Chapter 146: Human Trafficking (1)
Chapter 146: Human Trafficking (1)
Um Bako, a member of the human trafficking organization, was taken aback.
I didnt even see the attack coming.
His gaze shifted slightly downwards.
The taxi driver who had been regularly dealing with the organization had turned into a corpse in an instant.
A scythe? Was he killed by that scythe?
How the scythe extended was not important.
What mattered was the speed at which it happened, too fast for him to react.
Gulp-
Even though he was holding an automatic rifle, Um Bako became tense.
Speed surpassing superhumans, weapons beyond common sense, a youthful face.
All things considered, it was clear that these were the rumored players.
A player To think I would face a player in my lifetime, damn it.
He had mistaken him for a middle-aged civilian due to his bushy beard, but it seemed he had disguised himself as a civilian to find their location.
You What are you? Are you from the police?
Um Bako spoke thoughtlessly, then corrected himself internally.
No, that cant be. We have all the local police in our pocket. Besides, that guy is Asian, right?
Um Bako aimed his rifle again without taking his eyes off his opponent.
Though the opponent was said to be a player, there was no need to be afraid with the invincible automatic rifle in hand.
If necessary, he could just shoot.
Even if his a player, hes just a human in the end.
Wouldnt a human die then?
Who are you? Which organization are you from!
If I told you, would you understand? Just come over here quietly.
Would you come if you were me?
Um Bako swallowed the words that reached his throat.
There was no need to provoke the player unnecessarily.
Not coming? If you wont, I will.
As Ryu Min took a step forward, Um Bako made up his mind.
Regardless of the opponents identity, he decided to just kill him.
Die! Motherf***er!
Ta-ta-ta-ta-tang!
Before pulling the trigger, Um Bako had pictured it in his mind.
Soon, the opponent would be riddled with bullets and bleed to death.
After all, even a player is human in the end.
No human can survive against bullets.
However, something unexpected happened.
Hes, hes unharmed?
Despite aiming accurately and shooting, the opponent stood there unharmed.
Blinking as if he had seen a ghost, Um Bako fired again.
Ta-ta-ta-ta-tang!
This time, he could clearly see it.
The man dodging bullets by moving swiftly.
dodging, dodging all those bullets?
In the span of 2 seconds, thirteen bullets were fired, yet not a single one hit the target.
Seeing was believing, yet it was unbelievable.
Ryu Min sneered at the surprised opponent.
Trusting only in your gun, huh? No chance.
With the runes of Balance and Slaughter, Ryu Mins agility was at 1,176.
Even against an automatic rifle which was faster than a pistol, dodging was not difficult.
Especially with the Rune of Foresight.
With a sneer, Ryu Min took another step forward.
Dont come! Dont come any closer! You monster!
Another round of bullets was fired, but
Tick- Tick-
Before long, the magazine was empty, used up more quickly than the trigger could be pulled.
Re-reloading
As he tried to replace the magazine from the ammo belt with trembling hands, he saw the opponent had come right up to him.
Gasp!
Um Bako, startled by the proximity, backed away.
Out of bullets, I see?
Eek!
Um, Bako stumbled backward and fell on his bottom.
Ryu Min didnt do anything.
He just watched as the guy trembled in fear.
Yamti.
Yamti, who had been hiding behind, peeked out her head.
Yes, Master.
Dominate this guy. Then order him to lead us to the organizations boss.

Step-step-
As Um Bako walked, his colleagues armed with automatic rifles ran up to him.
Um Bako! There you were?
We heard gunfire suddenly, what happened?
To their question, Um Bako shrugged as if it was nothing.
The humans we caught for trafficking fought back. Just sprayed the floor with bullets to scare them a bit.
By the humans you caught, do you mean those behind you?
Um Bako glanced back.
Behind him were Ryu Min and Yamti.
Yeah, thats right.
Even though Um Bako acknowledged it, his colleagues couldnt shake off their doubts.
Who keeps the people they kidnapped right behind them?
What if they were ambushed or ran away?
Somethings off.
More crucially, their expressions, devoid of fear despite being kidnapped, were telling.
Are those two the ones you kidnapped? Really?
Thats what I said.
But thats odd
The colleagues couldnt finish their sentences.
Ryu Mins scythe mercilessly cut off their heads.
Thuk- Thuk- Thuk-
Looking at the heads falling in the order they were cut, Ryu Min said coldly.
Keep going. To where your boss is.
It was time to start cleaning up the trash.

In a dank basement where not even sunlight could reach, Subina, an ordinary woman in her 30s, cried within the bars.
If I was born just two months later, I could have been a player. Then I wouldnt have ended up in this hellish place
Usually, becoming a player is seen as being sentenced to a short life, but Subina felt different.
Missing out on being a player by a few months left her with a lifetime of regret, especially being caught in this hellish place because she was powerless.
How much time has passed?
She didnt know how many days it had been since she was kidnapped, but she had seen a lot in this place.
Beaten like livestock for not liking ones gaze, or organization members greedily taking women away.
And when those women returned, their eyes were vacant as if screws had come loose.
It was obvious what had been done to them.
Occasionally, a stranger would appear, pick someone out as if shopping in a market, and take them away.
None who were picked ever returned.
Maybe Im better off than others? I havent been harmed yet
Subina remembered what the boss, who seemed to be in charge, said when she first arrived.
Your face and body are totally my type. Hey guys. Dont touch this one. Once Im done with my business, Ill start with her.
Got it, boss. Well take good care of her until then. Hehe.
Being favored by the boss for her looks was why she hadnt been harmed yet.
I definitely heard it. He said he would rape me.
Subina hugged her knees, burying her head.
Was this what a cow feels knowing its about to be slaughtered?
Knowing the terrible things that would happen made every moment filled with anxiety, jumping at every sound.
Wondering if it was her turn this time.
If I was a player, I wouldnt have ended up like this
The feeling of powerlessness ate away at Subinas mind.
Maybe, maybe it would be better to just bite my tongue and die
She thought of suicide many times, but the associated pain was too terrifying.
Yet considering the pain she would endure, suicide seemed right.
What should I do
At that moment, footsteps echoed in the quiet basement, not giving her time to think, fast as if determined.
Ah, ah. Its, its here. It must be the boss.
However, what reached her ears was an unfamiliar female voice.
Oh? Theres someone here too?
With her eyes closed in fear, Subina opened them slightly at the foreign language.
It was a woman.
Moreover, an Asian woman in a ridiculous outfit.
That outfit could it be a player?
Crack-!
