“Fufu. How does it feel to be kidnapped?”
To an outsider, Seong Yura’s smile might have appeared beautiful, but to Jin Soyeon, it was an utterly unpleasant grin, causing her to frown deeply.
The absurdity of Seong Yura asking how it felt to be forcibly kidnapped left Jin Soyeon at a loss for words.
Is Seong Yura out of her mind?
What is she even saying?
‘Seong Yura, what the hell… Why would she do something like kidnapping?’
For Seong Yura to have Jin Soyeon forcibly abducted by people with the strength of active heroes was no ordinary matter.
Why on earth would Seong Yura go so far as to kidnap Jin Soyeon?
Does she hold some kind of grudge?
“Seong Yura, what are you thinking? Why did you kidnap me…?”
“A reason? Hmm…”
Seong Yura tilted her head, tapping her lips with her index finger as if in thought.
After a brief moment of contemplation, Seong Yura’s lips curled into a deep smile, and she spoke in a tone that caught Jin Soyeon completely off guard.
“Because of your childhood friend and ex-boyfriend?”
“What?”
What nonsense is this about her being kidnapped because of Lee Jinhyuk?
“Jinhyuk?”
“That’s right. Your ex-boyfriend gave me a hard time, so I’m taking revenge.”
Gave her a hard time?
Revenge?
What could have possibly happened between the two of them?
Although Jin Soyeon had no idea what had transpired, one thing was certain—kidnapping and confinement were serious crimes.
For Seong Yura, a student at Korea’s top hero training academy, to commit such acts simply because of a personal grudge seemed unbelievable.
First, she needed to calm Seong Yura down and figure out what had happened between them.
T h i s wa s c op i ed f ro m k i n g m t l . o r g
So that Seong Yura wouldn’t continue down this dark path.
“Listen, Seong Yura. I don’t know what happened between you and Jinhyuk, but I can help. So, please stop doing things like this. Kidnapping is a serious…”
“Why? Because it’s a serious crime? Well, that’s a shame.”
Seong Yura chuckled mockingly, as if finding the situation amusing.
T h is w a s cop i e d f r o m k i n g m tl . o rg
“You see, I’m a villain who commits crimes as easily as breathing. Something like kidnapping is no big deal.”
“A villain?”
Jin Soyeon’s eyes widened in shock.
Seong Yura, a student at Union Academy, a villain?
Under normal circumstances, she would have dismissed it as ridiculous nonsense, but given that she had already been kidnapped, she couldn’t afford to be optimistic.
If Seong Yura said she was a villain, she was probably telling the truth.
A villain… If she’s really a villain…
“……”
A memory suddenly flashed through Jin Soyeon’s mind.
The memory of almost dying during the recent midterms because of a villain attack surfaced vividly.
Four unidentified villains had launched an assault, causing the security personnel and trainees to be slaughtered, their blood splattering everywhere.
Although Jin Soyeon had barely held on, her injuries were so severe that it wouldn’t have been surprising if she had collapsed at any moment.
If Lee Jinhyuk and his group had arrived even a little later, she might have died.
The terrifying and horrifying memory overwhelmed her.
But Jin Soyeon gritted her teeth and endured.
Trembling in fear like a fool wasn’t her style. And she couldn’t just keep shaking until Lee Jinhyuk comforted her like with the Black-Handed Long-Armed Monkey incident.
Jin Soyeon was a hero-in-training, a hero-in-training!
She didn’t want to show any weakness in front of a villain.
T h i s w a s c o p ie d fr o m ki n g m t l. o r g
So, she stared at Seong Yura with an even fiercer gaze. Seong Yura seemed to like that attitude, shrugging her shoulders before casually speaking again.
“Do you want to know something interesting?”
“……”
“The recent Union attack incident… I was actually involved.”
“…What?”
Seong Yura smirked and patted Jin Soyeon’s shoulder a couple of times.
“The villains you fought against, they were my subordinates. You actually fought pretty well, considering you’re ranked 257th among the freshmen.”
“Seong Yura, you…!”
Was Seong Yura really involved in that incident?
In that terrible massacre?
Jin Soyeon shouted her name and struggled in her restraints.
If she hadn’t been tied up, she would have lunged at Seong Yura immediately.
“Seong Yura! Do you have any idea how many people were hurt because of you?! It’s a miracle no one died, but it wouldn’t have been surprising if someone had!”
“Yeah, I know. Honestly, it’s a bit disappointing. I thought at least a few people would die, but no one did.”
“How can you say that?!”
Jin Soyeon was genuinely outraged.
Even though she had maintained a somewhat indifferent attitude despite being kidnapped, the thought of so many people bleeding because of Seong Yura was unbearable.
She was far more sensitive to others getting hurt than to herself.
Moreover, the Union attack incident had been an extremely serious situation.
It was a miracle that no one had died.
“Jin Soyeon, don’t shout too much. I might make a mistake.”
“……”
Seong Yura smiled and slowly lifted a sword.
It was the unnamed, sharp sword that Lee Jinhyuk had given her as a gift last night. Seong Yura extended the sword toward Jin Soyeon’s neck. As the sharp edge touched her skin, a stream of bright red blood trickled down.
The cold sensation of the blade posed a threat to Jin Soyeon. If Seong Yura felt even slightly provoked, she could end Jin Soyeon’s life right then and there.
But Jin Soyeon, despite the blood dripping from her neck, merely stared at Seong Yura with calm eyes.
She refused to be frightened anymore.
Not by some petty villain.
“I like that look.”
Ah, that look, it’s great.
Seong Yura’s inner smile grew deeper.
Even in a situation where she might be stabbed at any moment, that fierce gaze and attitude were truly appealing. It made Seong Yura want to force Jin Soyeon to beg for her life, groveling and pleading.
“If you keep looking at me like that, I might move my hand without realizing it.”
“Go ahead.”
“Hmm?”
“If you want to stab me, then stab me, Seong Yura.”
Even with a blade pressed against her neck and blood dripping down, Jin Soyeon didn’t flinch, boldly challenging Seong Yura to do it, causing Seong Yura to tilt her head slightly.
Hmm.
Judging by her gaze, it didn’t seem like she was just being stubborn out of pride…
Could it be that she really thinks I won’t stab her because she’s a hostage? If that’s the case, you’re mistaken, Jin Soyeon. Whether you’re a hostage or not, I can hurt you anytime.
“Jin Soyeon. Do you think I can’t…”
“You’re planning to kill me anyway.”
“Huh?”
“I know you’re not going to let me live after seeing your face. So stop with the petty games and just kill me if that’s what you want.”
T h i s w a s c o p ied f r o m k i n gmtl. o r g
She’s quite bold.
Despite not having much experience in situations like this, her attitude was remarkably composed.
What should I say? It would be more fun if she were trembling like a leaf and terrified. But this girl doesn’t show any sign of fear.
Even an adult man would be gulping nervously and cautiously watching Seong Yura in a situation like this.
But Jin Soyeon’s gaze was as calm as a still lake.
Is this just a bluff?
It could be mere bravado, but Jin Soyeon’s unwavering eyes were fixed intently on Seong Yura’s face.
This is intriguing.
Because I’ve seen that look before.
A brilliant and steadfast gaze that never falters, no matter the situation.
It’s the kind of resolve that refuses to submit, no matter the pain and adversity.
Is that it? You’d rather break than bend, Jin Soyeon?
If that’s the case, it only makes me want to break you more, Jin Soyeon.
‘Well, well.’
Seong Yura chuckled inwardly.
Ah, back in the day, there were plenty of fools who tried to hold onto their beliefs and pride, not knowing their place.
T his w a s co p i e d f r o m k in gm t l . o r g
They’d say things like, ‘I won’t bow to villains,’ or ‘Do whatever you want, I’ve already made peace with it,’ or ‘I’ll never forgive you,’ or ‘I’m used to this kind of thing’…
They’d spew all sorts of nonsense, but a little bit of torture would make them cry and wail like babies.
It was truly pathetic.
But Jin Soyeon, you’re different from those fakes.
Because I’ve seen those eyes of yours before.
‘Those eyes… Yes, those eyes remind me of Roxanne.’
That resolute and dignified gaze.
It reminded Seong Yura of Roxanne’s eyes, which had faced countless trials and adversities with unwavering determination, so much so that she couldn’t help but feel a sense of thrill.
‘Fufu. You’re more entertaining than I expected. You’ll keep me occupied until Lee Jinhyuk arrives.’
Seong Yura chuckled and pulled the sword back.
“Kill you? Why would I say something so harsh, Jin Soyeon? I wouldn’t treat a guest who’s been invited to my home so rudely.”
T h i s w a s copie d f r om k i n g m t l . o r g
“So, you’re inviting people by force now?”
“I was worried you might refuse, so I invited you anyway.”
Seong Yura casually twirled the sword a couple of times.
The blood on the blade splattered into the air.
“It’s a good sword, isn’t it?”
The way the blade sliced through the air was exquisite.
Despite its plain design, it was clearly a masterful weapon.
“Jin Soyeon, did you know? Your ex-boyfriend used this sword to kill many villains.”
“What nonsense are you spouting now?”
Th is w a s co pi e d f r o m k i ng mt l . o r g
Lee Jinhyuk killed villains?
What kind of ridiculous claim is that?
Lee Jinhyuk is just a trainee at the Academy.
He’s had few encounters with villains, and he doesn’t have the ability to defeat them.
His practical combat scores are among the lowest, the lowest. There’s no way Lee Jinhyuk could take down villains.
Th i s w a s c op ied f r o m k i ngm tl. o r g
“Stop spouting nonsense, Seong Yura.”
“Ah~ you really don’t know anything, do you? And to think you two have been childhood friends for over ten years.”
“What do you mean I don’t know?”
“Well? How about I leave that as a little surprise for when you reunite with your childhood friend? I have a feeling he’ll be here soon.”
Seong Yura glanced at the time.
It was almost time for their meeting.
Lee Jinhyuk should be arriving at the abandoned building in Gyeonggi Province by now, right? Unfortunately for him, the location I gave him was a trap. Waiting there for him were countless traps and Seong Yura’s subordinates.
Even if he were the infamous Vigilante from the underworld, it would be impossible for him to take on so many people alone.
Moreover, I anticipated that he wouldn’t come alone, so I had deployed ample forces.
T h is was co pi ed f r om k i n gm t l .o r g
I had even placed one of my strongest subordinates, Beom Taegyung, in charge.
Beom Taegyung was Seong Yura’s left hand and a powerful individual close to the highest rank.
Although he had retired due to an injury and was far from his prime, he was still formidable enough that even most heroes wouldn’t dare challenge him.
No matter who Lee Jinhyuk brought, Beom Taegyung and the deployed forces would be more than capable of handling them.
And not to mention, we have Jin Soyeon as a hostage here, right?
If the situation turns against us, we can just use the hostage to threaten Lee Jinhyuk.
Then I can make Jin Soyeon watch as Lee Jinhyuk is brutally defeated, turning her face into one of despair… Huh?
-Brrring.
“Has he finally arrived?”
It seemed like one of her subordinates was contacting her.
Seong Yura wondered whether Lee Jinhyuk had shown up alone or with others as she answered the call.
But the caller ID showed that it was from the mansion’s security team.
Why were they calling all of a sudden?
“What’s going on?”
“…In-Intruder! A man, presumed to be the Vigilante, has broken into the mansion!”
Huh…?
