My Alter Ego’s Path to Greatness

Chapter 288

? White Knight (3) ?

The Internet was the medium through which the flow of public opinion could be most immediately grasped in modern society.

This is especially true in Korea, where the majority of citizens carry smartphones.

People eagerly spread news from all over the world by taking photos and videos in real time, which had a huge impact in spreading the news to communities including SNS.

And there was one topic that had continued steadily since the day before and almost monopolized the topic until the day had passed.

?A white knight suddenly appears and randomly tours hospitals across the country.?

It was news about the reappearance of the mysterious hero ‘White Knight’ who appeared and disappeared like the wind.

As he has recently been a figure of great interest not only in Korea but also around the world, citizens could not help but be interested in his sudden actions.

-Is that real? You’ve been hiding for so long and then suddenly come out and volunteer?

-I heard you went to not just one place, but many places? Didn’t you say that there is a limit to how sacred power can be used?

There were those who expressed doubts and expressed reasonable doubts, but what was presented before them was a variety of evidence taken in various places.

CCTV, as well as photos and videos taken at close range.

Evidence was poured out so clear that it could not be denied.

-crazy; It was real, right?

-Where are you? My mother is sick. Please share the location. ??

?It’s already too late. Now I’m hiding again.

-Ah, but why is nothing in focus?

?So. There is a sense of realism, but it is very difficult to recognize.

The response to it was naturally explosive.

However, there was one thing that people were disappointed about, and that was that, except for CCTV footage taken from afar, there was almost no material that properly captured the scene.

-Oh, hold the camera properly!

-??? He appeared briefly at the beginning and was just taking pictures of the floor the whole time lol

-?? I clicked on it out of curiosity and then became more curious.

But if you think about it, it was something that could not be helped.

The majority of those who faced the white knight this time were patients, their guardians, or hospital staff.

However, how many people would be able to calmly turn on the camera, set the angle, and point the lens in a situation where enormous divine power surrounds the surroundings and miracles occur in real time?

And that too, in a space where no one could move carelessly due to the charisma that naturally radiated from the overwhelming class.

Thanks to this, most of the videos that were captured were ones that happened to contain him by chance as they were being filmed for other reasons.

But in the meantime.

A video taken in that situation was released and the community was turned upside down again.

-Crazy dog is handsome;;

-Wow… The focus is this damn thing, but how can it be like that? It looks like some kind of filter was put on that side.

-The next handsome guy after Phantom Oppa?

?At this point, I have a reasonable suspicion that Hahoe Tal is also a handsome guy. Hahoe Taldo, let’s go~!

-But are you a foreigner? His facial features seem to be Asian… no, he looks like he’s mixed up with something, but is he mixed race?

A video captured the moment he took off his helmet and revealed his face at the children’s hospital he visited for the first time.

The handsome man with silver hair and golden eyes and a mysterious aura on the screen enthralled the public.

In particular, the response to the moment when he gently stroked the head of a child with a benevolent smile felt scary.

Naturally, fan cafes praising him sprang up.

The words he said at that time surfaced and began to go back and forth among the people.

-By the way, did you say that the denomination was Outerica? This is my first time hearing this. Does anyone know anything?

-Day 1 of Auterica conversion. I don’t know the doctrine, but I start by praying ignorantly.

-It seems like a name I’ve heard before somewhere… But

since Outerica was a dimension whose existence had only been revealed for a few months, many people were unaware of its existence unless they were interested in it.

However, this is the Republic of Korea, a country known for its rapid exchange of information.

Like modern people, they quickly found out the relevant information and started sharing it with each other.

-Auterica It was a newbie dimension name registered with the Returners Association some time ago. (Link)

?Oh? really? So what does that have to do with it?

?If you’ve done this, you can find the rest on your own??

?It’s annoying. ‘Do it’

– Wow, I thought something was suddenly going on, but it’s the Outerica dimension? I’m from there.

And as the matter escalated to that point, even someone who was directly involved with the incident came forward and testified.

In any case, the information about a specific dimension was not information to be hidden, and it was a topic consumed as a snack whenever returnees gathered together, so it was not particularly strange.

-oh! Let me explain the story. What do you know?

-Do you know who the white knight is? I think he would have been quite famous at that level. I’m curious about your identity.

-Uh no. There was a world-class religion called the Main Church in Outerica. But something is strange? The White Knight is from there?

However, the returnees who were well aware of the ‘Outerica’ dimension could not help but have some questions about the unfolding situation.

-uh? No, really? No, this can never happen, right? Why? what? Is it true? Oh really?

?Why is it broken?

?Don’t just keep this to yourself, let’s find out together.

?Seems like aggro? That’s right

…

-No, there is one person that comes to mind who fits the criteria. I’ve never seen it in person though. But he must be a warrior, right? Why is he here when we’re in the middle of a fight to save the world? Is the fight over there?

????

?What kind of bullshit is this?

?Hey, this aggro was novel. Now, let’s stop freaking out and leave it at this point.

Because the person that came to mind was someone who should not exist on this Earth.

And such confusion was spreading not only on the Internet but also offline.

***

At first glance, the office doesn’t seem to have anything special.

“So what Mr. Kang Tae-gyu said…”

However, the faces of the people inside were anything but ordinary.

“Are you saying that the most likely identity of the White Knight is a saint from the Outerica dimension?”

An agent of the Supernatural Abilities Management Bureau, a government agency responsible for controlling those with supernatural abilities.

An official of the Returned Association, which represents the awakened people by uniting for their rights and interests.

Priests of the Pantheon, a religious alliance in another world, dispatched to recruit the White Knight.

Although the atmosphere was not particularly intimidating, the person sitting face to face with them smiled awkwardly and eagerly confessed what he knew.

“Yes yes. That’s right. Perhaps because of its location, it was very famous. Heinrich St. Landgard. “Even if it’s not directly related to me, I can’t help but remember its full name.”

“Hmm…”

In response, the people in the office looked at each other in drool.

There weren’t that many returnees yet, but fortunately there were four people from Outerica registered in Korea as well.

And the person who was now testifying before them was one of them.

“Are you sure that’s the person in this video?”

The agent of the Ability Management Bureau, who was quietly stroking his chin, gently touched the tablet placed on one side again.

There, the edited version of the White Knight’s video from earlier was playing repeatedly.

“Well, I’m not sure… As I said before, I haven’t seen him in person since I have no particular connection with him. All I did was work in a small way on the outskirts of the empire. “Unless you are very lucky or become a very high-ranking person, it is difficult to meet great people who are like saints.”

“…I guess that’s true too.”

“But it’s probably right. Silver hair and golden eyes were known as one of the characteristics of saints and saints. Also, Saint Heinrich was a paladin, so… I think that sword is probably a holy sword.”

At this point, it can be said that the identity of the White Knight is almost certain.

However, even in the meantime, everyone here had an uneasy look on their faces.

Not only the investigation personnel gathered here, but also the witnesses who were requested and brought in as members of the Returnees Association.

“But why on earth is such a person here…”

Yes, that was the problem.

“Even if it is possible that he was from Earth… But right now, Outerica is at war with the Demon King… So, didn’t you say that he is at war with the Immortal King?”

“I heard it was also quite dangerous. The risk level estimated by the association was also ‘considerably high, caution required.’”

“But the fact that the hero who was supposed to be on the front line escaped to Earth is a bit… isn’t it? And if it’s true, doesn’t that mean he ran away with a holy sword? At that point, no matter how saintly he is, I don’t think God would grant him that level of divine power, right?”

If we look at it objectively, it seems clear that the identity of the White Knight is Heinrich Saint Landgard, a warrior of Outerica and a saint of the main church.

However, there were many difficulties in just accepting it that way.

“By the way, is there any additional news from the World Returnees Association regarding Outerica? “The saint suddenly disappeared there.”

“…I haven’t heard anything in particular, but… I’ll inquire again just in case.”

To be honest, it was a matter of another dimension and none of their business.

In this way, there were more than one world that was driven to a crisis and eventually suffered damage that led to destruction and became a ‘closed dimension’.

However, from the perspective of those who had been working with White Knight as their top priority for recruitment, the circumstances behind it could not help but feel uneasy in many ways.

When people from different affiliations are discussing various materials.

‘Of course, the fastest way would be to ask yourself. ‘Is there no way to communicate?’

Kang Tae-san, a new agent of the Ability Management Bureau who had been present along with his senior, went to the back, leaned against the wall, and savored his appetite.

Because he thought that thanks to the white knight, not only he, but also his grandmother and his friends were safe, he even disapproved of those who made pointless speculations about things that were not certain.

‘Oh, what can I do? ‘If I have to peel it, I have to peel it.’

He swallowed his frustration and quickly took out his smartphone to monitor it.

The communities were quieter than when they were on fire the day before, but they were still buzzing with talk about the white knight.

“uh?”

But even that peaceful moment was short-lived.

He frowned for a moment at the sudden surge of traffic, as if it were a symptom of something.

“Senior Seo! now…!”

He soon figured out the cause and let out a scream-like cry.

And at the same time.

Beep beep beep!

Tiriring—!

Various notification sounds rang out in the arms of those in the office.

As if hinting at a major event that has just begun.

***

I continued to worry.

How would it be best to reveal Heinrich’s existence?

It is clear that in order to divert the attention of the investigation team and escape the investigation net, it would be best for the subject, Heinrich, to step forward in person.

However, as there were many different methods, the key was which method to choose.

‘You can operate while hiding your identity like Hahoetal Hans and fabricate the main body’s alibi, or you can create a plausible fake identity like Phantom Heinz II and pretend to hide it to confuse the investigation.’

However, although they all had their own pros and cons, they were not a sure method.

Also, since it was realized that the Buncheonhoe was involved in this matter, it was necessary for this side to come to the forefront in order to actively respond to whatever tricks they were pulling.

So this was the method I chose.

‘Okay, let’s just open it up.’

That he was a saint of the Outerica dimension.

Of course, we couldn’t reveal everything 100%, so some settings modifications were inevitable.

In fact, it doesn’t really matter what happens as long as the identity of the main body is not revealed, but if there is a better way, wouldn’t it be better to choose that?

Plus…

“Then the White Knight is… no, I mean…”

“Heinrich St. Landgard.”

“Yes yes. So, what Heinrich St. Landgard said…”

I realized that I could use this excessive heat and attention on myself in other ways as well.

In modern society, public interest and support are power and power.

If we could use it well, our future work could be led in a much more comfortable direction.

But there’s no reason not to do that, right?

“Yes, I come from a place you call the Outerica dimension. To be more precise…”

Heinrich looked at the camera held by the man with a very nervous face—.

“…You could say they are from another world, not from Earth.”

He casually dropped the bomb with a gentle smile on his face.

“In accordance with the Lord’s will, in order to eradicate the evil hanging over all dimensions, including our Outerica.”

Okay.

Anyway, I’m used to cheating now.

If you think about it, it wasn’t that wrong.

‘Just take a peek.’

An auspicious halo swirled around Heinrich’s whole body.
