Chapter 94: Ju Sung-Taek (2)

Why? To lure them?

Because it was fun.Updated from novelbIn.(c)om

No, to be precise, because life had become boring.

Thats how life is.

There comes a day when boredom strikes so intensely that you want to drop everything.

Ju Sung-taek had been like that since the second grade of elementary school.

I thought I was going crazy from boredom.

Nothing was fun, everything was dull, and nothing was interesting no matter what he did.

Despite his young age, he had lost all enthusiasm for life.

Looking back now, it was like a missing screw, a malfunctioning part.

Even when he reached middle school, it was the same story.

He tried studying like everyone else, hoping it might get better if he immersed himself in something.

I never missed being first in class.

But even with good grades, nothing changed.

He received nothing but superficial praise and heightened expectations from his parents.

Too bored to handle, he hoped that the bullies would torment him, but not even they dared to touch the top student.

Bullies didnt dare to mess with top students.

Thats what he thought, but there was a truth that Ju Sung-taek didnt know.

The bullies didnt leave him alone not because he had good grades.

It was because of his madness.

They had seen an unfathomable madness in Ju Sung-taeks eyes.

Thats what made them avoid him.

Drip, drip

As he wiped his dagger clean on the clothes of the dead body, Ju Sung-taek reminisced about the past.

Hehehe, looking back, those times were really great. Especially when I committed my first murder.

The first person Ju Sung-taek killed was his parents.

Bored with their constant nagging due to his declining grades, he had lashed out.

Thats when the kitchen knife ended their lives.

It wasnt intentional. It was just a moment of anger.

But that moment turned out to be a turning point in his life.

Ah I cant forget that feeling even now.

The heart pounding with tension.

The living room floor stained with blood.

The feeling of pushing a knife into a persons body.

That first murder had taught him so much.

Stabbing goblins, who were smaller than middle school students, was easier than killing people.

It also matched his hobbies.

Its not as fun as killing people, but

Then, in Round 2, he was lucky enough to become a shaman while hunting.

Maybe its because of the [Rune of Drops] I received at first?

The Rune of Drops significantly increased the drop rate of special items.

The appearance of shaman-specific items might also have been influenced by the rune.

After that, well, there wasnt anything difficult.

He didnt miss 2nd or 3rd place in the previous zones, and he cleared Round 3 without any issues.

Round 4, where he had to kill people, was even easier.

For someone who had been a serial killer, it was not a difficult task.

It was actually quite exciting. Hehe.

Games that provided stimulation in his ordinary life were enjoyable for Ju Sung-taek.

He wanted to enjoy them as long as possible, even beyond survival.

If I clear up to Round 20, Ill make a wish to increase the rounds. Its just so much fun.

Now, everyday life has become boring.

If he were to go back to being a regular person, he might not be able to.

Watching the world fall apart like this is also quite exciting. Keke.

Perhaps because he had killed so many people, it was no longer about whom to kill but how to kill them in an interesting way.

What he was currently scheming was part of that plan.

What if I hide the corpse I just killed in a clothing collection bin next to the alley, and the buyer shows up?

He would detonate the corpse with the [Corpse Explosion] skill.

After rendering the guy helpless with the [Curse of Terror], he would meticulously chop his arms and legs like slicing up bugs.

No hard feelings, dude. Just understand that Im doing this for fun.

Turning away from the corpse, Ju Sung-taek looked at his phone.

There were three hours left until the agreed-upon time with the buyer.

Hurry up, you bastard. Ive prepared a gift for you. Keke.

To introduce a new stimulus, he placed the corpse in a clothing collection bin and used [Erase Trace] on the ground.

The arms and legs that had been scattered were gone, leaving no trace.

He waited for three hours with the hope that the guy would fall into the trap.

Finally.

Step by step.

One person entered the alley where the trap was set.

A wicked smile formed on Ju Sung-taeks lips.

Bingo.
