Chapter 748 – Jo Dong-Geun Past Version (1)
“That’s it.”
“Interesting? “Tell me more about it.”
It was difficult to guess Lee Soo-hee’s expression when she said she was interested.
But I decided to boldly go out anyway, so I spoke without worrying about it.
“A former celebrity? “With the doctor?”
When she talked about Kim Tae-ri and Lee Chae-ah, she didn’t really react, but when she talked about the doctor, she flinched.
“Do you know?”
“Yeah… He’s doing well these days. I also like the brand that she is a model for. Um…”
I felt like the atmosphere was getting strange, but since I started the story anyway, I told it all without ending it half-heartedly.
“What? Jo Dong-geun?”
Naturally, when the story of Jo Dong-geun came out, Lee Soo-hee couldn’t help but be agitated.
She already knew that Seo Na-yeon and I were involved.
But the issue of Jo Dong-geun was different.
There was a problem with a person who could be said to be his subordinate, and that was why we met.
Moreover, I even called him to come to the hotel.
I asked as I watched Lee Soo-hee getting deeper into the water.
“Do you know anything about Jo Dong-geun?”
In a sense, I knew Jo Dong-geun better than Lee Soo-hee.
But that was a story based on the future, and I didn’t know what Jo Dong-geun was like at the moment.
I thought things would come out when we met, but it would have been good to get some information before that.
“Yeah, a little… Our guild leader tried to get under that person.”
I thought of the guild leader, now a eunuch, who came to Lee Soo-hee’s apartment.
“You mean it wasn’t successful?”
“Yes, Jo Dong-geun is a more difficult person than you think. “It was stricter before.”
“Are you strict?”
“He refused to accept any lobbying or gifts sent to him. “I don’t even try to be friendly.”
“So…?”
It was a story that was far from the Jo Dong-geun I knew.
In this respect, he was almost like an incarnation.
It was impossible to discuss Jo Dong-geun without mentioning his desire for power.
“But after being left alone, the person changed.”
“Are you left alone?”
“Strictly speaking, I’m not alone. Because Seo Na-yeon is there. But Seo Na-yeon has just awakened, and she is a bit of a unique girl. “She is considered unexpected even in the industry.”
While saying those words, Soohee Lee looked at me intently.
The face asked if you knew better, so I pretended not to know.
“From Jo Dong-geun’s perspective, he must have felt betrayed. I had a good relationship with other S-class hunters and followed them well. But without saying anything, he naturalized and became a foreigner. He suddenly felt like he was left behind. He must have felt a great burden due to his personality. Because his scattered attention is focused only on himself. People in the industry know. Since he doesn’t have much to expect from Seo Na-yeon, he has to put Jo Dong-geun in line. Jo Dong-geun himself probably knows. He knows that he can’t survive on this floor unless he gets his bearings. If you say drugs…”
“What if that happens?”
“He could die. Even if he is S-class, he is no exception.”
I have experienced the same thing myself.
He called an assassin from abroad and tried to kill me.
The same thing might happen.
If something like that happens, the degree of foreign interference in Korea will probably increase.
It was an unfortunate event that could be said to be terrible for the people of the Republic of Korea, but of course there were people who benefited from the process.
‘The past is the same.’
No, the situation is much worse than the future.
I was not familiar with Jo Dong-geun in an underdog position.
The awakening of new S-class hunters was a matter of the future.
Other S-class hunters I know.
Based on Lee Soo-hee’s words, it means that Jo Dong-geun endured alone until then.
As Lee Soo-hee mentioned, Seo Na-yeon is not a woman who can be easily controlled.
She knows that her abilities are not great, so it must not have been easy for her.
There must have been pressure from those around him.
There is basically no entity that can threaten an S-class hunter, but the story is different if a foreign government or a foreign S-class hunter is on the line.
‘Japan’s annoying organization…’
Even at this point, the same organization or a similar organization would be working hard.
The same goes for other countries.
Unlike the future where there was some degree of order, it was obvious that the current situation would be much messier.
It will be a time when a power struggle takes place and hegemony comes and goes.
What choice did Jo Dong-geun have to make to survive?
I don’t want to sympathize with him.
It was difficult for even me to understand the story that he had no choice but to become a villain.
But it was clear that it was different from what I thought.
Because anyone can change depending on their environment.
“Maybe the story will turn out well.”
Lee Soo-hee said something unexpected.
“With Jo Dong-geun?”
“Yes, because I am a person with common sense. Rather, the government and the lower part of it are rotten. They are desperate to use Jo Dong-geun. After listening to the story, it seems that Jo Dong-geun is also slowly reacting.”
Lee Soo-hee drank carbonated water with a bitter face.
After listening to my story, I was able to make that judgment.
The hunter who harassed Bakjarang.
Because Jo Dong-geun was now being called ‘hyungnim’ by him.
“Hmm…”
I thought about it calmly.
Jo Dong-geun’s abilities.
His abilities as a hunter will be nothing compared to the future.
Above all, he does not have Jo A-young, who can be said to be his professional buffer.
However, looking at his achievements in the future, it was difficult to say that he was absolutely incapable.
In any case, it could not be denied that he had joined hands with evildoers to achieve his success.
Even so, in the process of actually taking power and strengthening it, he showed his own abilities.
‘If he was Jo Dong-geun before he turned black.’
Couldn’t I use that ability?
My goal after returning was to live as leisurely and enjoyable a life as possible.
I also had a desire to meet women I had not met in my previous life and have a happy time.
I thought it would be a very comfortable result if I could leave the troublesome work to Jo Dong-geun and have him do it for me.
In my past life, I was inevitably at the forefront.
Because there was nothing I could do about the flow.
A lot of fights broke out and a lot of energy had to be wasted in the process.
‘If only there was someone who could do that instead of me.’
It occurred to me that the evildoers did not increase their subordinates for no reason.
It’s convenient to have someone to move for me.
‘I can’t believe it yet.’
I couldn’t judge everything based on Lee Soo-hee’s words alone.
You would have to meet Jo Dong-geun in person to find out what kind of person he is at this point.
“Well, it’s good if we can communicate well.”
Suhee Lee nodded at my words.
“It was good of you to help me, Dr. I don’t know what would have happened if I had left it alone. “I’ve seen too much of that.”
The bitterness in her expression deepened.
I finished eating with Lee Soo-hee.
After filling my stomach, I felt like my slightly dazed mind was coming back.
Would you say I’ve had sex with too many women in a row these past few days?
I wasn’t physically exhausted, but I was a little out of it.
In my past life, I once dealt with 50 women at once.
Certainly, compared to back then, the ability is much lower now.
I went to the living room and started working.
I’m meeting Cho Dong-geun tomorrow, and even if he isn’t the same person as Mirae, I need the minimum safety measures.
I don’t know what caused his corruption, but he was a person who had the potential to become corrupted when he gained power.
At least I needed a safety device that wouldn’t bother me.
I took out the amulet book.
I was thinking of making some changes to the amulet I originally had.
Because witchcraft is an ability with a large theoretical weight, it can be used even if you do not have a certain amount of mana.
My magic abilities were higher than those of the magicians I knew.
However, unless he had that mana, he could not fully demonstrate that knowledge and ability.
Lee Soo-hee was impressed when she saw me concentrating on the amulet.
“What is that? “That’s the ability I used at home, right?”
“Huh. It’s witchcraft.”
“Witchcraft?”
Lee Soo-hee had a face that I was hearing for the first time.
“How many abilities do you have?”
The story of how I acquired my magical abilities was complicated.
Soohee Lee was very accepting of my abilities, so she would understand if I told her that I also have the abilities of a woman I have sex with.
But since I returned, I have never had sex with a shaman.
It was difficult to convince someone who had just awakened to use a seemingly complex ability.
Instead, something suddenly occurred to me, so I asked.
“Sister, do you know any shaman?”
“Shaman?”
Lee Soo-hee made a blank expression and then shook her head.
“Not at all.”
“Um, okay.”
I didn’t know that it was absurd to ask someone who didn’t even know what witchcraft was if they knew a witch doctor.
“Are you trying to have sex with a female shaman…?”
Lee Soo-hee furrowed her eyebrows and looked upset.
“Oh, no. That’s not it…”
“What isn’t it?”
“Sorry. “I need to focus now…”
I quickly covered myself to avoid the atmosphere becoming cold.
