Chapter 199

Jack the Ripper.

Murderer Jack.

A serial killer known by two names. Either way, the meaning is the same.

That bastard is that famous serial killer.

He was a cunning human who operated while thoroughly concealing his true appearance.

A mindset that regarded murder as both hobby and art, while simultaneously considering his own identity something he couldn’t let go of. It was a perfect criminal mindset.

‘Especially those red eyes…’

As far as I know, he chose the same color as his younger sibling as a backup plan to frame Hades if necessary.

However, despite preparing for contingencies, in the original story he never revealed his appearance to ordinary people until his final murder.

‘Though the Female Lead and Helios do discover his identity.’

But now. In this reality where I exist, he’ll be exposed at this very moment.

Because I’m here.

“What an ill-mannered guest. The main gate is over there.”

“…”

He definitely took the kick and felt the impact. He pulled his body back simultaneously to minimize the damage.

‘As expected, overflowing with martial arts talent.’

I clenched and unclenched my hand.

My current appearance was my true form.

In the silence, the serial killer’s eyes narrowed as he looked at me.

“Can’t be helped. I have no choice but to welcome you as the house owner.”

I spoke quietly. Along with this, Kia coiled around my hand and a heavy gun barrel wrapped around my palm.

As naturally as breathing, I pulled the trigger without delay.

Bang!

The bullet embedded in an empty tree.

“What to do, it was a decoy. Over here.”

Bang! Bang!

The gun spat fire again. It was bullets extending from a different direction, not from the gun in my hand.

Whoosh!

Dust clouds were thick because the opponent moved noisily. It was deliberately scattered dust.

A sword thrust out from between the dust clouds.

Clang!

I blocked it, but the force was tremendous.

‘Oh no, did it break?’

I calmly endured the pain felt in my fingers.

I blocked the sword coming again with the gun barrel and spun around once. Swish, the pistol quickly transformed into a rifle.

Bang!

When the gun barrel spat fire again from a kneeling position, the opponent was no longer there.

When the dust had completely settled.

The serial killer could be seen standing at an even more distant position.

Blood trickled down over his somewhat burnt skin. It crossed his cheek.

The man slowly rubbed his cheek.

“…That gun.”

I remained motionless while keeping my aim.

“So you really are Minte Limnades?”

“….”

“You’ve really returned.”

It was an affectionate voice. Filled with warmth as if looking at an old friend.

Originally, the more insane someone was, the less normal their behavior would be.

This was also a fact I had learned firsthand from rolling around endlessly in Niflheim.

“So what. Want to exchange names now? Fine by me.”

“….”

“But you know what. I exchange names with corpses full of holes too.”

Bang!

The fired bullet pierced through his shoulder. It seemed he tried to dodge quickly, but because he dodged, it pierced his shoulder even more precisely.

“By the way.”

I deflected the fist of the guy who had instantly closed the distance with my gun barrel, then immediately kicked upward.

Crash!

The Kia barrier he instantly deployed and my foot using Musculoskeletal Kia collided, creating a thunderous sound.

Shatter!

As the barrier scattered like glass fragments with a hissing sound, I calmly aimed my gun.

Tap. The cold gun barrel touched the serial killer’s temple.

“This is how I greet people.”

Bang!

The bullet fired without hesitation pierced through his head.

And then.

“Hehe, haha. Ahahahahaha.”

“….”

The ‘serial killer’ who was still alive even with his head pierced looked at me and laughed cheerfully.

Rather, he grabbed my collar with trembling hands.

“Why didn’t you die 10 years ago?”

“….”

“Things got interesting.”

His red eyes gleamed. The same color as That Guy Hades, but definitely eyes that had gone insane in a different way.

“You must resent me?”

“Of course. I resent you and feel bitter. How should I kill you in the most painful way possible.”

“….”

“I’ve been thinking about it for 10 years.”

The Serial Killer gently curved his eyes.

“Oh dear.”

The Serial Killer clicked his tongue as if regretful. Blood trickled from the pit.

“Countless people will think that way.”

I kicked That Guy and stomped hard on the fallen man’s chest. The Serial Killer gasped as if struggling to breathe.

“But not a single person has ever succeeded.”

I aimed my gun indifferently at his gasping face.

“What bullshit.”

Bang! Bang!

The gun spits fire three times. I looked at the clean holes and spoke calmly.

“Next time, come with your real body, you bastard.”

The Serial Killer’s eyes widened.

At the same time.

The body that should have become a corpse smoothly turned into smoke and disappeared. Seeing even the bloodstains vanish completely, I clicked my tongue.

“How can anyone catch him like this.”

Murderer Jack.

His real name is Deflon Carkeya.

That Guy’s first ability was…

Clone Ability.

* * *

“Oh my, what a disheveled state.”

When I returned home. In the reception room, I saw Oppa drenched in sweat.

He wiped his face.

“It was the worst game of hide-and-seek of my life…”

“Ah, that must have been fun.”

“…Let’s not talk about it.”

I looked at Pontos once more and then turned my gaze.

Behind Pontos stood Helios with a thoroughly displeased expression, radiating ‘I have complaints.’

When I stared at him intently, he slowly nodded.

‘So it was as I expected.’

“The Serial Killer appeared on your side too, right?”

“Uh… It was just as you said.”

Pontos wiped his face.

If something like this had happened when Mother was alive, it would have been terrible, he seemed to mutter.

“Now I finally understand. The reason why that damn Serial Killer left no clues for the past 10 years.”

“He wasn’t caught because he’s a Prince, not because he couldn’t be caught.”

“Right…”

The abilities of Kia Users were truly diverse, but broadly speaking, classifications existed.

Although they classified special Kia Users like me who can use all Kia as ‘Miscellaneous Type’ Users.

Considering that such people are so rare that ordinary Users never see one in their entire lifetime.

You can see that abilities are somewhat standardized.

“Clones, an ability that doesn’t exist in any records.”

In this situation, Deflon was born with an ability that never existed in history, and ran wild with his insane preferences.

“How on earth did you know?”

I blinked my eyes.

“Well, actually I have a very special Precognition Ability.”

“…Precognition?”

“Yeah. There’s a book containing some of this world’s future and special people’s secrets, and I read it over 10 years ago.”

“…Just say you don’t want to tell me.”

But it’s true. Why won’t he believe me?

I shrugged my shoulders.

Only Helios narrowed his eyes. Huh…It didn’t seem to be just because of my words.

Feeling purple eyes staring persistently at one spot, I subtly changed the subject.

“So how was it facing him?”

“…It was hard to believe it was really a clone. He was an incredible monster.”

Pontos glanced back briefly.

There was a reason I had Helios stay behind Pontos in advance.

“…If the Duke hadn’t been there, I would have lost at least one arm.”

“Oh my, that would have been terrible when you haven’t even gotten married yet.”

He says one arm, but if I hadn’t known in advance and prepared, I might never have seen Pontos again after today.

“Can a clone exert that much power?”

“It even appeared before me, so it couldn’t have been weaker than his usual clones, right?”

“Is that so? But Minte. He was certainly strong, but… I’m not sure if he was as capable as you warned.”

“Was it easy?”

“…To some extent.”

No ability is perfect.

All abilities have pros and cons, and Deflon’s ability has risks too.

While continuing our conversation, Helios strode over and grabbed my wrist.

“So how strong was the one that appeared before Master?”

At least Pontos’s side would have been easier since it was 2 against 1. Moreover, Deflon would have faced them without knowing Helios was there.

And my side…

“I learned one thing. That he put more effort into killing me?”

When splitting into clones, he can divide and distribute the original’s power. At least today, he must have sent the one closer to his original self to my side.

Helios’s face hardened frighteningly as he carefully touched my fingers.

Of course it would.

About seven fingers were broken.

And then one arm was also broken quite nicely and cleanly.

I spoke nonchalantly.

“Don’t worry. I won.”
