And Jeong Si-woo thought to himself.

‘You’re asking about Unknown. Are you really his enemy?’

In fact, even with empty words, the cohesion of the underworld was not good.

It is also natural for villains to have a good relationship with each other.

If he had a good personality to begin with, he would have become a hero instead of a villain.

Those who pursue their own pleasure and benefit to the extreme.

Those guys who are united by that self-centered thinking.

It was no wonder that Unknown, who suddenly tried to stand at the center of the underworld, was viewed negatively.

‘Besides, the current Unknown has risen in rank too quickly.’

Orifiel, the boss of Crimson Teeth.

In an unconventional move, Orifiel appointed Unknown as the top executive of Crimson Teeth.

Because his position in Crimson Teeth was so great, there was no outright opposition.

Nevertheless, villains who followed Crimson Teeth were likely to be dissatisfied.

‘Is he really that kind of guy? Then I have to deal with it…’

If he was like that, I, Unknown’s loyal subordinate, couldn’t leave him alone.

But at the same time, it felt extremely realistic.

‘This is the guy who saw through my hiding and caught up with me without me knowing.’

Jeong Si-woo’s keen senses and survival instincts were evident.

Even when I was secretly chasing that horror hall, I wasn’t this scared.

No, rather than being scared, the woman standing behind her didn’t feel anything.

Pure white nothingness.

So I was even more afraid.

Proof that you can perfectly control your power.

I couldn’t even feel the small amount of life that is common among villains.

‘Are you sure. ‘I am the 3rd awakener.’

Jeong Si-woo was silent, sweating coldly.

When he didn’t answer, the woman asked first in a puzzled voice.

“Huh? You don’t know either. According to Sumire, the guy who looked like a gangster was Unknown’s subordinate, so I thought he knew him well.”

I heard a familiar woman’s name.

‘Sumire?’

Sumire is also a member of Oriphiel and an executive of Crimson Teeth.

If you know Sumire like that.

I knew the identity to some extent.

‘Is he from the same Crimson Teeth?’

Jeong Si-woo quickly shook his head.

A woman from Crimson Teeth.

And he is a strong man who can call Sumire, the top executive, without hesitation.

After quickly selecting the candidates, the target was narrowed down to one person.

‘Could it be… is it her?’

Jeong Si-woo trembled at the name that immediately came to mind.

May Len.

The most dangerous villain in Crimson Teeth.

I heard this from Ghoul Hound, who I’ve become quite close to on a personal level.

– They call me Mutufani, a mad dog, and all that. After all, he is the most dangerous in Crimson Teeth.

The woman that even the rabid ghoul hound was afraid of when she mentioned her name was May Ren.

‘Sub-race. Like Oriphiel, he is also mixed with true blood.’

Sumire’s race, the dragon race, was also famous for being very rare.

May Ren is a very special Jinhyeol.

Lamia, whose blood has been passed down since ancient times. It was a sub-race mixed with snake blood.

‘It’s not just a snake-type sub-race. A special being like Orifiel, a high elf…’

The reason I joined Crimson Teeth was because of my relationship with Oriphyel.

However, May Ren was known long before Crimson Teeth was formed.

A villain who has been famous since the dark ages 30 years ago when Song Yu-hwan became famous.

As I conquered countless monsters and dungeons.

He was a person worthy of being called a hero based on his performance alone.

The reason she became a notorious villain was simple.

May Len is a hedonist.

She was a woman who moved only for her own pleasure.

As with Horror Hall, it’s not at all strange that the villain is a hedonist.

However, if you pursue pleasure, you have no choice but to reveal yourself to that extent.

You are bound to make many enemies.

However, May Ren is someone who has lived as she pleases since the Dark Ages.

Even among the Apostles of Valhalla, he was a dangerous villain who had the highest priority for assassination.

She was still alive.

The most famous saying in the underworld is that those who survive are the strongest.

Just counting the number of hunter guilds she has wiped out over the past five years, there are more than a dozen.

Of course, the villain organization as well.

‘If Unknown gets in the way of her fun…’

This meant that it would not be strange if he decided to kill the unknown.

“Did you just chew my words?”

As Jeong Si-woo continued to remain silent, May Ren spoke again.

I was so scared of her that I wanted to turn my head and kneel down right now.

I couldn’t do that.

Of course, since the person that that dangerous villain was asking about was Unknown, I, as his right hand man, had to find out that woman’s intentions.

‘You might hit a rock with an egg. If you’re targeting Unknown… even if you die right here, you can’t just reveal information about Unknown!’

Jeong Si-woo solemnly strengthened his resolve.

Unknown will definitely get his revenge.

First, I had to carefully check May Ren’s mood.

I couldn’t move at all because of fear.

Jeong Si-woo has already pledged loyalty to Unknown.

Above all, Unknown recognized himself as his right-hand man. I could never betray that expectation.

‘The fact that they chose me for Ignition is proof of their trust! So, you must repay the favor!’

As if he was forcing his body to wriggle even after being pressed down by a pair of terrible scissors.

I desperately moved my stiff body.

It was a very strong will.

As a subordinate of Unknown, he couldn’t show his ugly side in front of other villains.

Like that, Jeong Si-woo raised both hands and carefully turned his head.

Then I saw May Ren’s face.

‘W-what… It’s so damn pretty.’

He didn’t seem like a villain who terrified me at all.

A slender beauty with long black hair was looking at Jeong Si-woo with a puzzled expression.

“Huh? This guy looks really weak. How did you turn your head?”

May Ren muttered.

And the moment when Jeong Si-woo was waiting with bated breath for the next reaction.

Another person appeared on the spot.

“Mr. May? What are you doing?”

It was a familiar voice.

Sumire arrived there.

Then he looked at Jeong Si-woo and shook his head as if he understood.

“Mr. May. Still, we’re on the same side, so don’t bother us too much.”

Hearing that voice, Jeong Si-woo felt like he barely survived.

***

Sumire was busier than usual.

For a while, he left Crimson Teeth’s duties and worked as an undercover cadet.

Considering her status as a villain.

In today’s times, this is nothing short of an aberration.

However, Choi Hana was the person who held the most important key at this point.

Orifiel also allowed Sumire to be dispatched in the name of Choi Hana’s security.

‘Well… a security guard is a security guard, but he fulfilled my selfish desires a lot…’

As a big fan of Naharing, I was happy every day.

And Choi Hana, who was Na Haring’s real life counterpart, actually had a lot more cute aspects than Na Haring.

Not long ago, the sight of Lee Jun-woo carefully bragging that he had confessed to her was so cute that Sumire couldn’t sleep because she was thinking about it all night long.

‘Really… one is dangerous. In another sense, she’s like a villain.’

So, because of that terrible virtue, I stayed away from Crimson Teeth’s work for a while.

Now, for the first time in a while, she has returned to her main job.

A convention of underworld and villain organizations.

As it was a big moment that would determine their future direction, she, a key figure in Crimson Teeth, could not be absent.

‘Because no one is participating in this meeting. There are many things to pay more attention to.’

Above all, unusually, at this meeting, Unknown, not Oripher, decided to make a statement in his own name.

So many people attending the meeting questioned that fact.

True to its name, Unknown.

Nothing is known about Unknown’s whereabouts.

Sumire also had the same doubts about that declaration.

‘I was skeptical too… But still, Orifiel and Hana trust Lee Jun-woo so much.’

And so far, Lee Jun-woo has clearly proven his skills with results in his work.

Since she is Choi Hana’s lover, I can’t help but feel jealous.

Still, Sumire was already acknowledging him.

“Hmm… That person called Unknown. I’m becoming more and more curious.”

At that time, a pretty woman with black hair who was walking side by side with her spoke.

A villain named May Ren.

The thin and slender body and dark black eyes that matched the long black hair were impressive.

However, his true identity was a great powerhouse who held a special position and was an advisor to Crimson Teeth.

As expected of an arrogant dragon race, Sumirejiman is not afraid of any awakened person.

The person who is instinctively afraid is May Ren.

So, when Mei Ren, reunited after a long time, asked Sumire about Unknown.

She couldn’t talk about Lee Jun-woo carelessly.

‘Because I’m not that good around horses. ‘If there’s even an unnecessary misunderstanding, it’s a pain in the ass.’

Meanwhile, Mei Ren continued to mutter next to her.

“I’m curious. I’m curious. I’m curious… Hmm… What kind of person is he? Is he a tough man like Song Yu-hwan? I’m curious… I’m curious… I’m curious…”

And the words he kept muttering drove Sumire out of her mind.

May Ren is known as a hedonistic villain.

The truth was a little different.

The snake is an animal that symbolizes wisdom.

So, May Ren, a sub-race with ancient snake blood, was also very curious.

‘Well, that curiosity is a bit extreme.’

Because of that curiosity, he often destroyed numerous guilds and villain organizations.

So, instead of directly answering the question of what kind of person Unknown was, he deliberately sent it to Jeong Si-woo.

Jeong Si-woo is Unknown’s most loyal subordinate.

I felt like I could easily answer what kind of person Unknown was.

‘But did you overlook the fact that the other person was Mr. May?’

However, May Ren is the highest-ranking villain who has completed her third awakening.

Although she was quite strong, Jeong Si-woo, who was still at a cadet level, could not deal with her.

Just a light touch would be enough to knock it out.

“Is Unknown a very blood-crazed madman as rumored? How much did you harass your subordinates? Clearly, the guy I saw a little while ago seems like a low-level subordinate… He even ignores my spells and endures… Or does he have overwhelming charisma? A madman with a hobby of exploding his subordinates’ heads like watermelons? curious! How did he roast and boil his subordinates!!”

But when I think about it again, the reason I was afraid of Mei Ren was because of her unique personality.

‘There’s too much talk. ‘I feel like my head is pounding.’

Once I have a question, I’m the type of person who doesn’t stop thinking for a moment until the question is resolved.

If you’re a person with slender tastes, there’s a reason why she doesn’t have a boyfriend despite her looks that you can’t help but fall in love with.

Sumire secretly sympathized with Junwoo Lee.

‘Why did I become the target of that Mr. May? ‘That must be a pain in the ass.’

But she was also curious at the same time.

Among the infamous villains gathered here.

How will Unknown, who is not yet a top villain, move?

And the two entered the warehouse where the meeting would be held.

There, Lee Jun-woo and Choi Hana were standing together.

Lee Jun-woo turned his head and looked at May Ren.
