#63. Spy Search

Since two weeks ago, the number of people acting suspiciously near Ilwolyun-ga has increased rapidly.

More than 90% of those who displayed suspicious behavior were foreigners, and a characteristic feature was that many of them had sunken eyes.

And… usually, people with that kind of look in their eyes were people who worked in the dark parts of the world.

The heroes of the Yun family knew this fact. Nevertheless, all they could do was stare at the suspicious foreigners.

How could they kidnap foreigners just because they looked suspicious? And they were only walking around in broad daylight. No matter how great the power of the Ilwol Yoon family was, they couldn’t openly kidnap foreigners on the street in broad daylight, especially in front of their parents’ house.

And even when I tried to investigate, I couldn’t because he disappeared like a ghost.

The heroes of the Sun and Moon Family simply passed them by, thinking they were just scouts.

But… these guys were beyond the imagination of the Yun family.

‘Fuck… Those crazy kids back then were assassins?’

assassin.

Those who came to spy on Yun Ga were actually informants or assassins who came to find out about their power, and they went to visit the key heroes and head of the family within the clan.

And died.

But that wasn’t the end of it. As the day passed, new assassins came looking for Yun Ga again.

At this point, Yoon Hyuk-kwon was on the verge of losing his mind.

“Han Seong-jin, this crazy kid…!”

At this, Yun Hyuk-kwon felt his insides boiling with emotion.

The assassins were unable to inflict any significant damage on Yun Ga. However, they were eroding the mental strength of the heroes belonging to the group every day.

As each day passed, the faces of the members became more and more haggard. They could not sleep properly and worried about when and where the assassin would come.

“Whew… I knew he was crazy, but I didn’t know he was crazy enough to send assassins to dozens of people every day… .”

Yun Hyuk-kwon, who had come to his senses, thought calmly and assessed the current state of his family.

‘This can’t go on… We need to launch an attack at the family level right away.’

Yoon Hyuk-kwon has not been able to attack Han Seong-jin due to the S-class gate strategy and other circumstances. He is not someone who can be attacked without a plan anyway.

That’s why I planned to take advantage of the problems that still remained within Shinga to bring him down, and I was planning to do it now.

“There, three. And one next to it.”

I summoned everyone in the Kwon Seong-shin family using the authority of my head of household, Cynthia.

It was time for Yun Ga to start making moves, so he decided to solve one of the important problems within the Shin Ga family.

“And… over there. Ah. No, not that person, the person next to him.”

And as he passed by, he pointed at each person with his hand.

“…What on earth are you doing gathering all these people together?”

One of the heroes from the Shinga faction expressed his discontent to me and asked,

“Oh. And you too.”

“Could you please explain what exactly you are doing…?”

“Where else are they… Ah, the one at the very back with short hair and a man in front of him. And the woman who is third from the back on the far left.”

“When a person speaks, you answer-”

I interrupted the man who was asking me a question and continued speaking.

“They are all works of art.”

I nominated a total of twelve people.

Among them were heroes, as well as ordinary servants.

“Hey! What kind of nonsense is that! Even if you are an acquaintance of Sogaju, I cannot tolerate such an insult!”

“Shouldn’t we check whether it is an insult or not? If you are innocent, you will receive the appropriate compensation. If not… you know?”

I calmly accepted the angry man’s words. The guys I just pointed out, along with the one who got angry, were all spies planted by Ilwol Yoonga. In other words, they were spies.

From noble mtl dot com

‘That’s a lot… Twelve of them?’

There is one reason why I was able to filter these out.

The very characteristic, the observer.

This is a trait that allows you to read the information of the person in question, and through this, you can find out the details. “Do you have any evidence that the person you pointed out is Sejak?”

“evidence?”

“Yes. Here is the evidence.”

Of course there is evidence. I can’t say that I saw it with my own characteristics… Of course, I looked for physical evidence and gathered it. Once I figured out who the real person was, gathering evidence wasn’t that difficult.

That’s why it’s important to find out.

“If you are just accusing us of something without any evidence, then be prepared!”

A middle-aged man was swearing at me while wearing a hao-che. He was not a hero or anything, just an ordinary servant. No matter what, he was the head of the household and an acquaintance of the household… Is it right for a mere servant, and a third-class man, to swear at me?

That was when I was thinking like that.

An eerie sound of “thud” rang out, and soon a man’s scream rang out.

“Eww!”

Cynthia approached the man in an instant, grabbed his finger that was pointing at me, and broke it.

“You’re so confident despite being so small? Did your liver stick out of your stomach?”

“Ugh!”

“If you don’t want to die, just keep quiet.”

The voices that had been questioning me disappeared in an instant at Cynthia’s cold voice. At the same time, Cynthia snatched a piece of paper from the man’s other hand and put it in her pocket.

‘… Oh, um. Was Sia really this aggressive?’

I was just nervous. Before doing anything, of course, I showed the list of documents and evidence to Cynthia, the head of the household, and Shin Dong-baek, who was at the hospital.

So I understand why he moves with such confidence… but I didn’t know he would act like this.

It seems that he has a special attachment to his family.

“Everyone, listen carefully. The people that Mr. Han Seong-jin has pointed out are all descendants of Ilwolyunga who planted their seed in our family. Proof? Of course there is.”

Because it was a public setting, Cynthia did not call him by his usual title but called him “Mr. ~.”

And as he finished speaking, he took a box that was behind him and put it down.

There were numerous photographs and small recording devices inside.

Cynthia picked up one of the small recording devices and played it back in front of the man whose finger she had just broken.

-As you instructed, I am dissolving a small amount of Iculus’ poison into the food that the Shinga heroes eat every day. If I take it consistently for about two weeks, it will start to have a little effect on my body, and my magic will be completely solidified before a month. Yes, yes. I will do that.

The recorder was picking up the voice of a man who was swearing at me.

At this, people began to murmur.

And cold sweat ran down the faces of the people I had pointed out as the three masters.

‘Sia is good at setting the mood… She has the natural talent to become the head of the household.’

Charisma, atmosphere, and force.

Cynthia had the right qualities to become the head of the household. Unfortunately, in the original, her family had already disappeared, so she was unable to become the head of the household.

“Twelve consecutive fists.”

“”yes!””

At Cynthia’s call, twelve people standing behind her simultaneously answered. They were all direct subordinates of the head of the household, loyal vassals of the Shin family, and warriors with skills above the upper rank.

“Arrest all the people that Mr. Han Seong-jin just pointed out. The next story… I guess we’ll have to talk in the basement.”

“”insect!””

“And… especially the person whose finger I just broke, I want to talk to him separately… so please lock him in the underground solitary cell.”

“All right!”

“And… Mr. Han Seong-jin, would you like to talk to me?”

“Uh, um… yes. Sure.”

I don’t know why, but I ended up using formal language.

***

Cynthia took Han Seong-jin to the master’s office.

And he sat me down on a chair.

She was still angry the whole time she came here.

Who was the anger directed at? Of course, it was directed at Han Seong-jin.

‘… My brother almost got hurt!’

She saw the spy Han Sung-jin was pointing at doing something suspicious, such as swinging his sword with one hand and putting the other hand in his pocket, and she immediately moved her body.

And thankfully, thanks to that, no problems arose.

“What if the Three Musketeers suddenly change and attack? That guy who was swearing at you earlier. Do you know that he had an explosive scroll in his other pocket?”

“… I’m sorry for worrying you.”

Han Seong-jin immediately apologized.

And at the same time, he made excuses.

“But… anyway, I have my bodyguards and your family’s lords, and there’s a wide-area barrier artifact. Even if it explodes, there won’t be much damage-.”

“So you’re saying you didn’t do anything wrong?”

“no.”

“From now on, if you have any new works, don’t just collect them like this and let me know, just let me know right away.”

“…? What are you going to do?”

Han Seong-jin tilted his head and asked.

“Of course… we have to deal with it.”

Cynthia’s voice was low.

At the same time she made up her mind.

I have to destroy the Sun and Moon Movement somehow.
