The Heavenly Demon Can't Live Ordinarily - Episode 486

omen phenomenon.
Park Ki-tae was at the moment when disaster was born..
Feeling that I couldn't handle it as an individual, I swallowed the rising guilt and tore up the teleportation scroll..
It was the right choice based on common sense..
Roman Dmitry and Kang Min-ho, who remained at the scene, could not avoid death, and the only thing they could do was take revenge on the ants..
however.
was alive.
When he met Roman Dmitry again, Park Ki-tae felt his heart sink..
‘I survived that hell?’
others don't know.
People who have not experienced the field may simply judge how great it is based on numbers, but the moment Park Ki-tae experienced was hopeless..
Ant eggs fill my field of vision. Ants flocking from holes everywhere.
Geographically, it was very disadvantageous for the minority to deal with the majority, and for humans who judge visually, the dark nature of the underground was a fatal problem that could not be revealed in numbers..
It didn't make sense..
The fact that he survived through that hell and came back in such good shape..
‘What kind of person is Roman Dmitry??’
It was from then on..
I have a doubt.
Rather than simply dissolving the doubts with the fact that he might be an S-class hunter, we looked into a person named Roman Dmitry..
No matter how much we investigated, nothing special was revealed..
His first action was to appear in Incheon with Kang Min-ho, and he suddenly revealed his presence in the ant cave incident..
Meanwhile.
Kim Jun-hyuk revealed the Red Moon incident..
As if a new witness had appeared, it was revealed that the culprit who destroyed Red Moon was Roman Dmitry..
The process was very shocking.
When Roman Dmitry first entered Incheon, he warned everyone not to approach him for a month..
Red Moon violated that fact and approached Roman Dmitri. Seeing that he was not cooperating, he tried to use the usual strategy of putting pressure on the opponent and conciliation..
Up to that point, it was a common occurrence in Incheon, but Roman Dmitry's response after that was unconventional..
he clearly warned.
You never know what will happen if you cross the line.
He dealt with Go Sang-ho, who had been making threats, on the spot, and went to Red Moon to completely eliminate any room for trouble..
a series of circumstances.
I got goosebumps.
I felt like I knew what kind of person Roman Dmitry was..
‘Are you sure. Roman Dmitry is a man whose words carry weight. Just as he dealt with Red Moon, who missed the one-month deadline, he started working in earnest as soon as the one-month deadline ended. The distinction between enemy and enemy is clear and there is no ambiguity. The same goes for defeating ant tunnels. Although it was clearly a difficult problem for an individual to handle, Roman Dmitry told me that he didn't mind if I ran away, as he was only entrusting me with directions. At first, he thought the statement that he would take care of the remaining problems was nonsense..’
It was in the same context.
The Red Moon Incident and the Ant Cave Incident.
Roman Dmitry turned his words into reality..
Like the name Dmitri, he may be Dmitry's successor..
Since the mayor of Incheon that Park Ki-tae remembers is a wise man, he thought that the union between Roman Dmitry and Kim Jun-hyuk might bring about great change in Incheon..
So, is it right to leave Incheon unconditionally? While he was pondering over and over again, something suspicious appeared in Park Ki-tae's eyes..
That's right.
It was Kang Min-ho’s presence..
* * *
Kang Min-ho is a very talented person..
At least that's what Park Ki-tae witnessed, but when I looked into it, I heard something different from what I expected..
“Kang Min-ho slaughtered dozens of soldier ants by himself? Oh, that's ridiculous. You must be mistaken, but the Kang Min-ho I know is by no means that kind of talented person. I understand that he awakened at a late age and only achieved E rank. How can he deal with dozens of soldier ants??”
“……Minho Kang? He was a decent person. We worked together a few times, but he wasn't particularly good, so we broke up quickly. You know. How common are people like that in this world?.”
“Minho Kang barely passed the E-level promotion review. As Park Ki-tae said, if he was a person capable of handling dozens of D-class soldier ants, it would mean that his appearance at that time was a lie. The problem is that there is no reason to lower the rating that much..”
everyone said.
Kang Min-ho was said to be suitable for grade E..
However, no matter how much he thought about it, the Kang Min-ho that Park Ki-tae experienced seemed to be two levels higher than him..
‘Could it be that the grade has been hidden all this time? That doesn't make sense. As the examiner said, there is no reason for that. Kang Min-ho lost his wife in a catastrophe 10 years ago, and after that, he lived as an ordinary person and woke up late. There is no reason for a person who always aims to enter Seoul to live in Incheon performing E-level missions even though he has such skills. Then, there is only one reason why a nothing being suddenly faced such a huge change. The only singularity in his life.’
Roman Dmitry.
It was him.
There was a high possibility that meeting him would have raised Kang Min-ho to his current level..
‘Kang Min-ho, who was an E-level hunter, met Roman Dmitri and became a high-level talent. Incheon Mayor Kim Jun-hyuk, who considers Incheon's safety a top priority, also chose to cut ties with the central government when meeting Roman Dmitry. The change all started with Roman Dmitry. That's the truth I found out.’
It was certain.
Incheon was undergoing upheaval..
An entity that may be S-rank.
Ever since Roman Dmitry appeared, something unusual has been happening here..
‘If he creates a powerful force that can oppose the central government?’
This might be an opportunity.
high risk high return).
Park Ki-tae thought that the hand he had in hand might be a great one..
* * *
Park Ki-tae said.
“……This is the information I found out so far. Roman Dmitry. Since his appearance, tremendous changes have been taking place in Incheon. Let’s try a reverse idea. If all the guilds in Incheon leave due to pressure from the central government, Cheongsan, the only one remaining in Incheon, can exert tremendous influence in Incheon by establishing a close relationship with the Incheon government. Of course, it must be based on the premise that the Incheon government survived. For that part, I want to trust the wisdom of Roman Dmitry and Incheon Mayor Kim Jun-hyuk, who did not run away even from the great disaster six years ago..”
“Hehehe.”
“The price of liquidation is too high to bet on such a hypothesis..”
some leaders.
They looked negative.
Some people were intrigued by Park Ki-tae's words, but they also agreed that it was a risky choice..
But Park Ki-tae did not back down..
“That's why there's a saying: high risk, high return. If we take big risks, it may pay off big. Where are you going to go after leaving Incheon? With the scale of Cheongsan, it is impossible to even dream of entering Seoul, and even if other regions establish themselves late, it is impossible to exert influence like in Incheon. everyone. No local power can easily solve a precursory phenomenon like this ant cave incident. However, Roman Dmitry solved the omen phenomenon on his own, and we are at a crossroads where we can choose to take the same path as that person..”
maybe.
No one will remain in Incheon except Cheongsan..
Although that is common sense in Korea, Park Ki-tae's insight into people has developed significantly while living as a guide..
It was a feeling.
The information you have learned so far is the people you remember..
I told Roman Dmitry to bet.
“Korea's only S-rank white-robed wizard. People who didn't recognize him at first thought about it and took the central government's side. On the other hand, what happened to the people who followed the white-robed wizard back then? It was a huge hit. Following the wizard in white, they are living an enviable life..”
raised my voice.
strongly emphasized.
In fact, he didn't mind deciding where to live as an individual..
However, it was judged that the Incheon government could receive recognition for its contribution if it supported Cheongsan..
Gu Cheol-ho was seriously worried..
It made sense..
However, as the saying goes, high risk, high return, if things went wrong, the liquidation could have collapsed completely..
Koo Cheol-ho said.
“But you don’t even belong to Cheongsan..”
that word.
I thought it would come out.
When asked if he would back out if things went wrong, Park Ki-tae spoke without hesitation..
“I will take this opportunity to begin liquidation, so please prepare a space for me. There are plenty of seats anyway. The moment Cheongsan decides to remain in Incheon, not everyone will agree, no matter how much it is the guild's decision. If they leave Cheongsan, they won't need talented people like me for Cheongsan.?”
that day.
The meeting lasted until late in the evening..
Some of the top executives got angry and ran out of the conference room, and Koo Cheol-ho decided to stay in Incheon along with Park Ki-tae..
* * *
It was as expected.
Remain in Incheon.
There was a huge backlash within the guild..
“The guild master is crazy.”
“No, the central government is saying it will split with the Incheon government, but what kind of guts does a guild that is barely liquidated have to remain in Incheon? If we remain in Cheongsan like this, we will fall into the same mess..”
“I'm a mercenary anyway. If Cheongsan makes a choice like this, a mercenary who follows the conditions has no choice but to leave..”
Mass departure of guild members.
Fortunately, there were many people who believed in Gu Cheol-ho, so about half stayed, but the other half announced that they would leave Cheongsan without looking back..
No one could blame them. Their choice was common sense, but I couldn't say that Koo Cheol-ho was right..
That wasn't all.
Cheongsan’s Cooperation Guild.
They left Incheon long ago and contacted Koo Cheol-ho..
“Guild leader Koo Cheol-ho. Are you really saying you want to stay in Incheon? Why on earth would you do such a crazy thing??”
“That would be tantamount to suicide. The central government is not lenient. They will use any means necessary to suppress those who interfere with their power, but how will Cheongsan survive under that pressure? There will definitely come a day when you will regret today. There's a reason why everyone doesn't do it.”
“Come to Daejeon. I will prepare a place for you..”
I received a flood of contacts..
I felt sick to my stomach..
Koo Cheol-ho wanted to change his decision right away..
“ha.”
building rooftop.
I looked down and sighed..
Contrary to the thoughts that dominated his mind, he simply could not leave Incheon..
6years ago.
There was romance here in Incheon..
Normally, when a city is attacked, even the leadership would run away, but thanks to the presence of Kim Jun-hyuk, who stayed until the end, the citizens of Incheon chose to fight..
Many people died. But we were able to protect so many people..
Most of the dead were people capable of fighting, and the non-combatants who hid in shelters were able to survive thanks to those who sacrificed their lives, led by Kim Jun-hyuk..
I still remember it clearly.
at that time.
People said thank you with tears in their eyes.
They were someone's family, and among those who expressed their gratitude was Koo Cheol-ho's elderly mother..
dead now.
It was a natural death, which was unusual in this era..
The day I let go of my old mother, I felt grateful to Kim Jun-hyuk for granting my mother such a blessing..
In fact, if you didn't want to.
I would not have agreed to Park Ki-tae’s persuasion..
Because his heart wants Incheon, Koo Cheol-ho appeared shaken even though some leaders pointed out how absurd Park Ki-tae's remarks were..
I didn't want to leave Incheon.
It is true that he founded a mercenary guild to make money, but behind it, he had pride in the act of helping people..
So it remained.
Because someone will stay in Incheon.
wanted to be with them.
I didn’t want to leave Incheon Mayor Kim Jun-hyuk’s side..
As a hunter, he wanted to endure bad cigarettes, but Gu Cheol-ho ended up putting the cigarette in his mouth and inhaling the smoke deeply..
It was then.
“Guild leader. Here's a scoop!”
A guild member came to the rooftop..
Looking at him with questioning eyes, the guild member spoke urgently..
“Kang Min-ho, whom Park Ki-tae mentioned. He succeeded in being promoted to 2nd level a little while ago.!”
“what?”
Tuk.
A cigarette fell from his mouth..
2only promotion.
It's been several years since I woke up..
That was beyond common sense..
