Episode 130
Anna Christine doesn’t seem to understand it on her own, but when the initiative is taken away, a gap appears.
Perhaps he doesn’t know because he has been in charge of the negotiations.
No, the average person wouldn’t notice. Because I sense the energy radiating from that person rather than their facial expressions or gestures. If you are not sensitive to the Force, you will most likely not be able to detect it.
Now that I think about it, the only person my method didn’t work on was Jeong Da-hyun.
I think he instinctively sensed how I read. I also use a similar method to detect the other person’s intentions.
The only people who completely fooled me were black market merchants. I went back to the past and didn’t know that I had been deceived for a long time.
Even now, Anna Christine, who had caught me off guard, tried to control her expression, but was giving off a suspicious aura.
America has known about the existence of Shinsoo for a long time.
[Why do you ask that? [Why is that so?]
The blue dragon whined next to me, but I stared at Anna Christine and urged her to answer.
He must have decided that evasion would be difficult, so he sighed.
“The reason you say that is because you met Shinsu? Since I recently went to North Korea, there is a high probability that it is Mt. Baekdu.”
“that’s right.”
“First of all, it is true that divine beasts exist. The authorities believe that monsters and divine beasts must be distinguished. Divine beasts are different from monsters. “They have reason and have insight and judgment that surpasses that of humans.”
[I know it well. I am very different from someone who calls me a monster.]
Did I ask for no reason?
Seeing this Yongyong’s child so proud makes me feel a little regret.
“It wasn’t long ago that the new beast was discovered in America. “It was exactly three years ago.”
Anna Christine’s explanation began.
The first place where Shinsu was discovered was in Washington state. The government and parliament are said to have been shaken by the appearance of a monster capable of conveying its will in a place close to the border with Canada.
The government immediately dispatched an investigation team and began negotiations with the talking monster.
“The monster revealed itself as Thunderbird. “It is a legendary bird that has been passed down orally for a long time.”
In fact, it is said that the monster’s appearance resembled a thunderbird. Yongyong immediately intervenes, pretending to know.
[Oh, him? Ande is very strict. [He has a really dirty temper!]
Is he weirder than you? No, divine beasts may be inherently strange creatures.
by the way.
Even a distant American god knows about it? Then, I think I know where the gods in other countries are. I’ll have to catch him later and interrogate him.
It is easy to verify information because it is cross-checked with Yongyong.
“Have you collided with it?”
“…At first, I tried to hunt. “The price was a crushing failure.”
Anna Christine thought that the Thunderbird might be the world’s first plus-level monster to appear.
So that means it’s not the first time I’ve suggested it.
Was what I saw not a monster with two horns, but a divine beast?
I remember not being able to speak.
“After suffering a painful loss, we reached an agreement to recognize all of the Thunderbird territory. The United States does not invade the Thunderbird territory, and the Thunderbird prevents the monsters that exist in its territory from flowing to other places.”
It was some kind of defense agreement. It is said that the Thunderbird and the U.S. government have an open communication channel and an exchange relationship when something is needed.
In fact, the deterrent power of the thunderbird is so strong that the frequency of monster appearances has decreased in Washington state and the neighboring states of Idaho, Oregon, and Montana.
He is very different from the self-proclaimed divine beast who joined hands with a dictator who is a human butcher.
[I also cooperated for humanity, right?]
Shinsu, who is stuck in the corner of the room on Mt. Baekdu, makes an excuse.
“It will be effective.”
“Yes, it’s effective. “What is the name of the god Junho saw?”
[Don’t say it, it’ll be annoying.]
It’s up to anyone.
“They say it’s a blue dragon.”
[Can’t you hear me?]
“Blue dragon is cool. “If you say it in English, the blue dragon looks strong.”
[I know very well that I am strong. Do you like this human woman?]
Raise your nose. When they asked for a fight, I pushed the space away so I wouldn’t have to deal with him.
[I usually don’t have anything to do with crazy people!]
If you’re dissatisfied, face it head on like a thunderbird.
[You don’t like it?]
Plus, he reads my thoughts and speaks clearly.
He was a really cumbersome guy.
“From what you’re saying, I guess America guessed that there is a divine beast on Mt. Baekdu, don’t you think?”
“that’s right. It seemed like he didn’t like talking, so I just watched quietly. In fact, Ryu Gwang-cheol’s eyes were open and blue.”
“That guy?”
“Yes, Ryu Gwang-cheol boasted that he would tame the blue dragon at any time.”
[Nonsense! Who needs to be tamed!]
Yongyong wriggled and screamed.
You touched a sensitive spot.
But I was curious how it was viewed in the United States.
“Did that seem possible?”
“I thought it was impossible, but Ryu Gwang-cheol thought he could reach a compromise with Shin-soo, a man who would do anything.”
[You saw it right.]
In fact, Ryu Kwang-cheol and Yongyong reached a compromise.
He believed that and tried to protect himself, but he was killed by me.
“How many divine beasts have been identified so far?”
“It’s just a guess, so it’s not accurate.”
Anna Christine said the number would not exceed ten. The Thunderbird was the only one to confirm that it was real.
Other divine beasts are extremely reluctant to come into contact with humans.
Among them, there is a divine beast that kills everyone within its territory.
There are also grumpy blue dragons, so they probably have different personalities.
[I know how great I am… Wait a minute, I’m not a prick.] I’m
elated at the scarcity, but then I react right away. The swagger was annoying to my eyes.
“If that answers you, can I tell you my story?”
“say.”
“First of all, there is a very high chance that Junho will become a nuisance in the future.”
“suddenly?”
“Because the performance he has shown so far makes no sense. In fact, you were being checked knowingly or unknowingly, right?”
Was it like that?
I remember there were only minor tackles.
[I kept other humans in check, but you went around killing them all, right?]
This Yongyong guy seems to think that if I mess up, he will kill me.
…But sometimes I saved it.
“I think there’s a reason why you brought that up.”
“Do you like conspiracy theories?”
“Not really.”
Whenever I see a guy muttering something behind me, I want to smash his head.
No, did you already break it?
“It’s a story about a group that appears in those conspiracy theories.”
“Go ahead.”
“It is a gathering of powerful people who decide the world situation. “To the extent that even the President of the United States chooses compromise rather than revealing the truth.”
They are not an organization that has taken over world hegemony.
However, he has had the power to lead the world situation for a long time and has been encouraging public opinion to be closer to his intentions.
Although its power has weakened since the appearance of the monster, it is said that it is still acting as a powerful force behind the scenes.
“On the surface, it appears to be a social gathering for powerful people.”
“How did you know?”
“I was recruited as someone who would represent their interests. “I’m also pretty.”
“Yeah, that’s right.”
“…I don’t like the reaction. Anyway, I received an offer, but I declined it.”
“why?”
“Because the methods are childish. And I hate being dishonest.”
Actually, if those guys hiding their identity had approached me, I would have broken my limbs first.
Among guys with secrets, it was rare to find someone who didn’t have any other thoughts.
“So what does it mean to be bothersome?”
“From their perspective, Junho is a big variable. “Junho’s existence is a hindrance to the world situation that high-ranking people are envisioning.”
“I should worry about hunting monsters, but don’t waste my energy on useless things.”
“I agree.”
“Can you get rid of me?”
“We don’t remove it. Instead, they just act like a nuisance.”
Then I just have to get rid of them first and that’s it.
Should I just go and wipe it out before they start plotting?
[I’m thinking bad thoughts again!]
It’s bad. I’m calling this a preemptive measure, Yongyong.
“It will move soon. If you don’t know, you feel bad, right? “If you know, you will be able to respond.”
“Are you asking me to kill them all?”
“….”
“I’m kidding. “It’s useful information, so keep it in mind.”
“Junho’s jokes seem serious, which is a problem.”
[He just said it seriously!]
“I see. “I have to be careful.”
[lie! I was really planning to kill her!]
Next to her, Yongyong diligently reported the truth, but Anna Christine couldn’t hear her.
“How do you think I’m quite helpful?”
“okay.”
I ate a spoonful of soybean paste stew. Deep and savory taste. It’s a taste that makes me reflect on the fact that I’ve been enjoying it so much lately that I thought about switching to cheonggukjang.
“Knowing about this store was a big help.”
“Then I want to get paid too.”
“cost?”
“yes!”
He looks at me with bright eyes.
Wasn’t it a relationship where we exchanged what we needed? It’s quite embarrassing when you suddenly ask for something. While thinking about what I could give her, I looked at her body and said,
“Now that I think about it, I see something urgent.”
“Which one is it?”
“Should I change seats?”
“yes? yes!”
Anna Christine, who had a puzzled expression on her face, soon smiled mischievously.
[uh? He thinks dirty things!]
Really? I got the street number wrong.
The place I took Anna Christine to was the training ground.
A look of confusion was evident.
“Huh Junho? “It’s a different place than what I expected…”
“You’re in the right place. “You haven’t been training properly lately, have you?”
“yes?”
“I’m so focused on beauty that my muscles are disorganized.”
The awakened person must be fully prepared to deal with villains or monsters at any time.
Anna Christine was so focused on improving her beauty that her body was unsuitable for being an awakened person.
You helped me, but I can’t just ignore this.
“I’ll fix it for you, so come change your clothes.”
“Now wait a minute.”
“You’re going to leave it that way? It would be uncomfortable to move. It’s better to change into comfortable clothes before struggling. “Using evil helps me endure pain.”
The training I’m going to do now is a process of straightening my muscles, so it’s very painful.
Oh, by the way, there is no right to veto.
There is a compulsion to my favor.
“Oh, okay. Wait.”
Anna Christine, looking downcast, moved to change her clothes.
The blue dragon looks at me with admiration.
[You are truly an amazing human being.]
What?
* * *
After correcting my twisted muscles using Anna Christine’s screams as background music, I went out into the street with Blue Dragon.
As I returned to the past and lived a sane life, I realized many things.
I learned about the existence of a divine beast that I had no idea about, and I also saw that there was a city ruled by Ryu Gwang-cheol in North Korea, which I thought was a paradise for monsters.
Maybe the reason why Ryu Gwang-cheol disappeared when I was a hematologist was because he incurred the wrath of the blue dragon?
Since it happened in the future, it can only be imagined.
Actually, I still don’t know what the difference is between monsters and divine beasts.
[Monsters and divine beasts are completely different beings.]
Blue Dragon said that divine beasts are the spirituality formed through the accumulation of various myths and legends that has gained a physical body. He explained that monsters were born based on pure malice, and that the only thing that exists within them is the desire for destruction.
Are you saying you are different from birth?
It’s similar to Hunter saying that he and the villain are different.
If one spoonful of crime is added, Hunter becomes a villain.
“You mean, minus the spirituality, it’s similar to a monster?”
[…How can things happen like that!]
I can’t refute it, so I’m whining.
But doesn’t that make sense? First of all, I understand the desire to differentiate yourself from monsters.
I said, touching the heart of the monster in my arms.
“This is what you gave me. “I heard you were strong?”
[huh. It was very strong. If I had made a mistake, I would have lost?]
If a self-proclaimed divine being could say that, what level would it have been?
It must have been a monster at the fighting stage.
What the blue dragon said, and what I felt, was that the power within the monster’s heart itself was different. I was reluctant to sell it like this.
“Anyway, where am I going to use this…”
[Of course… wow!]
“What is it?”
[Oh, it’s nothing! Just ignore it! Because it’s nonsense!]
Just hearing it sounds suspicious. What were you trying to say?
[Wow, the city is so pretty.]
The guy who was avoiding my gaze began to openly look around the city.
I wanted to catch him and question him further, but when I saw him cleverly running away, I thought he was a clever guy.
I decided to ask later and walked down the street.
As the northward advance was successful, the entire city was engulfed in a strange fever.
Maybe that’s why these days, guys wearing fake faces that you’d never seen before were walking around.
I ripped off the face of a man walking down the street.
“Ugh!”
Squeak!
The skin on the face of an ordinary man was peeled off, revealing a grim face full of scars.
It was obvious just by looking at his appearance.
“He’s a villain.”
Crack!
Without hesitation, I broke his arm and kicked his leg, making him fall down.
“Aaaah!”
Is it because a large amount of the awakened power has been drained? There are villains roaming the streets.
If you look here or there, there are a lot of suspicious guys.
I need to do some house cleaning, right?
[There he is running away!]
I looked around and reached out to the guy who was running away. The mine crossed the space and broke both legs like a piece of corn.
The street that was once crowded with people suddenly turned into chaos.
“Are there any more, Yongyong?”
[Yes!]
From then on, Blue Dragon’s activity began.
[He has the same powder as the guy you defeated?]
[He also has something strange on his face!]
[Huh? This guy is sending and receiving strange signals?]
The number of villains that were subdued like that was over ten. I looked around after calling for the awakened person to come arrest me. The suspicious guy was no longer visible.
[and! These people can’t even eat properly. It’s pitiful. How did I get caught by such an evil person…]
“That’s it.”
I didn’t know this, but this guy had pretty good abilities.
“How did you find out?”
[me? I can see through the original essence.]
This is a walking villain detector.
It’s more useful than you think?
“Why didn’t you tell me?”
[People like you walked around with confidence, so I thought they were good kids.]
“….”
This Yongyong bastard.
“If you see a guy on the road who you think is a villain, give him a look. okay?”
[It’s annoying.]
“Send me back to Mt. Baekdu?”
[Okay, I’ll do it.]
Then he looks at me intently.
“….”
[….]
Why isn’t it moving?
“What are you looking at?”
[If there is someone you think is a villain, give them a look.]
“Stop talking nonsense and take the lead.”
[huh….]
