Chapter 82: Goodbye, first to be eliminated (2) Translator: miraclerifle

The rope pulled George Holten with immense strength. However, this eldest son of a noble family could not help but scream at this treatment that he could have never even imagined.

How could there be nobody to mess with him to the point that a damn rope was treating him like this?!

“Hey, let me go! Y, you weird rope thing!”

George Holten tried his best to rip the rope but this only made the rope annoyed and made it tighten its hold on George Holten.

[#$#&#&*!]

Huh? You’re going to play with me? You’re going to play with me?

It was tightening quite a bit as if it had been going easy until now. It sulked and let George go when Ju-Heon told it to stop because it looked as if George Holten was going to die.

“Damn it, why are all artifacts like this?!”

“It can't be helped. All artifacts have the basic foundation of tormenting humans.”

George was huffing but didn't care about that. What was important right now was not talking about artifacts but his sister.

“Hold on. You left Irene back there! Why did you drag me away?!”

“At least one person from the Holten family needs to see their parents being healed. I need to make sure you can’t make any excuses about what happened.”

George Holten became anxious at that statement and started to speak.

"But you saw that General! Her opponent is not normal!”

“Why are you freaking out like that? Your sister isn’t normal either.”

"What did you say?!”

George Holten who was concerned about his sister shouted in anger but Ju-Heon smiled without any malice.

It was true that she was not normal.

There were only a few monarchs who could take on the Monarch of War.

“Stop worrying for no reason. Do you know who taught her? I didn’t teach her so terribly that she'll lose to a woman like that.”

The entire city started to shake as soon as he said that and Ju-Heon smiled while looking at the messages that popped up.

[The artifact of war is attacking the city.]

[The goddess of destruction is dragging humans into the battle and starting to destroy buildings.]

That was Keira’s doing. Irene, who had been trained quite thoroughly by Ju-Heon had forced Keira to take out her artifact of war.

‘Oh my, I remember she hated to use the artifact of war because of the risk.’

Irene must have been doing even better than he imagined.

Ju-Heon and George Holten then arrived at a 105th floor penthouse as he thought that.

The Holten couple was inside as Ju-Heon mentioned.

“Mother! Father!”

However, the room was filled with the stench of rotting corpses and the couple were groaning in pain.

Ju-Heon quickly checked the couple’s condition before starting to frown.

“They’re really at their limits now.”

"What? N, no! Hurry up with that fruit!”

Ju-Heon took some of the Herb of Eternal Youth fruits out of the glass bottle before George even finished shouting. He then ruthlessly squeezed them as if he was squeezing a lemon.

Crack!

He would normally turn it into medicine first, but there was no time to do that. Ju-Heon quickly dripped the juice into the couple’s mouths.

Something amazing then started to happen.

The couple's bodies started to glow before the rotten areas covering the couple’s bodies slowly started to disappear.

Their skin was returning to normal as if they were returning to how they were prior to being sick.

George Holten's jaws dropped after seeing what happened.

“T, the injuries!”

Ju-Heon laughed thinking this was it.

The Herb of Eternal Youth was a healing artifact that returned the body to a past condition. That was how it healed any issues.

‘I just need to repeat this.’

Ju-Heon continued to squeeze more juice into the couple's mouths. He had to do that numerous times! The oddities around their body finally disappeared and the couple lifted their heavy eyelids.

The couple had finally been fully cured.

“Huh... What happened to us?”

George Holten was in awe after seeing his parents looking normal.

“Father! Mother!”

George Holten, their eldest son, started to cry profusely in a way most men their size would never do while the confused couple started to console their son. However, the situation did not permit this emotional reunion.

Boom!

There was another large rumbling and Ju-Heon got a call.

Irene was calling him.

[Mr. Ju-Heon!]

Ju-Heon laughed to tell her to relax after hearing her desperate voice.

“Your parents are safe now.”

[!]

Ju-Heon heard some crying and instantly cut her off and sternly added on.

“Save the emotions for later since Keira is still there. It is not the time to lose focus.”

[Ah, yes sir! I'm sorry!]

Irene urgently responded.

[Umm, you see, the General suddenly disappeared. Do you think she ran away?]

Ju-Heon started to frown.

He was certain that she had not escaped. The mighty Monarch of War would never suddenly run away while attacking.

There was a message saying the following as well.

[The artifact of destitution and the artifact of war are nearby.]

If the artifact was nearby but Keira escaped...

Ju-Heon debated for a moment before his eyes opened wide.

‘Wait, hold on?’

Ju-Heon started to smile after realizing something.

‘Yes, her risk must have happened!’

She was using the artifact of war quite a lot because of Irene and the risk must have come much earlier than expected. She must have turned into something weird right now.

That was why it looked as if she had disappeared or run away.

Ju-Heon who realized that laughed viciously like a hunter and responded.

"Don't worry. I’ll be there soon.”

Ju-Heon hung up the phone and quickly ran out of the hotel.

This was an amazing opportunity.

‘It is our win if her risk activated.’

That meant that he didn’t need to work his ass off to take her on as he did in the past.

Ju-Heon quickly walked through the chaotic city. He heard Irene's voice once he walked to a part of the city that was in ruins.

“Mr. Ju-Heon!”

It seemed as if Irene’s risk had not arrived yet.

“You said that Keira did not run away?”

"She just changed into something because her risk activated.”

He was certain Keira was somewhere in this wide city. He could feel a faint aura of an artifact that other people could not feel once he started to focus.

It was at that moment.

[The mastery of the Spy skill has reached its max level.]

[The spy skill has risen to B-Rank.]

Keira’s aura became even clearer as the rank rose, but...

‘She’s hiding her aura quite thoroughly.’

Even the mighty Ju-Heon could not clearly locate her yet.

‘Damn it, it's almost checkmate.’

Where is it? Where was she hiding?

It would be easier to
