The Crazy Villain Regains His Sanity - Chapter 154

154

Huh? Isn’t this what it is?

No matter how you look at it, I think Jeong Da-hyun did a good job.

I looked puzzled at the president’s reaction.

“Aren’t you glad that Team Leader Jeong Da-hyun is adapting well?”

“Isn’t that the way we hunt monsters?”

“It seems rather efficient.”

“…Right.”

I guess my answer was different from the reaction I expected. This isn’t Twenty Questions, one way or another, but in the end, all you have to do is hunt monsters well, right? I’m not sure what the problem is.

On the contrary, it’s so good at digging into the monster’s loopholes that it gives me goosebumps.

I improvise on the spot, but Dahyun Jeong must have thoroughly analyzed her habits before taking action.

It’s been less than three months since I started hunting monsters in earnest, but seeing this level of growth was enough to make me shiver.

The president looked like he wanted to say something, but he closed his mouth. After hearing what I said, I guess I thought it was right.

Or not.

“And about the avant-garde guild.”

“yes.”

“I heard that Choin Lee Chan-taek talked about the acquisition. Is this true?”

“you’re right.”

One piece of information is fast. By all appearances, it must be Cheon Myeong-guk’s work, right? I guess it’s true, as he slowly turns his head and looks away from me.

I don’t think much of it, but it seems like people around me are more concerned about it.

“Then the result is….”

“I refused.”

The expressions of the two people suddenly brighten.

I was hoping for this result.

Then the President looked rather curious.

“Is there a special reason for your refusal?”

“Because it’s annoying.”

“What if the other person doesn’t bother you?”

“My thoughts will change too, right?”

Actually, I don’t like to worry or take responsibility. I have to make sure I do what I can. Managing an organization is not my aptitude.

Choi Jun-ho’s team is also virtually managed entirely by Jin Se-jeong.

I wouldn’t have even thought about this if it wasn’t for Lee Se-hee’s recommendation.

I don’t want to waste my energy on unnecessary people.

“Things can change at any time, but I am satisfied with my life right now. If possible, I want to keep going like this. In my opinion, I wish the president would continue for about 10 more years.”

“Thank you for your words.”

“Thank you, I mean it.”

“Hehehehe!”

The President just laughs at my words. I’m sincere, but you don’t understand my feelings.

The President did not inquire further about what happened between me and Lee Chan-taek.

I guess this is what faith is. It’s not easy to build a relationship like this, and it’s a shame that he’s stepping down after only five years.

Why doesn’t this country have a two-term system? If there had been a two-term system, I would have been able to see it one more time. If you don’t like it, you can get rid of it sooner.

“Even if you amend the constitution, you can’t do it one more time, right?”

“If possible?”

“We need to amend the constitution.”

“how?”

“Wouldn’t it be okay to go to the National Assembly member and ask for their cooperation?”

Of course, no incidents involving force will occur in the process.

It is a sacred constitutional amendment. We need to ask for cooperation through polite conversation.

“They say I can’t do it.”

“That’s too bad.”

I was just coming up with dozens of ideas that would change the minds of opposing members of the National Assembly.

It was also disappointing.

* * *

“….”

Choi Jun-ho left and the office fell silent for a moment.

The President’s expression was stiff, and Cheon Myeong-guk also looked nervous.

I know it even if you don’t say it.

“Did you just hear that?”

“I heard.”

“…Do it one more time? “It was the scariest moment I’ve ever heard in politics.”

“….”

“Do you know what’s scarier? What did that damn power do to him? “If I say let’s do it, Choi Jun-ho will really move to do it.”

“You clearly saw Choi Jun-ho’s superhuman execution ability.”

Choi Jun-ho was someone who couldn’t just say empty words.

It was the President and Cheon Myeong-guk who painfully experienced it.

When you are an ally, you cannot be more reliable, but when you are an enemy, it can be easier to give up everything early.

“How did you hear about going to the National Assembly member and asking for their cooperation?”

“…I think the President saved the lives of 300 members of the National Assembly.”

“You think the same as me.”

Choi Jun-ho is negotiating through dialogue?

It was the sound of a passing dog defecating.

“Anyway, there are two years left. If it’s long, it’s long. If it’s short, it’s short. “My hope is to get through that period safely.”

“So do i. “I want to resign with peace of mind with the President… Why do you see it that way?”

Cheon Myeong-guk, who was sympathetic, trembled at the president’s strange gaze.

“The two of us are closest to Choi Jun-ho, so wouldn’t it be better for at least one person to remain in the Blue House?”

“Are you abandoning me now?”

“It clears the way for talented people. Isn’t Director Cheon still young? “I have a bright future ahead of me, so it would be a shame to quit like this.”

“It’s not a waste at all.”

“I’m a waste.”

“It’s not a waste for me.”

“haha.”

The president was in no mood to back down easily, so he smiled broadly.

Cheon Myeong-guk was very nervous and took a alert stance.

“Director Cheon is not from my faction or has a strong political background. “Just because Choi Jun-ho is an expert, he can be in a higher position than he is now.”

“I have no desire for success.”

Because he entered the Blue House and saw the reality of power in detail, he became more detached.

Too bad.

If I had caught it well, I could have pushed it down more.

The President ate his food with a regretful expression on his face.

“If that were the case, everything would have been tied up by now. It’s such a shame.”

“….”

“Anyway, let’s do our best for the next two years.”

That’s a lie. It was clear that the president would try to get himself involved if the number of cases arose.

Cheon Myeong-guk pledged to never let down his guard.

* * *

The president’s day starts early. I wake up at 6 a.m., which is vaguely morning and vaguely even dawn, open the newspaper that arrived early at the Blue House, and look into urgent issues.

Personally, this is the most leisurely time.

The president’s pleasure is to enjoy the quiet in the office and keep abreast of what is going on in the world.

“Tsk.”

Then, I clicked my tongue when I saw a big picture on the front page of the newspaper. A two-shot taken by Choi Jun-ho and Lee Chan-taek while leaving for the World Supernatural Association Day event held in Japan is posted. And the article discussed the idea that state power would have large guilds under its wing.

“It exploded faster than I thought.”

The president knew that Lee Chan-taek was worried about the future of the avant-garde guild. I had no idea that it would fall under Choi Jun-ho.

“Lee Chan-taek.”

Although he is called iron-hearted, he is a superhuman with a more developed survival instinct than anyone else.

Unlike Baek Gun-seo, who is loyal to the Holy Guild, and Ryu Gwang-ho, who is self-interested, he is also a person capable of doing business.

Lee Chan-taek is a superhuman, and the Avant-Garde Guild is one of the top three guilds in Korea.

That huge guild falls into the hands of Choi Jun-ho, who is said to be the strongest in the world? Of course it’s going to be an uproar.

Newspapers were also pointing out that huge powers were being privatized. In addition, he criticized the incompetence of the Blue House.

The president snorted.

“Everyone speaks easily. “It’s a problem because we can’t stop it.”

The president who has met countless people, if he had to pick the scariest type of person, it would be someone who does whatever he wants.

Choi Jun-ho belonged here. These days, we can at least pretend to listen, but the world didn’t know how much progress this was.

Some people are losing hair and having bloody stools because of receiving it.

I thought it would end as an accident since Choi Jun-ho had already heard about it, but the aftermath was surprisingly large.

This is news of the union of the world’s strongest superhuman and Korea’s top three guilds.

It is a nuclear bomb that can turn both the political and business world upside down.

“Under normal circumstances, you would have called and warned me, right?”

This fact caused a huge stir in the political world.

Choi Jun-ho’s existence was almost a taboo in the political world, but this issue was by no means light.

So, the matter was also mentioned at a luncheon with the ruling party leader.

“Excuse me, Mr. President, but is it true that the avant-garde guild falls under Choi Jun-ho’s superman?…”

“If it is true, what will you do?”

The ruling party leader spoke in a firm voice.

“There has never been an example of a superhuman under government control running a private organization.”

“You said it wasn’t even during Kim Young-hwan’s time?”

“…At that time, I was someone I could communicate with, but Choi Jun-ho is different.”

There are exceptions to everything. Even in cases where there is no strict legal scrutiny, there was a big meaning to let things go for the better.

Considering that, the team creating Choi Jun-ho’s image was also illegal.

The President has no intention of touching this part. Issues related to Choi Jun-ho must be handled very carefully. If you make even the slightest mistake, cracks occur uncontrollably.

Considering that Choi Jun-ho is the type of person who does not look back, this is something we must be absolutely careful about.

Although he and Cheon Myeong-guk knew that, it was unfortunate that other people didn’t seem to know that.

The President said, looking into the eyes of the party leader.

“But if you’re going to do it, is there a way to stop it?”

“doesn’t exist.”

“What are the measures?”

“I think it’s best to just watch it like this. However, lawmakers are insisting that some action must be taken.”

“Keep this in mind when dealing with Choi Jun-ho in the future. When something happens, you shouldn’t force it or try to move it to the cash register. “Every action so far has backfired.”

“yes.”

“Just watch. Then everything will be resolved naturally.”

“All right.”

The party leader tilted his head, but nodded obediently. Because of this capacity, even minority members were appointed as party leaders. In return, you will be called a visionary.

This was better. Guys who think they’re smart are always punished for misbehaving as they please.

Busan Mayor Yoo Seong-su became such an idiot, and Seoul Mayor Jeong-moon Han lost public support.

It’s frustrating, but it’s much better to deal with the issue directly.

“You want me to do this one more time? “There is no way.”

I felt like I had aged several years just by covering things about Choi Jun-ho.

Still, this is better.

Rather than pooping and losing hair.

* * *

Of course, not everything related to Choi Jun-ho is tiring.

Because there is fatigue, there is comfort and relief.

The president’s most brilliant achievement during his term was to attract Choi Jun-ho to become a superhuman.

“I did a good job.”

The results of Choi Jun-ho’s recruitment were enormous.

There was no longer a need to be swayed by neighboring countries, and Korea’s hunting capabilities were at the top.

As a result, the awakened power ranking ranks among the highest in the world. It was possible to inspire pride in the people.

In addition, the long-desired advance north was successful.

This is a huge achievement. China, which has always been at the mercy of the enemy, was unable to intervene.

No, it would be correct to say that he intervened and failed. The fact that China’s power was greatly reduced in the process is an accomplishment, if only a side effect.

Starting with Zhang Zedong, Zhang Wuyuan, Nangongqi, and Wang Min.

China is currently suffering from an unprecedented shortage of superhumans.

The weakening of a neighboring country becomes an opportunity for the home country. The reason was that they could be confident even after taking possession of North Korea’s valuable territory.

“I’ll take this with me to the grave.”

What’s even more shocking from China’s perspective is that not a single Chinese hero who died at the hands of Choi Jun-ho can file an official protest.

“There are other bigger advantages.”

Choi Jun-ho’s value is truly revealed when a defense operation against monsters unfolds.

2 hours ago, a new plus stage monster appeared.

An emergency meeting was convened as scheduled. Collect information on monsters, evacuate residents in the surrounding area, and establish a cordon.

In the past, this would have created a solemn atmosphere, saying that the country’s survival was at stake.

However, the atmosphere of the emergency meeting was calm.

Everyone knows this. Plus level monsters will be resolved along the lines of Choi Jun-ho.

The president himself was surprisingly calm. Only in this way can an accurate and cool-headed judgment be made.

“Therefore, the first line of resistance is scheduled to be Danyang-gun, west of Sobaeksan Mountain…”

Not long ago, when a level 8 evil monster appeared, they were caught and dragged away by a large guild. Red Snake Kim Young-hwan tried to take advantage more viciously than the large guilds.

Choi Jun-ho was clean in this part. There are no additional requests other than the assigned portion, and the monster hunting method is clean.

When meeting with leaders of other countries, the first thing that comes out is envy. Even the enemies of each country are unable to manipulate superhumans, but Korea was able to hunt monsters without major damage thanks to Choi Jun-ho’s proactive actions.

The result is an increase in approval ratings and an improvement in the lives of citizens.

The President does not think that he has achieved all of this through his own hard work. It was possible because of Choi Jun-ho, so I tried to accommodate Choi Jun-ho even more. Because I think it is the national interest, my own interest, and everyone’s interest.

Just thinking about this during an emergency meeting gives you some freedom.

When the briefing is over, Choi Jun-ho’s gaze turns towards this direction.

“Mr. President, there is something I would like to ask you.”

“Tell me.”

“There is something I want to test while hunting this time. I think it will be difficult to preserve the monster’s body intact, so I wonder if it will be okay.”

Take the time to ask not whether the hunt was successful, but whether the carcass was preserved.

It was a world of difference from other countries where, due to a lack of superhumans, they were not allowed to rest and were forced to use all their strength, or where two had to be deployed due to the insecurity of one.

The president readily accepted.

“Do as you wish.”

“thank you.”

The sight of Choi Jun-ho calmly greeting me was extremely reassuring.

Still, I didn’t want to be president twice.

But what are you trying to do?

The President’s heart pounded when he heard Choi Jun-ho do something.

I was wondering what he would do again this time.
