Chapter 99: The Death Squad
With a sound like his left knee was shattered, Yang Ho-seon staggered and collapsed.
“I didn’t even hit you hard, you bastard. You’re exaggerating with a wound that’ll heal with a few needles.”
That’s a lie.
He’d completely shattered the kneecap. Considering the poor medical standards here, he’d be limping for the rest of his life.
“Aaargh!”
But my lie didn’t seem to work. The bastard desperately started crawling away.
‘This is annoying. ’
Thwack!
“Gah!”
The nail Hyuncheol flicked from his hand pierced the back of the bastard’s left hand and embedded itself in the ground.
Pinned to the floor, the bastard screamed.
The guards flinched, reaching for their weapons.

“This is an interrogation. Refrain from such actions.”
Surrounded by over a hundred Oedang warriors, they could do nothing.
“How can that be called interrogation!”
“Did the Military Bureau intervene in Oedang affairs through proper channels?”

“Instead, you wounded a warrior’s pride—as vital as life itself.”
“Guh.”
The guards could only fall silent at the criticism from the former Third Captain, who had been reprimanded for arresting Yang Ho-jan back in his days as a Captain.
SMACK!
He struck the man’s cheek and declared.
“In Yang Ho-jan’s office, we found the emblem symbolizing the Ten-Horse Alliance and evidence proving he was a spy.”
“Th-that’s impossible! Why would my brother betray us?!”
“I don’t know the reason. But I know this.”
