Chapter 161. Recovery
With Euna’s help, the interrogation proceeded smoothly.
The bastards we fought were indeed from the Guri Faction.
They were a faction with the ridiculous name of Irezumi, and apparently, they had recently been driven out of Guri by the Ark Faction.
“The Ark Faction absorbed a lot of our people. We couldn’t possibly stand against them, so we were just wandering around.”
“So, coming here was just a coincidence? But it looked like you were searching for something specific.”
“Ah, that was… we were looking for traces left by that bitch Hyeji. Among the members who came with us, there’s someone with the Ability to place invisible Brands. We found quite a few Brand traces left by that guy in this area, and our former Leader told us to investigate because he was curious…”
In the end, the Tattooed Man passed away without ever knowing who the owner of the traces was.
For the leader of a fairly large group, he died a rather anticlimactic death.
These bastards said their faction was shattered by me, and with nowhere else to go, they simply followed the traces.
Among the men I killed earlier, the one wielding an axe was the Brand Ability User.
They claimed that only upon arriving here did they realize Hyeji was the owner of the traces, and they were surprised to find me with her.
“Oh, right. What was Hyeji’s Ability?”
“That bitch could replicate others’ Abilities. A slightly weaker version, that is.”
