I’m not a Regressor

s he had killed the other man in an ambush before he got the opportunity to see his ability.

‘Now that I’ve seen his ability, I should stop the taunting here.’

Skrtttttt!— 

He suddenly braked into a stop after arriving in an empty lot with no human traces.

Twirl— 

He simultaneously thrusted out his spear while turning his body.

“Hupf!”

Ka-kang!!— 

The man chasing after him quickly crossed his arms and blocked the spear.

The spear bounced off of the black feathers sprouting from his forearms.

“Oh, damn.
It’s harder than I thought.” He didn’t expect feathers to deflect a spear.

“You dare…!”

“Why are you staring at me with such burning eyes on our first meeting? You’re making me blush.”

“Your arrogance ends here!”

“Is that right?” he fixed his grip on his spear while shrugging his shoulders.

Activating the stigma of the Hunting Dogs, he observed the surroundings.
He couldn’t feel the presence of other Black Star Organization members.

“But old man, will you be okay alone?”

“Hmpf, aren’t you also alone?” The man with his forearms covered in black feathers smirked in ridicule and took his stance.

“Huh? But I’m not alone?”

“…What?”

“Now!! Attack him!!!” he screamed out with a loud voice.

“Kugh! D-Damn it!!” The man turned his body around with a panicked expression.

The scene that unfolded in his eyes— 

“Huh?”

—was a completely vacant lot.

“What?”

“Sike.”

Crackleeeeee!!!!— 

Blue Lightning blazed up.

‘Blue Lightning.’

The lightning formed at the tip of the spear and spread forwards in a fan shape.

“Ahhhhhhhh!!!”

Was it because the arm covered in black feathers couldn’t defend against lightning? A horrific scream exploded out of the man’s mouth.

Stumble, stumble— 

Taking a step back, the man’s stance broke down.

“Ch-hat!!” Ohjin stabbed out his spear towards the gap between the man’s arms.

“Kugh, uaaaah!!”

With the will to not get done in easily, the man quickly fixed his broken stance and grasped the spear’s blade with his hand covered in feathers.

“You dare use this crude trickery…!!”

Although Blue Lightning blazed from the spear’s tip, the man ignored it and pulled on the spear.

He tried to take the spear out by twisting the spear’s shaft, but the spear in the man’s grasp wouldn’t come out easily.

‘Is he stronger?’

It didn’t matter.

—Since strength alone didn’t decide the winner of a fight.

“Aren’t you falling for them too easily if you consider them crude?”

Keke— 

Laughing out, he let go of his grasp on the spear’s shaft.

“U-Uhh?”

As Ohjin had suddenly let go of the spear, the man’s body overcompensated and fell over.

Bang!— 

Roughly stomping his feet, Ohjin jumped forwards.

He struck down his clenched fist towards the head of the stumbling man.

‘Thunder Fall.’

Crackleee!!— 

Like striking down a hammer, he struck down his fist with all his strength.

“Kugh! Kuk!”

Flop— 

The man twisted his body as he fell down.

Ohjin quickly grabbed the spear that had fallen on the ground and aimed it towards the man’s neck.

“Kugk!” The man nibbled on his lips out of frustration, staring down the tip of the spear.

“Don’t… think that you’ve won from this.”

“But I did.”

Although the fight was more difficult than he had thought it was going to be, the one who had come up victorious in the end was Ohjin.

“Ha! Did you think that you would be able to escape out of the Black Star Organization’s grasp with my death alone?”

The man puffed his nose like he had heard the ridiculous.

“If you thought that you would be left in one piece after messing with Sir Yujin, you’re very mistaken!”

Kekeke!— 

The man suddenly exploded out into laughter.

“You… will never be able to win against that person.”

“Mhm, I already know.”

Even though he didn’t know how strong of an Awakener Yujin was, he was at least sure of the fact that Yujin wasn’t an opponent he could face.

However, it didn’t matter— 

“You are all going to die soon anyways.”

“…With what confidence are you saying such gibberish?” The man asked with a gaze full of doubt.

Smirk— 

Shrugging his shoulders, Ohjin answered.

“I’m going to unleash the hounds.”

“…Hounds?”

“There’s something like that, you rascal.”

‘Unnecessary talk is a waste of time; I should finish this up.’

Splash!!— 

“Kugk! Kugh…k.”

Blood sprayed out like a fountain when Ohjin’s spear pierced the man’s neck.

“Well then.”

Ohjin rummaged through the man’s clothes and took out his smartphone.

As iris recognition was in place as security, he opened the dead man’s eyelids to unlock the smartphone.

‘Although I want to absorb his stigma…’

As he didn’t know if it would cause a commotion, he decided to finish things up first.

“Hpft.” He carried the corpse out of the empty lot.

Using Black Curtain to completely erase his presence, he went up a nearby mountain.

About when the presence of people couldn’t be felt any longer— 

“Let’s see… right… here will be nice.”

Snap— 

Leaning the bloody spear next to a nearby tree, he started to take photos.

“So this is the last time I’ll use this spear.”

Since he was thinking of changing his weapon soon anyways, he didn’t think it was too much of a waste.

“Khm! Ah, ah, ah.” Slightly raising his chin, he adjusted his voice.

As he already had a lot of confidence in mimicking other people’s voices, he could change it with quite a bit of ease.

Bzzzzzt— 

He called the contact he received from Team leader Han.

[This is the Valhalla guild, Kim Sunyoung speaking.]

A woman’s voice that sounded somewhat full of exhaustion.

It was a voice that remained in his memories.

‘Is this the girl with the glasses back then?’

He recalled the memories he inherited from Lee Shinhyuk.

“Could you put the guild leader on call?”

[The guild leader cannot take the phone right—]

“I’ve found Lee Shinhyuk.”

[…What?]

A short silence.

[W-Wait a moment!]

Ba-Bang!— 

The sound of unsettling noises echoed.

And then— 

[…You’ve found my brother?]

—a coldly sunken voice.

It was the first time hearing Lee Woohyuk’s voice not from Lee Shinhyuk’s memories but in real life.

Well then.

It was time to unleash— 

“To be exact, we have taken hold of him.”

[…What?]

“Hahaha.
Did you not understand?”

—the fierce and violent hounds.

“I’m saying that we’ve taken hold of Lee Shinhyuk.”

[What nonsense are you speaking of.]

“Nonsense? Hmm.
Then I guess I’ll have to send this photo as evidence.”

[This photo is…]

“Aren’t you familiar with this spear?”

‘The hounds that would rip apart the opponent’s neck and kill them in my place.’

[—You, who are you.]

“Hahaha!! It seems that you believe me now!”

[I asked who you were, you bastard!!!!]

‘The hound’s name… that’s right.’

‘Let’s simply call it—’ 

 

“The name’s— Yujin.”

 

‘—Lee Woohyuk.’
