Chapter 16. Cho Ryu Hyang’s Hide-and-Seek (1/2)

Chapter 16. Cho Ryu Hyang’s Hide-and-Seek

‘These little things are playing around, huh.’

The man hidden in the shadows.

Um Seung Do smirked when he listened in on the conversation between the two children.

Cho Ryu Hyang thought that Um Seung Do was sleeping, but that wasn’t it at all. Um Seung Do was a peak expert.

He managed to pick out Cho Ryu Hyang trying to sneak out, and followed the boy.

When he tried to leave quietly, seeing that the boy was just resting outside, he noticed Neng Ha Young approaching from behind. That’s why he was hiding here, looking at the two.

He was looking at the two children trying to look like a pair of adults, since it was quite cute to him. But then, all of a sudden, the two began to talk about the secrets the church had.

King Shura 16

‘Should I teach a lesson to these kids now?’

Um Seung Do thought carefully.

He could do exactly that to Cho Ryu Hyang, but for Neng Ha Young, acting violently towards her was quite dangerous.

Her background was the problem.

Then what should he do?

While Um Seung Do was thinking about such things, the conversation between the two children kept progressing.

“I had something that I was curious about in the martial world for quite a while now.”

“What is it? If this big sis knows it, I’ll tell you all about it.”

Before Cho Ryu Hyang could even open his mouth, Um Seung Do intervened.

[Don’t try anything dangerous like that. The main church isn’t as easy to take on as you might think.]

Cho Ryu Hyang froze when he heard Um Seung Do’s voice.

His face ashened as if he was a little prankster who just got caught by his parents. His back was full of sweat.

‘He was awake?’

He forgot about the fact that he was in the same boat as one of the members in the Heavenly Demon Church.

The organization strong enough to turn the martial world into a sea of blood. It would not be wise to talk about their secrets when on the same boat as them.

After thinking that, Cho Ryu Hyang closed his mouth.

“What is it?”

“…….I almost made a mistake.”

Cho Ryu Hyang smiled bitterly.

When he thought about Um Seung Do listening to them from somewhere, he shivered.

‘He was listening from the start?’

He felt a little annoyed when he felt that he was being watched.

When Neng Ha Young saw Cho Ryu Hyang’s annoyed expression, she quickly responded.

“There’s…… someone here?”

“…….”

Neng Ha Young began to observe her surroundings.

‘There’s nothing nearby.’

Cho Ryu Hyang, who didn’t even know martial arts, noticed something when she didn’t?

Neng Ha Young wrinkled her eyebrows, and extended her senses as far as she could. But trying to find Um Seung Do with her level of skill was near impossible.

“Come out.”

Um Seung Do didn’t have any intention of doing so.

‘You think I’m crazy? Why’d I come out?’

He’d only look bad when he came out after looking at two kids.

Even though he revealed his presence to Cho Ryu Hyang, he wasn’t keen on doing the same thing to Neng Ha Young.

Thinking that, Um Seung Do didn’t reveal his presence.

He concealed it even more.

He brought out his technique to his limit.

‘He’s not even considering revealing himself, huh?’

Cho Ryu Hyang got a little annoyed when Um Seung Do didn’t reveal himself even after a long time.

He was originally going to let it pass, since this whole thing was his fault, after all.

But to think that the man would just stay hidden, when his existence was already exposed. Was he not mocking them? When Cho Ryu Hyang thought that, he felt quite annoyed.

He didn’t want to leave the man be.

He wanted to do something to the man.

‘Is there a way…….’

At this point, this was a matter of pride.

After thinking something for a while, Cho Ryu Hyang caught his breath.

Didn’t he have a secret weapon, something that other people didn’t have?

He didn’t know if it would work in this situation, but it was worth trying.

“You’re looking down on me, aren’t you?”

When Neng Ha Young, who still couldn’t detect Um Seung Do’s presence, bit her lower lip in annoyance, Cho Ryu Hyang came up to her.

“Wait here.”

“Why?”

“Just watch.”

“What are you going to do?”

Cho Ryu Hyang began walking without replying.

He caught his breath.

The Faultless View of The World.

He used that.

Um Seung Do was currently hidden in the darkness, and was smirking at the children.

‘You wouldn’t ever be able to find me.’

It was quite amusing to see two children do this.

Seeing them get angry, and seeing them trying to find him was funny.

But that’s where that all ends.

His stealth technique is on the peak. Even in the Heavenly Demon Church, there aren’t many that can see through his stealth technique.

In front of Um Seung Do, the attempts the children made to look for him just seemed like child’s play.

In short, it was pointless. Um Seung Do thought that he was playing a hide-and-seek game where he definitely couldn’t lose.

But then…….

‘Ah?’

Um Seung Do tilted his head a bit.

That was because Cho Ryu Hyang began to walk right towards him.

‘Probably a coincidence.’

His technique was good enough to let him go unnoticed right in front of others.

But…….

Grab.

“You’re going a little too far.”

“……..”

Um Seung Do stared down at Cho Ryu Hyang with a dumb face.

He didn’t even get cautious when the boy came up right next to him. A competition with a child who didn’t even know martial arts seemed ridiculous, after all.

But this arrogant child came right up to him and grabbed onto him.

How?

Cho Ryu Hyang looked at the man’s face, and then nodded.

He thought that since he, too, mocked the man, they were even.

Right then.

Crack–

Cho Ryu Hyang couldn’t breath anymore.

Um Seung Do grabbed onto Cho Ryu Hyang’s collars, and held the boy up in the air.

Um Sung Do did this so fast, that Cho Ryu Hyang’s top clothing was actually about to be ripped off.

“You……., what are you?”

Right now, Um Seung Do’s face resembled that of a demon’s.

Not only did he have a face of an adult who got angry over a game with a child, he was also using violence.

“Talk, kid. Or you die.”

The polite man that Um Seung Do was before was gone.

A martial artist’s pride. That pride of his was injured, and therefore his animal instinct clawed outside. In his hands, Cho Ryu Hyang was nothing but a helpless child.

While Cho Ryu Hyang was trying to breath.

“You should stop here. He’s going to die.”

Neng Ha Young came up to the man, and glared at him.

She couldn’t think at all before because she was astonished that Cho Ryu Hyang managed to find Um Seung Do. But when Um Seung Do grabbed onto the boy’s collars, Neng Ha Young came back to her senses.

“Don’t interfere, girl. Unless you want to die.”

“I can’t do that.”

When she stomped the ground after finishing her sentence, 4 men appeared right beside her, like a ghost. They were the bodyguards that came with Neng Ha Young.

“Ma’am.”
