Chapter 103: Lee Seong hyun (2)

-Hello, viewers. Today, weve brought National Assembly member Lee Seong-hyun into the studio. Please greet the viewers, Congressman.

-Nice to meet you. Im Congressman Lee Seong-hyun, representing the voice of the people.

-Do you know youve been trending on the internet lately, Congressman?

-Im aware that Im popular among reporters. I wonder if there are any questions left for them to ask me

-Haha, your straightforward remarks are quite impressive, Congressman. Recently, an act you proposed has been gaining attention.

-The Anti-Player Act, you mean?

-Can you explain what kind of act it is?

-In simple terms, its an act to catch and punish players. Of course, good players have nothing to worry about. Its a law targeting players who commit crimes.

-Haha It must be a despair-inducing law for criminal players. Do you have a reason for proposing such a law?

-I consider players as cancer cells in society, you know? Of course, I mean criminal player. Anyway, six months since the appearance of players, indiscriminate murders, rapes, robberies, and thefts have been occurring, right? 77.5% of those actions are committed by players. Statistics prove it. So, its a problem we cant just ignore.

-So youre proposing this law to eliminate the cancer cells in society?

-Exactly. Honestly, I thought it wouldnt pass, but luckily, it did.

-That seems to indicate the severity of the situation.

-You know well, host. Thats correct. The situation is really serious these days.

-But, Congressman. Players play rounds in the other world every month, dont they? Its a rule that only half survive. In that case, wouldnt the numbers decline naturally? Is this law really necessary?

-Every time reporters ask me that question, I turn it around. Would you wait for a fire on your foot to naturally go out? No. Youd shake your foot to extinguish it quickly. Thats the current situation. You can speak like that when youre in a bystanders position. But in the victims shoes, youd want to catch and punish players as soon as possible, even if its just for a day.

-Ah, so waiting for players to vanish isnt a fundamental solution, is it?

-Exactly. To truly resolve this, we must uproot all players in this world. But mind you, only those with a criminal record, so dont misunderstand.

Beep-

The TV screen blinked out.

Misunderstand?

Lee Seong-hyun smirked.

What misunderstanding? All players must be completely eliminated. Whats wrong with that? You worthless bastards.

He buttoned up his shirt, threw on the suit jacket, and then he put on his tie.

Finally, he pinned the gold-colored congressman badge onto his lapel.

Lee Seong-hyun glanced at the mirror, and his gaze shifted to a photo of his son, smiling brightly while holding onto his fathers leg.

Our Seunghoon used to love it when I put on the badge for him before going to work

His elementary school son had tragically died five months ago at the hands of a player.

A player with newfound supernatural powers had, in an attempt to make money, accidentally killed Seunghoon during a clumsy kidnapping.

Just because they couldnt control their own power.

Of course, revenge was on his mind, but irritatingly, the player met their end in the next Round.

I should have taken that damn bastard down with my own hands.

Thunk-

Having missed the chance for revenge, Lee Seong-hyun redirected his attention to criminal players.

To prevent more victims like his son, he proposed an act, and fortunately, it passed.

Yet, contrary to what he mentioned in the broadcast, he viewed all players negatively.

Theres no such thing as a good player. All players are trash. Potential criminals who can unleash hidden powers at any moment.

Who knows when they might use their latent powers to shake the world.

Ordinary people couldnt coexist with such players.

All players must be wiped out.

Lee Seong-hyun grasped this twisted ideology, knowing it was wrong.

But he couldnt help it, if youre a player, his honest feeling is that he doesnt want to see you at all.

The chaos those abilities brought to the world was what he truly hated.

Yet he proposed an act to eliminate criminal players, using players in the police department.

As much as I hate them, I have no choice but to use the same players.

Players were simply uncontrollable by the power of ordinary people.

Even with the mobilization of the military, there were limits, so he decided to use players to control other players.

It was like using hunting dogs to catch other hunting dogs.

Luckily, the act had passed, so all that remained was to proceed swiftly.

Criminal players will see me as an enemy.

Surely they will find him troublesome.

Perhaps they might plan to kill him.

But there was no need to worry.

In preparation for such unfortunate circumstances, Ive hired young bodyguard players.

In this grim world, even security companies were composed entirely of players.

The price has skyrocketed, but whats more important than life?

I wont take money to the grave.

Money or anything else didnt matter as long as the goal of eradicating players was achieved.

He had nothing left to lose, after all.

Lets push through the act and wrap this up nicely.

It was morning, almost time to go to work, Lee Seong-hyun left his house and headed to the parking lot.

His bodyguards were ready at the door.

On both sides, one player each, and one in the front and one in the back, a total of four players protected him as he walked.

It was an ironic situation.

He, who disdained players, was being protected by players.

If only everything goes well this time, a world without players will come.

He had nothing more to wish for.

Thud-

Lets get in, Congressman.

Thank you.

When the bodyguard opened the rear door, Lee Seong-hyun got in without suspicion.

However, there was a woman sitting in the drivers seat, whom he hadnt seen before.

Who are you?

Hello, Congressman. Nice to meet you.

Who the hell are you?

Thunk-

Lee Seong-hyun could no longer speak.

He was knocked unconscious by the hand of the security guard who had opened the door a moment ago.

Yamti, its ready.

Yes. Ill go first. Please follow slowly.

Yes, Master.

Vroom-

The car carrying the congressman smoothly exited the parking lot.
