My alter ego is becoming a big shot - Episode 45

Beoncheonhoe (3)

After the battle in the spirit world, Hans searched the brains of Buncheonhoe executives again and extracted information..

It was possible because the mental world was devastated by the aftermath of the battle, but the physical brain was not damaged much..

Of course, it was affected to some extent and resulted in significant damage, but this is something we have to deal with..

‘Hmm, it wasn't as easy as I thought though..’

A fight with the leadership of the Buncheonhoe that took place in the spirit world..

At first, I thought I could easily win with “Mind Herb” alone, but it wasn’t easy to deal with because they also had unique skills related to it..

Well, it would have been possible to plant prohibition in other people's mental worlds and move around as they please..

The guy's mental power was at an incredible level, but even Hans, who concentrated his avatars' resources, was not inferior to him..

However, I don't know what kind of unique skill it had, but every time I allowed its attack, the "Bright View Index" shook and the amount of information applied to the "Mind Hub" exploded..

Even so, Hans is constantly operating the “Mind Hub” to combat the continuous mental contamination coming from the ‘Fragment of the Immortal King’..

In that situation, the enemy's attacks continue to accumulate, and the blocked information flows backwards, leading to a dangerous situation..

‘So I just let it go.’

During the war, rebellions erupted from within and enemy attacks came from outside..

Is there any need to be caught in the middle and suffer?.

They simply opened up the enemy's invasion route and guided it towards the rebels, and instead concentrated their forces on the other side, completely blocking the mainland..

The enemy, who knew nothing, inertially rushed at the rebels.···.

The result was a spectacular victory for the rebels..

Even the religious order called it ‘mental pollution that no being can overcome.’.

There was no way his attack would work on the fragments, which were a collection of evil intentions..

In the process, the mental world that became the battlefield was devastated and tattered, but it was none of my business as I was going to die anyway..

Yes, even the land where the war took place in the first place was a colony of the enemy army..

‘This was a trick that was possible because it was someone else's mental world and I was in a spiritual state..’

Still, if the results are good, isn’t everything good?.

I leisurely watched the fight···.

After the green spirit was torn to pieces by the black man who was charging at him in a frenzy and barely escaped, he leisurely put the leash back on the lost fragment..

‘Still, it's a shame I lost him..’

With his spiritual body damaged to that extent, he would never be safe, but it was a bit disappointing that he couldn't definitely finish it off..

In addition, there was no benefit other than the information learned through the conversation, and in fact, only damage occurred to the memory that could be obtained from the executive's brain..

But it was a little early to express such sentiments..

《An entity gained enlightenment by extorting the karma of others. The skill “Dark Magic” evolves into the special skill “Way of Magic”..》

‘uh? suddenly?’

Of course, at some point I felt like I had reached my limit, but I thought I still needed more time.···.

But I soon found out the cause.

[Oh, you absorbed the remnants of the spiritual body scattered throughout the spirit world. This is unexpected income?]

In the process of reading the executive's memories with dark magic, fragments of the green spirit body scattered throughout the mental world came in..

With all the knowledge and enlightenment that comes with it,.

And extorting business also meant that as one side grew, the other side's level was lowered..

‘I wondered if there was a way to use it again... This is not a generally usable method..’

Coincidentally, the other person was damaged while in a spiritual state, and the mental world where the debris was scattered was like an inanimate object that had been devastated and lost its function..

In addition, the fact that the undead, who lacked existence itself, were forcibly connected to the spiritual world through black magic played a complex role..

Of course, this was also a dangerous thing that could lead to mental contamination, but as always, it had nothing to do with me..

‘Even if all other conditions are the same, someone who can invade another person's mind with a spiritual body is needed as a sacrifice... A person with that kind of ability is probably not common..’

The guy who hit me this time will most likely start running away the next time he runs into me..

It must be said that this was a special case..

But thanks to you, I was able to overcome the wall, so I can celebrate now..

「Thanks to “Way of Magic,” I can now expand my reach into other fields as well as black magic..

‘Of course, there are things to do before that..’

Whoa whoa—

In an instant, black magic arose, and Hans, enveloped in darkness, jumped through space..

The goal is the place I learned this time.

It was the Seoul branch of Beoncheonhoe..

***

While Heinz remained at the villa and managed the remnants, Hans worked diligently..

Unfortunately, the coordinates I extracted from the executive were damaged, so I couldn't find them right away, but I was able to search the area and find their headquarters..

Meanwhile, it goes without saying that the growth of magic through the “Way of Magic” was of great help..

But their response was even faster than that..

‘As soon as I read the memory, I headed this way, and the time I spent searching the surroundings wasn't that long.···.’

When I visited them, they were already busy clearing their base and preparing to escape..

“Ugh... how already?!”

“Oh, no!”

Luckily, it wasn't too late, and I was able to capture the guys who were busy incinerating their data and read their memories..

[Has the order already come?···.]

Only to realize that an evacuation order had already been issued from above, and the executives immediately went into hiding..

He handed over the incineration of data to the branch's subordinates and went into hiding..

Since each of them individually hid their whereabouts, there was no information to be found from the remaining guys..

‘Still, I'm glad we caught one executive. I was able to get some information.’

“Turn it off, turn it off···.”

Hans looked down at the older man struggling with his head held..

Director of Technology Research Center, Seoul Branch of Beoncheonhoe.

Unlike other executives, he was greedy in order to obtain even one more piece of research material, and missed the time to run away, so he was captured by Hans..

Thanks to you, I was able to retrieve most of my research materials intact, so I should be grateful..

Of course, that and a peaceful death are different..

[Kkuk...kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk···]

Hans glanced at the undead executive and looked at the rest of the data..

The main focus was on whether important things, such as the latest operational orders, were handled separately first, and simple information such as an overview of past operations..

At least it was a result that was achieved by breaking in and destroying the magic just before they destroyed all the remaining data..

The director of the research center probably had no interest in anything other than research, so he didn't know anything about this area, so he wasn't of much help..

‘Anyway, I think it's true that they've been active for a long time..’

Files organized by year and small USB sticks attached to them.

However, according to the information searched through their heads, the details are immediately reported to the higher-ups and then discarded..

This means that the data stored here is literally just a compendium..

Hans first neatly packed up the remaining items at his base and moved back to the villa where Heinz was waiting..

There were still a lot of remnants there to extract information from..

[I expected it to be like this. There's nothing better than the first one.]

However, since the Buncheonhoe is made up of branch organizations, there was no one who had more information than the executive I first read about..

Of course, the skills and knowledge each person acquired were helpful..

“Hmm, it seems like it's settled to some extent. The leaders of the hardliners of the clan were also dealt with, and the Beoncheonhoe that was helping them also ended..”

[Haha... Reading the executive's memories, it seems like Alpha was half a member of the Buncheon Association before. After this incident, he completely disappeared..]

Heinz licked his lips with regret..

Because I felt so bad that I couldn't eat Alpha, the leader of the hardliners..

Of course, considering that the level of the trap was quite tight, there would be a high probability that Alpha would have been able to escape without being able to overcome them..

If you look at it that way, it was a lucky situation again..

Thanks to this, I was able to overeat to the point of feeling bloated..

Of course, if it was the blood of a high-level person, he would have drank it down, even if it meant coughing up all the low-level blood..

“Now that the hardliners have been destroyed this far, they know that returning now too late will be of no use. Since I have no place to go, I will completely turn to that direction now..”

[I wish I could have tracked him down right away and definitely put an end to his breathing. It's a shame.]

“It seems like the Buncheonhoe are a bigger force than I thought. Based on the information so far, it appears that this is not an organization limited to Korea..”

[Come to think of it, there was data taken from their base. I don't know if there's any tricks there, so I'll have to check here again..]

Hans and Heinz giving and receiving conversation.

Of course, it was just a muttering to myself while I was organizing my thoughts, but it didn't really matter now..

After all, there was no one alive here except Heinz..

Hans took out all the materials from the Beoncheonhoe branch that he had packed away..

It was not difficult to check the organized files because the entire cabinet and bookshelf containing the files were placed in a subspace..

Hans is mainly looking at the research logs, and Heinz is looking at the operation outlines divided by year..

It was difficult to check the attached USB right away, so I was only understanding the general information..

“···her?”

Heinz stopped when he found a document..

Hans, who was examining the data, stopped momentarily like a robot whose power was turned off..

Where Heinz's eyes fell.

There is a document with a date and place that Han Seong-hyun can never forget..

was there.

***

“ah! Mr. Heinz, are you here??”

At dawn, Heinz went to see Jin Shaoran..

To inform you of the results of last night's fight, and···.

“···yes? What happened to the hardliners? Also, you want to meet our leader... No, wait a minute. Before that, could you please say it one more time??”

“Over the course of last night, most of the hardliners' executives except Alpha were taken out. A few Gammas dispatched to local areas were missed, but that would not have any effect on the general trend. I would like to have a conversation with the leader of the moderate faction regarding that..”

Heinz calmly repeated what he had said mechanically..

Perhaps because he was suddenly exposed to shocking information, Jin So-ran seemed confused for a moment, but then carefully looked at Heinz's notice..

“That... Mr. Heinz. I'll upload it once I see it. Well, we need time to check the facts... and it's too sudden.···.”

“Jin So-ran.”

Heinz's indifferent voice cut her off..

A sudden silence.

Heinz quietly looked down at her..

“······!”

The dizzying scent of blood spread thickly..

Last night, the vampire factor that had rapidly increased after feasting on countless vampires spewed out blood magic all at once..

Jin So-ran stiffened and held his breath, feeling a sense of oppression as if his heart was being squeezed..

‘I knew Mr. Heinz was strong, but I never thought it would be this much.···!’

It was not simply pressed down with the amount of blood magic power..

something was radically different.

A fear that stimulates more inner instincts, as if a predator is glaring at you..

At some point she realized that she was breathing heavily..

‘At least level 7, maybe higher... It's not up to me to judge.’

She quickly assessed the situation and immediately changed her stance..

“Contact me right away and we will schedule an appointment as soon as possible.!”

The leader of the moderate faction is level 7..

I didn't feel this way when I faced the leader, so I guess Heinz is stronger than that..

I heard a rumor that the hardliner's alpha had reached level 8, but it was unconfirmed information and I had never seen it in person, so it was off topic..

“Okay, then let’s talk about ways to strengthen the clan’s military power. Treatment of hardliners.”

“Yes, that's right... yeah?”

Heinz now has a reason to increase his power as quickly as possible..

The clan was an appropriate force in that respect..

Although the hardliners were cut off and their military strength was reduced, they had the basic strength as they had lasted for a long time..

In terms of secrecy, intelligence, and influence, it was one of the few organizations in the behind-the-scenes world to be counted in Korea..

They also have a new ability to leash, so I will use them as much as I can..

Probably not a bad proposition even from a moderate standpoint..

Depending on how you accept it, the conversation can proceed in a direction that is mutually beneficial..
