EP.809 code name Joe -2 (6)
***
“Now.”
As soon as he heard the name after a long time, Alpha One slammed his glass down.
“I told you not to call me by that name.”
The threat of the Big Three representing America. But the man who called his name continued to speak without paying attention.
“Test subject number A-0 from the New Brave Project. A-Zero for short.”
“… .”
“Or would you like me to call you by another name?”
Kwajik. Alpha One grabbed the glass, smashed it, and slowly turned his head.
“Please shut your mouth, Joseph.”
Joseph Kennedy. He inherited the sad eyes and broad forehead from his father, Robert Kennedy, and he trudged towards Alpha One.
Alpha One simply took out a new glass and did not touch Joseph. Was it because he was a presidential candidate he had to protect? No, it was because Joseph was holding an incredibly expensive bottle of whiskey in his hand.
“Glenfiddich 1937. You know the value of this wine.”
“… I can buy that alcohol whenever I want.”
“What matters is not the price, but the rarity. You know how rare Scottish whiskey has become since the fall of Britain.”
“… .”
Thump, Joseph set the bottle down on the table. The shards of the cup that Alpha One had shattered a moment ago glittered and illuminated the bottle as if in praise.
Regardless, Alpha One looked back and forth between the bottle and Joseph’s face with an indifferent look in his eyes.
“I don’t know what you’re asking for, but fuck you.”
“We haven’t said anything yet.”
“A favor to ask of me, bringing a billion-dollar bottle of alcohol? It’s obvious even if I don’t ask.”
“… .”
Joseph nodded instead of denying it. Alpha One blew on the bottle of cheap whiskey he was drinking.
“If you know, then just get out. I’m busy just guarding you.”
“Can’t you be a little more friendly?”
“Considering what your godfather did, you should know better than to treat this as a minor offense.”
“My godfather was a bit extreme. But regardless, I am the Republican candidate for president.”
“That’s why your balls don’t fly off and you’re still alive. Stop talking nonsense and get out of here.”
Alpha One growled, slightly raising his mana, but Joseph didn’t even blink.
Instead, he lifted the bottle of alcohol and… slammed it down on the table.
“This crazy kid!”
The surprised Alpha One reached out and stopped the bottle. He stopped it so carefully that there was not a single scratch on the bottle of Glenfiddich 1937.
Joseph smiled as if he had expected that and took his hand away from the bottle.
“It’s fortunate that the precious liquor wasn’t thrown away.”
“… .”
“Anyway, can I tell you my request now?”
“Every time I see a fucking baby.”
Even though he said that, Alpha One didn’t let go of the bottle. Joseph smiled once more.
“You know the identity of the red star, right?”
“I asked a question… How could I know something that even the CIA doesn’t know?”
“You know.”
“I said I don’t know.”
“Alpha One, please… don’t lie to a politician like me. If you really didn’t know, you would have told me someone else. In other words, if you deny knowing, it means you know, or at least have an idea.”
“… .”
Alpha One, who had been carefully handling the bottle of liquor, frowned. Everything Joseph said was true.
After all, it wasn’t like he got the presidential nomination for free. Alpha One, who had been quiet for a moment, said, “Zeeing!” After cutting off the spout of the Glenfiddich bottle with a weak alpha beam, he said.
“I don’t know what you want, but I’m not interested in combat. I’m just protecting you.”
“While drinking?”
“You were the one who said you liked me drunk more than a sober maker.”
Joseph furrowed his eyebrows as if to ask if she knew that much, then handed the glass to Alpha One and said.
“I don’t want a fight. What I want is a conversation.”
“Conversation? A conversation between the Republican presidential candidate and the next secretary. Are you thinking of signing a nuclear disarmament treaty?”
“Similar. He’s like me in that he doesn’t want a cold war. At least I think there’s room for dialogue.”
“Fuck it.”
“I am serious.”
“The truth is, I don’t like the fact that Ron McCain and that guy are hanging out together.”
“Well, I wouldn’t say I don’t have that kind of feeling at all.”
Alpha One clicked his tongue and filled his glass. The sound of the liquor flowing down was pleasant as it filled his glass. Joseph was like taffy, but the scent of the whiskey he brought was a treasure that could not be compared to anything else.
Anyway, Joseph spoke with his glass still held out.
“Wouldn’t it be difficult to just convey the message?”
“Answer me politely one more time. Jo-o-t-.”
“Glenfiddich 1937… Actually, I have two more bottles. They’re heirlooms from my godfather.”
“… .”
“And three more days.”
“3 days?”
“If you want, I can completely block FBI and CIA surveillance for three days. It’ll be a long-awaited vacation. How about that?”
Alpha One’s hand, which was holding the glass, stopped. But soon, he left a lip print on the whiskey glass without any hesitation.
He sipped his whiskey slowly, then put his glass down with a thud.
“A week.”
“No matter how big the country is, a week is difficult.”
“hmm.”
Alpha One said, filling the glass once more.
“Two bottles of Glenfiddich 1937, five days off on any day I want.”
“…I will accept it.”
“Okay, it’s a deal, Joseph.”
Alpha One stood up, taking the bottle and glass with him.
Joseph looked back and forth between his empty glass and the back of Alpha One walking away, then shouted before he left the room.
“How long do I have to wait?”
“You will receive a reply within ten days at the most.”
Ten days. It wasn’t a very satisfying reward for wasting three bottles of precious whiskey and political power… but there was no room for losers in an election, and to win, you had to risk some bloodshed.
Joseph leaned back in his chair quietly.
And in the meantime, Alpha One left the room and flew out the window, clutching the bottle of alcohol tightly.
To find someone who knows the identity of the red star… no, someone who knows everything in the world.
***
The journey to the Elf Forest was peaceful.
Ferrolu’s driving skills were like an angel’s compared to a saint, and the truck’s container was small but cozy enough for everyone to sleep together.
Above all, the fertilizer road was safe.
As if to prove that the collapsing empire was desperately investing its national power, imperial military bases and patrolling knights could be seen here and there along the fertilizer road.
In addition, the nobles of Asha, rather than blocking the fertilizer road that ran through their territory, risked their lives to secure the rest area. The profits from the logistics warehouse and the sale of local specialties were so lucrative that they were willing to change the nobles’ traditions.
The most frequently encountered territory was that of the Lerak family, but Dawn didn’t pay much attention to it. However, Peroru, an orc born in Asha, would curse the Lerak family whenever he passed by.
Anyway, the trip was so peaceful that Lashik said this.
“I thought a robber would come out… but surprisingly, Asha is peaceful too?”
Neti kept poking Lashik in the ribs, asking where he was using the summoning spell, but since then there hasn’t been a single robbery, let alone a single car accident.
Thanks to this, Dawn was able to meditate without worrying about anything else.
-The disciple is organizing the enlightenment he gained in Apollo City, so do not touch him. Especially Somi-ri. Physical contact is prohibited in the container where everyone can see him! Do you understand?!
-Then would it be okay outside the container?
-Stop acting like a saint!
It was partly thanks to Corvus’s supporting fire, but whatever.
As the peaceful time continued, the group spent their time in their own ways.
Corvus climbed onto the moving truck and watched the surroundings. Dilla was busy making something out of the bones that Dzhugashvili had left behind, Lashik was mixing simple potions, and Neti and Siri were each absorbed in their training next to Dawn.
And the iron-
[A shot with the meditating dawn.jpg]
[With the future secretary.jpg]
[Things a saint can’t do.jpg]
[Aren’t you jealous? Aren’t you jealous? Aren’t you jealous?.jpg]
I sent a text message to the saint and Salome with all my might to report the situation(?). It was a cowardly attack that took advantage of the weakness of the other warrior party members who had to cross the dimensional gate to send a text message.
And the reply that came back was just as Soemiri had expected.
[My mother is also Soviet anyway. You’re not the only communist.]
[If you’re a princess, behave like a princess. Before you end up like the Hohenzollerns.]
It was so much fun teasing the two of them that he kept teasing them until Sethi sent a text saying [Stop].
Well, anyway.
After confirming that Yeomyeong and her party were safe, Miri kept in touch with Seti throughout the truck trip and confirmed the secret route into the Elf Forest.
It might have sounded a bit funny that she, an elf princess, would sneak into the elf forest, but it was a political issue.
The Elf Forest was outwardly complying with the Malta announcement of refraining from armed activity between Asha and Earth. Therefore, the current activities of the World Tree Revolutionary Group, including her, were nothing more than the crimes of a small number of unofficial terrorists.
In short, it was a state of peace that everyone knew was a lie. It was a kind of blind peace that lasted because the Earthlings’ greed for the elixir and the elves’ need for time to prepare for war were aligned.
In that situation, if Miri confidently enters the main gate? The UN will arrest Miri and use her as bait to politically pressure the elves.
‘Then can’t we just sneak in first and go in through the main gate?’
Although Netty made such a reactionary point, it was quickly suppressed by the sweet chestnut of the dawn. It was a management method worthy of the secretary.
And when that peaceful journey was ripe.
Somi took out a map and spread it out in front of the group.
“… Well, our peaceful truck journey ends today. When we arrive at the Legare River later, we will abandon the truck and take a boat.”
The Regae River that Soemiri mentioned on the map meant a large river that runs through the east-west central part of the Asha continent.
The Regaere River was structured like the Han River in Korea, with numerous rivers branching out from a large river trunk, some of which led to the Elven Forest.
He explained in advance by pointing to the waterway drawn on the map.
“If you go down this waterway, you can reach the northern part of the Elven Forest in two days. The northern forest is a temperate forest with many conifers, so the schedule will be easy.”
What about the gentle forest? And are there also aggressive forests? Neti raised her hand and asked, as Dawn tilted her head.
“Then who will steer the boat?”
“Of course I’ll drive.”
“I thought you knew how to drive a boat, Sister?”
“Yeah, and I know how to drive Corvus too.”
Now that I think about it, the way Corvus came to the Academy was also different… Yeomyeong looked at Corvus and recalled old memories.
However, Corvus was saying something like, ‘If I steer the ship, everyone will get seasick. Are you okay with that?’
In any case, no one in the group opposed Miri’s plan. She was the only one who knew the geography of this area, and it was also thanks to this peaceful trip that they were able to enjoy it for once.
Neti, who is sensitive to clichés, uses a robber summoning spell saying, “A peaceful trip with brother-in-law, so there won’t be robbers swarming at the last minute, right?”
Osiris responded by saying, “It would be more novel if the commies showed up.”
The atmosphere was such that the other party members could laugh off that level of joke.
It was in this atmosphere that Peroru arrived at the road where the fertilizer road and the Legare River meet.
What was waiting for the group on the riverside road made by piling up dirt and rocks right next to the river was… .
-Notice to all drivers who are currently on this road. From now on, this place is under the control of our Red Star Children. Get out of your cars immediately and get down on the ground!!
They were robbers disguised as communists. They weren’t one or two, but a group of robbers so numerous that they could block the riverside road.
The guys’ armament wasn’t bad either, with most of the robbers carrying Earth-made AK-47 rifles, and some of them even armed with anti-tank rockets, commonly called magic wands.
Are they not robbers, but warlords? The moment Yeomyeong, who was sitting in the driver’s seat, got out of the car while pulling up her mana, the guys started talking strangely.
-The Red Star Secretary General said that he would not take the lives of obedient workers!!
“… .”
-If you don’t want to die, get off the car right away!
No, so the name was Children of the Red Star?? While Yeomyeong was looking at the leader of the robbers with a bewildered expression, Neti, who got out of the container, asked cautiously.
“Those guys, we didn’t show up because we memorized a spell, did we? Right??”
Dawn answered with a vision of bloody tears on her face.
“… Let’s catch it and check it out.”
The next moment, a crimson aura filled the riverside road.
