A Lie Has Turned Into Reality - Chapter 315
Only Ran(o)vel dot com
“royal household?”
Seongsu-dong, Seoul.
SW Group headquarters office.
Eunwoo, who was sitting at his desk processing a mountain of paperwork, suddenly heard news and grabbed the back of his neck.
“So does that mean my family is royalty?”
“I think so?”
“Does that make sense?”
“It may not be unreasonable, but…”
Eun-ah was also surprised.
I had heard the news that my father had left for North Korea.
But still, suddenly it’s royalty.
This is sudden, but isn’t it too sudden?
“What is North Korea’s reaction?”
“Why are you asking something so obvious? There was a fuss about welcoming you.”
“Still can’t contact dad?”
“Yeah. I went underwater.”
Not only did they suddenly make themselves royalty, but now they’re completely disappearing.
A hollow laugh burst out from Eun-ah’s throat.
“Did you receive the message from the secretary’s office?”
“This morning.”
“What is the reason?”
“It is said that even during the contract extension process, the head of the National Intelligence Service requested that he change his mind about retirement.”
what?
“Retirement change of mind?”
“Oh, you changed your mind about retiring. You said we couldn’t trust you?”
Of course, that’s a given.
Wasn’t even the contract a very important matter that literally handed over complete authority to govern?
Even if he had been the head of the National Intelligence Service, he would not have been able to easily trust the SW Group from which his father had retired.
‘Could it be that you were suggesting royalty as a substitute for reversing your retirement?’
To be honest, it’s annoying.
If you act so rashly, won’t you face a backlash?
But something is strange.
Isn’t it self-destructive to establish a royal family just to retire once?
It’s not like the royal family has been around for tens or hundreds of years, so the workload of a newly established royal family must be quite heavy, right?
“But I think it’s better than being president.”
“Is that so?”
“Even if you’re a royal, it’s only going to be hectic for the first few years, but after a year or so, there won’t be much to do, right?”
but.
Just looking at the British royal family, it’s not like they have a lot of work to do, but it’s not like they have a lot of work to do either.
From a long-term perspective, being the chairman of the SW Group, which has to deal with the entire world, would be a better choice in many ways than being the royal family of North Korea.
“Hey, Eunwoo?”
And then.
Employee Kim Ha-yeon, who had been watching the situation, carefully opened her lips.
“I got a letter from the secretary’s office.”
“Letter?”
“They say they are holding a coronation ceremony to officially announce the royal inauguration.”
what?
coronation?
“When was that?”
“They said a month later.”
“That means…”
“In just one month, Eunwoo will become royalty too.”
This is crazy.
They may call themselves royalty, but that means they are ultimately a lifelong citizen of the country.
“that…”
Employee Kim Ha-yeon glanced around.
After glancing at her expression a couple of times, he carefully brought up the main point.
“Eunwoo must attend the coronation ceremony as well… Oh! Of course, Eunah must attend as well!”
Eunwoo glanced at the seat next to him.
Eun-ah, who was sitting next to me, was already sitting with a half-souled expression on her face.
“… … ”
A solemn atmosphere.
There’s no way the mood could be bright when you’ve been sentenced to life imprisonment as a member of the royal family, let alone a quick break.
Of course, there is not only bad news.
This coronation was in fact a signal to begin a new leap forward beyond the corporate state system.
In any case, the workload will decrease.
Previously, all North Korea-related work was under the jurisdiction of the SW Group, but after the coronation, most of it will be transferred to the royal family.
But there was a hidden trap here.
That is, they are also part of the royal family.
‘It’s basically spitting while lying down.’
Some of the work is being transferred to the royal family?
Then what should we do?
After all, he is also a member of the royal family.
“The list is quite splendid.”
Eunwoo was amazed as he looked at the list of participants in the coronation ceremony that he received from Kim Hayeon.
Numerous political and business figures, including heads of state from various countries.
At this scale, it would be safe to say that it was a summit meeting disguised as a coronation ceremony.
Eunwoo raised his head with a blank expression.
But why is that?
Kim Ha-yeon was drenched in a cold sweat, holding a bundle of documents of unknown origin.
‘…for a moment.’
Come to think of it…
What on earth are those documents?
“Those documents…?”
“Oh, this?”
Nod.
As Eunwoo nodded, Kim Hayeon slowly walked away.
“These are the official documents related to this coronation.”
“Why are you doing that to us?”
“They told us to get ready?”
“??”
“I also received it from the secretary’s office this morning…”
The contents of the document were even more interesting.

From protocol to hospitality, security, media work, etc.
The overall preparation process for the event was described in detail like a manual.
The intent of the document was clear.
That’s right…
“… It’s a bit of a hassle.”
“This is crazy.”
Eunwoo and Eunah looked at each other in shock.
In the meantime, I was speechless at my dad’s madness in taking care of things.
“Then why did Dad disappear too…?”
“ha ha ha…”
Eunwoo shook his head.
Even though he was young, he already looked like he needed to be recuperated.
The same goes for Eun-ah.
She muttered, her face turning pale.
“… At this point, shouldn’t I really report this to someone?”
“Should I go to the Ministry of Labor?”
“That might be okay.”
They were sincere.
At this moment, Kim Sung-woo was nothing more than an evil CEO who treated them like slaves.
****
one side.
“…shit.”
I sat down and loosened my tie.
“There is no such thing as this kind of bullshit.”
“Still, we haven’t avoided the worst.”
Park Yoon-seong muttered in a soft voice as if trying to persuade her.
Of course, it wasn’t any comfort at all.
Because from the moment my retirement was overturned, my heart was torn to pieces and tattered.
“How are the coronation preparations going?”
“They say preparations are underway without any hitches.”
“What about the twins?”
“I heard that you went to the Labor Office the day before, but there hasn’t been any other news.”
Labor Department?
It’s a bit out of the blue, but what’s important now isn’t such a trivial matter.
“Have you even finalized the contract?”
“Yes, we have completed the contract as per the terms we discussed earlier.”
“What about notarization?”
“The first notarization is complete. We just need to finalize the details on the day of the coronation.”
“What was the White House’s response?”
“There has been nothing unusual so far.”
That’s fortunate.
To be honest, it may sound like a royal family, but if you look into the reality, it’s actually a quasi-communist state with a dictatorship.
Of course, it is completely different in form from a typical communist country.
In any case, the new royal system may be viewed somewhat unpleasantly by the United States, which is obsessed with hegemony.
“Keep an eye on the White House.”
“Of course.”
“If you hear even the slightest rumor, don’t forget to report it.”
Park Yoon-seong smiled.
He stood up from his seat and exuded confidence.
“There is no need to worry too much, as our agents planted in the White House are constantly monitoring the situation.”
but.
There were already many spies on that side from the beginning.
“How is things going with the royal family?”
“It is progressing flawlessly. The Chinese and Russian sides have provided advice in various aspects, and above all, the information provided by the British royal family has been said to be effective.”
China and Russia.
Two countries strangely welcomed the news of the establishment of a royal family.
‘I think I felt a useless bond at some strange point…’
Who would say that it is not a long-standing communist dictatorship?
Their advice was excellent as a cautionary tale.
… of course, I don’t really like being lumped into the same category as them.
“What is the public reaction?”
“Don’t be ridiculous. It’s not even a big deal. To be honest, if we just sell the Chairman’s goods, we can secure a year’s worth of defense budget.”
“…Is that it?”
“Yes, that’s about it. Even the look in their eyes is different.”
I held my forehead because of the nagging headache.
There had been a lot of chaos about personality worship even before, but once the royal family was openly established, the intensity of the worship grew stronger by the day.
‘I don’t know anymore.’
okay.
How can I stop their personality cult?
It’s not like it can be stopped just by trying to block it in the first place.
It’s good for your mental health to just accept it as it is.
“Then I will go now.”
Park Yoon-seong finished his report and leisurely left.
I looked at his back and became lost in thought.
North Korea is alive and well.
After the coronation, its presence will become even more solid.
Sure, the first few years will be a bit hectic, but it’s just a passing fad compared to the life sentence of being the chairman of SW Group.

Above all, if you are even slightly entangled with the SW Group, then just deal with it there.
“What the heck are you doing…?”
Moments from the past flash through my mind like a film.
From the memories of that day when lies became reality, the acquisition of Leon Play, the starting point of the SW Group, and countless other wrecks… wrecks… and more wrecks.
“…”
That damn tow truck.
You really did a lot.
Of course, I have no regrets.
It’s the country’s fault for producing all sorts of crazy incidents and accidents, not mine.
Of course, I still wonder how I, a mere tow truck driver, became North Korea’s lucky totem.
What’s the use of questioning it now?
sniffling.
I took a sip of the steaming coffee.
“You hit the nail on the head.”
Crazy life.
There really isn’t a single day that I’m bored.
