#Episode 246, Depth of Heart

“Whew. “This is how we have passed this difficult time.”

I didn’t know that I would be dealing with Chae Seung-yeon and Seo Yoon-seo like this… .

Although their relationship wasn’t deep enough to make them feel sad, Chae Seung-yeon and Seo Yoon-seo also probably had a lot to say.

In particular, Chae Seung-yeon lost her position as president of the Superhuman Association when the reform government took office.

I lost my job with a sense of duty because I was involved with my father.

Originally, it was natural for the head of an organization to retire when he was pushed out, but the problem was that Chae Seung-yeon was too old.

It’s a situation where I feel sorry for no reason.

‘Seo Yoon-seo… .’

If we had met separately at this point, I think I would have died under the barrage of questions.

Maybe he was thinking of coming to consult about his situation.

If Handong Media was truly under Echion’s influence, Seo Yoon-seo would have suffered from the family’s stance that she could not understand.

Anyway, it was a good thing that the three of us got together in the end.

‘Clearly, all three are people who can provide the best help in their respective positions.’

In fact, I was not sure if my current choice to control information was right based on my personal judgment.

The only way is to avoid chaos that can be seen even without looking, such as supermarkets being robbed or roads and airports being paralyzed.

However, I have clearly learned that if there are many boatmen, variables can arise.

Before contacting Jeong Soo-bon, I spoke with Ga Guk-hyun on the phone, thinking I should still inform the president.

He came up with the absurd idea of ​​requesting support from the Rakvisha Army.

‘Well, isn’t that a very absurd opinion…? ?’

Of course, it will be of great help in terms of power.

No, it’s just helpful, right?

Yushin’s army was an elite unit from the planet Rakvisha.

So to speak, it is the world’s allied force there.

As it is the home of the artifact, the abilities of each super soldier could be said to be far superior to the average on Earth.

‘… But that’s not it.’

In conclusion, I decided absolutely not to do it.

The president was more stubborn than I thought, so I had a hard time persuading him.

The area where the Rakvisha army was already stationed was virtually their occupied territory.

This is because in the first place, countries that had difficulty in self-defense or were in need of help ceded difficult areas to Yushin.

furthermore.

‘… … ‘I can’t completely trust him yet.’

Even though our relationship wasn’t that bad – he didn’t know when or what Yushin’s soul would long for.

“What a timing… .”

If I had a father, I wouldn’t have had to worry about this.

With a bitter taste in my mouth, I searched for Taekwang Guild’s main number.

***

A gate site in Bundang.

A group of men lined up in front of the gate and shouted loudly.

“““Thank you for your hard work!”””

“OK. “You guys worked hard too.”

They were members of the Taekwang guild who welcomed Park Dae-geun.

“really. “My son too.”

Park Dae-geun turned around and mischievously messed up the hair of Park Tae-gwang, who was following him.

“damn. Come on?”

“Seed? you bastard “Why are you being so mean to your dad these days?”

“Do I have to go with Dad? Am I a kid? “People laugh at me.”

“You heard it too. “How scary is the atmosphere these days?”

It was rare for the guild leader to come to the scene in person, but recently Daegeun Park was conducting a kind of joint investigation at the request of the association.

This is due to dungeon crimes that have increased significantly over the past few weeks.

“I’m saying it’s not like I’m going to get left behind even if my dad doesn’t follow me…” .”

“If they really thought they were that bad, would the association have asked for my cooperation?”

It has been quite a long time since dungeon crimes have simply increased.

Korea, which originally implemented the gate bidding system, had a very low crime rate, but after becoming the world’s most gate-frequent country, the bidding system could no longer be maintained.

As the concept of priority disappeared, conflicts between guilds naturally became more frequent.

As wandering hunters looking for a stable livelihood gather from all over the world, secret disputes and conspiracies have become more frequent.

Nevertheless, although dungeon crimes were not originally the subject of investigation,

Not long ago, a series of blatant massacres occurred without even the slightest effort to cover up the crimes.

It was a situation where a worse association had drawn its sword.

“and. Who dares laugh at Taekwang’s Park Tae-kwang?”

“Oh, it’s embarrassing, so don’t say that!”

“What man? “Is Abby embarrassed?”

“No, Taekwang’s Park Tae-kwang. The son of Cheolsu Bunsik in our neighborhood is Cheolsu Kim. “How is this different from walking around?”

“Hey you bastard. “That and this are different!”

“It’s no different to me!”

“… … .”

Park Dae-geun, who saw his son’s determined behavior, made a sullen expression.

Park Tae-kwang said as he passed by his father.

“Don’t act. “If you come to the scene, please give the employees food.”

“Oh oh!”

“thank you for this food!”

“Wow!”

The guild members, who had been watching the father and son bickering while holding their breath, cheered at once.

‘I was already going to shoot. ‘You bastard.’

The moment Park Dae-geun was walking away, a familiar black sedan pushed right in front of the scene.

Sigh!

“uh? “It looks like the vice guild leader’s car?”

As one member said, it was his close friend Heo Jeong-gwon who should be at the guild headquarters right now.

Weeing─.

Heo Jeong-kwon stuck his head out the car window and shouted.

“Get on quickly! Urgent!”

“!”

As Park Dae-geun quickly approached the passenger seat, Heo Jeong-kwon gestured toward Park Tae-gwang.

“Taekwang, get in too.”

“Oh, me too? yes.”

Crash. Crunch.

Empty! Empty!

As the father and son got into the car back and forth, Heo Jeong-kwon spoke to the guild members outside.

“You should return to headquarters immediately.”

“… All right.”

When the senior member of the group answered, Heo Jeong-kwon immediately turned his car around and left the scene.

Park Dae-geun asked as if he was frustrated.

“What on earth is going on?”

“Let’s look at this first and then talk.”

When Heo Jeong-kwon touched the car display a few times while steering with one hand, a news screen showing the Blue House from the air was played.

“omg!”

“100 million!”

The father and son sighed at the same time.

Taekwang Park seemed as if he would jump out between the driver’s seat and the passenger seat.

“Uh, that… Ha, Seongjun Han… !”

Even though Park Dae-geun was surprised, he quickly watched the video by touching it.

“When did this happen?”

“It’s only been a few hours. It’s been about an hour or two since you guys started the attack. Now, you won’t treat me like a crazy person. “I got a call from Seongjun before I came here.”

“what? “To you?”

Taekwang Park suddenly intervened.

“Seo, are you Seongjun? “How on earth have you been, or where have you been?”

Heo Jeong-kwon shook his head.

“It wasn’t me, it was done to the guild. There was no time to say hello and share good news. “You immediately predicted another disaster.”

““… !””

Han Seong-jun is a person who already predicted the Seoul incident.

If it was his words, there was no need for unnecessary verification.

“23 hours, there are only about 22 hours left.”

“My, tomorrow? So what should you do?”

“Are you asking for help?”

“I told all branch members to gather together and respond. “Otherwise, we will all be wiped out individually.”

“her! … “Where is it?”

“the way you want. It seems there are no blind spots in this land. “To minimize confusion, I think I will control information except for the final evacuation warning.”

“It’s crazy, it’s a national disaster… . “No matter how small a country it is, that’s true.”

Park Dae-geun, who was muttering as if in a daze, slowly opened his mouth as he watched the confrontation between Han Sang-cheol and Han Seong-jun, who additionally appeared in the video.

The same goes for Taekwang Park, who was watching the video from the back seat.

“… … .”

“… … .”

Heo Jeong-kwon, who was paying attention to the front while driving, could tell what scene Park and his wife were watching just by looking at the atmosphere inside the car.

“It’s to the point where we can no longer be considered the same human being.”

Park Dae-geun could not respond to Heo Jeong-kwon’s sentiments.

He said he could see as much as he knew, and as an S-ranked person, he was feeling greater shock and trepidation than Heo Jeong-kwon.

Also, what about Han Sang-cheol?

The ability that General Han was hiding was also at a level that he could not estimate.

But even more than the monstrous stature of the Han family… .

I felt deep regret as a human being and as a father about the situation Han Seong-jun found himself in.

‘Tsk tsk… . Like that… .’

Park Dae-geun was in a position to sympathize more with the feelings of the father than with the child, but the assumption that a father and son would be divided over a cause or belief was painful.

‘The part where Seongjun goes beyond being a criminal… , It may be the depth of the heart rather than the level of power.’

Even though I’m having a hard time, I don’t forget that he’s my friend and I take care of him.

“Taekwang… .”

“… “Uh, huh?”

Taekwang Park, who had been fixating his eyes on the screen without blinking, turned his head a little later.

Park Dae-geun said to his son.

“I have two children named Taekwang.”

“what… ? “Did you cheat on your father?”

Park Dae-geun laughed bitterly.

Comparing it to the Han family, I thought it was a blessing that their son’s brain was pure.

“That’s not to say, Guild Taekwang and Park Taekwang are both like children to me.”

“ah… . so?”

“Abby will protect Guild Taekwang. “No matter what happens in the remaining 22 hours, find Han Seong-jun and give him strength.”

“… Uh, uh! “That’s how it should be!”

Taekwang Park, who had already planned to go see Seongjun right away, answered strongly.

“mister. “I’ll get off here.”

Heo Jeong-kwon, who had already heard the President’s speech and the news that followed, changed lanes and spoke to Park Tae-kwang.

“You can go to the political affairs headquarters in the new government building.”

***

DH Guardians Guild Headquarters.

Song Yeon-hee waved a piece of A4 paper as she entered the representative office.

Flap, flutter!

“Representative Ma! What is this all of a sudden? “An emergency call?”

It was a summons notice to all branches – to stop all operations immediately and go to Seoul.

Although it was already in Seoul, Song Yeon-hee, one of the branch heads, received the official letter and came running.

“Do you know how much the national branch would lose if it stopped for just one day?”

Ma Dong-wook must have been on the phone just a moment ago, so he put down the receiver and started babbling.

“If I were to criticize you, I would criticize you. Why are there so many words… .”

This was because tempers were slowly rising due to a flood of calls from heads of each branch expressing similar questions to Song Yeon-hee.

“W-what?”

“Song Yeon-hee is the head of the southern Seoul branch, not the old Director Song. “If you don’t learn how to manage the headquarters and will continue to be at Guardians, please follow the example of the CEO.”

“… … .”

Song Yeon-hee’s face turned red at Ma Dong-wook’s comment.

… Because it wasn’t wrong.

Ma Dong-wook moved to the sofa, offering Song Yeon-hee a seat.

“Sit.”

“… yes.”

Ma Dong-wook asked while observing Song Yeon-hee’s expression, which looked either distressed or sad.

“The branch manager must have seen the news about Han Seong-jun, right?”

“… yes.”

Even though I was already complicated and confused because of that incident, I ended up blaming CEO Ma for no reason and couldn’t get my head around it.

“How is it? Mind.”

Song Yeon-hee was slightly taken aback by Ma Dong-wook’s unexpected question and then said.

“What do you think?” Just amazing… It’s a shame, that’s right. “What kind of question is this?”

“What a shame… do?”

“That’s right. As long as I was alive… , really! Speaking of which, you know that if Han Seong-jun’s identity is restored, our contract must be restored as well, right? “You might be dead, but don’t let a contract worth tens of billions of dollars go to waste.”

Ma Dong-wook said with a bitter smile.

“With a contract like that, you will never have Seongjun Han.”

“W-what are you talking about! I have the company’s natural rights… .”

“There’s no need to make excuses to me like that.”

“What an excuse! “Why did I ask the CEO-!”

“anyway. It looks like Seongjun Han didn’t forget about us either.”

“… … ?”

“I received a call from Seongjun Han.”

“!”

“That was the reason for the convocation notice.”
