The Extra's Return-Chapter 34 The Black Box Organization (2)
?[The Stigma of Darkness has successfully absorbed Death Mana.]
Only the system message before my eyes confirmed that the Stigma of Darkness had absorbed something.
Death Mana? I don't know what it is.
For now, I ignore that.
I have to quickly clear the guards of the other Black Box Organization headquarters before anyone notices my movements.
But before I stepped in to kill the others, I took out the sword hidden by the guard of the Black Box Organization headquarters that I had just killed.
With the preparations finished, I started running toward the other guards. Luckily, because of their great distance, they didn't know that I had killed one of them.
Therefore, I approached them one by one, covered their mouths, and strangled them until no bad breath came out of their noses or mouths.
"Ugh!"
"Ack!"
"Mm!"
Not all of them were pretending to be drunk bums. Many of them just sleep on the side of the road, watching from the roofs, or even hiding in the garbage dump.
If I didn't have any memories of this place from my previous life, I definitely wouldn't know where they were hiding.
To ensure their existence, I also made sure to always activate the Hear of Everything skill. That way, I can hear the sound of their breathing.
It was quite a waste of time but ended with success.
Once I was sure that I had eliminated all the guards, I entered the building that was their headquarters.
I don't have to enter through the window like a thief. Since I had cleared the guards, I entered through the front door.
Without thinking, I opened the door and entered. The first thing I saw was the darkness within the building. Even the windows were tightly closed.
There were torches along the corridor, but they didn't light them.
What helped me see the situation inside the building was only a light from outside that faintly came through the cracks in the wooden walls of the building.
That's the scene I saw when I went inside.
I noticed that some of the rooms were still pitch black, which indicated that the occupants of the room were sleeping.
Without waiting any longer, first, I opened one of the rooms, where I was certain that it belonged to one of their members.
Fortunately, my eyes have started to get used to this darkness. So, with only the help of a little reflection of light from the outside, I could see the situation inside the room.
In a room that had no light at all, there was a large mound on top of the mattress. The mound was covered by a blanket, and the mound continued to churn.
"Ooh! I'm coming."
"Ah! Why did you come out so soon?"
"S-Shut up! D-Do you dare insult me? Damn you whore!"
A voice retorting back and forth came from within the mound of blankets. Their voices were so well muffled that I only could hear them because I still activated the Hear of Everything skill.
Not long after that, because their blankets were down, the two human figures that had been under the blankets came into my view.
The scene in front of me showed the face of a man on top while a woman was on the bottom.
I didn't have to open the blanket to know what they were doing.
Silently, I picked up the knife lying not far from his bed. I'm sure that it's the weapon of the person fighting on the bed. I couldn't kill him with the sword because it was too long.
And it seems that they are too focused on fighting that they are not aware of my existence.
I moved in an instant. Before he could even notice my presence, I was already standing behind him. Next, my left hand immediately covered his mouth from behind his back.
"Euppp!!"
Crock!
Before he could even muster a shred of strength against me, the knife in my right hand had pierced right through his heart.
It happened in an instant.
Blood spurted everywhere. Wet the whole bed.
Since the whore was right under the body of the person I stabbed in the back, most of the blood was pouring down her face and body. As a result, she immediately fainted without being able to scream.
With this, one room has been completed.
I still have a lot of room to take care of. Thus, before the sun rose in the far east, I rushed to finish what I was doing.
Every time I entered the room, I could always see familiar faces that had bullied me in my previous life.
Without much extra effort, I stabbed and killed them in various ways. I slashed at their heads, some noticed my presence as well, but I acted quickly and immediately subdued them before they could send a signal.
Meanwhile, the whore beside them I made unconscious by hitting their necks. Luckily, most of them had finished and were fast asleep, so it was easy enough for me to attack them.
That way, I've cleared about 20 rooms. I finished one room in 2 minutes, so about 40 minutes had passed. Where I entered, sneaked in, and killed every member of the Black Box Organization in it.
Splash!
Blood splashed on the floor. This was the last room the regular members were in, without a whore at the side.
In that way, now it's only their leader's room that I haven't entered.
"I didn't think that I would be able to beat them this easily."
The reason why I was able to stab every one of them without too much trouble was probably due to the physical increase I gained. Moreover, combined with the killing experience I had in my previous life.
So, it's only natural that I can kill them easily.
But, every good thing will surely be followed by a bad thing. That's what I thought as I looked up at the room I was in.
The room, which was originally dark without a sound, suddenly came from a voice. The voice came from above the room I was in. That room is the room where their leader or boss is.
"So he's awake, huh?! Why doesn't he just sleep for a bit?"
I muttered under my breath, still maintaining the focus I was keeping without lowering it. f𝓇𝘦e𝑤𝘦𝚋𝒏૦ѵℯ𝒍.c𝐨𝒎
Stomp!
Bam!
The sound that came from above was the stomping of feet trying to break through the ceiling. As it turned out, without waiting long, the ceiling above me was instantly destroyed.
In that instant moment, a huge hole was instantly created.
The person who broke through the ceiling plunged and slid down, heading straight for me.
A large ax was in his hand, swinging heavily toward my head. From the attack he launched, I could feel a thick killing intent.
Taking advantage of the momentum he had from the downward pull of gravity, he attacked me with his sword. When he attacks along with his body weight, I will be overwhelmed if I take his attacks head-on like a fool.
Thus, I tried to minimize the impact of his attacks, as I usually do. Also, the opening of the reflex stat in my status window also helped me a bit in responding to surprise attacks like this.
Clang!
That way, along with my parry, I kicked the floor and jumped to the side. In that way, I managed to fend off his attacks.
I received only a small amount of impact from his attack, while all the impact from his attack rushed downwards.
Bam!
The floor of the room shattered as the large ax in his hand plunged and hit the floor.
"You managed to dodge my attack? That was surprising. I thought it was just a fly from another group, but I didn't expect it to be someone quite capable."
He got up and looked at me with a smug grin on his face. From his appearance, he looked similar to a middle-aged man. But he has some prominent muscles in his body. I think that's a testament to his strength.
Unmistakably, he was the leader of the Ryam City Branch of the Black Box Organization.
According to the information I remember, the mana core level in his body is at the mid to low level, so, he can take out quite a lot of mana.
Whereas by the standards of the Adventurer's Guild, he was probably equivalent to a B-ranked Adventurer. The average strength of a B-rank Adventurer would already make them famous in a small town, like Ryam City.
If it wasn't for the sudden increase in strength in my body, I wouldn't have dared to rush in here right away. 𝐟𝚛e𝐞𝙬𝗲𝒃𝓷𝒐𝘃e𝒍.c𝑜m
"Which group are you from, kid?"
"Does it matter? It's clear that we are enemies. Shouldn't we just fight?"
"Hahahaha, I like your answer. But, how dare you kill my men!"
He saw the bodies of his men lying on the bed.
I could guess that right now, he was wary of me.
"You don't have to wait for the rest of your men to arrive, considering the commotion you created. After all, I killed them all."
With the slightest provocation, he was ready to explode.
With emotions etched in his head, he readied the ax in his hand to attack me. But, without waiting for the attack to come, I immediately attacked using the sword in my hand.
I've thrown away the knife I've been using.
It's time to fight the boss with my main weapon.
