The crazy villain regains his sanity - Episode 179
179fury
After anchoring the yacht, the person who greeted me was Abdul Arque, the commander of the Brunei Royal Guard and the only superman..
“Welcome to Brunei, brother..”
“I didn't know I'd see it this early.”
“I expected something like this to happen. Although I didn't know it would happen in a neighboring country. I feel fortunate to be able to help you..”
“We would like to thank Brunei for its assistance..”
I guess Abdul Arche knew that seeing me again couldn't mean anything good..
Victor Carvalho's information about Brunei was also very helpful this time..
He seemed strangely friendly toward me, and I was curious as to the reason..
It doesn't look like he has any other thoughts. If you listen to the story, your true feelings will become clear..
Let's take care of things first.
“I'm planning to go to East Timor right away..”
“As promised, the plane was prepared. However, since it is late, how about taking a day off today and leaving tomorrow??”
“hmm.”
“I have information to give to you, brother, so you may receive favor..”
Abdul Arqueh said he had more information about East Timor and a gift for me..
Next to me, Yang Joo-hyuk was looking at me with earnest eyes. Well, unlike me who tries to get things done quickly, he is quite tired..
There's no need to refuse a gift..
“All right.”
“Then I will take you there..”
Yang Joo-hyuk and I moved to a nearby mansion under the guidance of Abdul Arche..
Yang Joo-hyuk, exhausted from a fairly long voyage, went to rest, and I ended up having a conversation with Abdul Arqueh..
“First of all, the reason I expressed concern about the situation in East Timor is because it is related to the situation in my home country..”
“please speak.”
Abdul Arqueh said Brunei and Timor-Leste are working closely together to avoid being swayed by larger countries as small countries in Southeast Asia..
Brunei was tied to Malaysia and East Timor was tied to Indonesia..
Fortunately, in Malaysia, Rashid, a superman, is a well-informed person, so compromise is possible at an appropriate level, but this is not the case in Indonesia and Timor-Leste..
In particular, the tension was high because Victor Carvalho had a record of killing several Indonesian awakeners in the past..
It could be seen as Indonesia's greed, but East Timor said it was not enough to justify it..
“Carvalho is a very greedy person..”
“For superhumans, greed is a positive thing..”
“The problem is about greed that goes beyond one's own subject..”
Victor Carvalho, who recently felt his limitations, showed restraint and then started being greedy again..
Abdul Arqueh cited his meeting with me as the reason..
Victor Carvalho, who met me first, is said to have experienced short-term results and used them to strengthen his power..
“Carvalho must have thought that the superhuman would not be able to come this far..”
“I was planning on going from the beginning..”
“Normal people wouldn't think that way..”
“That's strange. I am willing to go, but why do they think as they please??”
“I think the same way.”
Abdul Arque says that there was a reason why Victor Carvalho behaved like this..
“I think it's league or party related.”
“Aside from the league, the party?”
“There is talk of them breaking their long-standing policy of being closed and seeking partners locally. Since the offer came to me, the offer must have gone to Victor as well..”
“I guess you received it..”
“This is the most likely story for now..”
In the end, it is at the level of a local partner. But I thought that if you were a superhuman on the outskirts, you might be attracted to it..
Not knowing that the price was his own life.
You can get more detailed information when you go to East Timor..
That's all there is to know about Victor Carvalho..
I moved on to the next content.
“So what does Brunei benefit from this time??”
“We want East Timor to become a healthy country. It would be great if Viktor came to his senses, but if that doesn't happen, I'll try to pursue the relationship in a different direction..”
The President of East Timor has been working hard to improve the country's constitution for a long time, and it was said that this improvement was necessary not only for Victor Carvalho but for him as well..
He is a very trustworthy person. Since I stand at the opposite end of the spectrum from Victor Carvalho, I will often meet him..
Somehow it felt like it was commissioned from Brunei, but I guess it doesn't matter..
“All right.”
Because everyone has their own interests..
I decided not to worry too much about what Brunei would gain by getting rid of Victor Carvalho..
They just get rid of the ones who broke the contract..
“I have no intention of sitting still and taking profits..”
“Just consider yourself lucky.”
“no. From a profit perspective, it is better to be sure of anything..”
“That means?”
“The home country is very interested in the brotherly order that will be established in the future..”
Abdul Arqueh said with confidence that a new order would be reorganized around me..
I am the new order?
“The brothers' presence is already shaking up the existing order. What to do with it is up to the brother's judgment. We look forward to your positive decision..”
* * *
“Well, I'll see you again when I'm done..”
After finishing his business, Abdul Arqueh left the place. Brunei's intentions were clear. The goal is to secure a position early in the newly established order and enjoy maximum benefits. Quick judgment and ability to act.
than that.
I was bothered by the 'Legend of Malacca' that came up only briefly among the things Abdul Arche talked about..
This legendary being, who is said to never go against one's will, is said to be feared by all Southeast Asian countries, and something came to mind in the attitude Yongyong showed before coming here and the fact that his 'friend's' pet was not far away..
I asked Yongyong, who was wandering next to me..
“Does the friend you mentioned live around here??”
[uh? how.]
“If it's the legend they're talking about, it's one of two things. Monster or divine beast. In either case, Shinsoo seems more likely..”
[…that's right.]
Yongyong rolled his eyes and then admitted. It seemed like he was having a hard time accepting it, but judging by what I had seen so far, I could see that he wasn't happy about me and my 'friend' meeting up..
“I've come this far, should I meet you??”
[There's no need to do that. Wouldn’t it be better to get things done first??]
“Why are you trying to change your mind??”
[That's not it, that's it! He has a very nasty personality. Rather, you will get caught up in conflict. You just get tired.]
That's what I kept saying. But since I came this far, I thought it would be a good idea to meet him. Since the Shinsu I've seen so far is Yongyong, it seemed good to specify what kind of existence the Shinsu is..
“If you still want to see it?”
[I really want to fight?]
“we're going to talk.”
[believe me?]
What if I don’t believe it??
The more Yongyong showed off his suspicious behavior, the more confident I became..
“Go nearby and tell them you want to meet them..”
[…….]
“I saw that guy anyway, so it won’t be okay.?”
[okay.]
Yongyong looked reluctant, but agreed. Finally, we will see the divine beast that used monsters as pets..
Yongyong left to call a friend, and Yang Joo-hyuk and I headed to East Timor early the next morning..
Yachts are good, but airplanes are still the best for transportation..
Avoiding the realm of flying monsters, I circled around and arrived in East Timor..
There, I met a man in his early 40s who was a local resident and served as a humint..
“My name is Lee Woo-min..”
He identified himself as a deputy director belonging to the overseas part of the National Intelligence Service of the Republic of Korea..
There was an informant in East Timor as well, and I thought it was fascinating..
“Currently, Victor Carvalho is working with the Prime Minister to put pressure on the President..”
“I guess the prime minister wasn't a scarecrow..”
“yes. Although the prime minister appears to be acting under pressure, internally, it is believed that he is in collusion with Victor Carvalho..”
At the same time, what Lee Woo-min presented was a diagram of the relationship between Victor Carvalho and the Prime Minister of East Timor..
Although they are not related by blood, it is said that the uncle of Victor Carvalho's old friend's wife is the current prime minister..
Isn’t that someone else??
Yang Joo-hyuk also seemed to have the same thoughts and said with an absurd expression..
“Isn’t that enough??”
“Victor Carvalho is also aiming for that. So the Prime Minister is strategically trying to seize power from the National Assembly by taking the appearance of being dragged in..”
And it was said that Victor Carvalho's goal was to force the current president to resign and install a person who suits his taste and take over all of the country's power..
There's a league or party involved here.?
I guess the National Intelligence Service didn't even notice..
Or maybe Abdul Arqueh's assumptions were excessive..
First, I decided to put my thoughts aside and listen to the information I had gathered locally..
“Who is the President of East Timor??”
“He's a pretty decent character. If you have to compare, you look a lot like the current president..”
“Then he must be a good person..”
“…….”
Lee Woo-min looked at me with a puzzled look for a moment and then explained about Americou, the president of East Timor..
It is said that he was an awakened person who armed himself and started a movement to arrest villains at a time when the line between villains and awakened people was ambiguous..
He is a man with a great attitude..
They declared that education was the best in East Timor, which has a small population, and set up a training system with the goal of turning all citizens into awakened people..
It is said that they are following various policies by benchmarking Korea, which has recently been on the most successful path, and the approval rating is high as the desired results are being achieved..
If you just listen to the story, he seems like a nice person..
“How does the National Intelligence Service judge it??”
“Since President Américo is friendly to his country, he believes it is better to maintain the current relationship..”
“okay.”
“Can I ask what you think??”
Lee Woo-min asked carefully. When I looked at him, he said with a puzzled expression..
“Director Myeong-guk Cheon told me to check before taking action, so I apologize if I was rude..”
“If it's an instruction, I can't help it..”
Anyway, you should understand Cheon Myeong-guk's fuss..
Who wouldn't think that I'm a person who gets into trouble all the time?.
I confessed that I had finished organizing my thoughts..
“I think it would be easy to end the situation by breaking the necks of the Prime Minister and Viktor, but I was wondering if the President would have anything to do with it as well..”
“You mean President Americo? Probably not.”
Lee Woo-min denied it, but I thought it wouldn’t be a bad idea to check..
These guys called villains do a lot of things that are beyond imagination..
“You're probably in a desperate situation anyway, so let's talk about it and make a decision..”
“…All right.”
* * *
The security of East Timor's presidential palace was quite strict, but it was so lax that it would not be considered a place to protect the president of a country..
In fact, it felt more difficult to infiltrate the residence of Chairman Lee Young-moon of Shinsung Group..
But the guys standing guard felt more like they were watching the president rather than protecting him..
They say we don't get along, but it seems to be true..
When I entered the room, a man who appeared to be in his late 50s was asleep. He was East Timor's President Americou..
It was time to get closer to wake him up with the intention of having a conversation..
Americu, who was thought to be asleep, opened his eyes and reflexively approached him and stabbed him with a dagger..
He said he was the president and the surprise attack was excellent..
Quad Deuk!
“Ugh!”
I reflexively grabbed my wrist and broke it. If you woke up, you could just talk quietly. Why are you rushing in and causing injury, tsk tsk?.
The dagger taken from the president's hand was made from a hunter-killer..
They even have dangerous items..
When I didn't use my hands any more, Ameriku stepped back and took a guard stance..
“Is this the person who came to kill me??”
“speak english.”
“Are you here to kill me? Did Carvalho send it??”
“no.”
I shook my head and sat down on the guest chair. When she offered a seat across from her, Ame Riku hesitantly approached her, holding her wrist. Then, perhaps as he got used to the darkness, he recognized my face and made a shocked expression..
“head breaker?”
“you're right.”
“How did you get here…….”
“Before that, please give me your hand..”
I snatched Americu's broken wrist and poured some healing potion on it..
“Umm.”
While he let out a low moan from the recovering pain, his gaze was fixed on me..
Certainly, looking at Ameriku's reaction, I thought that even Victor Carvalho had no idea that I would come this far..
So you're doing something to die for..
“I heard that Victor Carvalho is doing something stupid. I would like to hear your opinion, Mr. President..”
“They said if you abuse your power, the grim reaper will come. Was that true?.”
Ameriku muttered as if sighing and explained the current situation in East Timor..
It all started with Victor Carvalho's change of heart. Although he was portrayed as the main culprit, it was revealed that the prime minister also played a significant role..
After listening to everything, I came to a simple conclusion..
“All that matters is that Victor Carvalho and the Prime Minister disappear..”
“…but.”
“Then let's deal with the two..”
“Now, wait a minute!”
When I tried to get up, Ameriku caught me..
“Prime Minister, can you leave it in my hands??”
“Isn't it annoying??”
“Politicians have to make political decisions. Please leave it to me.”
“All right. And if Victor Carvalho dies, there will be no superman in East Timor..”
“A guy like that would be better off disappearing. Rather, if he disappears, he will be able to unite more tightly and rise to a higher level..”
If you have this level of determination, you will be able to handle it well..
I also have no hesitation about killing him..
“All right. Let's process it and come back..”
I headed to where Victor Carvalho's residence is..
* * *
Victor Carvalho smiled as he thought about the opportunity that had come his way..
“You can't miss this opportunity.”
Southeast Asia, where East Timor, a small country, was called the frontier of the world's frontiers..
Although he reigned like a king in East Timor, he never forgot the gazes directed at him every time he went abroad..
I promised myself that I would show my true worth at any time, but it wasn't easy to develop my skills..
So when I was half giving up, an opportunity arose..
Choi Jun-ho, famous as a head breaker, rebelled against the existing order and started to 'look' at the skills of superhumans..
Victor Carvalho, who longed for power, did not miss the opportunity. And there he saw a heavenly being outside the sky..
It was overwhelming skill. At the same time, I didn't understand.
Why do you do good things for others with that skill??
Although the contract was signed in advance, Victor Carvalho was not worried..
Because I didn't think I would come all the way here to handle something that had no benefit..
“Do you think anyone would be scared by a piece of paper like that? Hehehe!”
It will be remembered as a miserable failure from an inexperienced kid..
Above all, the proposal of the 'party' that made him take action was attractive..
“They might think I'm a scarecrow, but times have changed. If you have the strength, you can achieve everything.”
It was a time when skill decided everything..
Isn’t Choi Jun-ho also receiving praise for his skills alone, even when he rebels against the order of the world established by the party?.
When you have the power, there is nothing you can't do..
First of all, it is best to have the power to do so..
Victor Carvalho said that training was important, but he also planned to provide everything an awakened person needed. Some of them included illegal ones..
“Americu, it would have been faster if it weren't for that obnoxious guy..”
In the meantime, Ameriku was a saboteur who interfered at every turn, saying he wanted to get his way..
Before I knew it, getting rid of the annoying Americu had become the most important task..
We chose the Prime Minister as our partner to handle this together. He who has been in politics would be able to deal with the president. You'd think the prime minister would wield himself, but Victor Carvalho is different..
If the number is wrong, just act like Choi Jun-ho. We have entered an era in which those in power are forgiven even if they twist their necks when they catch the corruption of those in power..
It was a precedent and order created by Choi Jun-ho. I'm willing to take it if it's what I need..
There's not much left now.
We will do our best to completely secure East Timor and open the gift..
Victor Carvalho had no doubt that his plan would succeed..
“Is that the end??”
“what?”
Victor Carvalho turned his head to where the voice came from and his heart skipped a beat! he felt the impact of falling.
I don't know how long ago, but Choi Jun-ho was sitting there..
“tell me in detail.”
