I Don’t Want This Reincarnation

Clank, squeak.

Soon after, the lock was released, and the door slowly opened. I strained my body and ran my hand over my pants pocket. I felt something hard in my pocket on the tip of my finger.

The one who came to me was a strong man wearing a black mask. He looked well over two meters tall. He entered the room without closing the door completely.

Was it a type of lock that couldn’t be opened from the inside? I calmly widened the distance and observed the man’s actions.

The man walked over without paying any attention to me and laid down the clothes and towels on the bedside table. The distance between the man and the door was about ten steps.

With my back against the wall, I slowly moved in the diagonal direction of the man. The composition of me, the man, and the door was made up of a triangle.

The man, who noticed my movement slowly, straightened his bent waist to put down clothes and towels and looked back at me. There was a tense tension between me and the man. I swallowed dry saliva, feeling the chilly silence in the air.

‘Can I do it?’

In fact, it was very likely to fail. No matter how fast I moved, my side was absolutely at a disadvantage because it was a small room and my hands and neck were tied.

But you still have to do it. For now, no matter how much time was wasted, the best thing to do was to lay the person on their back and quietly leave the room.

The hand visible under the white suit sleeve was the size of my face. I slowly closed my eyes and opened my eyes, feeling the difference in physique once again in his thick and large hands like a pot lid. And.

“……!”

Without hesitation, I ran towards the door. At my quick movements, the man ran towards me, exhaling harsh breaths from inside the mask. Standing in the middle with the man behind the door, I barely avoided the huge swinging arms.

“Keuk!”

Immediately, the next attack was aimed at the neck. The purpose was to stop the action by grabbing the leather leash hanging from my neck. I bent my waist and bent my upper body forward, but the end of the long-chain was trampled on by the man’s foot.

Losing my balance, I staggered, pulled out what I had already packed from my pocket, and swung it around. A long, sharp edge tore the opponent’s shoulder area. Fortunately, the chain that had been trampled on by the man’s reflexive action was released.

The shard of broken mirror. It was a weapon obtained by breaking a mirror with a chair. I didn’t want to use it as much as possible, but if I had to fight in earnest like this, I had no choice but to do it. I had no choice but to deal with it without going easy on this situation.

The man who found a shard of a mirror in my hand shook his head and let out a threatening sound. Because I took it out carelessly, even my palm holding the shard wasn’t safe. A stream of blood flowed from the palm of my hand, along with the bitter pain.

It was very burdensome to face an opponent who was being controlled by Samael and was even wearing a mask. I licked my dry lips once with my tongue and tried to smile.

“Bring it on, if you are confident.”

The man who snorted at my words ran in earnest. His movements were quite fast compared to his huge body. Being careful not to step on the chain again, I spread my legs wide and bent over, swinging the shard of the mirror away from the man who was trying to grab me.

The shard passed over the neck of the man who came into range. Blood splattered in front of my eyes with a scream. This wasn’t enough. To defeat the man, I had to make him impossible to move without killing him.

Huung, the man’s arms spun through the air. It was fast, but the action was simple, making it easy to avoid. Aiming for a gap, I stabbed a shard of mirror deep into the man’s thigh.

“Kuaaak!”

Blood gushed out as I pulled out the shard I had stabbed. Without missing the sight of the man who staggered, I also stabbed a mirror shard into the other thigh.

Kuung!

The man who was stabbed in both legs couldn’t stand and fell. I took a deep breath and walked slowly towards the man. When the band of the mask was cut at once with the shard of a mirror soaked in blood, the face of a man with a blank expression out of focus was revealed.

He was in a state similar to that of Edward, who had been subjected to mind control. As if a command had been put in to stop me if I tried to escape, even though he was injured, he squirmed to keep getting up.

“Haa…”

I glanced down at the shard of the mirror in my hand, wiping the sweat that ran down my chin. My face reflected in the blood-soaked shard of the mirror. Now I saw blood splattered around my cheek. I wiped my face with the towel the man had brought.

‘I wish I had a better weapon.’

I pressed down on the man who was still struggling and looked around, but I couldn’t find a useful weapon. It seemed that I had to keep using the mirror shard.

“This…”

Instead of a weapon, I found a small earplug in the man’s ear. Thanks to this, perhaps I could hear Samael’s orders from far away. So, was it not necessary to listen to direct voices in the state of being controlled?

‘I was expecting it from the moment his ability worked for the S-rank Kang Seong-geon, but… he is a talented person with SS-rank ability, I’m sure.’

Then there was a high probability that the puppeteer was also an SS-rank. In the worst situation, I kicked my tongue and pulled out the earplug.

As there were no other devices or wires, it seemed to be an item made for the purpose. Just in case, I put an earplug on my ear. It was a valuable item that could be stolen and listened to as Samael gave orders to others.

Having obtained everything I could possibly get from the man, I left the room with the mirror shard hidden in the palm of my hand just in case.

There was no one in the long white hallway. Recalling the past memories, I figured out where Edward’s room might be.

‘The seventh room on the first floor.’

Just before fainting, Samael ordered me and Edward to be taken there. If Edward hadn’t moved to another room since then, he would still be in the same room.

I should try to find the stairs first. I sighed and walked down the hallway while looking around. The hallway where the visitors could be seen at regular intervals was like a hotel. As I walked, being careful not to be seen as much as possible, I heard a sharp cry from the other side.

I quickly leaned over and leaned against the wall. I saw people fighting in front of the stairs at the end of the hallway.

The stairs that went down. It was fortunate that I found it as planned, but I had to pass them in order to pass the stairs. There were three men of normal physique than the one who came to my room, but there were too many to deal with alone.

Swallowing dry saliva, thinking about what to do, luckily, the door just behind them opened and someone came out. It was a woman with her long hair undone. The woman opened her mouth as soon as her eyes met me.

“Kiaaak!”

It was a hoarse, dry scream that couldn’t be considered a human voice. Hearing the sound, the men in front of the stairs looked at me at the same time.

“Tsk… !”

The timing wasn’t good. I hurriedly got up and tried to run down the stairs, but a skinny hand with long nails grabbed the back of my head.

I clenched my teeth in sharp pain and swung a shard of mirror backwards. Kkyaaak! The woman with a bridge of her nose cut by the shard stepped back, letting go of my head, but in the meantime, the man approached me and swung his fist.

Kuung!

“Ugh!”

My vision was shaken sharply as my head spun around and hit against the wall in the hallway. Due to the impact, the earplug that was in my ear fell to the floor. I lost my focus and before I could even come to my senses, this time I was kicked. Cursing, shouting, and violence flew in indiscriminately.

I lifted my tied wrists, wrapped my arms around my head, and kicked the leg of the man standing in front of me.

“Kuaak!”

As the man with the right shin fell, I came out of the gap and stabbed the mirror shard into the shoulder of the person next to me.

“You little punk!”

“Kill him!”

The chain was pulled and my body was pulled forward. The third man, with relatively few injuries, grabbed my hair and slammed it against the wall twice in a row. Uung, my head was ringing and my mind was cut off for a moment and then came back.

With a shard of a mirror that was gripped as strongly as a lifeline, the hand that was holding my hair was scraped with force. Blood spattered from the back of the man’s deeply torn hand.

“Gasp, hu…!”

I tried to escape quickly, but again my shoulder was caught and I was thrown on the floor in the hallway. Three men and one woman. With my neck and wrists tied, there was no way I could get out of it. Their mind was gone and only their violent instincts remained, like animals that found their prey.

The shin held in a strong hand was painful. I deliberately thrust a sharp shard of a mirror in front of him to feel fear and wielded it threateningly, but it didn’t work for those whose fear had disappeared. While looking for a place to escape, fists flew into my face again.

“Uh…”

The inside of my mouth was torn and I felt a bloody smell along with piercing pain. As if suffering severe motion sickness, I struggled to get up, ignoring my stomach that felt like wanting to vomit and blurred vision.

Fortunately, I tried to counterattack with a piece of mirror that hadn’t yet been taken away, but the building shook violently with a sudden roar.

Kugugung!

Then the people who had just swung their fists at me with their distorted faces stopped moving like broken machines. All the muscles in their face were loose and looked mesmerized. When I found the earplug on the floor and put it on, I heard a familiar voice.

[A guest has arrived.]

“……!”

It was Samael’s voice. I touched the earplug, feeling the vibrations resonating on the floor.

[Gather to the first floor.]

As soon as the order was finished, the four people in front of me entered the nearest room, put on masks, and went down the stairs. They all acted the same at the same time, like toys pulled out of the factory.

Pajik!

“Ugh…!”

At the end of that, small electricity jumped out of the earplug and heated up. It must have fallen to the floor and the part had broken and then completely broken. I took the useless earplug out of my ear and looked around.

After seeing that everyone in the vicinity had gone to Samael’s place, I moved towards the stairs. Perhaps I had just been injured in a fight and my right ankle was throbbing every time I walked, but I ignored it.

Now that everyone was gone, this was an opportunity. I had to go to Edward as soon as possible. If I only met Edward, then I can find the exit and run away.

I limped down the stairs without lowering my vigilance as I might be attacked again.
