Chapter 198: Namhae-2
After turning all the drowned pirates into ghosts and returning to the shore, Seon Woo-jin and Seolpung witnessed the villagers kneeling before them.
They were kneeling with an intensely earnest look, welcoming them.
But their actions were not meant to express gratitude.
An elderly man who appeared to be the village chief was earnestly pleading with Seon Woo-jin and his companions.
“Honorable heroes! Please protect us! Now that they know what happened to those men, the Haenam faction will soon swarm like a pack of dogs! If you simply leave us, our village is doomed!”
“Please protect us!”
“Honorable heroes, please!”
Seon Woo-jin and his group found themselves in an awkward predicament.
Neither staying grounded here nor continuing to clash with the Haenam Gang was something they relished.
But it was unavoidable.
If we don’t clean up properly as they said, those bastards will definitely come back, and if we just leave them be, they’ll surely take it out on the villagers.
Seon Woo-jin sighed and said to the other two.
“There’s no choice. When the next ones come, we’ll have to eliminate them all, even if it means pushing ourselves to the limit.”
Thus, they had no choice but to stay for a while in the small seaside village.
After that, the villagers began erasing the traces of the pirates’ plunder, and the three men were finally able to enjoy the peaceful seaside scenery.
Seolpung marveled at the clear, sky-blue sea, transparent enough to see through.
