"Wait! Are you telling me that you are Agent D?" The man finally put the puzzle pieces together.

"Bingo! I never thought you won't get it! At least you are not dumb and realized it sooner." Eunji said in a kidding tone.

Eunji fired another shot and another man fell down from the third floor to the ground floor.

'Come on! I'm tired of playing this game.' Eunji thought.

'He's no fun at playing.' She added.

A moment of silence passed, gunshots had stopped and Eunji was out of target.

Then, they heard a loud scream coming from where their boss was hiding.

"You said you wanted to make me pay for killing your son… but why are you hiding?" She suddenly spoke behind him making the man to scream in fright.

"Ahhh! Damn you!" He cursed at her and turned around.

"Just like your son, I'll give you ten seconds to speak up or else I'll blow up this whole place together with everyone." Eunji warned.

"Do you really think I'm afraid of you? You're just a coward! You're hiding your face underneath the mask. Why don't you show your face? Are you afraid that we'll know your identity and hunt your relatives?" His guess hit the nail but Eunji tried to ignore him.

"Old man...Better start talking before I blow your head. I'm not a nice person. We both know that by now, right?" Eunji said in a monotonous tone.

"You would never want to see my face...Why? There are only two types of people whom I allowed to see my face. The first one, they are my family and close friends. The second one, that...you don't want to belong on that second category. Because the second one, what awaits them is death." Eunji said in an eerie voice that made the old man to break into sweat.

"Well since you know my identity as Agent D. Then you are as good as dead." She added.

'Gosh! Since when did I become so chatty?' Eunji thought to herself.

Then she started counting.

"Ten...nine...eight..."

Oh gosh! She loved it. She loved the feeling of seeing the fear in their eyes when she started counting.

She's not a monster, a demon for nothing.

She wanted to inflict fear in her target before she killed them.

"Seven...six...six and a half..." Eunji's voice became creepy as her counting was about to end.

At first the man was stubborn. He didn't want to admit that a woman could beat him in this field.

But he also heard of her reputation in the mercenary world. She gained the fifth spot by killing the owner of the title.

She's a force not to mess with.

Rumor had it that she might be targeting the mercenaries in the upper ranks and plan to execute them one by one.

Had he known it earlier, he would never dare to accept the job of wanting to kill her.

They're not a mercenary group to begin with.

As the countdown was almost over, Eunji's aura became more terrifying. And then she aimed the riffle into his head.

"Still not speaking up? They won't be able to help you."

Then she fired a shot on the man hiding to her right and was aiming at her.

The man died on the spot.

There were ten more people who was aiming for her head but they dared not to shoot because she was using their leader as her shield.

"Three...two...o-"

"Wait!" He interrupted her finally.

"I'll tell you what I know!" He said desperately.

If he died, his three families would be in chaos. His children would lose their father and he still wanted to live.

"But promise me that you won't kill me."

Eunji had already expected that and smirked at him.

"You're not in the position to negotiate with me, do you even know that?" Eunji told him.

"But I want to live for the sake of my children. I may not be a good husband but I want to be a good father for them. So please let me live for their sake." He said desperately

"You should have thought about it before you stepped in this dirty world." She told him in a matter of fact tone.

"As I said before...do you really think I'll let you go after you know my identity as Agent D?"

"No." He said in defeat.

"Don't worry, after your death, I'll take good care of them. I'll make sure that they won't know what kind of person you really are." It was a promise that she would fulfill.

"Now speak." Eunji said.

"Two months ago, I received an email from an anonymous sender telling me to kill Agent D of CIA. For a week, he sent me an email of your routine whenever you come to the HQ." He said.

"Last night, I receive another email that you would be coming to the HQ to report and that's when I ask my son to do it for me. I had something else to do earlier. I never knew the name of the person. I never dared to ask what his reasons were for wanting to kill you, too." He said honestly said.

Eunji's gaze turned gloomy when she heard it.

Only one person knew that she would be coming to the US to report.

Also, this person knew her identity as a mercenary. At what rank, she didn't tell him.

Inside the CIA office building, Rodrigo was smiling triumphantly.

He thought his plans had worked really well.

That he was able to eliminate Agent D and no one could threaten him in his position as the CIA director.

Thus, he decided to go home to have a good sleep. He wanted to feel the sweetness of his victory.

He went home in his apartment and had ordered take out for his dinner.

Since he was living alone, he had no energy to cook food for himself when he came home and relied on take-out meals.

So he ordered pizza for dinner and prepared a bottle of wine to complete the celebration.

He then started whistling as he slowly unbuttoned the top two buttons of his white shirt.

He turned on the TV and then played a basketball game while waiting for his delivery.

Then finally, the doorbell rang and then he lazily got up from the couch and walked towards the door.

To his surprise, when he opened the door, a familiar person was standing on his doorstep holding the pizza box.

"Agent D? What are you doing here?" He sounded so casual but deep down, he was trembling.

"Why? I just want to exchange a few pointers with my former superior at work about how to properly create a successful assassination plan towards me? Right? Director-nim?" Eunji smirked as she saw a hint of panic on his face.

"Don't you want to let me in? You've ruined my mood. Entertain me a little bit, will you?" Eunji said as she came inside his apartment uninvited.

"Daebak! You're watching an NBA game tonight?" Eunji said as she sat down comfortably on the couch ignoring Rodrigo's ugly face.

"Oh come on! I just want to know why you wanted me dead. So don't look at me like that, okay?" She looked at him with a scared expression on the face. Like she was about to receive a punishment from him.

As he looked at her, he knew that his plan failed.

He wanted to call those bastards who promised to kill Eunji/Agent D but he just realized that his phone was out of battery.

He could only curse inwardly for being such an idiot.

"You want to call them? I'm afraid they won't be able to answer your call at the moment because they're dead." Eunji spoke calmly as if what she was talking to him was something irrelevant.

He knew it! One thing that he had learnt from Eunji's behavior was that she would never let those who wronged her off the hook.

"You know what, I planned to let you off the hook since you're useless. I even planned to burn all of the materials that I have against you. Unfortunately, you made a move that angered me." Eunji told him which made Rodrigo to gulp in fear.

He knew he was doomed.

"What are you talking about? I don't have such plan. They must be lying. Why should I hire them to kill you?" He tried to fight her with reason.

"I don't know...I'm not you. And besides, I won't be coming over here if I know the answer." Eunji said.

She came here to make sure that no one bigger was something behind it. That no one asked him to do it.

"I'm telling the truth. I really don't know what you're talking about." He said as he tried to calm her nerves.

Eunji then pulled a dagger from her boots and finally spoke, "If I were you, I would spill the beans before I'll kill you."

Seeing that the man had no plans in admitting to her, Eunji had no other choice but to be ruthless.

Within a split seconds, she dashed towards him and knocked him on the ground and then she straddled him while pressing both of his arms with her feet and pointing the dagger she was holding on his neck.

"Do you want to experience how to die in my hands or do you still want to live inside prison. You choose Rodrigo." Eunji gave him the option to choose.

"I...I'll tell you...please spare me!" Eunji didn't let go even if the man was pleading for his life.

Though she saw that the man was about to confess, Eunji still did not relax.

"Speak!" Eunji growled.

"You left me with no choice." He said.

"If I let you live, there's no guarantee that you won't--" but before he could even continue what he wanted to say, Eunji cut his throat with her dagger.

She killed him on the spot since no one forced him to do it but himself.

After killing the man, she then got up and set the whole apartment on fire.

After watching the whole apartment on fire, she left when the firemen came to respond.

While she was walking on the dark alley, a black car stopped when she came out in the highway.

The man driving the car then got out and opened the backseat for her.

"Mistress!" The chauffeur greeted her and beckoned for her to enter.

Eunji lazily got inside the and didn't bother to tell him where to.

The car brought her into the airport where her private plane was waiting.

"Have a safe flight Mistress!" The man bowed down his head as he wished her a safe flight.

"Thank you, John. I'm sorry if I created a mess for you to fix." She told the man as she disappeared inside the private plane.

The chauffeur was none other than the police chief which accompanied her earlier in the gang's base.

"Don't worry Mistress, there's nothing I can manage." He said even if Eunji was no longer in sight.
