The Crazy Villain Regains His Sanity

Chapter 215

Episode 215

After Choi Jun-ho left, James Reed began to clean up the mess. The League’s villains who lost their ships and fell into the sea were rescued, and Japanese awakeners joined in this work.

James Reed, who had captured and imprisoned all the villains, was reluctant to return to this situation, so he resumed his search.

But the results were disappointing. I succeeded in finding a few reactions that were presumed to be the essence of the artificial divine beast, but they were all reactions of sea monsters.

As a result, he had to go through an unnecessary battle with the sea monster, and when he could no longer sense a reaction, he showed a look of disappointment after confirming that there was nothing.

“I’m so tired, my bones hurt.”

It was information obtained from a trustworthy person. Since the being’s precognition was never wrong, I was confident that the essence of the artificial divine beast was there.

But the result was failure.

In the end, James Reed had to arrive at Pohang via Ulleungdo and then go up to Seoul without even reaping any harvest.

Meanwhile, the international situation was rapidly boiling over.

It became known that the United States soon joined what had been announced as a joint investigation area between Korea and Japan and that the League raided the area.

The opposition party called for the truth to be revealed, claiming that there was collusion with another country.

It was a reaction that James Reed did not understand.

Isn’t it normal to cooperate regardless of whether the ruling party or the opposition party makes decisions for the country? What I was doing now was simply opposition for the sake of opposition. If the internal negotiations are made public, uncontrollable chaos may arise.

Even though I thought it was the culture of that country, I couldn’t help but not understand it. If you wanted to find fault at all costs, there was nothing you could do.

James Reed, who arrived at the Blue House amidst this confusion, reported what had happened on Dokdo.

The death of Gunji, a Japanese superhuman, and Choi Jun-ho disappearing through space while chasing Arrow.

Not only the Blue House personnel, but also Jeong Joo-ho, a member of Choi Jun-ho’s team, listened to this fact in silence.

James Reed apologized because he felt it was his fault.

“sorry.”

“it’s okay. Rather, they suffered in a faraway place.”

“But wasn’t Junho in danger because of me?”

Even James Reed had no idea that the league had prepared such a secret weapon.

It was an honest remark made with a sorry heart, but the president’s words were unexpected.

“Huh, well. “Honestly, I’m not worried.”

“What?”

“Personally, I don’t think there’s anything more unnecessary than worrying about Choi Jun-ho.”

“….”

How should I accept this?

The president’s words were also not wrong.

Choi Jun-ho’s strength was so abnormal. It is never wrong to have blind faith in its strength.

James Reed suddenly looked around and could see that no one but himself was worried about Choi Jun-ho’s safety.

Cheon Myeong-guk, who had been watching quietly, intervened.

“I don’t think Choi Jun-ho would be in danger even if he went to the enemy’s stronghold. Rather, think about what the consequences would be if you fell in the center of your home base.”

Choi Jun-ho moved into space in the middle of the league branch?

Will it be Choi Jun-ho or the league’s villains who will die?

No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t picture Choi Jun-ho suffering.

“…indeed.”

The league coveted treasure for no reason and ended up bringing a wild beast into the house.

“Our faith is well founded.”

The president’s voice was full of confidence.

And three days later.

Choi Jun-ho returned to Korea.

* * *

The guys in the league were clearly overly confident in themselves.

After being alone in a remote area and exploring here and there, I found out that the league base I destroyed was the Kamchatka Peninsula.

It was also not far from the coast.

I realized that I had come a long way and realized my mistake. If I had known this would happen, I would have brought a satellite phone.

I thought I would only deal with those who came to Dokdo, but I didn’t know that I would go that far. Just don’t repeat the same mistake next time.

Anyway, while taking care of the villains who had run away, I found an anchored ship. Although the control method was different, it wasn’t long before I was able to get the hang of it and return.

As we encountered several marine monsters along the way, time was delayed considerably, and it took three days to return to Seoul.

“No one was worried. “Everyone was counting on you.”

This is what I heard from the President when I arrived at the Blue House.

Don’t worry though.

“It was concluded that the essence of the artificial divine beast was swallowed by another monster.”

“It would have been most likely if we had left it alone.”

Of course, I don’t know if I can digest it or not.

Looking at it this way, it was quite an achievement that the dog ate it without any problems.

“However, some are not ruling out the possibility that you took it.”

“is that so?”

“Because it’s easy to think that way.”

But everyone thinks about this in their hearts and doesn’t show it outwardly.

Rather, it seemed like Japan was being criticized for creating the essence of an artificial divine beast, failing to manage it properly, and then allowing monsters to consume it, thereby increasing the possibility of plus-plus level monsters appearing.

That’s right, the one who made a dangerous item and lost it should be criticized.

“It’s a two-horned monster.”

“The signs are unusual.”

The President said that the speed at which monsters are becoming stronger around the world has become faster in recent years than 30 years ago, and that the emergence of plus-level monsters is no longer a story of imagination.

“Elsewhere, my stomach is burning. “We are relatively well-off.”

“If you keep exploiting me, I won’t renew my contract.”

“It doesn’t matter. “I will have retired by then.”

I shook my head as I saw him smiling happily.

[I think you stopped me?]

* * *

When I left the Blue House and returned to the office, the first person to come to me was James Reed.

“Jun Ho! “You were so worried!”

“Aren’t you back?”

“Junho is gone, how can I go? “I’m so loyal!”

“Let’s say so.”

“and! “It’s so unfair!”

Being unfair is something that remains because it has a purpose.

I know this guy like James Reed knows me. This guy waited for me because he wanted to check something or had another purpose.

It’s his talent to act in a non-obnoxious way.

Of course, I don’t care about things like that, so I’ll let it go later.

“That annoying guy has been eliminated.”

“really?”

“There were other villains at the base, so I wiped them all out.”

There is no need to talk about playing tag again on the Kamchatka Peninsula.

“Did you really remove it?”

“uh.”

“It’s so annoying.”

“Shouldn’t you normally be impressed when things like that happen?”

“But what can I say when I say it’s terrible and it’s terrible?”

“….”

[Isn’t this guy going to get a beating?]

Yongyong’s thoughts and mine were exactly the same.

I decided to take care of it later and changed the subject.

“But it seems like he has ties to an international mercenary group.”

“Arrow?”

“uh. “Before he died, he mentioned an international mercenary group.”

“Then it could be true that Arrow converted from an international mercenary group.”

“Do you know anything?”

“there is.”

To put it simply, what James Reed was talking about was the ambiguous relationship between international mercenaries and the League. There are times when mercenaries belonging to international mercenary groups commit crimes while carrying out operations, and in such cases, they run away and commit themselves to the league.

The international mercenary group, which suffered a loss of trust as a result, is taking a hard line against the league, but is not having much effect due to the nature of the organization.

“Aren’t you taking advantage of our bad relationship?”

“difficult. All mercenaries think of it as a place of refuge since they can go to the league if they have the chance. And maybe.”

“Maybe what?”

“The international mercenary group may already be in the hands of the League.”

Seeing that Arrow is from an international mercenary group, the possibility is weighted.

The party has been investigating this possibility for a long time.

Then, does the situation become strange when Nakayama joins an international mercenary group to avoid going to the league?

They say it’s still just a hypothesis, so I guess I’ll have to do that.

“Jun Ho! “I’m curious about something.”

“what?”

“It seems like there is no artificial divine essence on Dokdo! Who took it first?”

And then he looks at me secretly.

The skinny guy is staring at me. Although there is no evidence, it seems like they have made up their minds and are asking me.

The best thing about me going back in time is that I don’t care about the evidence when I’m killing a bad guy, but I can talk about the evidence when I’m trying to claim I’m irrelevant.

If you are dissatisfied, you can use force to cover my mouth.

“That could be possible.”

“yes?”

“Are you suspecting me?”

“It’s just one of the possibilities.”

“Is there any evidence?”

“Of course there is no evidence…”

“But why do you doubt it?”

“haha!”

James Reed could not say anything more and just smiled.

I changed the subject.

“But why did the league come to Dokdo?”

“What?”

I threw the bait, but the league guys were foolish enough to put their all into it. Is the essence of an artificial divine beast so coveted? When I only saw the results, I was very disappointed, so I wondered if it was something they would invest that much into.

But James Reed jumped.

“It was artificially created, but it is the essence of a divine beast! Essence of Divine Beasts!”

“Why is that?”

“Jun Ho! You know very well about the essence of the divine beast! And then you’re asking?”

“I’m asking because I wonder if it’s something the league covets so much.”

“under.”

James Reed looked at me with an expression of bewilderment. I didn’t really like it, but I tolerated it because there was an answer I wanted to hear.

“The Essence of the Divine Beast is said to be a treasure that can raise an adept several levels higher and make him stronger. It is known that Argos transcended human limitations by obtaining this, and the story of Hell Master also searching for the essence of the divine beast is famous. Of course, for superhumans, the essence of the divine beast is a treasure among treasures that can advance to the next level.”

Is that why they came rushing in? I couldn’t even think of becoming stronger just by relying on objects.

“Now the rumor is spreading that Junho has also obtained the essence of a divine beast. “That’s why I’m so stubborn.”

“It’s not.”

“That’s how amazing the essence of Shinsu is.”

“okay.”

Argos has obtained the essence of the Divine Beast and is also chasing Hell Master and the others. If you get one later, it might be a good idea to dig a trap.

Or Yongyong, can you lend me the Essence of the Divine Beast for a moment?

[Are you crazy?]

Don’t do it if it doesn’t work out. Angkaljigi.

Blocked by Yongyong’s strong defense, I asked a few more questions about the essence of the divine beast.

James Reed explained it in detail to the best of his knowledge, but I felt like there wasn’t much to it.

[of course. I, Shinsoo, explained it myself!]

Is that so?

Still, I dug it up because it was connected to another place.

“How did you come to Korea with confidence?”

“That’s…”

“Not if it’s difficult to answer.”

“No, that’s not it.”

“then?”

James Reed scratched his head and muttered, “I’m so embarrassed,” as my gaze followed him persistently, before telling me the source of the information.

It was the Thunderbird that informed the U.S. government that Dokdo contained the essence of an artificial divine beast.

* * *

“Ha!”

When James Reed saw Choi Jun-ho leaving, he sighed.

He tried to get information from Choi Jun-ho, but it was he who stole the information.

Mentioning the thunderbird was an arbitrary judgment. The U.S. government requested that this be kept secret, but there was no way Choi Jun-ho would have known about it just because it was kept secret.

On the contrary, if you are caught carrying out a scheme, the relationship you have built up so far may be distorted.

James Reed wanted to stop just that.

“It’s so cruel.”

The world was so unfair.

If you’re going to get answers from yourself, you’ll tell yourself the truth.

Although there was no evidence, James Reed thought that Choi Jun-ho had obtained the essence of an artificial divine beast. However, if the person concerned refuses to answer, you cannot know that.

James Reed, who gained confidence in his heart, realized that this trip to Korea did more harm than good.

James Reed turned his head and felt a dog that was several times bigger than when he went to America looking at him.

The monster’s growth was definitely surprising.

When I first saw it, it was very small.

James Reed muttered while stroking the dog’s neck.

“what do you think?”

bruise!

The dog’s barking sounded like ‘What are you talking about?’

“It seems like Junho has obtained the essence of an artificial divine beast. That’s a really nice treasure. If you just let me know, I could talk about its utility for three days and nights. “It’s a shame.”

Woof woof!

James Reed, who did not know where the artificial divine beast’s essence had gone, sighed repeatedly as he stroked the dog’s neck.

* * *

The source of the information I heard from James Reed was something I had already guessed.

[Why is he so deeply involved in the human world?]

Yongyong, who had no idea, was furious and ran wild. Contrary to what I expected, I guess I thought he would keep a certain line.

However, in my opinion, Thunderbird was a human disguised as a divine beast. Now and in the future, he will continue to try to intervene in the human world.

That was annoying to my eyes.

“I don’t like it.”
