Became a Dark Merchant in the Academy - Chapter 292



291 – Fake_13

It’s been a week since the Hero Association investigation team, led by Chelsea Rondo, arrived in Okinawa and began their investigation.

As the time came for something to come out, it would not be an exaggeration to say that the eyes of the world were focused on Okinawa, or more precisely, on Chelsea Rond’s words and actions.

That was understandable. Because of this incident, three S-class heroes, who were important strategic assets of the country and superstars who protected the citizens on the front lines of the country, went missing, and the American Holy Empire and the Navy of the Allied Forces clashed beyond a standoff, causing enormous material and human casualties.

Even though an investigation team was dispatched from the association headquarters and public opinion died down.

That’s just what it looks like on the outside.

There is also public opinion in favor of the Donggun Alliance.

-Revenge on those little b*stards!!

-The Union does not support the Empire.

-What on earth is the government doing!! Lord Inazuma, thousands of Yamato’s strongmen were crushed like that. Shouldn’t we take revenge!!

Public opinion in the Holy Empire of America.

-The baby monkeys are making a loud cry.

-You helped me so much during the Daejeon War. Now you’re hitting me in the back of the head again. This time, you really need to change that shit land into a place where people can’t live. Shouldn’t you come to your senses?

-The Holy Empire’s forces want you. I WANT YOU!

As time went by, things started to go from bad to worse.

In addition, distorted patriotism was expressed, and the LA incident, which once again created a rift between the two countries, began to be rekindled.

“The money you spend on stuff from these idiots will come flying back to you like a bomb!!”

“Have you forgotten about the Ogasawara Islands?”

“Nikoro? Isn’t that a company from the Donggun Alliance? Ugh.”

“Why are there Donggun Alliance products on display at the mart?”

That’s why we started a boycott.

“These damned rascals are coming into Shinto. They can’t go away!”

“Spy? You’re a spy, right?”

“Get out of the empire!! You monkeys!!!”

“Get out of your country!!”

Even in broad daylight in the city, he did not hesitate to make racist remarks.

“Are you the one with the nose?”

“I am a member of the French Republic…”

“France, what the hell. You’re right, you’re the one with the nose. Otherwise, why are you shaking? You’re shaking because you’re being stabbed.”

“That, that…”

“I guess you’re right, since you can’t answer properly. Hey. Pull me out.”

“Hey, save me!!”

“Don’t you think that a slightly off-kilter ape smell is coming from somewhere?”

“Yeah. Where do you think it comes from?”

“…”

“Oh, there it is. Hey. An ape.”

“I am not an ape….”

“Shut up. Instead of taking the subway like an ape, go live in the jungle.”

“Please don’t do this. I am a citizen of the Holy Empire.”

“Citizen of the Holy Empire? Huh…”

“Now, wait. Don’t come near me. This is against the law…”

“shut up!!”

Indiscriminate violence became so severe that it even led to terrorist attacks.

[The Donggun Alliance continues to commit indiscriminate racial discrimination and terrorism. The embassy says…]

[News has come out that the 3rd Fleet of the Eastern Alliance has departed for Hawaii.]

[Reports that a young Asian woman was brutally assaulted in the Holy Empire, resulting in her face being crushed.]

[It is said that the 5th Fleet of the Holy Empire has been deployed to Guam.]

[Investors from the Holy Empire begin to withdraw from the Eastern Alliance en masse…]

Naturally, they couldn’t just pick up what happened. Given the current situation, the media took advantage of it and spread the facts, but they also cleverly twisted the story and reproduced it to suit the government, companies, and individuals.

That is why the two countries are increasingly becoming more extreme, and public opinion is calling for revenge.

This is a situation where, if not careful, an all-out war could break out.

This is not a war between the nations of the Black Continent or a small country in the South Pacific. This is a war between the world’s top 5 most influential countries.

The world is organically and delicately connected.

It was clear that if they went to war, not only the economy but all aspects of society would be ruined.

“This is TBV. Would you be available for an interview?”

“Interview?”

“I mean, isn’t the current situation between the Holy Empire and the Eastern Alliance worsening? What do you think about that?”

“Can’t you tell by the fact that I bought a lot of canned food and other necessities?”

“Are you saying that there will be a war?”

“I don’t know. But prices keep rising, so it can’t hurt to be prepared.”

“Oh, I see.”

It was impossible for ordinary people in other countries to be unaware of such facts.

“Could this be the work of the Donggun Alliance?”

“Is this the work of the Donggun Alliance?”

“It was an incident that happened in Okinawa. To be honest, if not one, but two S-class heroes are missing, we have to take action as a nation…”

“If you look at it that way, the Holy Empire is more suspicious. The Eastern Alliance guys aren’t stupid. How could they do something like that on their own territory?”

“I see.”

Whenever people gathered, they talked about that topic.

“Dad. Where am I?”

“Oh, this is a bunker…”

Some survivalists whose anxiety reached its peak set out to find a way to survive.

[The South Korean government stated that it is closely monitoring the situation between the Holy Empire and the Eastern Military Alliance and hopes that any misunderstandings between the two countries will be resolved…]

[The French Republic expressed its intention to bring the matter to a fair, just, prompt and accurate conclusion.]

[The Russian Federation….]

[Chinese 17…]

[uk….]

Countries not directly involved in the incident also became alert.

Therefore, there was no reason for the world’s attention not to be focused on Okinawa.

[News has come out that the Hero Association investigation team has discovered crucial evidence.]

[Chelsea Ronde, the head of the investigation, has called an emergency press conference.]

There was no reason for Chelsea Rond’s mouth not to be focused on, to be precise.

Depending on how she answered, whether there would be a war or not would be decided. It would determine how the current situation would unfold.

“No, that’s a bit of an exaggeration.”

I shook my head slightly, thinking about it.

It wasn’t completely impossible, but it was a wild guess.

The leaders of the two countries, and the leaders of all other countries, are not idiots. They would never want an all-out war to break out.

Even if it was certain that one country would win, the weight of the name of an all-out war was not light, and since the two countries were entangled in more than one or two relationships, if one side collapsed, the other side would inevitably suffer enormous damage.

It was obvious that arbitration would be involved.

In addition, the 2nd place, the 17th Federation of China, was watching with both eyes wide open.

So, just as the Chinese 17 Federation and the Raja Confederation clashed every year on the Himalayan border, causing hundreds of casualties and only making their relationship worse before returning to normal, this incident could have been the same.

If there had been signs of war from the beginning, there would have been chaos during the LA Sky Island incident.

In other words, the general opinion, both in public opinion and in my opinion, was that this incident would not lead to an all-out war, but would create an irreparable gap between the two.

Of course, as always, there were contingencies.

“hmm.”

I have achieved the goals I set out to accomplish during this summer vacation.

Now that the connection between the two countries is severed, no matter what happens in the Pacific, both countries will be suspicious of each other and unable to respond properly.

However, the additional goal has not yet been achieved.

“I guess we can start now.”

The preparations are complete.

The day to return to the academy is not far away.

[Do you have something important to announce about the recent Okinawa incident?]

[Yes, that’s right.]

In a dark room.

When I turned my gaze, the TV screen showed a press conference room.

Chelsea Ronde was seen sitting at the desk on the stage, holding the microphone, while the reporters across from her were nervously taking notes of what Chelsea Ronde was saying.

“Ines.”

After watching the screen for a while, I smiled at Ines, who was standing silently next to me.

“Shall we go?”

The moment when the super villain returns as a hero is just around the corner.

**

“Yes, that’s right.”

Press conference room.

As Chelsea Ronde nodded on stage, the reporters gulped, their expressions clearly tense.

This press conference was not the final announcement of the investigation results, but it was held under the title of a major announcement.

How much influence do her words have now? Are they enough to influence the flow of the world?

That’s why the reporters couldn’t be so quick to ask what Chelsea Ronde was going to say next, what big announcement he was trying to make.

“What is it?”

But even among reporters, there are those who are bold and want to make a name for themselves.

A reporter raised his hand cautiously and asked.

“that…”

Chelsea Rond’s mouth moved in response.

Numerous cameras focusing at the same time.

“This incident is all related to the Donggun Alliance…”

A feast of light that explodes with every word.

The eyes of everyone gathered at the press conference grew wide as the breaking news was about to spread.

“It has to do with the Eastern Military Alliance. That’s some crazy talk.”

If there hadn’t been a low voice echoing in the press conference room.
