Thud!
Headshot!
“Ahhhh!”
“You damn bandit! You dare trick me, huh?!”
Thud! Thwack!
“Argh! Sir, I’m sorry!”
“How dare you scheme against me?!”
Thwack!
With the sword sheathe that Jin Ho gave him, Wolryung was beating the bandit leader here and there with all his might.
Thud!
“Uhhh, my arm!”
“My head! E-It hurts! Please don’t hit me!”
“Don’t scream, you bastard! If you scream one time I’ll hit you two times.”
“...”
What a pathetic sight.
Though Jin Ho and the chubby boy understood why Wolryung was so furious after being tricked, the escort members couldn’t understand why he was suddenly beating the bandit leader himself.
Wasn’t he the one who said to stop beating them earlier? Now he was beating the bandit leader like some animal.
‘Didn’t he tell that young warrior to stop or the bandit leader will die?’
The escort agency leader, Han Seokwo, really couldn’t understand this situation.
‘Why are you beating him yourself then?’
Thud!
“...”
Thwack!
“...”
Wow! Look at him! The bandit leader was really taking the beating quietly and didn’t let out a single scream.
Could people really take that horrible beating so quietly?
No...
Thud!
“...”
Though the bandit leader wasn’t screaming, he was crawling on the ground pathetically.
Thud!
“...”
His entire body was trembling and he was gritting his teeth so tightly as if he was holding back something.
‘We can see it.’
Thud!
They could see it. They could see the bandit leader’s other invisible face which was screaming like some crazy dog being tortured.
‘At this rate he really might die.’
Thwack!
“...”
Don’t worry. We will pray for your soul so you can at least make it to heaven. You at least deserve that much after getting beaten like that.
Even the bandits were praying for the bandit leader secretly like he might really ascend to heaven today.
“Huuuu...”
But that didn’t happen as Wolryung had finally stopped beating the bandit leader.
“...”
‘Looks like he won’t ascend to heaven today.’
“I feel a bit refreshed now.”
Wolryung wiped the sweat from his forehead and gazed at the bandit leader.
‘I want to beat him more.’
Though Wolryung claimed he felt refreshed, that wasn’t quite true. He was still furious enough to beat the bastard bandit leader to death. But his body betrayed him.
‘This damn weak body...’
No matter how much he wanted to beat him up, he didn’t want to die of exhaustion at least. And now that he had taken the measure to beat the bandit leader himself, he couldn’t just tell Jin Ho to beat the bandit leader. If he did that the others might get suspicious of his power.
Hadn’t word already spread through the Western Sichuan Alliance Branch that he had defeated the Moonlit Sword during the ambush? And since the escort agency went to the branch to pick them up, they must’ve heard it themselves. In that case he couldn’t show any weakness here.
Life is truly difficult if you become popular.
‘How troublesome.’
“Hmm...”
Looking towards the bandits with a thoughtful face, Wolryung sat down on the field, cross-legged. Then in an instant he changed his face, giving a broad smile.
“Let’s all sit down and talk.”
“...”
Talk? What is there to talk about, you evil thing?! You already beat us like some beast!
Well, not like they could say it out loud. So, all the bandits along with the bandit leader sat on the ground with polite and innocent faces.
“What is it, sir?”
“Hmm...” Wolryung looked at the bandit leader, thought for a moment and then asked. “Why did you guys try to act like the green mountain bandits?”
“...”
The bandit leader looked really offended by that question. This bastard was asking that question now?
‘You should’ve asked that question before the beating.’
Inside the bandit leader was really crying now.
Anyway, he needs to answer or he will get another beating. That’s for sure.
“Ahem... As you can see, sir. We aren’t that strong.”
“Well, true. And that’s more of a reason you shouldn’t act like them.”
“Huh? Nah, sir. You’re wrong about that one. It’s because we act like them that we’re able to make a living.”
“...?”
Wolryung was a bit surprised by that answer.
“You guys are so weak... Who would believe that you are the green mountain bandits?”
“But you believed.”
“Huh?”
“You believed we were the green mountain bandits, didn’t you?”
“What... What did you say?”
Wolryung was greatly affronted by this.
“You bastard! Are you asking for it again?!”
Seeing Wolryung losing his calm, the bandit leader started panicking.
“I-I’m sorry, sir. B-But that’s the truth.”
“Tch!”
This bastard was annoyingly right. How embarrassing!
Wolryung really didn’t like this bandit leader. Every time he opened his damn mouth, he was wounding Wolryung’s pride.
‘I wish I really could beat him more.’
His hands were itching to beat this bastard even more. But what could he do? This damn weak body...
Only if his body wasn’t this weak.
Wolryung was gritting his teeth hard as if they could break any moment.
‘Calm down, Junho. Calm down. It’s over if you lose it here.’
Wolryung sighed deeply to calm himself down then said again.
“But we caught you, didn’t we? I’m pretty sure many other escorts would’ve won against you without any trouble. There is no way you could win against most of the escorts of the murim with this much power.”
“That’s true. But we never needed to fight them.”
“...”
“We just demand money, and seeing me wearing this uniform, they don’t dare to fight us and instead leave after politely handing over the money. We demand very little, after all.”
“...”
That answer doesn’t match with their actions, though.
“But even when we were trying to avoid a fight you guys insisted on fighting us.” Wolryung raised an eyebrow. “Are you lying to me bluntly now?”
“No, no, sir. We aren’t usually like that. That was a special case.”
“Special case?”
What was special about it?
“That bastard!”
The bandit leader pointed toward someone.
“That bastard was the reason we had to act like that!”
“...”
Wolryung turned toward the direction where the bandit leader pointed. And looking at the person who was the main reason for this incident, Wolryung looked totally displeased.
It was the bastard from the Mount Hua Sect.
