The crazy villain regains his sanity - Episode 238
238fury
The road into the Blue House.
The streets, which had been bustling with reporters just a moment ago, were deserted. All kinds of sculptures and well-maintained roads gave a feeling of being isolated from a world full of monsters and villains..
“Korea seems like a really cool place. There are fewer monsters and fewer villains..”
The saint was standing next to me and talking to me in a friendly way, as if asking if she had seen each other before..
Normally, I would have ignored whatever the foreign customer was saying, but since they spoke in Korean, it was difficult to just ignore them..
“When did you learn Korean??”
“If you're a saint, this is basic..”
“Anyone can become a saint.”
“sure. Starting with all kinds of liberal arts and cultural education, you must master dozens of foreign languages. Only after completing the course are you qualified to become a saint..”
“Is being a saint worth it??”
“Looks like there isn't a head breaker at first glance.?”
“I'm asking because I don't know..”
[This guy isn't average either..]
Yongyong agreed with what he said. It felt like dealing with a slick businessman who rarely revealed his true feelings..
At that time, I saw the saintess glancing in this direction. But the feeling was quite different..
[uh?]
Have you seen Yongyong just now? But seeing as he moves his gaze casually, it doesn't seem like it..
“Do saints really appear suddenly??”
“no.”
“then?”
“I guess you had a lot of questions for me? Well, I'm naturally attracted to women who have a lot of secrets..”
And then he smiles, pretending to be alluring, but instead of being attracted to me, I want to drag him away..
[He has no idea he could die right now.!]
I don't even think about doing that. Anyway, since I am a guest who came all the way here and I came with Franz, there is no reason to treat him as an enemy..
Anyway, after exchanging a few words, we went inside and the president welcomed Franz and the saint..
Well, I know that the Vatican has existed since ancient times and played a central role in Europe when dealing with monsters, but I felt that the treatment was extreme..
The saint won the president's favor in natural Korean, as if such treatment was natural, and then handed him a personal letter from the pope..
The president accepted it with a smile and looked at Franz and the saint alternately before speaking..
“Okay, may I ask what brought you two all this way??”
“The reason we came here is because we wanted to ask the Korean government for something..”
“Hehe, if you had anything to ask for, you could have done so there. I'm already worried because it seems like you're about to ask for something difficult..”
The president was extremely stern and set up a smoke screen in advance..
“Even if it is a little difficult, I think it will be easily resolved if the President works hard..”
The saint passed it off without notice..
Again, the saint's resourcefulness seemed considerable..
I feel like I'm looking at a businessman rather than a religious person.?
The president was smiling, but I felt like he was caught off guard..
“If the saint says so, it must be so..”
“Thank you for your understanding. As expected, the analysis that the Republic of Korea's progress was due to the President's ability was correct..”
“Hehe, thank you for your words..”
“I'm just telling you what I think..”
“…….”
The saintess was handling the president so skillfully that I, who was watching quietly, wondered if she was using a spiritual gift. She's kind of resourceful so she can bake and boil it like that.?
[It's not normal.]
Even Yongyong, who has seen a lot about the human world, would say the same thing..
But that only worked at the personnel stage, and once we got into the main topic, it started to get tense..
“What we want is information about the Plus Plus level Heavenly Demon Armor that Head Breaker, a superhuman from South Korea, recently hunted..”
“That has already been revealed sufficiently..”
“Yes, but after my own research, I thought there might be more information about plus-plus level monsters, so I came here to ask for it..”
The saint’s smile deepened..
I was wondering if the president was going to let things go like this, but what he said was unexpected..
“It's impossible.”
“yes?”
“The reason is that the right to hunt belongs entirely to Choi Jun-ho..”
The saint's smile cracked, and her eyes turned to me..
Actually, I don't have any thoughts..
“Could you please give me some information about Headbreaker and Heavenly Demon Armor??”
“why me?”
“It is clear that monsters like the Heavenly Demon Armor will threaten humanity in the future.…….”
“Wouldn’t it be enough if that information was already officially announced? Any other information would be related to my personal life..”
“…….”
The saint’s mouth closed. She was talking excitedly, but it was best to keep her mouth shut..
Franz just looks at me with a stern expression..
There's something.
Of course, I had no intention of matching the other person's rhythm..
“It can be seen that the two-horned monster is exactly as it was released in Korea. If you want to know more than that, tell me your honest thoughts..”
Because I am still immature, I cannot clearly distinguish between truth and lies through intuition..
But I'm allergic to bullshit, so I can judge by that. If you see your hand trying to move out, most of it is bullshit. If you were to quantify the hit rate, wouldn’t it be 99.9%?.
[0.1%I don't think about the innocent victims of?]
He's the one who made me feel bad anyway, so you can think of him as getting rid of the regret. There is more chance of being bothered later than the chance of making a wrong decision..
[and! You really are an amazing person. But I'm curious too.]
Everyone's eyes were focused on the saint. At that time, Franz, who had remained silent until now, clicked his tongue and intervened..
“So didn't I tell you? Headbreaker is not an easy opponent to deal with..”
“That's right.”
The saint took a deep breath, discarded the lightness she had felt a moment ago and politely asked me:.
“There are signs that plus-plus level monsters will appear in Europe. Our judgment is that we cannot deal with them with all our might right now. Could you please help me?.”
“Please explain what the signs are..”
I was curious as to what you were looking at to make that decision..
* * *
The Heavenly Demon Armor that I faced was a monster artificially created by the Chinese government. So, I don't think it's easy for it to occur artificially, but according to the saint's words, it is quite possible for two-horned monsters to occur naturally..
The reason was as follows.
First, the monster ecosystem is undergoing continuous change due to the rise in human power. Monsters that adapted to this change gained stronger power than before..
Second, it was a continuous battle. While dealing with monsters and humans in a harsh environment, the monsters began to learn various fighting methods..
Lastly, it is about learning how to handle human force. Although it is at a primitive level, monsters with a much stronger body and force have become stronger through this primitive form of force training..
“As the battle continued, not only humans became stronger. As humans become stronger, monsters also become stronger. And its combat ability improves in competition with other monsters. As the process of restoring areas necessary for survival is repeated, the resistance of monsters becomes stronger..”
“It is said that the sign hints at the appearance of a two-horned monster.?”
“It was just a suspicion phase. It was a prophecy that gave confidence here..”
The President and Cheon Myung-guk were shocked at the word prophecy. Looks like there's something over there.
“This is not a prophecy to be ignored. That prophecy has saved us from danger many times..”
Franz also added his words. So, my curiosity was fueled even more..
I asked the saint.
“Who gives that prophecy??”
“that…….”
There was a lot of noise about Cheongsanyusu a little while ago, but now it's quiet. I became curious as to who the being pretending to be the god who handed down the prophecy was..
Is it really God??
Oh, by the way, I am not an atheist. There would be nothing more strange than denying the existence of God after going crazy and returning to the past..
However, there are questions about whether that God is truly omnipotent and omnipotent, or whether he is as noble as human imagination..
“If it's difficult to answer, you don't have to. But the conversation will only progress if we can open up to each other..”
“…….”
“It doesn’t have to be today. Take your time and think about it.”
“That's all for today. There will be many opportunities to talk in the future..”
Everyone nodded to the president's words..
After the saint's group returned, I went out to the Blue House yard and talked to Yongyong..
“What does it look like when you see it??”
[The most likely one is Shinsu, but I can't be sure..]
“why?”
[Shinsoo is just one of many options. If we have evolved into a different form, I don't think it would be strange if a transcendent being different from us appears..]
“So does that mean God could exist?.”
[It cannot be ruled out. But the chances are low.]
Since Yongyong said that, I couldn't tell which was true and which was false. He could be a monster pretending to be a Shinsu, or he could be a being more transcendent than a Shinsu..
Or maybe it's something else that wants to play god.
“I wonder what it means to be a god and give a prophecy rather than to say that two-horned monsters occur naturally..”
[…….]
Yongyong did not respond to my mutterings..
* * *
After completing the first day's schedule and checking in at a hotel near the Blue House, Franz and the saint moved separately to evaluate what happened today..
“It's difficult.”
“Didn't you say from the beginning that you weren't an opponent for a trick? This is also a lot of growth..”
“Is it growth??”
“At least I didn't use my hands first.”
“Is it that much??”
“He doesn't just look good, he's a very fierce guy..”
During one visit, Franz listed the hardships Choi Jun-ho experienced..
The saintess who was listening with interest nodded her head..
“I see. I understand after dealing with it. Headbreaker is a bomb that you never know when it will explode. If I crossed the line just a little bit, my head would be broken right away..”
“Knowing that, I take risks.?”
“I was curious what kind of man he was..”
“So what do you think??”
“great. I understand why they are called the best in the world, and why they have made it impossible for that powerful league to even come to East Asia. I became more certain after coming here. I need the power of a head breaker.”
The saint's blue eyes sparkled like jewels and then suddenly wavered. Blinking became more frequent as the pupils constricted..
Franz looked at that and shook his head..
“I know I need his power, but it was premature to reveal the existence of the prophecy..”
“It was going to be revealed anyway. Then I think it's right to make a deal with this..”
“Didn't you fail in the end?.”
“But I let Headbreaker know that we don't lie. If we build trust like this, wouldn’t we be able to exchange useful information??”
“That guy? Well, okay.”
Choi Jun-ho is extremely self-centered and acts as he pleases..
No matter how beautiful a saintly woman is or how superior her social status may be, I am not the type of person to be swayed by that..
“Is it worth it? Even if you betray God's will?”
“Did you know?”
“I keep frowning, but I can't do that unless I want to create wrinkles on purpose. Taking care of one's beauty is said to be competitive, so?”
“Even if you can fool everyone else, you won't be able to fool Grandpa..”
“I have been watching you since I was at the Vatican. Even if you fool the Pope, you can’t fool me.”
The saint sighed at Franz’s point. A dark shadow that had never been seen before appeared on her face..
No, it must have been something you tried hard to hide until now..
“My god tells me not to compromise with the headbreaker. They tell you to kill them by any means necessary..”
“Even God?”
Franz does not know whether the being called God is really God. However, his near-omnipotence ability was real. With his presence, he was able to overcome many crises and prepare for the coming disaster..
God is very interested in the human world, but does not care about humans..
That was a rule that never changed..
Even a god like that tells me to kill Choi Jun-ho..
I felt that something huge was happening..
The saint smiled..
“are you okay. I whispered to him several times, but I ignored them all..”
“Is that okay??”
“There will definitely be a penalty. But I didn’t come into this world to be swayed by God’s will. I believe that building friendships with headbreakers rather than antagonizing them can produce more constructive results..”
He is a person who hunts monsters of the Plus Plus stage alone. The saint was curious about Choi Jun-ho's abnormal strength, a strength that made even God tremble with anxiety..
Franz also decided that it was wrong to be hostile to Choi Jun-ho and supported the saint..
“I hope you are right. I'll be there to help you too.”
“thank you. Then continue like this... ah! iced coffee!”
The brightly smiling saint's eyes turned red and blood began to flow..
Franz helped the startled and staggering saint..
“Alessia!”
“are you okay. It's just the price you pay for not listening to God. Since I offended the person serving me, I have to endure this much..”
“Are you okay??”
“yes I'm okay. You will understand me later..”
Even while shedding bloody tears, the saint smiled brightly as if to reassure Franz..
