I Became the Academy's Kibitz Villain [part 1]

Chapter 94: The Dignity Of Rank S (2)

At that moment, on the outskirts of Samcheok, Gangwon Province.

Thud-thud-thud-thud!

The hail of bullets didn't stop.

Already, several cars had turned into scrap metal under the concentrated gunfire, and red traces flowed out in the sticky engine oil.

"Is, is it alright?"

"Yes. Of course. We are safe."

"No, I mean my granddaughter!"

Desmond pointed in the direction where one car had disappeared.

It was already out of sight, with only skid marks on the ground and Hwalbindang thugs chasing after it visible.

"Yes. She's safer than you, Chairman. The agent attached to her is a specialist."

"Who the hell is that!"

"It's the Goblin."

"......."

At Gunggi's words, Desmond's eyes widened momentarily, and then he placed his hand over his heart and heaved a deep sigh of relief.

"Haaaa...."

"So, you feel relieved when you hear it's the Goblin?"

"If you're lying, I'll sue you. Didn't you say there's no Goblin on this mission?"

"I caught him playing around in Samcheok at dawn. Do you know how much I had to wheedle to ask for his support even though it wasn't his mission?"

Gunggi chuckled as she returned fire from the barricade made by the car.

"Still, as a special service to you, Chairman, I won't charge you for hiring the Goblin."

"Th, thank you...."

"But we can't be responsible for other cases, okay?"

"Other cases...?"

"Yes. As always, when the Goblin is with a female ability user... you know what happens, right?"

"...Gasp!"

Chairman Desmond covered his mouth with his hand.

"Sur, surely the Goblin won't try to seduce my granddaughter?!"

"The opposite, actually. If he doesn't transform, it should be fine, but if he transforms and tries to save people, she will definitely fall for him."

"...Huh!"

At Gunggi's matter-of-fact statement, Chairman Desmond clenched his fist and thumped his chest.

"If I had known it was the Goblin...!"

"Why? Because you didn't send him with your granddaughter?"

"No, I should have gotten his autograph."

"...I see."

At the old man's innocent gaze, Gunggi chuckled dryly.

She wondered if this old man knew.

While the Goblin would protect his granddaughter, he also planned to eliminate the genetic legacy of the Armored Taejo she carried.

"But... is it alright to keep going like this? I mean us."

"Us? Well... it looks like the problem solver will be here soon."

"Problem solver?"

"Yes. Here they come."

Gunggi pointed to the southern sky.

"Handling such incidents is a hero's job."

Vroom───!
