24. A-class dungeon appears.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

‘Riot Violent Suppression’

‘Femi Assault Case’

‘Bamboo Spear Incident’

 

 

Etc.

That incident, called by various names, became a ‘legend’.

 

Despite happening just a few days ago, it caused a huge stir online and was a human rights violation that shocked the world.

 

 

Well, I don’t care though.

 

 

For reference, no one died in that incident, but about 5,000 people were caught, and it’s a real spectacle. Less than 50 people were of average weight. That means less than 1%.

 

 

And among that 1%, only about 6 could be considered ‘beautiful’.

 

So, the number of women who can be called beautiful among feminists is about 0.01%. Even then, they are not true feminists but rather parasites who came in to suck the sweet nectar, so it’s hard to even call them feminists.

 

 

 

 

 

 

“The President contacted you.”

“The US President also contacted you.”

“The EU too.”

“The German Chancellor-“

“From Britain-“

“France-“

“China-“

 

Anyway, apart from that shocking incident, world leaders are still contacting me to get in touch. The reason is obvious: the Stat Casino.

 

 

This revolutionary building is such an epoch-making discovery that it could completely change human history, so regardless of what I did, world leaders are constantly contacting me.

 

 

Korea will soon have to back down and come over to my side. They won’t be able to hold out otherwise.

 

 

 

 

 

.

.

 

 

 

 

 

 

“What exactly do you want?”

 

 

The President took the time to meet me.

He looked quite exhausted.

The sly smile he always wore is gone now.

 

“Uhm….”

 

 

Well.

What do I want?

I started this because I thought it was outrageous that feminists were attacking my sister, but the incident has unnecessarily blown up.

Still, now that I’ve done it, I can’t back down in such an unsightly way, so I need to secure some justification and practical benefits.

 

 

Not knowing the answer, I looked at Seo-hyun, and she nodded and handed me a file. I had already delegated this matter to her.

 

 

“Wouldn’t this be enough?”

 

Opening the file, there were several plausible clauses.

To pick a few:

 

 

-Recognition of Harem Palace’s city autonomy

-Transfer of rights over North Korea

-Recognition of the establishment of a formal military organization.

-The appointment of Guild Master (Yu-eun) as an honorary general

 

Etc.

These are the most representative ones.

And each one is something that the President would never be able to accept.

 

 

Just looking at the recognition of city autonomy, it would be difficult unless the country is destroyed like Japan, right? Of course, this President had a favorable view of this, but since I did something similar to a coup, public opinion won’t accept it.

 

And the transfer of rights over North Korea is the same.

This is literally asking for the right to take action on North Korea on Harem Palace’s own, which, simply put, means that even if I take my handmaidens and push North Korea over and establish a country, they should formally recognize it.

 

 

In short, bullshit.

 

The rest, well, you know without me having to explain.

 

 

 

 

“Ah, and the expulsion of feminists too. Since they insulted our lovely sister, let’s arrest them all for defamation. Death penalty, kwang kwang.”

“…The Republic of Korea is not a communist country.”

“It’s almost going that way these days. They’re even regulating porn. If they can regulate it under the pretext that it’s too obscene and harms public morals, then they can also regulate ideologies that are too fucked up and harm social ethics and cause widespread harm, right? Femi regulation, okay?”

“….”

 

 

President-ssi sighed deeply.

 

Well, the fact that he came to me means he was somewhat prepared, so wouldn’t he accept it?

 

 

 

“Let’s say everything else is fine. Why do you want an honorary position as a general?”

 

Hmm. I’m wondering that too. It seems like Seo-hyun put that clause in…

 

 

“For world peace.”

“…Huh?”

 

She gave an answer that I didn’t expect at all.

World peace out of the blue…? Leaving aside the connection to that, was she even the kind of kid who cared about that?

 

 

“The Main Palace plans to establish a national military organization soon, and will use it to provide relief to dungeon-vulnerable countries and conduct future dungeon defense wars. As part of this project, we plan to agree with various countries around the world to receive honorary military ranks.”

 

…She had such a plan? I didn’t know at all. Is this impromptu?

 

“It will be beneficial for Korea too. Other countries would charge expensive fees to carry out dungeon defense wars, but if we sign the above treaty, we can receive the service for free.”

“Hmm.”

 

 

The President leaned back on the sofa.

He looks deeply worried.

 

“You’ve probably already noticed. The high-level dungeons that will appear in the future cannot be stopped by the military. But trying to stop them through adventurers is also a distant prospect. Only Master-nim and the Main Palace can barely suppress them, and by then, the value of the Main Palace will have already skyrocketed. It’s best for Korea to sign a treaty in advance.”

 

President-ssi fell into contemplation. He nodded and shook his head from time to time, spending time like that.

Then, at some point, he leaned forward.

 

 

“Okay. Let’s form a team to coordinate the details later.”

 

 

Oh.

 

 

“However, I would like to add a few clauses on my end.”

“What is it?”

“Since you’re receiving a military rank anyway, I hope you’ll work to refine the Korean military.”

“Huh? What’s that again?”

“Even if it’s not enough to fight a dungeon defense war, the country needs to be able to maintain law and order, at least. It’s nothing huge, just opening the stats of the officers and developing military weapons. I’d like to create a separate agency to manage this.”

“An agency or something….”

“If you’re going to create a national agency anyway, it would be good to create several organizations under it and then accept each country as a member state or directorate. With Korea joining there.”

 

So, he’s saying to create an organization and carry out a project to refine (adventurize) the officers of each country’s military there, and put Korea in as a member state?

 

 

“I don’t want a simple member state. I want at least the position of a key directorate occupied by D10. That’s the least I need to justify calming public opinion.”

“I see.”

“And I hope that membership will be achieved not only at the national level of ‘Korea’ but also at the ethnic level of ‘Korean people’. Korea may perish someday, but the people will not.”

“Hmm…I’ll think about it.”

 

 

An agency…

But if I create something like that and create directorates, that means I’ll have to vote on certain issues. I don’t like that. I prefer to do as I please.

 

 

 

 

 

 

.

.

 

 

 

 

 

 

After the President left, I talked with Seo-hyun.

 

 

“First of all, it doesn’t seem necessary to create a national agency to train officers with stats. As you said, creating something like that could lead to interference from various countries.

But it’s worth trying to accept officers from each country, open their stats, provide related training, and send them back. In any form, it means that officers who have been through our hands will spread around the world.”

 

“Ah. If they’re female officers, I could secretly make them handmaidens.”

“Yes. Even if they’re men, we can bribe them with money or gifts. Besides, developing military weapons seems to have some meaning.”

“Why is that? Isn’t that disadvantageous to us?”

 

 

“Well…considering Master-nim’s and my stats, not really…It would be a threat to ordinary adventurers. Then it’s more beneficial for Master-nim. The militaries of each country will take care of keeping the annoying adventurers in check, and conversely, the adventurers will keep the military in check. Master-nim will be standing alone above them.

But if the military doesn’t have that kind of power, eventually the power of the adventurers will surpass the military, and if it gets to the point where it’s difficult to maintain law and order, it will be quite tiring. Even if Master-nim’s power grows, maintaining law and order around the world is very difficult, and even if we do, it’s too wasteful. It seems better in many ways to leave that part to the militaries of each country and turn our capabilities elsewhere.”

 

“I see.”

 

 

She explained it in a long way, but I don’t really understand.

 

“To put it simply, the Earth will eventually belong to Master-nim, and it will be easier to govern when the military has power.”

“I see.”

 

Well, she’ll take care of it.

 

 

 

 

+++

 

 

 

 

 

 

About 2 weeks after Yu-eun’s coup occurred.

The incident ended with Korea backing down.

 

 

Thanks to signing a treaty with several unacceptable clauses, the political world was beaten up every day, and even the President’s approval rating, which had been praised for receiving nuclear weapons approval, plummeted.

 

 

 

And a few days later.

Perhaps to quell the aftermath of this incident, the President himself came out and made a shocking announcement.

 

 

 

 

 

 

“80 years of the Republic of Korea. There have been many pains during this period, but anyone can say that it is an unprecedented golden age in the history of the Korean people.

 

 

Back in the days of Goguryeo. Our ancestors ran across the vast plains of Manchuria and exerted influence towards the continent, not just the narrow Korean Peninsula. But even then, we were not a global nation.

 

 

During the Silla and Goryeo periods, we couldn’t even fully obtain the Korean Peninsula.

 

 

The Joseon Dynasty is stained with days of humiliation.

Following the Japanese Invasion of Korea and the Manchu Invasion of Korea, there were the French and US expeditions, and finally the Gyeongseong National Humiliation. We suffered the humiliation of losing the nation and the people themselves.

 

 

We have always been a small, peripheral country that has not been noticed on the world stage.

 

 

But now, we are a powerful nation. We have become citizens of a powerful nation, guaranteed freedom, and able to run for a better life in equal opportunity.

 

 

OECD member, top 10 dungeon power, top 10 military power, top 10 nuclear power. These titles indicate our position approaching the center of the world.

 

 

We are at the center of the world more than ever.

We are receiving more attention from the world than ever.

 

 

 

 

But it’s not enough.

 

 

 

We are not the best. We are not the strongest.

And we can’t be. Not if we stay like this.

 

Unification?

It’s not enough.

It’s woefully inadequate.

 

 

We need something more powerful.

We need something that fits the era of globalization, something that fits the dungeon era.

 

 

So I thought.

In this era, we need someone to take the lead and shoulder everything.

 

 

I also made a decision.

I will be that person.

 

Putting my life so far, and the life to come, on the line, I make another decision and my first declaration from this position.”

 

 

The gathered reporters from around the world momentarily held their breath and focused on his mouth.

What on earth was he going to say that he had thrown such a long introduction?

 

 

 

“In cooperation with Guild Harem Palace, we will promote the adventurerization of all military officers, that is, accept stats and complete a certain standard of training and education to train elite troops. Also! We will greatly improve our national defense capabilities to minimize the threat of potential enemy countries scattered around and protect our country and people from them, and as a means to that end, we will first implement maintaining 900,000 active-duty soldiers through female conscription.”

 

 

As soon as he finished speaking, all the reporters in the hall stood up, and camera flashes burst from all directions like machine guns.

 

 

Almost all the reporters raised their hands as if they had questions, but he wasn’t finished yet.

 

 

“When we have an era of 900,000 active-duty soldiers, the reserve forces will be almost twice as large as they are now. If we can operate this efficiently, the combat power of the ROK Armed Forces will increase further, and our preparedness for national emergencies such as dungeon defense wars will also increase significantly.”

 

 

“How do you plan to raise the funds!”

“What will happen to the military reduction plan that has been going on until now?!”

“There will be strong opposition from the public, do you have any preparations for that?”

“What about the funds for facility preparation-,”

 

 

The reporters’ reckless questions poured out, but the President raised his hand to stop them.

 

 

“Citizens, now is no longer the time for us to bicker among ourselves. It’s not the time to be divided. We must unite as one, whether by region, gender, or generation, and strive for the rise of this country and the spirit of the nation.

 

 

Women, we must no longer assign the important duty of national defense, which is a major duty of the state, to only one gender. We must do it together.

 

 

We must run together, train together, tumble together, fight together, and build camaraderie. Not just individual camaraderie, but the camaraderie of our people.

 

 

In order not to experience the pain of war.

In order not to experience the pain of being invaded.

In order not to experience the pain of losing the country!

 

 

We must sacrifice and endure.

That is the teaching of history, and the lesson written in the blood of our ancestors.”

 

 

 

 

Questions poured out as soon as the announcement ended.

And almost simultaneously, the internet exploded.
