Reversing Life With Legendary Skills! - Chapter 14

Players.

Those who live their lives attacking dungeons and hunting monsters.

But not everyone could attack dungeons.

Various occupations were in place, such as disposing monsters’ corpses or collecting animals and plants from the dungeons.

In the past, Jin-woo was a simple guide.

Some would ask, why don’t everyone train, get stronger, and become a player?

Surely, you can earn more money as a player.

Even Jin-woo did.

I once dreamed of becoming strong.

However, I felt I reached my limit.

The gap with those players increasingly widened.

Eventually, he chose to face the reality of the present rather than keep dreaming about the future.

That was why he chose to simply become a guide.

He thought it would be a safe route.

But in his case, it wasn’t.

‘I have them to thank for it.’

It was ironic.

They tried to kill him.

Thanks to that, he was able to go there.

He got a legendary skill and went through a lot of work.

‘Yes, I would not be able to get stronger without them.’

After some preparations, he left the house.

* * *

Pagak!

“Shhh!”

A fist struck the man on his face. He stumbled backward, bleeding from his nose and mouth.

A woman rushed to the man.

“Hey, honey!”

“Don’t worry; it’s okay…”

“Why, why are you doing this to us?!”

With a fearful voice and eyes, the woman looked at them.

Three men.

Just five minutes ago, they appeared to be kind.

But they suddenly turned crazy and started beating up her husband.

Her husband tried to fight. He was at level 120. He fired magic to defend himself.

But it didn’t work at all.

His water ball was destroyed by the fists of the guys.

The husband was not a match for one of these guys, let alone three of them.

“Auntie, don’t you know why we’re doing this?”

The yellow-haired man approached and sat down.

“Of course, it is money.”

The man smiled and made a gesture with his thumb and index finger, forming a circle.

“I’ll give you! Wait, here… This is my wallet!”

“Ah~ this is not enough. It will not pay for our labor costs. Shoot 50 million won by bank transfer.”

“Oh, 50 million won? That’s too much!”

“No? Then I can’t help it. You couldn’t afford the labor cost, but I have to relieve my stress, at least.”

Kwajik!

“Oh, awha!”

The man with glasses approached, carrying a club.

The man with the club brought down the weapon on her husband’s finger.

The husband screamed, grabbing his weirdly broken finger.

No… No!

“Oh, my God! Stop it!”

“Even if we want to stop, our labor cost is not paid.”

“I’ll give you! I’ll get it as much as I can!”

“Do it quickly.”

She turned on the smartphone with a trembling hand.

All the money they have in the bank is 35 million won.

It’s money she and her husband have struggled to save.

The money they collected little by little so they could buy a house.

But I can’t let my husband die, she thought.

‘What is this?’ the yellow-haired man snapped once he received it. It’s fifteen million short!”

“That, that… I’ll give it to you in a few days! please… please!”

Sobbing…

She barely had any money, and now it is all gone.

But at least her husband is safe. All she needs is her husband.

Life will be hard, but they can manage if they have each other.

“I’ll send you the rest of the money soon.”

“Alright then,” said the yellow-haired man. It looked like they have no intention to move.

“What else do you ne-need?” she stammered out of fear.

“You have seen all of our faces.”

“That’s… You said you’d let us go! You said we would be safe?”

“I did? When?”

Yellow Hair looked at his colleagues.

“Did you say that we would let them go?”

“I didn’t even speak at all.”, said one of them.

“Do you think we’re stupid enough to let you go?” Yellow Hair told her menacingly.

If she gave them money… she thought they could live.

The hope is gone.

“Anyway, you look pretty good for a married woman…”

Damn-!

Yellow Hair licked his lips with tongue.

He looked at the woman’s body with greedy eyes.

“Don’t do this!”

“What can you do?” Yellow Hair started to move closer.

The man in the glasses was also loosening his belt.

The third guy, a handsome man, shook his head.

“Anyway, you perverts. Finish quickly. I’ll go to the club; you can meet me there later.”

“I’m glad.”

Suddenly, there was a voice heard in the dark.

“Because you are more trash than I expected.”

“What are you… … .”

Shhhh!

The handsome man felt a strong impact on his abdomen.

He was choking.

Huh-!

Then he saw a black shadow coming up from below.

I have to avoid it… he thought.

Kwajik!

The body did not listen.

The fist just hit his chin.

Thud!

The handsome man fell. He could no longer be called handsome.

His jawbone is crushed, and the tongue is stretched between the lips that are swollen and not closing correctly.

His front teeth were all broken and ugly.

“What, what?!”

“Taejun!”

Suddenly, when they noticed that their friend fell, the two remaining men rushed in.

Then a man walked out in the dark.

Red light shone gently from both hands of the stranger, whose face was covered with a black mask and a hat.

“You fucking bastard! Do you know who we are!”

The yellow-haired guy ranted harshly.

The stranger felt like his ears were getting dirty.

I have to shut that mouth right now.

Lightly springing from the ground, he quickly narrowed the distance with Yellow Hair.

He reached out and blocked his mouth.

“Eup-!”

Puck!

The yellow hair was trying to escape.

He hit the stranger’s arm with his fists.

But it was like hitting concrete. There was no damage at all.

“You like money, right?”

Ah.

The yellow-haired guy’s eyes were wide open in fear and desperation.

Kwajik!

The stranger squeezed the man’s jaws with his hands, until he heard it crack.

“Oh, awha!”

The stranger turned when he heard the sound of something swinging behind his head.

Kwajik!

The club hit his head.

It seemed to be made of hardwood. It broke down to fragments upon impact on the back of his head.

But he did not feel anything.

[It’s good to use items.]

‘I agree.’

The three men are high level, so he came prepared.

Of course, he could have used Dokgogu, and with the Moon Moon method, he could cut them down in just one blow.

But he did not want it to end that way.

“I suffered.”

“You’re a monster!” The man with the club screamed.

“You should feel it too.”

Kwajik!

He broke the man’s legs effortlessly.

These guys are wearing pretty good items, but it’s nothing like the hero item he’s wearing.

[Did you say the name was Ogre’s Gloves?]

‘Yes.’

[Ogre’s Gloves]

[Rating: Hero]

[Ogre’s leather and tendon gloves. It is a hybrid weapon that combines human science.]

[Attack Power 581]

[Agility + 220]

[Life + 1,500]

“How many more people would you hurt if I came later?”

“Wow, why do we….”

He went past them and approached the husband and wife.

The wife, who was guarding her injured husband, trembled with fear as I walked towards them.

“Inventory.”

I took the potion out of the item window and crossed it.

“Once you heal, leave us quickly.”

“Thank you. Thank you!”

Although the husband’s injuries were severe, it was instantly cured with an advanced potion.

I watched them leave and turned to three people again.

One of them is unconscious, one has a broken jaw and the other has a broken leg.

“Do you want to know why I’m doing this?”

He approached the guys leisurely.

“Why?”

He lowered himself and matched his eye level with them.

Then, he took off his mask and hat.

“Wow, One Cut Man!”

“Of all people, why you! Why are you, the legendary skill holder, attacking us?!”

“Ha…”

Jin-woo sighed. No way. They can’t even remember their victims.

They are truly trash.

“I have to dispose of the garbage.”

“What, what… oh no!

He let his anger go.

Every time his fist went down and struck them, it felt like something was coming out of his chest.

He just wanted to beat them up and forget everything.

“Please… Spare me…”

The eyeglasses man said, with his face swollen so much that Jin-woo couldn’t remember how he looked like in the first place.

“Did you spare me?”

He remembered how he begged for mercy.

Please, spare me.

Please, spare my life.

But they ignored him, and laughed at him instead.

“Have you ever spared people who begged you for mercy?”

They never have.

They have no mercy.

Kwajik!

“Shhh!”

“Ugh… … Ugh… … .”

Blood flowed from the fist.

Most of it were their blood.

However, some of the blood was also from his own knuckles. His skin was torn through from the impact.

“Hoo…”

It’s time to end it.

“I will do the same.”

Jin-woo turned around and disappeared.

Among the three men who were unconscious, the eyeglasses man woke up first.

“That fucking bastard…”

His tears fell with every painful step he took.

His whole body hurt, but he had to endure it and get away.

He had to run away before One Cut Man came back.

Suddenly, he felt something heavy tugging his legs.

As he turned, he saw Yellow Hair was holding his pants.

“De… Wow… Uh….”

Help him?

He kicked him off.

“Fuck… … I live on my own.”

He walked away.

He had to survive…

He still had a lot to do.

“Fuck… Fuck…”

He was going to expose everything once he goes out.

“Pup… … I’m going to throw it all in the press.”

This is going to be a big scandal.

The dark side of Kang Jin-woo, the hottest player.

There will be many who would want to buy his story.

He will get rich.

This nasty Korea.

I’ll leave this country and stay in Europe.

“Huh…”

He laughed as he imagined it.

Just then, the ceiling and the ground shook.

Kururung-!

“Fuck…”

He knew what was going on.

It’s what they did to get the job done and remove the evidence.

Making the dungeon collapse.

“Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!”

He hastened his steps.

I have to get out somehow.

He could almost see the exit.

“Uh…?”

The gate was crumbling. The exit is starting to collapse.

“Ah… … .”

Blah-!

He looked up and saw cracks filling the ceiling, like a spider web.

“It’s fucked up.”

Thud-!

Quark quark!

The dungeon began to collapse.

* * *

Jin-woo turned to look at the collapsing gate.

He had Yellow Hair’s smartphone in his pocket.

Ji-ing!

His own phone rang.

It was Han Yu-ra.

“Hello.”

“Shall I take you home?”

He raised my head and looked at the driveway.

A red sports car was parked, and Han Yu-ra was leaning on it, with her arms crossed.

“Then, thank you.”

He felt exhausted. He was grateful for Yu-ra. A friend’s car is more comfortable than a taxi.

Rap-!

He sat in the passenger seat and closed the door.

She started the car silently and drove the car.

It took almost thirty minutes to get home, and there was no conversation throughout the ride.

She didn’t ask him anything, and Jin-woo did not deliberately explain.

Kiik-!

The car stopped in front of his apartment.

“Thank you.”

“Not yet,” Yu-ra said, as he tried to remove his seat belt.

Jin-woo looked at her.

“They are criminals. There is a lot of money involved and perhaps, powerful people behind them. You need to hand it over to the police.”

Jin-woo quietly listened to her and thought about it for a few minutes.

Then, he took out Yellow Hair’s smartphone and placed it on her console box.

“If you are a criminal, you should be punished properly.”

Jin-woo bowed her head to her answer and left the car.

As soon as Jin-woo entered his apartment, Yu-ra started dialing.

“I’m Han Yu-ra, I need to speak to the police.”

She works fast.
