Mercenary Harem in Murim Novel

Chapter 151 – Hands

The man patted him on the back and pushed him forward.

"Feel free to greet master Hands. She's in the furthest room, waiting for your arrival."

"I am honored."

Kim Min-Gu bowed his head and began walking forward.

Behind him, Leo watched carefully. He had followed them into the sect and had been hiding his presence since then. However, he knew if he advanced more than this, his presence would be felt. The one waiting inside that room was someone who was at least the same level as the Cult Leader.

Someone who actually stepped outside instead of holing up in his lair.

So, he had to stop.

And the moment Kim Min-Gu was pushed into the room, he made his move.

"Min-Gu, run."

"Huh?"

Upon Leo's surprising entry command, Kim Min-Gu's eyes widened. The people in the room stopped what they did after noticing his presence and turned at him at once.

Without waiting for them to react, he removed his Qi limiter and his hair turned white. He raised his leg and kicked the ground.

"Lightning Step."

The ground was destroyed, and lightning crackled around him, spreading to destroy the whole room. The people inside were hit by the attack, their bodies fried by the electricity. The tables got destroyed and nothing was spared. Even the man who guided Kim Min-Gu earlier was burnt.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"Go!"

Leo yelled, and Kim Min-Gu nodded his head. He turned around and ran away, his speed unmatched. Meanwhile, Leo was focused on the door that was closed shut.

There, a figure slowly rose from the ground. A beautiful woman with a pale face and sharp eyes appeared, her aura menacing and her energy dark. Deep frown lines marred her forehead, and her eyes were bloodshot.

She was the master of the sect, and her power was on the level of the Cult Leader. In the Supreme Evil Follower's cult, she was the Hands, the one in charge of torturing and killing those who dared to oppose them. The one responsible for the missing people lately.

"Who the hell are you?!"

Her voice echoed through the hall, and Leo grinned.

"Interesting. Very interesting."

He nodded his head and cracked his fingers.

"Then, it's time for me to get serious too. Let's play, you big rat."

His Qi exploded, and the hall was filled with crackling lightning. He gripped his photon sword tightly, and his hair turned into a silvery-white color.

In front of him, the monster growled and raised her claws. A rat monster.

"How dare you!"

Hands rushed forward, her Qi exploding. Her size was no longer a hindrance, and her speed was unmatched. With every step, the ground shook, and the building groaned.

But, Leo was ready.

He channeled his lightning Qi through Nanites, enhancing his speed and his overall strength, and dodged her claws. There was no shadow at all. When Hands realized it, Leo was already behind her, swinging his sword.

A line of light formed, and the rat monster's arm was cut off. She roared and swung her tail, but Leo ducked and kicked her chin. Lightning surged from his attack, and the monster flew back.

However, the injury was superficial, and the monster was not affected. She was a Qi user, and her energy rivaled those of 8 Stars martial artists, just based on what Leo felt.

Due to her nature as a beast, she was able to heal her injuries quickly, and her Qi was strong enough to make her a danger. Her severed arm regrew, and the wound healed.

"I will cut you to pieces and wring you dry, you bastard! Don't ever think of leaving here with your life."

The monster snarled and jumped at him again.

While Leo fought against Hands inside, Kim Min-Gu found himself in a dangerous situation, surrounded by the crazy martial artists outside. They gathered after hearing the commotion and immediately went to surround him.

They were grinning and their eyes were twinkling with madness. The dark Qi they released was so strong that it could make a normal person faint just by being near them.

"Where are you going, newbie?"

Hearing that, Kim Min-Gu couldn't help but smile wryly. He had to work hard before he could run.

'Benefactor, I thought you promised to protect me!' He screamed in his mind.
