Dohyuk learned two things . This man was the Tyrant, and the reason why he had fallen silent was because he was pondering .
"I smell coffee . "
"Yes, sir . "
"Can you get me one? Hot coffee . "
Giwon quickly moved . The Tyrant then sat on the chair Dohyuk had been sitting on and spoke again .
"Hmm? There's one more cup here . "
Dohyuk felt his heart sink .
"It's hot, and still quite full . So the visitor left in a hurry?"
Giwon did not hesitate .
"It was for him, sir . "
"This one?"
"Yes, sir . I tried to persuade him but he didn't listen, so…"
Dohyuk felt the eyes on him .
"So you knocked him out . "
"Yes . "
"That's curious . "
The Tyrant continued to add on, "What did he do to make you the most reasonable man in our organization knock him out cold?"
Dohyuk thought . Could he win with a surprise attack? There were a lot of ways to attack, but what he needed to think about was the backlash he'd receive if he failed .
"He was foolish and thought he could win . He pretended to be a dead corpse and jumped at me . "
"Oh?"
"Yes, sir . I thought he had a way to fight back, but…"
"He picked the wrong guy . "
"Yes, sir . "
It was clearly a word for Dohyuk . He was telling Dohyuk to not engage and to stay still . Before Dohyuk could think, he felt something forcefully grabbing his head . The Tyrant held him up with such ease .
"He's all beaten up . "
Dohyuk's face was crushed and covered in blood .
"Wow, you know how to fight? I thought you don't like doing this kind of stuff?"
"…People change, sir . "
"Heh, that change should've come earlier . "
He cackled and dived into his purpose .

"I need the bracelet at the canyon . "
There were no details, but Giwon knew what it meant .
It was the final piece that would complete Jung Ilgyu's 'Full Set' item . Items were better if they ranked higher, but the options it contained were also very vital . That's why many strong ones in the previous life collected various items to mix and match them to find the best combination possible .
The bracelet was critical to Ilgyu, but-
"Do you need a full set at this stage…"
"It's not necessary, but still . "
Of course, it wasn't easy to get . Hence, he was ordering Giwon to go fetch it for him .
"You know what you have to say . "
"…Yes, sir . "
"Well, I have a reason for it too actually . I'm going out to sea next week . "
"Next week? The ship…"
"It's not ready, but there's a better way . " He spoke excitedly, "I met a follower of Degova, the God of the Sea . He offered a trade . "
"…He asked for an offering . "
"Yeah . Thirty thousand people . "
Giwon fell silent . He couldn't find the words to even respond to that .
"It's it nice? It doesn't need to be pretty, or young, or strong, or anything else . Just some thirty thousand humans, thrown at the sea . "
He then turned to Dohyuk .
"Although…"
He paused for a moment .
"This one looks familiar . "
Dohyuk loosened himself . He was ready to kick at any time .

"He's still alive . "
Before Ilgyu's other hand reached Dohyuk's cheek-
"I have to ask you to think again, sir . "
Ilgyu stopped .
"Didn't I just tell you? All you have to say is 'yes' . "
"Sir, I must say this . Thirty thousand slaves are vital resources that we have to conserve . If offer that much . . "
"Then?"
"…We might face the same situation we were put in during our previous life . "
The grasp that held Dohyuk's head was loosened and he was dropped . As Dohyuk fell, he opened his eyes a crack to check on the Tyrant . He was a bit scrawny .
"Talk . "
"We are very different this time around, sir . We have been successfully getting supplies through our slaves . Our profit will only grow if we keep this up for as long as we can . "
"And?"
"…But if we waste our resources for one trip… and there is a chance for the 'north' to come while you are away-"
Dohyuk was watching, but even then, he couldn't see Ilgyu's kick, especially the sheer speed of it . Giwon was thrown at the wall like a sack of rags .
"Oh… Giwon . "
Ilgyu walked up with the boiling pot in his hand and poured it over Giwon's body .
"Oh, I like you trying hard not to scream . You were always ready to get beaten up when you did something that deserved a beating . I like that . "
"S-sir…"
"I'm not going there for a trip . I'm going to finish my business with her . Whatever the outcome, I'm not coming back to this rathole . Of course, the outcome is only simple . "
Ilgyu then grabbed Giwon with one arm .
"I'll take her as mine . I won't lose, and if I do, the entire Chinese continent will be MINE! The north? Who gives a f*ck about that place? Don't even mention them to my face again . You hear?"
"You HEAR? YOU F*CKING BASTARD?!"

With the shout, Ilgyu flung Giwon's body . In the next moment, GIwon's body was thrown at the wall in the opposite direction . He was stuck in the wall, but his arm wasn't there .
"Oops . You left your arm . "
Ilgyu was still holding onto the arm .
"Don't do something that will make you lose anything else . "
"I want to tear your other limbs off too, but you're useful . "
Giwon couldn't answer . All of his bones had been crushed .
"Are you okay? I mean I'm sure you still have some potions that you kept for yourself, right? I'm not sure if you can get your arm back . . but I think you were a lefty . "
"…ah . . "
"I can't hear you . "
Ilgyu stepped on Giwon's neck .
"UGGH-"
"You have one thing to do . I will give you one day . Go get the bracelet . Then…" Ilgyu added, "I will let your mother and sister live . "
"You didn't expect that? Did you really believe I killed them when you weren't watching?"
Giwon's eyes shook . The Tyrant smiled satisfyingly .
"No . Oh, no way . I was going to kill them in front of your eyes when you were no longer useful, but I think there's a better way to use them!"
"I'll give you the mercy that you like so much . Bring me the bracelet in time and they won't be thrown out into the sea . "
But even if he did successfully bring that, they would meet the same fate . That was what Jung Ilgyu did most of the time . Giwon had no choice . His eyes turned into that of a man who had given up hope .
"Good . "
He smiled, but he was too late to realize it .
"This is the best face I've seen from you…"
The face and the eyes weren't like that because of him . The Tyrant looked back . Dohyuk was already on him with the kick that had sliced off many heads .Please download our sponsor's game to support us!
