Only I Have Two Towers Episode 287

I Told You Not to Smirk

Near the Poland-Russia border.

Inside a car picking up speed, a man held up his phone.

# 삐— 삐— 음성사서함으로 이동합니다.

He grimaced and examined the list in his hand.

What the hell was going on?

All the lines that were supposed to help him in emergencies had gone dead.

Grk!

He was trying to ignore it, but he knew full well what this meant.

‘They’re cleaning us up? Us?’

The name of the unit the man belonged to was Spetsotriad.

A unit that handled tasks the state couldn’t officially carry out, known among high-ranking officials as Russia’s shadow.

As such, target assassination and cleanup were things they did as routinely as eating.

But now they were on the receiving end of it.

‘Who the hell? How?’

Question marks kept popping up endlessly.

The response was too quick for America or Europe to have gotten involved.

Besides, among the Wawel Castle operation participants, fewer than five people had this list.

It leaking out was nearly impossible.

“Damn it all!!”

In his frustration, he slammed the steering wheel.

It was supposed to be a guaranteed success, an operation with absolutely no chance of failure.

But everything had gone to hell.

What kind of variable would have to interfere for things to get this bad?

‘Where is General Anastasia…!’

That was the part he understood least.

This whole situation had started with her absence.

The Korean National Intelligence Service and hunters currently deployed in Wawel Castle?

Anastasia could kill them all within five minutes.

But she wasn’t doing that, which meant she wasn’t at Wawel Castle.

He didn’t think someone had captured Anastasia.

That was unimaginable.

Then where the hell had she vanished to?

Vrooooom!

He stepped on the accelerator to increase speed.

He was dying of curiosity, but solving the mystery would have to wait.

First, he had to get out of Poland… Flash!

Light blocked his vision, and how many seconds had passed?

The car, having collided with something solid, flew into the air.

The vehicle spun several times before crashing onto the empty road.

“Urgh…!”

The man barely crawled out of the driver’s seat, breathing heavily.

A shadow fell over him.

When he looked up, an unwelcome face was standing there.

‘Son of a…’

The person who should have died without fail in this Wawel Castle operation.

It was Cheon Se-yeon, the South Korean ranker the man had brought from Charles Bridge.

Cheon Se-yeon, having confirmed the man’s face, let out a sigh of relief.

She had really rushed to chase him, worried he might cross the border.

“Hand over your phone, you bastard.”

The man swallowed dry saliva and pulled out his phone from his jacket, handing it over.

Cheon Se-yeon examined it from various angles, then frowned deeply.

“Damn it, I just bought this recently and the screen’s all cracked.”

It was scratched all over and beyond repair.

Meanwhile, the man who had grasped the situation let out a hollow laugh.

“So it was Korea? The one cleaning us up?”

If not, Cheon Se-yeon couldn’t be here right now.

She must have tracked him down after being exposed on the list.

“Ha…! Can you handle it? Or are you going to beg America or the European Federation for protection?”

“I don’t know about that.”

Cheon Se-yeon approached the man.

“I warned you at Charles Bridge, didn’t I?”

Then she raised her fist.

“I told you not to smirk.”

Whack!!

The man’s eyes rolled back from the punch that landed on his face.

Foam bubbled up from his mouth.

“Now I finally feel better.”

Cheon Se-yeon brushed off her chest and stared at the desolate road.

She had come with the single-minded determination to give him a beating, but now how was she supposed to get back?

It was becoming a somewhat daunting night.

University Hospital located on the outskirts of Krakow.

Creak.

When the nurse left, Roche opened her closed eyes.

Then she quietly got up and walked to the window.

It was roughly the height of the 5th Floor.

Her physical condition wasn’t great, but it was a manageable height to jump from.

The moment she opened the window and put one leg over.

“You’re not really going to jump, are you?”

A voice came through the open door.

Cheon Se-yeon entered, drenched in sweat from whatever she had been doing.

“Where are you going in that condition?”

“Please pretend you didn’t see this. It’s a bit embarrassing being caught in this position.”

“First, put your leg down. If you insist on going, I won’t stop you. Everyone has their circumstances, right?”

After thinking for a moment, Roche shrugged her shoulders.

It wasn’t like something terrible would happen if she didn’t go right now.

“Sorry. I smell like sweat, don’t I? I had to go beat someone up.”

“I’m honored. Coming to visit me without even showering first.”

“Right? I don’t do this for just anyone. Lie down a bit. Since I came to visit, I’ll at least peel you an apple.”

Roche chuckled and obediently sat on the bed.

Cheon Se-yeon washed her hands at the sink and picked up an apple and a paring knife.

Scrape. Scrape.

Roche, who had been watching, spoke up.

“I think this is a bit rude to say, but…”

“Yes?”

“May I peel it instead?”

Cheon Se-yeon looked down at the apple.

It had definitely been palm-sized, but now it had become half that size.

She obediently handed over the apple and paring knife.

“Actually, I don’t peel them at home. I eat them with the skin on. But it seemed a bit inappropriate to give them to a patient like that.”

“Please eat.”

Roche handed over the apple before she even finished speaking.

Se-yeon’s eyes shook terrifyingly.

The peel was cut so thin that moonlight could practically pass through it.

“Well, I’ll eat it gratefully.”

She accepted the apple with a slightly embarrassed face and ate it.

Polish apples are incredibly sweet.

“Like last time, why are you always trying to leave in such a hurry? As if you’re someone who can’t stay in one place.”

Roche, who had been chewing the apple, pointed at Se-yeon with her finger.

“That’s correct. I can’t stay. Especially not in places that don’t suit me.”

“What kind of places don’t suit you?”

“Places where there are people who wouldn’t want me to disappear.”

Roche smiled and leaned back against the bed.

“The name of the unit I belong to is Spetsotriad. It’s a brigade-level unit that handles all kinds of dirty work. I’ve been training and growing up there since I was 6 years old.”

Se-yeon put down the apple she had been chewing as Roche calmly continued her story.

Somehow, even hearing it directly, it didn’t feel real at all.

The story was that unrealistic.

For someone who grew up normally in an ordinary family environment.

“Spetsotriad values assets created with time and money… or more precisely, weapons. That’s why they absolutely won’t tolerate situations or relationships that could cause a weapon to lose its proper function.”

“Like in movies where they come and slice people up or blow things up? I thought that was only done during the Cold War era.”

“It’s actually gotten worse. Thanks to awakening abilities, there are now many more options for killing someone. Spetsotriad is a unit optimized for this kind of work. And I betrayed that Spetsotriad at Wawel Castle. This time I did it so blatantly that the unit must have already noticed.”

Roche breathed quietly and closed her eyes.

“Before long, the unit’s execution team will be dispatched. Their purpose is the complete elimination of the target. To achieve their goal, they don’t care about time or place. They eliminate everything.”

“That’s brutal.”

“They absolutely won’t stop until my death is confirmed. Now you understand, right? Why I need to quietly disappear through the window.”

Roche, who knew Spetsotriad better than anyone, had made that judgment.

When there was no guarantee she could protect everyone in this hospital, how could anyone stop her?

“Then before you go, can I ask you just one thing? I think you might know.”

“Of course.”

She showed the memo Jinhyeok had left.

# 62.4371 108.9055 #

“It seems like latitude and longitude, but when I look at satellite photos, there’s nothing but snow, rivers, and forest. Do you…?”

Se-yeon stopped speaking.

For some reason, Roche’s eyes had grown wide.

Roche, who seemed to have realized something, opened her mouth.

“Where is Jinhyeok right now?”

“Well. I haven’t seen him since earlier. He left his phone with me so I can’t contact him either. A transport helicopter of unknown affiliation did come to Wawel Castle earlier, did he leave on that?”

Roche swept her hair back and looked at the coordinates.

She didn’t know how Jinhyeok had obtained these coordinates.

But one thing was certain.

The longitude and latitude before her eyes were pointing exactly to it.

The base of the brigade called Russia’s shadow, Spetsotriad.

High in the sky, far from the target point.

“Yodel Ranger Unit Commander Kancheo! Descent preparation complete!”

He spoke as energetically as possible, but was actually whispering very quietly.

Because Dominic in the cockpit shouldn’t hear.

“Kancheo. Are you really okay? The wind is really strong too. You’re not going to get blown away again, are you?”

“No! Airborne operation experience is essential to become a Yodel Ranger!”

“Did the Yodel Forest have parachutes too?”

“I jumped holding frog tree leaves! They float gently!”

“Nice. If the parachute doesn’t open or it’s dangerous, immediately cancel the manifestation. You can come back again.”

“Roger!”

“I’ll signal the strike point with a smoke grenade.”

Kancheo gave a fluffy thumbs up and securely put on his yodel goggles.

“Beginning descent!”

As soon as he finished speaking, he jumped down below the helicopter.

‘The whole world is white!’

Strong wind swept his small body away, but he didn’t panic.

Sometimes strong typhoons would come to the peaceful Yodel Forest, and each time he would run out and practice descending.

‘Landing point confirmed!’

After memorizing the position, he deployed his parachute at the appropriate moment.

“Eh?!”

Caught by the wind, the parachute moved further and further from the intended point.

In times like this, he was supposed to pull some rope to do something.

He had listened too carelessly while filling bullets with clay.

“Landing complete!”

The position was way off, but he had come down anyway, so it was fine.

Kancheo cut the parachute with his yodel knife and burrowed under the snow.

Thud thud thud thud thud thud!

Kancheo advanced through the snow like a mole.

So what if he landed wrong?

He could just go again.

Pop!

Kancheo arrived at the destination peak and stuck his head out.

Perk perk!

The enemy’s hidden base came into view.

Perfect.

He had come to the right place.

He took out various equipment from his bag and laid them out.

First, he planted a yodel flag to gauge the wind.

“Right 4 Kancheo-meters, up 2 Kancheo-meters adjustment complete!”

He shouted loudly and took out Volkanu the Amplification Master’s slingshot.

And then he waited.

For the signal Captain Yoo Jin-hyeok would send.

Just as he was about to become a snow yodel in the middle of the snowy plains.

Colorful smoke rose from the destination.

Perk!!

He spun his body around to shake off the snow, then loaded a large piece of clay into the slingshot.

“One clay round loaded!”

He pulled the string with maximum force and tilted the slingshot to the pre-calculated angle.

“Aiming complete!”

Then he released the tension from his hands.

“Fire!”

The clay amplified by the slingshot.

스아아아아아아—!!

Drew a red tail as it crossed the dark sky.
