I Woke Up as the Villain

Chapter 87

At first, Choi Byung-Chan did not seem to be able to get the picture right away. He snapped, "Hey, Rachel or something, what kind of whore are you to interrupt my work? Get out, how dare you barge in here.”

Perhaps it was because he was pulled in too many directions, such as vigilance against Choi Yu-Seong, anger from getting hit by Do-Yoon, and the prolonged disturbance and escalation of this altercation. However, his anger did not last for very long.

Without saying anything, Rachel looked at the cursing Choi Byung-Chan. She was, in fact, expressionless.

Around that time, Byung-Chan noticed the change of the vibe. He frowned and questioned, "Wait, Rachel? That villain, the Slaughter Queen?"

However, it was too late when Byung-Chan finally realized.

‘No matter how pissed off he is, he absolutely has an impaired judgment.’

It was not for no reason that Choi Woo-Jae did not delegate much to Choi Byung-Chan and had let him fit in with the back alley organization. Choi Byung-Chan was slow-witted, and had a small mind. His natural sense of battle was not bad, but it was impossible for him to lead a large company such as Comet group with only that quality.

It was a rather hopeless situation for Choi Yu-Seong.

'Even though I don’t feel like doing so, there’s no way for us to get away from Rachel together.’?

Choi Byung-Chan had long crossed the line. It was only a small consolation that Rachel simply looked at him in silence. He cursed, “...Damn it.”

He belatedly noticed the madness in Rachel’s eyes and slightly stepped back.

"Are you done barking?" Rachel finally asked with a big smile.

"What…?"

"I get so bored when a barking dog gets quiet," Rachel said. At the same time, her ax flew forward.

Choi Byung-Chan freaked out, leaned to the side, and folded his waist to avoid the flying ax which cut the tip of his nose.

‘As expected, he has a good sense of battle.’

However, the opponent was too strong. Rachel was already right in front of Choi Byung-Chan. She grabbed him by the collar with one hand and lifted him. Then, she held her one-handed ax which returned, and struck it vertically… The sound of torn flesh and broken bones echoed eerily.

With wide open eyes, Choi Byung-Chan screamed, "Ahhhhhhhh-!"

Choi Byung-Chan lost an arm in an instant. He struggled in pain while twisting his body recklessly. However, Rachel was holding onto him so strongly that all of his movements merely shook her slightly.

‘It's not the physical force.’?

Rachel was easily holding onto Choi Byung-Chan, using his turbulent movement as rebound energy. As if this was all a joke, she played with him like he was a doll, then threw him on the floor. She now looked tired of him.

With a belch, Choi Byung-Chan was buried in the ground. He was completely wrecked. The villain, who was too strong for Choi Yu-Seong, had been overpowered in a single moment.

'Damn that monster. I’m sure that Mi-Na noo-nim cut her right wrist off but how did it regenerate back? Is it my turn next?’

Choi Yu-Seong felt both curiosity and astonishment. He was also trying to find a way out of the current situation, because he knew that Rachel was a completely unpredictable cannonball.

Here, Choi Yu-Seong had misunderstood another thing. It was the thought that Rachel would be satisfied after overpowering her opponent. Without even looking at Yu-Seong, she strongly slapped Choi Byung-Chan's cheek.

"I don't like it when others touch the things I chose. So I was really angry when I first saw you pick on it, but it was cute seeing that cute gold nugget struggling. Hahaha,” Rachel said with a smile, looking at Byung-Chan shivering all over.

"Ah...ahhh..." Choi Byung-Chan avoided eye contact with Rachel and groaned, perhaps because he surrendered to the overwhelming power or because he couldn't withstand the madness rising within her eyes.

"But you should have done it moderately. You dare to kill the kid I chose? Whose permission did you get?" Rachel questioned as she slowly raised her hand ax.

Choi Byung-Chan saw that and shook his head urgently. He begged, "Please, please don't..."

"Don’t do what?" asked Rachel.

"Please don’t kill me. Please..."

Choi Byung-Chan's desperate gaze met Rachel's red eyes. Rachel smiled brightly at him and said, “Do you take only one bite of your meal?”

Rachel's hand ax bisected Choi Byung-Chan's head at once. Under the moonlight, blood soared like a fountain in the black night sky, covering Rachel's red hair and white skin in an instant. Rachel closed her eyes as if enjoying it, and raised her head as she commented, "Ah, not a bad taste."

Rachel slowly turned toward Choi Yu-Seong.

Choi Byung-Chan was dead. Recognizing that fact one step later, Choi Yu-Seong bit his lip and raised himself up. He wasn’t close to this particular brother anyway, and this sibling had tried to kill him. There was no reason to feel sad.

"Why are you not happy, my gold nugget? Didn’t you want to kill him?”

Though, there was no reason to be happy either.

"I had to because I didn't want to die,” Yu-Seong said.

Now, Choi Yu-Seong clearly knew that there was no justification for murder. But at least, he didn't want to be a human being who killed people mercilessly like Rachel. Therefore, he answered Rachel's question firmly once he caught his breath.

In fact, he didn't think defense would be helpful since his current opponent was Rachel, the Slaughter Queen. However, he was still going to do his best to survive. He had no intention to die.

Also, Choi Yu-Seong's life has always been a series of surviving and overcoming such wars.

"As expected, you're funny, you gold nugget. I can’t even tell if you are scared or not…" Rachel said with a grin. Then, she instantly vanished. In the blink of an eye, her hot breath mixed with a bloody odor touched the tip of Choi Yu-Seong's nose.

“...?!” Yu-Seong wielded his spear as if struggling desperately, but his attempt was easily blocked by Rachel's left hand.

"If you don't want to die, stay calm." Rachel smiled and placed her right hand on Yu-Seong's head. She commented, "In the meantime, you've gotten a little stronger. You worked hard, didn't you?"

Yu-Seong aimed his fist for a gap, but Rachel simply grabbed it and twisted it in the other direction. He cried out, "Ahhhhhah-!”

“Shh!" Rachel smiled and blocked Yu-Seong's screaming lips with her index finger. She went on to ask, "I think you should come into my arms joyfully. Why are you so rebellious? You're saying he’s still your brother?”

"I know I’ll die the moment I hug you. Do you think I’m crazy?” Yu-Seong answered defiantly through clenched teeth.

‘As expected, Rachel killed him even though she knew he was my family.’?

In other words, Rachel didn’t even care about Choi Woo-Jae, who everyone in this country was afraid of. It wouldn’t be a big deal for Rachel to kill Choi Yu-Seong even in such a place without taking much time. It was just like she had cut Choi Byung-Chan's head in half.

"Hahaha! That's right. If you're such an easy-going man, it's not fun to raise and eat you up."

"...what? Ugh!"

Rachel hit Yu-Seong’s ankle and collapsed him on the floor at once. She lifted Yu-Seong's chin with her index finger and thumb. She then cooed, "Do you really think I haven't been able to find you just because I'm being chased by the Player Association or something?”

Yu-Seong felt breathless when he saw Rachel’s insane gaze just a stone's throw away.

"It's a misunderstanding, you gold nugget. I’m just keeping you alive. I always wait until the very end to taste the delicious food.” Rachel smiled and moved her fingertips slowly down from Yu-Seong's chin. With eyes gleaming with madness, she said, "Actually, I'm not patient, so I keep wanting to open your head and check to see what’s in your brain..."

Rachel used her index finger to swipe up a bit of Yu-Seong's blood, which lightly flowed down his forehead.

"I want to…hear that scream right now. But…" Rachel slightly licked the tip of her index finger for a taste. Then, she got up and continued, "I'll endure it until you become more mature and delicious. I am curious how much you can grow. You know, a strong man is my cup of tea…"

Bang!

At that moment, Rachel bent her waist back at the sound of gunfire. The bullet hit the ground, and she immediately turned to look at the roof of the building on the other side.

Jenny, the Western woman with scattering blonde hair, had been looking for a chance to shoot. She clicked her tongue. At the same time, a hand ax flew in front of her nose.

Kwakwang-!

Jenny rolled on the floor several times, pulled out her gun again, and shot a bent hand ax. A series of shots hit the night air in Seoul, and the sound of sirens and helicopter propellers began to ring out from all sides.

It wasn't until then that Rachel slowly pulled herself up from Yu-Seong and recovered her hand ax.

Yu-Seong could feel the signs of the Player Association’s hunters and the Special Police Force flying through the dawn of Seoul.

"Unfortunately, that's it for today. My gold nugget, you can cheer up for now. If you don't meet my expectations until the next time we meet...." Rachel licked her lips and smiled. "I don't think I can show any more patience. Whoo whoo."

Shortly afterwards, Rachel disappeared like smoke.

"Ha..." Yu-Seong reflexively breathed a big sigh and jumped up from his seat. The air that was dense and heavy enough to almost suffocate him had become light again. He felt like his whole body was torn apart, but he didn't intend to relax.

‘Jin Do-Yoon!’

Choi Yu-Seong ran downstairs, rolling on the floor several times before approaching the unconscious Do-Yoon who was back into his human form. Yu-Seong put his ear on Do-Yoon’s left chest.

Boom, boom, boom.

It was slow, but his heart was still beating.

‘He’s alive.’

Do-Yoon didn’t look okay, but at least he was alive.

As soon as the tension was eased a little, a special police officer who was wearing a familiar rabbit mask appeared in front of Yu-Seong.

In a way, this disturbance had been going on for a long time, so it could be said that this was a rather late appearance.

‘Why are you so late?’

Choi Yu-Seong questioned inwardly.

"...The damn head of the Special Police Force informed me very late." Surprisingly, the police officer Myo, Choi Mi-Na, spoke as if responding to Yu-Seong's inner feelings. Then, she turned back and asked, "You can move, right?"

"...yes."

"It's going to be a pretty long, tough night. Cheer up." With a deep sigh, Choi Mi-Na left.

After that, police flocked over, and Yu-Seong shouted as he raised his arms at them pointing guns in the dark, "I'm Choi Yu-Seong, the ninth child of the Comet group! Please, I'm begging you, I ask for medical staff who can come immediately."

The disastrous night was reaching its end.
