63 – The right person has arrived

‘It worked.’

A high-risk attack method that the original Kang So-young would never choose. It was properly eaten by the doppelganger who was careless.

“This year… !”

A doppelganger who barely manages to keep her body leaning backwards with her face distorted in pain.

However, since she was still in an incomplete posture, it was too much to counter Kang So-young’s attack right away or counterattack.

Kang So-young noticed this, and without much movement, ran head-on and took one of her steps towards her doppelgänger.

She slammed her fist into her face, simultaneously using her lower body strength and the recoil of her back to power her up.

“Keugh.”

At that moment, her body recoiled in pain from her earlier injury, but she couldn’t stop her outstretched hand.

She and she put her fist right in the face she looked just like herself but she didn’t want to admit.

Peruk.

Her voice echoed so loud that Kang So-young could even hear it in her ears, and the feeling of having hit it right lingered in her hand.

As if to prove that, the doppelgänger that had been hit rose slightly in the air, then fell helplessly to the ground at the shock without even being able to scream.

And in the calm atmosphere, as if announcing the end of the battle, only the sound of the waves softly reached Soyoung Kang’s ears.

“Did I win… ?”

As soon as she squeezed out the last of her strength, her tension was relieved. The pain from the injury and the aftermath of extreme concentration brought her a sense of fatigue.

And then, the thought that she had overcome herself filled her heart with an unknown feeling of satisfaction.

Although it was forced to fight, the result was very satisfactory.

‘But what can I do? Would it be better to deal with it right away, or should I interrogate him by restraining him?’

Kang So-young was worried because she was not a professional hunter, so she didn’t know how to deal with this situation.

Normally, it would have been an unconditional kill, but since it was a monster that could communicate, there was a possibility of obtaining information, so it was a waste to deal with it hastily.

After a brief thought, Kang So-yeong decided to keep her doppelganger alive, but then get rid of it, thinking that if she ran away, she would be in greater danger.

She bent down and held the dagger ‘Yeoubi’ stuck in her sand in her hand again.

She then walked towards her lying doppelgänger, losing her mind.

When she passed out and didn’t make any expression, she was a doppelgänger with the same face as when she fell asleep with Kang So-young.

It was strange for her to put the dagger to the neck of such a doppelganger, but she didn’t hesitate.

She empathized with the target and knew enough from her own experience and from the moment she learned from her master that if she hesitated, she would die.

As she always did, Kang So-yeong climbed on top of her doppelgänger and tried to stab her with a dagger at the nape of her neck to prepare herself for the unexpected.

But her purple dagger cut through her doppelganger’s nape before it even touched the nape of her doppelgänger’s neck, and she rather felt a cold blade digging into her own back.

“Keuk, how is it? I used [Shadow] To give it a twist like you.”

Turning her head, the doppelgänger appeared behind her and was looking at Kang So-young with a fishy smile.

“Oops!”

And Kang So-young bit her lip at the pain of the blade piercing her body vividly, but her painful sound leaked out.

“Does it hurt a lot? But you hurt me too, didn’t you? He acted until he was blown away.”

Kang So-yeong only realized that. She managed to dodge very briefly as she cowered in pain, and while she didn’t dodge completely, she didn’t become such a lethal attack.

She had no doubts. With her own body vision, reflexes, and speed, it was a story that was quite possible.

The only division was that she was delighted and deceived, knowing nothing of her doppelgänger.

“Well then, how can I bully you?”

The doppelganger was kicked and kicked down.

After receiving the fatal blow, Kang So-young rolled on her floor powerlessly, and she didn’t even have the strength to fight back.

The doppelgänger inflicted pain by trampling here and there on his body as if seeking revenge.

‘Lady….’

Even with the bruises and scars from her kicks, Kang So-young remembered her Choi Su-jeong.

I wasn’t too afraid to die. Because once she almost died and she was saved.

And walking a tightrope between her life and death has been a daily routine since she was born.

But when she thought of her Choi Su-jeong, who would be sad when she died, and the image she had to carry so many burdens alone, she couldn’t help but feel sorry for her.

‘Euna sister… ‘

Even right before her death, she was a kind person who kept apologizing for taking care of Choi Su-jeong and saying she was sorry even though she hadn’t done anything wrong.

Kang So-yeong couldn’t keep her promise to her and felt that she would follow her, and her heart felt tight and her heart ached.

“This b*tch is really strong. Didn’t you make a sound after making a sound then?”

A doppelganger looking at Kang So-young with a rather angry face.

“Come on, I don’t think this much is anything. Then I’ll kill you right away.”

When her doppelgänger reached out and pulled out the dagger stuck in her back, her body trembled, but Kang So-yeong still endured the screams.

The doppelgänger climbed on top of Kang So-young and completely subdued her, then grabbed the dagger with both of her hands.

The dagger, which emits purple light in the moonlight, was fixed near Kang So-yeong’s forehead.

But she still doesn’t respond. Kang So-yeong coldly looks at her doppelgänger, frowning in front of her imminent death.

The doppelganger grew even more angry at that appearance.

“Why not be like the other humans!”

Like the humans who were defeated by him, he did not beg for his life mercilessly or pour out curses filled with malice.

A dignified look that says just do it if you want to.

Obviously, if a while ago I felt like a human being who responded to provocations, now I just watched without fear like a prophet who realized all the truth.

‘Annoying….’

As a doppelganger, it wasn’t fun at all. It was good to see a human being destroyed by succumbing to pain and fear.

However, although Kang So-young shows a sad expression, she is not broken at all.

Rather, she showed an attitude of accepting it at any time, as if she had already been prepared for her death.

It was the first time. She saw Kang So-young’s memories to some extent, and she believed that someone with such a past and pain could destroy them enough because she had already experienced a lot.

However, Kang So-yeong was a toy that could not be played with freely. She was very dissatisfied. She is a human that shouldn’t exist when it comes to her doppelgänger.

So I decided to quickly dispose of this unpleasant person.

“Die!”

The doppelganger let out a malicious voice and thrust the dagger down with all his might.

“What… what?”

Just before the blade of the dagger was driven into Kang So-young’s eyebrows as he closed his eyes, the doppelgänger felt as if someone was holding his hand.

“Hu, good luck. It’s not too late.”

The doppelgänger’s eyes saw a man stretching his hands toward him, breathing so hard that his shoulders moved.

‘It barely stopped.’

I stopped a woman who looked exactly like Kang So-young, who was about to use [Psychokinesis] To strike the final blow.

Clearly, her appearance was the same as Kang So-young’s, but the mana that flowed from her body, from the flesh, was not the Kang So-young I knew.

Then it means that the person lying on the floor with injuries is real.

“Awesome. I can’t solve this!”

A fake screaming at me while grinding my teeth. It feels fresh because it is a face that cannot be seen in the original Kang So-young.

“I can’t do that.”

With that said, I ran and kicked the fake face.

A fake figure that evaporates like smoke right before being attacked and then disappears.

“What is it, it looks like you can use Secretary Kang’s characteristics too?”

But since it was a situation so familiar to me during hell training, of course, without a second’s hesitation, I turned her body in the direction of my shadow and punched her.

“No?”

Thinking he was aiming for a loophole, the fake came to stab him with a dagger, but he looked surprised as if he was rather embarrassed, and in the meantime, he thrust his fist into his abdomen.

“Ugh.”

As his body bent forward in pain and leaned forward, he reached out his fist again toward his chin.

But perhaps because she was as agile as Kang So-yeong, the attack ended just by lightly brushing her chin.

It was the moment to counterattack, but the fake quickly jumped back and rather distanced itself from me.

“Ugh. Wonwoo…. You are here.”

Unlike usual, Kang So-young, who was in a state of disrepair, called me by raising only her upper body.

“Sorry for being late.”

Small cuts and bruises here and there on Kang So-yeong’s body looked okay, but the scars on her back as if she had been stabbed by her sword continued to bleed, and she seemed to need first aid.

After taking off the thin coat she was wearing and tearing it in half, she handed it to her Kang So-young and said.

“Please use this instead of a bandage. I want to do it, but I can’t because of that fake staring at me.”

Kang So-young nodded her head, then she looked at me and said.

“That’s not a person… It’s a monster. Do you know Wonwoo’s doppelganger… ?”

At Soyoung Kang’s words, everyone understood the current situation. Even the reason why Kang So-young, who is similar to her S-class, was beaten to the point of being so messed up.

“How long has it been since you transformed?”

“It’s about an hour or so now.”

“Then there is still plenty of time left.”

It takes a day for a doppelganger to become someone else. However, it seems that the situation is not unfavorable to me because it has not been changed for a while.

“Did you call Sujeong?”

“No, because Wonwoo is the best person to deal with the doppelganger who turned into me….”

It is true that I am much better than Soo-jung in this area, but hearing that directly from Kang So-young feels new.

It feels like a son-in-law who has been recognized by his father-in-law. Unlike the serious situation, I felt proud.

“What is it? It wasn’t Choi Soo-jeong who sang it, it was Lee Won-woo?”

“What, is there a problem?”

The doppelganger looked confused and asked back.

And after a while, the doppelganger started laughing out loud.

“Ha ha ha! Kang So-yeong: You’re saying you’ll call someone who’s lower level than you and beat me? To protect Choi Soo-jung, you’re just adding one more victim!”

Anyway, this seems to be openly ignoring me. It’s a familiar treatment, but it doesn’t feel good to be ignored even by monsters.

I was respected even by vampires, who are monsters from aristocrats.

Kang So-young, who was next to me while I was in a bad mood, said to her doppelganger with a faint smile even though she was sick.

“He is someone who can hit you better than the lady. If you’re curious, try rummaging through my memory.”

“Ha, that is absurd. Do you think a lie like that would work for me?”

At the same time, the doppelganger staring at me. He tapped his temple and seemed to think of something.
