Volume 7 / Chapter 200

Being able to take mutants like that on 3 against 1 is proof of getting close to level 9. Not even Red Eye can do that. Any combination of 2 to 1 is doable excluding Vanessa, but 3 to 1 is too much. Red Eye wins if it is a combination of Odelia and Benukiz, and a close fight if a Narsiel combination.
Cha Jun Sung as a Perfection is stronger than Red Eye. He lacks 2% due to an absence of various items, but he exceeds level 8 in pure combat ability. The power he has is between level 8 and 9.
Comparing Red Eye and Cha Jun Sung’s combat ability, this situation now when he cannot find Odelia is welcome. The problem is that Two Faced Vanessa will be in that fight where he can face all of the sisters. It is the worst combination since they are the 2 strongest.
“Vanessa, Vanessa.”
After Cha Jun Sung hunted 3 of the 4 sisters and prepared for his raid against Evil Queen in the virtual, he had looked for information on Vanessa.
There was not much, and he was only able to find snippets.
[Of the 3 males and 4 females born from Evil Queen and Bon Load, Vanessa is the only half blood with characteristics of both level 9s.]
The daughters have Evil Queen’s characteristics and the sons have Bon Load’s, but Vanessa alone inherited both.
So she has another nickname in addition to Two Faced – Half Blood. She would rank level 8 with just one but if she has genes of two that are strong, there is no way to know who will win until they face off.
Much less with Narsiel, it is a good opportunity but one that feels like it should be avoided.
[04:25:12]
“Ugh! Just one should come, why are both of them coming at the same time?”
Cha Jun Sung decided to back off. It is a waste, but he will get another chance.
[Oh, well.]
“What now? Will you stop surprising me?”
Odin did not answer Cha Jun Sung’s question, and pulled up a video from the Universe Eye like when he discovered Narsiel and Vanessa.
“Huh?”
[Keep watching. I think you can make your final decision after watching this.]
The video that Odin pulled up is from the Universe Eye in Austin. A force level of Lifers is moving somewhere.
Cha Jun Sung did not complain, and just watched. Odin can see all of Austin like it is the back of his hand. It means he knows the result of these words.
“Could that be.”
The screen brightens. More precisely, it can be mistaken that the background of the environment on screen has become red.
“Path of Blood.”
Odelia is obsessively compulsive and makes her entire home red. The hair that grows all over her body becomes a brush and the pocket that holds the money she got through torture becomes paint. That is how she paints.
In Cha Jun Sung’s eyes, that is Path of Blood, the way to Odelia’s home.
The fact that this path came out means that Odelia is in Austin or it is a trace of her having been here. She does not stay in one place. She goes around in search of subjects for torture.
“Is the final decision… that Odelia’s in Austin? What! Then that means Narsiel and Vanessa are coming to see their sister. It’s a scam!”
It is not 2 against 1. It might become 3 to 1 like this. No matter how comparatively weak Odelia is, she is a level 8. She has a blow in her own way.
[It’s okay. There’s time left, so you can make the decision later.]
Cha Jun Sung calmed down and focused on the video.
It is as Odin said. There are still 4 hours left until they get here.
He can look at everything and then make his decision. Lifers arrive at the Path of Blood and are taken aback. The environment has changed and the atmosphere has grown dark. They cannot figure out what has happened.
Boom!
“Odelia.”
Red Spider, Princess of Fresh Blood Odelia jumped out from among buildings. These mysterious Lifers had walked into hell on their own.
Cha Jun Sung considered whether he should help or not, and gave up in the end.
They are at least 25km away. He cannot help them even if he runs to them now. Even if they are lucky and he is able to rescue them, Cha Jun Sung is not in a good situation either.
He could be sandwiched by Narsiel and Vanessa while fighting Odelia. He cannot risk their own lives and help them.
When we get involved, we do so by volition. Others are not subjects of consideration.
“If Austin is Odelia’s home, it should have been separated as a danger zone. Why are other Lifers here? Are they going to say it’s another mission error?”
[No, it is not. Please pay attention to that man.]
Wiing!
The Universe Eye focuses on a Lifer who does not look particularly different. But when he approached Odelia, he moved behind her.
What is this? What is this situation?
Cha Jun Sung blinks.
[I backtracked their route and they trickled down from the north. This is a danger zone, but north is a normal mission area.]
There is no Universe Eye installed in the north. That is why it was guessed that it is Austin, but that Lifer led the force.
“Ha! Is it a lure? Is he presenting Lifers to Odelia or something?”
[It seems so, though I cannot tell why.]
Does he have a deal?
Cha Jun Sung rages inside. There are things that you can do and things that you can’t. Those actions are worse than murder.
“How about Narsiel and Vanessa?”
[They are coming. Their estimated time of arrival has not changed.]
The speed is constant. Cha Jun Sung brought up the best and worst case scenarios. He has 4 hours of time. The best case is that he kills Odelia within that time and runs away. The worst is that he is unable to kill her and gets caught.
“Damn it. What’s there to think about.”
Cha Jun Sung stood up. The amount of time he has is finite.
As time shortens, the width for activity grows more and more narrow.
The situation grew disadvantageous for him even while he is thinking now.
He needs to move quickly if he is to have any odds of getting what he wants.
“We’ll be able to get away from here within 4 hours, no 3, right?”
Considering error, he needs to leave 1 hour of time. No matter how weak Odelia is, she is a level 8. It is hard to kill her within a matter of hours.
[Comparing Lifer Cha Jun Sung and a weak one’s combat abilities, there is plenty possibility. As long as external variables are not applied.]
“That’s fine.”
Bang!
Cha Jun Sung steps off of the terrace connected to the living room, and jumped into the air.
It is 5 hours.
Faster is better. He will kill Odelia and get out of this place.
***
25km distance. It is said that people can go 4km if they walk for 1 hour, which means it should take more than 5 hours for that distance.
It did not even take 25 minutes for Cha Jun Sung to go that distance.
The Universe Eye marked the route with the shortest distance for him on the electronic map. He arrived quickly because he flew and there was no reason for him to go off route.
Cha Jun Sung decreased his booster’s output and landed on a building with dozens of floors. Then he made sure not to make a sound as he went closer to Odelia.
Once he reached a certain distance, the disgusting scent of blood tickled his senses. He knows why this is because of the Universe Eye. He can’t help but curse. Most of the Lifers became invalids in that short time of 20 minutes.
They had been disabled so that they could not rebel or run away. Level 8 Odelia might as well be the Grim Reaper to those level C Lifers.
Odelia lifts a Lifer into the air by the leg and cuts off his arms. A hair that is as thin as thread goes through his battle suit.
“Hee hee! This is great!”
“Crazy bitch.”
Cha Jun Sung curses Odelia while he is hiding. The things she does is the same as she did in the virtual version. This bitch isn’t normal. Even the word ‘bitch’ isn’t enough for her.
[04:01:05]
Odelia doesn’t realize that Cha Jun Sung is there even though he has gotten so close to her he is only 50m away. His battle suit is great, but she is also distracted by the torture.
“I’ll kill her with maximum output.”
It’s a time attack anyway. He won’t be exploring or anything, so there is no reason to save his strength while fighting. 3 hours isn’t enough time in taking on a level 8.
[Battlecore, Overbooster 100% deployed.]
[Full combat function, Overmode activated with overlap of the battlecore and Overbooster! 8 hours until engine overheat, energy recovery rate 50% control!]
It is just in case. If he cannot avoid meeting Narsiel and Vanessa, he needs to have killed Odelia at the least. Divide and conquer.
