Episode 382 – Academy (29)

Jang Mun-geol, the head of King Myeong’s personal guard.

He was sitting in his office and closed his eyes. He leaned back on the large chair as if he were tired and opened his mouth.

“What happened to the newly appointed mayor of Sichuan Province?”
“…He was dragged to the square and beaten to death by the people.”

“What are the SS troops sent along doing?”

“Baek A-yeon was killed by the beastman and Choi Si-woo. In particular, Choi Si-woo even publicly declared, ‘I am not afraid of King Myeong.’ Because of him, his authority is being undermined.”

The subordinate, who glanced at me, continued his report.

“And… The rioters who occupied Sichuan Province went so far as to declare independence. It’s not uncommon for other cities to notice this as well. “If we leave it alone, I think it will follow Sichuan Province’s lead and declare independence.”

Wow.

Jang Moon-geol, a tendon appeared on his chin. He waved his hand with a stiff expression.

“I get it. “I have something to think about, so get out.”
“Yes.”

In a quiet office. As he tapped the table and pondered, he slowly opened his eyes.

“Haha… I can’t help it now.”

He stood up with a sigh and tapped the wall.

Jiing!

The wall full of murals slowly opened, and I stood on a magic circle in a hidden space.

Light emanated from the blue pattern, and we arrived at a cave that was blocked on all sides.

Grumbling.

A drop of sweat flowed from Jang Moon-geol’s forehead. Before he knew it, the back of his head became damp with cold sweat.

“···Gulp.”

The sound of swallowing echoes in the quiet cave. His neck was constantly shaking.

He looked extremely nervous, uncharacteristic of an 8-star superhuman.

Jeopuk… Jeokbuk…

The slow pace continued, and before we knew it, the air temperature began to soar sharply.

“Whoa.”

He wiped the sweat from his forehead and licked his dry lips.

How long did you walk with a cautious attitude?

‘Ah!’

We arrived at an underground cavity filled with glowing lava.

It was no ordinary place.

Hehe!

A fever so hot that even an 8-star superhuman would be cooked if he were to let his guard down. Sharp stone fragments became daggers and flew everywhere.

Jang Moon-geol, whose fingertips were trembling slightly, lowered his head. He bowed towards the communal center with a mixture of respect and nervousness.

Bubbling.

In the middle of a lake made of lava.

A round land floating like an island. He bowed towards the stone statue of an old man sitting above him.

“Ah, great king!”

Chi-i-ik…!

I fell flat on the floor, not caring about getting burned by the hot floor. They began to show extreme respect as if they were worshiping a god.

After bowing for over 10 minutes, I could barely open my lips.

“I’m so sorry for interrupting your training! I am so sorry to say this, but problems have arisen in China due to the incompetence of subordinates. Robbers made up of the beast people occupied Sichuan Province…”

As if praying. He reported to the statue one after another about the situation in China.

How much time has passed? By the time Jang Moon-geol’s skin turned red.

Push!

The moment the statue became incontinent. His expression was filled with joy.

Before we knew it, even the swirling fever had died down and there was silence everywhere.

Where all the noise has disappeared.

“Ah… Little creatures who know nothing… Don’t know the only way to live and are struggling to escape. “It’s truly unfortunate.”

A voice cracked like a dry tree rang out.

***

I and the revolutionary army turned the anger built up against the Chinese people onto the government. To put it simply, it was a witch hunt.

It wasn’t particularly difficult. It was enough to just spread their behavior on the Internet.

-Eh. Is this roasted piglet? What’s so tough? Throw it away with the guy who cooked it.
Haha. I like you bitch. Come here!

From extravagant food thrown away like trash to orgy parties. Still, it was a tolerable line up to this point.

-Aaaaah!
-Sa, please save me!

However, it was not a hunting game. The sight of not only slaves but also innocent people being kidnapped and hunted was truly shocking.

The Chinese people exploded at the excessive behavior.

“Kill! “Kill them!”

Those who sacrificed their loved ones for mere entertainment went on to attack high-ranking people.

Naturally, he joined the revolutionary army and its size grew rapidly.

The anger that would have originally been directed at the Chinese, the beast people, and each other was directed directly at the government.

Government hackers belatedly tried to control the media, but to no avail. Track them down with the help of the revolutionary army. I went there myself and swept it all away.

As a result.

“We, Hunan Province, will also take our own path!”

After the declaration of independence of Sichuan Province. Local cities that had been paying attention rose up one by one.

“The king is already dead. “The proof is that they are not taking action even though the situation has reached this point.”

At that time, the existence of King Myeong, who was oppressing everyone, was becoming increasingly blurred.

The Chinese government issued its final notice.

[I will show you my final mercy. The rioters must surrender now and face the law. The heavenly punishment that King Myeong will inflict is not far away.]

It meant that if you don’t want to die, you should step back and bow your head right away. However, this remark had the opposite effect.

The government’s warning was accepted as a pretentious bluff.

“Kill the incompetent chairman!”

The flames of revolution spread everywhere. It burned brightly like a flame on dry grass.

“We, Shandong Province, will also become independent!”
“The same goes for Hubei Province!”

Declarations of independence continued endlessly throughout China. China, which boasted of being a great country, was divided into dozens of city-states.

A time of confusion.

There were some people who wanted to seize hegemony by starting a war, and I personally visited those people of interest.

Quang!

They destroyed the meaningless guards, caught the warmonger who was inciting the fight behind the scenes, and interrogated him.

“Well, I just did what I was told… Huh!?”

“Who ordered it?”
“···Yes?”

“I’m asking who told me to start a war.”
“Yes, that’s you.”

As we killed those who tried to escalate the conflict, the traces of the apostle naturally became clear.

‘It is clear that the apostle and the commentator meet regularly.’

Chairman, China’s supreme leader. He gave consistent orders in the direction of escalating the conflict.

There was no intention to resolve the situation. Not a normal ruler. It was clear that he had a connection with the apostle.

All that remains is to find the location of the hidden annotation.

Ji-ing!

-[Baek A-yeon]: We found the location of the bunker suspected to be where Joo-seong is located.

Just then, the revolutionary army sent 5 coordinates. It seemed like I got the information while working in a different area than I did.

It was good news. It seemed like I would be able to find the tin before long.

‘Not much left.’

I spread the map out on the table. When choosing the next location to attack.

Geomseon Meilin approached and held out a letter.

“What is this?”
“It’s about you, so see for yourself.”

When she read the letter she held out, she realized it was a threat from the Chinese government.

It was long, but to roughly summarize the content, it was as follows.

[Inspection. If you don’t capture Choi Si-woo and offer him up, I will erase Geomlim from the map.]

I filled her pot with herbal medicine and looked at her staring at me. She didn’t show any particular hostility. It was just an expression of annoyance.

Phew…

She shrugged her shoulders as she let out her bittersweet smoke.

“If you are in trouble, I will run amok and run away from Geomnim. “If we say we failed to catch him, would you go so far as to bomb him?”

“Done. “Geomlim is my land, so I have no reason to follow whatever they say.”
“Um… Have you decided to be hostile to the government?”

Has she finally decided to antagonize the government after maintaining her neutrality so far?

“Joy. What is the decision? “She just didn’t like the rude instructions.”

She clicked her tongue as if she was just annoyed, but a choice was a choice. With today’s decision, the government will treat Geomlim as rebels.

She muttered as she looked at the lakeside with her brow furrowed.

“···I have to get all my disciples to leave. “You can’t force him to fight.”

She puffed her chest and let out a sigh. Her burden and frustration, and even the slight sense of liberation felt in one corner of her face.

I could feel all kinds of emotions from the smoke leaking from my red lips.

‘I never thought Meirin would protect her loyalty like this.’

Of course, because of the great antipathy towards the government, they may have decided to be hostile, but the fact that they took my side did not change.

Isabel commented that Geom-seon was a trustworthy person. She really did.

“Actually, I… Um?”

That’s when I made a decision in my mind and removed my mouth from hers.

The distance is so far that my sense of energy barely touches me. There I began to feel outright hostility.

Googungung!

Five 8-star superhumans. They openly showed off their presence and quickly became closer.

Meilin, who realized it a beat later than me, paused. He stared at the distant sky and narrowed his eyebrows.

“Are they…?”

Soon, four sons and one daughter came within sight. It was easy to recognize who they were because they were famous in China.

‘Is that guy the captain of the Royal Guard?’

The leading man was Zhang Wenjie, the head of King Ming’s personal guard, and the other four were the owners of the largest wall protecting China.

Jang Moon-geol, who was flying towards him while holding his back, lifted his chin arrogantly.

“Huh. The relationship between the two still seems really good… Did I see it correctly? Inspection. “Can I assume that you have ignored the government’s orders?”

I ignored Meilin as if she was already dead and just looked at her face and spoke in an arrogant manner, as if a superior was showing her mercy.

“I’ll give you my last chance. “If we catch Choi Si-woo and offer him up now, we can preserve the name Geomlim intact-“

Every detail, every detail. He had a cocky expression. So much so that I want to carve a knife mark into it.

···

So I engraved it.

“Gagging!?”

Sigh! The skin was torn and blood spurted out. Jang Moon-geol, who barely survived by twisting his back, glared at me.

“You bastard…!”

The noble attitude seemed to have disappeared. It’s only natural that my face was cut off by my sword.

Grumbling.

Blood dripped from the vertically cracked cheek. I was satisfied with the expression on his face, which was distorted like a murderer.

“Tsk tsk.”

The blood-covered appearance looked so good that I couldn’t help but laugh. He flicked his sword as if he was joking and grinned.
