The Evil Bastard of Murim

Crannng!

As the guard’s grip on his sword loosened, the sound of the sword hitting the ground could be heard.

Wolryung smiled brightly at this.

“Good. Good. Now...”

It was then...

Thud!

The door suddenly burst open and in the next instant a sword was descending upon Wolryung’s head which made his eyes widened.

“...F*ck...”

The closer it got, the bigger it became.

However, before the sword could hit Wolryung’s head, Jin Ho who had moved toward his young master the moment this man moved from the door toward his young master, swung his sword at the man’s sword, making it bounce back with a clang.

The man, his balance broken, gave a displeased reaction. But Jin Ho didn’t waste any time and before the man could fix his balance he thrust his sword forward targeting the man’s side chest.

“Tch!”

Clicking his tongue the man immediately let himself fall to the ground as he couldn’t dodge the sword because of his broken balance.

Thud! Cranng!

However, Jin Ho didn’t stop at that. From mid-air he swung his sword down toward the man. There was no way the man could dodge this attack as his sword had already fallen to the ground. It looked like it was the end for him.

At that exact moment the guard screamed.

“Wait! That’s our vice leader!”

Swoosh!

The sword stopped mid air by an inch from the man’s head.

“Tch!”

Clicking his tongue like he was displeased by this, Jin Ho pulled his sword back.

“Don’t ever show this kind of foolish act in the future or you might lose your head.”

With that, Jin Ho went toward Wolryung and the chubby boy who still looked terrified.

On the other hand, the vice leader, still looking up at the ceiling, let out a soft breath.

“Whew... I thought I was about to die.”

“Ah, vice leader. Are you alright?”

The guard approached him with a worried face.

“I’m fine. But...”

He glanced toward Wolryung and the others.

“Who are those people?”

“Hm...”

The guard also looked toward them.

“Actually, I also don’t know. But they don’t seem to look like any bad people.”

Meanwhile Jin Ho also approached Wolryung with a worried face.

“Y-Young master... Are you ok?”

“Huh?”

Still wide eyed, Wolryung looked at Jin Ho.

“J-Jin Ho... W-Was I about to die just now?”

“...”

‘Looks like he is fine.’

“Anyway, you’re out of danger now.”

“Where? Where is that bastard who just tried to kill me?!”

Wolryung now burst out in anger.

“Did you kill him?!”

“Ah, kill?”

“...What?”

Wolryung’s eyes went wide again in disbelief as he looked at the man perfectly fine who had almost killed him a moment ago.

“You didn’t kill him?!”

Filled with madness, Wolryung was now shouting loudly.

“That bastard just almost killed me! And you spared him?! Does that make any sense to you?!”

With an awkward look, Jin Ho tried to calm him down.

“I-I would’ve killed him, young master. But he is the vice leader of this alliance branch.”

“So what?!”

“Huh?!”

All of their faces went stiff at that. Even the vice leader and the guard’s faces also hardened.

“I said, so what if he is the vice leader, huh?! Does that give him permission to kill innocent people as he wants?! What if you were a second late, huh?! My head would’ve been on the ground by then!”

Ah, that’s true. But how could Jin Ho kill the man after knowing he was the vice leader. However he was also feeling like killing that arrogant vice leader for attacking his young master. But he refrained himself from that. Their family was already on the verge of collapse. So he couldn’t just make a rash decision.

With an awkward smile, Jin Ho tried to change the subject.

“Ah, young master. Let’s discuss this later. We have a much bigger problem than that. You remember?”

Right. Those underworld bastards.

“Tch!”

Clicking his tongue in frustration, Wolryung shot a look of killing intent toward the vice leader.

“Just you wait you bastard! I’ll make you pay hard because of that arrogant behavior of yours!”

As the vice leader felt a bit uncomfortable by that, a sweat formed on his forehead.

‘I think I made a huge mistake.’

***

“So... What you’re saying is that there is a spy in the Alliance who is gonna bring some unwanted guests by the secret path and you want us to open that path also for you?”

“Yes.”

Wolryung nodded in agreement with the vice leader. Though his voice still carried a bit of irritation on it.

“But, how can we believe you? We don’t even know who you guys are.”

At that reply, Jin Ho, the chubby boy and Cheon Jo felt a bit sad.

‘Right. They can’t just believe in us.’

But there was someone who reacted the complete opposite.

“...What? Is this f*cker for real?”

“...”

Now, he was cursing an elder right in front of his age. At least respect his age.

“Can’t you read the room here?! Can’t trust us, huh?! F*cker! Who asked for your trust?!”

“...”

Those words stabbed like a sword into the vice leader’s heart.

“This is also your damned problem! If that spy bastard brings those individuals here it’s finished as hell! Or do you just wanna die that badly, huh?!”

“...”

“If you wanna die that badly then go die by yourself! Don’t drag us into this!”

“Ah, no. Young master please stop.”

Jin Ho tried to stop Wolryung who was going all wild now and was about to hit the vice leader.

“Why are you stopping me?! Kill that bastard or it’s the end for us!”

“...”

Well, what he was saying was true. They couldn’t argue about that.

Jin Ho glanced at the vice leader with eyes filled with killing intent.

“...”

“I-I’ll open it.”

With an awkward smile the vice leader agreed with them.

It wasn’t because he was scared of Jin Ho. Well, in fact he was scared of him but that wasn’t the only reason he agreed. Though Wolryung’s words were harsh but at the same time they were the blatant truth. If what he said about the spy was true then of course it would be a great danger which would become the reason for the branch to fall apart. And he was feeling shame now that he was questioning them at a time like this. If they wanted they could just kill him. And here he was distrusting them earlier.

“Hmm...”

“What are you doing?”

Wolryung glanced at him, narrowing his eyes.

“Huh? I said I’ll open the secret path.”

At that answer Wolryung went wild again.

“Then why are you just sitting there, you f*cker! Open it already!”

“I-I apologize. I’ll open it right away.”

What a shameful life I have! To think there would come a day when I would continuously get cursed by a young man at this age...

Truly a shameful life.
