Chapter 23 - Chapter 23: Unfinished business

Seok Jun, filled with a newfound confidence, stormed into Jin Hwa's classroom and slammed the door behind him. He demanded, "Oi, Jin Hwa, come here. We have unfinished business!"

Jin Hwa, showing no fear in his cold eyes, reluctantly followed Seok Jun. They ended up standing face to face on the rooftop, where Seok Jun couldn't resist taunting Jin Hwa.

Seok Jun, feeling taunted and confident, couldn't hold back anymore. He sneered at Jin Hwa, saying, "You can use your weapon if you want, you wimp."

Jin Hwa's response was cold and unfazed. He retorted, "I don't need a weapon for an insect like you."

Seok Jun, driven by anger, charged at Jin Hwa with a heavy punch. Jin Hwa, however, remained unflinching and skillfully defended himself. He was ready to launch his counter-attack.

Jin Hwa's counter-attack landed, but due to Seok Jun's massive frame, it only left a scratch. Seok Jun taunted him, saying, "Just a scratch?" He continued to press his assault with more heavy punches.

While defending himself from Seok Jun's attacks, Jin Hwa kept his distance and used the skill "Slumber." Time slowed down, allowing him to strike at Seok Jun's vital points. As the Slumber skill ended, Seok Jun questioned, "What the heck was that thing?" Jin Hwa didn't reply.

Seok Jun called over one of his underlings, who approached with confusion. He stuttered, "Uh, yes, coming..." But as he got close, Seok Jun grabbed the underling's head, and a dark aura emerged from his hand, seeping into Seok Jun's body. The underling, who had been grabbed, fell to the ground.

As this all unfolded, Jin Hwa thought to himself, "What is that? He has power too? Tsk, this is not the time to be thinking. Let's finish this first." He continued to press his attack.

Seok Jun grew even stronger and more powerful, and Jin Hwa noticed the difference earlier. Seok Jun taunted him, saying, "What, are you surprised?" Jin Hwa didn't reply and continued to attack, activating the skill "Rapid Strike." He focused on one vital point: the solar plexus.

As time passed, Seok Jun realized that Jin Hwa was specifically targeting his vital points, making it harder for him to breathe. He noticed that he was becoming weaker. Seok Jun muttered, "Tsk, you despicable bastard!"

Seok Jun charged at Jin Hwa to close the distance and prepared to land a punch, but Jin Hwa activated the "Slumber" skill once again. Time slowed down, allowing him to dodge Seok Jun's attack successfully. Seok Jun was left shouting, "What is this crap again?!"

Instead of continuing to charge at Jin Hwa, Seok Jun turned his attention to his underlings, sapping their energy one by one.
