Episode 133. Collapse (13)
“This is… this is too much!”
“Why, isn’t it fun?”
The stranger opened his mouth and chuckled, mocking the man behind the speaker.
“You’re free. I guess you didn’t need our help, seeing as you were just tearing it apart.”
“That’s a shame. Well, even if that hadn’t happened, I wouldn’t have died… But isn’t that how we build trust with each other?”
The stranger’s appearance was far too relaxed for a fugitive being pursued by the entire city.
Although he was a man who rolled into a slum without proper facilities, the place he was staying had relatively modern facilities.
“I don’t think I’ve ever had the luxury of drinking coffee this leisurely. I appreciate it!”
Some worried people thought that Stella City would be destroyed by a nuclear war, and they built this refuge in preparation for that event.
Companies that rejected Hansan’s order secured one of those shelters, and the stranger managed to get there.
“If you still have that kind of feeling, you should have thought about our circumstances a little more before taking action!”
The stranger shook his head in disbelief.
“What’s the problem?”
“Isn’t Hansan running wild like a madman! He’s monopolizing the mercenaries and weapons!”
The situation was changing rapidly. Hansan would not simply leave the city to wallow in sorrow.
“It’s out of our control. From now on, if you move one finger wrong, it’s war!”
“Is that all?”
The stranger smiled hollowly.
“You knew I wasn’t the kind of person with free time to spare for you guys.”
“You should have made the contract clear. Didn’t you?”
The stranger who had been chatting excitedly felt a strange sensation and his expression hardened.
“Wait a minute. I knew I was going to commit terrorism at the venue. And now, you’re telling me that this incident doesn’t fit into your plans-.”
The atmosphere grew cold. The man behind the speaker remained silent.
“You thought I was going to die, didn’t you?”
A chilly atmosphere spread across the airwaves.
“We just make rational decisions.”
“It’s a matter of trust. Be honest. Do you have the money ready for me to take?”
The assets held by the foreigner were infinitesimal compared to those of a proper company.
But he didn’t reveal the money. The banknotes were just one of the many spoils he had, or could have.
If you’re short on cash, you can always just bust up one or two criminal organizations and take all the drugs and hidden assets.
All he needs is as much money as he needs. He can do everything that money can do without it.
But it was something that would hurt his feelings if someone broke a ‘promise’ they had made with him. It was a betrayal.
“To be honest. If my feelings get hurt here… it’ll just be annoying to both of us.”
The stranger’s face was distorted like a demon’s.
“We didn’t expect you to do something like that on the last day of the event. We even tried to stop you. We simply respected your choice.”
“We are the ones who prepared the shelter, and we are the ones who are desperately trying to block the police’s pursuit. We have no intention of breaking our promise.”
“That’s true.”
The stranger’s expression relaxed for a moment. A smile appeared on his lips again.
“Well, I didn’t mean to kill you on purpose, nor did I set you up as a trap. If you were the only one who got hurt, it’s your fault.”
This incident barely touched his feelings. The stranger nodded.
“So, when can I come out?”
“We’ll give you a signal. Just meet the doctor you’ve been waiting for, get the implants you’ve been waiting for, and then take the money.”
“Is this the end… I’m a little disappointed.”
The man behind the speaker couldn’t help but shudder at the stranger’s attitude.
“What?”
“This city is fun.”
Obviously, my first impression was not good. It was a city full of disgusting things, trash, and hypocrites.
But once he got his gun right, he could feel that this ‘cleaning’ was the most fun part of the job.
“Blacron is nice, but… it’s already perfect. It’s my style.”
“We kicked out all the dirty immigrants, all the homosexuals, all the guys with other sex organs. We killed all the dirty, weak, rude little brats, all the girls who just did nothing but whine.”
He proudly boasted of his accomplishments.
The power to achieve what he wanted was always in his hands. There was no reason why it couldn’t change.

“Is that all there was to it? We used to analyze your ambitions in our own way.”
“There have been many things. If I were to tell you everything now, it would be endless.”
The stranger shook his head, as if he didn’t want to talk about it now.
“Anyway, that’s all. At first, I had no intention of taking over the city.”
The city of Blakron was a city that was far inferior to Stella City.
Compared to Stella City, which had clear autonomy, it was ultimately just one of the cities belonging to the United States, with no proper public authority.
The money circulating there was also pitiful compared to Stella City, where goods from all over the world were rolling in.
But conquering a city with just guns and swords was never an easy task.
“That’s… something that can happen even without intention.”
“I just killed a lot.”
I had every implant visible on my body, and I thought countless times about the difference in power between myself and my enemy and how to win.
After defeat, he sharpened his sword to seek revenge, and after victory, he left no regrets behind.
So he erased everything he ‘hated to see’ and killed, killed, killed those who troubled him.
Politicians, reporters, police officers, ordinary housewives, office workers, and even businessmen.
All who went against his will were killed. The wise left the city.
After years of repeating this process, the only people left in Blakron were gangs that volunteered to be his subordinates.
“I’ve been so bored lately. Come to think of it, it might be a good thing I have something to do.”
“Are you saying you will stay in this city?”
“I think so! I’ll think about it a bit more slowly and decide…… But no matter how I think about it, just getting out of here just doesn’t seem fun.”
The man behind the speaker sighed silently.
The stranger was someone the company could not control. It was nothing short of a miracle to have a ‘mutually satisfactory deal’ like this.
But it was also impossible to kick him out. It was not impossible if the company tried its best, but the damage it would have to endure was too great.
“Let us cooperate too.”
“What? You’re saying that’s all? The after-sales service is solid.”
“If you give in too easily, we’ll suffer a lot of losses as well.”
The corporate conglomerate had invested a lot in the foreigner. No matter what kind of mischief he was causing, it was never a good thing to be caught right away.
“So, what do you plan to do?”
“I have to eat and live first… Mercenary? I have to do what I was doing.”
“I don’t think you’ll have to worry about money. You’ll probably get some money from Blacrohn, too.”
“That’s their money. It’s not mine. I’m not going to do anything for them, and only an incompetent person would sit back and collect the money.”
He had clear standards, and he applied them to himself without exception.
“Inside Stella City, you always have to live in danger of being tracked.”
“You didn’t even show your face and move, at best you’re just looking for me with some kind of electronic recognition device?”
The way to track people in Stella City was simple and effective.
You can find people by using the serial number of the implant or electronic device they use, or by their unique wavelength. This method was used not only in Stella City but all over the world, and it worked for most people.
“My hacker is stronger. That’s good enough.”
Fingerprints can be replaced. Faces can be replaced.
For a human of that level, changing his physique wouldn’t have been difficult. It would have been something he would never do, but in extreme cases, he could have changed his gender if given just a few months.
“By the way, I guess we’ll need a new name.”
“Have you thought about something?”
The stranger, who had been pondering for a moment, opened his mouth excitedly as if an interesting idea had occurred to him.
“Well, you know. I often hear about Stella City here too. It’s a place I often visit to sell medicine.”
The numerous synthetic drugs in Stella City were, of course, not produced within it.
Although it is a crime city, it is still a place with police and laws. In a world that has been swept by several wars, that alone could be considered a ‘relatively’ safe place.
Blacrohn’s criminals have spread their business to many cities, and Stella City has always been a solid sales point.
“I heard that you were wary of that kid named Hansanwoo, who used ‘foreign alphabet’ as his nickname? There were some rumors going around here too.”
“That’s true. I just thought it was a whim.”
“If you think about it, it’s actually pretty funny. What, like a prophecy from Greek mythology? Something like ‘A mercenary who uses a foreign alphabet as a nickname will destroy this city…’”
“He didn’t seem like a superstitious person… but maybe he was. Considering Han San-woo’s recent changes, I can’t even be sure how much of it is fake and how much is real.”
“If by any chance he believes that… I guess I’ll have to tease him a bit.”
The stranger clenched his fists.
“I’ve decided. My name, here, will be ‘E.’ Short, concise, and…….”
He hated hypocrites, he hated religionists.
“I think there will be people who will be shocked when they see this. Isn’t it fun?”
