Living in a World That Is Destined for Destruction

＜ Episode 36 ＞

The colorful neon signs seduce passers-by and the night streets of Luna, where desires harmonize, are full of energy today.

The night in Area 53, where drunken passers-by and pickpockets targeting them, prostitutes who fuel their desires and pimps who glisten their eyes behind them, gamblers and drug dealers, is so splendid that anyone who arrives here will will be swept away by

But there is always darkness where there is light.

The night in Area 53 can’t be called light, but that’s why the darkness covered by the light is so thick.

Puck!

“Ouch!”

The desolate space without any special furniture did not interfere with the echo of the sound, and even a small noise penetrated into the ears like a loud sound.

Fuck!

“Ah!”

The power emitted by the body made of reinforced alloy was enough to shatter even a concrete wall, and in fact, the face of the man who had been hit by that fist turned bloody and screamed, but the miasma in his eyes did not change at all.

“hahahaha! Wow! Kuck!”

The sight of his whole body trembling as he gushed out a thick liquid mixed with blood, oil, and saliva from his mouth being blown open was enough to arouse sympathy, but the men surrounding him did not change their expression at all.

The body of the naked man tied to a chair was full of torture marks.

There were no intact places on his fingers and toes, and the scars all over his body and the shattered prosthetic eye told him that he had been through some pretty terrible things.

“You’re tough.”

“… Khehehehe.”

“Mmm!”

Cracks appeared on the faces of the men, who had been expressionless like stone statues, as they watched the man with his battered body dripping poison.

Most of the people who flow into the underworld are trash.

Trash that is mentally vulnerable and succumbs to the slightest physical pain.

However, even among such garbage, there are people who show extraordinary appearances, and such people are qualified to challenge the path to the top of the underworld.

And in the eyes of the men, the man tied up in front of them seemed well-deserved.

“Kuh! Forget about hearing anything out of my mouth anyway. How about you do it in moderation too? Isn’t this enough to save face?”

Perhaps sensing a change in the atmosphere, the man who suppressed the pain with a smile spoke quietly, and agitation began to spread.

In an underworld where trash gathers, the most necessary things are courage, bravado, and the willingness to get your hands dirty, and a man with such things naturally acquires dignity.

Even though he was captured and tortured, the man had the dignity of an underworld, and the trash began to be shaken by that dignity.

‘···great!’

If you lead the atmosphere like this, it is possible to survive in this place.

If things went well, he might get new men.

Anyway, I’ve been through this kind of crisis countless times, and since I’ve survived so far, it was clear that I could survive right now.

At that time, a fishy smile formed on the man’s lips and words full of firm will were about to flow out.

hey hey

The iron door, which had not been oiled at all, opened with the sound of digging through the eardrums.

There was only minimal light, so everyone frowned at the backlight coming in from outside the door, and someone appeared through the bright light.

“Who are you!”

Clap! Clap! Clap!

The men’s hands were extremely swift, and each drew his weapon and aimed at the man immersed in the light, but he did not stop at all and moved slowly.

Giing.

The diaphragm of the artificial eyeball was adjusted, and the light entering the field of view was adjusted and focused to clearly capture the figure of the man surrounded by light.

“···ah!”

“Are you here!”

The men who drew their weapons as quickly as they took them out bent down in unison, and the face of the man tied to the chair stiffened.

profit.

After biting off a tobacco, the man’s fingers seemed to emit a strange light, but soon they caught fire, and not only the man but also the men around him shook their shoulders and were nervous.

“after.”

White smoke drifted out, and the figure of a man was revealed through the smoke he exhaled.

A slightly sharp impression, a face full of tiredness, and a suit that wrapped around a tall body didn’t fit perfectly, and the trench coat on top of it matched well, so at first glance, he looked like a salaryman.

‘···Damn it!’

But the man tied up couldn’t let go of his tension.

Eye.

There was no emotion in his dry eyes, so the man knew at once that this man was not an ordinary person.

It was a gaze that saw people as objects, and the man was well aware of how scary those who had this kind of gaze were.

‘···it’s okay!’

A man appeared who was different from the trash around him, but the man believed in his will.

I ate my heart firmly with the belief that this man would eventually give up without being able to open his mouth.

widely.

A chair was placed and the man sat down and crossed his legs as if it were natural.

Chick.

The man tossed the finished cigarette on the floor and rubbed it with his foot, his mouth opening and a dry voice coming out.

“Your mouth is heavy?”

“···yes.”

I wanted to laugh at him, but the man’s strange atmosphere and intimidation made him nervous.

“Go easy. I’ll let you go if you answer my questions honestly. I will take care of your wounds to some extent.”

“… Kick! Do you think you’re going to fall for those words now!”

Sneering and shouting erupted from the man’s mouth, but the man’s expression did not change much.

“I don’t know who you are, but you will never open my mouth! No matter what happens, I will not betray the organization!”

The strong spirited shout made the surrounding gang members shake, but the man simply nodded lightly.

“Right.”

The man who looked at the angry man opened his mouth with a dry expression.

“Well, if it was going easily, there would be no need to call me. hey.”

“···Yes.”

A gang member with a nervous expression at the man’s voice brought several items from the corner of the room.

thud!

A small bathtub full of water.

Cheeik!

A gas torch that emits blue flames.

Jjarararak!

Even a battery that supplies electricity that dances wildly between iron rods.

“···no way!”

The man’s face, which had been filled with determination, began to turn pale as the objects appeared one after another, and the man slowly stood up from his chair and took off his coat and outerwear and handed them to the organizers.

The members of the organization who were watching such a man laughed viciously, and the man’s face turned white because he was pale after realizing the meaning of the laugh.

“You see me.”

The eyes of the man and the man met, and a terrified voice flowed from the man’s mouth, which looked like a corpse.

“Confession John Doe…”

“It’s not a nickname I like very much, though.”

Cheeik!

John rolled up his sleeves as he looked at the torch shining blue and emitting strong light and heat alone in a room where he had to rely on a small light.

“I don’t have time, so let’s finish quickly.”

“ruler! for a moment! mind! I’ll tell you…!”

“Let’s talk about it a little later.”

One of the gang members roughly covered the man’s face with a towel, and John took a step forward.

“eww! Aww!”

Suppressed screams that could not escape from being pressed by the towel began to echo through the room.

“It was hard. zone.”

Miller, who always sticks to a decent suit, greeted John with a bright smile, but John couldn’t smile back.

Torture is the act of cutting one’s own heart as well as the opponent.

No matter how skilled he is, he couldn’t help the stress that came from it.

“yes.”

“You worked hard.”

As John, with a tired expression on his face, threw himself into the chair, Ekaterina, who had noticed, rushed over and handed John orange juice.

John, who drank a moderately cold juice at once, looked at Ekaterina with an expression that he would live a little longer and said.

“thanks.”

“lol.”

Ekaterina’s friendly smile now felt like a child of her age, and John was happy for it, but Miller stuck his tongue out.

It is only in front of John that Ekaterina, who has started doing chores at John’s request, shows such an appearance.

When John wasn’t around, Ekaterina was a creepy child who handled tasks mechanically with an expressionless face, to the point where even her gorgeous beauty seemed unnatural.

‘What. It doesn’t matter because I’m good at my job.’

At first, she thought it would be a headache to take care of a child, but Ekaterina’s ability was excellent, and the girl was already in charge of a pivot in Miller’s office, so she thought that the minor inconvenience was worth it.

John’s gaze landed on Ekaterina’s left arm as she fluttered around holding the empty cup.

From the outside, it didn’t show much, but there was an arm with artificial skin, and John’s eyes narrowed a little as he stared at it.

The organ maker’s technique was so excellent that it reached the point of restoring the body, but Ekaterina really wanted an implant.

It’s not an ordinary implant, but a special implant just for her.

Thanks to this, he had to invest most of Ivan’s enormous wealth that Igor had taken care of, but Catherine was very satisfied with the result, so John thought there was nothing he could do about it.

It’s just that the extraordinary girl has a vicious arm, so I’m a little worried about the future.

Shaking his head, John looked at Miller and opened his mouth.

“Stop doing this in the future.”

“Isn’t the return on time the most impressive? Confession John.”

“Pick it up.”

Looking at Miller’s twirling face, John frowned and buried himself on the sofa with his arms crossed.

After the incident with Ivan last time, John’s reputation as a fixer skyrocketed.

There are many solvers on this floor, but it is when you complete a request from a company that you start to make your name known as a solver in earnest.

No matter how excellent the reputation is in the underworld or Luna’s shadow, it cannot be compared to a company.

Although it is small, John’s reputation for neatly solving the business of the organ maker, which is expanding its business, has spread widely, and Tyrone and Kurak, who can be said to be the same solver, have no differences, so it is strange that John’s name is known. It wasn’t.

but.

It was a bit problematic that the most impressive scene John showed in the process of solving Ivan’s affairs was torture.

The scene was so impressive that an official from Organmaker said it was a new inspiration, and members of the now renamed Borkov Mafia shuddered just hearing John’s name.

Even Tyrone and Kurak, who had gone through a lot of prenatal battles, looked embarrassed when they heard John’s name.

John, who is not negligent in contracts, faithfully responded to the requests of such customers, and at some point, John was nicknamed the confessional.

With the fear of having to confess all of one’s sins without reserve and begging for mercy.
