Return of the Sword God-Rank Civil Servant novel Chapter 192

Su-ho had successfully blinded all the Inagawa guild members.

Then, he immobilized them with Pressure Points and Paralysis Points, stacking them up neatly.

Standing up, Su-ho gestured to Song Kang-cheon’s elite subordinates with a flick of his finger.

"Come here. All of you."

But not a single one dared to step forward.

Sigh.

These idiots.

Why did people always make him repeat himself?

Thankfully, the quick-witted Kim Hyun-seok immediately stepped up.

Su-ho glanced at him.

"Hyun-seok, looks like you’re the only one here with a working brain."

"Haha... Thank you, sir."

"No need to thank me."

Su-ho patted him on the shoulder before swiftly closing the distance between himself and the hesitant subordinates.

Then, one by one, he struck their Pressure, Paralysis, and Eye Points, putting them in the same state as the Inagawa members.

Pointing at the now-unconscious subordinates, Su-ho turned to Kim Hyun-seok.

"I need to have a little chat with your boss. Clean this mess up while I’m gone. This place is already a wreck, but we shouldn’t leave trash lying around."

"Ah, yes, sir! Understood!"

"Oh, and Hyun-seok. Did you finish writing down what I asked for earlier?"

"Yes, here it is!"

So he’d already found some paper and a pen.

Su-ho skimmed the document and nodded.

"What were today’s trade goods?"

"I wrote them down separately as well."

Kim Hyun-seok pulled out another sheet of paper.

Impressed, Su-ho pursed his lips.

"Oho... Not bad. No wonder you were part of the elite squad."

"Haha, thank you, sir."

He looked genuinely pleased.

Well, at least that made things easier.

Su-ho patted his shoulder before turning his attention back to Song Kang-cheon.

Dragging {N•o•v•e•l•i•g•h•t} the guild leader to a corner, he released his pressure points.

"Ghahhh...!"

Song Kang-cheon gasped for air, his entire body drenched in cold sweat.

Understandable.

He had never experienced blindness before.

And it had completely shattered his confidence.

No, more than that—he was now terrified of Su-ho.

Su-ho loomed over him and spoke.

"Sit properly."

"Y-yes, sir!"

Without hesitation, Song Kang-cheon dropped to his knees.

Su-ho continued.

"You see that? Your men, the Inagawa members—everyone’s been dealt with. It’s over. Cooperate, or you’ll stay blind for the rest of your life."

"Y-yes, sir! I understand...!"

"Good. Now, take out all the trade goods. Don’t bother trying to be clever—your men already confessed everything."

"...Understood."

The effectiveness of real-life experience was undeniable.

Song Kang-cheon obediently began pulling out items from his inventory.

Su-ho sifted through them until something caught his eye.

"Well, well... Look what we have here."

He lifted a long sword, nearly 2 meters in length.

It was the legendary "Yi Sun-sin’s Longsword," a national treasure of Korea.

It wasn’t the actual sword Yi Sun-sin used, but it held immense symbolic value.

In today’s world, system-related items and skill books were considered the most valuable assets.

But cultural artifacts still held immense worth.

For centuries, collectors had hoarded artwork and relics.

And when it came to historical figures, few were as revered as Admiral Yi Sun-sin.

The sheer historical and patriotic value of this artifact was immeasurable.

Which made this situation all the more infuriating.

This wasn’t some foreign thief smuggling out Korean artifacts.

This was a Korean selling out his own country’s treasures for personal profit.

And to Japan, of all places?

Alongside the sword, Su-ho also secured mana stones and various other items.

Clicking his tongue, he turned to Song Kang-cheon.

"Tsk, tsk. You should’ve known better."

"I-I’m sorry...."

"Of course you are. That’s why, as of this moment, Raid Guild is officially dissolved. You will be held accountable for smuggling every single national treasure and cultural artifact you’ve stolen. Any objections?"

"......."

No answer.

Silence might be golden, but not in this situation.

Su-ho lowered his voice.

"I asked you a question."

"N-no, sir! No objections...!"

This translation is the intellectual property of Novelight.

"The world has changed. Smuggling mana stones is just as illegal as smuggling gold now. You’ve been living easy for far too long. It’s time you reaped what you sowed."

"......."

Su-ho finished cross-checking Kim Hyun-seok’s inventory list and gathered all the illicit items.

Then, he turned back to Song Kang-cheon.

"Kang-cheon."

"Y-yes?"

"I’m about to press a pressure point I’ve never tried before. It might feel unsettling, but trust me and bear with it."

"W-wait, what?!"

"Here we go."

Su-ho traced his fingers around Kang-cheon’s ears, searching for the right spot.

Then—

Press.

[ Pressure Point Technique activated. ]

Success.

This time, he had targeted the "Ear Point," a pressure point that induces deafness.

Su-ho spoke.

"Kang-cheon, can you hear me?"

"......."

No response.

Of course not.

The technique had worked perfectly.

Seeing Su-ho’s lips moving without sound, Song Kang-cheon turned pale as realization dawned upon him.

"My... My ears...!"

"Nice. Worked like a charm."

Definitely a genius.

Satisfied, Su-ho struck another pressure point, knocking Kang-cheon unconscious.

Then, just to be thorough, he sealed his sight and voice as well before storing him in the subspace house.
