Episode 69

 

Episode 69

 

-Baaaam!!!!

 

I drove my fist straight into Park Woo-jun’s face.

 

“Keuuuk!!!!”

 

Park Woo-jun groaned as his nose burst with blood.

 

-Thwack!

 

-Thud!

 

-Crack!

 

-Baaaam!

 

I gave him no time to rest and kept driving my fists into Park Woo-jun’s face.

 

Until his nasal bone broke, his cheekbones collapsed, and blood flowed down to completely soak his chin and neck.

 

“St, stop…”

 

-Crack!!

 

Before he could even start speaking, a fist was driven into him.

 

-Crunch…!

 

And then, broken teeth falling to the floor.

 

“Hey, what the hell are you doing, you bastard?”

 

“Keuuuk…”

 

“Why are you attacking people?”

 

“I, I’m sorry… sir…”

 

“Oh? From the way you’re talking, it seems the madness has worn off?”

 

“Yes, yes…”

 

“Does madness originally get cured when you get beaten up?”

 

“Keuk! Kek!”

 

Park Woo-jun struggled as I grabbed him by the collar and lifted him up.

 

“I came here knowing all about your traits, you bastard.”

 

“Kuk…”

 

“You have status ailment immunity, don’t you.”

 

“Yes, yes, th, that’s right…!”

 

Shake shake.

 

As I grabbed his collar and shook him, Park Woo-jun began whimpering and panting.

 

“You should be hunting goblins, not people.”

 

“I, I’m sorry…”

 

-Baaaam!

 

“Sorry for what.”

 

“Kek…!”

 

“You bastard who’s already eyeing items and backstabbing people.”

 

“…”

 

“How many people almost died because of you?”

 

“…”

 

“Do you think people who risk their lives climbing the Tower are a joke?”

 

Items can be obtained anytime.

 

But people are different.

 

When I thought about how the people I care about could have formed a party with this trash, it was natural to get angry.

 

Cha Ye-rin, Baek Ha-rim, Kang Da-gyeong, Yu In-seok…

 

Especially Ujeongmin, who’s still officially affiliated with the Management Bureau.

 

-Baaaam!!!

 

Drip drip drip.

 

Blood and tears flowed together from Park Woo-jun’s face.

 

It didn’t seem like he was shedding tears out of remorse for his wrongdoings,

 

but rather crying like a child, overwhelmed by pure pain.

 

This bastard who’s so desperate about his own pain.

 

Yet he tried to push countless others into pain?

 

How ridiculous.

 

-Crack!

 

As I threw another punch,

 

Park Woo-jun’s head snapped back.

 

Cough, cough, Park Woo-jun coughed up blood.

 

“You…”

 

Then he opened his mouth.

 

“You, if I go back like this… ”

 

He’s going to pass out while talking.

 

“No matter how much it’s you, the Management Bureau…”

 

“No matter how much it’s me, the Management Bureau.”

 

“Won’t let this slide…”

 

“Won’t let this slide?”

 

-Nod nod.

 

Ha!

 

I couldn’t help but burst out laughing.

 

Right now Park Woo-jun was seriously mistaken about something.

 

The Management Bureau won’t let me slide?

 

“As if that would happen.”

 

“Report…”

 

“Report?”

 

-Nod nod.

 

“You’ll report me and tip them off to send me to hell?”

 

-Nod nod.

 

Park Woo-jun barely nodded his head with his bloodied face.

 

“What are you going to report.”

 

“Huh…?”

 

“I’m asking what you’re going to report.”

 

“…”

 

Park Woo-jun looked at me with disbelieving eyes.

 

As if asking whether I couldn’t see his own battered state.

 

His nasal bone was broken, his teeth were broken,

 

It would be faster to find places that weren’t broken.

 

But.

 

So.

 

What.

 

“Haah…”

 

I sighed and pulled out an item from my inventory.

 

Golden liquid contained in a round bottle.

 

I got this from the last raid.

 

I gave it to Cha Ye-rin the first time.

 

But this time I was wondering what to do with this.

 

There’s no chance of getting hurt,

 

But selling it would also be a bit…?

 

“Geez, I was wondering where I’d ever use this thing.”

 

I gently shook the panacea in front of Park Woo-jun.

 

“This would be perfect to use here.”

 

“…!”

 

Park Woo-jun’s eyes wavered.

 

“Do you know what this is?”

 

Of course, there’s no way he’d know.

 

The [Panacea] was an item you couldn’t even catch a glimpse of in Silver-grade boxes or below.

 

“It’s called a [Panacea].”

 

“…!!!”

 

“As long as you don’t die, you can recover from anything.”

 

“Kugh…!!”

 

“Tower items are really amazing, aren’t they?”

 

Did he realize what was about to happen?

 

Park Woo-jun began thrashing around like crazy.

 

“It’s such a waste to use this on a bastard like you.”

 

“Ugh!”

 

“But from what I can see, if not now, there won’t be another chance.”

 

“Uuugh!”

 

-Whack!!!

 

He kept struggling and trying to grab his dropped sword somehow,

 

so I punched him in the face again.

 

His handsome face was now a complete mess.

 

Anyway, once he drinks the [Panacea], everything will return to normal.

 

“From now on, hyung will give you a proper mental education.”

 

* * *

 

“I… I was wrong….”

 

In a state where it wouldn’t be strange if he collapsed at any moment,

 

the one kneeling politely was none other than Park Woo-jun.

 

“Right now, that person is unconscious in the hospital because of you, you bastard.”

 

-Whack!

 

I cheerfully smacked the back of Park Woo-jun’s head.

 

-Drip drip!

 

Another nosebleed poured out.

 

Park Woo-jun shed tears while clasping his hands together and begging desperately.

 

“I repent! I repent!”

 

“You shouldn’t be apologizing to me, but to that person.”

 

-Whack!

 

“I’ll go out and definitely apologize!!”

 

His pronunciation was slurred because his teeth were broken.

 

“I’ll never do this again!!!”

 

Now Park Woo-jun was completely banging his head on the floor.

 

“Tsk tsk tsk.”

 

Honestly, I don’t trust him at all.

 

In the face of fear, people can say anything.

 

He might say he’s sorry now because I beat the hell out of him,

 

but who knows what he’ll do starting tomorrow—that’s the true nature of bastards like Park Woo-jun.

 

-Grab!

 

“Keh…!”

 

I grabbed Park Woo-jun’s jaw and opened the panacea.

 

Once he drinks this, Park Woo-jun will recover completely.

 

Simply put, it’s destroying the evidence.

 

-Glug glug glug!

 

I held it to Park Woo-jun’s mouth and poured the panacea straight in.

 

-Gulp! Gulp!

 

Park Woo-jun began shedding tears, perhaps happy that he wouldn’t have to get beaten anymore.

 

Despite being on the verge of death,

 

Park Woo-jun’s body began recovering rapidly.

 

‘As expected, the panacea is different.’

 

It’s not called a panacea for nothing.

 

The effect is really certain.

 

It’s just a waste to have used it on someone like this.

 

No, maybe it’s not really a waste?

 

If Park Woo-jun restrains himself after this incident, many people will be safer.

 

“My, my teeth…!”

 

Even his shattered teeth had completely recovered to normal.

 

-Whack!

 

I relaxed my strength and lightly(?) smacked the back of Park Woo-jun’s head.

 

“Ahhh!”

 

“Stop being dramatic and get up, man.”

 

Why is this guy so dramatic for a man?

 

Being this dramatic, yet he went around harming others so easily.

 

“Thank you! Thank you, hyung-nim!”

 

Afraid he might get hit again,

 

Park Woo-jun kept bowing his head and shouting his thanks.

 

Tsk tsk.

 

I clicked my tongue and threw away the empty panacea bottle.

 

-Flinch!!!

 

Did he think he was going to get hit?

 

Park Woo-jun was startled and frightened.

 

Such a coward….

 

“Park Woo-jun.”

 

“Yes, hyung-nim!”

 

Park Woo-jun answered loudly.

 

Even though I just looked at him, he was constantly sweating.

 

“You stole that from a victim too, right?”

 

“….”

 

“Not going to answer?”

 

When I raised my hand again, Park Woo-jun was startled and covered his head.

 

“Yes, yes, th-that’s right!”

 

“Return it to them as soon as you get back.”

 

“Yes, hyung-nim! I’ll return it right away!”

 

Park Woo-jun kept nodding his head.

 

He has no choice but to be obedient right now.

 

He knows that I can kill him anytime.

 

Moreover, here inside the Tower, there’s nowhere to report….

 

It’s quite ironic that Park Woo-jun himself had exploited that very fact.

 

“Hmm….”

 

I hesitated for a moment.

 

While Park Woo-jun was lying flat here,

 

there was no telling what might happen outside.

 

As I said, anything can happen in the Tower.

 

Which means it’s the perfect place for scum like Park Woo-jun to commit crimes.

 

“I should probably head back soon….”

 

As I muttered and glanced over,

 

Park Woo-jun’s face brightened.

 

He must think he’s finally escaping this hell.

 

-Thunk!

 

I stuck his sword… no, the sword he ‘stole’ right in front of Park Woo-jun as he tried to get up.

 

“H-h-hyung-nim…!”

 

Park Woo-jun collapsed with a trembling voice.

 

His face was filled with fear as if sensing death.

 

“There’s one last thing I need to tell you.”

 

I smiled as I faced Park Woo-jun.

 

“You swore you wouldn’t do anything from now on.”

 

“Yes, yes, absolutely nothing…!”

 

“Honestly, anything can happen in the Tower, right?”

 

“Yes, yes…. Yes?”

 

“Accidents, I mean. Like what happened just now.”

 

Right? I asked, and Park Woo-jun nodded with a pale face.

 

“So here’s the thing.”

 

“Yes….”

 

“Every climb you participate in from now on.”

 

“….”

 

“I’m going to receive reports on all of them.”

 

“What?”

 

His eyes showed he didn’t understand.

 

I grinned at him like that.

 

Just like Park Woo-jun had looked at me at first.

 

“If someone dies there, you know?”

 

“….”

 

Park Woo-jun’s face grew paler and paler.

 

“Then you die too.”

 

“What…?”

 

Park Woo-jun looked at me with a face mixing fear and injustice.

 

“Even if you didn’t kill them.”

 

-Gulp.

 

“You’re dead.”

 

“….”

 

“You understand what I mean, don’t you, Woo-jun?”

 

Park Woo-jun’s body trembled like a leaf.

 

“Let’s do well, okay?”

 

“…Yes, I understand.”

 

“Good.”

 

“I’m truly sorry, hyung-nim. I learned a lot thanks to you.”

 

“Your tongue’s too long. Shut your mouth.”

 

“…Yes!”

 

I pulled out the sword I had stuck in the ground.

 

And,

 

-Wheeze….

 

-Stab!!!!

 

I drove the sword straight into the heart of the Goblin Shaman that was still breathing.

 

-Flash!

 

With the 19th Floor cleared, reward boxes appeared before us.

 

Park Woo-jun’s was bronze,

 

and mine was only silver.

 

Probably because we wasted so much time.

 

But still….

 

I don’t regret it.

 

It was worth investing the time!

 

‘I might unexpectedly have teaching talent….’

 

Park Woo-jun became obedient(?) so quickly and listened well.

 

It was even quite rewarding!

 

‘Not bad.’

 

I returned with unexpected satisfaction in my heart.

 

* * *

 

“H-how on earth did you do it?”

 

“Hm? Do what.”

 

“P-Park Woo-jun!”

 

“Park Woo-jun? Why? Did he cause another incident?”

 

“No, no, no, that’s not it!”

 

Kang Min-a waved her hands frantically.

 

If he didn’t cause an incident, then what?

 

“Park Woo-jun returned items to his victim.”

 

“Really?”

 

“Yes. He said he ‘accidentally’ acquired them….”

 

“Hmm.”

 

“He even paid all the victim’s medical expenses!”

 

“Oh.”

 

Kang Min-a’s eyes sharpened.

 

“What exactly happened…?”

 

“Nothing special.”

 

“Lies!”

 

“I just had a nice, friendly talk as his senior.”

 

“…Really?”

 

“Of course.”

 

I grinned as I looked at Kang Min-a.

 

“He turned out to be surprisingly easy to communicate with.”

 

Very~ much so.
