    Episode 168

    The old man’s eyebrows twitched at the word “bloodsucker.”

    “Do you know me?”

    Zeke said with a smirk.

    “Yes I know very well.”

    Anyone who knew the name the old man used during his outlaw days is already dead.

    After sorting out his past the Bloodthirsty One hid his identity and lived in secrecy running a small organization in Argos Harlem.

    But then out of nowhere a person who knew his past appeared.

    “Who are you?”

    The bloodthirsty man glared at Zeke with eyes that seemed to be filled with murder.

    Frank stuck between the two rolled his eyes here and there.

    Zeke slowly approached the bloodsucker and opened his mouth.

    “I was worried that you might notice and run away but luckily for you that’s not the case.”

    Zeke had a bad relationship with the demon in front of him in his past life.

    Because the organization that sold him into slavery in the South was none other than the organization of bloodthirsty men.

    Later when Zeke worked as McCain’s hitman and disbanded the organization he returned to the central continent. He tracked down all the Argos organizations that had sold him out.

    Among them the one who had been managing the guerrilla organizations and trafficking people for the longest time was this old man.

    A person who used to act as an outlaw under the name of Bloodthirsty but after killing all those who knew his true identity and going into hiding he is now spending the rest of his life here.

    Zeke caught this bloodthirsty man in his past life and learned that he had connections to the middle-man organization run by the Nostra Family.

    At that time I had just dealt with the bloodthirsty ones and let go before things got too big but now I needed to find a connection with the Nostra Family so I came back to him.

    Besides he was lucky enough to be caught by the Bloodthirsty in one go. Zeke felt secretly pleased.

    Zeke took the dagger out of his bosom and placed it on the desk.

    The bloodthirsty man instinctively felt that the young man in front of him was someone more powerful than he could handle.

    He opened his mouth slowly.

    “What do you want?”

    Zeke said as he looked at the bloodsucker.

    “Nostra Family.”

    At those words Frank who was next to her rolled his eyes even busier.

    The vampire quirked an eyebrow and opened the drawer.

    Then he took out a bundle of files and placed them in front of Zig.

    “I have no direct relationship with you. I just occasionally receive work from above and process it. The relevant materials are here so take whatever you need.”

    He was a bloodthirsty man who understood the situation professionally and did not engage in unnecessary resistance.

    Zig opened the file and scanned its contents.

    He said immediately throwing all the files on the floor.

    “I want to know how to contact the middle distribution network.”

    “Would the snobbish Nostra family be willing to deal with a hole-in-the-wall like me? The people I know are just sloppy thugs. I don’t know about the people above them.”

    At those words Zeke picked up the dagger he had placed on the table and stabbed the back of the demon’s hand.

    Kwajik!

    The dagger pierced the back of his hand but the vampire’s expression did not change.

    Zeke said as he looked at the bloodthirsty man.

    “I know you have direct contact with Skin. You’d better speak quickly and not think too much.”

    When the word skin came up the vampire’s expression hardened for a moment.

    He was a member of the Nostra family and sometimes entrusted the bloodthirsty to do dirty work that was difficult for the organization to handle.

    Meanwhile looking at the hesitating bloodsucker Zeke grabbed his dagger and used his lightning skill.

    Phage crackle!

    The lightning swept through the demon’s entire body.

    The bloodthirsty demon who was trying to maintain his dignity as a boss was foaming at the mouth.

    “Ugh!”

    Zeke took out another dagger and stabbed the other hand of the bloodthirsty man who was resting his head on the table as if it was collapsing.

    “To be precise I promise you a painless death.”

    Then the bloodsucker opened his mouth and grumbled.

    “I’m a Southerner. Why did the cartel come all the way here and cause such a fuss?”

    The bloodthirsty man said the same thing he said in his previous life before he died.

    Zeke took out a third dagger as if he had no intention of answering.

    “I’ll test your limits to see how much patience you have.”

    Phage phage phage!

    * * *

    A few hours later Zeke was able to obtain information about the skin from the bloodsucker.

    The request that was secretly passed on to Frank was also passed down through the Nostra Family through Skin.

    The Nostra family which exerted influence across the continent intervened in the succession situations of local lords and powerful nobles blackmailing them and gaining vested interests.

    Any family that fell victim to the Mafia was eventually forced to pledge allegiance to them or become accomplices in their dirty work.

    This is how the hundreds of years of history of the Nostra family came to be.

    Zeke looked at the dead bloodsucker’s body then turned to Frank who was completely frozen beside him.

    Frank wets his pants when he discovers that the bumbling rookie he sold himself off to was actually a ruthless Southern hitman.

    Zeke said looking at Frank.

    “I heard that the Bloodthirsty One wanted to entrust that task to you Spider Hand.”

    Frank nodded quickly at those words.

    “Yes that’s right.”

    Zick thought about it and then said to him.

    “Okay then you have to help me out.”

    “My my? I’ll do anything if you just let me live!”

    “The request to disguise yourself as the heir to the aristocracy is a very important task so Skin will come to you in person. If you help me I will spare your life and give you some extra money.”

    There was no way Frank could refuse.

    The target of the quest was scheduled to come to Argos tomorrow for a dungeon tour.

    Zeke changed his appearance using the transformation cloak.

    In an instant he transformed into the tattooed man who had collapsed in front of the door earlier.

    “What is this guy’s name?”

    Frank opened his mouth wide when he saw Zeke’s appearance suddenly change.

    He answered Zeke’s question hesitantly.

    “This is Jack.”

    “Okay. Tomorrow come to the contact area with me and meet Skin.”

    “Oh I understand.”

    After Zeke disposed of the corpses with the power of corruption they went to Frank’s office together.

    The plan was to capture Skin a member of the Nostra Family and properly raid their headquarters location in Heli.

    The next day as planned Zeke took Frank to the rendezvous point.

    * * *

    “This neighborhood is really gloomy.”

    A young man with slicked-back hair leaned against a black carriage smoking a cigarette and speaking.

    He was wearing a black suit and I could see tattoos on his neck and wrists.

    The curly-haired young man across from me took a deep drag on his cigarette without saying a word.

    The slicked-back hair spoke to the curly hair.

    “Hey are you really dumb? Seriously. Next time I’ll have to ask the guy who’s escorting me to be someone with a good tongue. This isn’t even fun at all.”

    Just then the carriage door opened and a man came out.

    “Children go over there and light a fire.”

    Then the young man with slicked-back hair grumbled to the man.

    “Oh uncle! You said we were going to have fun but you brought me to this remote place. What the heck!”

    As expected a man wearing a black suit.

    A man nicknamed “Skin” for his foul taste in peeling the skin off members of enemy organizations he captured got out of the carriage and lit a cigarette.

    A curly-haired young man lit Skin’s cigarette.

    “Don’t say anything to me go tell your old farts.”

    “Damn I thought that was what Dad told me to do.”

    The white-haired young man threw his cigarette on the floor nervously.

    That was when.

    A carriage approached.

    Skin gestured towards the waiting members of the organization.

    As soon as the organization members blocked the carriage someone got out of the carriage that had stopped.

    It was Zeke and Frank disguised as Jack.

    The organization searched Jack and Frank’s bodies and found nothing unusual.

    Only then did Skin smile and approach the two.

    “Jack you seem to have gained weight since last time. Are things going well for you these days? By the way what happened to you old farts? You’re the only one here.”

    Zeke disguised as Jack pointed to Frank and said:

    “I have some work to do. You know what kind of boss he is. I brought a guide so please check it out.”

    Skin who knew well the eccentric personality of the bloodthirsty vampire who had to deal with anything that bothered him first thought so.

    He said looking at Frank.

    “You’re this guy? You know what you have to do right?”

    Then Frank nodded with a nervous expression.

    “I’ll do my best! Leave it to me!”

    Skin said tapping Frank on the cheek.

    “This kid this. Are you really going to be able to guide properly when you’re this nervous?”

    Zeke in the guise of Jack said with a look of concern.

    “I’ve been working in this industry for 15 years. You don’t have to worry about me using my tongue when I start working.”

    Skin nodded.

    “Okay. I’ll trust you old farts and go for it. You know what happens if I make a mistake?”

    He made a motion to slit his throat.

    Then he immediately called the young men behind him.

    “Hello. This is my nephew. I brought him here to see the scene and get used to it.”

    The white-haired young man smiled and held out his hand.

    “It’s nice to meet you. I heard you’ve been doing this for a long time. Let’s get along well.”

    Zeke nodded to the two of them looking at Jack’s face.

    Then he approached Skin and whispered.

    “The workshop is ready. The boss said he needs to do a final check before we start.”

    The skin made an expression as if it was annoying.

    “Oh really. That old man is so picky.”

    I had worked with the Bloodthirster several times on this skin so I was well aware of his picky personality.

    He grumbled that it was annoying but he nodded as his thorough personality made him entrust such an important task to him.

    “Okay. The target will arrive in the afternoon so let’s go and take a look around now.”

    Skin climbed into the carriage with his nephew and his gang members.

    They headed towards the high-risk dungeon they had prepared in advance.

    Because the mountain path was steep and the area was sparsely populated it was difficult for outsiders to detect an accident if it happened.

    Skin got off the carriage and entered the dungeon with his team members.

    “Ugh that smell. I really can’t get used to the smell of these little monsters.”

    Skin went inside covering his nose with a handkerchief.

    Inside the dungeon high-risk monsters prepared in advance by the Bloodthirsty were locked in cages.

    Skin nodded at the monsters.

    “Minotaur and Cyclops? They’re strong. The old man must have been careful.”

    I knew it was a light trip so I thought the level of escort wouldn’t be that high so it seemed like it would be difficult for even the target’s escort knights to stop the Minotaur and Cyclops.

    Skin gestured to his nephew.

    Then he showed us a closer look at the monster trapped inside us.

    “Hey kid. Have you ever seen something like this? This is a real monster.”

    He approached the Cyclops as if he was curious about the slicked-back hair.

    Then he took out the sword he was holding and thrust it between us patting the Cyclops.

    Krrrr!

    A cyclops who had been locked in a cage starving got out of his cage drooling.

    Boom! Boom!

    I laughed my head off and grabbed my stomach at the sight of the Cyclops grabbing and shaking us.

    “Poohaha! Hey look at that. It’s so funny…”

    puck!

    It was a split second. The head of the bald man who had been hit by Cyclops’s fist exploded.

    “uh?”

    Skin who had been covered in his nephew’s blood blinked in surprise.

    Boom! Boom! Boom!

    Before we knew it we were in pieces and the Minotaur and the Cyclops were coming out of it.

    Wow! Wow!

    Skin was startled by the sight of the roaring monsters and stepped back.

    “What the heck! F**k! Jack! Hey! You little shit!”

    I looked around in confusion but I couldn’t see Jack or Frank.

    Skin was trying to run out of the dungeon cursing when suddenly a huge rock blocked his way.

    The path was blocked by a trap prepared in advance by the Bloodthirsty side triggered by Zig.

    “Damn it! You little shit! Open it! Open it! You guys stop them now!”

    The members of the organization who were shocked by the unexpected situation and froze took out their weapons and tried to stop the Minotaur and the Cyclops but it was not enough.

    puck!

    The torn corpses of the organization members began to pile up here and there in the cave. A frightened Skin fell to his feet and Cyclops approached him.

    At that moment a young man with curly hair stood in front of the skin.

    He took a dagger from his bosom and stabbed himself in the palm of his hand.

    Gulp!

    Curly-haired Cyclops sprayed his blood at the approaching Cyclops.

    Choaaaak!

    The Cyclops who was hit by the young man’s blood suddenly showed a strange reaction.

    Krrrr!

    Suddenly he rushed at the Minotaur next to him.

    As the Minotaur and the Cyclops fought biting each other the young man raised his skin.

    Skin grabbed the young man’s shoulder and said.

    “Bisko. Find a way out of here! Quickly!”

    Then someone walked out of the darkness.

    “I didn’t know there was a person with bloodline abilities attached to me.”

    It was Zeke who appeared in the form of Jack.

    Skin glared at him and drew his sword.

    “You little punk! Who are you? Where are Jack and the old man!”

    “Still you have some sense. You’re not a complete idiot.”

    Zeke took off his cloak and returned to his original form.

    Black gloves on a uniform with a dragon’s shield attached.

    On the Continent this outfit meant only one thing.

    “Dr. Draker?”

    Skin’s eyes shook at the completely unexpected identity.
