Chapter Index

    Body swapping requires a target.

    If the condition of the target is ‘body’, then of course it is impossible to use this ability without a body.

    [I’m sorry.]

    I just sat down on the sofa.

    He crossed his legs, holding the glass containing the liquor with one hand, and lifted the glass with his goblin bat slung over his shoulder.

    [Have a drink. Because today is the anniversary of the death of human Choi Ho-jeong.]

    “You bastard!!”

    Hojeong Choi rushes towards me again.

    But he just passed right through me, and he knocked over the sofa I was sitting on and rolled on the floor.

    Wow!

    At the same time, the glass containing the liquor fell to the floor and broke.

    As the red carpet became soaked with alcohol, I got up and headed back to the minibar.

    [Do you know that even if you break a suite like this, you have to compensate?]

    “You bastard…! What the hell…!”

    [You seem curious. How is this all happening?]

    I pointed to myself.

    [Let me introduce. Ghost goblin. It is an alter ego created with magical power.]

    “Boo, alter ego…?!”

    [It is an alter ego made only of mana. The actual body is not here. You may not understand because you are an old man, but do you know it is ‘Avatar’?]

    “…Acorn?”

    [Tsk.]

    also.

    Would it be absurd to use an analogy for content that has not yet appeared in a world that has been changed by cataclysm?

    Or did he get a strange answer because the old man was a mold, or because it was one of the business items he had ruined?

    [Now that I am a person with special abilities, I will tell you a story. This is not my real body. I only sent my soul here.]

    “Woah, your soul…! Is that possible-”

    [You can’t believe you say something like that even while wearing the body of someone with superpowers. This is absurd.]

    He tried to change the soul himself, but he doesn’t believe that I actually sent the soul from afar.

    [This is so foolish. It’s a shamefully foolish situation to have mobilized all of this to this extent.]

    “Everyone, shut up…! You, you…!”

    [Do you feel like you are being played? now? I don’t understand. If you’ve been deceiving the world so much all this time, why are you so angry about being deceived yourself?]

    Coo coo coo.

    The barrier begins to shrink further.

    [You really are an incomprehensible seed. Is everything in this world your tool?]

    “Sounds obvious…!”

    Hojeong Choi clenches his fists and shouts.

    “I am the master of this world! The sun’s shadow spreads across the world, and I am at the center of the global world!”

    [Is your dream of conquering the world?]

    “Some people who play house with the world just because they were born with this ability talk about world domination and all that, so is there a law preventing me from doing that?”

    [There is a point. This isn’t a game of house, but I’m serious about it.]

    I thought about it.

    In any case, sunshade and association are incompatible.

    [To those who see everything but themselves as tools, our actions may seem like playing house. I am an optimist who pursues ideals and does not look at reality.]

    “Hehe, yes…! Reality is not that soft…!”

    Choi Ho-jeong grabbed the boat.

    Although he harmed himself before changing his body, his body recovered quickly.

    “Do you think the world will quietly watch the commotion that occurred here? The executives of the organization came out in full force and set up a barrier, but will the world remain silent? ”

    [I’m sorry, but I can handle all of that as well.]

    “Well, what…”

    [As always, you would think humans would turn out to watch these unrest.]

    Looking at fire, looking at water, looking at fighting, isn’t the best looking at seeing special abilities?

    [Citizens who come out to film, people who watch without their cow-haired heads, and people who are agitated by the chaos and run riot without order. Among them are the agents of the sunshade.]

    “!!”

    [It’s obvious.]

    It was there in the original too.

    [Isn’t he going to disguise himself as someone with a sense of justice and then try to break the barrier from the outside by saying, ‘I’ll join the fight too!’]

    “How…how did you do that…!”

    [I think I would do that.]

    Actually, that’s how it went in the original.

    It’s not the first time that the protagonist and heroines have set up a barrier outside to trap the devil, but Sunshade has interfered in order to use the devil.

    [I’m sorry, but we’re serious about catching you, so we’ve used every means possible. Would you like to see it?]

    Crackling.

    I turned on the TV in the suite, then connected the magic signal to the outside and turned on the video.

    “Well, that is…!”

    [There is no confusion as you think.]

    Outside, Gwanghwamun was deathly quiet.

    [The only thing that exists is control of chaos.]

    In the four directions of the burning barrier, S-class heroes are aiming their weapons right in front of the barrier.

    [There are four S-class people standing at the front, so if there is someone who can cross the cordon and start playing tricks.]

    That person.

    [Dog in the shade of the sun. A person who can be dealt with mercilessly.]

    The barrier continues to shrink.

    * * *

    At that time, near Gwanghwamun, Seoul.

    “It’s amazing.”

    Jeong Ki-jo, the president of the Hero Association, looked up at the fire unfolding on the top floor of a hotel near Gwanghwamun and stuck out his tongue.

    “I never thought I would collaborate with you.”

    [Because it destroys the sunshade. This is quite serious?]

    The voice coming through the radio carried by the president of the association was a modulated voice.

    [Don’t forget the conditions. Take good care of yourself so that strange people don’t come in.]

    “Ah, of course. They laid the board down like this, but we can’t just let someone get away and do strange things. How many S-class people are here now?”

    The president of the association looked around.

    The number of S-class heroes guarding the hotel is as many as four.

    “Armored Taejo, Baridegi, Firefox, and Noeje. …Isn’t that a combination that was made there, not here?”

    [well. I don’t know what you’re talking about. Those four people are even cooperating with our organization? I hope so.]

    The person on the other end of the phone smiled lowly and joked about the association president’s sarcasm.

    [The Taessi siblings have a political grudge against Sunshade, and Firefox and Thunder Emperor just happened to be near Seoul. It is natural for S-class people to manage the field in such a dangerous situation.]

    “…Then.”

    The president of the association swallowed his saliva and pointed upward.

    “Is that really possible? Seriously?”

    [of course. I didn’t wait for this day for nothing. The moment Choi Ho-jeong abandoned his body, all conditions were already met. For the rest, you just have to ‘cheat’ in moderation.]

    “They are blatantly calling it a scam…”

    fraud.

    The target is the entire nation.

    “They even mobilized the Gwangyukgi and sought cooperation from the entire nation, so what if something goes wrong?”

    [Please rest assured that we have now asked for cooperation from Gwangikgong to prevent any mistakes.]

    Currently, there is no one on the streets of Gwanghwamun.

    Although there are people crowded in front of the glass windows inside the building, no one goes out into the street and takes pictures by pointing the Taegeuk Watch at the suspicious fireworks spread out in the hotel.

    -Notice to Seoul citizens. The current situation is real. Please don’t go out on the streets….

    Not a loud villain alarm, but a young man’s voice that is pleasant to listen to.

    In response to the serious voice of a young man who has never been exposed to the public, citizens are exercising self-control without anyone acting recklessly.

    “…Okay. Since we are mobilizing light-wing workers to handle the work, of course it should go well. It was not a siren, but a light-wing aircraft alarm…”

    [Such a serious situation. Hehehe, it’s really convenient in times like this. That guy.]

    The president of the association was a little shaken by the action of trying to use the Gwangyukgong like a useful tool, but he calmed down while thinking about the status of the ‘enemy’, his strategy, and the consequences of this ‘summoning the Gwangyukgong’.

    “…Mistakes are not tolerated. As this is a battle involving wide-armed fighters, there should not be any ‘casualties’. Civilian casualties, never.”

    [of course. Do you think you’ll make a mistake here? Rather, you should be good at blocking it, right?]

    Still, blue flames are embroidered in the sky, burning as if the sky is on fire.

    [The S-class members must act as a barrier so that the ‘Sunshade Spies’ who come to rescue Choi Ho-jeong do not act erratically and cause trouble. Only then will it be worth sending three…no, four of us, including the goblin.]

    “I understand. Let me ask you one last question.”

    After observing the surroundings, the president of the association asked very quietly into the radio.

    “…Really, can you ‘come back’ once this is over?”

    [of course. If all goes well according to the goblin’s plan. It may be a little too ‘chaotic’, but please do your best. Our kids…don’t bother them.]

    Pop.

    Radio contact was lost.

    The president of the association gently closed his eyes and grabbed the radio, then immediately stretched out his hand with his wrist covered with a wide golden cloth.

    Fazizik.

    [President of the Association! What is this! Suddenly it’s a light wing call!!]

    [That blue flame, is it terrorism?! I’ll run now!]

    As soon as the golden cloth was taken away, all kinds of signals started coming towards the association president.

    “I tell this to everyone. Move as instructed. Don’t be lazy. Don’t act arbitrarily, and never act rashly. Only move as instructed.”

    Using a forceful voice against the heroes, the president of the association warned all the heroes running to Seoul.

    “This is the actual situation where the light wing call has rang. If there is someone who does something foolish…”

    The president of the association.

    “I will regard you as a traitor to humanity who pretends to be a hero and tries to help the enemy, the ‘devil.’ ”

    A clear warning was issued to prevent everyone from daring to come forward.

    “Do not intervene. Those who intervene will all be criminals.”

    * * *

    “Hehe, hehe, hehehe…!”

    Choi Ho-jeong starts shaking and laughing.

    [You’re crazy.]

    “No, no. You’re the one who’s crazy. This ability is truly amazing. And you…”

    Choi Ho-jeong glared at me and pointed at me with his finger.

    “Then, all you have to do is change your soul.”

    […….]

    “Isn’t it okay to just change the soul, not the body that resides in the body? Now, your soul is empty, right? Hehe, then…!”

    Hojeong Choi extends his hand to me.

    “I will trap you in this body, and I will become a spirit and escape this barrier to take over your body! Changeㅡㅡㅡ!”

    Choi Ho-jeong’s wish.

    “……again?”

    [I’m sorry.]

    It didn’t come true.

    [You believe exactly what the enemy says.]

    “Well, that can’t be possible…! The soul change was successful! Look! As proof, I am now in your spiritual body… Huh?”

    Hojeong Choi lowered his head by the wrist of my ‘former spirit’.

    “Why are you… your voice, speaking from your wrist…”

    [The call is over. My soul was stolen, I suffered.]

    Slur.

    [I will use the body of the bodyguard you created well.]

    Not me.

    [Humanity’s strongest hero.]
