The crazy villain regains his mind - Episode 123
123fury
“What?”
Lee Yu-cheol’s eyes turned into a triangle shape. This guy who looks like a dry corpse is ever-changing..
Does it matter because he will be invoiced soon?.
“Anyway, I can't come to my senses because I'm not treated well..”
Is my name not known in North Korea??
Well, I used to worry about when my name was known and not..
I stretched out my hand without hesitation.
“omg!”
The guy was so scared that he didn't know he was going to attack and lay down on his back..
I didn't care, I loaded the mine with my foot and kicked where he was..
bang!
However, the guy who rolled to the side managed to avoid it..
This guy is the Foreign Minister? Isn’t the Foreign Minister in charge of diplomacy?.
As expected, what I saw was accurate. This guy has some pretty useful skills..
But that's not particularly meaningful.
I was lucky at first to avoid it, but after a couple of attacks I was cornered..
The arm of the guy who was hit by the mine carried by my foot was broken..
Crackling!
“Shut up!”
Although he was moaning in pain, his eyes were shining and he reached out his hand to me. It's a very common cliché to get caught off guard. I grabbed him lightly and broke his wrist..
puck!
When I kicked the shin, I heard a snapping sound. Nevertheless, it did not break his fighting spirit and attacked him, cutting him to pieces from both shoulders, arms, and legs..
Will is useful, but exerting that will on me means nothing..
At that time, a group of people gathered inside. It was a group of people calling themselves the Democratic People's Republic of Korea who followed Ri Yu-cheol..
They saw Ri Yu-cheol with his arms and legs folded and his eyes rolled back, and they rushed at me..
“Mr. President!”
The head of the security department quickly approached the president and warned Lee Yu-cheol's group not to approach..
Anyway, their target is me..
I can't stand it when I see them all together like that..
I reflexively cast Bladestorm..
They were shocked by the swirling force blades, but they were quicker to be swept away by the storm of blades..
The awakened people, who had been alive and well until a moment ago, were trapped in the force blade and torn to pieces..
patter!
Flesh and blood were sprinkled on the floor and walls without even leaving a trace..
“…….”
The hall was engulfed in silence. The President was looking at the scene I had created with wide eyes. The security guards around me also looked at me with fear and awe..
I approached Lee Yu-cheol without any heed..
“Hey, wake up.”
“Ugh…….”
The guy let out a weak moan and trembled..
I kicked him a few times and he barely opened his eyes..
There is no way a high-level awakened person will die easily. Humans can die easily, but they can also show such tenacity that one wonders if they can survive this..
“From now on, answer each question one by one..”
“My, why did I… Wow!”
Quack!
I held his shaky hand and pulverized one joint..
“You don't have to say it. There are a lot of places to break down.”
profit!
“Ugh!”
When I sprayed the healing agent, a scream came out of the guy's mouth..
“Ryu Kwang -cheol.”
“How dare I… Turn it off!”
“try.”
Quad Deuk!
I didn't care and broke each node one by one. Lee Yu-cheol clenched his teeth, but to me, who knows well how to harass people, it's just funny..
“I won't do it like this?”
Crunchy!
“You don't have to say it, but.”
simplicity and honesty!
“At this point, I wonder how long I can last..”
“…….”
“Just keep holding on. I don't care.”
Ri Yu-cheol and I met our gazes. The boy's eyes, consumed by pain, wandered and soon began to tremble uncontrollably. And muttered in a dying voice.
“…Ryu Kwang -cheol.”
“good job.”
“please kill me.”
“Actually, I don't need your cooperation for what I'm curious about..”
My hands covered his head..
* * *
Ri Yu-cheol was in a dazed mood, drool was dripping from his mouth..
“…….”
The hall was enveloped in silence. Is it because a lot of things happened suddenly?.
There's still a lot left to process..
I winked at the security chief and pointed to the surviving self-proclaimed Democratic People's Republic of Korea guys..
“I think we just need to make them open their mouths..”
The word refers to a nation, but in the end, they are just a bunch of people occupying a small piece of land and playing kingdom. It would be better to take this opportunity to shake off any information you have in your head..
If you compare it with what Lee Yu-cheol will say, you will get a rough outline..
“Oh, I see..”
The security chief issued a suppression order..
However, they seemed to have no will to resist and surrendered obediently..
He doesn't show the same determination as Lee Yu-cheol. I feel sorry for something.
I took a sip and approached the president..
“Are you okay?.”
“Other than being a little surprised, I'm fine. by the way.”
The president's eyes on me were strange. It wasn't like feeling fear or awe at seeing me kill someone..
After all, not just anyone can become president of a country..
“I understand why people are so upset about Choi Jun-ho..”
“Did you feel uncomfortable??”
“No way. I can get over this with a smile..”
The President's arms were shaking as he said that..
You're overdoing it..
“What will they do? It is also possible to extract information right here and now..”
The President shook his head..
“Do you rely on Choi Jun-ho’s superhuman skills for everything? I can try to appease you, so I'll try to deal with it as conciliatory as possible..”
“All right.”
I decided to leave the rest to the president and looked around..
It will be difficult to clean if you see blood and flesh splattered..
* * *
After that, things went smoothly..
Ri Yu-cheol, who was brainwashed, revealed that he was the Foreign Minister, Minister of State Security, and a standing committee member..
It was a structure where everyone ate it..
The fact that a level 7 awakened person was holding such concurrent positions meant that the talent pool was narrow..
I'm sure there's no one there..
“Little information could be obtained about monster control or Ryu Gwang-cheol. It is said that the structure is such that it is impossible to move up without thorough loyalty verification..”
“The bad things, then and now, are strikingly similar..”
The President, who had calmed down to some extent, muttered with a calm expression..
Still, if there is a harvest, it is that their base is located near Pyongyang, and they are said to be using the old North Korean infrastructure that is safe..
And one of the crucial pieces of information is that Ryu Gwang-cheol drunkenly said that there are twelve level 8 monsters centered around their base..
They call them the twelve gods of the zodiac..
“Umm. That's a lot.”
A sigh flowed from the President's mouth. Cheon Myeong-guk tried to get more information, but Lee Yu-cheol couldn't hold out any longer and died..
Did I treat you a little harshly??
Anyway, there was some useful information, but it wasn't as much as I thought. Seeing that I was hiding this much from even my close associates, I thought it was true that I was a bastard..
“Shall I go and cut off his head??”
“Is there any reason to jump into a place that is a monster field? Times like these require thorough preparation..”
The president seemed to be struggling with the idea that there were 12 Level 8 remains..
Whether it's a bluff or not, the fact that Ryu Gwang-cheol can handle a level 8 harmful monster seems to be worrying..
There are times when I see it a bit too much..
But you won't be able to handle them all at once. If they could handle that number, the greedy guy would have pushed right down to the south..
“Are you going to give up?.”
“The enemy's power is too strong. If ten monsters attack at once by controlling monsters, you won't be able to stop them..”
Well, although there have been times when monsters have appeared simultaneously, there are not many cases where they attack all at once. The president was worried about that..
If you are not careful, the precious military power of the Republic of Korea could be completely destroyed at once..
Hmm, but why don’t I feel any sense of crisis??
It's not because you can throw yourself out there in one go. Anyway, there is bound to be a limit to attacking me all at once, so if you feel like you are running out of strength after killing one or two, you can just leave..
“You trust me.”
“Is that okay??”
“yes.”
“Good, Director Cheon. Immediately seek cooperation from a large guild. Instead, privately share the information you gained today. Make sure to only support those who will do it.”
“All right.”
* * *
The Holy Guild was the first to respond to the Blue House's proposal, followed by the Asgardian Guild. The Reaper Guild suffered heavy damage in the previous hunt and retreated, saying they needed time..
First of all, they succeeded in attracting two of the three major guilds..
It didn't stop there, Lee Se-hee came looking for me. He was dressed modestly, but joked that he had to look good for me..
“The fact that the government will not back down and press ahead with the advance to the North is because Mr. Jun-ho showed confidence..”
…Is this guy a ghost too? He knew exactly what I was saying..
“I think it's worth a try.”
“Yes, I'm betting on Junho's confidence..”
“You know that if you fail, the risk is high.?”
I tried to scare him a little, but what came back was a triumphant snort..
“I know. But this is a bet you can’t lose. As long as Junho is there, there won't be much damage..”
Your faith in me is firm. When you say it like this, it’s hard to say anything more..
Well, I don't need humility when I can't even do it..
Anyway, now it's time to make a choice..
“Please include Yunhee in this hunt too..”
“yes? But isn’t that what Junho was hesitant about??”
Lee Se-hee's concerns are valid. It may seem like the Shinsung Guild is trying to catch me by putting Yoon-hee in the spotlight, and it may seem like I am taking care of Yoon-hee..
I know that it was said out of consideration for me and Yunhee. But it can't go on like this forever.
At times like this, what Dahyun Jeong said comes to mind..
So what should I do?.
If you don't seize important opportunities because you're worried about what's going on around you, it will ultimately lead to big losses..
“You can't miss the guild's important events just because you care about me. He needs to roll more too. Let's make one thing clear. Yoonhee is unnecessary power.?”
“no.”
Lee Se-hee answered firmly..
“Yoonhee is a very important force and future for the Holy Guild. I think Yoonhee has the potential to become a superhuman in the future. So I want to support her in everything she can do to become stronger. But Junho said he wouldn't mind, so we'll move without worrying about it. As a member of the Holy Guild, thank you for your concern..”
“So how much are you going to mobilize??”
Lee Se-hee grinned..
“Everything!”
It's big..
* * *
Unintentionally, I dragged out all members of the Holy Guild to participate in the war and headed to Kaesong for reconnaissance and training for Jeong Da-hyun..
Since my red toma died, I recently bought a subcompact car again. He chose white instead of red and gave it the name Pegasus..
It’s a satisfying ride that hasn’t changed..
Jeong Da-hyun, who was sitting next to me, said she took vacation today, but seeing her take vacation and go to training made me think that this wasn't normal either..
In my last life, I was upright and just. You didn’t feel strange when you met me, right? Oh, no way. I'm normal, so there's no way Jeong Da-hyun, who was affected, would become strange..
If something goes wrong, it's likely Jung Joo-ho's fault. Judging by the fuss being made towards me, it seems like hair loss hysteria is worse than I thought..
“Sehee made a big decision..”
“It's a big decision.”
“Yoonhee is going too.?”
“I didn't know, but I had a lot of trust in it..”
In my eyes, you are a child without any consequences..
Dahyun Jeong smiled..
“He may be young in your eyes, but he is a great hunter who does his job. I'm training hard every day so as not to be a nuisance to my brother..”
“Then I'm glad.”
“You need to trust Yunhee more..”
is it. Because the only thing I see every day is the sofa and the image of one thing..
“no. They say they work really hard.?”
From then on, I had to nag Yunhee for about 10 minutes, telling her that she should recognize her efforts..
…I said it for no reason.
I changed the topic.
“Why did the Holy Guild mobilize its entire force?.”
“Because I trust you.”
“me?”
“Actually, there is no superhuman I can trust more than my brother..”
“okay?”
You look like a ghost.
It was consistent with what Sehee Lee said about betting on my confidence..
In fact, have I become an icon of trust without even knowing it??
“I have never failed to achieve my goal, and the process is quick and clear. Although it is a short period of time, the achievements my brother has made are significant. As I have done it perfectly, people around me have been able to trust and follow me. Me too right now.”
I still feel awkward receiving someone's trust. I've never really accepted the trust of those around me. It's not that I don't like it. Rather good.
But if I have to be bound by responsibility for that, I want to decline..
Responsibility is still something that doesn't go together like oil and water to me..
When we arrived at Kaesong, we headed a little higher. Then, when we arrived at a place where humans could no longer reach, we got out of the car and went in search of the monster..
1After searching around for about an hour, I succeeded in finding a monster of the level I wanted..
“Today is the first day, so let’s go quickly.”
The original plan was to drop Jeong Da-hyun in front of the 7th level monster..
However, I thought it would take some time to get used to the monster, so I changed my mind and lowered it to level 6..
Dahyun Jeong nodded with a determined expression..
“yes.”
“When hunting monsters, what you need to aim for is the neck. The best is to pierce the heart or brain..”
Among them, the brain is the best. It is often difficult to find the heart of monsters with bizarre bodies, but it is not difficult to find where the brain is..
Sometimes guys with small brains do strange things..
This often becomes a major variable.
“Now, try hunting alone..”
“yes?”
“Why are you so surprised??”
Rather, Dahyun Jeong gave me an expression that I didn’t understand. The monster has sensed us and is approaching us, but it looks lax. This is a deduction.
“What are you doing, you need to be alert quickly..”
“yes!”
“Then hit it with all your might. Don't let your guard down. Otherwise you'll die.”
I left some warm advice and then stepped back..
Where should I check out my skills?.
* * *
“30dot.”
“…….”
Jeong Da-hyeon lowered her head at Choi Jun-ho's sentence..
After a fierce battle, the monster was hunted. However, the process was so tedious that even I couldn't give it a generous grade..
“Monsters are less rational than humans, but more instinctive. But it's not just that they're less intelligent, they're incapable of maneuvering in the battle for their lives..”
“yes.”
Dahyun Jeong almost died three times while dealing with a level 6 harmful monster. He managed to avoid it by using his intuition, but if the monster's claws had been a little longer or his movements had been smooth, he would have been fatally injured..
But this experience became my bones and flesh. Choi Jun-ho's advice, which felt vague, became clear to me as I went through this hunt..
So I was rather grateful for the kind words..
“Next is the 7th level of harm. Tell me if you're having a hard time.”
“I'll try it.”
“That's how Jeong Da-hyun is. I'm resting for now.”
Jeong Da-hyeon looked at Choi Jun-ho turning around and made a puzzled expression..
“Where are you going?”
“While I'm here, I'm trying to relax..”
Are you really going to go hunting??
“I'm waiting for you.”
As if what he said was true, Choi Jun-ho walked away at a fast pace and soon disappeared..
It was about an hour later..
Dahyun Jeong saw several golden thunderbolts striking a mountain in the distance..
Rumble! Pretzel Gwang! Boom!
It was a series of shocks, as if the heavens and earth were turning upside down..
Jeong Da-hyun looked at the scene as if fascinated..
“…This is monster hunting.”
I was able to understand why Lee Se-hee said that the flower of hunting is monster hunting, not villain hunting..
The scale was different. The battle with the villain is person-to-person, but the monsters themselves are of different species..
1The roar that continued for over an hour suddenly quieted down. And when more than an hour had passed, Choi Jun-ho's appearance began to fade into view..
But I wasn't alone.
“I regained some stamina.?”
“yes. I'm OK. But my brother…….”
Choi Jun-ho's two-handed lizard was brought in. One was about 3m long and the other was a whopping 10m long..
“This one is a cub, and this one is a level 8 monster. He was a bit annoying with his poison..”
And then he threw it in front without a big deal..
“Since it was a male, I thought there was a female nearby, so I waited, but she didn't come..”
Choi Jun-ho regains his appetite with regret.
“…….”
When hunting monsters, you have to annihilate a whole family..
Well, if I survive and seek revenge, it will be a pain in the ass..
It might be best to dry the seeds while you can..
Jeong Da-hyun, who achieved enlightenment, nodded and said.
“If you had given hope of saving the baby instead of killing it, wouldn't it have appeared??”
Because maternal instinct can take precedence over survival instinct..
Choi Jun-ho lifted his head at those words. Dahyun Jeong first apologized because she thought she had gone too far ahead..
“Are we going too far? sorry.”
“no.”
Choi Jun-ho shook his head resolutely and said with an expression of admiration..
“…you have talent.”
