The Knight King Who Returned with a God - Chapter 205
< Surprise >
What? Lost contact with the North Korean delegation?
Office of the President. President Andong-gil looked up at the news that the New Year’s envoy sent to North Korea had lost contact.
Isn’t communication just blocked? It’s not like yesterday or today that your hotline is unstable.
After China was torn apart even if North Korea which had no place to lean on gave up its nuclear weapons and calmed down the outdated infrastructure remained.
Even today if the weather is bad the base station is often blown up and communication is interrupted and there are not many hotlines between the two Koreas in the first place.
Even for the South Korean government which seeks gradual North Korean collapse and integration this problem is difficult to resolve.
This is because North Korea refuses help other than Hunter and somehow uses the energy to extend its power.
In Paradise on Earth which is maintained by the grace of the leader Abai the less news of the South Korean rebels the better.
“Isn’t there any unsavory movement in North Korea?”
Yes! All of North Korea is being monitored by US military satellites. There is no movement.
Then there’s no problem?
In response to the aides’ answers President Andong-gil didn’t take it seriously.
“More than that what about the Pantheon? When does the Pantheon come back?
Yes we departed from Dulles Washington Airport tonight. US Air Force escorts and our Air Force aircraft will take over.
The aide added one thing.
The Japanese government has proposed a joint escort. What would you do?
Ghmm… the intention is obvious.
Leon decided to make an official New Year’s schedule with President Andong-gil. After the announcement of Dragonia the god of gold and contracts governments and business people around the world want to contact Leon and President Andong-gil can say that he is very attached.
Before anyone else you’ll be able to contact Leon the leader of the pantheon and discuss the Dragonian Contract which is tantamount to a financial revolution.
‘Relay costs for commissions hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe.’
Mansinjeon does not officially pay taxes but the corresponding expenses are appropriately packaged and paid to the Korean government.
In addition the contracts signed by Manshinjeon Headquarters all over the world and their 1% fee have no choice but to go through Korea.
Truly an enormous amount of goods will pass through Korea so even that rice cake dumpling can be used as a record of one’s achievements.
“The Japanese side must have intended that as well right?”
Yes they are probably confident that they will be able to meet first after Korea. At least they would like to invite the executive level of Manshinjeon in the official New Year’s work.
Queen Beatrice and Sir Yacht Spinner are practically the same as agents of the Lion Heart King. They must be in a position to invite one of them.
It’s not just Japan. Nearby Russia Taiwan and other European countries were eager to contact the pantheon.
The fact that ministerial-level figures with strangely high positions flocked to the presidential official New Year’s ceremony right away made the intention obvious.
Hehehehe…
President Andong-gil realized the national prestige that goes up to the visitation intentions flocking from all over the world.
When the head of the association Oh Kang-hyeok went all-in to Mansinjeon to die I wondered if that old man was crazy but now I see that it was the foresight of an old man.
‘A rising national rank! My achievements are piling up! It’s very stable!’
What to do when Leon and the pantheon arrive? First of all since the red carpet is laid out and preparations are made for the welcome party a dinner party is held and the new survivor Grand Duke Karina meets.
The most important thing is how to manage Dragonia contracts in the future.
No matter what you do as long as you do the basics Korea’s economic growth rate will hit its peak in the new year. Is there anything easier than this?
Make sure Minister Kim of the Ministry of National Defense undergoes protocol training yes! If there are ministers going back to their hometowns to meet their families at the welcome ceremony tell them that they will be fired at my hand!
Yes yep…!
But the next day President Andong-gil faces a crisis of a lifetime.
* * * *
The work of the armistice line which split the Korean peninsula in half and divided the nation has been similar for 80 years.
Both sides have soldiers patrolling in front of the demilitarized zone.
In the past there were many cases of provocations against the South such as wooden box mines but as North Korea began to be subordinated to the South Korean hunter contingent such provocations almost disappeared.
At best it was only to shoot a few shells at the sea level around Yeonpyeong Island. Even this North Korea was keeping a reasonable line while paying attention to the South Korean government.
Whoaam~
A GOP guard post near the armistice line. Sergeant Kim who was about to be discharged after serving in the military for 1 year and 10 months looked up at the clear and clean starry sky and became sentimental.
You’re going to be discharged soon but you’re insulting me.
Hehe by tomorrow I’ll use up all the vacations I’ve planned and this boring military life will be over. Park Il-hoon~ You stay and I go~
Ah jjom…!
Although peace with North Korea has been going on for a long time the South Korean military is still wary of the North Korean military.
Anyway it was also the significance of the existence of the Armed Forces and there were several provocations against the South whenever I was bored.
Surprisingly however the GOPs along the armistice line were at peace as North Korea’s main provocations were limited to sea level artillery fire that resulted in no casualties along the coastline.
In the past there was a lot of talk about wooden box mines but the North Korean military was also avoiding provocations that caused casualties as much as possible paying attention to the South Korean government.
As long as there is nothing special the military life with the elk and the wild boar will end smoothly.
-Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
From the quiet demarcation line to the grotesque noise. They didn’t doubt that.
No someone did a tiller in the middle of the night…
“You crazy bastard someone drives a cultivator in this town!”
At Sergeant Kim’s harsh criticism Corporal Park turned his gaze toward the source of the noise. and······.
Ha… fuck.
-Yi Lee Yi Ying!
Dozens of aircraft were heading towards their ceasefire line.
Watching North Korean transport planes suddenly approaching at dawn the two enlisted men recalled a fighter pilot who defected from North Korea with a MiG 50 years ago.
* * * *
Aircraft pilots from North Korea were escorted to Suwon Air Base by an emergency squadron of South Korean fighters.
Dozens of planes made a soft landing at the Suwon combat airfield and one MiG plane whose landing gear was damaged due to aging crashed into the airfield but no one died and was safely delivered to the NIS.
So Mr. Lee Sang-hyeok came as a defector? Do you all mean the same thing?
That’s right! I came down like this by fighting spirit with my comrades in the Air Force. Trust me!
Ah yes yes…
It is not unusual for North Korean defectors to escape from North Korea today but it was the first time in the history of the 80-year division that a group like this was brought in by plane.
The NIS investigators intended to thoroughly investigate the truth and decided to cross-examine the 40 North Korean pilots separately.
If there is a lie someone will expose the loophole.
But they exposed too many loopholes.
“That that’s why from the 5th corps Mr. Park Jin-sang——”
“You just said that you were in Ryu Gyeong-soo’s division. No are you already changing what you said a few minutes ago?”
That it’s not that…!
Since my house is not far from Pyongyang… no did Abadi live in Wonsan? No that… Kaesong? Nope…
I have come down with a special order. Very important to pass on to the South Korean comrades–I have come down with a special order to pass on to the South Korean comrades–
······Mr. Ri Jin-soo?
It was 1:00 pm on the 28th three hours after the mass defection of North Korean fighter pilots.
The pilots who defected from North Korea stopped like a broken watch.
All 40 pilots exactly at the same time. The sight of the walls stopping all at once was bizarre to the NIS agents watching through the magic mirror.
What what? Why are you like that all of a sudden?
For now tell them to come out inside! Something’s strange!
Instinctively the command of the executive who sensed ‘danger’ was meaningless and the bomb planted on the ‘traitors’ was activated.
“Ah I knew——”
The eyeballs of the pilot in despair exploded.
– Weeing! Wheein!!
“Shouting to all agents in the facility! A demon arises inside! Monster Outbreak! Move the Awakened Suppression Units quickly!”
December 28 2032 at 1 PM.
A monster occurred at the NIS building in Naegok-dong. Pollution sources are expanding.
* * * *
Fuck fuck fuck!!
The president is a position that requires dignity. Pro-opposition reporters would open fire if reporters found out that he was swearing around in the government building not in his office.
The fortunate thing is that this is the Yongsan Joint Chiefs of Staff Headquarters a military facility.
Aside from that I thought there would be no Korean high-ranking people who wouldn’t swear at me right now even in the opinion of my aides.
There was a sudden large-scale North Korean transport plane defection in the middle of the night.
Although we do not know the details the Ministry of National Defense viewed it as the largest North Korean defection since the division of North and South Korea as there was no actual damage.
but······.
Are you sure? That there was a monster in the investigation room?
Yes this is an issue directly reported by the second deputy director of the NIS. Currently the Awakened unit directly under the NIS is suppressing it.
That’s not enough. Call in the hunter guilds around you too! You can’t push armored units into downtown Seoul!
President Andong-gil immediately issued a state of war and the president moved to the underground bunker of the Joint Chiefs of Staff according to wartime protocol.
There were already generals including the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and they jumped up to President Ahn’s position.
Are you here Your Excellency!
Upon receiving the greeting from the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff President Ahn passed it over with a rare gesture and immediately sat down at the table of honor. It is the first time that President Ahn has been here since a black gate occurred in the middle of Seoul about a year ago.
I heard roughly but please explain briefly.
Yes 27 minutes ago all North Korean pilots who defected died.
“At the same time there is a report that an unknown monster has occurred inside.
·······.
something ambiguous
North Korean aircraft disguised as large-scale defection and infiltrating and the pilots destroy themselves all at once?
Of course this scale of provocation against the South was the largest in the history of the 80-year armistice. In terms of scale it far exceeded the Panmunjom ax incident or the Yeonpyeong Island shelling.
However the scale was ambiguous for this to be an attempt at an all-out war.
If the damage was to neutralize a single NIS building with only dozens of suicide bombers it would be damage.
Of course since monsters appeared it was not an issue to be taken lightly but there were over 10000 hunters in Seoul.
Is there a hotline on the North Korean side right now?
We haven’t been able to connect since the delegation lost contact.
The timing was also odd. President Ahn began to get confused.
“Are these bastards scrambling for food?”
That’s why the scale of this provocation…
No that’s why even a declaration of war is an ambiguous scale. It could be a terror attack by hardliners inside.
It was an ambiguous incident that was too large to be an extension of the almost ceased provocations against South Korea over the past 20 years and too small to be a declaration of war.
For now until DEF CON 3… I have to issue it right?
This alone is a state of quasi-war on par with the Panmunjom incident. A wartime posture that has never been issued since the Battle of Yeonpyeong. However the situation is not too serious to issue a lower grade.
Defcon 3 or Watchcon 2? When President Ahn fell into agony——
Your Excellency! Emergency contact from the Korean People’s Army! An unidentified submarine shot down Air Force Unit 2!
······uh?
Air Force Unit 2.
In other words it is one of the high-ranking chartered flights of the Korean government. It was the charter plane that recently carried the Pantheon from Washington International Airport.
Eh the pantheon?
That that’s…
President Ahn was distorted with astonishment at the reaction of the aide who was hesitant to answer. The moment he was about to say something——
-thud!
Yongsan Joint Chiefs of Staff Underground Bunker. Above them an unusual explosion rang out.
-Wheein~! Weing! Wheein!
And an emergency sound echoed throughout the government building. At the same time the telecommunications soldiers were passing on emergency information while completely white.
“This the landing of monsters at Incheon Port has been confirmed!”
A large-scale monster wave occurred near the Demilitarized Line! It’s over 100000! Radar caught it too late!
There is a mysterious bombing attack inside Seoul! Citizens… there are reports that citizens have turned into monsters!
A similar explosion occurred in Naju City! A large army of monsters is said to be marching towards the Pantheon!
A wave of so much information came all of a sudden.
Bad news poured out as if an incident had become the starting point.
And this was by no means an external unrest.
An unidentified unit has attacked the government building! It’s a human! It’s a human not a monster!
As if they had been waiting a unit made up of humans raided the Joint Chiefs of Staff. What this meant was clear.
Aside from how and why.
The raid on the government building where the president and military generals gathered at this timing meant only one thing.
It’s a war.
