The crazy villain regains his mind - Episode 58

58fury

The death of Chinese superman Zhang Zedong. And more than half of the hunters and students died in droves..

Even though he only took action to rush to the Prime Minister's shout, there was no mercy in Choi Jun-ho's hands. In the blink of an eye, all those who attacked were killed and the sparring hall was stained with blood..

Berserker curled the corners of his mouth as he looked at the gruesome sight of blood and flesh rolling around..

“Kkeukkeuk, good, good. That's what I wanted.”

“······.”

Dahyun Jeong tried to maintain a calm expression, but her eyes were trembling. The kind of hand Choi Jun-ho sometimes showed was not easily accepted..

Although he is a hunter who advocates justice, his hands are not like those of a hunter. Now it's funny to argue about who is righteous and who is evil, but sometimes I feel like I live in a different world from my own..

Is he narrow-minded or has Choi Jun-ho gone too far? The answer will not come easily. But you have to accept it because you decided to accept it..

“That is the world that Junho Choi and I see. It might come to you.”

“no.”

Dahyun Jeong denied it with a firm voice..

“Zhang Zedong, the hunters, and the students also committed suicide. If he felt the gap in skill, he should have surrendered and asked for mercy. If you don't know your subject, you will die..”

“Doesn’t that mean it’s spicy soup?.”

“I thought I couldn't survive in this world without that mindset..”

“right. Hypocrites put layers of pretty wrapping paper around it, but that's the essence. The strong live and the weak die. Neither your background nor the connections around you will protect you at the crucial moment..”

Dahyun Jeong answered by nodding her head..

It's a world where you die if you don't have skills. This is especially true because the feelings between nations are not only influenced by individual bad feelings, but also by nation-to-nation feelings..

In that respect, the Chinese premier made the worst choice. In a moment of judgment, not only the hunters who came with him but also many of the students who were responsible for the future died. Even my political life. And can students who are safe also be mentally safe?.

It would be a lie to say that there was no hurt after seeing such a cruel scene..

“You came.”

It was Berserker's one word that broke Jeong Da-hyun out of his thoughts. Choi Jun-ho was coming this way..

It was leisurely, as if I had gone for a walk. Just a little while ago, I was wondering if it was right to kill so many people..

“Why did you come this way?.”

“He also tried to kill the prime minister, but was kicked out. If you kill that thing, there's no turning back. But can this be reversed? Isn’t it already irreversible?.”

“You think you can turn it around.”

“They say I'll be purged when I return anyway, but it's better to end it myself..”

I clicked my tongue lightly and everything I said was bloody..

“What were you talking about?.”

“It's not a big deal, it's about life. You killed a superman and you look like nothing happened..”

“Because it really wasn't a big deal.”

If everyone around me heard this, wouldn't everyone around me turn upside down?.

The more I saw Choi Jun-ho's calm appearance even after killing Jiang Zedong, who was recognized in China, the more amazing it was..

Is there really an opponent who can make him struggle?.

In Jeong Da-hyeon's mind, superhumans who were said to be the strongest in existence passed through her mind, but nowhere was she pictured having a hard time dealing with Choi Jun-ho..

“I'm hungry. Let's go get something to eat..”

“Let's leave this disaster behind and have dinner.?”

“What should I do if I want to go? In fact, Director Cheon said he would disappear quickly. If I'm there, you can't talk to them. He's nagging me so much for killing a few people..”

“Heck, you're crazy too.”

“I don't want to hear that from you..”

While chatting calmly, Choi Jun-ho's eyes landed on Jeong Da-hyun..

“shall we go together?”

“I want to go too.”

“Okay, let's go.”

The three left to eat dinner..

* * *

The rice you eat after eating a lot of food is delicious. After eating delicious Cheonggukjang for dinner, Jeong Da-hyun returned to the National Protectorate and Berserker and I were left alone..

Berserker drinks coffee in an elegant manner, not like a crazy person. I remember hearing that dinner was Cheonggukjang (cheonggukjang) and whining that he liked steak. On the topic of being a villain, I don't even know what to eat..

Just by looking at his appearance, he looked like a professor who would belong to some kind of teaching institute. Almaeng is crazy but.

After talking about how they killed Zhang Zedong at the cafe, Berserker suddenly said goodbye when they came out..

“Then I guess I should go back soon..”

“So early?”

“Originally, I was planning to go without notice. No matter how kindly people view me, I am a villain. If their mood changes, they will be the first to be dealt with..”

“You've become a great villain..”

Although he said it sarcastically, Berserker was right. When I was being chased for hematoma, I also extremely hated having my whereabouts revealed to the government..

“head breaker.”

“If you have something to say, say it.”

“There is something I want to ask. What are your skills??”

Berserker's eyes were serious when he looked at me..

I don't know why I'm suddenly losing my skills..

Is it because they killed Zhang Zedong? Berserker isn't the type of guy to be attacked like that anyway. He'll be much more picky and tough.

Anyway, it's my skill. By what criteria should we evaluate it? If we use guerrilla warfare, is it enough to destroy a country?.

“I don't know either.”

“Is it level 9??”

“Well, that's fine. If a method of measuring it is found, I plan to try it..”

“No matter how much you think about it, the difference between level 8 can't be this big. You're most likely level 9.”

“There is nothing more funny than talking to yourself. Let's just go to level 8. That way, guys who don't even know their subject will rush to their deaths..”

For reference, Berserker was one of them..

He survived even after his heart was broken twice..

And to me, level 9 isn't that important. No, I try not to..

While caring about the opinions of others and seeking power in order to receive a little more recognition, a villain named Hematoma was born. From then on, I thought that obsession with shame was a shortcut to losing myself..

I use my hands just enough to not be misunderstood as a villain..

Fortunately, I'm doing well so far..

“If that's the case, I can't help it. I had a good time today.”

“You did a good job as well. I can call you often from now on.”

“It was nice to have a hotel room for the first time in a while. But I refuse to call you often. Because I don’t like being tamed like this.”

“That's up to me, and I just come when called. The talk is small and.”

“I'm sending it to you because I'm afraid it might be lonely, but you're throwing it away. I know you don't have any friends.”

“······.”

I guess this guy doesn't know that sometimes the truth leads to murder..

By the way, he is a friend. Considering that they are of similar age, you could consider Oh Jong-yeop as a friend, but in this life, I had very little interaction with him, so the relationship was ambiguous, and the people I am quite close with are Jung Joo-ho and Cheon Myeong-guk..

They are both older men, but I had accumulated quite a bit of experience in my last life, so it was easy to deal with them because they seemed to be the same age..

And there was a Berserker guy, but I didn't want to call this crazy guy my friend. I think I'll be mistaken for a crazy person if I stay next to him for no reason..

···You make me feel awkward using the word ‘friend’ for no reason..

“Okay, please contact me when the gift opens..”

“······.”

“I mean, it's impossible to kill anyone. When it opens, I want to take a look. hey! hey!”

Berserker, he turned around and quickly walked away, pretending not to hear me..

If someone sees it, they'll think they're eating it..

A quick-witted guy.

* * *

After Zhang Zedong's death, the Chinese delegation canceled all plans and returned to China the next day. This whole process unfolded like lightning..

China, which was trying to obtain Nuri's hunting process and eliminate a new superhuman named Choi Jun-ho, lost a superhuman named Zhang Zedong and suffered a painful loss of active hunters and future resources..

As a result, Korea-China relations will go through a cooling period for a while, but now that trade volume has decreased due to demons, there has been no significant impact on the Republic of Korea..

Rather, as it was China that was making efforts to recover a significant portion of its territory and import even a small amount of surplus of monster by-products, South Korea also took the lead in the field of trade..

The President spoke with Cheon Myeong-guk with a relaxed face, free from the ten-year-old congestion..

“China's position is?”

“There was nothing special. It was a fair sparring, and it was self-defense..”

“They probably had nothing to say because their insides were dark. In the end, it's skill that makes you shut up. very good.”

“Congratulations.”

“Is this something I should celebrate alone? It’s thanks to Director Cheon’s plan. You are my eldest son. ha ha ha!”

From beginning to end, it was Tian Ming-guk who planned to catch Jiang Zedong. Zhang Zedong, who started fights over everything and used his transfer gift to push demons into North Korea, was a thorn in the side of the Republic of Korea, the government, and the president..

Now that he has been eliminated, the number of monsters flocking to North Korea will decrease..

Above all, it was great to see in person the inaction of Choi Jun-ho, which I had only heard about through hearsay..

“I have seen the inaction of superhumans a few times, but Choi Jun-ho's strength was real. It was on a different level from the red snake. What did it look like to you??”

“···I've never seen an awakened person with that much strength..”

“Does that seem like it to you, a former member of the Shinigami Guild? There are other superhumans too.?”

“Choi Jun-ho was outside the standard. The power, speed, and confrontation management were all perfect. And the hand speed was merciless. I didn't know that he would kill them all without a moment's hesitation..”

“hmm. That was amazing.”

The president also nodded his head in agreement..

It was so unobtrusive that it felt unrealistic..

Because I didn't know that Zhang Zedong, who was so arrogant, would run away so ugly that he would turn into a lump of blood and flesh..

“It's important that the knife is our knife..”

“I'm still worried though.”

“If you had anything to worry about, you shouldn't even think about swinging it. Choi Jun-ho is on our side. So don't worry. And, I have a bit of a feel for it. Choi Jun-ho should not be thought of as an ordinary person..”

The President grinned..

“Never try to rein it in. And keep an appropriate distance. Build trust by respecting and trusting. It shows that we can help. Then Choi Jun-ho won't try to kill us either..”

“I'll do my best to fit it in.”

“It may be a bit difficult, but Director Cheon takes care of it..”

“yes.”

“The Japanese delegation is coming soon so there's a lot to prepare, but you know what I believe.?”

“···I will do my best to repay your trust..”

After receiving encouragement from the President, Cheon Myeong-guk returned to the office and sighed deeply..

After accepting Choi Jun-ho, work was flooding in..

Here's the delegation's visit.

I only had one body, but there was a mountain of work to do..

But strangely enough, the image of Choi Jun-ho using his hands remained in my mind..

“···It was amazing.”

The hand that reduced even a promising Chinese superhuman to a handful of blood and flesh..

How did such a monster appear?.

I investigated dozens of times and found nothing suspicious..

He grew up in an ordinary family and became an ordinary awakened person. But at some point, he gained the strength to see the world. And even more than that strength, a tougher personality was added..

How on earth are you supposed to control a guy like that?.

If things go well, it's all thanks to the president, and if things fail, it's all his fault..

“I'm going crazy.”

Cheon Myeong-guk felt his stomach hurt and made an appointment at the hospital..

* * *

The Japanese delegation was the next to visit after the Chinese delegation. The Minister of Awakening, who is second in rank in the Cabinet, personally led the delegation..

Unlike China, they always maintained a polite attitude..

To be precise, the atmosphere between Korea and China and Korea and Japan has been similar depending on the current relationship..

During this period, the relationship between Korea and Japan was not bad..

The crucial reason why this was possible was because the territories did not border. Since the two countries had no reason to argue over the problem of monsters near the border, cooperation on the problem of monsters was possible..

At the same time, they took on the role of a trading country that met each other's needs. In a world that has expanded due to limited air routes and sea routes, Korea and Japan have been reliable trading partners..

Minister Awakening, who was meticulously recording Nuri's hunting process, let out an exclamation..

“I respect you for taking the initiative to save your colleagues. We look forward to even greater hunting results in the future..”

“I also wish Japan good luck..”

Having achieved the purpose of his visit, Minister Awakening asked the President for his understanding and carefully brought up other agenda items..

It's about the league..

Not long ago, Japan was an awakened powerhouse with five superhumans. And there was a level 8 villain, and as the league arrived recently, a situation occurred where a superhuman converted to the league..

As a result, two superhuman-level villains are currently running around in Japan, which is causing a lot of trouble..

Minister Gakseong asked about the secret to South Korea's ability to maintain its position as a clean country in the league..

All you have to do is kill everyone you see, but do you need a secret??

I felt puzzled, but the Japanese side seems to believe that there is a real secret..

There can be no such way.

I went into sales to tell Japan how to strengthen the power of the Awakened..

I listened to the people at the Blue House speak one after another and then raised my hand to get the right to speak..

“In the end, isn't it better for hunters to become stronger in order to drive out the league??”

“···you're right.”

The Minister of Awakening seemed not to understand what I was saying..

I took out the heart of a monster.

“This is the heart of a monster created using a new processing method..”

“······.”

The Minister of Awakening had a puzzled expression, but his expression began to change as he injected force into the heart of the monster he was given..

He is also a hunter. Surprised at the efficiency of the monster's heart.

“Ugh, how is this efficient??”

“How is it.”

“It's amazing! Is this a new processing method? An amazing discovery was made in Korea. but······.”

The Minister of Awakening's expression darkened..

I guess I thought things would be expensive.

It's expensive. However, if it is produced locally, the story is different..

And the world knows and I know that Japan is rich, so why are they being so cruel?.

“We plan to proceed in the form of selling a license for the processing method of the product..”

“Is that true?”

“yes. For further details, please contact Shinsung Group..”

It's scheduled to be released soon, but there's no harm in selling it in advance..

My role ended with showing the products and connecting them with Shinsung Group. Looking at this, I think I'm really good at negotiating, but I don't know why people don't trust me..

Minister Awakening's expression brightened when he heard that the price would be determined within a reasonable range..

“thank you Junho Award. This will be a huge help.”

“It was nothing.”

“Although we are simple, we have prepared one thing..”

The awakened minister who said so brought a tightly sealed folder..

It contained unexpected content..

* * *

The Japanese delegation returned, and the president smiled after examining the monster's heart processing method..

“Because it is Shinsung Group’s processing method, the country will have a fruitful product..”

“Since it is a method that increases the efficiency of the monster's heart, it will be possible to apply it in various fields..”

“I would like nothing more if the efficiency of power plants increased. Because that is necessary to increase food self-sufficiency. The government should also spare no support..”

Since it was a means of attracting foreign currency, the president expected great results..

“It will be quite a bit of money. Team leader Lee Se-hee told me that I would make a lot of money..”

“This team leader? Then I'm sure.”

“You have a good sense of vision..”

“Isn’t this Chairman Lee’s daughter? If Chairman Lee has cultivated good soil, Team Leader Lee is cultivating it abundantly..”

Lee Se-hee's abilities were also recognized by the president..

“By the way, if you earn more money here, won't you become the richest person in our country??”

“I'm not sure about that. I'm not really trying to make money, but the more money the better..”

“The more money the better. Instead, it would be better to be careful about tax issues. They really follow the law..”

“I'm not trying to save money in any way. I have to pay as much as I earn to be proud..”

“The National Tax Service will treat you as a model taxpayer..”

Are you saying that I, who was a villain in my past life, am a model taxpayer in my current life?.

I liked it because it was like a symbol of normal economic activity..

Even if I pay all my taxes, I have no shortage of money to spend. The money I had right now and the money I would earn were just means to do what I wanted to do..

But how much will you earn?.

Lee Se-hee said it confidently, so it won't be a ridiculous amount..

For that, we are planning a large-scale showcase..

“however. what are you going to do with that.”

The eyes of the President and Cheon Myeong-guk gathered at my words..

If he had been relaxed a little while ago, he looked a bit anxious now..

“Busan mayor corruption.”

The document handed over by the Japanese Minister of Awakening was none other than corruption data regarding Busan Mayor Yoo Seong-soo..
