Chapter 1207 – [The Changing World]
Keter’s popularity in the United States was good from the beginning, but skyrocketed after an apology for fan service. Although he did not show his face, he imprinted his existence on them by scattering apples he had grown himself.
I saw a horizon of taste by tasting Keter’s apple, which had a taste that negated all the apples I had ever eaten. Thanks to that, the front of the hotel is the gate.
Keter, who was happy to see them, was invited back to the White House and received honorary citizenship. The awarding ceremony, which was attended by many prestigious figures, was attended by not only American politicians, but also ambassadors from various countries and businessmen from the embassy.
“From today, Miss Keter is both a Korean and an American citizen.”
[To be honest, I’m kind of wondering how I can get this. The procedure for this would be difficult, but give it to someone whose past is uncertain.]
“Let’s just say there was a guarantee from Mrs. Hannon.”
[Ah, is it Zion?]
Kether’s past is not on this Earth. Even if Shion couldn’t create something that didn’t exist, even if he could create a status, he couldn’t create the past.
There’s no way America wouldn’t know that… On the one hand, it’s questionable, but this is the result of weighing Zion’s assurances and the benefits of making Keter an American.
In any case, Keter received American citizenship while in the United States. Putting everything else aside, I prefer not to have to get a US visa in the future, but considering the merits she will have in the future, she is also an advantage.
After completing her schedule in the US, Keter departed for Norway. Now that he is both an American and an American, he tried to arrange a private plane in the United States as a VIP, but he refused and left for Norway because he already had a private plane lent to him in Korea.
Even if it is Sweden, there is only one Nobel laureate who visits Norway, so there were many people waiting for Keter to greet him. This is no different from the US.
[All people are the same]
“Keter!!! Keter!!!!”
“Congratulations on winning the Peace Prize!!!!”
“Welcome to Norway!!!!”
However, unlike the United States, this place had a strong feeling of purely welcoming a Nobel laureate. As Norway is a country that awards the Nobel Peace Prize, the trend may have been that way.
Soon after, Keter headed for the hotel where he would be staying. Had she been in Sweden, she would have had time to talk to other Nobel laureates, but she is the only Nobel laureate in this country.
After receiving the peace prize here, she takes a little rest and goes straight to Sweden. It’s a tight schedule, but considering it’s two Nobel Prizes, it’s worth it.
When she arrived to receive her Nobel Prize in earnest, unlike the United States, she had no time to rest. Not only the Norwegian newspapers, but also the mass media from her world rushed towards her.
She can’t ignore them all this far, so she spends some time answering their questions.
“Keter, how do you feel about winning the Nobel Peace Prize?”
[Happy. On the other hand, I also feel that my efforts have been rewarded. It’s good now, but at that time I just thought we should stop the virus from causing great damage to mankind.]
“This time, you achieved the double crown by winning the Physiology or Medicine Award. What do you think about that part?”
[Honestly, I wonder if I can accept it. Even if I supply raw materials, it would be better for other people who research and develop them to receive them, but I’m a little embarrassed]
“The total prize money for the two prizes, the Peace Prize and the Physiology or Medicine Prize, is two million dollars. It’s a small amount compared to Mr. Keter’s wealth, but do you have any money to spend?”
[Well, I want to buy land]
“Is it real estate?”
[No, I want to farm. I haven’t even thought about where to live yet]
Even if Keter has a lot of money, he has nowhere to spend it. It should be used for economic revitalization, but human material things have no meaning to Keter.
So the only thing left is to buy land and cultivate it. The prize money of the Nobel Prize is 2 million dollars. It’s about 2 billion Korean won, so from Keter’s point of view, it’s enough money to decorate a small garden.
Having been bothered by the reporters, Keter returned to the hotel and collapsed. I’m not physically tired, but I’m mentally tired to do an interview while keeping my image.
After her visit to the Norwegian Nobel Committee, which selected her as her laureate, her face will shine on her face, and she will meet her King and Queen of Norway, who will present her award at her ceremony, and share her talk.
“Congratulations on the award, Miss Keter.”
[Thank you]
Norway is a constitutional monarchy like the UK. There is a king and he has authority, but he does not wield that authority and governs the country with democracy, so the royal family is only symbolic.
But that doesn’t mean the Queen of England is infamous, so neither is the King of Norway. No, on the other hand, she was more famous in a way because her face was often shown in the media through her Nobel Prize win.
The King of Norway and her queen are both elderly and treat Keter as if they were granddaughters, but the other side does not know that Keter has a different number of years. There was no need to reveal it, and she wouldn’t believe it, so Keter graciously accepted the treatment.
“Times are changing. The world has now begun to accept people with supernatural powers as part of it. The fact that this Nobel Prize winner has supernatural powers means that the world has recognized you.”
[Well………]
“This award is proof of Lady Keter’s good deeds, but it is also the fact that humanity recognizes people with special abilities. I hope you will understand that.”
[Yes, I understand]
As for the age itself, there must be a lot of Keter. However, for Keter, who has lived most of her life only in Nature Garden and has acquired her personality relatively recently, her social experience is more competitive.
Don’t listen to what someone younger than you is saying. If there is something to accept, accept it and adapt. It is not the strong or the smartest creatures that survive the most in nature, but the ones that adapt quickly.
Keter, who had been so busy, had her awards ceremony day dawning in earnest before she knew it.
[Finally, it’s D-Day!!!!]
As it was an important day, there were many things to prepare, so Keter got up early in the morning and started preparing.
Washing is basic, but Keter added a little more trim to her corolla atop her own head. If there are any that stick out, she cuts them off and reshapes them a bit.
But she said that the end of the tuning was pure, and in the end she liked the original one the most. After agonizing for about an hour, Keter, who eventually returned to his original state, added to it, instead of acting as a perfume, he controlled the collection emanating from his body.
Lu-Beana is a transcendental species that resembles humans in appearance, but is actually more plant-like. Even in the same cherry tree, it was a simple task to change the harvest, just as peaches and plums have different scents.
[Hmm, let’s change it to something neater to match the clothes. I’d rather have a subtle, hazy sweet scent than a strong one]
Keter brought two dresses for the Nobel Prize ceremony. One set was quite revealing, but the other was a dress that gave off a youthful feel.
Of course, if it were another award, I would receive something like the Peace Prize, but that’s a bit too much to wear a dress with an openly sexy concept. So I purposely matched two dresses.
If I even put on a dress and decorated it, the rest was makeup. Keter knew very little about this, so it was done through a separate makeup team.
“What color would be good for lipstick? Mr. Keter’s hair is green, so I think it would look better with a contrasting red color.”
[Hmm… Then I wonder if only the lips are showing. Please write in a slightly lighter color]
“Then, do you like this or this one more?”
[This one]
Likewise, the makeup alone took 2 hours. It took longer because Keter’s looks were too good to touch, even for the pros in the industry.
Even at least the result is a feeling of slightly polishing the original plate without touching it, so you can see the hard work of the makeup artists.
But it was worth it. Fully armed, Keter is so beautiful and innocent that her short stature is not noticeable, and she boasts her beauty, exuding the feeling of a single white flower blooming in a field.
[Oh, that’s pretty. Thanks for your efforts]
“Thank you……..”
The make-up artist sat in a corner and took a rest as if it had been burned in white. It’s because I put my whole body into it for two hours and showed off my skills.
I did everything I had to do. The rest is just attending the awards ceremony.
In a limousine sent separately by the committee, Keter headed for the awards ceremony. Her tinting is so you can’t see inside from the outside, but those who know that her Keter is in her limousine greet her with cheers.
“Quaaaaagh!!! Keter!!!!”
“Congratulations on the award!!!!”
“Show me your face just once!!!!!”
The awards ceremony hall we arrived at was like a concert hall, where a red carpet was laid from the entrance, just like an imaginary place where celebrities walked.
Those who have already arrived first are being bombarded with flashes by reporters. There is only one Kether who receives it, but many more are invited.
Soon Keter got out of her limousine.
“Five……..”
“Ah…..!!!!”
The reporters who had been waiting for a moment forgot the purpose of taking pictures and admired Keter’s beauty while exclaiming.
A light green dress that fits her petite frame well enough to not be a flaw. On the contrary, such a figure revealed a childlike innocence, like a fairy in the forest.
Moreover, the beautifully decorated and made-up beauty and the mysteriously hanging garland on her head sway and sprinkle the surroundings with subtle sweetness.
No reporter could talk to or take a picture of Kether until it passed in front of her own nose. She only came to her senses when her back was turned away.
Transcendental beauty has its own effect. What can be compared to Kether today is only Zion or Eden on this earth.
[Thank you all for coming. Then see you inside]
Keter, who passed by without questioning her, greeted her and entered the ceremony hall. Reporters who missed her right in front of her nose would later complain about her to her boss, but that’s nothing to worry about.
As can be seen from the exterior of the building, which resembles a concert hall, the inside of the award ceremony hall was divided into a circular stage in front and audience seats surrounding it.
Kether’s place is on the stage. Except for the seat of the Norwegian royal family or the seat of an official of the Norwegian Nobel Committee, which she awards herself, there is only one chair left. That’s Keter’s.
Just because she came, she doesn’t go up on stage right away. Because it’s not the time yet.
[It’s starting soon]
But it will start soon. Keter waited patiently until then.
* * *
Wherever you go, the order of awards ceremony is the same. Even for the Nobel Prize, in the end, it wasn’t much different from the elementary school ceremony. At best, there are only a few things added to it.
When the awards ceremony begins, officials come up on the stage and take their seats. Keter sat in the front row seat, the one with only one. Her will is a little big compared to her size, so the fact that her feet are off the ground is a cute point.
Introduction of guests and officials who visited. The awards ceremony begins in earnest only after introducing the Norwegian royal family and committee officials.
“Everyone gathered here will remember. A virus caused by one country’s unconscionable behavior spread throughout the world, and soon humanity fell into despair through it. “
Everyone knows that it refers to the Changzhou virus.
And I also know that she was able to overcome the virus thanks to Keter being here.
“However, one psychic saved mankind. She saved us from a virus crisis that could have killed tens of millions, no, billions of people around the world. Not only that, but she also suggested a new direction for humanity to move forward.”
People’s eyes turn to Kether.
Keter, on the other hand, smiled lightly and listened quietly. She will soon know that it is her turn.
“I would like to thank all the guests who gathered at the presenting of the Nobel Peace Prize today. I have also awarded this award to many individuals or organizations, but today I think it is even more special.”
Soon after, the president of the Nobel Committee, who was giving a speech from her podium, called her.
“Miss Keter? Please come forward.”
Lightly, pulling up the hem of her dress, Keter stood up and headed toward the podium.
The King and Queen of Norway soon came out with medals with Nobel’s face, along with plaques to be presented to the winners. Then he puts the plaque in her hand and hangs the medallion around her neck.
“Congratulations on the award”
[Thank you, King]
Soon after receiving the award, applause like thunder pours out.
It wasn’t just a matter of getting into the mood, it was a heartfelt applause. The people gathered here are also people who have been affected by the Changzhou virus, big or small, and have been able to overcome it thanks to Keter, so they are all the more emotional.
It seems that the awards ceremony is almost over as there is no one else to receive the award, but one procedure still remains.
It’s the winner’s acceptance speech. At that, Kether went out in front of the concession platform and stood in front of the people. Next to her is a screen that will show her words separately as text.
[First of all, thank you to all of you who have helped us overcome this virus crisis today. I also did something, but without giving up or despairing, the world has been able to return to its original state as much as you have tried to restore the original society]
If you openly say that you are good, you will only live in antipathy. Kether, first of all, did not give credit to her own, but also to others.
It’s not entirely a lie. It would have been difficult for Keter alone to stop this virus outbreak. The people who work in the Garden of Eden, the transporters, and other corporations…. There are many people who have helped.
[I thought I would receive it, but now that I receive it like this, I wonder if it’s a dream. If it’s a dream, I don’t want to wake up.]
A light laugh is heard at her simple joke. The atmosphere that was slightly stiff is relieved.
Keter, who waited until the laughter stopped after a brief atmosphere, continued.
[At first, there was no other purpose or intention, just the thought of preventing the virus. With the help of my acquaintances, I prevented the virus crisis and received such an honorable award for that work, so the weight feels different. I think I should be different as well]
Keter showed off the Nobel Prize medal hanging around her neck.
Because of the distance, even the people sitting in the seats closest to the stage can hardly see it, but there is no one here who doesn’t know what it is.
[Now, the virus crisis is almost over. There are still big problems, but I think they will be solved with time]
Some thought of North Korea. However, North Korea was currently thoroughly quarantined.
Numerous navies from neighboring countries, as well as the neighboring state of Manchukuo, were monitoring to ensure that not a single infected person escaped from North Korea. Even if you escape as a North Korean defector, the virus is prevented from spreading under strict quarantine, and if you do not follow the instructions, you are allowed to be killed.
I think it’s inhuman behavior, but it had to be. If the virus spreads again, mankind will face an unbearable disaster.
[If the virus situation is really over, I would like to contribute to world peace in other ways after that. Oh, it’s not like making a new drug. It’s such a field of physiology or medicine, but it’s a bit like talking at the place where you receive the peace prize]
Laughter comes out as before. Everyone didn’t know that Keter even received an award for Physiology or Medicine, so it was taken as a joke.
Soon, Kether gradually developed plans to contribute to world peace in the future.
[Currently, this planet is being destroyed. As the temperature rises, the Arctic glacier is melting, and prices are soaring due to abnormal weather. These phenomena are problems that arise when human beings develop and do not consider the environment]
The gentle atmosphere that had been present until recently disappeared in the serious story.
Many people focus on her story. Or even just looking at her appearance, interest is important now.
[I have no right to stop human progress. But nature has a right to protect. So, if the virus crisis is completely over, I would like to plant trees in the desert and do an environmental cleanup project to purify the contaminated area]
“Oh oh….!!!”
“Hmm…”
Shows a variety of reactions. Some people genuinely admire and admire the impact of Keter’s ability and such aspirations, while others calculate the changes and gains and losses that will occur there.
Either way is good. After all, if you block such a Keter, the only thing that will return is the polluted Earth. After all, they will have to join Keter later.
[At that time, you will need a lot of help. So please lend me a hand in the future]
Keter bowed her head to the people.
It was not only a request she made to the guests attending the awards ceremony, but also a request she gave to people around the world who would be watching the awards ceremony.
Whether it will work or not remains to be seen, but Keter believes it will.
Near the end of her acceptance speech, Keter tried to get down from the podium as if she had just remembered, but then got back into her stance.
[Ah, I have one last thing to tell you!]
If what I said earlier was about people all over the world, this time it was very personal.
Someone specific. To be precise, that’s what Keter says to the worst family he’s ever been in.
[We are Groot.!!!!!]
It was an aside that Eden burst out laughing while watching the awards ceremony broadcast.
Journalists will mistakenly think that it is a message of something to the people of the global village.
