Became a Dark Merchant in the Academy - Chapter 296



295 – real_3

The S-class hero who was thought to have gone missing.

A special villain who was thought to be dead.

The fake Chelsea Rond that pretended to be real, and the appearance of a new Chelsea Rond that looks real.

A series of unexpected broadcast accidents. No, the appearance of these large-scale broadcast accidents was something that could have ended the press conference long ago.

If it had been a normal situation, the press conference would have been cut off long ago and people’s speculations would have taken over the broadcasting station’s bulletin boards, but for some reason, the press conference did not end.

From noble mtl dot com

It wasn’t because the management didn’t control it.

This was because efforts were made in all directions to control it, but they ended in failure.

“For the sake of the anxious public’s right to know, we cannot stop broadcasting.”

The top floor of the European and Swiss Hero Association headquarters. The office of the association president.

At the report of his subordinate, Victor Severin, the head of the Hero Headquarters Association and former Polish-Lithuanian S-Class Hero, slammed the table!

“Damn it!”

What the hell is the people’s right to know?

They know full well that if something unfavorable to them comes out, they will just wash their mouths and ban the broadcast.

They say it’s none of their business, they’re just making up nice words.

Victor Severin’s fever rose to the top of his head.

However, the broadcast cannot be forcibly stopped.

The Hero Association headquarters is an organization that resolves issues or disputes that the branches cannot resolve.

There was no extra-legal right or authority to interfere with each country or branch and tell them to broadcast or not.

I can only give recommendations.

“How should I deal with this?”

What are you trying to do, somehow?

We have to stop the broadcast by any means necessary.

“Have you been able to contact the investigation team?”

“It’s still dead.”

“Cooperation from the Eastern Army Alliance?”

“After Chelsea Rond’s claims were denied by Taylor Mabille, it seems we will have to wait and see how things develop.”

“The Holy Empire?”

“Still no answer.”

“What about other countries?”

“I understand, but the nuance is that I will take a recommendation as a recommendation.”

“The branches?”

“You must know that the president of the association contacted you. He said that he will handle the matter among himself and will not accept any unnecessary interference.”

“Then the broadcasting station…”

“that…”

However, no matter how many possible solutions were tried, they were all rejected and ended in failure.

The team on the scene has been unable to contact anyone about what is happening, the two countries that could be considered parties to the incident have not responded, and other countries are sympathizing with them.

The branches that could be relied on were acting as they pleased, once again, talking about autonomy, and the broadcasting stations were obsessed with increasing viewer ratings.

Moreover, the anti-fans of the association headquarters were all about belittling the headquarters, saying that this was an opportunity.

“…..”

Victor Severin was desperately looking to acquire the power of teleportation, a power previously discovered by the Eastern Alliance.

If I could teleport from Switzerland to Okinawa, crash the press conference, destroy all the broadcasting equipment, and stop the press conference, I might be able to somehow bring some order to this drama-like situation.

But that’s just an illusion.

There is no way to get from Switzerland to Okinawa right now.

No, it does exist, but it takes at least a day.

Even if we get there that way, the press conference will have been over for a long time.

It was safe to say that there was no way to end the press conference at this point.

“How could this happen…”

The investigation team leader was kidnapped and turned into someone else, and it’s an incompetent place that can’t even figure it out.

The investigation results are a mess, and the Hero Association headquarters is unnecessary. They say they can’t control the broadcasting accident that happened.

Such stories caused an uproar on the Internet and public opinion, and it seemed that he was destined to bow his head and be cursed at throughout his term, even though he had done nothing wrong.

“Mr. Chairman. What should we do now?”

“…What should I do?”

Now there is only one way.

Victor Severin turned his head and looked at a rectangular panel in one corner of the Association’s office.

[Ines is neither a villain nor an enemy.]

The new Chelsea Rond.

The so-called New Chelsea Ronde came into view, standing in the middle of Ines and the investigation team.

The developments that could not be predicted even an inch ahead, if it were not for the person in charge of the incident, the situation would have been watched with great interest.

The problem is that there is someone who is ultimately responsible for the incident.

“For now, we continue to request that the broadcast be stopped as much as possible.”

“But that…”

“I know. So tell all the team leaders to come up. We have to have a meeting about the issues that come out of there. And prepare to call in the reporters as soon as the press conference is over.”

“All right.”

As soon as Victor Severin finished speaking, his subordinate bowed his head and left the president’s office.

“after.”

A situation that leaves you with nothing but a sigh.

If I had known this was going to happen, I would have stopped Chelsea Rondo from making that big announcement.

Because he was called incompetent for not playing any role in the 17th Federation massacre in China or the LA Sky Island incident.

In order to overcome such evaluations, we wanted to show the association’s capabilities by quickly resolving the case.

I knew things would turn out like this.

[There is a hidden truth to this incident.]

Press conferences that never stop.

The ensuing commotion.

All Victor Severin could do was pray that no more accidents would occur inside the rectangular panel.

“Two Chelsea Rondes?”

“Ines is not the enemy?”

“The hidden truth…?”

The press conference room became noisy again with the remarks of the newly appeared Chelsea Rondo.

“So first of all, put down your weapons and calm down…”

The new Chelsea Rond, the new Chelsea Rond looked at Heil Gregg and tried to continue speaking.

“There’s nothing to hear. I’ll take Ines. You take Chelsea Rond.”

Then Taylor Mabille, who had been silent until then, joined their conversation.

“that…”

“What are you hesitating for? That’s not your boss. He’s a villain, a special villain, and a villain organization’s underling who’s trying to cause discord among the nations and drive them into war.”

That’s right.

The situation was completely incomprehensible, and it was unclear whether that was the real Ines, but if so, she was a top-class villain.

With two Chelsea Rondes, how can we be sure that the new Chelsea Rondes is real?

But Heil Greg couldn’t move rashly.

‘It looks real.’

When I looked closely at the old Chelsea Rondo, I noticed that his height and voice were strange, so I nodded to Taylor Marvel’s words.

The new Chelsea Rondo was so real, in terms of height, voice, and other aspects that were hard to describe in words, that no matter how much you looked at it, it looked real.

“Don’t be shaken. It’s the villains’ wicked scheme.”

“Greg.”

“Shouldn’t we trust the parties involved in the incident?”

“I said I didn’t like the necklace you bought me in France last time, but that was a lie. I really liked it.”

“you.”

“therefore…”

The confusion continued to grow.

Heil Greg no longer understood which side was right.

If it were normal, it would be right to believe Taylor Marvel’s words, and I think so too.

It was impossible to define the New Chelsea Rond, which spoke of memories known only to the two of them, as fake.

But a decision had to be made.

“Chelsea… How can we be sure that you are the real Chelsea Rond? And even if you are, how can we trust you when you appear with a special villain who seems to be connected to this incident? Please show me your evidence.”

And the decision that was made was a mix of reason and emotion.

“How can I get you to believe me? Will you believe me if I tell you more about the past?”

“That’s… interrogation while wearing mana restraints…”

“Really? Okay then. Okay.”

Chelsea Ronde put her arms together and stretched them forward.

It means that I will not rebel at all.

It meant that he would be arrested.

“That alone…”

“Please, Ines.”

“…”

In addition, Ines also put both arms forward at the words of New Chelsea Ronde.

“…Nevin. Bring me the Mana Binding Orb. Fill it.”

Heil Greg gave orders to the investigators next to him.

And how many minutes passed?

A member of the investigation team called Nevin brought a mana restraint.

“…I will fill it.”

Within seconds, Chelsea Ronde’s wrists were locked in a Mana restraint.

Ines had restraints not only on her wrists but also on her ankles, and her entire body was wrapped in restraints.

“Will you believe me now?”

“I’ll listen to the story.”

The threat has been eliminated.

So, it wasn’t like I couldn’t listen to what he was saying.

“Are you going to listen to your villain?”

Taylor Marvel reacted incredulously.

“I wonder what you’re talking about…”

“Didn’t I tell you the truth of the matter? They are just buying time to take away my comrades. Don’t fall for the snake’s tongue.”

“I don’t think there’s any threat since the mana restraint is full.”

“So you’ll listen to what the villains have to say?”

“Because it might be real and not fake.”

“you…”

Taylor Marvel shook his head.

Then he walked briskly towards Ines.

“Elder?”

“If you’re that confused, I guess I’ll have to show you the truth again.”

Heil Greg tried to stop Taylor Marvel’s sudden actions.

“sleep…”

“The villain’s actions and words cannot be trusted!”

First, Taylor Marvell fired his magic at Ines.

Mana surged through Taylor Marvel’s body, and a giant flame appeared.

A huge firework shoots out within.

-bang!!!!!!!

The sun filled the press conference room.
