I Became a Mafia in the Academy
chapter-295

Chapter 295

This was how Corleone’s advance party entered.

The first thing we do is take away the enemy’s vision. This is usually done by cutting off their power, which usually causes them to turn on their lanterns or use their abilities to illuminate their surroundings.

The opponent’s location is revealed in the process.

This would be enough, but since everyone in the Corleone attack party has night vision abilities or is equipped to operate at night, our enemies have to deal with us at a disadvantage from the start.

-Breaker down.

The voice of an organization member was heard in my in-ear.

A moment later, the lights in the dimly lit building went out in a flash, and our time arrived.

“I’m going in first.”

“I’ll follow.”

I turn the exterior door knob and enter the building.

The hallways are already pitch black and before stepping inside, I use my abilities to get a sense of my surroundings.

[Imprint – Wolf (Hunter of the Night): He is a wolf who hunts his enemies under the moonlight. He is a hunter who leads a large pack, undaunted by enemies larger than himself.]

A searing heat and pain radiates from the imprint in the form of a wolf.

At the same time, giant red wolves begin to form around me.

I walked into the building with them, my steps leisurely.

-Grrrrr!

-What the fuck is……!

Wolves are excellent hunters who herd their prey in packs.

It’s hard to stop a beast the size of a man who can maneuver in three dimensions with nimble movements.

The prey were simply oblivious to their surroundings and fell silently with a bite to the nape of the neck.

Exactly three minutes had passed when short bursts of noise began to be heard throughout the first floor.

The wolves scattered in all directions and walked back out into the hallway, signaling the end of the first floor cleanup.

“First floor cleaned. Moving to the second floor. Team 2 will enter through the stairwell across from you, while me and Team 1 will take this stairwell.”

“Roger that.”

The Enforcers moved like knives on command.

I and Team 1 head for the stairs as well, activating Aura Sonar just in case.

The faint aura spreads out around me like radar.

The layout of the seats it swept through is instantly visualized in my mind.

“Well, at least they’re prepared. Relay to team two to watch out for booby traps and ambushes from the second floor.”

“From the second floor? I’ll pass it on right away.”

While the area was being cleared, I wondered what the cadre of ‘naturalists’ were up to, and it turns out they were up to something cute.

“How about we go first and disarm the traps?”

He was concerned about the traps and mentioned disarming them to me first.

I shook my head to dismiss his idea, then glanced back at the wolves.

“Nah, never mind, we’ll keep it simple.”

“Simple?”

Whistle!

At the sound of a whistle, the wolves took off running toward the second floor.

The wolves, composed of both moonlight and Aura, raced toward the pre-planned traps.

“Everyone better cover their ears for a moment.”

While saying that.

Kwang───!

The building shook slightly as a huge explosion sounded from the second floor and near the stairs.

“Alright, let’s go straight up.”

“Ah……yes.”

Having a summoned beast was definitely useful in this part.

I wonder if this is what it would feel like for Latte to control the rats? Once again, I realize how useful her ability is.

“Now that I’ve cleared the traps on the first and second floors, we’ll take care of the rest.”

“Really? Well, please.”

I’ll need manpower from now on, as we’ll have to find and clear them one by one.

I nod and the guys from Team 1 start heading up to the second floor ahead of me.

I realize……now I’ll just have to take it slow.

Shoving my hands in my pockets, I slowly make my way upstairs and see the bustle of the gang.

They’re quick with their black-coated knives, swooping in and taking out their targets in a flash, and precise and clean with their movements.

They’re doing better than I thought I would.

Holy shit, I don’t even have to do anything.

After less than two minutes of standing still, Team Leader 1 and Team Leader 2 walk up to me and bow.

“The second floor is all cleaned up. Master.”

“Shall we go straight to the third floor?”

“Let’s do it. Continue like this to the fourth floor…….”

At that moment, I heard the voice of Team Leader 3 who was waiting outside from my in-ear.

-Master. We have confirmed a large group currently approaching this place from the outside.

“……A large group?”

-Yes, judging by their attire, they seem to be reinforcements for the ‘naturalist’ group.

‘Good. I was planning to take care of all the guys on the peninsula anyway, but they came here on their own.’

The next decision was quick.

“Teams one and two, go outside and take out the approaching horde of ‘naturists’ with team three.”

“And you, Master…….?”

“I’ll clear out the rest on my own and join you. Well, if you finish outside first, you can come help.”

Team Leader 1 sighs in response to my smirk.

“……I’ll be joining you shortly, take care of yourself, Master.”

“Yeah, you can bet I’ll take care of it first.”

Team Leader 2 bursts out laughing.

“And what are you going to do if we quickly clean up and go up?”

“Well, I’ll have to finish faster than that.”

I pat Team 2’s leader on the shoulder and heads up to the third floor.

“See you later.”

To be honest, I also wanted to run more wildly, so now I can go without controlling my strength.

Since I wasn’t yet accustomed to controlling the electric attribute, I was having difficulty adjusting the output, as I might inadvertently discharge into the surroundings.

This is something I’m getting better at while practicing with Kwak Chun-sik at the academy……but still, it would be cool to fight without worrying about that for now.

When I went up to the third floor, I saw the ‘naturalists’ waiting for me.

The red mushrooms on the floor and the grotesque appearance of the guys wearing protective suits.

“You’ve come this far, you’re finished! What lies ahead of you now is──”

“Red devil horn mushrooms, a poisonous mushroom that causes hallucinations, paralysis, and difficulty breathing just by smelling it. I know this is hard to get, but why do you always climb mountains?”

“Moo, what?!”

Since it’s just me, nothing much can happen. If I had come up with others, things would have been a hassle.

How did they get so many of these, anyway?

I slowly walked over and picked one up.

[Name: Red Devil Horn Mushroom]

[Rank: Rare]

[Type: Mushroom]

[Description: One of the most venomous poisonous mushrooms known. Just breathing near it causes paralysis, hallucinations, and difficulty breathing, and contact with it causes immense pain and poison infection. If you can remove the poison, it turns into an effective elixir.]

Anyway, I got to give these ‘naturalist’ bastards credit for their foraging skills.

I picked up one of the mushrooms and chewed on it.

[Consumes Red Devil Horn Mushroom!]

[Resist!]

[Talent [Invulnerable to Poison] resists the poison of the Red Devil Horn Mushroom!]

[Red Devil Horn Mushroom’s energy begins to flow through your body.]

[Your maximum aura has increased slightly.]

The naturalists look at the spectacle in disbelief.

“Boo, he’s chewing on a Red Devil Horn Mushroom, with no detoxification?”

“Uh, is that even possible?”

“He’s crazy……He’s really crazy…….”

I’m not sure what to make of this.

“Hey, can I take all this stuff?”

I pointed to the mushrooms still strewn across the floor, and one of the guys yelled at me.

“Damn it, just kill him!”

“……If you don’t want to give them, just say you don’t want to give them.”

Selfish bastards who want to keep the good stuff for themselves anyway. They really hate giving.

I pulled out my Tommy and pointed it at the guys who were trying to get to me.

They worked hard to create this field, so it’s only polite that I make the most of it.

“What do you think you’re going to do with that stupid old gun?”

“Everyone who said that to me is dead.”

──! / ──! / ──! / ──! / ──! / ──! / ──! / ──! / ──! / ──! / ──! / ──! / ──! / ──! / ──! / ──!

The cheerful sound of Tommy’s typewriter echoed through the building.

Still, the third floor seemed to be a gathering place for the strong ones, and most of them didn’t fall down when Tommy hit them.

Of course, they weren’t in their normal state.

“Ouch! It hurts like hell, but……I can take it.”

“Of course you can. So, can you take this one?”

The next thing I did was to set the Red Devil Horn Mushroom closest to them on fire with black flame.

The mushroom instantly burst into flames, spreading black smoke. The group scratched their heads, wondering what the hell I was doing.

“Ew, ew?!”

One by one, they grabbed their necks and started to collapse.

“What the……!”

“Yeah, you should have worn a sturdier suit.”

They wore hazmat suits to keep them safe from the Red Devil Horn Mushrooms but even then, a simple suit wouldn’t have protected them from Tommy’s bullets.

Eventually, the smoke from the red devil horn mushrooms began to enter the holes.

They had fallen into a trap of their own making.

“……I’m immune to poison!”

One of them shouted, lunging at me with all his might.

“Just eat the poison and go down, it’ll hurt less that way.”

I swapped to my shotgun and aimed at him.

-Boom!

I pull the trigger, and his body flies off into the distance, slamming into the wall.

With that, I finish off the others still standing with a few bullets.

None of them are moving.

“Okay, neat. Shall I grab what’s left?”

I pick up some Red Devil Horn mushrooms scattered around the floor and head to the last floor, the fourth.

“Excuse me~.”

As I broke down the door with my foot and went inside, the three guys turned their heads towards me from inside.

“I didn’t think you’d make it this far, you bastards from Corleone.”

He mutters, his voice filled with hostility.

At the same time, words appear above his head.

[Name: Gunnar]

[Affiliation: Naturalist]

[Description: The branch manager in charge of the Naturalist’s Northeast Asia branch]

That one must be the leader of the group that entered the peninsula. The other two are……just aides or something.

“Before I kill you, let me ask you a question. Why the hell…… are you doing this to us?”

He yells at me, wondering why the Corleone, whom he hasn’t had much contact with up until now, would be hunting them.

Well, I’m sure they don’t know, so I tell them.

“The zoo you attacked the other day. We were going to go there as a family.”

“……What?”

“Me, my dad, and my sister. We were going to have a picnic for the first time in a long time, but you ruined it.”

“What’s that…….?”

“You brought my sister to tears.”

His eyes widen in shock, as if he’s finally realized who I am.

“You can’t be……you’re Corleone Junior!”

“Your crime……is that you made my sister, the cutest of all the Corleone family, cry.”

I activated Black Mist ability and moved behind them in an instant.

Thrill──!

As if leaving an afterimage, a red electric current flows along the trail I ran.

As my delayed vision slowly returned to its original state, my ragged breath gradually steadied.

Kwalung───!

A lightning strike.

An attack that turned me into lightning, unleashing a devastating blast where I had been.

“Whoa…….”

I glanced back and saw the figures of three guys on the ground.

“Well, I would have finished them off faster.”

I walked over to the window and looked out at the battle outside.

They were putting up a formidable fight against a force many times their own.

As expected, they were fighting well.

But

“Well, I guess I won the bet.”

I can’t wait to get home.

But how am I supposed to eat the Shinrok?
