The Extra's Return-Chapter 33 The Black Box Organization (1)

?I opened my eyes just as dawn was about to break. Maybe around 3 to 4 a.m.

I quickly stood up and left the inn room. Without looking in the mirror, I could tell that my eyelids had turned black. My eyes have definitely changed like panda eyes.

Last night, I should have gone straight to bed after doing a short meditation. But I can't sleep for some reason. So I continued to meditate. Even being able to do meditation optimally is difficult.

I staggered out of the inn. As I exited the inn's entrance, I found the innkeeper carrying a bucket of water.

When he saw my anguished face, he asked with a happy smile.

"How was your evening, Customer?"

"Haha, I wish the walls could be thicker."

The innkeeper just laughed at my words. He must have understood what I meant.

"Please understand, sir. That is one of the advantages of this place."

"Haha, you must be joking."

Last night, for a long time, I was disturbed by the noise of other visitors.

Due to the thin walls of the room, the noise from visitors in other rooms can be heard very clearly. Though their voices should not be heard by minors. But, from the voices that I heard accidentally, they didn't try to lower their voices at all.

They continued to make sighs, moans, and groans until they echoed so clearly in the inn. Such voices jumped out from every room in this inn.

That's why it's hard for me to sleep.

Just by hearing their voices, I can imagine what scenes they present. They were clearly having sexual intercourse.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not the weird protagonist in most comics, where they'll peek until they spit blood from their nose.

Really, if I wasn't a patient person, I would have torn down this inn last night. Luckily I am patient with things like that.

"So, how was it? Would you like to stay here again?"

"No. More importantly. Where can I shower?"

I stopped talking about unimportant things. There's still something I need to do.

"I provide warm water for bathing. If you pay, I will send a bucket of water to your room. Or, behind the inn there is a well, it's free there, but it gets very cold in the morning like this."

"It's fine, I'll just go to the well behind the inn."

With that, I walked to the back of the inn and found a well.

It was still dark, where the sun had not yet risen. Therefore, I didn't hesitate to take off my clothes in the open and started to draw water for bathing.

Cold water and morning dew hit my skin. I felt a piercing coldness as I continued to splash water on my body.

"Hey, young man. Your stuff looks good. Do you want to play with your sister here? I'll give you a discount, what do you think about my offer?"

From the windows of the inn, a woman's voice was heard. She didn't appear to be dressed properly, and I could still see her cleavage.

She looked at me seductively. It was likely that she was a prostitute who was very noisy last night.

Even though she kept trying to tease me, I ignored her.

Is it because I'm used to the culture of the poor in this world? So, I didn't cover the area under my stomach and just pretended I didn't see her.

I was just rushing to finish my business.

I don't have time to deal with that red light girl.

After that, I put on my clothes and then go somewhere.

***

Far from the center of Ryam City, I arrived at a place. This place was located very secludedly even though it was still within the walls of Ryam City.

I walk on a muddy road.

All the buildings on the left and right of the street where I walked were made of wood. The buildings looked old and worn. There are even simple huts scattered around as well.

A very suffocating smell entered my nostrils. A sight full of trash filled my eyes. The smell of dirt, damp air, and disgusting smoke flew everywhere.

However, all of that has become normal for me. Walking along the dirt-strewn street, I felt a nostalgic feeling.

This place is the slum area, the place where I lived the days of suffering in my previous life.

However, I immediately threw away the nostalgic thoughts that were bothering me. I have to focus on doing something.

At dawn like this, people in the slum area are just entering bedtime because they are already active in various activities at night.

So, more or less I'm free to do something. The movement that I can do becomes more flexible than choosing the time of night. That's what made me choose to move when dawn just arrived.

The place I'm headed to is the Black Box Organization's headquarters.

There's only one reason why I woke up at dawn, that is, before I leave this city, I want to destroy the Black Box Organization's headquarters in Ryam City.

I still remember where their headquarters is in Ryam City. That's why I immediately came to this place.

Hiding in the shadow of a ramshackle house, I gazed at a seemingly ordinary building. In other words, the building was almost the same as the other buildings in the slum area.

However, I know that the building is the headquarters of the Black Box Organization.

Inside that building, there were people who had kidnapped and tortured me in my previous life. Therefore, I will eradicate them.

'Should I say that this is revenge?' f𝒓𝗲𝗲𝒘𝑒𝚋ｎoѵ𝒆𝗹.co𝗺

A small smile appeared on the corners of my lips. With a calm expression, I stepped out of the shadow of the shabby house, where I was hiding. I didn't forget to wear a cloth that partially covered my face to hide my identity.

I can't just rush into their base like an idiot, but I have to defeat the people assigned to monitor and guard their base first.

The people guarding and supervising did not stand in front of the building like the guards belonging to the nobles, but they disguised themselves as drunken vagrants in the middle of the street.

I came across a homeless man near their base. The bum was leaning against the wall with droopy eyes as if to tell everyone that he was really drunk.

At first glance, he looks like an ordinary tramp, however, I know that this person is one of the members of the Black Box Organization in charge of guarding the headquarters.

Just look at the weapons he hid nearby, maybe only ordinary kids wouldn't notice.

"He~ What's wrong with you, young man?"

"..."

"Why did you come here wearing such a face covering? Did you get lost?"

'Do I still look like a child?'

When he saw me, his glazed eyes turned clear instantly. In his eyes, I might look like a teenager who was dumped by my parents… Wait, I don't think that's wrong. The difference is, he mistook me for a weak teenager.

So, when he saw me, I could guess that he intended to kidnap me and use me as a begging or stealing tool. That's exactly what they did to me in my previous life.

"It seems you are drunk, Old Man. Wouldn't it be better for you to sleep forever?"

I replied sarcastically.

When he heard my taunt, he stood up as if he had never been drunk before.

I knew he was intent on attacking me.

However, in contrast to my previous life, where I couldn't fight back because I was weak, now, I already have enough strength if only to finish off the Black Box Organization members in Ryam City.

Therefore, without waiting for him to attack, I had already stepped forward. In an instant, I arrived behind him.

Without waiting for him to react, my arms wrapped around his neck. I locked his head with my left hand.

"Urghhh!"

And when he wanted to scream, I covered his mouth with the palm of my right hand.

"Mmm!"

This is useful so he can't scream for help.

The more I tighten the grip on his neck, the thinner the breath he can take.

Throughout the process, he kept clapping my hands. He also occasionally tries to untie the locks that are wrapped around his neck. However, he couldn't let go.

Moments later, he lost his previous strength. His body went limp for a moment. With lifeless bulging eyes, he no longer breathed.

Only then did I let go of my hand that was wrapped around his neck. Then, like pants, his body slid down and lay lifeless.

Yes, this is the first kill I've committed after the regression.

Well, nothing special really, or at least, that's what I thought. However, the unexpected happened instead.

[The Stigma of Darkness absorbs the Death Mana from the person you kill!]

[Starting the absorption process...]

I can feel a mysterious energy entering the Stigma of Darkness. Unfortunately, I don't know what it is.

[The Stigma of Darkness has successfully absorbed Death Mana.]
