Belin couldn’t believe his eyes as he looked at the comment made to the man named LEO.

Imperial Shadow Corps.

A secret group that exists in the empire, they are like shadows who do anything for the empire. Unless you were directly related to the imperial family of the empire, it was normal for you not to even know about its existence. But one community member is openly mentioning this. It was impossible.

‘what…? ‘Who the hell is…?’

She broke into a cold sweat. I was confident until I posted it.

Belin, former gatekeeper. Since she revealed that Leos had the ability but ran away for his own sake, I thought there would be a lot of public criticism against Leos. After that, I thought that naturally all the interrunners would report Leos’ location, and that using the enormous collective intelligence, it would not be difficult to find Leos.

But what about what we see now? Rather than forming a public opinion criticizing Leos, on the contrary, it was discovered that he was a member of a secret group. No, the existence of the shadow group became known only to the world.

As was the case when they kicked out Leos, the shadow group is the ones who do countless dirty things behind the scenes. They were people who regarded other people’s lives and honor as mere accessories for the sake of the empire. Therefore, the dark spirit group must never come out of the water. Because the public shouldn’t be exposed to such dirty deeds.

‘First of all… should I post an explanation… an explanation?’

Belin wondered how to overcome this situation and checked the interrunner. Lots of posts coming up countless times.

[What is the Imperial Shadow Corps? What did Leos do wrong?]

[If you are Leo, am I not the gatekeeper? What does it mean that Belin is a secret group? That girl was also a gatekeeper.]

[Someone please explain]

Some people had questions, and some began to provide explanations.

[I was a former member of the Imperial Secret Service, and I will explain. There is a group of people called the Imperial Secret Service that do dirty things behind the scenes under the emperor’s orders. They manipulate public opinion, manipulate events, and even kill someone. Always put the interests of the empire and the emperor first. That is their belief and code of conduct.]

[The fact that they incited public opinion that Belin was molested by Leos was also the work of the shadowy group under the orders of the emperor. As shown in today’s video, Belin, who was part of an undercover group, used his acting skills to push Leos and manipulated and instigated public opinion using judges and reporters who had been recruited in advance. And Leos was sacrificed. This is all I know.]

Rakarte began posting comments one by one and spoke to the killing squad members around him.

“Guys who appeared to be members of some empire’s public opinion manipulation unit began to operate. Start unpacking the information, photos, and documents of the Imperial Secret Service that we have collected in advance.”

The assassination team leader Rakart had been planning a rebellion for quite some time. Therefore, in addition to the Redgate Whirlpool annihilation plan agenda, I began secretly collecting various documents that were classified as top secret within the empire. There is only one reason. Even if the empire manipulated public opinion, it was so as not to lose.

‘I didn’t know it would be used like this…’

Information about the Imperial Shadow Corps was the Achilles’ heel of the Peren Empire. Even though they had the information, they were wondering how to spread it, but Belin carried a bomb around himself and lit the fuse, so all the extermination team had to do was light the fire.

[Do you believe that it is an imperial secret group? Pathetic bastards. There’s no way something like that exists.]

ㄴ You’re an agent of imperial public opinion. Are you still doing stupid things under the emperor? I know all of your faces, so if I meet you, I will kill you all.

ㄴ No, there are public opinion manipulators as well?

ㄴ ㅇㅇ Look at the document, it’s being uploaded in real time. Imperial confidential documents are pouring in;

When conflicting forces wage a battle for public opinion, the most important thing is evidence.

‘Imperial public opinion operatives, they have only been watching with a cautious eye until now, but now that the story about the secret group is coming out, they are desperately trying to stop it.’

Rakarte encountered a huge number of conspiracy theories and numerous comments and articles that dismissed information about the secret group as mere speculation or aggro.

“Depends on quantity. Upload to multiple accounts simultaneously to prevent information from being buried.”

As soon as Rakarte’s order was given, the members of the assassination team began going through hundreds of distances and uploading the files they had prepared in advance to various community galleries. Secret documents of the empire that instantly dominated popular posts

Most of them were documents approved by the emperor when the Imperial Secret Service was planning dirty deeds. At this point, no matter how much the empire tried to manipulate public opinion, people had no choice but to be suspicious.

[No…there really is such a thing as an imperial secret group? Looking at the documents, it’s serious. The mass murder incident, which until now was considered terrorism, the death of a high-ranking official, and the death of the head of the Imperial Citizens’ Association are all related to this? The data is too specific to be called a lie…]

In an instant, posts from the Imperial Public Opinion Manipulation Group and the Extermination Group began to fluctuate among popular posts. However, it is the video that Belin first uploaded that is currently firmly holding first place.

The comments on the video where Leos abandoned the empire and ran away to live alone were full of comments criticizing Belin.

[die.]

[What a trashy year. Do you work as an undercover group?]

[Fuck, I was rooting for you back then]

[I feel sorry for Leos too. I can’t believe I had this guy as my disciple.]

[I said something to Leos at the time, but now that I look at it, it’s that bitch Belin who is the problem.]

[If you meet me, I will kill you. So hide well.]

Countless hateful words and criticism. Belin’s heart started pounding and cold sweat broke out all over his body as he received tremendous attention from a third party for the first time in his life.

I wasn’t this nervous because of the threatening words from unknown people. The fact that public opinion is formed like this means that they are being pushed out of the imperial public opinion manipulation group.

‘Ah…ah…no…no…’

The fact that the Imperial Public Opinion Manipulation Group was being pushed back meant that the existence of the shadow group was beginning to be revealed to the world because of Belin. As she clearly knew how great a sin it was to let the secrets of the secret group that had existed for hundreds of years be revealed, she tried to resolve the situation somehow, but she could not think of anything.

‘LEO…LEO What on earth is this person…’

While some people associate LEO with Leos, Belin could not even imagine that Leos would act as an interrunner, so he did not even think that LEO and Leos were the same person.

‘What’s certain is… it’s a high-ranking position. He must have been a high-ranking official in the empire. It’s not enough to have the secret group’s internal documents, but that’s the only way to explain that it has an influence comparable to that of the imperial public opinion manipulation group…’

For a moment, Velin suspected Kelthasar, the leader of the shadow group. Kel’Thazar was the only one who had this much information and documents. However, after looking at the list of articles written by LEO, I shook my head.

‘It’s all about gates and monsters… Director Kelthazar does not have this level of knowledge. Then, was this the act of one of the other secret group members who had a grudge against me?’

I tried to make inferences, but it was difficult to even imagine that a single member of the secret group would do such a crazy thing as to boast about the existence of the group.

‘Who is this…someone who knows the identity of the shadow group and has ridiculously extensive knowledge about gates and monsters…damn…’

In a situation where inference was impossible, Belin began writing a post while squeezing his arm. Belin now writes his name as his real name, not as a nickname. She fought desperately to change public opinion.

[Belin]

[Title: About what is happening now]

[Text: I think someone with a grudge against me is spreading fake information, but if you think about it just a little bit, you know that, right? There is no way such a thing as an undercover group exists. I have been working as a gatekeeper for a long time and was not in a position to do anything else. In a situation where there was no time or leisure, I was able to join the secret troupe at the same time. This is ridiculous. I can bring all my colleagues to explain.]

Belin quickly uploaded the text without even having time to take a video. However, LEO’s post that follows.

[LEO]

[Title: Certification]

[Text: It was while I was working as a gatekeeper that I became aware of the existence of Belin’s secret group. From now on, I will expose the ugly truths about Belin that I have gathered. The reason why I was unfairly kicked out, and the reason why I had no choice but to be in the center of this idiotic vortex.]

[Attachment: Photo.JPG]

Leos uploaded a photo of himself, and then began randomly uploading documents containing false information about Belin. Belin looked at it with blank eyes.

‘LEO…LEO was Leos…? Is the photo stolen? No…I think I just took a picture…? More than that… you can’t believe it… It’s true that I’m part of the Imperial Secret Service, but… I didn’t do what was there…?’

According to the document, it contained a story that Belin actively suggested and participated in the Redgate Whirlpool mass murder operation. However, Belin was certain.

‘I can’t believe it… I can’t believe this nonsense…’

But it was different from Belin’s expectations.

[Bellin, that bastard is really evil. You must kill him immediately.]

[Do you think you can fucking kill us and live?]

[You are the one who tried to kill an innocent person, and not only are you part of a secret group, right?]

[Now that it’s spread on interrunner, it’s only a matter of time before you’re left behind. Hide, we will all look for you.]

[You tried to kill my entire family, right? I will do the same for your family.]

Belin began to tremble more and more. Words from people filled with extreme malice.

Furthermore, the insane fear of being accused of a crime that one did not commit.

That’s when she was scared. Someone came in from outside the door.

“Belin.”

The person who came in was none other than Kelthasar.

“Ke…Kel’thasar, please help me…Empire…I was trying to act for the Empire, but now I’m in big trouble…”

“Yes, I need to help. Not us, but you.”

Keltazara added to Velin with an emotionless expression.

“Belin, from now on, all false information about you posted on Interrunner will become the truth. You have to take responsibility for this incident. Because I came to that conclusion.”

Kelthasar whispered as he dragged Velin, who was trying to escape.

“The nonsense that spread the existence of the shadow group cannot be forgiven even by death. It’s going to be a lot of fun from now on. Because you will become an enemy of the entire empire and a person who cannot live anywhere else. From now on, there is no place for you in this empire.”
