I Don’t Want This Reincarnation

Chapter 92

Kugugugung!

I opened my eyes, startled by the sound of the floor shaking.

Kugugung! Kugung!

Sitting with a throbbing headache, I looked up at the top of the stairs with difficulty at the sound of the non-stop explosions.

“What…?”

I couldn’t figure out what was going on. When I wiped my dry lips with my tongue, I could feel the taste of fishy blood.

‘I thought they would come to save me.’

Cha Soo-yeon or Woo Seo-hyuk would have noticed that I was kidnapped openly in the Jayna Guild area. But I didn’t know they would find it this quickly though.

Who came? Woo Seo-hyuk? Did Cha Soo-yeon or Hong Si-ah come too? The dolls I saw before looked pretty strong, but I guess they’re all dangerous.

Even though I found out that there were people who came to rescue me, somehow I became more anxious than relieved.

‘Kang Seung-geon is S-rank… That doll is the problem. At least it will be an S-rank.’

Two S-rank people. It wouldn’t be easy. I wish I could fight with them.

I sighed as the reality of being captured helplessly was suffocating, and the building itself shook with a roar and concrete powder fell from the ceiling.

Squeak!

In the midst of the frantic crashing and breaking sound, Kang Seung-geon opened the iron door and came down the stairs. Breathing in his rough breath, he came straight up to me sitting in the corner.

“Fuck, fuck! Crazy punks, how they can be here…”

“Ugh, what…!”

Kang Seung-geon grabbed the back of my head forcefully. Even so, the injured head was pulled and a terrible pain swept over me. The pain was so unbearable that my view turned white, I chewed on the inside of my mouth and forcibly suppressed the scream.

“Why, why did he come all the way here? Oh? What the hell is this guy…”

“Huu, ugh!”

Kang Seung-geon mumbled something unknown and started dragging me along. His tethered arms and shoulders reflexively tightened. I twisted my body as much as I could to avoid being dragged, but it didn’t work at all.

“I have to run away. Right now!”

“……!”

If he moved now, the situation became the worst. Whatever he did, I had to stop Kang Seung-geon. However, I didn’t know how to deal with the continuing pain and unusual behaviour of Kang Seung-geon.

‘What should I do? I need to release my arm…!’

My arms, which had been tied tightly for more than several hours, were very stiff and painful, but I endured the pain and moved my body recklessly to release the tied arm. As I rebelled and moved violently, Kang Seung-geon, who was dragging me forcibly, looked down at me with an annoyed frown.

“You punk.”

“Haa, introduce myself?” (???? ??)

As I twisted my mouth and smiled at the gaze I finally met, Kang Seung-geon, wriggling his eyebrows, kicked my stomach without a fuss.

“Gasp…!”

For a moment, my breath was choked and my upper body was dried up like a shrimp. Kang Seung-geon spat while putting me under his feet as I spit dry cough.

“A bastard without a dick lives only with his mouth. I’m so busy right now.” (?? ?? ??? ?? ???, shit what it is again?)

“Uh…”

Rattle, rattle.

The floor where Kang Seung-geon was standing cracked and began to shake. No way, the ability now…

“Get away.”

In a desperate situation, I collapsed and panted, exhausted, and an unimaginable voice came over his back. Like me, he didn’t think anyone would intervene, so Kang Seung-geon was surprised and looked back.

“Right now.”

There were straight outstretched hands holding a long-barrelled pistol, and auburn eyes staring at Kang Seung-geon accurately.

“Get away from Han Yi-gyeol.”

In the calm voice that flowed out, I could feel a cold chill unlike usual. It didn’t feel real, so I called out his name blankly.

“Kim Woo-jin?”

How are you here? As if he couldn’t hear my whispers, Kim Woo-jin didn’t take his eyes off Kang Seung-geon.

“Ha, shit…”

Kang Seung-geon rubbed the nape of his neck with an absurd expression. Kugung, gung! The floor shook more violently and cracked deeply.

“The little bastards keep disturbing me.”

Even though there was a gun in front of him, Kang Seung-geon wasn’t afraid. Unless he was an expert in handling guns, it wasn’t easy to reach the S-rank, where his physical ability was extremely high. Even the fact that Kim Woo-jin was an A-rank clone magician had already spread all over the world, so there was no way that Kang Seung-geon didn’t know him.

Despite Kang Seung-geon’s provocation, Kim Woo-jin didn’t lower his gun. Kim Woo-jin’s face, seen under the pale light of the basement, didn’t show any agitation. It was Kang Seung-geon who was pushed back by that appearance.

Kang Seung-geon, who retreated from the cold eyes under the red hair that covered his forehead, waved his hand. Then, cracked and rattling of concrete debris floated into the air. The debris showing a sharp cross-section toward Kim Woo-jin was very threatening.

“Kim, Woo-jin…!”

Kim Woo-jin, who didn’t back down, made me nervous. Run away quickly before you get hurt. He hadn’t been long since he re-awakened. I’ll try enduring it.

“Hey, A-rank.”

“……”

“If you run away right now, I will let you go. I’m very generous to these little bastards even I’m like this.”

“Try it.”

Kang Seung-geon frowned at the calm answer.

“What?”

“I said, try it.”

“What the—”

At that moment, at the same time as a gunshot, Kang Seung-geon quickly turned his upper body to the side. A bullet narrowly passed by Kang Seung-geon’s arm and pierced the wall. Kang Seung-geon’s face instantly burned red with anger at Kim Woo-jin’s action, who shot first.

“This bastard!”

“Kim Woo-jin!”

Three huge concrete debris floating behind Kang Seung-geon flew to Kim Woo-jin in an instant. My heart was beating loudly and the image of Kim Woo-jin seriously injured passed by like an afterimage. No, you have to stop—

“Oh?”

Kang Seung-geon, who watched in anticipation of the debris penetrating Kim Woo-jin’s body, opened his mouth with a stupid expression. Two identical-looking Kim Woo-jin flew to both sides with flying debris in between. Is it possible to create clones at such a speed? For a moment, I was as surprised as Kang Seung-geon was.

Crack! Instead of Kim Woo-jin’s body, grey smoke was scattered from the concrete debris stuck to the wall, and Kim Woo-jin, holding a gun, pulled the trigger once more. Taang! At the same time as his gunfire, a bullet went into the right shoulder of Kang Seung-geon, who had been careless, and his blood splattered.

“Kuaaak!”

I looked up blankly at Kang Seung-geon, who was screaming in pain, and someone grabbed my shoulder from the side. Surprised and looking back, it was another Kim Woo-jin. As Kang Seung-geon grabbed his bloody shoulder and staggered, Kim Woo-jin, who pulled me in and hugged me, quickly widened the distance from Kang Seung-gun.

“Kim, Woo-jin. This, my arms…”

Hearing what I said, Kim Woo-jin pulled out a small self-defence knife from his waist and cut off the string at once. Then, an energy that hadn’t been moved before wrapped around my heart and began to flutter. I felt excruciating pain on my shoulders, which had been tied up for a long time, but I clenched my teeth and swung my arms around.

Hwiing!

As I wrapped Kim Woo-jin’s body with my ability, he jumped in the direction of the stairs while holding me. Taang! I heard another shot.

“Damn, do you think I’m going to miss it!?”

The second bullet fired several long and sharp concrete debris at me as Kang Seung-geon, who had escaped, was running away. It was an S-rank attack, so it was impossible to block it with A-rank ability. I was trying to twist the path of the debris as much as possible using the wind, but someone interrupted me.

“……!”

It was Kim Woo-jin, who was holding Kang Seung-geon in check with a gun on the left. Kim Woo-jin, who stopped me without avoiding even the debris flying quickly, pulled the trigger for the third time.

Tang!

Crack!

At the same time as the gunfire, I heard a terrible sound of flesh and bones being pierced and broken, and instead of me, Kim Woo-jin’s body, which had been shattered, fell down with blood splattered. My heart raced too fast at the shocking sight that unfolded before my eyes.

“Cough… gasp…!”

“Han Yi-gyeol. Yi-gyeol-ah.”

Kim Woo-jin whispered in a soft voice to me as I was gasping for breath while holding his chest.

“Calm down. It’s a clone.”

Literally, Kim Woo-jin’s clone, who was shattered instead of me, became smoke and dispersed. Still, the shock didn’t go away. Emotions pushed to the limit took everything sensitively.

“Kuaaak, fuck it!”

Kang Seung-geon, whose left thigh was pierced by the last gunshot by his clone, screamed and cursed.

“Let’s go.”

In the meantime, Kim Woo-jin hugged me and hurriedly climbed the stairs and opened the iron door. Then came a hallway painted in pure white paint. Instead of moving on, Kim Woo-jin entered one of the many rooms in the hallway. It certainly wasn’t a bad choice as there was a high chance of being caught by Kang Seung-geon if he crossed the hallway like this.

After sitting close to the wall and waiting for a while, Kang Seung-geon muttered a curse and passed in front of the room where we were hiding with urgent and rough footsteps.

Haa. Only then did I breathe a sigh of relief and turn my gaze to Kim Woo-jin, who was sitting in front of me. He still had an unfamiliarly calm face, but his complexion was too pale and he was sweating coldly, perhaps because of the pain his clone had suffered.

“Kim Woo-jin, are you okay? How did you get here?”

“……”

“You share your senses with your clone. If you block it so recklessly… Kim Woo-jin?”

I called again, but no answer came back. Come on.

“…hey, are you angry?”

“……”

No words this time, he must be really mad. I hurriedly poured out my excuses.

“No, I got caught while I was careless, so I don’t have anything to say. Still, I thought that I would be rescued, so I tried to be as calm as possible…”

“Sorry.”

What? I shut my mouth as I poured out gibberish at the sudden apology. At that moment, Kim Woo-jin’s eyes, which were getting redder, came into view.

Kim Woo-jin stroked my arm with a trembling hand. My arms were swollen and bruised here and there because I was tied so tightly, my left face was scarred from hitting a rough wall, my forehead and hair still dripping with blood. Kim Woo-jin, who was carefully touching the injured area one after another, dropped a big tear.

“Sorry, sorry… because I couldn’t come sooner…”

“……”

The cold and sober face that felt awkward collapsed, and Kim Woo-jin’s face, which I was familiar with, took its place. Kim Woo-jin just breathed out his hot breath and shed tears, wondering if it would hurt if he touched the wound properly.

As I looked at it, somehow I felt a throbbing sensation as if several butterflies were flapping their wings in my stomach. I had no idea how to comfort Kim Woo-jin, who was crying sadly. I was worried about what to say, with my lips moistened over and over again, but I finally pulled him into my arms and hugged him.

Kim Woo-jin, who was stiff as if surprised, immediately wrapped his arms around my waist and brought my body closer together. Kim Woo-jin, whose body temperature rose from crying, was quite warm. I closed my eyes, resting my tired face on the boy’s shoulder, which was noticeably stronger than before. A comfortable smile appeared on my lips.
