The Crazy Villain Regains His Sanity - Chapter 114
Episode 114:
When Choi Jun-ho received cooperation from the Coast Guard, Busan Mayor Han Ki-yeol wrote a detailed account of Choi Jun-ho’s solo mission and sent it to the Blue House.
“….”
After receiving the detailed information, the President’s expression hardened.
After thinking for a while, he looked at Cheon Myeong-guk, who was probably already familiar with the contents, and asked.
“What do you think Choi Jun-ho’s intentions are?”
“Honestly, I don’t know.”
The report said that there was a high probability that Taepyeongmun would collude with pirates to attack Busan.
This is meant to nip anxiety in the bud, which seems reasonable at first glance.
However, Choi Jun-ho has no contact with Taepyeongmun.
Walking away with just a glimmer of doubt? This is an action that breaks down the consistency that has been shown so far. Choi Jun-ho only punished the evil he saw in front of him.
It did not move to erase the evil that might be out there across the sea.
It’s easy to see his actions as spontaneous, but there are more than once times when I am amazed at his insight as if he has seen the future. There is some reason.
Of course, Taipingmun must be on guard. It is the largest villain organization in East Asia, having succeeded in preserving its power despite China’s massive oppression and possessing two superhumans.
I even investigated to see if Taepyeongmun had done anything that might offend Choi Jun-ho, but nothing came up.
“In the meantime, we are faced with this crisis. “How much can South Korea survive at the plus level without Choi Jun-ho?”
“I think we can stop it well enough. but.”
Cheon Myeong-guk, who paused, spoke about the future prospects.
“Whether it was intentional or not, it will result in Choi Jun-ho’s value increasing.”
“Without Choi Jun-ho, the country is nothing more than three superhumans. The sacred guild hunt also showed signs of instability.”
“yes. “We are seeing such a movement in Choi Jun-ho’s recently formed team.”
If a superhuman like Choi Jun-ho realizes his position and acts in accordance with the ransom, the loss to the government is bound to increase accordingly.
Separately, in South Korea, in addition to the three superhumans, there are superhumans named Berserker and James Reed.
This is why Cheon Myeong-guk is confident in hunting plus level monsters.
“That would be our position. I hope so. By the way, we need to think about why Choi Jun-ho moved. “This assumption is made when we think that there is information that could not have been told to us.”
The President’s expression became serious.
“Attack on the Taiping Gate. “China will be behind it.”
“The relationship between the Taiping Gate and the Chinese government is at its worst…”
“Yes. Because there are factions within it.”
“….”
The moment I heard those words, the puzzle was put together at a rapid pace.
What if China reaches out and moves the Taiping Gate to attack Busan? The Republic of Korea, which was preparing to advance north, will lose momentum and have to deal with the damage.
Of course, there was a fatal hole in the perfect picture.
“I don’t know what route it took, but Choi Jun-ho smelled it.”
“People around you may have given you advice.”
“The Taiping Gate will disappear.”
If China was behind the Taiping Gate, it was a serious topic.
But the president’s expression was not serious.
The results that Choi Jun-ho showed gave me confidence.
“These days, our image on the Internet has been good due to the hiring of experts. “Apart from that, there are also people who criticize each article.”
“How do you do that?”
Rather, Cheon Myeong-guk was surprised.
The president laughed mischievously.
“I also tried to praise Choi Junho, but wasn’t there a very malicious comment? If I were Choi Jun-ho, my blood would be gushing, but I didn’t do anything. “In that respect, he has a surprisingly merciful side.”
“I saw that comment too.”
“Was it bad?”
“yes. My eyebrows furrowed. But what can we do in a liberal democratic society? If I think it’s serious, I’ll file a complaint. Oh, of course, I posted malicious comments at a level where I wouldn’t get caught. “Please stop giving people around you a hard time.”
“I think I saw something similar? “I may have clicked the like button.”
The two laughed.
Choi Jun-ho was a person who brought trouble to the two people. However, his skills were so outstanding that I couldn’t refuse him, so I couldn’t abandon him.
The President returned to the main topic.
“Choi Jun-ho is not the kind of person who should go anywhere and get punished, so we decided to skip that part. “First of all, with two plus-level monsters appearing, I guess I’ll have to trust the power of our country’s superhumans this time.”
“We will establish the optimal plan to do well.”
“I believe it.”
In this way, the government of the Republic of Korea began to prepare for the monster opponents that appeared in the south and north by providing extensive support to the Asgardian guild and the Shinigami guild, which had bid for the right to hunt monsters.

The ship caught in the storm of blades was torn to pieces. The sailors who survived but did not die were seen struggling in the sea. If I survive there, I guess I deserve to live.
I turned around and stepped into the Taiping Gate headquarters.
Taepyeongmun Gate felt more like a kind of military barracks fortress than a villain organization.
Although it was decorated to look like a place where island residents live, young men and women with a fierce spirit were wandering around the island wearing protective clothing.
Didn’t you report that I was coming? Or did you think it was an insignificant intrusion?
The latter is likely to be the case.
It may seem like the confidence of the Taiping Gate, but it is the same as opening the door wide as an intruder.
“I rather like it.”
The nature of the island, which is isolated from the outside world and has nowhere to escape, makes it perfect for a clean-up war. Since they are all villains, I plan to kill them all.
Before the Taepyeongmun attacked Busan, I had no idea what kind of evil they committed or what kind of ideology they had.
However, the actions of the Taepyeongmun during the attack on Busan were so cruel that it is appropriate to say that it is heartbreaking. They plundered property, destroyed cities, massacred citizens who could not resist, and kidnapped people.
The true nature of Taepyeongmun Gate, which was a Buddhist temple across the river, was revealed. Afterwards, the people of the Republic of Korea trembled at the Taepyeongmun Gate.
My mother’s first cousin was also among them. Let’s take revenge on that enemy.
According to what I heard from Kim Cheol-nam, the number of pure Taepyeong believers, excluding the pirates under his wing, is about 500.
It was a number that was not too burdensome.
After noticing that my intrusion had not caused any significant change in alertness, I pulled out Nuri and headed towards the entrance of the fortress.
“Who are you…”
Instead of answering, he casted a storm of blades. The three men guarding the entrance reflexively drew their weapons, but the storm of blades engulfed them faster.
Patter!
Flesh and blood poured out, instantly taking the lives of the gatekeepers. The villains watching from behind shouted in horror.
“It’s the enemy!”
“Report inside!”
Weeeeeee!
At the same time, a sound so loud that the entire fortress rang. I’m just thankful that they all come out without me having to chase them down.
I don’t know Chinese yet. It is not easy to provoke someone to come out.
What made me confident that I had come to the right place was that the villains were shouting in Chinese. After becoming convinced that it was the Taiping Gate, I swung my sword.
“Stop it! “Wow!”
“It’s a monster!”
“Kwaaaak!”
The villains who were rushing in were caught in a storm of blades, and as about 50 of them died in an instant, they hesitated and began to scatter in all directions.
If they spread out, it becomes a hassle to chase them down and kill them one by one.
Bladestorms are more efficient than mines at killing multiple people, so I poured out bladestorms even though I couldn’t kill them in a pile.
The guy who was running away in fear was killed by casting a mine with his left hand.
Then, perhaps because they decided it would be difficult to fight alone, they formed a group and confronted me. Even he was helpless under the storm of blades. I think they tried to relieve the effects of their power by banding together, but it was better to kill them all at once.
Even though it’s China’s largest villain organization, it doesn’t seem to have a strong flavor.
How did it achieve such notoriety?
“Are the rumors exaggerated?”
It doesn’t matter to me. I just have to carry the head of the Taepyeongmunju like this.
It was then.
Goosebumps appeared on the back of my neck, and I felt a sharp anticipation.
I reflexively leaned forward and raised Nuri.
Whoops!
Because I was not in the right posture, the aftereffects were not completely resolved. When I took a few steps to the side and looked at the place where I felt the anticipation, I saw that a surprising phenomenon had occurred.
A man wearing a black mask and blood robe appeared through the cracked space. The man’s figure quickly disappeared between the cracks, but it was quite an amazing sight.
Moving freely through space?
Next, an attack was launched targeting the ankle and stomach.
Is it space refraction? What’s the principle? Anyway, it was clear that it was a space-type gift. I easily blocked all of his attacks and then fixed my gaze.
The gift of being able to move freely through space is something I have longed for for a long time. There will definitely be a penalty. However, if I can cover it with force or if it is something I can handle, the usability will be different.
First of all, I don’t think it’s possible to show only part of the body distorted.
Although it is inconvenient to attack, on the other hand, it can be used for evasion.
Actually, there is no need to think this long.
“We can look at gift abilities.”
I smiled as I saw the masked person appearing beyond the space.
“Let’s take a look at the gift.”
A mine spread out through my hand.
* * *
Zhang Wuyuan had a dream for a long time.
The goal is to develop China, where he was born and raised, into the world’s strongest awakened nation.
He was called a genius since childhood, became a superhuman, and worked hard to rise to a higher position.
As he continued to rise through the ranks, it seemed like he would reach the top at any moment. But no matter how hard I worked, I couldn’t move up at some point. The party no longer allowed him to advance.
Zhang Wuyuan felt disappointed when he saw that Tang had judged his existence as a threat.
“If you had only listened to what I said back then…”
Above, they checked and monitored any superhumans without making any effort to find out about the awakened people on the scene.
Why does it have more human resources than the United States and still lag behind? Only by driving out the monsters and increasing their power before the world is united will they be able to rise to become the world’s most powerful nation.
Contrary to his impatience, the party’s checks became increasingly stronger. In the end, the moment the story of his demotion was heard, Zhang Wuyuan took the risk and built the Taiping Gate.
Demotion meant purge.
Because it was a story about sending people to an area with a lot of monsters and telling them to fight and die.
The reason Taipingmun was able to grow into the largest organization in China and establish conflict for a long time was because there were adepts who sympathized with its cause. Even though they could not come forward directly, their support from behind was a great help.
As he gained momentum, he once dreamed of big things, but when he was outnumbered by the party’s massive counterattack, he realized that he could not do it alone.
A new plan needs to be made. Even if the result is that hundreds of millions of people die, things cannot change as they are now.
It was the league that reached out at that time.
“I guess it can’t be helped for my goal.”
A league that fosters a bigger picture while thinking similar to your own. I thought that their power to dream of a world of awakened people, not belonging to the state, would be enough to achieve their goal.
Although their thoughts, which were not tied to the country, and mine, which were centered on the country, were different.
Since there were some superhumans in China who sympathized with his will, he thought that if he took advantage of them, something would work out.
More sacrifices must be made. Only when more people die will the people who realize the party’s incompetence become enthusiastic about its existence.
If you kill one person, you become a murderer; if you kill 10,000 people, you become a hero.
Zhang Wuyuan plans to become supreme by killing hundreds of millions of people.
“Everything is for the greater good.”
Zhang Wuyuan did not set the goal alone.
He had a dependable younger brother.
He helped me succeed in countless missions in the shadows.
Because I have a younger brother, I have no fear in achieving my goals.
Although its identity was not revealed until recently, it had no choice but to eventually reveal itself in a massive counterattack.
The world gave my younger brother the nickname Dark Cloud.
“I’ll have to talk in more detail when Nangunggi comes.”
Although he was an opportunist, Changcheon Geomje was someone who would cooperate if the intention was right.
Just as Zhang Wuyuan was about to finish organizing his thoughts, one of his subordinates rushed over.
“Lord Moon!”
“What’s going on?”
“It’s an attack! “Headbreakers have attacked.”
“Headbreaker?”
I’ve definitely heard that he’s a superhuman that the league is wary of.
He came in alone? why?
Zhang Wuyuan immediately activated his gift, Huiguang Shengu (慧光心語). Then, I immediately heard the answer from my younger brother.
-Do not come.
I wasn’t telling them not to come because I could overpower them. My younger brother’s voice was at its peak.
-Run away.
[Just wait. I’ll be there soon.]
“Let’s go.”
Zhang Wuyuan got up from his seat and walked towards the scene at a fast pace.
“….”
The scene seen outside was gruesome.
Headbreaker destroyed everything to the extent that it would not be an exaggeration to say that it created hell on royalties. The fortress was horribly destroyed and the corpses of dead disciples left behind only faint traces.
Zhang Wuyuan’s eyebrows twitched as he arrived at the site of the fierce battle.
My younger brother was hanging by his neck in the hands of a head breaker.
What on earth did they have to create this tragedy?
Zhang Wuyuan’s eyes were bloodshot.
What was more urgent than that was my younger brother’s safety. The younger brother, who despite reaching the level of a superhuman, performed missions while hiding in the shadows for his own cause.
In Zhang Wuyuan’s painting, his younger brother had to stand next to him.
“stop!”
[Gal (喝)!]
At the same time, Hye-gwang Sim-eo’s will was applied and he hit a head breaker.
However, the gift activation failed to cause any damage.
Meanwhile, Headbreaker’s hand dug into his younger brother’s chest.
“…!”
My younger brother’s eyes, pierced through his heart with emptiness, lost their light and became droopy.
It’s dead.
It was the death of his younger brother, who had been working together since childhood and was willing to step in the shadows for the greater good.
Anyway, Headbreaker took the blood on his hand to his mouth, licked it, and frowned.
dump!
As the supporting force disappeared, my younger brother’s body rolled around on the floor.
“That’s bad. “What kind of restrictions are there so tightly attached? If it’s like this, there’s no need to have it.”
All he had to do was kill a superhuman and lightly click his tongue.
“….”
Zhang Wuyuan just stared blankly at the unbelievable reality.
My younger brother, who was supposed to stand above all people in the future, has died.
The head breaker who caused all this tragedy fixed his gaze in this direction and curled the corners of his mouth.
“But I have another chance to draw.”
