Although there was some commotion for a while due to the human elk, sunshade followers, and Hareubang No. 2, we arrived at the ‘Safe House’ on Jeju Island without much trouble.

“This is….”

[There is no other place as safe as here.]

“Auction House Hotel No.”

Desmond’s expression hardened for a moment when he saw the hotel visible through the window.

“Are you telling me to go into the hyena cage?”

It was a hotel in the middle of downtown Seogwipo, and at the main entrance of the hotel, the lobby, and the coffee shop next door, men and women with tired faces were waiting for someone.

“Crazy. The people I met as soon as I got off the plane in Gangwon-do are waiting there now.”

[No matter what country it is, polarizing reporters are polarizing. Moreover, after arriving in Jeju Island, no one has heard any news.]

The association will know.

Harubang No. 1 must have slowly come to his senses and testified that he was ambushed by someone while attacking Chairman Desmond.

However, the association could not have disclosed such information to reporters, and the reporters simply waited for Chairman Desmond to talk loudly at the hotel where the auction was taking place.

“Is this really why you asked me to rent a hotel suite for a month? Did you intend to come here from the beginning?”

[of course.]

“You got hit.”

[Still, you’re the chairman, but you can’t stay in an underground bunker in a motel or a place smaller than a studio room for a month, right? There is no room service either.]

“Geun. Is it to live underground for a month without people, or is it to live with civilization even if there are troublesome things to do?…”

[The car can be turned even now. Safe House is prepared for both.]

I put my hands on the steering wheel.

Desmond continued to look out the window, sipping coffee beyond the window, and staring at the reporters who were waiting in vain to see if Desmond would come to the hotel.

“Those people won’t attack me or anything like that, right?”

[I haven’t committed a crime, so of course this is the safest place. Isn’t that true just by looking at the hotel’s main entrance lobby?]

In front of the hotel, tangerine trees are lined up like street trees on both sides of the road leading to the place where cars stop for a moment.

[You will be safe from attackers. If you’re feeling uneasy, you can just wear a hallabong on top of your fedora. Or carrying around a box of tangerines.]

“……You mean carrying around a villain-only bomb. Surely, then there will be no burden.”

Tangerines are a dangerous item for villains.

At the same time, it is a dangerous item even for those who want to act like a villain.

[Many people will come to the hotel if they know that President Desmond is here. Rather, by spreading the word that you are here, you might be able to talk to many celebrities.]

“Contacting a celebrity…”

[It is about becoming ‘top’ against countless people in the world of politics and business, as well as people with S-level abilities. As a feather seller. All you have to do is act like Chairman Haeguneul.]

“…If I die, the feathers will be destroyed?”

[then.]

Feathers are in the safest place.

I hid the feather in a place only I knew.

I plan to keep the real item hidden until the day of the auction, and if anyone threatens or threatens me, I will immediately destroy the feather.

[The more you spread the rumor, the more people will come, and the asking price will naturally rise. Don’t forget. After Phoenix’s feathers are sold, all profits from the price are paid to Paygreen.]

“Without taxes.”

[That can’t be helped. Isn’t it cheaper to pay taxes in Korea than to pay taxes in the United States?]

“Sigh….”

Desmond is still worried as he glances at the people.

He looks nervous, wondering if there’s a villain in the mix or a hitman targeting him.

[Rest assured. This is a hotel managed by the Hero Association.]

“…Whew. I understand. It’s not my fault, and there’s no need to go in through the back door.”

President Desmond loosened his belt.

“Thank you. I was able to ride a car driven by a goblin and see a different side of this country. I will do my best in my role, so please spare my life if I die. Okay then. ”

[To get off?]

“You’re not going into the hotel wearing that mask, are you? All you have to do is take the suitcase in the trunk anyway, so there is no need to go all the way inside.”

Although the car had not yet entered the hotel, he appeared to be about to get out and walk.

“See you later.”

Clutching the smartwatch on his wrist, he confidently got out of the car and went outside.

“Okay. For this month, just think of me as Gates and Buffett.”

I opened the trunk door myself, took out my suitcase, and walked towards the hotel as if there was no problem.

“Huh? Hey, hey… he’s a foreigner!”

“Foreigner! old man! White hair! Check your face! Right? Wow, crazy, did you take a taxi and walk from far away?!”

Murmur.

“Excuse me! Are you Chairman Desmond Pagreen?!”

As Chairman Desmond, whose face was already known through the media, approached the hotel, people near the hotel began to approach the Chairman one by one and hold out Taegeuk watches.

“You are Chairman Desmond Paygreen, right?! Is the item being put up for auction this time really that feather?!”

“If the Phoenix Feather is correct, what is the path obtained?! Did you receive it from Phoenix during your lifetime?”

“Are you thinking about selling in a way other than an auction?!”

There is no order.

The reporters, who were close enough to touch Desmond, pushed their bodies towards Desmond.

“First of all, would you like to have some tea and talk inside?”

However, Desmond pointed inside the hotel in relaxed and fluent Korean.

“There is plenty of time to talk. Slowly, methodically. If you have any questions, talk about it inside…”

“I was waiting for you, Chairman.”

Young men in black suits pushed the reporters out with force and opened the way.

“What, what!”

“What are you guys doing now? Where are you touching! Where are you touching?”

The reporters shouted in anger at the agents in black suits who suddenly appeared, but the agents in suits made their way without blinking an eye.

“Would you mind unpacking and taking a moment? The Deputy Prime Minister for Economic Affairs will be here within 10 minutes.”

“Gyeo, Deputy Prime Minister for Economic Affairs…?”

When a government official was mentioned, the reporters looked at each other and took a step back.

“Huh, even the Deputy Prime Minister for Economic Affairs.”

“The President will come to Jeju Island in person next week.”

“……That much?”

“No problem. Isn’t it ‘that thing’ and nothing else?”

Even the president comes.

At those words, Desmond straightened his back and smiled kindly.

“Then, shall we first put down our burdens and talk?”

His face was full of composure, and he led a group of people into the hotel like a traveler playing the flute.

[As expected, he is the chairman of the group. He seemed nervous, but he immediately felt his position and became the leader.]

[…Not only the American president, but also the Korean president said he would come to Jeju Island to meet him, but of course he would not be aware of his power.]

Passasat.

Chaos-Seong Ji-eun released the protective shield covering his entire body and withdrew his condescension.

“But are you really okay? Even if the personal protection of Desmond Pagreen is entrusted to the Korean government, not to any other place.”

“Of course.”

I also untransformed and slowly turned the car around and exited the road.

“How much economic benefit can be generated by holding an auction in Jeju Island? There must be dozens of private planes coming to Jeju Airport right now, and how many people with special abilities, government agents, and entrepreneurs are consuming on Jeju Island.”

I feel sorry for those who come to Jeju Island for an extramarital trip, but I have no choice but to tell them to go somewhere else other than Jeju Island this summer.

“Wouldn’t it be much better for Jeju Island owners to have foreign guests spending at least 100 million won in a month than Korean guests spending 2 million won on a 4-day, 3-night trip to Jeju Island?”

“…Well, I guess so. People are coming to buy feathers that could be worth tens of billions of dollars or more, but they’re not going to stay in some shabby accommodation.”

“Millionaires gather together for a month and spend money recklessly, so of course the government should manage it.”

Above all.

“I smelled money not only in the country, but also in the shadow of the sun.”

Even Sunshade, who can do anything for profit, can now be actively used to protect Desmond.

“The two groups that have the most control over civilians in Korea are joining hands to protect Desmond, but he gets attacked? Then the auction is over.”

“If that happens, what will you do?”

“It’s okay. The government, the sun, and the association will make sure that never happens.”

I will truly risk my life to protect Desmond Fagreen.

“Why do we need to provide security ourselves? We should have fun at the pension too.”

There is no need for the organization’s executives to take turns watching over Desmond, and the government will directly assist Desmond.

A class agent will be there to provide security, and if Desmond wants to eat Hoengseong Korean beef over there, he will bring the cow directly from Hoengseong and slaughter it on Jeju Island.

Desmond is currently a ‘master’.

The foundation that gave him such power was, of course, the Phoenix feather.

“In order to protect Desmond with national tax money, I made some noise.”

“With the masterminds?”

“Yes.”

Desmond is.

“If Korea’s service sucks, they’ll go to Osaka, Japan and auction it off.”

I am American.
