Chapter Index

    When too much happens at once, people have a hard time keeping up with the issues.

    Even if it is an issue that everyone in the world is interested in, if it has nothing to do with making a living, there is no reason to be interested.

    However, it is different if it has to do with the rice bowl.

    -With KOSPI falling to the 2500 level every day…

    -Due to the decline in the value of the won….

    -The Bank of Korea said the base interest rate should be raised to 1.25%, a big step of raising it by 0.25%….

    economic crisis.

    The Korean economy, which had been enjoying an unprecedented golden age economically, began to stagnate.

    Neighboring countries are talking about the bubble bursting and the soup disappearing.

    In the past, people could have said, ‘How dare you?’, but the ‘sunshade shock’ that hit the entire Korean economy is still ongoing.

    -No, we have to proceed like this?!

    -If we do that now, there will be even more confusion! From a more conservative perspective…

    -A crisis is an opportunity! If we stay still, we’ll be eaten right away!

    It started with companies that removed the sunshade and designed new logos.

    I did my best to erase the sun, but in reality, everything in the company belongs to the sun.

    Even the business card, except for the fact that it was Haegeuneul, the name, number, and work email address were all Haegeuneul’s, so changing it overnight was physically time-consuming.

    -Damn it, Executive Director Hwang. After becoming the boss, he runs wild like a madman?

    -He thinks he is in that position because he is good at it. Do you know who the most incompetent person is? He’s a good person with no abilities at all.

    -That guy is better suited to be a managing director than a president.

    No matter how many bad things the Choi family did, it does not mean they lacked managerial skills.

    -Then, are you going to become Manager Kim of the Choi family again?

    -That sounds crazy. In that case, I’d rather just lecture the executive director. Do business on a global level!

    -What are you trying to shoot? A letter? Or are you trying to stab the blinds? Did you think it was spring only after the flowers withered? Arthur. If I’m going to be the Choi family’s slave, I’ll just fry chicken outside.

    However, no one wants the Haeguneul owner family to return.

    We’ve been used to the cold winter for such a long time that we all feel awkward because of the warmth of spring, but we’ll definitely get used to it over time.

    The winter that felt like walking on thin ice is over.

    A time when the sun’s shadow over the entire peninsula disappears and warm sunlight gradually covers the Korean peninsula from the south.

    Here, a man is at a library in Busan.

    “…….”

    The black-haired man in the suit was wearing sunglasses even though it was inside a library.

    Even if it’s okay to give in and wear sunglasses indoors, it’s okay to mainly read ‘special ability novels’ in front of the new book section.

    It was a rare scene to see the S-class hero, [Firefox], like no one else, sticking right next to me like a bodyguard.

    Those who are busy erasing the traces of Sunshade, those who have been holding their breath under Sunshade for a while and then step forward to take first place in the industry, and those who do not know Sunshade and bet on who will win if two talented people come together are all men. Look through.

    A man who doesn’t seem to have a special ability, but who also seems to have a special ability.

    It is said that the best stallion that Korea is proud of is that it is said that it did not give magic power to God, but instead gave it stamina.

    There is a man called ‘Do Ji-hwan’.

    Now, the world has become dizzy due to the shock of the sunshade, so the popularity has diminished, but the popularity of a man named Do Ji-Hwan has not completely disappeared.

    chamberlain-

    “Hey, excuse me.”

    A female librarian in a suit cautiously approached the man believed to be Do Ji-hwan.

    The fire fox behind his back glared at the female librarian with a twinkle in his eye, but the librarian tried to ignore his gaze and approached Do Ji-hwan.

    “Are you Do Ji-hwan?”

    “…Oh, yes.”

    The man obediently admitted that he was Do Ji-hwan.

    It seemed as if he had no intention of hiding it in the first place, and he had the same appearance that most people would think of when they think of Do Ji-hwan.

    A young man in a black suit.

    It’s hard to see because of the sunglasses, but his eyes definitely look like he’s smiling.

    “Well, would it be rude if I asked if the rumor was true?”

    “Excuse me.”

    The one who answered the librarian’s question was Yun I-seon, the fire fox behind him.

    “Teacher, you came here to look for materials related to special abilities, not to discuss gossip.”

    “Well, that is…”

    The librarian pointed outside the front door of the library with a tearful expression on his face.

    “I am also a civil servant, so the director…”

    “…….”

    Outside the window.

    The people filling the front of the library are talking enthusiastically to the camera, pointing towards the library with excited faces.

    “This is in front of Busan Central Library. Do Ji-hwan, the ‘patriot’ of Hero Snow White, visits the library, and the site is full of citizens who came to see him.”

    “Hello, this is Heo Ki-woo from Wooqi TV! S-class hero Firefox came to take a picture of Baek Seol-hee’s patriot Do Ji-hwan, the man assigned as his escort! Good for video production….”

    It is full of reporters and Cyber Wrecka.

    It’s not like any celebrity has come, it’s just an ordinary person coming with an S-class hero, but people are making a fuss.

    It’s not that someone is manipulating public opinion.

    It’s not like Hae-neum is alive and sending subcontracted employees to take advantage of Do Ji-hwan to create public opinion.

    It is not the case that a specific group pretends to be passionately interested in Do Ji-hwan in order to create an image of him.

    “I will ask Seonbital, who was passing by. Why did you come here today?”

    “I came to see Do Ji-hwan. First of all, isn’t it the first ‘Patriotic Cultural Heritage’ designated by the country?”

    The answers from those wearing sunglasses, which were often seen around them, were shocking, and the sound came through the cracks in the closed glass windows, giving up on ventilation, filling the library with noise.

    “Is it because of what you just said that you came to see me, librarian?”

    “…I’m sorry. Well, I know I’m really sorry, but I know that the library is an open space for all citizens…!”

    The librarian was on the verge of tears, and Do Ji-hwan put down the book in his hand with a bitter smile.

    “What do you want to ask?”

    “Is that true? That…”

    The librarian blushed and looked back.

    Those who had already entered the library’s reading room were putting silent pressure on the librarian, and even a middle-aged man with glasses who looked like a director had come down to the entrance of the reading room.

    “…That so-called, being patriotic makes you stronger…”

    “…….”

    “Teacher. Just go. Later, through people from the association, they come on closed days.”

    “I think it should be so. sorry. Because it’s privacy.”

    Do Ji-hwan, who politely refused to answer the librarian’s question, walked out of the library, following Yun I-seon who was leading the way.

    “Do Ji-hwan! Is it true?!”

    As soon as we leave the reading room and the parking lot behind the library, reporters rush in.

    “Look at this.”

    “People are curious!”

    Yoon Yi-seon frowns and looks around, but even though the small girl tries to glare, the reporters stretch out the Taegeuk watch on her wrist and force Do Ji-hwan to answer.

    “Is it really true that the patriotic act with Mr. Do Ji-hwan has a significant meaning in improving the abilities of people with special abilities?”

    “There are rumors going around that America’s hero ‘Red Rider’, who spent a night with Do Ji-hwan, has [awakened]! Likewise, the Japanese media speculated that the awakening of the Japanese hero ‘Nadeshiko’ was thanks to Do Ji-hwan…!”

    “Perhaps even in the ‘resurrection’ of Gwangikgong-”

    “I’m sorry, but I’m just a citizen. Today I just came to borrow a book about management and self-development.”

    Do Ji-hwan’s voice, speaking calmly in front of reporters, contained a slight annoyance.

    “This is nonsense. Just because you do something like me, there’s no way that this ability will become stronger. ”

    “But in reality, Baek Seol-hee…”

    “That means her desire to protect people is revealed through this ability. That’s just speculation. Mr. Yoon I-seon? Sorry, but…”

    “There’s nothing to be sorry about.”

    Hwareuk.

    As the pink flame spread around Yun Yi-seon, she soon grew into a tall woman and grabbed Do Ji-hwan’s waist.

    “Then.”

    Ta—ah.

    Seeing the man and woman who quickly jumped into the sky and disappeared, the reporters pointed their Taegeuk Watch at them and continued filming.

    “Write it.”

    Citizens only tilted their heads in suspicion as they watched Yoon I-seon and Do Ji-hwan disappear, avoiding the crowds with their superior S-class physical abilities.

    “I think that’s right….”

    “You too, right? Of course, Do Ji-hwan is the secret. Isn’t it because of Do Ji-hwan and things like that that the Emperor became stronger?”

    “As expected, he is a patriotic craftsman…. Does this mean he is equivalent to Patriotic Cultural Asset No. 1?”

    fluttering.

    In front of the library, the Taegeukgi is fluttering in the wind, proving that it is a building belonging to the administration.

    * * *

    “You can’t freely look through new books in the library. I never thought my daily life would be taken away like this.”

    It may be surprising, but I, Do Ji-hwan, who became Baek Seol-hee’s lover, have ceased to be an ordinary citizen.

    “What do you think, Baek Seol-hee, who was judged SS level.”

    “Not really.”

    “Specifically?”

    “Rather than finding out that Do Ji-hwan is a goblin, a scholar, or Do Ji-hwan, if you say that he is just a person with special abilities without magical power, then it is natural that he cannot lead a daily life.”

    Baek Seol-hee spoke calmly about me.

    “When Baek Seol-hee asked me what was the secret to the SS-level specs that froze the Haeshauneul headquarters, I simply said that thanks to Do Ji-hwan’s patriotism, my physical abilities and magical powers had advanced further. How can a hero lie to citizens?”

    “That’s right. That’s true, but…”

    “They say that this is how the ‘rags’ will come out. Patriotic craftsman, Yas Master Do Ji-hwan.”

    I, Do Ji-hwan.

    “There are talented women lining up to get a taste of soup before the World Cup.”

    He became a national public figure and patriotic craftsman.

    in short.

    I became a ‘gukppong’.
