Chapter 337 – Harkov’s Consent

“What?!”
“I missed it! I was going to hit you, but you said it went boom and disappeared?”
“Why the hell do you always do whatever you want..!!”

After disappearing for several days and not being seen, Kim Hyun-joon was properly heated by Ha-jin’s words that he came back and said that he had invaded the cartel’s stronghold, but had missed the key figure.
If you were planning to invade the opponent’s stronghold, you should have built a stronger force and handled the plan more meticulously and perfectly.
And it wasn’t until now that he found out about Ha Jin’s plan.
Through Jin In-soo, I expected roughly what Ha-jin was thinking, but he had already left Altona, so he had no way to do anything about it.

“Thanks to you, they are now even more vigilant! We’ll hide deeper into hard-to-find places! And they could attack this place to pay for what they’ve done!”
“Then thank you~”
“You idiot!! No matter how much you are, you can’t keep an eye on all of Melbourne! That way, there will be innocent victims!”
“Anyway, Altona is safe~ I can watch here by myself.”
“So you’re saying it’s okay for other people to die?!”
“That is their destiny.”
“This bastard is real..!!”
“Captain, calm down.”
“Hyunjun oppa, calm down. And I want you to come back safely like this… “
“… “

Joo-ha, who said that it would be all right if Ha-jin returned safely, turned his head away from Kim Hyeon-joon’s staring eyes.

“Ah, but what about Jin In-soo? Isn’t that bastard still walking around as me?”
“That is… Therefore…”
“Eh…”
“… “
“Why is everyone reacting like that? What did that bastard do to me?”

People who couldn’t answer Ha-jin’s continuous questions.
This time, even Kim Hyun-joon didn’t say much, and after a while, Ha-jin headed to Melbourne to meet Jin In-soo.

“… “
“… “

Swoop-

Jin In-su, sitting face to face with Ha-jin, slightly avoids her gaze and turns her head.
Oh Seung-jin, who is sitting next to him with a big smile.

Haha~ I was able to win the election thanks to you! Thank you! When I open my eyes, suddenly there is a presidential election and then a few days later, it seems like I am dreaming~ haha”

Oh Seung-jin, whose body and mind were controlled by Eisa’s shadow, regained consciousness the day Ha-jin appeared in Bendigo, canceling Eisa’s summoning of all shadows.
And I heard from Jin In-soo, who is in the form of Ha-jin, that he was in the midst of a presidential race, and as a result of his hard campaigning, he won the presidential election.
He was elected Melbourne’s first president.

“Whoa… Okay, let’s start with an old friend. Since when do you have no memory? Are you the one who said I was your son at the start of the election?”
“No. I don’t remember at all.”
“Really?”
“It has already happened, so why should I say no? Not really.”
“Whoa, crazy… You did a good cosplay…”

Through the shadows, Eisa thoroughly monitored Hajin’s surroundings, including her behavior, tone, and personality.
Among them, there were only a few people who could take over the body with a shadow, and among them, Oh Seung-jin was the only one who would not be suspected even if his behavior became a little strange.
That’s why he borrowed Oh Seung-jin’s body to try to find out the exact power of Ha-jin, who can’t detect energy with a shadow, but as the unexpected presidential election began, Aisa decided to become the first president of Melbourne through Oh Seung-jin.
If he became president, he would not be able to wield power, but at least he would be able to acquire more information than anyone else.
Of course, if Oh Seung-jin hadn’t been caught until after he became president, he would have implemented a bigger plan.

“Anyway, old friend, why the hell do you have that trait? It’s not what you originally had.”

Jin In-soo, who was embarrassed and embarrassed by Ha-jin’s question, began to answer calmly.

“About two days after the presidential election, I got a chance to kill a rather odd-looking monster and get this trait.”

This is the characteristic that Jin In-soo has acquired.

『Chameleon (B) – Can change into the form of a target that has been killed or confirmed information.』

A really useless feature.
Surprisingly, the grade of the attribute that Jin In-soo gave up to acquire this attribute was SA.
By discarding the characteristics right below the SS rank, he chose the useless B-class characteristics.

“No, why the hell? Couldn’t it be that he chose that useless trait because he knew that Oh Seung-jin was under the shadow, knew how I would behave, and anticipated all of that?”
“Kuhm..! That… “
“Just tell me everything. Isn’t it the past anyway?”
“All right. Yeah, i’ll be honest I chose this trait to make you the first president.”
“… “

When the presidential election began, the key keyword Oh Seung-jin put forward was Ha-jin, and he was able to acquire the characteristics that can change into Ha-jin’s appearance.
That’s why Jin In-soo had no hesitation.
From Korea, Jin In-soo thought that Oh Seung-jin was the only leader who could bring Korea back to life, and he risked his life to protect Oh Seung-jin and support him.
In this way, Jin In-soo changed into Ha-jin’s appearance and campaigned with Oh Seung-jin in Melbourne, where Ha-jin left, winning public sentiment and making Oh Seung-jin the president.
Of course, that reason didn’t reach Hajin at all.

“Hey, you crazy bastard!!”
“Ouch!!”

Puck!! Puck puck!! Puck puck!!!

When Jin In-soo kicked it, he fell backwards with the sofa and rolled on the floor.

“You weak bastard! Would you give up your power to make that old man president?!”

Puck puck!!!

“That by selling my face?!”

Puck puck!!!

“That, stop! Kuk!!!”
“Look! Just search! 이 븅신 새끼야!!!”
“Chehehe!!!!”

In that way, Jin In-su achieved the desired result by making Oh Seung-jin the president, but he had to face a moment of shame that would never happen again in his life.

“Black… Hehe… Pup… “
“Stop crying… I will never forget your credit.”
“… Just upload it soon…”

Jin In-soo, who was stripped and tied with a rope to the outer wall of the building to be used as the president’s office and the new government building, became a spectacle of passers-by and shed sad tears.

***

Outskirts of Altona located outside the walls.
A secluded golf course was located here, and the people Ha-jin had caught from Bendigo are lying here and there.

“How many are there in total?”
“267 people. But what are all these people going to do? I am in very bad shape.”

After answering Ha-jin’s question, Kwon Joo-hyeok looked around and frowned.
It was also true that people who had been addicted to drugs all day couldn’t be normal because they couldn’t do drugs, eat food, or drink water for several days from Bendigo to Altona.
Even if you’re not a drug addict and generally healthy, you can’t be normal if you’ve been walking without drinking water or eating for several days.

“First of all, say water, and check the characteristics first. Ah! Other than that, don’t give me anything else to eat. Because if you go wild for no reason, there might be some riotous bastards.”
“After that?”
“Hmm… Give it to those who need it And if there are any useless ones, just leave them alone. Because I will kill you.”
“Wait a minute! But kill that person to make you stronger. Isn’t that a bit like this?”
“Why?”
“You’ll be fine, but normal people say that’s hard. Killing people for no justification or reason.”
“Seriously, is there anyone who still insists on that?”
“There is.”
“They do a lot of shit… If you feel uncomfortable, hang it somewhere and tell them to cut the line. If you can’t see it falling, it won’t be okay~”
“… Cruel bastard…”

Kwon Joo-hyeok, who muttered as he watched Ha-jin turn around, started to check the characteristics of the cartel that had been taken hostage as Ha-jin ordered, along with the guards who helped figure out the number of people.
Meanwhile, Ha-jin, who entered the club house of the golf course, walked to the farthest corner of the wide lobby.

Rattling-

Sitting in the corner, covered with a blanket, head trembling, and Hajin staring down at it.

“… “
“Wow, come! Master?! Ahhh… Long time no see!”
“Damn it. Were you together two hours ago?”
“That, Gla? Khehehe… I don’t have a sense of time, kid~ Khehehe… “
“… Why are you talking like that?”
“Do you like my tone?”
“… No. I’ll think the drug addict is just crazy.”
“Ugh… Kaaak!! Wow!!”

The head of the body spit out a lot of phlegm, scratching the blanket that covers the body.
It must be Hajin’s misunderstanding that it looks like the main character in a movie.

“My… My… My body is too cold… I am shivering and in pain..!”
“Whatever.”
“No, if… If I die later… You shouldn’t pretend you didn’t know, Master..!”
“Don’t worry. At that time, I will pretend to know and kill you.”
“… Kaaak!! Wow!!”
“… “

Glancing up at Ha-jin and gathering a lot of her phlegm, Dae-ri turned her head to see if she was at least sane and spit it out, then turned her head to Ha-jin again and said.

“Lord, Master…! I have a request for you!”
“Shall we go to Hawaii?”
“Hawaii..?”
“No. What?”
“My… Poetry, even if you save just one heart! I don’t eat people’s hearts… The snout is wide open! Ugh… Kyaaak!! Wow!!”

Ha-jin, who knelt down on one knee, turned her head and placed her hand on the shoulder of her spitting head.

“Head.”
“Wow, wow..? Will you save me…?”
“Thank you. Mai muta child.”
“Fuck, no! Rip off her snout… “
“What?”
“Lord, master… I’m sick… Withdrawal symptoms… It’s because I’m crazy..!”
“That word saved you.”
“Thank you, master..! Khehehe… “

Dae-ri, who is suffering from withdrawal symptoms, was treated by Ida-sol, who brought her just in case, but her condition did not improve.
From now on, it is time to overcome it completely alone.
Of course, there were other easier ways…

“Amy says she can treat drug addicts!”
“Is that person abnormal? They say it has the ability to release things like that.”
“Then take him and go to Gary quickly!”
“For a moment. Just let it be.”
“Yes?”
“Why?!”
“Don’t you feel sorry for Gary?!”
“You have to go through hardships once to never take medicine again.”

Ha-jin didn’t take her to Dae-ri, even though she found out that there is a person with the ability to cure drug addicts.
I wanted to take this opportunity to let people know that if you pick up anything, you will get sick.

〈 Jakarta, Indonesia 〉

A mega city with a population of 10 million and a metropolitan area of ​​30 million.
A passenger plane from Bendigo arrived at Soekarno Hatta International Airport in Jakarta.

“Ah, I’m tired…”

Aaron Vargas got off the plane with a face full of boredom rather than tiredness.
Aaron, the cartel’s second-in-command after Harkov, the first man, shook his head as he looked around the airport, where no monsters were seen alive.

“Ugh… It’s awful, it’s awful.”

There are no living monsters, but an airport full of monster corpses.
The airport, where all the zombies and monsters that act as cleaners are corpses, is filled with a stinging stench.
So Aaron, who brought a portable oxygen respirator to his mouth and his nose, ran quickly out of the airport, but the entire city of Jakarta was filled with dead bodies.
In a word, the whole city is a kind of huge tomb.

‘Where the hell did you go?’

I confirmed that a small private plane rather than a passenger plane was parked on the runway.
That means the person Aaron is looking for is still in Jakarta.

Flinch!

‘It’s over there.’

Aaron, who flinched at the death penalty that seemed to cut his throat at the moment, changed direction and ran toward the place where he felt the death penalty, and there stood Harcob del Toro, the man Aaron kicked.

“Boss, wait a minute… “

Swoop-

A man blocks Aaron’s way towards Harkov.
He is one of the Five Powers of Hakov’s personal guard.

“I can’t meet the boss right now. Wait a minute, Aaron.”
“Who are you blocking now?”
“… “
“… “

As if there were sound effects, the energy and life of the two rising so strongly that a throbbing sound would resonate.
But then, the other four guards surrounded Aaron and began to kill themselves.

“These bastards are real..!”

Aaron is strong.
Because it’s a man that Hakov recognized.
But the five SS were also strong.
Because while Aaron was staying in Australia, he and Harkov traveled to many countries and fought and fought again and again.
The moment when the energies emitted by the six people intertwine with each other, creating an immediate situation.

“Aaron.”
“… “
“Go away.”

Aaron, blocking his way at the voice calling for him and pushing aside one of his bodyguards, moved towards the unkempt Harkov.

‘Fuck… How far can you get stronger…?’

The aura that naturally radiated from Harkov, who was constantly getting stronger rather than stopping at a certain level, made even James before he lost his powers afraid of Aaron, who looked down at his feet to say let’s just kill him.

“What is going on?”
“I was curious about when he would come, and I had something to report.”
“Go back and wait. Until I return.”
“Okay. And one piece of news, James lost. Kang Ha-jin is Korean, but I think he’s a bit stronger than James. Can I kill you?”
“… “

Hakov stares at Aaron’s question with indifferent eyes without answering it.
And after a while, Hakov’s head nodded.
