Chapter Index

    After informing Ymir of his plan to become a light-winged puncher.

    -Then, let’s start producing it right away.

    -Just let the wheels roll.

    -We will make it as train-like as possible.

    -good. Platinum Sun. To the gold mine with King Taejo. In the meantime, I’ll make other preparations.

    Ymir took Taejo back to the Sinuiju gold mine and began making the golden train.

    Since I had enough time to leave with Taejo and the agents who came with him, I looked for another room in the meantime to eliminate another element of anxiety.

    Sigh.

    As soon as I opened the door and went inside, the inside was filled with the strong scent of Pu-erh tea.

    [This is a completely different attitude from Rasputin.]

    “S class should have class.”

    Cheonma Lee Ye-ryeong.

    She was not restrained and was sitting in a chair drinking tea in a calm manner.

    “If you go on a rampage and get caught again without any restraints like this, what could be more ugly than that?”

    [You know me well.]

    Unlike Rasputin, who resisted harshly, the Heavenly Demon meekly admitted his defeat.

    “So Mr. Chesed.”

    [Now he is a goblin.]

    “The goblin who is deceiving the world with Hesed. What are you going to do with me now?”

    [What do you think you will do?]

    “…….”

    When he answered the question with a question, the Heavenly Demon straightened his posture with calm eyes.

    “…Sigh. Kill it.”

    [I never thought I would hear that line here.]

    “What?”

    [No, it’s nothing.]

    In some fantasy, I was dumbfounded for a moment as the Heavenly Demon was saying what a female knight captured by a group of orcs would say.

    [Do you know what I will do and tell you to kill me?]

    “You plan to subdue me like this, erase my memory, humiliate me, and turn me into a mass production factory for people with superpowers.”

    weird.

    In this world, there would be fewer subversive books like that in order to manage the mental health of many people compared to modern times, but the Heavenly Demon was strangely familiar with that aspect.

    [Mass production factory for people with special abilities?]

    “Okay. Like what happened in Thailand, they’ll lock me up somewhere, cut off my limbs, and turn me into a being who produces people with special abilities every 10 months. Erase your memories, put something on your head, and only think about happy thoughts for the rest of your life so you can’t wake up to reality!”

    [Why do we do such devilish things? The association does not do such things.]

    “…….”

    It looks like he doesn’t believe it at all.

    He may not have been brainwashed, but he can be said to be flexible in his thinking to the extent that he took his family into exile in China because Korea is a mess, but his head is filled with devilish ideas to the extent of being suspicious.

    “So, are you planning on selling me out to the Korean government? Who is your opponent? Commitment? Cheok Jun-kyung? Or Taejo? Or, all three?”

    [Is there a lustful devil in my head?]

    “It’s not something the devil heard, it’s reality.”

    The Heavenly Demon gritted her teeth at me with a look of complete despair on her face, but with a heart full of boiling dissatisfaction.

    “Isn’t Korea trying to get any woman with special abilities pregnant in order to give birth to someone with special abilities?”

    [If you try to only look at the bad side, you will only see that part. Isn’t that also the case in China, where you went into exile?]

    “…….”

    The Cheonma bit her lower lip.

    At my point, she lowered her head as if she was in tears for the first time.

    [There is a saying like that. There is no paradise where you run away. You left for China for your family, but you probably saw similar scenes where you left.]

    “…….”

    [What you just said, are you giving me information?]

    “……!”

    The Heavenly Demon raised his head.

    The brown eyes began to tremble seriously, and her eyes began to be colored with astonishment.

    “Well, what is that.”

    [I think so. Humans are capable of more vicious acts than devils. There was a real devil in Thailand, but humans are capable of acting like such devils.]

    “…….”

    [The devil is everywhere. Something like that happened in Korea, and it could happen in China as well. Well, isn’t it the same wherever humans live?]

    I was sure.

    This woman is shaking now.

    [Once you receive the money, you have to pay for it, but this is what happens every time you receive that money and enjoy it.]

    “What.”

    [The last remaining conscience.]

    “…….”

    Losing to me is a defeat, but at the root of that defeat is the anxiety of being put in a situation where you don’t know where to go.

    [If I feel like this huge amount of money I receive is sucking someone’s hard work, I can’t easily use that money. However, when you see a family living happily without knowing anything and enjoying happiness based on that money, you tend to close your eyes again.]

    “…….”

    [It seems like you have a lot of concerns in many ways. When fighting, my eyes are clear, but when I’m not fighting, my eyes are cloudy.]

    “It’s noisy. Don’t tell other people to do this or that in their lives. Unless you’re going to solve it.”

    [If there was a solution that could get rid of both the 500 trillion won debt and the image of a traitor, would you be on the side of death?]

    Startle.

    The Heavenly Demon’s fingers twitched for a moment.

    [I know you well. Lee Ye-ryeong. Because my family was almost murdered by the Korean government, I took my family and escaped to China, but when I arrived in China, I realized that it was no different from Korea.]

    “……The information power of the organization is amazing. So, are you staying quiet even though you know?”

    [I’m not staying still. The association always does its best, there are just priorities.]

    “……If it were like before, I would have questioned it right away and listened to it. There are people dying right now, so where is the priority?”

    Cheonma is secretly hot-tempered.

    But at the same time, she is a cool-headed woman.

    “Is it because of the devil from ‘Pandemonium’ or something?”

    [Yes.]

    Perhaps because he saw and heard what happened in Thailand from the side, Cheonma seems to have his own understanding of the actions of a desperate man.

    [With a chronic shortage of manpower, we are doing our best to eliminate demons rather than humans.]

    Why can’t we intervene in East Asian affairs right away?

    If we think about what happened in Duoksini and what happened in Thailand, we come to the ‘reasonable’ conclusion that subduing demons before humans is a priority.

    [The target that the organization seeks to eliminate as a top priority is the devil. And then there are humans who behave like devils. However, the association always suffers from a chronic shortage of manpower.]

    “That’s because you guys transform people into heroes.”

    [If you know that much, conversation will be easier.]

    I took out two pills in front of Cheonma and placed them on the left and right.

    “Red pill, blue pill?”

    [I’ll give you a choice.]

    “What is it, goblin trix? Are you asking me to make a choice?”

    […Do you know? It’s quite a classic.]

    “Because it’s famous.”

    The Heavenly Demon stretched out his hand in front of the red pill and the blue pill.

    “So, Mr. Dophius. Why are you treating me like this?”

    The Heavenly Demon began to stare at me.

    “If you want, you can erase my personality, change my nationality again, and make me loyal to Korea. But why does it seem to me that something, rather than something like that, wants a whole being like me to change its mind?”

    [Because it can be destroyed most naturally if you move arbitrarily.]

    “……I don’t know what the target is.”

    The Cheonma grabbed the blue pill with her hand.

    “At least, I will live an ugly life, even if it means becoming a brainwashed soldier who has no ego and is controlled by someone.”

    He crushed the blue pill with his grip and put the red pill into his mouth.

    “…Candy?”

    [It tastes like strawberry. For reference, that one is blueberry flavored.]

    “It wasn’t like I just woke up and came to my senses in a new world…?”

    [I’m sorry. This world is not a cybernetic world, but reality.]

    Although it is a world created based on the Gukppong light novel, this world is a stark reality.

    [I’ll tell you because I took the red pill. A way to cover all your actions, the thing you care about the most, with ‘patriotism.’]

    “…….”

    [The group ultimately plans to overthrow this country as well. Just like America, we plan to transform it into a place governed by associational rule and order. There are a lot of things that are just a little annoying, and it takes time, but one day, it will definitely lead the world to peace.]

    Even if the method is radical, twisted, and deceiving the world.

    [The world doesn’t know why you abandoned Korea and went into exile.]

    “Are you going to announce that? …no. Then, my parents will collapse again.”

    The Heavenly Demon’s complexion turned pale.

    “If I knew that my only daughter suffered something like that…”

    [do not worry. That will never become known. You just have to act as a ‘hero’ like everyone else.]

    “…What are you trying to do?”

    [To put it simply, a whistleblower.]

    I lightly tapped the area where the red pill was placed with my finger.

    [You were actually a dark hero who took it upon himself to cover himself with filth for the sake of justice.]

    “……Explain in detail.”

    [Become China’s hero and uncover China’s secrets. In the future, when the rebellion completely overturns the China of this world, the Heavenly Demon will proudly step forward. As a ‘hero’.]

    “…….”

    [Even if you are covered in filth for a few years, there is a way to regain your honor and become a hero someday. If we join hands with the association.]

    I extended my fist towards the Heavenly Demon.

    [You, let’s do something together with me.]

    ah.

    Does this mean that when I die, the Heavenly Demon will permeate there as is?

    “So what is that?”

    […Hmm. therefore.]

    Operation name.

    An unimaginable identity.

    […The person who cooperated with the pro-Japanese faction was actually an independence activist.]

    Treason is washed with patriotism.
