In the heart of Seoul, where the city's vibrant lights cast shadows deep enough to conceal even the darkest secrets, Hyeong Shin emerges from retirement with a single, unyielding purpose: to eliminate Michael, the most dangerous adversary he has ever faced. At 70 years old, Hyeong Shin is no ordinary assassin; he is a legend with 63 years of experience, honed by countless missions carried out with cold precision under the command of a shadowy organization known as "The SSS ranks."Michael was once the leader of The Circle, a brother-in-arms to Hyeong Shin. But the bond of brotherhood shattered when Michael betrayed the organization, seeking to seize power for himself. His betrayal left The Circle fractured, vulnerable, and desperate to reclaim control. Knowing that only one man could succeed in eliminating Michael, The Circle turns to Hyeong Shin, their greatest asset.However, age has taken its toll on Hyeong Shin. Though his skills are unmatched, his body no longer possesses the agility and strength it once did. Desperate to complete the mission and settle the score with the man who had betrayed everything they once stood for, Hyeong Shin undergoes a perilous ritual that restores his youth and vitality. The procedure is as ancient as it is dangerous, but the transformation is successful. Rejuvenated, Hyeong Shin is ready to take on the challenge that lies ahead.The mission is clear: track down Michael, who has established himself as an untouchable power in the underworld, and eliminate him. But this task is far from straightforward. Michael is no ordinary target; he is a mastermind with resources and connections that run deep. Every step Hyeong Shin takes is met with resistance, from assassins loyal to Michael to traps set to lure him into a deadly game of cat and mouse. As Hyeong Shin moves through the city’s dark alleys and towering skyscrapers, the narrative delves into the history between him and Michael. Flashbacks reveal a time when they fought side by side, bound by a shared loyalty to The Circle. Michael’s betrayal is a wound that cuts deep, driving Hyeong Shin not just to complete the mission, but to confront the personal betrayal that has haunted him for years.With The Circle backing him, Hyeong Shin is armed with the best intelligence and resources available. But the deeper he dives into the mission, the more he realizes that The Circle’s motives are not as straightforward as they seem. As he inches closer to Michael, he uncovers secrets that shake his faith in the organization he has served for so long. Loyalties are tested, and the line between friend and foe blurs as Hyeong Shin navigates a web of deception, all while keeping his eyes on the ultimate prize—Michael’s head. The climax of the story is a breathtaking showdown between Hyeong Shin and Michael, set in a labyrinthine fortress that Michael has turned into his stronghold. The battle is as much psychological as it is physical, with both men using every ounce of their training and experience to outmaneuver the other. The Circle watches from the shadows, their true intentions only becoming clear as the final confrontation unfolds.In the end, Hyeong Shin emerges victorious, but the victory is bittersweet. The revelations uncovered during the mission force him to question everything he has ever believed in. The Circle, once a beacon of loyalty and order in his life, is revealed to be as corrupt and power-hungry as the enemies they sought to eliminate.

Investigation.

"It seems like someone is doing this intentionally, there's no explanation as to why only us SS ranks are getting rejuvenated, and why not others?" I asked; "Well, We tried investigating into this matter further down the road, and here's what we found, A human that is said to be able to manipulate flesh and muscle was spotted in a cave in Europe." Said a man from the group sitting behind her.

"I see, so that is what it was, I'm getting old now, I haven't been able to keep track of what was happening. If that might be the case, I will go to Europe myself to verify this."

"No, That would be stupidity, that is just saying you want to die without saying you want to die, that is just suicide."

"Well, whatever it might be, only my physical body has been rejuvenated, my mind hasn't, A killer will do whatever it takes to achieve what he wants."

She hesitated to let me go, but later decided that 3 of the SS ranks would also come with me.

That is how I'm in Europe right now, I'm currently in the country of Germany.

The so called humanoid creature was said to be found in Italy, But it's been a long time since I came here, So I have decided to enjoy for a while.

2 months had went by, and the 3 of us were enjoying life to the fullest, Swimming? Clubbing? Playing games? Sightseeing? Yeah, We did everything that could be done, now it was time for our flight to Italy.

"Oi Jack and Timothy, We are getting late, let's go or we will miss our flight." I called out to them, they nodded and we took a taxi to the airport.

"Sir John, Aren't we too early here...?"

"An Asian can never be too early."

"The flight is at 11 A.M. It is 9 A.M. currently."

"Well, Now that you mention it, you're right! Didn't think about that now, did I?" Said I, releasing a little laugh at the end of sentence.

Soon the 3 hours passed by as we entered the flight and sat down on our seats.

After all the passengers were on board, it was time to take off.

"All Passengers, Please tighten your seatbelt, prepare for take off." Said the pilot through the speaker.

The take off had succeeded peacefully and we loosened up the seatbelts.

"It feels so nice here in the business class, there's almost no one here."

"This all happened due to the Mistress being rich." Praised Jack and Timothy nods his head in agreement.

I could see Italy through the window seat, It truly was a magnanimous view as I had only travelled while blending into the crowd to catch my target off ground, I never actually managed to have fun..

I felt water droplets on my cheeks, then I asked myself, What is fun?

Could I ever have fun ever since my childhood days? I definitely couldn't...

I was built to kill and was thrown away in the end, But that is just the beginning for me, with this body, I'm going to do the same to the underworld as they did to me.

"Sir John, why are you crying?" Asked Timothy as he sat next to me.

"No this is nothing." I replied, wiping my face.

"Alright then, if you say so."

"All Passengers Please tighten up your seatbelts, we're preparing for landing now."

"Nah we aren't!" Sounds of screaming came from the cockpit, It sounded like a murder.

The plane was in a mess, civilians were screaming for help, as the murderer's subordinates hijacked the plane.

"Man, I didn't want to fight just yet, Seems like I have no choice!"

"Move! Jack and Timothy, Support me from behind!"

"Alright!" They nodded.

I kicked open the door to the cockpit to find it brutally covered in blood from the pilots.

"The hijacker is the co pilot.."

"That's right! Come die with us!"

"Ah, it's a member from the underworld, Timothy it's your time to shine!" Said I; Timothy rushed forward, with a strong tackle, The co pilot was sent flying to the direction of the seats.

"The whole plane will be caught up in this mess if we don't land safely now! Countless innocent lives will be lost!"

"Shit both I and Timothy don't know how to fly a plane!"

"I do, take care of everything else, don't let them hurt the civilians no matter what, I will fly the plane." I replied, Jack quickly rushed to help Timothy.

Later, I found out that whole plane's crew members were involved in this, Only the pilot was a decent human.

"Tie them up, We're going to use them as meat shields when we encounter that humanoid creature."

"Yes sir!" All of them were shortly caught afterwards and tied.

They resisted, but it was futile against the SS rank killers of the society.

"Even if our mind isn't adapted to this body, F rank killers like you aren't really the thing that is even a warmup for us, right Jack?"

"Yeah." Said Jack, in agreement to Timothy's sentence.

The main problem was the civilians who were traumatized by this event, I can't let this news go out, I have to stay as low profile as possible.

I picked up the microphone and reassured the citizens that everything was in control, I said it in English so many were confused, but I couldn't do anything about that since I don't have time to waste learning German.

The landing was a success, Italy's security demanded that we hand over those hijackers, We didn't have choice but to agree to them.

"We should get moving, We don't have any more time to waste, We only have a month to return to Seoul and report back to the Mistress."

"Right, Let's go."

The Cave was far away from our current location, we had no choice but to call a taxi and get as near as possible to the location.

"Now, It's time we are on alert."
