some used barrier magic to block the attack . Some used attack magic to break the Spirit Spear instead .
While they were distracted for a moment, Woojin had already let fly his bone arrows .
Poo-shook!
“Ooh-ook!”
Woojin continuously shot out his arrows . The Warrior Class’ Archery skill allowed Woojin to be very proficient in shooting the bow . It let him shoot the bow like an expert .
However, several Roused immediately counter-attacked after blocking the arrows .
This Roused had a very fast and sharp attack .
His quick sword was on par with Lee-yunhwee . He remember being stunned when she had injured his face .
However, his current level wasn’t comparable to before .
This was only a Rank A Roused’s attack .
Kah-ahng .
The bow in Woojin’s hand immediately morphed into an axe . With the change, he whirled the axe head around towards the lower body of the charging foe .
Kwahng!
The whirling blow made the opponent stagger from the impact, and Woojin immediately sent a Bone Spear towards him
“Koohk!”
Hoo-ooooohng, toohk!
Woojin took another step forward . The blade of the axe took off the opponent’s head from his body, and the head flew into the air . Woojin grinned and he attempted a Resurrection .
<The special condition has been fulfilled . Dullahan was summoned . >
The battle knight with a severed head .
Dullahan has superior in ability compared to the normally resurrected corpse . The condition is fulfilled if the opponent is a 6th Circle Rank A, and the Resurrection is used when the Roused’s head has been cut off in battle .
It is a cumbersome requirement, but the result is surprising .
It isn’t a clumsy corpse .
“Koohrahhh . ”
His movement was similar to how he moved before death, but his strength and destructive ability increased substantially .
Dullahan, who was still wearing the North Korean army uniform, grabbed its own head . Then it charged towards the North Korean Roused, who had been comrades only few seconds ago .
“Ooh-ahhhhhhk . ”
When had they ever had the chance to fight with a dead corpse? No, this person used to be their comrade, but now they had to fight against his corpse . The battle was resolved pretty fast, and Woojin absorbed the Roused souls into this Spirit Armor for storage .
Puhhhng!
Several corpses exploded . Several Skeleton Soldiers and Skeleton Magicians appeared .
Weeeeeeng .
Dolsae was summoned in his light form, and he circled around Bibi’s head . If given the command, Dolsae could pull the rubbles to himself to form a body .
“Let’s go . ”
Woojin moved his feet towards the Memorial palace . He didn’t care where Kim-jungun was hiding . If he moved towards Ggaebi’s energy, he’ll be able to find Kim-jungun .
He dared to attack an opponent from the back . Woojin would praise his boldness as he gave Kim-jungun a miserable death .
This time Che-haesol blocked Woojin’s path .
“Please stop . ”
At the unexpected situation, Woojin eyes was filled with curiosity .
“You were a Roused?” (TLN: hehe)
She didn’t have much of a presence, so he hadn’t checked before . When he activated his Warrior’s sense to observe Chae-haesol, she was a level 11 . She had barely reached the 1st Circle . She was a Rank F Roused .
Normal people were between lvl 1 to lvl 9 .
She had a trifling amount of magic resistance, yet she was able to resist Bibi’s sleep curse . Her mental toughness was commendable .
“Please stop . We can still salvage this situation . . ”
Woojin grinned .
“You always speak as if I made some accident . ”
She is going to salvage situation? Well, Woojin could only be dumbfounded at her words .
“But the accident will start now . ”
“…… . ”
Ten high ranked Roused of North Korea’s Supernatural Force had died . In the middle of the Memorial Palace’s square, 300 soldiers were put to sleep alongside the reporters .
‘An accident that is bigger than this… . ’
Che-haesol’s head suddenly throbbed . She knew he wasn’t kidding from the look in his eyes . Moreover, she had witnessed him kill 10 high rank Roused, who had been helpless against Woojin .
“Koorahhh . ”
The corpse held its head by its side, and the eyeballs rolled around the socket . The sight was more than grotesque . Even the Skeleton Soldiers, who had shown up after the corpses exploded, felt unreal to her .
Haesol swallowed her saliva .
She had never seen someone who was this stubborn .
“Please stop . I beg of you . ”
“Why?”
“It’ll be war . This might erupt into a war . ”
This was an armed conflict inside Pyongyang .
It was an unprecedented event .
This was going to cause a huge ripple effect .
The problem was it wasn’t necessarily a good ripple effect .
“What war? I just have to teach that pig a lesson . ”
“…… . ”
Does this mean he can’t punish the pig?
At Woojin’s indifferent answer, Haesol stared blankly as she lost the ability to speak .
“I hate **** who stab me in the back . I can’t forgive him . ”
Stabbed in the back? Then the mysterious man, who entered the Dungeon, was a North Korean agent sent to attack Woojin?
Still, he had to hold himself back .
“Please think about your homeland . You can’t start a war . ”
“Jeez . Stop babbling . You talk too much . I won’t start a war . ”
Woojin walked deliberately towards Haesol, who was blocking his path . Every time Woojin took a step closer Haesol’s heart thudded in rhythm with his footsteps .
When Woojin was right in front of her, her heart was beating so fast that she wondered if her heart had escaped her body .
“If you don’t want to die then get out of my way . ”
“…… . ”
She felt a chill run up her spine at Woojin’s words . Che-haesol bit her lower lip .
“Then please kill me instead . You have to restrain yourself . I don’t know what happened in the dungeon, but please curb your anger . This isn’t the way to do this . ”
At Haesol’s words, Woojin quietly looked at her .
Yes . He could hold himself back . However, didn’t he need a reason to do so? He had no reason to hold himself back . The pig sent a suicide bomber to him, so why should Woojin spare him?
“Please… . ”
Woojin’s fist planted itself into Haesol’s stomach . Haesol’s body folded into itself like a shrimp from the single blow, and she slumped to the floor . It would be painful, but the blow wouldn’t kill her .
Woojin looked around his surrounding . No one was awake to block Woojin’s path . He saw voyeurs watching from a distance . They moved busily, but he didn’t really care about them .
*
*The tunnel leading to an underground bunker beneath the Memorial Palace . *
Do-rooroorooroo!
Tee-riiiinnng!
A gun emplacement placed in the wall fired, but the Spirit Armor blocked everything . It couldn’t hit Woojin .
Kwahng!
Woojin’s hammer hit the wall, and the gun emplacement twisted, and it collapsed with the wall .
“Heeek!”
When the thick wall protecting them disappeared, the two soldiers, who weren’t Roused, was filled with terror .
“Nyahng!”
Bibi immediately casted her sleep curse, and Woojin just shrugged his shoulder .
“Why bother with doing that?”
“Nyahng . It’s all right-ahong . ”
Woojin looked around the hallway filled with smoke . The smell of gun powder was quite strong . There was only one steel door left .
“Hey, Jungun . Why don’t we talk for a moment?”
“…… . ”
No answer came from inside . He was sure there was someone in there . He could feel Ggaebi’s existence across the door .
Maybe, he couldn’t hear Woojin’s voice?
Kwahng, kwahng!
It was a steel door that could withstand an explosive . Woojin struck it with his hammer, but it didn’t budge .
“Chet . Hey, Dolsae . ”
“Weeeeeng”
Dolsae was already level 27 .
His basic form could use dirt to make his body . At level 10, he could use stones . Moreover, he was able to use metal at level 20 .
Koo koo koohng .
The entire steel door was ripped away, and it started to form a shape . Dolsae formed in a crouching stance, and he immediately got out of Woojin’s way . The underground bunker shook as pieces of concrete fell from the ceiling .
“Heeeek!”
The door itself turned into a golem . He could see a frightened Kim-jungun and his bodyguards from the Security department inside .
Woojin grinned when he saw them .
“Should we have a little talk?”
His smile was crueler than a smile from a devil .
“You dare try to kill me?”
“Comrade . I’ve never gave such an order . ”
Kim-jungun replied with a shaky voice .
Monster .
He was a monster among monsters . The Supernatural Force’s Roused demonstrated for him couple times, but none of them were like Woojin . Woojin was outspoken, and he was an impossible opponent to beat . Kim-jungun really felt the threat to his life .
He had hidden himself yet Woojin knew where he was like a wraith, and Woojin had come after him .
“Well, there is a way I’ll be able to find out the truth . ”
When Woojin grinned, a paper thin shadow exited Jungun’s shadow, and Ggaebi was reabsorbed into Woojin’s shadow .
‘Mmmm . ’
He experienced what Kim-jungun’s shadow felt and experienced, while Woojin was inside the Dungeon . Then Woojin’s eyebrows furrowed .
‘He really didn’t do it?’
Bibi shook her head at his embarrassing situation .
‘Master made an accident again-ahong . Just resolve it in an amicable manner-ahong . ’
He had already ran wild once, so his anger had lessened a little bit . Still, he wasn’t planning on forgiving anyone . Kim-jungun wasn’t the only one who needed to receive his punishment .
“Hey, Jungun . ”
“Please speak, comrade . ”
“Find me the man who ordered the suicide bombing on me . I never let live someone who stabbed me in the back . ”
“I give you my word, comrade . I’ll find the one pulling the string from behind at all cost . I will hand out an exemplary punishment . ”
At Kim-jungun’s words, Woojin grinned as he raised his hand for a handshake .
“This was my misunderstanding . Sorry . ”
He had turned Pyungyang inside out . Woojin didn’t know if an apology would be enough, but…
“No . It is my fault for not keeping my subordinates in line . ”
“If there weren’t any misunderstanding, then we could have been good friend . ”
At Woojin’s words, Kim-jungun made a expression of regret then he shook hands with Woojin .
Woojin laughed as he saw Kim-jungun’s ample fat on his chin . The feared dictator leading North Korea was a mania for the Roused… .
His mania was so fierce that he collected numerous Artifacts even if he didn’t have any abilities .
It was weird .
Moreover, he was fan of Woojin…
‘Then I’ll accept these presents, comrade . ’
Woojin grinned . He knew where all the Artifacts were kept inside the Memorial Palace . Moreover, he also knew about Kim-jungun’s hobby room, where he stashed away a lot of Artifacts .
‘Comrade Kahng-woojin smiled, while he was looking at me . ’
Kim-jungun matched his smile .
The Roused held strength that was beyond the limit of human . Kim-jungun’s respect towards the Roused was much deeper than what Woojin had suspected .
