I’M A Max-Level Regressor [EN]: Chapter 266

266

From the start, I had no intention of going to the Hawaiian dungeon.

The reason was simple.

It was because I had figured out Elijah’s personality.

His caution was something I had heard about often, even though I had never met him directly in my past life.

A prime example was sending a ‘vanguard’ to dungeons where internal confirmation wasn’t properly done, like today.

I don’t know if he thought the same in my past life, but Elijah always sent his subordinates into dungeons first.

There was a reason for it.

Back then, Elijah was the undisputed strongest Awakened in the American world, receiving checks from many guilds.

There were actually quite a few assassination attempts, but Elijah overcame them well with his unique caution.

It was true that Elijah and I had some level of common ground as followers and apostles.

But we didn’t have the kind of close relationship where we considered each other comrades risking our lives, like the members of our ‘Team Mystic.’

So, I figured Elijah would definitely doubt the sincerity of my words and send his subordinates first.

However, there was one more trick involved here: raising the level of the dungeon to be used as bait.

Perhaps that’s why Elijah sent two executives from the Elijah Group during the preliminary exploration.

It was like a portion of their forces had been detached.

As expected of the meticulous Elijah, the two executives appeared disguised as Elijah and Bellic.

If I hadn’t known this fact at all, the disguise would have been so perfect that I would have been completely fooled.

I waited for Elijah’s subordinates to come out of the dungeon, and as expected, they came out and contacted someone.

They probably told Elijah that there were no traces of intruders or traps inside, so he could come in as much as he wanted.

In response to this, I used the Space Movement buff to move to America and took my second move.

That was to disguise myself as one of the executives belonging to the Elijah Group.

That was Kina Robbie.

A woman who was an executive of the Elijah Group and also known as the group’s ‘dirty cleaner.’

Kina was the underworld’s action leader, mainly in charge of dirty work in the group. Her notoriety was high.

She was also the person who allowed Elijah to pretend to be all noble and clean.

Because Kina took charge of all the work that involved getting her hands dirty.

She is very active.

Although she was an executive, her range of activity was wide, so the surrounding security and security were lax.

Although they paid attention to it from inside and outside the guild, it was difficult to provide close protection every time.

I aimed for such Kina.

I secretly infiltrated her accommodation, which I had identified in advance, ambushed her, and… subdued her for sure.

Perhaps after today, she will not be discovered by anyone for about two days.

Because I tied her up so securely that she couldn’t scream or move.

In addition, I even gave instructions to the subordinates guarding the outside, imitating her appearance with ‘Strategic Disguise,’ not to interfere.

No one would bother looking for her.

Anyway, disguised as Kina, I boldly came to the Elijah Building.

‘Is this wearing clothes, tearing them, or going naked?’

I was wearing the style that Kina had decided to wear today and hung on the hanger.

A tank top that barely covered her chest and hot pants that couldn’t even cover half of her thighs.

On top of that, black stockings with holes so big that it was hard to tell whether they were stockings or nets.

It was an outfit that I, as a man, would never wear, but conversely, I would never want my lover or opposite sex to wear.

I was going to bury today’s events deeply in my memory as my own.

Even if I wore it for ‘disguise,’ what if someone found out that I wore this kind of outfit…?

I don’t even want to think about it.

“Have you come, Ms. Kina.”

“Thanks for your hard work. Oh, I left my master card behind… I don’t want to make you do something annoying, so should I go back?”

There were more security facilities inside the Elijah Building than I thought.

I had to pass through several intermediate checkpoints, and each time I had to present my master card or use fingerprint recognition.

In preparation for this case, I deliberately brought shopping bags full of both hands. As if I had been shopping.

And I asked the security guard in a nonchalant manner. Whether to bring the card.

If I were an ordinary guild member, I would have told him to bring it. That’s what the security guard’s job is.

But wasn’t the appearance I was disguised as the appearance of Kina, one of the executives?

So, the security guards’ reactions were different.

“No. I’ll scan it for you. Please don’t forget to bring it next time.”

“Sorry, honey. Thanks for always working hard. You know I watch you every time, right? Thank you so much.”

“You’re welcome. Please take care of me next time.”

“Okay, thank you!”

Kiss!

The security guard’s face turned red when I kissed him on the cheek with lips painted with black lipstick.

Of course, it’s all calculated behavior.

In fact, Kina enjoys doing these things. She was a person who should not be confined to the frame of a typical woman.

Soon, I arrived at the VIP elevator and, as expected, encountered an agent guarding the front.

I know that this elevator never stops on other floors.

It is a special elevator that connects directly from the first floor to the top floor, called the Secret Area.

Of course, no one can dare to board it unless they are an executive-level person.

According to a rumor I heard in the past, one of the group members who accidentally got on here was brutally killed by Elijah.

For the sole reason that he dared to enter the owner’s space without permission.

It’s not a confirmed rumor, but considering his pride as an apostle, it’s likely to happen.

“Sorry. I forgot my master card in the car.”

“It’s okay. Who in our guild doesn’t know Ms. Kina? Don’t worry.”

As expected, the security guard scanned the master card for me like a free pass.

This is because the ability to perfectly copy someone’s appearance, like ‘Strategic Disguise,’ is very rare in the first place.

In other words, there was no room for doubt.

Usually, disguises are made by imitating only the face or making people mistaken with distorted vision.

This type of disguise was already filtered out in the process of passing through the checkpoint.

The Elijah Group was not a neighborhood gang, and they were definitely doing that level of security.

However, there was no way to detect the ability to copy all the elements of a person, such as the strategic disguise buff.

So, VVIP could have been a very difficult enemy, but he foolishly came to me and lost his life.

If that bastard was watching the current situation in the afterlife, he would have been turned upside down several times.

‘VVIP bastard was doing this disgusting disguise from time to time?’

It’s terrible just to think about it.

On the one hand, the relationship with the Secret Dungeon that I had with VVIP felt special.

If he hadn’t been interested in me at that time… I would have had a hard time tracking the apostles.

Nicholas would not have intended it, but the existence of the Secret Dungeon itself was a huge turning point.

‘First of all, no one recognizes my existence, that is, Kang Shin-hwa. Elijah and Bellic wouldn’t know either.’

The situation was good.

My existence, which suddenly crossed over from Korea to the United States with strategic disguise and space movement buffs, was not known.

This means that there will be no noisy events in the world with my face.

I wanted to deal with Elijah very privately and secretly.

From my point of view, Elijah is the right ‘guy to kill’, but that’s not the case in the eyes of the world.

If I kill Elijah in the name of Kang Shin-hwa right away, I will be caught in the Awakened Special Act.

Murder without a reason is unconditionally sentenced to death.

And in court, the defense that I killed the apostle Ricannella – Elijah – who would become the evil of the future as a returner… would never work.

So, I disguised myself like this to skip the annoying process.

[You have arrived at the Secret Area. Entry of members who are not group executives is strictly prohibited.]

Soon, an announcement was heard.

Unlike the general elevator announcement, I heard a very low, cold female voice.

A chilling voice that wouldn’t be awkward to insert into a horror movie right away.

“…….”

The elevator was filled with silence.

The only thing that filled the entire top floor was the red line that was shining alone in the dark.

The red line took the form of dividing the boundary between the wall and the moving floor.

In particular, the walls were all made of mirrors from the entrance to the end.

The interior scenery reflected infinitely in the mirror was so deep that it was impossible to fathom.

My disguised name was written in front of the rightmost room closest to the entrance.

It’s Kina’s office.

However, there is nothing I can do in her office right now. Above all, there is no way to recognize it.

But right then.

Tak, tak.

The sound of shoe heels was heard from the deepest part of the Secret Area.

Soon, what appeared was.

It was Elijah and Bellic.

The two continued to go through iris recognition several times as they moved towards the elevator.

There seemed to be a separate security procedure, but it also showed that the traps were deactivated by iris recognition.

‘This whole area is a trap itself. It’s really meticulous.’

I was once again surprised by Elijah’s preparedness.

I expected it, but he was securing the secret space with double and triple security.

The authentication process would be annoying every time – at least that’s what I thought. – Elijah didn’t seem to mind at all.

‘If I kill Elijah and prepare a solution for the Great Tribulation… then Leccero is the end.’

I reminded myself of the target again.

There are two guys left.

When the two guys disappear from my life forever, the life of retirement will come to me forever at the same time.

“…….”

I bowed politely to Elijah and Bellic, who were walking towards me.

In the first place, Elijah, who values ​​etiquette and formality, would not find this level of appearance strange.

Gulp-

I swallowed my saliva without realizing it.

Just because I came with confidence doesn’t mean I’m not nervous.

“What are you going to do when you meet Akero?”

“I don’t know why he can’t get out of the dungeon, but… I don’t want to keep him alive.”

I can hear Elijah and Bellic’s voices.

They were talking in a low voice, but I could hear them well because my hearing was maximized.

Akero is like a thorn in Elijah’s side.

I thought he would definitely be interested, but he was caught as expected.

Tak. Tak. Tak.

50m, 30m, 15m, 5m…….

Before I knew it, the distance between me and the two had narrowed to within two steps.

Bellic was still looking at Elijah like a sunflower, and Elijah took out his smartphone as if he had thought of something.

The next moment.

“Haaap!”

With a shout, he spewed out the poison he had been hiding until now in an instant.

Strike first!

Two of the three must die today.

That was my goal.
