Chapter 53: Unexpected news (3)

Yun Munpyung spoke and Chun Yeowun turned to Yum Gisub. Yum Gisub shook his head and replied, “I was appointed to be president at this company only a few months ago after my company was bought out.”

It felt bitter to speak about the company buy out and Yum Gisub looked down. This meant that Yum Gisub had less important information than Yun Munpyung.

‘Then this is all they have about the Blade God Six Martial clan for now.”

But it was better than nothing at least. Now, it was time to ask what he really wanted to know. If these people were the descendants of the Blade God Six Martial clan, it was sure that they had fought against the Great Demonic Cult. If then, he had to ask about the cult’s nemesis.

“Do you know anything about the Demonic Cult?”

“P-pardon?”

Yun Munpyung asked back weirdly. It seemed as if he had never heard the name.

“Are you pretending you have not heard of it?”

Yun Munpyung became startled at the slightly annoyed voice and hastily shook his head and hands to deny the claim.

“O-of course, not sir! I have never heard of it.”

“You’ve never heard of it?”

Chun Yeowun became grim. He even began to worry that maybe the Demonic Cult had not existed in this world. That’s when Yun Munpyung, who had been repeating the name, suddenly became startled and asked, “…S-sir. Are you maybe talking about the ‘Black Sky Company,’ that disbanded 26 years ago? Those who were called ‘the cult’ back in the days?”

“What?!”

Chun Yeowun became shocked and jumped up from his seat. This meant that the Great Demonic Cult had disappeared again. Chun Yeowun glared at Yun Munpyung and asked again with a low voice, “You better talk to me in detail about…”

It was then. He felt a slight move of energy.

The bomb control device on the sofa’s armrest was pulled into someone’s hand. It was the man in a grey coat: Hojung.

“Hahahahahaha!!!”

He couldn’t hide his excitement for taking control of the device that could set off a nano bomb. He had been waiting for this moment when Chun Yeowun might lose his attention at the device. Hojung was not at the superior master stage, but he was a super master stage who could use his energy to control small object to pull it into him.

‘OHHH!!’

Yun Munpyung and Yum Gisub also became surprised. They had never expected Hojung to show this kind of courageous act.

‘Good!!!’

If Hojung had taken the device to set off the nano bomb, then he had to be given time to run away. Yum Gisub shouted excitedly.

“GOOD! Hojung, you must…”

That’s when something unexpected happened. Hojung used his energy to immediately shatter the control device into pieces. Yum Gisub became dumbfounded and mumbled.

“Y… you… what are you…?”

“If the device is no longer available, there is no way to detonate the bomb, nor to disable the bomb at all. And now, the device has been destroyed.” Hojung began to laugh maniacally at Yun Munpyung and Yum Gisub who seemed to be shocked.

“Hahahahaha! You thought I will stay quiet for your orders forever because of the nano bombs?!”

“What?”

“I have no way to fight both of you anyway, but who knew I would be given such a chance? Now, you two should learn the pain of carrying nano bombs inside your bodies! Hahahaha!”

Both of them became shocked and dumbfounded at Hojung’s words. He was appointed as the team leader because of his loyalty, so they never expected the man to betray him in the end. Even Kin Jongse seemed to be shocked.

‘T-this bastard!’

There was something he had heard before being injected with the nano bomb. He was told that the device that had been shattered was the only device that could set off the nano bomb, or disable it. But now, it was destroyed all thanks to Hojung.

‘There’s no way I can disable those bombs if we don’t have that!’

Even if there was no way to threaten them for activating the bomb, it still carried the danger of carrying a bomb that could kill him at any time. Hojung shouted, “Hahaha! You should all run if you want to survive from that monster! Go! Run!”

With that, Hojung tried to take stepping skills to run out of the window. He was planning to break out of it and jump down, while taking the risk. He figured he couldn’t run out of the office against such powerful martial artist. It was then.

Everyone heard someone snapping their finger. And…

*BOOOOOM!!*

Hojung’s body who was trying to jump out toward the window let out the sound of an explosion and red light. His body immediately burned into black soot.

“W-what did just h…”

As Kin Jongse tried to speak, but Hojung’s body immediately turned into ashes and fell.

‘N-nano bomb exploded!’

Yun Munpyung had seen the nano bomb exploding through the video when he was given this bomb. The best part about the nano bomb was that it only killed and destroyed its target without affecting any others on the outside.

‘But there’s no detonator! HOW?!’

Everyone became shocked and looked at Chun Yeowun.

And Chun Yeowun heard Nano’s voice ringing through his head.

[Sending signal to black device of copied code is completed.]

Nano already had copied all ten detonation codes on the device. Yeowun did not require the device from the beginning. Yeowun then turned his head and looked at Yum Gisub who was about halfway standing up.

‘UGH!’

Yun Munpyung from his left then shouted hastily.

“I didn’t make any movement, sir!”
