The Crazy Villain Regains His Sanity

Episode 326

started at the White House.

Although it was a very stealthy move, it was impossible to avoid the party’s eyes.

Although its influence has weakened significantly, the party is still the mainstream of America.

This movement was immediately conveyed to the phantom.

“The government is starting to move.”

“Why is it like this all of a sudden? “Have those flowery guys in your head made up their minds?”

Phantom clicked his tongue lightly as he watched Maxim Geddes speaking calmly.

“Still thinking simple.”

“Is there something hidden behind the scenes?”

“Yes. “Herbert, even though he walks around smiling, he is a very clever guy on the inside.”

“There are many unlucky times. “When I see them interfering in every incident and trying to consolidate their power.”

That’s why Phantom brought Choi Jun-ho in, even if it meant risking a lot of blood loss.

I thought that only by eliminating Leviathan, who controlled the Atlantic Ocean, could I keep Herbert, who was rampaging over there, in check.

The party, currently trapped in North America, has a narrow stage to regain its former strength.

“It is true that he is capable. Herbert’s policy direction is correct. “If we eliminate Leviathan and place the Atlantic Ocean within our sphere of influence, we will be able to take control of it as well.”

“You had all that in mind.”

“He won’t be defeated easily. “There will be strong resistance, but your role is important then.”

The relationship between the party and the government is now closer to a strategic partnership.

Conflicts over leadership were taking place at every turn, the most intense of which was over the hunt for Leviathan.

The winner for that was the party.

The government’s move this time could be seen as a last struggle.

Maxim Geddes saw it that way.

“Please leave it to me. Then, shouldn’t I just join this operation? “I think it’s a good opportunity.”

“no.”

“Why are you stopping me?”

“Because this is not our operation.”

Of course, if you send Maxime Geddes, the operation will be successful. Even though he had a rough side, he was unrivaled in perfectly executing his target.

Phantom came up with a guess.

“However, it is unlikely that Herbert did it alone.”

“What else is there?”

“Headbreaker.”

“Why does that name suddenly appear?”

Maxim Geddes was having fun. Phantom understood the Lion King’s reaction.

The bad relationship between himself and the Lion King still came out in nightmares.

“There is a high probability that behind Herbert’s move is a head breaker.”

“Does that mean that the government and Headbreaker joined hands?”

“right.”

“Certainly that explains why Herbert, who has a flower garden in his head, moved.”

It was Herbert who was passive in clearing out the league, fearing that he would be harmed. He showed extreme restraint in conflict with the League, to the extent that some people even rumored that he was a spy for the League due to his actions.

It’s natural that the people who criticized it like that don’t understand it when they look at it now. However, when Choi Jun-ho enters the story, the story changes.

“Maybe the headbreaker moved.”

“He planned something like that?”

“What you need to be more careful about is what he wants.”

Those who forgot Choi Jun-ho’s existence and carried out their work were inevitably defeated. Maxim Guedes trembled as he recalled Choi Jun-ho’s inaction that was beyond imagination.

“Is this hacking?”

“He’s probably trying to get that gift.”

It is already secretly known that Choi Jun-ho can steal the gift. No one knows that he hunted the Thunderbird and obtained the divine beast’s gift of high-speed flight.

It showed a range of movement that was beyond imagination, as if ridiculing predictions that it would be difficult for the human body to handle.

We cannot rule out the possibility that behind Herbert’s quick move, Choi Jun-ho personally went to Washington and had a meeting at the White House.

“What we will do is quietly observe the government’s work without interfering with it. “We cooperate with the government until the Atlantic Ocean is opened.”

“It’s unfortunate, but I understand.”

Maxim Geddes nodded obediently.

I sat down with Vice President Daniel Logan.

He, who was in LA in person, was in talks to come together on Herbert’s behalf.

Herbert granted my request, but the problem was that he was more cautious than I thought.

“I can’t detect it on the news or around me at all. Is it okay to do this?”

“The eyes of the league are all over the country.”

Daniel revealed that the league’s greatest strength exists in the United States and that the number of people who sympathize with its ideology is so large that it is difficult to estimate. So, it is said that the league detects even the slightest movement.

He said that only by moving so carefully that even I would not notice, he would be able to convey information to the league through speed control, and that even that would be done with great care.

“Hacker is one of the most important superhumans in the league. “As long as they know you’re here, they won’t be so quick to move hackers there.”

“If there isn’t one, there is no point in cooperating.”

“But the league will have no choice but to move.”

“Is that fortress that important?”

Daniel nodded without hesitation.

“It is the safest place to protect the league forces in the United States and send them abroad.”

Daniel advised that the league would persistently raise doubts about my government’s cooperation, and that when those doubts were lifted, it would be time for me to make a move.

“Maybe they sent the hacker now.”

Keep all directions open, but move when the rig becomes even a little loose. He said that was the time when I could get everything I wanted.

In fact, when I looked at it, it sounded like a statement that may or may not exist in the end.

However, 100% and 50% probability of non-existence are completely different.

“You’re doing a good job.”

“I hope the government will accept that we want to get along well with the headbreakers.”

“It’s not difficult to understand. However, it is a bit disappointing that the current president does not have much time left in his term.”

Herbert, who was re-elected a year ago, now has a little less than three years left in his term.

As I travel around these days, I feel that if there is a politician with whom I can communicate well, things become easier in many ways. Moreover, in the United States, there are many places to exploit in the future, so it is important to secure like-minded partners.

Then wouldn’t it be okay to extend the regime?

If there can be no more Herberts, a like-minded person can become president.

That kind of person happens to be right in front of you.

I thought this was a good idea.

“Why are you doing this?”

Daniel, who caught my gaze, made a shocked expression.

It has good sensitivity. Scores were added inside me.

“Now that I think about it, I understand that the vice president’s political career is quite long.”

“That’s true, but…”

“And since he also serves as the chairman of the Senate, he will have extensive experience in government affairs.”

Daniel hastily shook his head.

“no. That’s something close to an honorary position. “My job is to support Herbert when he goes astray, act as a bridge between the government and the ruling party, and comfort the opposition party members.”

If that’s the case, isn’t he actually doing his job as president?

The score got higher in my mind.

As my gaze became more persistent at the Vice President, his eyes began to shake violently.

Anyone who sees it will think I’m trying to eat it.

“Why on earth are you doing that?”

“Vice President. “Are you planning on running in the next presidential election?”

In my last life, I had never heard of a President Daniel Logan in the United States.

What’s wrong with that?

Cheon Myeong-guk also became president, so there is no reason why Daniel Logan, who has extensive political experience, cannot become president.

“….”

Daniel Logan’s expression turned white when he received my suggestion.

* * *

Jeong Da-hyeon, who had been busy hunting for a while, came to see me. And then he expressed his gratitude.

“thank you.”

“what?”

“Overall. “Did you help me with my parents’ work?”

Now that I think about it, I heard that the reason Jeong Da-hyeon can move around freely is because her parents don’t bother her.

Since they have candy in their hands right now, they must be busy tasting it.

It was annoying, but it didn’t take a lot of effort.

“There was nothing to do or help. Regardless of personality, your parents have skills. I introduced him to something that suited his skill level. “There won’t be any trouble in the future.”

“Still. “If I had tried to solve it, I would still be suffering.”

“Just thinking that you can solve the shadow that seems impossible to escape is a big step forward.”

“I see.”

I didn’t want to continue the conversation on a topic that wasn’t very interesting or interesting, so I changed the topic.

“How about hunting American monsters?”

“great. “Like in Korea, you don’t have to search for a long time to find monsters, and monsters live fierce lives.”

They say that because there are so many things I have wiped out in Korea, finding high-level monsters is also a task.

Although it was a blessing at the national level, it must have been a hardship for Jeong Da-hyun, who was looking for monsters.

It’s also something I’ve never heard from other awakened people.

That’s probably why Jeong Da-hyun is special.

“I think I hunted aimlessly.”

That’s what it said, but it wasn’t like that at all.

Jeong Da-hyun’s desire to throw off her restraints and become level 8 was stronger than ever.

When I remembered that the diplomatic mission that came with me to the United States was returning soon, I told Dahyun Jeong.

“Then stay in America for the time being.”

“yes? Anyway, I’m also an employee…”

“Because I’m also in charge. I have some business left to do in America, so I plan to stay a little longer. “I’ll tell the president.”

If I said it was my responsibility, Cheon Myeong-guk wouldn’t say anything.

“I’m sorry, but I will gratefully accept it.”

“The president will like it if you become a superhuman.”

“I guess I’ll have to live up to expectations.”

Jeong Da-hyeon’s expression, which had been somewhat depressed, brightened.

* * *

After letting Jeong Da-hyeon focus on hunting, I received information about the league’s movements through Daniel.

He said that there is movement in the league, as if they have heard that the U.S. government is preparing to attack the fortress, and that a fierce battle for wits is unfolding.

There were many League spies in the United States, and the United States was also aware of the League’s movements through various reconnaissance assets, so they clashed to assess each other.

Every time I saw Daniel Logan, who came to tell me what was going on, he looked like hell.

The reason was simple.

Every time I see him, I encourage him to run for office. I thought I was the only one with weak firepower, so I talked to Herbert, and he complained that he was suffering from both sides.

There is nothing I can do about it once it catches my eye. From what I heard, Herbert has been talking to Daniel Logan about running for president ever since he entered politics.

Still, you still hold on, this is no ordinary stubbornness.

However, I indirectly influenced Cheon Myeong-guk, who was not interested in politics, in his decision to run for office.

It’s not difficult to do twice what you did once.

About a month later, Daniel Logan urgently sought me out, saying it was important information.

“This is information that a hacker has entered the fortress.”

“Are you sure?”

“It’s half and half.”

They said they are monitoring each other, but the league is putting so much effort into dealing with hackers that they cannot guarantee reliability.

“Maybe it’s a trap. No, it’s half as likely to be true as half as likely to be a trap.”

It is said that the league pulled a card in a boring standoff.

It could be a hacker’s arrangement or a trap.

There isn’t any cool information.

“Ultimately, I have to go there.”

“It’s dangerous.”

“There is no danger in going out to catch prey.”

Unless you can 100% confirm that a hacker came, you have no choice but to rely on guesses.

Even if you don’t catch it, you’ll probably get caught someday if you raid other strongholds.

[Aren’t you upset because you’ve been waiting for a month?]

Oh, that can’t be possible.

[That’s right.]

Ultimately, it doesn’t matter if it’s a trap.

If it’s a trap, that means that much power has been accumulated.

Since it saved me the trouble of looking for it one by one, it should live up to my expectations.

I got up and headed towards the fortress.
