Chapter Index

    “How did you get here?”

    I didn’t even feel like I was popular.

    That fact gave goosebumps all over my body.

    If you hid all traces from him, who was at the level of an A-level awakened person.

    Of course, he is a powerhouse beyond his own level.

    However, Hwang Yong-gyun soon hid his embarrassment and cooled his head.

    ‘If that man had been hostile, I would have been killed already.’

    Rather, he was now informing himself of an enemy attack.

    Although I’m not sure if the author is really Unknown.

    First of all, he will be close to an ally.

    Soon the man spoke softly.

    “There are several parked cars. You’d better be careful.”

    A low-pitched voice that feels eerie.

    It was not easy to determine age just from that voice alone.

    Hwang Yong-gyun immediately put his knuckles on his fists.

    Then, the building’s elevator was stopped and the fire shutters were lowered.

    At the same time, he quickly made an emergency call to the gang members using his smartphone.

    However, due to the recent uprising, members of the fighting organization were dispatched to other organizations.

    An attack when the organization was empty.

    The enemy has already infiltrated the building.

    He had to deal with those enemies alone.

    ‘But the bosses and Underdolls on other floors will be fine.’

    The floor where Underdolls’ broadcasting equipment is set up is a safe building.

    It is also set up so that you can escape through a hidden exit in case of emergency.

    Just as I was about to send an emergency message telling me to run away.

    The masked man shook his head.

    “Just two people are enough to stop the raiding guys. There is no need to overdo it.”

    At those words, my fingers stopped momentarily.

    As he said.

    Underdolls was currently streaming live.

    The fact that not one, but five of the members can suddenly stop broadcasting.

    Even though he was unfamiliar with Internet broadcasting, he knew it.

    ‘I heard that the number of extreme fans has increased due to recent popularity.’

    Even if you don’t evacuate, intruders cannot enter that floor without permission.

    Not only for the safety of the boss, but also to protect the privacy of the virtual streamer.

    We increased security by not allowing anyone in during the broadcast.

    And somehow Hwang Yong-gyun couldn’t go against the man’s words.

    ‘Are you saying I am like that?’

    10 master heroes who are the pinnacle of heroes.

    And I am confident that I will not be discouraged even if I face the Seven Heavenly Evils, the peak of the underworld and villains.

    But that masked man had a different vibe from other strong men.

    unconscious instinct.

    Don’t let that instinct keep you from maintaining a high profile in front of that man.

    That was how it was being made.

    ‘You can’t deny it. That person is truly unknown.’

    And I immediately realized that the rumors going around were not lies.

    He was definitely a dangerous man.

    Before he knew it, cold sweat was streaming down his forehead.

    “Hwang Yong-gyun These are hitmen targeting you. But don’t be too nervous. Because we can use the topography of this building. Move.”

    Rather than him, who was the boss of an organization, that unknown person was calmly giving instructions.

    However, Hwang Yong-gyun did not complain and followed his words.

    ‘Following what the author says will be the way for me to survive.’

    That’s what my instincts told me after decades of living in the back alleys of this underworld.

    Hwang Yong-gyun hurried out the office door with Unknown.

    ***

    Hwang Yong-gyun followed my words without saying anything.

    The two hurriedly went upstairs.

    The place where Choi Hana is broadcasting is on the 3rd floor.

    And Hwang Yong-gyun’s office is on the 4th floor.

    So, you have arrived at the 5th floor.

    ‘I won’t be able to come up anytime soon.’

    In fact, I have visited this building not only today but also before.

    In order to purchase Ha Ye-eun’s Viewbot, I talked to several members of Jaguar’s organization.

    At that time, I figured out the structure of this building.

    In the original work, Hwang Yong-gyun was attacked by surprise.

    Although it is a fairly difficult quest.

    They were able to gain time by using the terrain, which had a complex structure on purpose to prepare for enemy attacks.

    ‘Originally it would be Choi Hana and Underdolls. And we have to wait for additional reinforcements…’

    There was no need for that now.

    Because I participated.

    Rather, if I perform well against the raiders.

    It will be much easier to achieve cooperation with Hwang Yong-gyun in the future.

    ‘There is a title called Unknown. All you have to do is stay calm.’

    A fight between awakened people is usually decided in a single moment.

    In that respect, the title Unknown is no different from a cheat for people in the underworld or villains.

    Effect of increasing attack power and reducing resistance.

    And the fear debuff temporarily limits body movement.

    As long as you clearly aim for the attacker’s head.

    The odds of victory were on this side.

    ‘Not only that. The key is probably this mask.’

    The Unknown Mask obtained at the last Mirror Hotel.

    The moment I put that mask on, I was surprised.

    [Ownership of the exclusive item has been acquired.]

    [Exclusive level increases.]

    Like the description of the system.

    Although there was a clear explanation that special effects would be added as the exclusive level indicator increased.

    [Item]==========================

    [Evaluate the target item.]

    * Name: Unknown Mask [Exclusive] / Unique / Dark / lv.2 (+1)

    ▣ Details

    : Special effects are added as the exclusive level increases. (No reinforcement required)

    ▣ Special effects

    : The level of exclusive items has increased. A special effect (skill) has been acquired.

    * Phantom the Unknown lv.1 (New!)

    : You can use the highest level of stealth by consuming mana during non-combat actions.

    ================================​​​​​

    The special effects achieved through it were beyond imagination.

    ‘Phantom the Unknown. It’s the highest level of stealth.’

    Although I don’t completely believe that explanation.

    I was sure it happened a little while ago.

    Even though I got close to him.

    Hwang Yong-gyun didn’t notice me.

    Right in the tutorial, when I was chasing and hunting through the horror hall.

    It was the same fraud-level skill that was used.

    ‘It costs quite a bit of mana, though. You just have to adjust it appropriately.’

    Pure force was still insufficient compared to Unknown’s reputation.

    And the person with him is Hwang Yong-gyun.

    It wouldn’t be good for him to even know my weakness.

    However, it is through this absolute stealth.

    Hwang Yong-gyun will no longer be able to ignore me.

    No, when combined with the Unknown Fear debuff.

    Rather, you will overestimate me.

    ‘If only that were possible. ‘Not only today’s work…’

    Because of that very illusion.

    This means that there is a high possibility that he will cooperate in future work as well.

    His top priority is Choi Hana and the organization.

    What if there is a special villain who shows favor to such an organization?

    It goes without saying that you cannot refuse help.

    “Two small fry. I will sort that out.”

    So, it will be Hwang Yong-gyun who kills the leader of the raiders.

    I was thinking of performing some kind of showmanship in front of him.

    Soon, my signature flame skill.

    The flame’s spell burned.

    ‘And if I use this special power I’ve been saving up for so long…’

    The fire soon began to burn with a new color.

    Then Hwang Yong-gyun’s expression immediately changed.

    ***

    Jeong Si-woo walked carefully.

    I chased after the guys who got out of the black car.

    And Jeong Si-woo, who checked the face of one of them, became nervous.

    ‘Not only small pieces, but even things with names like that?’

    There are frequent protests among underworld organizations.

    This raid is not surprising.

    But there Jeong Si-woo saw a familiar face.

    No, more precisely, I heard the sound he made.

    ‘A name like that gets involved in a raid on a low-ranking organization like this?’

    Jeong Si-woo’s hobby is collecting information about villains.

    So there was no way I was mistaken.

    Definitely a ghoul hound.

    I saw the mad dog climbing up.

    ‘The vanguard of the Crimson Teeth. ‘He’s one of the Baal Vanguard!’

    Although he was not the top executive of Crimson Teeth.

    That action group. Or Baal Vanguard, also called the Vanguard.

    Those guys were very dangerous.

    Younger than top executives.

    So, the villains are full of madness and run wild without hesitation.

    Much of the notoriety Crimson Teeth has today was created by the Baal Vanguard villains.

    ‘How did the Mad Knife guys recruit that guy?’

    Suddenly, a question arose.

    If you think about it, it wasn’t that strange.

    Even underworld gangs claim to be legal on the outside.

    After that, he was connected to the villains, and even the villains who had their identities laundered were proudly occupying a place.

    The boss of Mad Knife is also the head of a mid-sized organization.

    That ghoul hound must have been roasted and boiled appropriately.

    ‘They must have suggested one condition or another.’

    Why did Choi Hana come here?

    That Naharingdo. It might be evidence that the Underdolls are also related to the Hakko organization called Blood Jaguar.

    So that means there are talented young female members of the organization.

    You can also tempt the female gang members by offering to join them later.

    Beauty world is a common thing in the underworld.

    Anyway, it was terrible news for the Blood Jaguar.

    Ghoul Hound.

    That guy is famous for being a very cruel crazy dog.

    ‘That makes me even more curious.’

    Of course, that terrible news only occurred when there was no unknown news.

    Jeong Si-woo secretly climbed the back exterior wall of the building to avoid the guys.

    He didn’t intend to get involved in the struggle anyway.

    I was curious how Unknown would move. That’s all.

    Then, I hung on the outer wall and focused on the sounds I heard.

    ‘Unknown. It’s the sound of Lee Jun-woo’s footsteps.’

    This is something I’ve heard every day for over three years.

    I noticed it right away.

    However, Jeong Si-woo soon became astonished.

    ‘So, you completely hid the sound?’

    I confirmed that he entered an office.

    However, since then, Lee Jun-woo has completely disappeared.

    And when he heard the conversation sound, Jeong Si-woo was even more shocked.

    ‘for a moment. If you are Hwang Yong-gyun. Now I remember. ‘He’s that A-level awakened person.’

    Even Hwang Yong-gyun didn’t seem to notice Lee Jun-woo’s presence.

    This is impossible according to common sense.

    It was like a single cadet deceiving a Class A awakened person.

    But that wasn’t the only surprise.

    ‘We have to move quickly. You must see how Unknown fights against those raiders…’

    To Jeong Si-woo, the current work was more important than the midterm exam or even his father’s call.

    And the choice was right.

    After a while.

    Jeong Si-woo saw the pitch-black fire created by Unknown.

    ‘Oh, you can even use the devil’s fire?’

    The devil’s power is a special ability that cannot be used unless you make a special contract with the devil.

    As expected, Jeong Si-woo’s thoughts were correct.

    The unknown, Lee Jun-woo, was hiding his skills so completely that it was impossible to believe.

    And from the battle that soon took place, Jeong Si-woo could not take his eyes off.

    Ghoul Hound.

    That mad dog became a gentle puppy in front of Unknown.

    ***

    Meanwhile, on the third floor of the building, Choi Hana was conducting a live broadcast of Naharing.

    Actually, I couldn’t concentrate well on the broadcast.

    Lee Jun-woo was waiting for her.

    ‘I want to indulge myself right now… and go down to the cafe again.’

    But it’s already live broadcasting.

    I couldn’t reveal my unpleasant feelings in front of the viewers.

    A short broadcast of about an hour.

    So Choi Hana has content that she is confident in.

    I immediately took out full tracking in VR War World.

    “I’m sorry that today’s Naharing broadcast is short… Nahanaha~ Instead, I’ll go with a big one!”

    Naharing’s outfit was changed a bit blatantly.

    You’re not actually wearing those clothes anyway.

    It wasn’t that embarrassing.

    The background is a dreamy map appropriate for the night.

    The camera was centered on her.

    And they play some strange club-style music.

    She is ready to start dancing with confidence.

    The VR headset and tracking equipment are already worn on the body.

    ‘Strange. I feel much weirder than usual…’

    In fact, when we proceed with the so-called broth urigi content.

    I have never been very conscious of viewers or other people.

    I just dance the way I learned before with Scarlett.

    But now I felt strange.

    Naharingin himself.

    I inadvertently imagined that someone was watching her sexy dance.

    Just imagine that Lee Jun-woo is looking at her.

    Choi Hana, or rather Na Haring, moved her body to the music.

    At that moment, something from a little while ago came to mind.

    Lee Jun-woo took a piece of cake with his fork and fed it to himself.

    ‘Why… why did Lee Jun-woo do that…’

    Strangely, my body became hot.

    Thinking of Lee Jun-woo, I unconsciously put my index finger to my lips.

    It was a movement that was not normally part of the choreography.

    Then, the speed of the chat window became surprisingly fast.
