Opening ceremony, 21 hours ago.

“Wow, the weather is cold.”

Kim Gwang-hyeon, the manager of Haeundae Park in Busan and a person with a D-level ability, shuddered at the management lighthouse built like a tall spire in Haeundae.

“The heater is pointless… Ugh, it’s cold even with layers of clothes on.”

The outside temperature shown on Taegeuk Watch was 12 degrees Celsius, but even if I breathed just for a moment inside the management room, my breath came out.

“Snow White is really great. The Olympics are not the Winter Olympics. Ugh….”

“Senior. Please be patient. All you have to do is hold on for the next 3 hours.”

Park Min-young, a fellow talented person and junior manager, handed warm canned coffee to Kim Gwang-hyeon.

“The after-time kids are coming in 3 hours, so I’ll just hang on until they come.”

“Ugh, if this continues, one of us might freeze to death.”

“He said that you just have to have a good heart.”

“What, I’m feeling the chill in Snow White’s ice castle because I’ve had a bad mind?”

“Then no?”

Park Min-young twitched the corners of her mouth and stretched out a can of coffee, while Kim Gwang-hyeon held the end of the can and frowned.

“If anyone hears it, they will think I know what you do? Huh?”

“It wasn’t? He said we should have a drink together after the end.”

“That’s because the weather is cold and there’s nothing better than alcohol to warm you up. Hey, do you know that I’m asking you to drink now just so I can do something with my favorite junior?”

“Lay your hand on your conscience.”

“Now.”

Gwanghyun Kim placed his right hand on his heart.

” I, Gwanghyeon Kim, offered alcohol to Minyoung Park out of approximately 19% selfish interest. Are you done?”

“…Hmm. Still, you didn’t forget the hero oath, right?”

“Okay then. So, are you going?”

“Um…I’ll give you the answer in three hours-”

“Wait.”

Gwanghyun Kim pointed to the surveillance camera.

“Didn’t something just pass by?”

“What is it?”

“Here. Rewind the video 30 seconds ago. Slow speed.”

Hearing Kim Gwang-hyun’s serious words, Park Min-young swallowed her saliva and replayed the CCTV footage.

and-

Puzzle!

The electricity in the management office went out.

All cameras turned black, and the only light inside was the Taegeuk watch strapped to the two people’s wrists.

“…….”

The moment when two people put their hands on their wrists at the same time.

Kwa—-!!

An explosion rang out.

The impact was strong enough to shake the entire management office, and the two people ran out of the management office at the same time.

“Can that be…?!”

“Quuk, as expected…! The one who flew in earlier was someone with special abilities!”

A ‘confrontation’ was unfolding in front of the two.

The yellow and purple colors quickly flashed together, forming a flash of light and hitting each other hard.

“Park Min-young! Go and request emergency support from the association! I’m going to stop them!”

“Senior! Are you crazy?! Those people are definitely S-class!”

“I am an agent of the Korea Hero Association!”

Kim Gwang-hyun headed to the center of binge drinking, scattering light with Taegeuk Watch.

“Ah! stop!! Money move!!!”

Although they shouted randomly out of urgency, the two S-class did not stop fighting.

Phew!

“Kuh?!”

“Senior, you’re bleeding!!”

“Don’t come!!”

Rather, he was hit directly on the forehead by a rock that flew as a result of the battle between the two, but Kim Gwang-hyeon pressed his forehead with his hand and moved forward.

“Stop!! No more fuss than this at the World Cup-”

[You can’t do that.]

At that moment, someone next to Kim Gwang-hyun stopped him.

[In such cases, this is what you should say.]

“Da, are you…Seonbital?”

Sunshade Breaker, Seonbital nodded his head once and stepped forward.

bang!

By lightly rolling on the floor, sand exploded forward on the white beach, and a sandstorm flew between the yellow and purple trails, forcing the two people to fall.

[iced coffee.]

On one side, a woman with blonde hair.

On the other side is a man with black hair.

Both appeared to be foreigners, and were staring at Seonbital while holding their respective weapons towards each other.

[The damn thing ends there. S-class.]

Seonbital, who slowly entered between the two S-class psychics, put the daegeum on his shoulder and extended one hand forward.

[If you want to fight like that, I will fight you.]

“…Ha. You seem to be a bit famous in Korea…”

“We were having a fair sparring.”

[Sparring in Haeundae at this late hour, right in front of the opening ceremony stadium? A passing dog must be laughing.]

Seonbital lightly twitched his outstretched hand as he scolded the two heroes.

[So that you can attend the opening parade, I’ll just break one or three ribs.]

“This is cheeky!!”

“How dare you…!!”

[It’s true that you see it as a sham.]

Whilick.

Gwanghyun Kim saw it.

[Be thankful. That I am still registered as a ‘villain’.]

When I heard Seonbital’s voice disappearing like the wind.

[If you were a hero and participated in the preliminaries, you would have been eliminated from the preliminaries.]

Baaah.

The two S-class heroes fell face-first onto the sandy beach of Haeundae and did not get up from their seats, unconscious.

[If I hadn’t come forward, you would have been in big trouble already.]

And Gwanghyun Kim saw it.

Puzzle!

Pink flames covering the sandy beach.

“Seonville!!”

[this. Did the fire fox come out?]

A true S-class hero from Korea who appeared by trapping two S-class heroes who caused a commotion in fox fire.

[Even if I refuse to attend, I have no intention of fighting with a pregnant woman. Just go away. There are a lot of things like this in other places as well.]

“Can you believe it?”

[I’ve been thinking about what kind of chicken to eat for the World Cup opening ceremony. Only if the opening ceremony is successful will I be able to eat chicken with peace of mind.]

Seonbital bowed his head in a graceful gesture and climbed on top of a horse that was approaching by running along the sandy beach.

[then. Hey!]

“…….”

Gwanghyun Kim saw it.

The back of Seonbital leaving Haeundae on a machine-like white horse.

“…Ha. headquarters. This is Firefox. The battle between two S-class players in Haeundae, Busan has ended. Yes, Seonbital came and knocked me out ‘again’.”

“…….”

Although he shouldn’t listen to S-class reports, Kim Gwang-hyun pricked up his ears to what Firefox Yoon I-seon said.

“Perhaps…?”

“Ah. that is. You were surprised.”

Firefox pointed at the two S-class heroes he had captured with an embarrassed look.

“They say it’s the last sparring before the opening game, but it’s a practice match, and talented people are causing a stir all over the country…”

All over the Korean Peninsula.

“We are sparring.”

The S-class members began to be active.

“Unauthorized.”

* * *

[Alas, the Korean Peninsula is full of accidents.]

No matter how hard you try to rest, there is no time to rest.

I leisurely soaked my whole body in the hot springs of Ulleungdo and tried to store all the mana I consumed in the external core while fighting 17:1, but I ended up having to get out of the water because I felt like I was charged to 97%.

[They’re just going around fighting all over the country.]

A disturbance broke out.

It would be nice if the heroes of each country were sparring with each other, but the ‘conflicts between heroes’ currently taking place in various parts of the Korean Peninsula are clearly intentional incidents of unrest.

[Those who are not even heroes participating in the World Cup.]

Either he is a villain, or he is a person with special abilities who has not been called upon by the country.

[Whoa, whoa.]

I stopped on the street, holding on to the brakes.

The dot shining on the death watch began blinking red right near Busan – east of Ulsan.

[Who else suddenly fights like this?]

I changed the direction I was going and set my destination to Ulsan.

-…Crawling cosmos! I’m going to Gyeongju! 5 minutes to Daereungwon!

-You have to go faster! Those guys fighting over there won’t know it’s the royal tomb!

-…Request support from Jinju!!

The hero has already arrived in the direction of Gyeongju where he was originally going, and it is too late to return to another place.

And above all, the Hero Association’s radio currently being intercepted has no knowledge of the ‘battle situation’ that Death Watch is aware of.

Perhaps they are really fighting quietly in a place where no one knows.

If not-

[I caught it.]

The white horse runs quickly down the road.

Previously, it was possible to drive on unpaved mountain roads, but now it is okay to drive on roads.

New baby ㅡㅡㅡ!!

It runs right next to the guardrail of the four-lane road, overtaking even cars speeding through the first lane, and heads straight to Ulsan.

I run to quell the unrest, but-

[jump.]

Tada-dak—!

Since Hi-Pass is not equipped, you have no choice but to jump over the toll booth.

“Huh?!”

It’s not that I don’t want to pay the bill, so I don’t pay it.

Although it is a violation of road traffic laws, it is inevitable for a peaceful World Cup opening ceremony.

The damage caused by the battle currently taking place in Ulsan will be greater than the Busan-Ulsan Hi-Pass fee that I did not pay.

And my prediction was not wrong.

Kwa-euang!

Black smoke began to rise from the large factory.

I wondered if a villain alarm was going off, but it was just a fire alarm going off loudly, not a villain or demon alarm.

Did an explosion occur due to an oil leak at a chemical industrial complex?

Did the vaporized oil ignite a cigarette and cause a plume of fire?

It would be nice if it was such a ‘simple’ accident, but this is a human disaster caused by a person with special abilities.

Crash.

After I stopped talking, I ran towards the place where the explosion occurred.

There was no one around, but where the red dot of the Death Watch was shining, two people with superpowers were confronting each other.

“Give me a sentence!”

“…….”

One sports black-haired superpower is burning flames in both hands, and the other is glaring at the young man with a bow made of magical power lowered.

Atalanta.

The emblem of awakening given to her by Do Ji-hwan, a patriotic general, is shining on her abdomen.

“This sentence will not be passed on. Especially for men.”

“Ha…! If so…!!”

The ‘hero’, a man with superpowers and presumed to be Chinese, gathered all the fireworks in his hands together as if he were putting his hands together.

“I, [Shin Yeom Hwang], will burn you and take only the skin with the emblem of awakening engraved on itㅡㅡㅡ!”

[Night raid.]

Baaah.
