Harley’s Modern Diary (3)
An alley in Daegu, far from the main street, littered with all kinds of miscellaneous items.
The place was so dark that it wasn’t properly lit, and it was a place that ordinary citizens wouldn’t even bother to look at.
No matter how much public security has improved in Korea recently, there are limits.
It may be a crime prevention measure for general cases, but if you set foot in a place that is so openly in the dark, even out of curiosity, you are never guaranteed safety.
This is especially true in areas other than Seoul, where the power of the clan is strong.
“Giggle, giggle. “Jumma did that damn thing again and lost it all.”
“Is it real? also?”
“Oh, shut up. “I still feel dirty.”
“I thought so. People should live soundly. “Is it okay to use it if you only aim for one hit like that?”
However, such a dangerous environment was just a normal part of daily life for the residents of the shadows.
A group of young men walking around, giggling loudly with red faces as if they were drunk.
“I told you to shut up? And damn Geonsil, what kind of guys like us…”
Is it because they were so drunk that they didn’t even look around and were caught up in their conversation?
puck-
The young man who was walking in the lead, looking irritated, did not notice Inyoung approaching from the other side and ended up bumping into him on the shoulder.
“Ah, sir! “What is this again?”
“Kehehehehe! “What is that guy doing?”
“Giggles.”
He fell to the floor as if he had hit an iron pillar, frowned, and staggered to his feet.
Perhaps because I was drunk, the pain wasn’t that great, but that wasn’t that important right now.
The people around him who were already talking about this and that were now pointing fingers at him and laughing at him, and the lid on his head, which had already reached the limit of irritation, turned upside down.
“What is this guy doing? He hits people on the shoulder…”
“ok? me?”
So, the moment when you open your eyes and pour out your anger at the person across from you.
A sturdy figure slowly approached through the darkness of the alley.
“Well, I’m sorry about this. “It’s been a while since I stopped caring about that.”
He said that he had been avoiding people when they saw him, so he never thought he would bump into someone.
The burly man in sunglasses, who apologized like a gentleman, lightly scratched the back of his head.
“I think it’s over if I apologize. That’s enough, just pay the treatment fee.”
“Okay, okay, those clothes and sunglasses look nice, so I’ll leave them behind.”
But very unfortunately.
The young people, who were already completely drunk and paralyzed, did not accept his sincere apology.
At first glance, the opponent had an extraordinary appearance, but appearance was not a very important factor for them as they belonged to the ‘Geomdogpa’, the largest organization in the shadowy area of Daegu.
“Consider yourself lucky. “If it had been before, it wouldn’t have ended like this.”
“Giggle, first of all, you must have smashed the shoulder first.”
“Are you glad that your life was saved at least then?”
No matter how much they belonged to an organization, there was no way that these people walking around carefree while drunk in such a dangerous area were ordinary gangsters.
An aura of mystery that billows over their bodies, as if ready to kill them halfway as soon as they resist.
Although none of them were of a very high level, the mere presence of supernatural abilities was enough to put them at risk.
A man in a very difficult situation, surrounded and threatened by so many returning gangsters.
Harley, who came here based on the information brought by the newly recruited employees, whetted his appetite.
‘This is another refreshing experience. It may be because Director Ha changed his body structure and hid his energy as much as possible.’
Still, you will probably feel some instinctive discomfort.
It seemed that not only his reason but also his instincts had been completely paralyzed by alcohol.
In a situation like this, there was only one thing he could do.
“Well, I can’t help it. “I didn’t really want to engage in illegal medical practice.”
Contrary to his words, he smiled brightly and excitedly rolled up his sleeves and prepared to begin physical therapy.
“What? “You want to try it?”
“Let’s tear it apart from the limbs first.”
There was no need to explain in detail what happened next.
“Geugeuggeukgeuk…”
“Cough! Cough!”
No matter how much time had passed, the men who had been so energetic were scattered all over the alleys like crumpled trash.
It couldn’t help but fit in so well with the surrounding interior.
“You… how dare you know who we are…! “If you mess with the Geomdog faction here in Daegu, you will never be safe!”
When I was looking at that scenery with satisfaction.
As if the painstaking treatment had had an effect, one person who appeared to be relatively sane shouted in exasperation, seemingly completely sober.
‘I guess it’s because it’s my first time. It looks like it’s not completely cured yet.’
From what he was saying, it seemed like he needed additional treatment.
Harley nodded and took long strides toward the patient, who looked cheerful even when he was down.
“Hi! My, my older brother is an official of the Geomdok faction! Do you think my brother will stay silent if I do something wrong?!”
At those words, my brisk steps stopped.
Then, perhaps thinking that his threat was effective, the person who was shouting became angry and continued speaking.
“I’m sure you’ve heard the rumors about Kwon Cheol-yong of the Black Nightshade, right? Heukyacha, the big brother of our Geomdogpa! My older brother, Jang Tae-hyuk, is right next to him! If I make a mistake, right away… huh? It means that the eldest brother will step forward. If you understand what I’m saying, right now…”
“oh? “Did you get this right?”
A carefree voice interrupts the conversation that was being picked up as quickly as possible.
The man, speechless at that, fell down and looked up blankly.
Leaving behind the dim lighting of the alley.
The teeth of the being whose face was shadowed were brightly revealed.
As if this was some kind of windfall, as if he was truly happy.
‘···sh*t, I guess this got caught wrong…’
It was only then that the effects of the medicine prescription began to take effect, and my reason and instincts, which had been completely lost, returned and began to do their job fully.
“I just happened to be visiting that friend, right? “This is also fate, so wouldn’t you please guide me?”
Even though it was already too late.
***
The clan was an organization that existed in the shadows of Korea for more than 15 years.
Although most of the force has now moved to Seoul to solidify its influence in Seoul, the clan originally had the strong nature of an alliance that spread out across the country and operated in crew units.
bang!
“sh*t! These rotten trash…! “A security organization in name only can’t catch vampires, but has become their dog?”
As such, it was not surprising that it not only caused various problems across the country, but also repeatedly clashed over leadership with shadowy forces that were like the rulers of the region.
No, rather, the casualties resulting from such a fight would be much greater than the damage known on the surface.
Due to the nature of vampires, it was much more convenient and efficient to harvest blood through struggle in the shadows rather than supplying it from the sun.
‘This is difficult. This is really troublesome. It seems like we haven’t been discovered yet, but considering those persistent Guardians, it’s only a matter of time before we are discovered.’
Kwon Cheol-yong, the boss of the Daegu Geomdok faction, was one of those who had a bad relationship with the clan in the process.

It was not that difficult to protect Daegu’s leadership against the dispersed power of the clans at the time, but in the process, many of the people he cared for like brothers ended up being sacrificed.
“under! Shameless guys. Did you really think that you could live under the sun just by going out to the sun now? “I can still clearly smell the blood my bastards scattered in the past, so that’s ridiculous!”
When the clan conquered Korea’s underground and became the rulers of the night, he reluctantly joined them.
No matter what happens, this world ultimately revolves around the logic of power.
I thought that no matter how much resentment remained, I had no choice but to surrender and accept the result since the clear advantage was divided…
‘But this is a different case. ‘You guys are the ones who broke the underground rules first.’
They stand in the sun and control crimes that occur in the shadows.
Can’t this already be considered a member of the same underground organization?
Maybe it’s another police organization.
It was by no means unfair for him, who thoroughly pursued the secret, to join hands with outsiders and betray his clan.
‘Damn, things went wrong. It doesn’t matter if the bombing fails, but I never thought they would immediately subdue the celebrities who caused the commotion and hand them over to the Returnees’ Association. Instead of solving the problems they are directly involved in, they pass it on to the investigative agency. Don’t they have any pride in being the rulers of the night?’
Eliminating Licoris through bombing was an operation that would be good if it succeeded, but it didn’t matter if it failed.
The plan he was really aiming for was next.
If celebrities who had a conflict with them were assassinated all at once, who would the public point out first as the culprit?
‘If the bombing was successful, one hundred percent. Even if not, the first thing that comes to mind is the victim, Lycoris, and the vampires behind it.’
There were many witnesses, so there was no use in denying it.
If additional work prepared separately is added, public opinion will begin to burn, and the government and association will have no choice but to feel burdened by embracing them.
His plan was to completely destroy the foundation in Yangji by destroying the trust that the clan had built up one by one and creating divisions.
“Damn, all my plans have gone to waste. “If that’s the case, I have nothing to say to them…”
Kwon Cheol-yong chewed his lips as he thought of his secret collaborator.
Assassination, the most important step in this operation, was impossible with his skills.
Even though he was a strong man who had reached the level of a master, it was absolutely impossible to secretly assassinate Cheon Seol-hyang and other awakened figures representing the entertainment industry.
To be honest, I wasn’t confident that I would win even if I just fought her, so of course the person assigned to assassinate them had to be someone else with similar skills.
[There is no need to say it. I have already figured out all the circumstances.]
“Huh! when?”
Right now, it was as if he caught up with Kwon Cheol-yong, a master-level player, at a moment when he wasn’t even aware of it.
[Tsk, this is completely wrong. At least, if it weren’t for the southern branch of Seoul where the Emperor is located, I would have tried something.]
The shadow, conveying its message through the air rather than voice, slowly shook its head.
Even though he specialized in assassination and was on the verge of transcendence, as long as he couldn’t overcome the wall, he didn’t have the confidence to deceive the true transcendent’s senses and secretly kill them.
“…But there is still a chance. “There’s no reason to hold them that long in the first place.”
[The timing is already mixed. It’s better to make a new plan.]
The shadow looked at him who still couldn’t let go of his regrets— Heukyeong inwardly clicked his tongue.
I chose him after considering many conditions and because he seemed to be quite useful, but no matter how I looked at him, I didn’t think he was a person who would be with me for a long time.
‘I guess I’ll just finish this matter and deal with it appropriately. If you just embrace this guy for no reason, your tail will only get longer.’
Now that Beoncheonhoe had completely withdrawn from Korea was the perfect opportunity to hide in this country.
In order for the Black Dragon Society, which was on the verge of extinction in China, which they completely controlled, the best thing to do was to shake up the clan that occupied this small peninsula and take advantage of the moment when they were in confusion.
‘But if the collaborator is like this, this will only become dangerous.’
If you handle things sloppily and get attacked by both the clan and the Buncheonhoe, it’s all over.
In that sense, we need to find new competent talent who can handle the work more reliably…
smart-
“Yes, brother. This is Taehyuk. “I have a report that needs to be delivered urgently…”
At that time, a close associate’s voice was heard from outside their office.
Kwon Cheol-yong, who made eye contact with Heuk-yeong for a moment, shouted nervously toward the door.
“I’m busy right now, so come back later!”
“It’s urgent. For some reason, a Guardian investigator suddenly burst into our territory, but we can’t communicate at all. “If we don’t respond to this right away…”
But he couldn’t help but frown at the urgent answer that followed.
He was the only one in the organization who knew about this plan.
If the rest are just indirectly collaborating without knowing what they are doing, who would have thought that their tail would already be stepped on this far.
Heukyeong, who understood the situation, slowly nodded and entered the darkness of the room.
“···come in.”
Clap—
And the moment the security door barrier was lifted in response to Kwon Cheol-yong’s words.
“Sniff! It stinks, it stinks! The smell of pubic hair is very strong here. Kahahahahaha!”
The door was opened wide and a stranger came inside.
No matter where you look, he looks like a gangster, a sturdy man with white hair and a suit.
Kwon Cheol-yong was taken aback and quickly turned to his associate named Tae-hyuk…
“…I’m sorry, brother.”
“you you···! “How could you…!”
He was just standing in the doorway with his head down with a messed up face.
When Kwon Cheol-yong was trembling at the betrayal.
Harley strode into the office and smiled brightly, looking into the darkness in the corner.
“Hey~ It’s a big hit, isn’t it? Just as our talented new recruits said, we have come to take down the criminal who committed the crime, and it just so happens that the person behind it is also here?”
Right after that.
The shadow in the darkness tried to quickly leave the spot.
[Ugh!]
“Uh-huh! “I just got here, so where are you going to get up first?”
Maybe it was when he was far away, but since he was already within his field of vision, there was no way to escape.
Quagwagwagwang—!
The office, which was surrounded by a strong barrier, exploded in an instant.
A shadow trying to escape somehow like a loach and Harley chasing after it like a shelter.
After a series of processes that lasted for a short time, the hunter finally grabbed the leash of his prey and smiled fiercely.
‘If this were to happen, I could have really missed it, right? ‘You were lucky.’
Instead of direct combat ability, his escape skills were beyond imagination, as all his abilities were consumed by secret action.
If I had just smashed everything and entered inside like usual, I would have really missed it.
‘After all, people must live good lives.’
Who would have known that the method chosen to reduce noise as much as possible, called ‘low installation mode’, would bring about such results!
This was all thanks to the willingness to provide physical therapy to young people I met on the street.
In that way, Harley was able to easily accumulate violence points today.
As always.
