Sudden Mission: Take over the district
Sudden Mission: Take over the district
The Captain's Match is ultimately a representative battle.
The Captain's Match involves representatives gathering for a 4-on-4 fight.
Whichever side has the final winner takes the victory.
They probably figured one-on-one would be tough, and since the rest of the guys are all about the same, they're planning to just gang up on me.
I can hear the sound of those Iljin bastards' brains churning all the way from here.
Alright, let's see your faces.
Kang Ho-cheol handled the contact, and the Captain's Match between the four schools belonging to the Gyeonggi Alliance and Yeongheung High School is being held.
Rumors spread like wildfire through every school and academy district.
It wasn't just the high schools; even the middle and elementary schools, where high school entrance was just around the corner, were talking about nothing but the Captain's Match.
A great duel, invisible to the eyes of adults, with the hegemony of the Suwon school and academy district on the line, was taking place.
The location was an old futsal court halfway up Gwanggyosan Mountain.
This place, with its torn netting, was deserted on Saturday afternoons.
Usually, kids who liked to kick a ball around would gather here, but normal kids wouldn't come looking for this place after hearing the rumors.
With me in the lead, the Yeongheung High Iljin swarmed up the mountain.
On the other hand, the opponents had already arrived.
Excluding the ones who skipped, we had 25 people, while the opponents looked to be at least 80 at a glance.
On our side, it's me, Kang Ho-cheol, and the 1st and 2nd-year Iljin, making it about 15 people.
I see four bastards in the front.
I took a step back, and Kang Ho-cheol, who had plenty of experience with inter-school negotiations, stepped up.
The Iljin from Dongsuwon High, Seryu Technical High, Suwon Information High, and Suwon Agricultural High all showed up.
The biggest guy is the Dongsuwon High boss. He's glaring at me, and I can see his fists are covered in calluses.
I heard he did boxing, and according to Kang Ho-cheol, he's supposed to be the strongest among them.
And the next guy to watch out for is the Agricultural High boss, who's fat as a pig.
That guy is a wrestling specialist. They say his durability and strength are monstrous.
The others didn't look like pushovers either, judging by the way they were warming up.
Kang Ho-cheol is working out the match bracket with the Iljin from the other side.
As I watched that, a familiar, welcome sound rang in my ears after a long time.
Ding-ding.
[Sudden Mission: Take Over the District]
You are about to face a bloody battle with the school bosses. Subjugate the regional champions and take over the District.
Upon completing the mission, immense benefits such as District rewards and skill rewards await you.
Mission success criteria: Incapacitation.
District? The fuck, am I supposed to become a real gangster or something?
But I am curious about the skill reward.
It's a chance to get a hidden skill that hasn't been unlocked yet.
Can't miss this.
I strode over to where Kang Ho-cheol and the bosses were gathered.
Everyone's eyes turned to me.
I reached them and opened my mouth.
"Are you guys the school bosses?"
Everyone looks at me. They seem curious about what I'm up to.
"The fuck with the match bracket. It's retarded; just all four of you come at me. Don't waste my time."
They look at me with wide eyes.
Some are dumbfounded, some are pissed off, some think it's funny, and some are even scared for a second.
A variety of reactions.
Doesn't matter.
The Dongsuwon High boss stepped up.
"You fucker, I was staying quiet. Are you actually crazy?"
I am crazy. Yep. Crazy for points, crazy for leveling up, crazy for skills.
Ignoring the Dongsuwon High boss, I shouted loudly so everyone could hear.
"The Captain's Match starts now. The fight is between me and the four school bosses."
The Iljin who heard my voice started murmuring.
Alone?
Is he doing 4-on-1?
Wow, the fuck, that's some serious guts.
That guy is a real lunatic.
I continued speaking, ignoring the murmuring.
"Anyone who interferes dies. And those who get beaten by me will shut their mouths and come under me. I'm counting to three, then we start. Three."
The bosses were flustered by my sudden action.
Now there's no turning back.
"Two!"
The pissed-off Dongsuwon High boss couldn't take it anymore and threw a punch.
As expected of a guy who did boxing. His punch is sharp.
"One! Start!"
But it's amateur level.
My body is already beyond the level of professional athletes.
I dodge the incoming punch, letting it graze past me, and target the guy who looks the weakest.
Left foot axe kick motion.
The surprised guy blocks high and retreats.
But it's a feint.
The foot that was coming down hits the ground, and the other foot shoots out.
A middle kick slams into the side of the guy who was retreating.
While he collapses with a groan, I hit the guy next to him with a left low kick.
My shin, tempered by stats, training, and real combat, is like a steel pipe.
If you don't know how to defend properly and can't disperse the impact, you can collapse in one hit.
Thwack.
But the opponent is the Agricultural High boss who did wrestling.
They say his durability is well-known, and sure enough, he stepped back even after taking it clean.
Seeing him limping, he's half-collapsed.
But it's impressive that he even endured that.
Just then, I spun half a turn to dodge the guy rushing from behind and threw a jab and hook.
Leaving the guy who hesitated from the impact behind, I set up for another low kick against the limping guy.
The guy who already took one hit reflexively lowers his upper body.
He's trying to grab my leg this time.
Typical of a wrestler.
But he doesn't know that's a mistake.
Athletes don't block low kicks with their arms for no reason.
I also know exactly what to do in this situation.
The path of the low kick shifts, turning the low into a high.
The high kick exploded into his lowered guard and empty chin.
Crack!
The flesh on his face ripples from the impact! I can see it shaking.
His face absorbs the shock, vibrates, and his body just collapses.
Another punch flies at me. I blocked it with my guard up.
I used footwork to move back and sideways, trying not to get surrounded.
As their punches, swung with all their might, were blocked or hit empty air, the guys got desperate, and their movements naturally became wider.
When movements get wide, power is wasted unnecessarily.
And the impact they receive increases by that much.
I ducked to let a full-force straight punch graze over my head.
Then I dove into the rushing guy's chest and threw an overhead hook.
The guy who took it right on the chin wobbled his head and toppled forward in the same stance he was rushing in with.
Three went down in an instant.
The last guy is frozen with wide eyes.
Why are you so surprised?
No need to wait, I rushed in. One, two.
He put up a guard, but my fists bombarded his guard.
I kicked his stomach with my front foot as he stumbled back from the impact. I pushed my heel at the moment of impact.
The impact, turned into a spear, pierced his stomach, and he doubled over, clutching his gut.
An uppercut slammed into the face of the guy bent forward.
His body spun half a turn and fell to the floor, back first.
Thud.
The end.
All four went down in less than a minute.
The 100-some people on both sides were just staring with their mouths hanging open.
Ding-ding.

Let's clean up the scene first.
"Kang Ho-cheol, bring it here."
Kang Ho-cheol, who had been dazed, ran back at my instruction and brought a baseball bat.
I looked around at the crowd and shouted.
"You fuckers. I'm going to educate you now, so watch closely."
Then I woke up the guys who had collapsed one by one.
I told them to get on their stomachs and then started swinging the club.
Their buttocks and thighs burst, and blood seeped up through their clothes.
The guys getting hit were so demoralized they couldn't do anything but take the beating.
They were already crushed by my bare fists, and now that I was holding a baseball bat, they were completely overwhelmed by the atmosphere.
I beat the four Iljin bosses to a pulp.
After finishing the job, I had Kang Ho-cheol call the number 2s from each school.
Seeing them approach hesitantly, they were already demoralized.
"Little shitheads."
After confirming everyone was gathered, I asked.
"Any of you fuckers want to keep going?"
Everyone waved their hands in denial.
Having just seen the four guys get beaten to a bloody pulp, it's understandable.
"Are you all Gyeonggi Alliance?"
Everyone nods.
"Bring your kids and come closer."
They went back and gathered the Iljin from each school and brought them over.
I made sure they got as close to me as possible.
This should be enough.
Then.
I immediately activated Charisma.
Swoosh.
It doesn't make a sound, but it feels like that kind of sound is spreading in all directions.
It's as if energy is radiating from my body.
Now I don't even need to shout.
Everyone is listening to my voice.
I said quietly.
"Everyone sit down."
Everyone gathered sat in their places.
The sight reminded me of a boot camp.
"From today, there is no Gyeonggi Alliance."
No complaints.
"We are heading straight to Ansan from here. And."
I continued toward the guys listening intently.
"Today, we're taking down the Gyeonggi Alliance."
