Chapter Index

    A being of chaos.

    The world faced the crisis of the end due to the evil spirit that swallowed the World Tree.

    A massacre occurred all over the world, led by the absolute being Song Yu-hwan, who came to worship that chaotic being.

    And due to the pollution of the World Tree, the fog of chaos creates a large number of high-ranking monsters that are incomparable to the Gate.

    Even the Pope’s palace acknowledged all these phenomena as evidence of the end of times and was prepared for destruction.

    But fortunately the apocalypse did not happen.

    Through the activities of a saint called Unknown.

    A day in November when the Pope’s palace declared that the apocalyptic crisis was over.

    A year has already passed since that day.

    I was walking alone along the streets of Myeongdong in Seoul, which had a festive atmosphere.

    ‘The atmosphere is good.’

    When it comes to the end-of-year festival atmosphere, it is probably around Christmas at the end of December.

    Now, Rebirth Day in November, which was created to commemorate the end of the crisis, was attracting attention as an even bigger anniversary.

    The atmosphere on the street was peaceful.

    In fact, this atmosphere of peace was unfamiliar to me.

    The gray city of the full moon.

    This world full of gates and monsters was a world where danger always coexisted.

    Of course, that dangerous reality has not yet changed.

    Remnants of chaos still remain.

    The fog of chaos disappeared, but the gate and monsters remained.

    However, here, Seoul, is the safest place in the world.

    Above all, Korea, immediately after the apocalyptic chaos.

    It was also a place where the system stabilized faster than any other country in the world.

    Peaceful advertisements were also playing on large electronic billboards on buildings along the streets.

    At that very moment, the advertising screen on the electronic display board changed.

    [Breaking News: Former Chairman Song Yoo-hwan’s first trial ruling is confirmed!]

    Although the specific sentence has not yet been reported in the news.

    I already knew how many years the sentence would be.

    Roaring Roaring-

    People on the street who confirmed the breaking news each said something.

    “Has the trial of that damn war criminal finally begun?”

    “A bastard like Hitler… No, he’s a worse devil than Hitler. The death penalty is the only answer!”

    The public’s atmosphere was grim.

    This was something that could not have happened in the days when Song Yu-hwan reigned as the dictator of Korea.

    For example, a little while ago, the man was cursing Song Yu-hwan with an angry face.

    Perhaps, if he had said the same thing during the dictatorship, he would have been quietly taken away by Sado’s special department and disappeared.

    ‘The times have changed.’

    In Korea, where Song Yu-hwan’s apostle of Valhalla fell, a new government was established.

    A dual system in which the new Hunter Association holds power, along with a civilian government.

    Unlike before, it was a moderate and democratic government to the point where the citizens could speak out loud.

    The approval rating among citizens was also quite high, approaching 70%.

    ‘Well, actually, the approval rating was over 90%. Even if it is too high, a frame can be created. I think I did a good job manipulating it properly.’

    I thought to myself for a moment and sat down on a bench in the center of the square.

    Breaking news about Song Yu-hwan continued to flow.

    “What, not the death penalty but 20 years in prison? Isn’t that nonsense!”

    “You left that massacre alive?”

    The crowd on the street looked angry and each person said something.

    Of course, I wasn’t angry because I knew the sentence in advance.

    No, rather, I actually manipulated him behind the scenes to get that level of punishment.

    ‘There are still many apostolic rebels remaining. There is no need to execute Song Yu-hwan and make him a martyr.’

    The sentence was decided after a lengthy meeting with Crimson Teeth’s board of directors.

    It would be more troublesome if his death were deified and a central point was created.

    Following that breaking news, news of other war crimes trials taking place simultaneously also made the news.

    “How can the Holy Land be like that! I believed it! I believed you, but you lied!”

    Another character. People also said something about Ha Ye-eun’s ruling.

    “Your face is so pure and angel-like, but the things you do are completely evil.”

    “Still, I’m glad it ended with encouragement and punishment. If that crime hadn’t been revealed, I would have pretended to be completely innocent and lived as a saint.”

    Even though I was ordained a saint.

    The time that Ha Ye-eun was able to become the saint of her dreams was extremely short.

    Corruption committed while operating Seongnyeo TV. In addition to the evil act of stealing the sacred relics of the Goddess Church, he also committed war crimes in which Song Yu-hwan participated.

    Unlike Song Yu-hwan, Ha Ye-eun is a person who does not have any political value.

    Therefore, no one had any influence during the trial process.

    ‘no. There was influence from the Goddess Church.’

    It was the same as being dismissed as a goddess religion.

    Rather, it seemed like they wanted to show the apostate a certain punishment.

    A camp in Siberia famous for its extremely harsh labor punishment.

    Ha Ye-eun will be sent there.

    The Goddess Church would never want to send that corrupted saint outside.

    Until the moment she dies, Ha Ye-eun will probably suffer by repeating the physical labor she hates the most.

    Of course, since it is a camp in a rough area, there will be no food that Ha Ye-eun likes.

    ‘It might have been a blessing to die.’

    Of course, I didn’t feel any sympathy for Ha Ye-eun.

    And when I saw the news of Song Yu-hwan and Ha Ye-eun’s verdict, one person naturally came to mind.

    ***

    Song Sia, Song Yu-hwan’s daughter and the same Aigis as Ha Ye-eun.

    Still, Song Xia was better off than the other two.

    Songsia betrayed her father in Theia’s underground tower and chose me.

    After that, he fought alongside the Apostle of Valhalla as a member of Crimson Teeth.

    So, externally, he is a person who fought against the crimes of his father, a war criminal. A certain degree of indulgence has been granted.

    ‘Well, it still doesn’t change the fact that I lost everything.’

    However, Song Si-ah was born as the daughter of Song Yu-hwan and has lived a life no different from a princess of a country.

    Although she hated her father, Song Yu-hwan.

    In fact, Song Yu-hwan loved Song Si-ah very much as his daughter.

    Perhaps, he lost his father, the only person in the world who loved him.

    And the new government and association returned all the wealth accumulated by the Apostle of Valhalla to the national treasury. None of her father’s property would go to her.

    ‘In that case, I would have been all that was left for Song Xia…’

    I gave her both a gift and a punishment.

    Marionette of black thread.

    Although the two people were connected by Jinhyeol’s blood sucking.

    With the fire of Prometheus, I removed all the restraints of that true blood.

    – no! You… I can be your servant! So please…don’t take Jinhyeol’s bond…the vampire’s bond away from me!

    Song Xia sobbed and pleaded.

    That deep connection. In particular, if a female vampire does not receive the love of the male partner she is a vampire for, she will turn to ashes and die.

    So, it’s the same as saving Song Xia.

    Perhaps Song Xia was convinced at that moment.

    If that vampire bond disappears, there will be nothing left between Song Xia and me.

    ‘It’s just that we become strangers.’

    I heard that Song Xia will continue her career as a low-level office worker at the Hunter Association in the future.

    Thus, the ill-fated relationship with Song Xia ended.

    However, unlike An Yu-min.

    Song Xia has all my feelings and memories about me.

    I don’t know whether that fact will be a blessing or a curse for her.

    It was that time.

    There was a little commotion near the bench where I was sitting.

    “Ah, don’t do that! Today is Rebirth Day! Let’s have a drink together! Didn’t you come out alone anyway?”

    “It’s really expensive. If you bounce like that, men actually hate it!”

    Even though it’s winter now, I’m wearing a tight short-sleeved tee and shorts. And a group of bad men full of tattoos surrounded a woman.

    She was a beautiful woman with long black hair, just looking at the silhouette of her back.

    The surroundings became more noisy.

    “Wow… It’s really pretty. Is he a celebrity?”

    “Ah! I’ve seen that woman before! In last year’s competition…”

    But the uproar did not last long.

    The large men in suits immediately knocked the rogue men down.

    And at that moment, a message came to me.

    [Chief of Security Park Jeong-hoon: How can we handle it? I will do as the Chairman orders.]

    I replied to the message, “Just enough to not die.”

    And after a while.

    The woman at the center of the commotion approached me.

    I looked at her, smiled and said.

    “You told me to come out in disguise. You are so pretty that you stand out.”

    “Yes… It’s pretty. What do you mean when you see it? Well… I’m not happy at all when I hear such shameful words!!”

    I was so embarrassed that my face immediately turned bright red.

    But my girlfriend, Hana Choi, couldn’t hide the smile on her face at all.

    I muttered to Hana.

    “Dating in a place with so many people is difficult. Other places are fine for me too…”

    “But this is the first Rebirth Day! So… this Rebirth Day has a very special meaning among lovers… everyone is making a fuss.”

    The sight of Hana wearing a scarf and bowing her head shyly was cute.

    But soon Hana raised her head again and personally straightened out the scarf I was wearing.

    “I didn’t forget to put it on! Hehe.”

    It was a scarf that Hana made herself last winter.

    “Of course. It’s a gift from my girlfriend.”

    “Heehee… I love you as my girlfriend.”

    I held her hand very naturally.

    Then one of them quickly came to me.

    Even though we had already been dating for over a year, the sight of her being happy at being called my girlfriend was unique and lovely.

    Hana is still active as a vertuber for Underdolls.

    Rather, after moving to a new broadcasting platform, Na Haring became even more famous and became an international celebrity.

    So, the fact that Naharing was closed on Rebirth Day was a very big issue in the community.

    Perhaps Rebirth Day is a special day for young couples.

    “Because you won’t be able to stay here in the square for too long. Let’s move quickly. You posted in the notice that it would be broadcast after two days.”

    “Iing… I don’t want to broadcast… I want to play with him. Broadcasting is boring!!”

    One of them wrapped his arms around me and shouted at me.

    It was an action that would have been completely unimaginable if it had been done before.

    Over the past year, Hana has become accustomed to her cuteness like a girl her age.

    ‘I think Naharing’s good points are mixed in just the right amount.’

    I spoke as if to appease one of them.

    “But Oripiel even completed the broadcast setup in the hotel’s special room. There’s no problem tonight.”

    “Tonight… Ugh… That’s right… Even at night with you…”

    Hana bowed her head again.

    Due to the popularity of Naharing, the repercussions of the Rebirth Day closure are too great.

    So, it was decided to conduct a live broadcast at a luxury hotel owned by Oripeel.

    Instead, after the live broadcast ends. One will be spending the rest of the night with me.

    Although I am already a 21-year-old adult.

    For Hana, a night out with her lover seemed like something she couldn’t help but feel excited about.

    ‘Me too… same thing.’

    Still, I didn’t show it openly that I liked it so much.

    One is that he is a very popular celebrity.

    If I show off too well, my specialness may decrease.

    Of course, because he still has the power to feel the truth.

    It seems like he likes my tsundere behavior more.

    The two spent some time and then moved to a hotel.

    I was appropriately disguised with the Unknown Mask.

    One came out in her original form because she wanted to look the prettiest.

    The square was already full of bodyguards that Oriphiel had already placed there.

    And information manipulation will occur in real time.

    There was no need to worry about the two people heading to the hotel becoming known to the public.
