Episode 154. Environment Creation (6)

“Please wait a moment! Those who haven’t signed yet, please sign over there first…….”

The streets were alive with life. A considerable amount of supplies and manpower were forcibly transfusing life into these dark streets.

“No, you just got it the day before yesterday, and you’re still so skinny. Didn’t you eat yesterday?”

“First of all, I’m going to stack them up in the cupboard…….”

“I’ll be giving it to you like this for a few months anyway, so don’t worry and just eat it.”

The citizens of Blacrohn continued to grow lazy.

These are people who had to work hard, sweat, and steal from others to barely make a living. Once they secured food, they lived a life where it wasn’t strange for them to go without income for several months.

But now, just by smiling brightly and showing your face to the trucks parked all over the street, you can collect a lot of food.

“Thank you for your hard work.”

“Oh, Mr. Seonwoo! Are the people behind you volunteers?”

The soldier who was providing civilian support looked at the three women and an old man behind me.

“Yes, uh. Should I just go up there?”

“yes!”

The vehicle continued up the hill. The road was rough and the incline was steep.

“Okay, okay. Everyone, get off. The professionals will do the installation, so just have fun and carry some stuff.”

Luna sighed deeply, as if she was annoyed. Considering her thin arms, it didn’t seem like she would enjoy physical labor.

“Okay, it’s been a while since we’ve all gathered together. Let’s go!”

On the contrary, Ravina twitched her long ears and jumped around. Even so, with her normal jumping without using implants, she couldn’t jump over anyone here.

“But the kid I met today said that this winter was incredibly cold!”

“How many days have you been here…? Have you been having fun by yourself?”

“Luna was just touching the computer.”

“It’s all work. The access point here is a mess. I can’t connect to the network at all… It’s like they’re broadcasting radio waves to hack into Jeonseo-gu.”

Her eyes were filled with fatigue. But she didn’t seem to hate this job, and even though she grumbled, her feet kept moving.

“Why did you guys meet here in the first place?”

“It’s a patrol! As soon as I saw him, he pointed a gun at me and tried to take my money, so I beat him up with my fist!”

Ravina raised her small fist slightly. Doris looked at the sight with a pleased face.

Meanwhile, Brandon was already moving his luggage.

“……This is the first time we’ve met since then.”

“Yeah, it’s been a while, mister.”

I followed him with an indifferent expression.

“But, I think I’ve seen you somewhere since that day… Am I mistaken?”

“Let’s keep that a secret. If your face is sold, it’ll be hard to go out.”

Brandon looked at me, as if he was secretly surprised.

“Wasn’t it a secret?”

“Everyone who knows knows. They just don’t show it openly.”

“No matter what…….”

“Just don’t go around talking too much. The friends following me will probably know.”

Brandon’s body staggered for a moment. His body, with the combat implants removed, was made of a somewhat foreign and awkward metal frame.

“Then the woman over there… seems to be the woman from the rumors.”

“Wait a minute. How far did that rumor spread?”

“Everyone who knows, knows.”

Looking at Brandon’s face, which was smiling so innocently, my heart naturally started to hurt.

“But moving this… would it make sense? The people here won’t be able to get fuel. Maybe for a few months, but more than that….”

“I know that too. But I’ll sell it for money in a few months. That’s obvious.”

Of course, there aren’t many people in Blakron who would be able to find a proper job and buy fuel.

But that’s enough. Given just a few months, people will come to accept that freezing to death in the winter and sweltering to death in the summer is no longer ‘normal.’

Stella City will be admired. Those who have seen what happens when we enter the city with good intentions will not make the ‘risky and challenging’ choice of taking corporate property by force.

“Teachers, have you arrived? Wow, the people are so obvious.”

A noisy anchorman swarmed in with people holding cameras.

“Pre-filming is over. The residents are a bit mean, but it’s not much different from Stella City!”

“Don’t be conscious of the camera, and just slowly come up the hill with the air conditioner. Are you ready, Brandon?”

“……Okay.”

At first, I didn’t think it was necessary to use him.

But commercially speaking, he had a pretty plausible narrative.

A disabled veteran who was addicted to drugs on the streets of Stella City is called upon by Hansan once again to help the citizens.

“Thank you for your hard work.”

“……Thank you. Thank you for making this happen.”

Brandon, too, was feeling a sense of emptiness. It was a common occurrence.

From my perspective, I would trust someone who felt doubt and overcame it more than someone who committed the act of killing someone without any qualms.

“I’ll take a picture!”

An old man carrying a load slowly climbed the hill.

The citizens of Blakron were watching the scene. There were so many cameras on them that it was impossible not to see it.

He entered a shabby house. It was so shabby that he thought the facilities in Hansan, which he was just entering, were more expensive than this house.

A small child ran up to Brandon.

“Where did you get hurt like that, sir?”

People who were watching laughed hysterically.

It is a huge reinforced exoskeleton with most of its body cut out. When going into battle, it moves with the ominous thing on its body, but when it is not equipped, it reveals an unsightly appearance.

From a child’s perspective, they might have just thought an old man wearing ‘a pair of sturdy crutches’ was there to help them.

“I just… uh, I got hurt in a fight. A long time ago.”

“Really? Aren’t you uncomfortable with a body like this?”

“It’s just… it’s better to live there than to look at.”

Brandon seemed taken aback as well, but he eventually nodded slowly.

They were laughing. The cameraman was filming the beautiful sight.

“Did you see the Blakron special that came out this time?”

“Well, they are really bad guys. It’s not like there weren’t guys like that in Stella City either……”

People tend to forget the past and move on much faster than we think.

The pain of the terror was slowly forgotten. The victims still remembered the incident, but others were slowly recovering from the shock.

And they were looking at this incident, half for entertainment.

Familiar people appear. The soldiers of Stella City were ultimately the family of the people living here, and there were many people who supported them.

Even though the feelings may have cooled, the direction itself has not changed.

The ‘evil criminals’ of Blacrohn were not human beings ‘who did not care whether they lived or died’ to the citizens of Stella City.

It’s an opponent that you can feel a sense of exhilaration when he dies, and a sense of happiness when you defeat him.

“It’s kind of funny now that I think about it. Until recently, I thought this city was the shittiest city in the world.”

“Well… these days, the police are operating properly. Even though it’s a bit frustrating when you’re stopped at night, they definitely catch criminals, right?”

Even the violence wasn’t happening close to them.

A spectacular battle and victory that takes place in an isolated space called Blacrone.

A battle where the proud sons and daughters of Stella City kill those who know no grace and are disgusting enough to be hated.

There was no way it wouldn’t be fun.

“Have you seen them living there? This place isn’t a good place to live either. It’s like hell.”

Aside from their dislike of the ‘rude people’ of Blacrohn, they also had compassion for the poor.

It was as if I was looking at their past. They were people who had difficulty making ends meet, who could not survive without fighting.

Stella City had not become a paradise in a matter of months, and even within Stella City itself there were places that were in turmoil or were consumed by poverty.

But with the right framing from corporations and the media, they could easily be pitied.

It was a delightful sight to see the citizens of Blacrohn escape from hell and regain happiness thanks to the advanced materials and technology of Stella City.

The citizens of Stella City were starting to feel a little bit superior.

No matter how unpleasant the life before them may be, looking at the hellish Blacrohn makes Stella City look beautiful.

I feel proud of the Stella City military for dealing with these vicious criminals without a care. Every time they help these poor citizens with their taxes and donations, I feel like they are more moral people.

While Hansanwoo was stirring up Blacrone, the discontent erupting from Stella City was slowly diminishing.

But there was still one problem that remained unsolved.

“By the way, what happened to that terrorist?”
