Chapter 46
Chapter 46 : Kwak-jung is dead?“Old man, I’ll give you the liquid for the Talking Tree within two months . We’ll talk in more detail later . ”
Kang Chul-in stood up .
“W-where are you going?”
“I have something that I need to do . ”
“Hmm… okay . Well, I’ll start getting prepared for that . ”
“I’m leaving now . ”
“Wait!”
Old man kwon grabbed Kang Chul-in .
“Let me go, I’m busy . ”
Kang Chul-in coldly snapped out, and pushed Old man Kwon’s arm off of him .
“Your car!”
“Ah…”
“The Jaguar you asked for is still coming here…”
“Give me a car key, anything is fine . ”
“Then use this . ”
Since Kang Chul-in was in a hurry, Old man Kwon handed his own car key over to him .
“A porsche?”
“Yep, the best there is . ”
“… This old guy…”
Startled, Kang Chul-in started mumbling to himself .
“Age doesn’t matter . To a man, his car, suit, and watch is key . ”
“…… . ”
“Well then, you should get going . I will put your new house’s location on your phone, so put it there later . I’ll also put the Mustang and Jaguar . Also, is this truly enough to show my sincerity for you?”
“It’s definitely enough . Thanks, old man . “
Kang Chul-in said something that was truly rare coming from him, he thanked someone .
Old man Kwon was right, a car was really something important to a man . He knew what it meant, lending a car key over to someone else . At least, Kang Chul-in did .
“I’m leaving . ”
Kang Chul-in hurriedly left Old man Kwon’s office .
And… 1 hour later, Old man Kwon felt his strength from his prime coming back, and reminisced of his glorious past .
After eating the meat from the Peacock Dragon, he felt as if he got at least 10 years younger .
“Kukuku, I might even get another child from this . Hahahaha . ”
Old man Kwon’s opinion of Kang Chul-in rose even more .
Startlingly, Old man Kwon’s car was a Porsche 911 boxster, and was even a convertible . For a man that was 80 years old, he truly had some good tastes .
‘VROOM’
Kang Chul-in immediately started heading towards Park Doo-sik’s office .
Although feeling the F6 engine was something someone wouldn’t be able to experience often, he had no time to feel the enjoyment .
“Kwak-jung . ”
Kang Chul-in read the message that Doo-sik left for him . This is what it said:Park Doo-sik: Big boss, I think I’ve found him, but something’s off . If you read the message, please contact me as soon as possible .
Although he felt anxious when it said something was off, he started off immediately when he heard that they had found a lead .
‘BOOM!’
As soon as Kang Chul-in arrived at Doo-sik’s office, he broke the door open . It wasn’t intentional, but the door broke due to his immense strenght .
“W-what?”
“Get your weapons out!”
“Big boss, big boss!”
Doo-Sik’s underlings took out their weapons and got ready to fight .
“……?”
Kang Chul-in was very fascinating to look at right now . He thought that they were overreacting for just a broken door .
“You crazy bastards! Aren’t you going to put the weapons away immediately? Huh?”
Doo-sik hurriedly came out and stopped his underlings from doing something stupid .
“Sorry, I’m truly sorry, big boss . They’re nervous recently because the situation for us isn’t very good right now . Hey, you bastards! What are you doing? Apologize quickly!”
After recognizing that it was Kang Chul-in, some of the gangster’s faces turned pale, and did a 90 degree bow .
“I’m sorry, big boss!”
“Please forgive me!”
Although Kang Chul-in face turned stiff because of the gangsters, it wasn’t really a problem . He had no time to dwell on this matter .
“I’m truly sorry . ”
Doo-sik apologized again .
“Something had happened to our people in Incheon, because of a guy called Black Leopard . Ai, he really is like a ghost . We can’t catch him . ”
Sighing, Kang Chul-in stated: “It truly is difficult trying to eat and stay alive now . ”
Pangaea was in a war, Old man Kwon was in a war, and even these gangsters were fighting a war to feed themselves and keep themselves alive . magic
“Anyway, what did you mean by you think you’ve found him?”
Kang Chul-in directly asked .
“Th-The thing is… . Well, I think it’s better if you sit down first…”
Doo-sik’s forehead was covered in cold sweat . It seemed like he was afraid of getting beaten up again .
“Just say it . Did you manage to find him?”Old man Kwon was truly a giant in the underworld business . Someone like Doo-sik wouldn’t have a chance to even see his face one .
“I have a business relationship with that old man . There will be a period in time where he will need some manpower . At that time, I’ll introduce you to him . How long are you going to be able to feed yourself fistfighting?”
“T-Thank you sir!”
“No, I’m only doing this because I was impressed by you . Keep up the hard work . ”
“Thank you, thank you, big boss!”
“I’m leaving now . I’ll be back in a month . ”
“Yes, sir! Have a safe…”
It was at this moment .
When Doo-sik was about to do another 90 degree bow to Kang Chul-in, a man suddenly appeared in the office .
“AH!”
“Black Leopard, you bastard!”
As luck would have it, Black Leopard came in coincidentally at this moment .
“Where the hell do you think you are?” is what one of Doo-sik’s underlings said before…
‘POW!’
… and he fell to the ground, screaming in pain .
“Oh?”
Looking at this, Kang Chul-in’s eyes gleamed with interest . This Black Leopard truly had some skill . Although it was just one punch, Kang Chul-in’s eyes were sharp .
“You’re Park Doo-sik?”
Black Leopard, who seemed around 30, looked at Doo-sik, smirking and smoking his cigar .
How could he look so annoying, although it was a handsome looking face, anyone looking at him would want to beat him up . He truly was not a normal type of human .
“And who the hell are you?”
Black Leopard looked at Kang Chul-in and said .
“Hey Black Leopard . If you touch him, you might as well prepare your funeral . We should talk amongst ourselves . ” Doo-sik stated .
“Oh, so this guy’s the boss of the gang? I thought that the boss of Isu (area name) was you, Park Doo-sik . ”
“Shut the hell up, you bastard!”
Doo-sik went back to looking intimidating like a gangster, and ran towards Black Leopard with a sinister expression on his face .
“Hmm, that won’t work . ”
Kang Chul-in predicted the outcome of this battle .
“Argh!!!”
As expected, Doo-sik clutched his face in pain from the punch of Black Leopard .
“B-boss!”
“You want a taste of this too?”
“You crazy bastard!”
Looking at their fallen boss, the gangsters of Isu started piling on Black Leopard, wanting to beat him up .
“Still not enough . ”
Kang Chul-in predicted that this still wouldn’t be enough to defeat him .
Fighting a battle with multiple members in a small area wouldn’t benefit the gangsters . Not only that, Black Leopard was not a normal fighter .
Footwork, smoothly flowing martial arts, as well as a kick at a decisive moment . Instead of a gangster, Black Leopard resembled a boxing, judo, kickboxing MMA player .
“You f*cker!”
Finally, one of Doo-sik’s underlings took out a knife, no longer able to handle the humiliation .
“Hey, hey . ”
Even though there was a sharp knife in front of him, Black Leopard didn’t lose his calm and confidence .
“Using a weapon?”
Out of Black Leopard’s hands came out a blackish mist . Surprisingly, Black Leopard wasn’t a normal civilian, but someone who knew how to use mana .
“Hmm, an adventurer . ”
Kang Chul-in looked at this scene in interest .
“You’re so f*cked now . ”
Using mana, Black Leopard started beat up the gangster who took out the knife . It seemed like his specialty was Muay-Thai (a type of martial art) .
POW!
PAPOW!
With some satisfying noises…
“ARGH!!!”
“WH-WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO ME! ARGHHH!!”
“M-MY ARM!!!”
Like leaves, Doo-sik’s underlings fell down . It wasn’t even 5 minutes . This was the difference between a civilian and a mana user .
“Huuu…”
Smoke filled the office . Black Leopard didn’t even stop smoking in the midst of the fight .
“After fighting the guys at Isu, should I take Gangnam (another area), or hmm… Yeongdeungpo
doesn’t seem bad either…” Black Leopard mumbled to himself .
It was as if he thought it was a game of hopscotch, where he could take the territory of opponents for fun .
“Oi . ”
Walking in front of Kang Chul-in now, Black Leopard started staring at him, and spoke .
“Who the hell are you to stand in front of me so arrogantly?”
With a ‘Tshhh’, the cigar smeared all over the table that Kang Chul-in was sitting in front of .
“Did you say it was Black Leopard? You’re not bad . ”
Smirking, Kang Chul-in complimented him .
“Black Leopard? Sigh . Who the hell gave me this kind of stupid nickname? I have a proper name that’s the letters long too (Korean names are typically 3 letters long . Mine is Cho Young-woo . ) Oh wait, it’s actually two letters . ”
Saying this, Black Leopard took out a new cigarette and lit it up .
“Huuu, my name is Kwak-jung, not some cheesy and childish name like ‘Black Leopard . ’”
