Chapter 479 – Back to Earth (19)

After the riot broke out in China, as Dojin predicted, China began to be torn apart like the era of No. 5 and 16 countries.

The government has lost its function, and each country has been watching the surroundings to swallow such China.

Naturally, most industries, including factories that used to make industrial products in China, stopped.

It was only the United States that was able to prepare for the sudden fall of the world’s great factory, but people saw it and burst into admiration, saying that it was also a heavenly country.

Whatever the process, as a result, the approval rating of the president who predicted and prevented this terrible situation in advance soared through the sky.

However, stocks around the world began to sink toward the ground in the opposite way to the approval rating——and that didn’t last long either.

“Nice to meet you, Mr. Dojin.”
“Ah.”

The president, Andrew, blinked as he saw Dojin, a ghost who appeared in front of him. I didn’t expect him to come to me like this…

At least, he had contacted me in advance saying that he would come here, so I could see that he wasn’t a rude little boy who didn’t know the world at all and acted as he pleased.

However, he did not know why he came to him while holding an appointment like that.

“May I ask why you came to see me?”
“I’m sure you know.”
“Haha- I can’t believe it. How would the US know about the thoughts of an individual?”
“Oh, is that because I’m just an individual?”
“That wasn’t my intention. Mr. Dojin is the leader of a country… No, he’s like a ruler. Excuse me.”

According to the results of profiling based on his previous appearances in Korea, Dojin was close to a man of power who pursued everyday life.

A character who has power and does not hesitate to wield it, but does not tolerate others wielding or suppressing it.

That’s why he once received a report that it would be okay if he was treated as a normal person… Andrew realized that these damned psychologists were wrong.

‘I should reduce the support or not.’

However, the fact that Andrew himself is a politician who has gone through all the hardships, and like a politician who has to quickly figure out the temper of the person in front of him and figure out how to deal with him, he was able to avoid the worst by changing his attitude right away.

Do-jin laughed inwardly as Andrew tried to understand him.

“The reason I’m here today—is because of China.”
“…Yes, Mr. Dojin. The China you destroyed.”
“Am I going to break it down?”
“Haha- the other day, you hacked into all Chinese electronics and exposed your face. And at the same time, you warned all Chinese people. The US already knows.”

This is not a situation that only happened to one individual ─ Listening to Andrew’s words, Dojin shrugged his shoulders as if asking what he was talking about.

“It wasn’t me who brought down China. It was the Chinese people themselves.”
“Hmm- I see, that’s it.”
“I don’t know what you’re thinking, but that’s exactly what I said.”

Andrew, who heard Dojin’s words, thought he was trying to avoid responsibility. Certainly, the aftermath of the storm that destroyed China was something I couldn’t dare to bear.

Conversely, from Dojin’s point of view, that was not what he meant. He only gave it a chance, and the Chinese people just took that opportunity and destroyed China.

It would have been better if the people had not eliminated the people with vested interests he spoke of – so he would have been more comfortable if he had taken the initiative himself.

Do Jin-in was thinking like this. If Andrew had known Do-jin’s heart, he would have written down the line that he had severe antisocial tendencies in his profiling file.

“Then what are you doing in China?”
“I need some land, and I would like some Chinese territory.”
“Why do you do that to us?”
“It means that the United States wants to eat some of China’s land and share it.”
“… We cannot meddle in the internal affairs of other countries.”

In modern times, interference in internal affairs is considered as bad as colonization. Considering the reputation and criticism of the international community, direct interference in internal affairs is impossible.

Of course, various powerful countries use all kinds of means to indirectly interfere in internal affairs, but that is indirect. There is no justification for leading US forces to invade China.

“What if I said something like this?”

Seeing the US president rejecting his proposal, Dojin took out one of his magic tools from his bosom. The President, who saw the object Do-jin took out, tilted his head, asking what it was.

Do-jin grinned and manipulated the magic tool and used it, and the magic built into the magic tool was demonstrated by absorbing the surrounding magic.

Seeing the shield that had formed around his body, the American president was horrified inwardly. This was a technology using mana that is currently being researched in various countries.

“It’s a very basic magic. It has the function of protecting the user’s body. Um… So-.”

Do-jin took out his pistol in the sub-space. Before the president could even be startled when he saw him pull out his handgun, sparks erupted from the muzzle of the automatic pistol.

The automatic pistol, which emptied a magazine in less than a second, gave off a little smoke and then cooled down.

“—This is possible.”
“Ha, haha- please tell me in advance from now on…”
“Would I even kill the President? Even using a gun to bother you?”

Do-jin shrugged his shoulders, saying, “Why is it necessary?” Looking at this, Andrew felt again that Dojin was different from ordinary people.

Soon after, the bodyguards who heard the gunshots burst into the president’s office, but they looked slightly embarrassed to see that there was no problem.

“President! Are you okay…”
“Who said you could come in?”
“Yes? But the gunshot just-.”
“What nonsense- I didn’t hear that. I’m in an important meeting, so get out of here.”
“…Sorry.”

After kicking out his bodyguards, the president let out a sigh, calmed his surprised heart, and looked at Dojin.

“Can you guess what that is?”
“A magic tool. So—a tool that uses magic.”
“Magic…! You know how to use magic. Is that what you mean?”
“Uh… What if it’s not a difficult magic?”

Do-jin replied that he was not a professional wizard, but only a swordsman, and that he could not even dream of difficult magic.

However, the words rather stirred the president’s heart. You’re a swordsman, so you can’t use difficult magic? Doesn’t that mean that even a swordsman knows how to use simple magic?

And that means that you don’t need very difficult conditions to learn magic, and anyone can learn magic.

“——He said he would share his magic skills with us.”
“If you want.”
“…Do you know what we will do in the Chinese land we have emptied?”
“I’m planning to bring another world here.”
“Yes?”

The president tilted his head as if he had heard wrongly. However, Do-jin reminded him again as if he had not heard it wrong.

“We will create a place on Earth that is connected to the other world.”
“What is that…”
“It will open a new world that cannot be compared to anything like China.”

Gulp- The president gulped. If things go according to what he said, if not just a country, but a new market, a new world…

“I want one thing. It’s the chairperson’s seat to coordinate opinions between the other world and Earth.”
“—Apart from that?”
“You can do whatever you want.”

The president smiled and held out his hand to Dojin.
Dojin also laughed and shook hands with the president.
The next day, American forces advanced toward China.

* * *

The actions of the United States were immediately met with condemnation from around the world.

[European Union announced that it should be alert to the actions of the United States… ]
[UN’s ‘military actions by the United States cannot be boasted’. ]
[The condemnation resolution collapsed with the opposition of the United States, the UN is useless-]

However, the United States did not care and began to invade China and occupy the continent. The justification was the stabilization of the chaotic continent and one billion people.

In reality it was not. The U.S. Forces that entered the continent drove the Chinese inland in an instant and focused on creating the land that Dojin asked for.

Foreign countries looked at it and wondered what the hell they were doing- but only after a huge portal opened in the land they created, they realized what the US was aiming for.

“Is this Earth?”

Rize was the first to set foot on Earth as a representative of another world. She frowned at the sight of the crowd of people staring at her and her camera dazzling her.

“It’s not polite… It doesn’t look like an attack.”

As Do-jin said, he asked for stronger control of the baseline from the beginning. If she, the owner of the Mage Tower, were to take the initiative, this would be the only thing.

Breathing in the magic she felt in her atmosphere, Raize immediately chanted her magic. She was able to complete great magic without difficulty thanks to her magical powers that were more abundant than in this world.

After the magic chant ended——huge shadows soared behind people’s backs.

People looked back, puzzled by the sudden shadows. And he couldn’t help but be astonished at the tower soaring high there.

“What is that…”
“Oh, didn’t you have anything?”
“You say you can make something like that in an instant?”

While reporters recklessly wrote articles and jokes while watching the magic tower, the stock prices of the builders began to plummet.

She sent tens of thousands of people to the Han River in an instant, so now she started introducing me, clearing her throat casually.

“Ma, Magical Girl Raise – Appears here!”

For reference, Do-jin ordered it.
