#Episode 242, Natural Result

Seoul Government Complex.

After the Seoul incident, a workspace for the political affairs headquarters was prepared in the new building newly built.

Because it is a TF (Task Force) organization where public officials from each ministry are mixed, the atmosphere is still chaotic.

Seong Hyun-soo was taking on the role of interim manager.

Although he was only level 6, the reason was that he had his ideology verified first by Director Han Seong-jun.

Seong Hyun-soo saw another group of people entering and went up to greet them.

“This is Seong Hyun-soo, the chief officer from the early days department.”

“This is Park Geun-seok, secretary of the invitation department. “What about the general manager?”

“You are members of the first class. The general manager left the room for a moment. “For now, I am guiding you as instructed.”

“Ah, then… Our place is… .”

“Previously. “Please come in here for a moment.”

Hyunsoo Seong opened the door to the conference room next to him and pointed inside.

As the group from the invitation department, led by Secretary Park, started moving, Seong Hyun-soo stopped them and said,

“The rest of you, please wait for a moment and then come in one by one.”

“… … .”

Secretary Park, the most superior, nodded to the entire invitation team at the door and entered the conference room first.

Seong Hyun-soo went in right after and closed the door.

Crash.

Secretary Park looked around the conference room and asked with a slightly nervous expression.

“Well, why are they… ?”

Two men in paramedic uniforms were standing on the wall inside the conference room, and the blinds on the glass window facing the office space were completely rolled down, creating a rather intimidating atmosphere.

Seong Hyun-soo sighed and spoke with a somewhat red face.

“As you know, our political affairs headquarters… “This is a task force organization created to eliminate insurgent forces lurking within the government.”

Secretary Park shook his head as if he knew of course.

“… So, procedures to block those related to insurgent forces from forming an organization… “You can think of it like this.”

“I roughly understand what you mean. “I’m just asking because I’m curious.”

“yes. “Please speak.”

“Is that filtered down to just a few words? There’s a lie detector, so it doesn’t even look like it… . I’m worried that you’re planning on torturing me or something. haha.”

Secretary Park smiled awkwardly at the end of his sentence and looked at the emergency security guard.

It may be a sign of distrust in the verification method and dissatisfaction with the pressure.

Hyunsoo Seong said with a bitter smile.

“They are just waiting, just in case. Actually, I’m a bit puzzled and embarrassed, but… . This is all one hero… No, I am following the instructions of the head of the department, so please cooperate.”

“If it’s an order from the head of headquarters… . I understand. “Can I sit here?”

Grumble.

Secretary Park pulled out a chair and tried to sit down, but Seong Hyun-soo stood in the doorway and stopped him.

“no. There is no need to sit down. “It won’t take more than 10 seconds.”

Secretary Park stood up from his awkward posture and smiled.

“haha… . It was a formality. Verification is absolutely necessary, though. “Is this the manager’s confidence?”

“Well, um, you just have to repeat exactly what I say.”

“… All I have to do is follow along?”

“yes.”

“haha. “Try it.”

“Ha, this is so… , Echion bastard.”

“… !”

Secretary Park opened his eyes wide.

Seong Hyun-soo also showed an embarrassed expression.

“Haha, I know. I was also very embarrassed when I first heard it. What the director said… They said this guy named Echion would be effective because he was like a god to them. All you have to do is say something cool.”

“… … .”

however,

Secretary Park could not keep his mouth shut.

“… Secretary Park?”

“… … .”

Moreover, his eyes moved back and forth as if he was anxious.

Seong Hyun-soo suddenly got goosebumps.

‘No way!’

Are there people who really get caught up in this ridiculous ideological verification?

I couldn’t believe it, so I pressed Secretary Park again.

“You just say those six words and leave? Try it! Echion you bastard!”

“I have never uttered a curse word in my life! I won, it doesn’t seem like some kind of kid’s joke… .”

“… !”

Secretary Park moved to leave the conference room.

Seong Hyun-soo, who was near the door, blocked it and winked at the men across from him.

“Get out of the way! “Wow!”

A paramedic security officer rushed out of his seat and struck Secretary Park on the back of the neck, knocking him down and tying his arms behind his back.

Until a little while ago, Seong Hyun-soo thought it was just absurd instructions and an answerless search process.

The roots of our enemies are deeper than we think,

I was sobered by the fact that they had shamelessly crawled all the way here.

He whispered to another member with a serious face.

“There are five more people outside the door to verify. If you know the situation inside, you may be able to escape, so please take this into consideration before moving.”

***

“haha… .”

This is ridiculous.

It was my impression of seeing a street parade in Madrid on a hologram screen.

‘What kind of bastard wrote the lyrics like that… ?’

I knew you were called a crazy dog ​​saint, but

What about the teeth, barking… I think the lyrics are a bit excessive.

However, when the title ‘Chairman of the San Pero Labioso Festival Preparation Committee’ appeared on the interview screen of a young man, all I could do was laugh.

The event, which was started as a small event by an Estreya graduate named ‘Valentin’ three years ago, has become an annual festival in Madrid and is being prepared to be held again in June… .

As a crazy dog ​​listening, it was an interview that was so embarrassing and cringeworthy that I wanted to punch him if I ever met him.

I don’t know how an event to honor the dead became a week-long festival, but… , Still, I am thankful.

Beep beep! Beep beep!

I was killing my ring cooldown at a soup restaurant near the government building, but when the alarm screen covered the news, I immediately pulled out the cockpot and got up.

As I approached the counter to pay, the old man sitting there nodded his head to the side.

“… yes?”

“Just go.”

I think he’s doing that because he recognizes me… .

I am the only customer in the store.

It was after 3pm, but it didn’t seem like the place was doing well, so I really wanted to pay the bill.

“why. “I have money.”

“Draw. “I earned my fair share.”

“That’s not what it’s about.”

“Ah, Sillaeng, I don’t want to be hungry! “If you don’t feel like it, just get out!”

“yes… . “It was a delicious meal.”

“Draw.”

It was time to nod and leave the soup restaurant.

Buaaaaang—!

At the other end of the road, I saw a car approaching with a roar.

My senses immediately recognized the opponent and urged me to step back.

Jing!

The moment I hid inside the door of the soup restaurant again, Ham Seong-ah’s car passed in front of the soup restaurant.

Buwaaaaaa! Good!

A terrible tire friction sound was heard.

I was following the car out the window and it was entering the parking lot of the government building.

… He definitely came to see me.

‘Mr. Why is it so difficult? Seriously.’

Beep. Weeeeeee.

“… ?”

When I turned around, it was the sound of a service coffee vending machine.

The old man glanced at me and said.

“It’s all out.”

Did you press the button for me to drink?

“… thank you.”

I pulled out a paper cup and drank it shyly.

Hello.

“It’s a disaster anyway. “Don’t delay.”

100 million!

“Kekkek! yes… .”

what.

Are you saying this knowing my current situation?

“… “It was a good drink.”

I left the soup restaurant again and entered the shopping mall stairs.

It’s not that I ignored the old man’s advice, but it was because I needed at least a buffer of time.

Some people might find me frustrating.

I have a really hard time reacting to other people’s emotions.

I’m scared of tears.

Even if you curse, I can’t help it.

That’s how I got it.

‘okay… . Let’s call. It would be better if we had a double talk on the phone first.’

Let’s stay still… .

Can I contact the school first and ask for the director’s number?

As I was tapping the screen, ‘Stefan’ was displayed on the screen.

Oh! Is it your father?

“hello?”

-grow.

As expected, it was my father.

“Are you okay?”

-It’s obvious… . Was that your idea?

“What?”

-The head of the political affairs headquarters.

“ah… “It’s true that I suggested it, but the president made it into something more serious.”

-okay. Now you are effectively the king.

“What kind of king is the king? If you just shake off the Echion scum, I’ll beat you up. by the way… . Speaking of which, Is there really no other way to kill Echion? If his mother had memories… ”

-Since you have the knowledge of dragons, wouldn’t you be able to guess your mother’s thoughts? Don’t get me wrong. Hatchlings are not children. It’s not your other brother. When they grow up, even their functional motherhood disappears. The current Echion is just a fragment of power that goes against the will of its owner.

“… Yes.”

-You may not have time to worry about it, but even if you tolerate constant interruptions, variables will arise. If you get the chance, don’t hesitate to get rid of it.

“all right… . And indeed. These are the resources you mentioned back then. “If there is anything in particular that needs my attention, please let me know in advance.”

-… Ultimately, you must obtain three divine objects. To achieve that, global control and surveillance is needed. Humans are useless, their purpose is unknown, and they are items that cannot be destroyed, so if you look for them carefully, no matter who they are, they will be saved in the end.

“If you say that, how do you know? “Don’t you have a name or something?”

A barking sound was heard on the other end of the phone.

-So even if I tell you, you don’t know. Xylox’s Seal Stone, Nepteon’s Arcanum, and Balrog’s Top. If I do this, will you understand? This is just the name I call it. It wasn’t even named in the first place… . I’ll tell you how to recognize them next time I see you.

‘Xylox, Nepteon, Balrog?’

haha… . How could you not know about that mythical trash?

It was literally a mythical item, but its purpose was unknown, so it was a material item that only took up space in the warehouse.

It would be a waste to throw it away because it might find a place to be used later, and it would be a waste to leave it behind.

The difficulty level of acquisition was at mythical level, so I couldn’t abandon it in the end, and even after two years, no one in the world could discover the reason for the item’s existence. .

‘That’s what my father needed… .’

I guess they would have known since the only consumer disappeared in Chapter 1.

-Anyway. Thanks to your presence, I no longer have to insist on Korea.

But my father’s words continued, so I put my thoughts aside.

‘huh… ?’

for a moment.

There is no need to insist on Korea?

Because I have you?

In context, it was interpreted as ‘I think I can mobilize the power that Korea has.’

So does that mean you will conquer other countries right away?

-I won’t be able to contact you for a while.

“The phone isn’t working these days… “No, don’t hang up!”

Tiriring.

“Tsk… .”

[The character ‘Han Sang-cheol’ has given up on the event.]

[‘Chapter 1: The Age of Oppression’ ends abnormally.]

It goes like this… .

but. This is a natural result since the chapter’s goal has disappeared.

‘Well, it’s already a mess… .’

I thought it was that simple.

However, after a while, system messages appeared one after another, as if mocking my complacent thoughts.

[‘Chapter 2: Underwater Dungeon’ begins in 24 hours.]

[Chapter 3: Tower of Desire will begin in 24 hours.]

[Chapter 4: Gaebyeok begins in 24 hours.]

[‘Chapter 5: Metamorphosis’ begins in 24 hours.]

“Fuck you! “This isn’t it!”
