Chapter 176
What a scene that looks like something out of a horror movie.
In the midst of the strangeness, Lee Pyeong-hwa briefly forgot the urgency of the situation and became dazed.
‘Nam Seong-hee... was it?’
He didn’t know much, but the person who had just appeared and stabbed Lee Un-gyeol to death before vanishing was the same one. According to Jeong Da-on’s story, she was also said to be Lee Un-gyeol’s mother.
In Lee Pyeong-hwa’s understanding, such actions were unthinkable.
Lee Pyeong-hwa gripped the sword in his hand tighter.
Though cold sweat ran down his back, he made an effort not to show it.
‘She seemed to have some connection to Jeong Da-on.’
Jeong Da-on hadn’t explained the situation in detail, but Lee Pyeong-hwa wasn’t a fool. He had some guesses based on what he knew.
Having been swept up in unexpected events more than once due to being entangled with the S-rank Hunter Jeong Da-on, this woman was probably another one of those situations.
‘Like a swarm of flies, how tiresome.’
If Nam Seong-hee had known how she was being treated like a nuisance by this young kid, she would probably have been enraged.
