Chapter 389
Episode 389
Choi Jun-ho has returned.
Hyun-ah and Yong-yong, who decided to talk further, quietly watched Jun-ho Choi’s back as he walked away.
[I’m worried.]
“Which one?”
[I think that person will be hostile to us.]
“Maybe I’m overreacting.”
[Are you saying something like that after seeing what kind of attitude that person showed just a moment ago?]
The atmosphere around me fluctuated wildly. Hyuna, who was staring at Yongyong, muttered.
“There’s nothing to talk about so strongly.”
[I know I reacted strongly. But it’s true that I’m worried. That man’s thoughts are too dangerous. Extreme. Above all, there is no hesitation in taking action.]
“I am worried about that.”
There were moments that I could endure several times and move on. However, Choi Jun-ho had no hesitation in using his hands, as if patience had been eliminated.
This meant that conflict was conflict.
[And yet there will be no conflict with humans? That’s too good an idea.]
“You’re not wrong, Yong. But is there a way to stop it?”
[No. So it’s a problem.]
“It’s definitely a problem.”
One thing was clear.
Choi Jun-ho’s strength is making even Yongyong feel anxious. It must be because of human imperfection. Since I watched it from the side, it wouldn’t be an unreasonable story.
Hyuna offered words of comfort.
“Don’t worry too much.”
[Is there a reason to feel relieved?]
“There are definitely some things to worry about, but there are also things that can help us, right? “It helps us a lot to be human and have that much power.”
[That’s right.]
“And crucially, the human lifespan is not as long as you think.”
Even if Choi Jun-ho becomes a problem, the human lifespan is at most a hundred years.
Even so, it was impossible to show the same strength for a hundred years.
[You know that too.]
“Then can’t you be at ease?”
[I think that person would somehow figure out the secret to staying young. Wouldn’t life expectancy increase to 1,000 years?]
“….”
The moment she heard Yongyong’s comment, Hyuna’s expression became serious for the first time.
It has already surpassed human strength, so why didn’t I think that it would surpass lifespan?
“That could be possible.”
[Look, I’m right. But how can you be carefree! You can wait a hundred years, but a thousand years is a different story!]
“Shall we fall asleep deep underground together for a thousand years and then come back?”
I think everything will be over by then.
[You can say that!]
Yongyong, who had been quietly listening, suddenly exploded.
Because it was a ridiculous story, Hyuna chose to just endure Yongyong’s nagging.
“But I probably won’t live for a thousand years.”
* * *
After finishing talking with Hyuna, I immediately returned to Seoul.
I can’t say that the results from today’s meeting were good, but it was a harvest that convinced me that it was Shinsoo who caused the gift transformation.
“I don’t know who did that.”
Hyuna and Yongyong said they would cooperate to reveal the truth, but I didn’t 100% trust that.
Shinsoo is bound to take Shinsoo’s side in the end. Unless other divine beasts have committed some evil deed, they will stand on the divine beast’s side when the time comes.
This must also be taken into account before moving forward.
However, the truth that was not revealed to the two divine beasts is that blood feeding had not been created until now. What I have is that I brought it back from my last life, not from here.
It’s like interrogating me for something I haven’t done yet, but it’s none of my business.
When I returned to Seoul, I immediately went to see Cheon Myeong-guk and discussed the future situation.
Anyway, it was true that there was an accident.
But something unexpected struck me.
It was an attack by reporters.
“Choi Jun-ho is superhuman! “What do you think about what happened in Nanjing?”
“President Lu Jun, the Standing Committee members, and all high-ranking party officials were killed in full view of the world! “Is this a warning to the world?”
“Please say something!”
“Superman Choi Jun-ho! “Just one word!”
“Choi Jun-ho is a superhuman…!”
…Well, I was complacent.
I was caught as I was going in and out of a familiar path. Or rather, I don’t know how on earth they sensed my presence. Still, they didn’t infiltrate because it was the Blue House, so maybe they were taking advantage of that opportunity?
It seems that reporters’ information power is greater than I thought.
There was no reason to avoid the reporters anyway, so I turned around. The eyes of the reporters who made eye contact with me sparkled.
“It’s simple. “If you get caught, you go.”
Reporters reacted to what I said.
“Does that include foreign leaders?”
“You idiot, you’re already gone!”
“Then Japan! What will happen to Japan!”
“Is America the next target? “Please at least say a word!”
“Then that’s it.”
I left the screaming reporters behind and entered the Blue House. If you think about it, you could have ignored it and gone inside, but sometimes you need to take advantage of unexpected events like this.
Until then, my thoughts on becoming a predictable person had changed quite a bit after this incident.
A person is normally predictable, but when he crosses a line, he becomes unpredictable.
I think this is better.
When you’re doing well, you act within the expected range, but when you cross the line, you don’t know how things will change.
Then you will be careful.
If you still don’t act properly, just handle it like this incident.
“I’m home.”
“….”
Well, this is the first time I’ve seen Cheon Myeong-guk look like that.
The world seems to have collapsed, but in the end, you give up on everything. Nevertheless, there were people who had no choice but to face the inevitable reality.
“You had an accident.”
“yes.”
“It is also an accident that cannot be repaired.”
“Can’t it be resolved?”
“Absolutely not. “It won’t work.”
It was almost like a scream.
“I know it was a big accident. But it was bound to happen.”
“…That is also true.”
For some reason, it seemed like it was an insulting remark, but Cheon Myeong-guk stopped talking any further and offered me a seat with a sigh.
He looked very tired, so I obediently sat down across from him.
“With Lu Jun and the leadership gone, South China is in a state of uncontrollable chaos.”
“I guess so.”
“In addition, there was a rebellion recently, so there is no political force that can replace it. “Currently, it is much more serious than you think.”
It is said that as a result, a group of incompetent forces took over the government.
Not only that, but even countries that were in conflict are trying to cross the border.
Among them, the most threatening one is the North Korean army, North China.
“There is currently a standoff at the border.”
“Why North?”
“It is to keep North China in check.”
Cheon Myeong-guk took issue with North China’s actions to restore its territory and put the brakes on it. If North China unifies China, it will have a powerful enemy as its neighbor.
In response, they cited the armistice agreement and expressed their intention to project military power if necessary.
“Fortunately, the political forces are divided, taking advantage of President Yu Hao’s weakness. “The battle for leadership is fierce and no one faction has the upper hand, so it is precariously balanced.”
“That’s good news here.”
I looked at Cheon Myeong-guk telling a trivial story and looked puzzled.
Cheon Myeong-guk, who must have read my expression, nodded slightly and said to me.
“You must have been very disappointed in humans because of this incident.”
“….”
“There are many people in the world who consider it their right to do favors. They don’t know the subject, demand more and eventually try to take everything away from the other person. “This is the same case.”
“Do you want to convince me?”
“There is nothing more dangerous than a superhuman coming to hate humans.”
You’re seeing it right.
Since I neither confirmed nor denied, Cheon Myeong-guk continued speaking.
“From now on, things that get on your nerves will continue to happen. But if that makes you hate humans, isn’t this also a big problem?”
“What you’re worried about won’t happen.”
I have no intention of living a life of being chased like I did during the hematoma.
No, since I’m stronger this time, maybe I can kill them all and do whatever I want?
But there are too many troublesome things to bother with.
Cheon Myeong-guk shook his head.
“Great disappointment creates great anger. “The Adept was disappointed by this incident, and it could always lead to a big accident like this incident.”
“You’re not wrong.”
“Instead, please know this. “This tranquility right now would be a better choice for you, Adept.”
“yes.”
Even though I thought his worries about me were excessive, I felt that Cheon Myeong-guk was trying to control me in his own way.
Perhaps if the dead guys had been as worried as Cheon Myeong-guk, this accident wouldn’t have happened.
“I hope you can forget everything and rest for a while. “I will take responsibility for all future matters.”
“may I?”
“yes. It would be more beneficial in the current situation to just stay still. “Please, please.”
“….”
Hmm, it feels like I’m bringing out my true feelings more casually than before.
I nodded and said I understood.
* * *
“So, are you staying in Seoul for the time being?”
Lee Se-hee’s eyes were sparkling as she spoke.
It looks like he wants to do something.
“It’s funny to have an accident and go somewhere else.”
“It’s an accident. “Even though it was the other party that committed it, not Junho.”
Still, I feel comforted because there are people like Lee Se-hee who think normally.
For your information, everyone outside is saying it’s my fault.
The other person provided the cause, but my response was harsh. One knows, the other doesn’t. In the first place, you have to catch it right in the pasture so that it doesn’t come out later.
Now that things have escalated to this level, I will try not to cross the line any further.
Of course, the scale was a bit large.
“I think the same thing. So, I’m going to try something else.”
“What happened?”
“I need help from Shinsung Group.”
“I will cooperate with anything.”
“This car already needed the power of Shinsung Group. But aren’t you busy?”
The spirit of war was growing as I blew off all the heads of South China.
At the same time, military supplies were needed, and Shinsung Group was able to produce the largest quantity in this area.
It’s a really funny thing that the leadership flew out because they looked at me with hate, but in the end I had no choice but to buy weapons from a place that would fill my pockets.
“For Junho, we need to create the resources we didn’t have before. “I can handle that much.”
“Then I won’t decline.”
It was much more convenient for Shinsung Group to move than for me to run.
“If Shinsung Group moves, will you be able to find out each country’s secrets?”
“It depends on the type of confidentiality, right?”
“Things that are confidential, but you don’t have to risk your life to protect them.”
Curiosity appeared on Lee Se-hee’s face.
“Can I hear what it is first?”
What I would do during my break was decided from the beginning.
After I got rid of the league, the next thing I wanted to do was find out what was driving me crazy.
In the past, I thought it was a hematoma, but now I think someone else created the blood feeding process to create the hematoma’s ego.
And it must be a divine beast who created this blood feeding.
I said I would cooperate with Hyuna and Yongyong, but from the beginning, I planned to take charge and understand everything.
“Divine information that each country knows.”
If you look for it one by one, it will come out someday.
