Chapter 2157 – [I Want to Hit the President]

It is quite a distant future before I become absolute. I decided to take it slow and think about other things I had to do.

I’m not saying that bugs won’t occur because the Absolute Destiny of Fate has taught me some tricks about the cause, effect, and grafting skills I’ve learned this time, but at least I don’t think they’ll pop up in strange places. All that remains is to gain experience and become skilled.

However, it is not something that can be done as easily as dealing with people. Even if I use it for good things, bugs may arise, so I’m sorry. It would be better if I used it for human work, but it wasn’t the right partner.

In the worst case scenario, he could die, but that doesn’t mean he deserves to die… That’s why it’s not right to use someone like a death row inmate for my own greed. It feels a bit like a human experiment, so let’s try it later when someone we can scoff at in private comes up.

And as time passed, various things happened. First, could it be that the president on the Korean side of the gate has changed?

“It’s a regime change, and I don’t know what to do with the task force team. I feel bad if another president disbands something that has already been created.”

“Oh, you don’t have to worry about that. President Choi In-seok prepared for the last minute.”

“What did you do?”

“The task force team is under the direct control of the president, but only the president who has been imprisoned can have that authority. To even disband it, you will have to ride on the back of a tiger.”

“Hey, then there’s nothing to worry about.”

Normally, when a president retires, he will take a step back from the political world, so there are some who think that it is better to get dirty and receive sweet treats from the person with whom he has a collusive relationship later. If left unattended, it would be natural to disband the annoying task force team.

I may get criticized, and my approval rating will drop, but it can be done at the end of my term… But if I have to do it under Park Je-hyeong, it’s a different story.

As a politician, President Choi In-seok was also guilty of ordinary corruption, and because of that, there is a lot of noise over the issue of sentencing, but I wonder if other people will be appalled at a time when imprisonment is certain. If you have lived a dirty life, you will go straight to prison after you leave office.

This is even more so if there are sins that are embarrassing for others to see. In our world, there are people with special abilities, and politicians are also guilty of inciting murder.

Anyway, I’ll leave that aside for a moment. In the end, it’s a different Korea, so it’s up to them to take care of it and then decide how to respond.

“Ah, that’s right, devil. This time, we succeeded in developing dimensional interference technology.”

“Damn it!!!!!!!”

He invented full-scale dimensional interference technology by combining the spatial technology received from Delta Castle and the dimensional technology received from Gate Earth. It’s like just starting to walk, but if you can walk, shouldn’t you run or something?

However, this is a really, really dangerous technique. There are often stories of civilizations collapsing because dimensional cracks widened enormously while developing dimensional technology, so strict management was necessary.

“Oh, don’t worry about that. When conducting experiments, they don’t allow you to do it without my consent, and I always observe. If there’s a problem, I can stop it.”

“If something happens, no matter what you do, call me first. Since I learned magic in the Gate District, if I stop it with that, it will be a temporary fix to some extent.”

The magic power used by Gate Earth’s hunters acts like cement to fill dimensional cracks. Originally, the building was built strong enough with just bricks called fragments, but if it becomes unstable due to some kind of accident, it can be temporarily blocked by applying cement.

Of course, if it is a real building, it is only a temporary measure, but the dimension is no different from a living thing, so it will recover naturally. On the other hand, you can think of it as suturing a bleeding wound.

If a dimensional disaster occurs, I will have to do my best to prevent it. I’ve had a hard time so far, like an industrial accident. If you eat it in one go, the aftertaste is so fucking dirty.

“First, I will apply this dimensional interference technology to create a dimensional explorer. I will think of it as a consumable and distribute it to understand the gap situation in the surrounding dimension and test run the dimensional navigation ship in earnest…”

“I’ll have to go with you during the test drive. If I do something wrong, I’ll be in big trouble.”

“With just a little more effort, we can become a dimensional civilization, but we must not miss the first step. We will be fully prepared.”

If you can squeeze through dimensions through dimensional interference and only go out through the dimensional gap, you can go between the dimensional gaps with just a spaceship. Because it is similar to outer space, all you need is the equipment and things necessary for survival.

In fact, it is better than space because there is no space radiation or anything like that. But that’s just a general case.

“If the pressure was too strong, it would explode as soon as the probe was sent.”

“Then you won’t be able to do dimensional navigation for a while.”

The biggest problem when navigating through dimensions is interdimensional pressure. When something huge like a dimension is crowded together, pressure is generated, and the pressure varies depending on the time, but it can be so extreme that even ordinary people can withstand it, and even transcendental people often hear news of fatal accidents.

Therefore, dimensional civilizations try to understand interdimensional pressure as much as possible and show some interest in it. For example, in places where interdimensional pressure is strong, dimensional navigation ships are canceled.

At our level, we only have the technological capabilities to not be able to easily escape even if the pressure becomes even a little stronger. Even a spaceship can’t withstand a zero-gravity or high-gravity environment, right? At least it would be possible if the technology here was futuristic, but…

“Anyway, it will work out soon. There are budget issues, so let’s try recruiting investors…”

“Oh, I don’t think that’s right.”

“Why?”

“Later, when we enter the dimensional civilization in earnest, we have to prove that we did it with our own efforts. If we receive investment from someone else, wouldn’t we suffer from equity issues?”

“Useup, that’s right.”

“It will be okay if overall technology develops. However, we haven’t properly installed the portal facility yet, so that will be a problem, so for now, it’s better for us to just be a dimensional civilization.”

“Hmm…”

“Let’s leave other countries aside for a moment and let us become a dimensional civilization and help other countries develop as well. Well, the devil won’t take advantage of that, so it’s okay, isn’t it?”

“That’s right, okay. I’ll think about it.”

As Mary said, it would be better for the dimensional civilization to only be established in Korea. If the Earth were to enter a dimensional civilization as a group, it would be a mess, but it would be better to just do it to Korea, even if it means thinking about it later.

At least now that I am the president of Korea, I can decide the direction I want. If I leave office, I will have to come up with my own policies or laws, but I think I can at least prepare.

“But when we enter dimensional civilization, do you think your father will be able to become president?”

“No, that’s why we’re playing Tangja now.”

“That’s not it… When we enter the dimensional civilization, everyone will know that my father is the Great Demon King and the Lord. Can I retire?”

“… Huh?”

“If you think about it, Mr. Gray of Delta Castle continues to be elected as a representative there despite the transition to democracy.”

“Huh?”

When entering a dimensional civilization, the presence or absence of transcendents is important. So, isn’t that why I’m intentionally creating something like a dungeon trial to foster transcendents?

Even though Gray changed Delta Castle’s system to democracy, the reason he continues to be its representative is that he is the absolute ruler. Even if Gray lacks ability as a politician, his absolute growth alone is enough to get him elected.

In the first place, would an absolute person representing a dimensional civilization be common? At least the natural absolutes in the Nature Garden interfere in their own way, but apart from that, there are currently only two acquired absolutes.

Except the Absolute, even just Lords… Dragonic Castle, Death Lord Kingdom, places like that are amazing. In short, the dimensional civilization of which Lord is the representative can prosper just by its very existence.

“… I need to resign before the dimensional civilization enters.”

[Then, I think they will bring in someone who has retired and make him president.]

“Stop saying horrible things!!!!!!”

It seems like my retirement limit has been set. I think this term or the next term is the best time. After that, you could be reappointed for the rest of your life… Sigh, that sucks.

Anyway, I decided to actively play. I’m still playing, but I think it would be better to play more actively.

“What can I do to have fun?”

“I think it would be better for Dad to just do nothing…”

“No, then you don’t even know that I’m having fun. So, I should at least show you how I’m having fun.”

“If that was going to be the case in the first place, shouldn’t you have done nothing for decades like it was a universal power system?”

“There were a lot of shitty things and incidents that made it hard for me to stay still.”

“Why don’t you just keep being president?”

“Eden, even you!!!!!!”

Sabotage, sabotage, sabotage… Hmm, how can it be better to work while having fun?

So I thought it would be better to use the power I had for self-interest. If I abuse my power, people will definitely feel skeptical about me being president.

So what self-interest should we pursue? On the other hand, considering my personal desires, I like cooking, but considering that, I think something related to cooking would be good.

Of course, the program ‘Let’s Eat a Meal’, which was supposed to be done because of that, was discontinued because of the problems that arose there. I’ll do it later when things calm down a bit, but at least not right away, so I’ll skip it.

So what can I do? When you think of cooking, what comes to mind… Isn’t it, after all, ingredients?

“Ah!!!!!!!”

“That seems like a strange idea, but let me ask you what it is.”

“You need ingredients to cook!!!! Then you spend your taxes to grow rare and expensive ingredients or something like that!!!!! Like saffron!!!!!”

“The price is low because it is already grown using prison labor.”

“Oh, I see… Are you Eden?”

“I don’t really need it since Baron Beats provided it cheaply.”

“… No, that aside!!!!!”

[Isn’t everything possible because of the Garden of Eden?]

“Even in the Garden of Eden, there are some things you can’t grow. Especially seafood.”

[This is why I have to build an Eden fishing grounds!!!!!!]

“Would you like to punish your father and push him into a national project?”

[… Hmm, no, wait a moment.]

It feels like Eden and Keter are teaming up, but we’ll leave it at that for now. Right now, I plan to work for my own sabotage and personal satisfaction.

What should I do first… Is it costing a lot of taxes? No, no, I don’t think it will have much of an effect because Korea is already in an economic boom period. Since I am the one who created the current economic boom, there are probably many people who think, ‘Ah, it can’t be helped if the evil emperor spends money.’

Rather than simply spending taxes, we had to increase the scale. Even if I buy expensive ingredients and use them, it’s not a big deal since I’m an individual in the end.

“Ah, I got a good idea!!!!!!”

“In the end, I think it’s an issue that all citizens can benefit from…”

“Don’t criticize me from the beginning. Anyway, that’s what rare food ingredients are for, right? Cost-effectiveness, difficult cultivation environment, etc. Are problems.”

“Well… I guess so.”

“Then why don’t we create an environment like that and grow those expensive ingredients!!!!! Then, we’ll abuse our power, and I’ll be satisfied too!!!!!”

“I feel like I’m doing something meaningless, but it’s good. If we grow delicious food, it’s good for us too.”

Ingredients I brought from another dimension… For example, there are ratna brought from a dimension where the Jiana were suffering because of the Kshatriyas, a cedar cactus made based on a cedar cactus obtained a long time ago, etc. There are many things.

But apart from that, there are many food ingredients on Earth that are delicious but cannot be grown due to various conditions. For example, there is the Gros Michel, a banana variety of which there are only a few left due to epidemic diseases. Although it is not extinct, it has to be expensively imported from overseas to obtain it.

Since we grow them in the Garden of Eden at our house, I can just eat them, but I want to try ingredients that have different tastes other than bananas. In the end, even if they are the same grape, there is a difference between ordinary grapes and Shine Muscat.

Oh, now that I think about it, Shine Muscat is so crowded these days that there are so many things that taste like water and less sweetness, so it sucks. I want to eat really sweet Shine Muscat, not low-quality Shine Muscat that tastes like water!!!!!!

Anyway, there is a Garden of Eden, but not everything can be grown in the Garden of Eden, and there are environmental problems. Considering that, it is better to create a completely different environment.

“What are you going to do?”

“Using the Labyrinth Trial… I can artificially create and create a specific environment there, right? So I create an environment there, release the crops I want to grow, and grow them!!!!!”

“Well, wasting the resources of the Labyrinth Trial is quite an abuse of power.”

Labyrinth Trial is a facility for global public interest. Not only Koreans can enter, but citizens of all countries around the world can enter.

Can I use such facilities as I please? Of course, this is a facility made by my family, but it was clear that if I used it as I wanted, problems would definitely arise. If a diplomatic problem arises, and you say fuck it, sanctions will come in, and public opinion will worsen because of that, and the likelihood of him resigning from office increases.

[Then, can we first build a fishing ground by creating an environment similar to the Garden of Eden or an ocean?]

“Oh, please do that. Add all kinds of rare and rare ingredients.”

[Okay, let’s go.]

“…?”

Then suddenly I started to feel ominous. I have a feeling that this won’t go the way I want.

No, I do what I want, but why!!!!!!!
