1 Prologue

"Charles Choi, that scheming old man.... He ordered you all to do this right?" A teenager with a deformed face riddled with scars questioned

In front of him was a young man wearing a beige school blazer alongside a rare red hair. He held a lollipop in his right hand as he said nonchalantly.

The two were at a top floor of an abandoned construction site, the wind blew between the two. Construction materials were littered everywhere as the night breeze perfectly encapsulated the sight.

"Chairman's orders, I'm just following along."

The young man with the red hair then rushed and threw a right hook at the teenager with the deformed face.

The teenager then said while dodging to the side "This isn't you James, wasn't it enough for you to kill that old man! I know Charles is secretly blackmailing you!"

"Shut up!" James replied as he recovered his missed left hook by turning and landing a roundhouse kick instead on the teenager's guard, pushing him away a few meters by just the sheer impact of the kick.

"Looks like you've grown weaker since we last fought Han-wool" James said to the teenager as he continued his onslaught of attacks by doing a spinning back heel kick aimed at Han-wool's liver as his guard was not low enough to cover his lower body.

But Han-wool did the unthinkable as he did not try to evade James' attacks, he chose instead to move very close to James' kick.

"You?!" James was shocked as his kick landed but Han-wool did not even budge or wince from pain. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Han-wool then caught his leg but James responded immediately by trying to spin off-balance and land another kick but Han-wool let go at the right time as James' attack did not connect and he then fell to the ground, sitting up-right. At this point the two were at the edge of the abandoned building

Han-wool then tried to strike James with his feet while he was trying to recover but James evaded by lying on the ground. James then pulled Han-wool's arm, effectively trapping Han-wool in a gogoplata as he slips one foot in front of his head and under his chin, he then locks his hands behind his head; choking Han-wool with his shin immediately.

"You were prying too much for your own good" James said, but as he said that, he saw a black object peering from the corner of his eyes coming from Han-wool's free hand. He then saw it was pointed right at his head as Han-wool said

"It looks like it's your end, James Lee." Han-wool then slammed the handgun on James' head while simultaneously keeping it pointed at him.

As Han-wool was about to pull the trigger, a knife was suddenly thrown at perfect precision right at Han-wool's hand that was holding the gun. Han-wool reacted immediately by blocking the knife with the gun.

3 people came out from the shadows and immediately surrounded Han-wool from 3 sides except behind.

"Well, well, well, it looks like our friend James actually struggled against our little Han-wool" A young man with blonde hair and glasses said.

"It was a good thing the chairman ordered us to come here. Otherwise, the legendary James Lee would have perished in this very construction site." A very large man wearing a suit added.

"Let's just dispose of the trash here already" A young man with black hair and sun-glasses replied while smoking a cigarette. James at this point already got up as he prepared to go once again.

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHA!" a resounding laugh could be heard from Han-wool as he then said

"It looks like that old man Charles pulled out all the stops so he could get me, but you know; I won't just die here without trying." Han-wool then added.

"Gun, Goo, Tom and James. You know that very well even though I'm the youngest don't you all?"

Even though it may seem like empty words coming from a fatigued man, all the 4 people surrounding Han-wool felt a chill in their spines

Han-wool then lunged at the 4 unexpectedly, he first aimed for the unarmed Goo who had just thrown his knife at him. The other 3 reacted as Gun and James gave Han-wool a kick right at his ribs which connected. But Han-wool who was already close to Goo, grabbed Goo's face. He then pushed with the entire strength of his upper body right at him, breaking his glasses entirely while getting pushed to the ground.

*THUD

A small crack formed in the ground below Goo just from Han-wool's strength.

The other 3 were shocked

"One down, three to go." But as Han-wool said that, he felt a crack in upper back as he felt something metallic hit him. He then staggered to the ground slightly.

"I'm not done yet." Goo said while readjusting his broken glasses, in his hand was a metal pipe picked up from the surroundings.

Gun then took advantage of the situation by hitting Han-wool with a Brazillian kick, Han-wool felt his vision suddenly turn blurry while his ears kept ringing. But he ignored that by launching a right jab right at Gun's face. In response, Goo slammed the metal pipe at Han-wool's right knee while James struck Han-wool with a seemingly invisible attack. Han-wool once again staggered to the ground but he ignored the sharp pain in his right knee by trying to land a strike at Goo.

But Han-wool felt that his fist hit something heavy as he looked up

"You haven't forgotten that I was here right?" Tom said as he grabbed Han-wool and threw him near the edge of the building

Defenseless and heavily injured, Han-wool supported himself to get up but what met his eyes was a metal pipe that Goo aimed right at his head.

"This is the end of the line Lee Han-wool" Goo said with a crazed smirk on his face.

Beside Goo was the trio of Tom Lee, Gun and James Lee.

"Now shall I do the honors?" Goo said while practicing batting a ball.

"Let me stand up first, then you can kill me" Han-wool said as he stood up, on his left shoulder was Goo's metal pipe.

"It was nice meeting you Han-wool" Goo said

The other 3 had their guards up but as Goo was about to hit Han-wool with the metal pipe. Han-wool held it and said

"It was nice meeting you too Kim Joon Goo, but I'm taking you with me to the pits of hell" he declared as he grabbed onto Goo's metal bat and shoulders and jumped of the building while still grabbing onto Goo.

Han-wool had a smile on his face as he was happy he was able to take down at least once, but when he looked up at while hearing the bustling streets of seoul, it was the hanging upper body of Goo as Tom Lee managed to grab onto one of Goo's legs. He also saw Goo holding up a middle finger. Han-wool's face was in disbelief as he fell down from the 10 story building.

"That idiot Goo" Gun said as he looked down

James Lee who was beside him then said

"Even Tom Lee, would have died from that, not mentioning that kid."

Tom Lee then let Goo climb back up as he clapped his hands and said

"Well then, mission complete, all we have to do is retrieve the body."

....

A middle aged man with a lab coat approached a seemingly dead body which had fallen right into the dumpsters right beside the abandoned construction site. Carrying with him was a bag large enough to carry a human body, something was inside of the said bag.

"Oh if isn't this a surprise.."
