The crazy villain regains his sanity - Episode 316
316fury
The date for the presidential inauguration ceremony has been set. And I was invited as a guest of honor at the inauguration ceremony..
People around me say it was an obvious decision, but it wasn't my position to accept it..
I am an invitation to the inauguration ceremony, so not everyone can come. It was a place I couldn't even dream of when I had a hematoma..
After all, I helped create a new president and was invited to the inauguration ceremony. Even when I thought about it, I thought it had grown a lot..
Of course, it's a bit disappointing that I couldn't give a speech in support..
“This is the safest place in the world.”
It was nice to see how much I had changed..
However, my original plan to go alone turned out to be a little different. Cheon Myeong-guk didn't just invite me, he invited our entire family..
Now that I think about it, I don't think I've ever moved around with my family at an official event..
So, I feel like I should move with my family during this event..
When Jin Se-jeong saw me trying to attend in comfortable clothes, she got angry..
“Wear comfortable clothes to be in the spotlight! Only from superhumans! By Superhuman! Let’s go for fashion for superhumans! Annoying, right? Do not worry! I knew you would, so I prepared it for you! All you have to do is wear it and go.!”
It was literally the lion's hooves. I ended up accepting Jin Se-jeong's words and attending the inauguration ceremony wearing my custom-made luxury suit, in the name of having to dress politely at official events..
The effect is... Unfortunately it was certain.
Personally, I don't know much about the suit fit or anything, but looking at the reactions of those around me, I guess it's good. Did Jin Se-jeong say that this suit fit has been trained in practice and cannot be imitated by others?.
Just looking at it, it was just lip service. There are a lot of awakened people other than me, so they all have good suit fits..
When I arrived at the inauguration ceremony site, the first thing I noticed was the tight security net. Because there were so many people invited, the border could not be perfect, so it was designed so that time could be delayed with a human curtain when necessary..
If it were me, I think I would have tackled it head on, but I think it will take some time to get to where the president is..
Well, the moment you gain high-speed flight, that border network becomes meaningless..
[Why are you always focused on killing someone??]
Because it's easier to kill than to protect. Of course, since I came with my family today, I am also in a position to protect myself. Anyone who crosses the border should be subdued by breaking their neck..
[I think killing is better suited than suppressing.…….]
“Junho Choi Superhuman!”
I turned my head and saw Lee Chan-taek of the Avant Garde Guild approaching..
That was the start. Gwang-ho Ryu of the Reaper Guild also came and said hello, Sang-min Han of the Foreign Cooperation Management Bureau and Kuk-cheol Noh, team leader of the National Protection Bureau, also exchanged greetings with figures from the business world, including Shinsung Group..
They are all considered the worst people in Korea. I'm not impressed, but I guess the people around me aren't either..
In particular, my family’s perspective on me has changed..
[The look in their eyes changes?]
My father was already acquainted with influential people and exchanged greetings with them, and my mother seemed excited to mingle with people who could be considered upper class..
No, there are stories about me being popular on TV every day, but haven't you felt it?.
As if she sensed my thoughts, Yunhee intervened..
“I realized how great my troublemaker son was..”
“I'm a troublemaker?”
“So I thought you weren’t a troublemaker? This is amazing.”
Make an exaggeratedly surprised expression.
This is 100% something I did while being conscious of the people around me..
Regardless, Yunhee's brave actions continued..
[You speak well! human brother!]
“My brother doesn't seem to know much, but people around him are treating him like a troublemaker more than you can imagine. There's probably a truckload of people who get sick of just looking at your face..”
[That's right, you speak well. I feel refreshed.]
Things that didn't even communicate with each other were hitting together and pushing me excitedly..
I guess I'll have to set up a separate place sometime soon and talk about each other individually..
After exchanging greetings, the actual inauguration ceremony began..
The first thing that caught my eye was the appearance of President Jeon Han-cheol, now a former president..
He had a smile on his face as he succeeded in extending his administration and achieved countless achievements during his tenure..
They say that you get older when you become president, but compared to 5 years ago, the passage of time definitely seemed to go by..
It must be nice because now I don't have to worry about it anymore..
And as of today, Cheon Myeong-guk, who will become president, has appeared..
When I saw Cheon Myeong-guk, who went from being the head of the Blue House to becoming president, I thought it was strange that it was a human job..
In the past, when I became a hematoma and went crazy, he was an outstanding awakener and strategist, but now he has become the president of a country. I think I'm probably the person whose fate changed most dramatically after I came back to my senses..
Now that he is president, he seems like a different person. He says the place makes the man..
“I don't know what people do.”
It's the same for me right now.
That must be the fun of life.
Before the official inauguration speech, Cheon Myeong-guk turned his head and made eye contact with me. Many emotions were swirling in his eyes, and I cheered him on, thinking he could do well. He nodded slightly and opened his mouth..
The contents were full of dreams and hopes..
It was full of good stories as it was an opportunity to give hope to the voters who elected them and to the people..
It sounded obvious to my ears, but seeing as other people were impressed, it must be a good story..
“And finally, there is a treasure that our Republic of Korea cannot replace with anything else..”
After saying that and closing his mouth for a moment, Cheon Myeong-guk turns his head slightly and looks at me..
Could it be that the treasure is me??
[I think that's right?]
“We will do our best to create a better Republic of Korea than yesterday through strong cooperation here with Choi Jun-ho..”
Remarks from the President on Day 1 of the Presidential Inauguration Ceremony.
What it meant was simple.
It meant that there were that many voters who chose Cheon Myeong-guk because of my presence..
At first, many people thought I was a villain, but that was just based on my appearance. As people had time to understand that my character was like that, and as a fan base was formed by Jin Se-jeong, the story changed drastically..
What is decisive here is the actual benefit delivered to the people due to my presence..
No matter the method of catching them, the number of villains has decreased due to my ruthless sweep, and the crime rate has plummeted. As I have almost wiped out the monsters, it has become noticeably safer from the threat of the monsters..
A representative example was that he was no longer afraid even when a level 8 harmful monster appeared..
Sehee Lee told me. The people have given me a great deal of latitude. If I put my mind to it, I'll tolerate anything I do..
These practical benefits for the people gave me an opportunity to overlook the minor inconveniences and support Cheon Myung-guk, with whom I had a close relationship..
Cheon Myeong-guk mentioned me at the inauguration ceremony to repay the voters' sentiments..
Looking at it this way, I think Cheon Myeong-guk has also become a politician..
With that, the inauguration ceremony came to an end..
Yongyong looked satisfied..
[Anyway, it was nice because it was new. There are quite a few things to see at human events too..]
“It's good.”
[how were you?]
“me? not really.”
Clearly, the fact that I came to the inauguration ceremony was an achievement not as a villain, but as a superhuman belonging to the Republic of Korea..
I am no longer a villain, and this is a meaningful time to check what I have built up as a superhuman..
That's it..
[Why do you think so??]
“You will know from watching from the side that this process of building up is not easy..”
[It didn't look difficult, but I saw it took a long time..]
“It took years. So how long will it take to destroy all of this??”
[Uh, um. It'll be an instant?]
“That's why it's not that good.”
It takes a long time to build up good things, but erasing everything is an instant..
At best, I came back to my senses and lived a peaceful life, but there were a lot of things I didn't like..
[Why are you worried??]
“I don't like the fact that it can be broken at any time if some crazy person other than me shows up..”
[…….]
“Because the world is big and there are a lot of crazy people.”
[Anyway, is it only you who can do it?.]
“I don't know that either.”
[There's no one worse than you.]
I simply ignored Yongyong’s grumbling words..
* * *
The inauguration ceremony ended successfully, leaving many favorable reviews..
When former President Jeon Han-cheol took office, the scale of the inauguration ceremony had to be scaled down due to concerns about survival due to an invasion by monsters, but this inauguration ceremony served as an opportunity to inform the world of the situation in the Republic of Korea, which has improved to the point where it can be decorated with extravagance..
In addition, there were people from all over the world who were surprised to see the stable situation in Korea, which greatly stimulated the spirit of gukbong..
The new president's schedule is busy..
In particular, since South Korea had reached the level of being ranked among the top five in the world on its own, there were many people who wanted to see a new president of a powerful country..
In order, starting with the United States, followed by Japan..
Compared to the situation until then, when China's importance was rising, it was an unprecedented change. A divided China proved not to be a significant threat, meaning it was pushed back on the list of priorities..
Even though such intentions were explicitly conveyed, Chinese figures could not even express their dissatisfaction..
Rather, he politely asked Cheon Myeong-guk for help..
“We need your strength for peace. Please.”
“I know how you feel. We will do what we can.”
“thank you.”
On the Northern side, Li Zhenhuo, who could be said to be the de facto second-in-command, came and asked for mediation..
It was an action that could hardly be seen as behavior from the Chinese side, which is famous for its stiff neck..
[How can I stretch myself when you are there? Then my neck would spin.]
There are surprisingly many people with that kind of spirit, Yongyong, haven’t you seen quite a few?.
[Yes, I saw it. I heard everyone died from you.]
There's a difference between being spirited and being a killer. Isn’t that what happens in the world?.
[If everything ends, there will be no one left alive..]
Let's say so.
I was also invited to this event..
The common thought was that the country needed deterrence for the truce between the Northern and Southern armies..
Actually, I didn't think much of it..
“Is there anything else you want from the North??”
“doesn't exist.”
“Those words are…….”
The Northern Army was a new regime, and suffered great damage when the Heavenly Demon Armor appeared. Moreover, the internal situation is not good. You probably won't have time to look at your surroundings for the time being..
But the South is different.
“I have something to tell you when I talk to you..”
“…….”
“Why are you doing that??”
There was deep anxiety in Cheon Myeong-guk's eyes as he looked at me..
“Even though I became president, my heart remains the same as it was then. If you're going to surprise me, please let me know first..”
“That shouldn't be that surprising. Let’s talk when guests come..”
In my opinion, it wasn't that big of a deal, so I didn't think there was any need to say it twice..
Cheon Myeong-guk looked like he wanted to ask more, but soon gave up and called in someone from the Confederate army..
“Nice to meet you.”
Recently, newly inaugurated Prime Minister Li Junming politely greeted me. He is one of the representative pro-friendly figures, and was interpreted as having expressed his intention to become closer to us by becoming prime minister before this visit..
I'm not interested in such complicated political investigations. I just need to get what I want to get..
I don't know if the other person will give it or not..
Meanwhile, Chen Ming-guo and Li Junming exchanged warm greetings..
What the Confederate army also brought up was, of course, the content about the truce. He said he wanted to strengthen relations with us even though we are surrounded by enemies on all sides, and that he would like to increase exchanges..
This is not something that Cheon Myung-guk would refuse. As reconstruction projects are needed due to the ongoing war, it is, to put it bluntly, a bonanza for our closest neighboring country..
“That's what we hope too. i look forward to.”
“Our interests are aligned..”
“What's left is…….”
As Cheon Myeong-guk glances at me, Li Junming also looks at me..
It's my turn to step up..
“If the Confederate army listens to just one thing, we will cooperate..”
“Tell me.”
I said it bluntly.
“Cheonma armor production facility. I want that.”
“…….”
There was a heavy silence in the hall..
Cheon Myeong-guk closed his eyes tightly..
It's not a very difficult request, so I don't know why they're doing that..
Li Junming took off his hands with a white face..
“Oh, I don't know what you're talking about..”
“I know everything.”
“That has nothing to do with us..”
“is it real?”
“That's right.”
Is he really a politician?.
At first he was confused, but now he was managing his expression perfectly..
This makes the conversation easier..
“So even if I go to that facility and destroy it, I have nothing to do with it..”
“Well, that's…….”
“I just need to make one thing clear..”
“…….”
Li Junming’s long silence continued..
