Chapter 116: Anna 3

Translator: - - Editor: - -

Anna was using a sword that looked like a drill, and she blocked the Frozen Rune Sword with it, but the drill-like sword bounced away. She felt like she was about to lose her hand, and Junhyuk was stronger than she had expected.

Anna tried to retreat quickly, but Junhyuk was faster. He swung the Blood Rune Sword down at her, and Anna held her sword with both hands, lifting it to block the strike.

Clung!

The clash forced her to her knees, and Anna realized she could die at any moment, so she used her hidden skill.

"Shockwaves!"

At that moment, her armor generated shockwaves that travelled in all directions from it. It happened suddenly, and Junhyuk was pushed back by the shock. Just before he hit a wall, he teleported. Anna was relieved and resting when Junhyuk appeared by her and grabbed her neck.

Boom!

He slammed her against the ground and aimed the point of the Blood Rune Sword at her neck, but Anna stabbed him in the ribs with her sword. He felt the shock from the stab and frowned. It had penetrated Junhyuk's defense, so its piercing stats had to be very high.

Junhyuk grabbed her wrist and pulled the sword out from his ribs. He was bleeding heavily through his ribs, but he ignores it. He let go of her wrist and stabbed her shoulder with the Blood Rune Swords.

Her armor had high defense, but his attack stats were higher, so the Blood Rune Sword went through, piercing her armor and her shoulder.

"Aaargh!"

She started screaming, and he grabbed her neck and slammed her against the ground again. He could feel his wound healing fast. He had been seriously wounded, but the Blood Rune Sword was taking care of it.

Junhyuk looked at Anna.

"Who do you work for?"

She didn't look at him and bit her own lips slightly. Anna wasn't answering, and he twisted the sword stuck to her shoulder.

"AAAAHHHH!"

Junhyuk ignored the screaming and slowly pushed the Blood Rune Sword farther in. He could feel her bone breaking, and Anna's jaw slacked, her mouth agape.

With a loud noise, her door broke down, and two agents holding pistols came into the room. Anna had already returned her armor and was screaming while Junhyuk turned to look at the agents.

"Save me!"

The two agents shot at him without hesitation.

Bang, bang, bang!

Junhyuk ignored the bullets bouncing off of him and looked at Anna.

A man was standing behind the agents, she extended her hand toward him.

"Daddy! Help me!"

Junhyuk's mind was shaken. He didn't want to kill her in front of her father, so he pulled the sword out.

"Argh!"

He held her neck and turned his head. Her father, Stephen, was shouting, "What do you want? I'll give you anything, just don't hurt my child."

Junhyuk didn't answer him and teleported. They appeared on the roof of the house, and still keeping a hold of her neck, he asked, "Who do you work for?"

She had changed. Just before, she had been willing to fight him, but she couldn't deal with him effectively. She no longer used her power, and Junhyuk's teleport made her understand his power.

She had attacked, but Junhyuk simply ignored it. She had considered her power as a novice and thought she could finish him with one blow, but Junhyuk's strength was beyond her imagination, and he wasn't even bleeding.

Anna thought things over while Junhyuk tightened his grip around her neck. She couldn't breathe and shouted, "I'm a mercenary!"

She screamed, and he made sure he didn't look into her eyes.

"Who is your client, and why did you kill Jisuk Dong and the Schterron's mercenaries?" he asked, keeping a hold of her neck.

"Prince Al Jar asked me to kill Jisuk, and Schterron's President, Jonas, asked me to kill the mercenaries."

"So you got paid to kill?"

Anna wasn't answering him, and Junhyuk smiled coldly.

"You don't value human lives."

Anna finally understood him.

"If you value human lives, let me live!" she said.

"You know the value of your own life, so you should value theirs as well."

Junhyuk raised the Blood Rune Sword.

"I'll keep an eye on you. If you use your power to kill again, I'll be back for another visit."

Anna sighed, relieved. Then, she saw the blood-colored blade in front of her, and the world turned black. She screamed in pain.

"AAAAHHHH!"

Junhyuk had sliced through both of her eyes and threw her off the roof. She was a novice and she wouldn't die from the fall. She fell screaming, and people gathered around her when she landed. Meanwhile, Junhyuk headed to the opposite side.

His teleportation's cooldown was over, so he used it to leave the residence. He moved quickly and sent his equipment away. The wound in his ribs had healed, but it left a blood stain on his clothes. He couldn't walk around like that, so he took off his shirt and complained, "I need more storage."

If he had storage he could carry extra clothes. He was only wearing a dark coat to hide the rest of the blood now.

Junhyuk went into a public restroom. There was no one there, and he quickly washed his clothes. He got rid of the blood stain, put his shirt back on and headed toward the subway station nearby.

He thought about buying new clothes, but he didn't want to draw people's attention. The last train arrived at the station, and he kept his head down all the way home.

When he got home, he threw himself on his bed. His injuries from the shockwaves and the drill sword had already all healed, and Junhyuk looked at his hand and frowned. Stabbing someone in reality had a different feeling than doing it at the Dimensional Battlefield. He felt rotten.

He grabbed a cold beer from the refrigerator and lay on his bed. His burner phone rang and he picked it up, hearing Sarang on the other end.

"Big Brother, what's up?"

"I'm lying in bed. Why aren't you sleeping?"

"I'm a senior. I can't sleep. I sleep five hours per day to study."

Junhyuk laughed. He had experienced high school himself. He used to think he was the center of the universe and would get irritated easily. Thinking about it, high school was a gateway to the future. Society wasn't forgiving, and harder obstacles lay ahead, beyond high school. He could picture Sarang complaining about it.

"I was just training. I just wanted to call you."

Junhyuk decided to tell her about what had happened that night. He only had Sarang on his side.

"Today, I fought against another novice."

"Are you OK?"

Sarang was worried about him, and Junhyuk smiled.

"I'm fine. I'm an expert."

"You could've gotten killed."

Novices weren't something to be ignored. Their average strength wasn't hard to deal with, but novices had powers, and one of those could end up killing him. If Anna had used her hypnosis, he would've been dead.

"For this opponent, as long as you don't look into her eyes, you'll win."

"So, what did you do?"

"I made sure she wouldn't use her hypnosis again."

"Did you kill her?"

"No, I made sure she wouldn't use her eyes again."

Sarang was silent for a moment, and then she said, "She can repair that if she goes back to the Dimensional Battlefield."

"Yes, but I seared myself in her mind. If she does anything funny, I'll kill her then."

Sarang didn't have an answer for him. She had been to the Dimensional Battlefield, and her feelings were numbed.

"Her armor was something else! I could compare it to yours. It had a shockwave skill that pushed the enemy back," he said.

"She must have a lot of money."

Junhyuk didn't mention Anna's weapons. The drill sword had pierced his armor, and it was something Bebe might sell in his store.

"Next time, tell me more about her. It sounds like she is someone I have to be careful with."

"Yes, will do."

"I'm going to sleep now. I'll call you."

"Right, go to sleep."

Junhyuk hung up and looked at his phone. Using his burner phone, he could talk to her anytime he wanted to.

He slowly closed his eyes. He didn't have to report to work for a few days, so he would train instead.

---

Junhyuk woke up with his phone ringing. Iltae was calling him.

He wanted him to go to the W.A.N.C.S. lab immediately. Junhyuk knew it was because of Anna, but he pretended he didn't know anything and went.

He hadn't returned his ID card and was able to go in unimpeded. At Iltae's office, he saw Iltae and Jaeyoung waiting. They looked serious.

"What is the matter?"

Junhyuk spoke first, and Iltae leaned back on the sofa and answered, "Anna, our suspect, was attacked."

"Attacked?"

"Someone broke into her diplomatic residence, and she lost her eyes and almost lost her right arm."

Junhyuk sat on chair and said, "It must be someone who knows about her power."

"Correct."

Iltae looked at Jaeyoung.

"You didn't do it, did you?"

"No, I didn't."

Iltae looked at Junhyuk, and he stared back. Iltae sighed.

"It happened before I had the chance to talk to my superiors. We will keep an eye on the situation."

Junhyuk nodded.

"Why did you call for me?'

Iltae shrugged.

"I knew you'd be curious. You almost lost your life because of her!"

"I don't want to get involved. I know how dangerous she is."

"Is that so? OK."

Iltae waved his hand.

"You may leave."

Junhyuk bowed, and Jaeyoung walked after him.

"Junhyuk."

He turned around, and Jaeyoung asked him, "Where were you last night, between eleven and twelve?

"I was sleeping at home. Why do you ask?"

"Nothing."

Jynhyuk left, and Iltae walked out of his office and said to Jaeyoung, "You are suspicious of him."

"It does look funny."

Jaeyoung's eyes were fixed on Junhyuk, who is still waiting for an elevator.
