A huge bomb exploded early in the morning.

-North Korea was in inland China!

This is a ridiculous, truly absurd story.

No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t believe it, but the sudden emergence of up to 10 million people from underground near the Taedong River became an issue powerful enough to overturn the issue of the World Cup.

How could such a large organization exist underground?

What was the reason why you were able to avoid getting caught until now?

How was it possible for humans to obtain the resources and environment needed to live underground?

President Tae Chae-jin personally appeared in front of a TV screen and made an announcement, but people could hardly believe the news and Internet articles.

“So, are you saying that the North Koreans were secretly hiding in inland China, that Cheonma proclaimed himself a traitor for the special operation sent from Korea to China, and that he found out where the North Koreans were hiding and immediately annihilated the North Koreans? By using association?”

If we were to convey it through short news that lasts about 1 minute, it could be summarized that way.

“How about just saying that this world is a world in a game? What kind of absurd situation could happen!”

Citizens were in confusion.

Although an unbelievable situation occurred, it is also true that up to 10 million citizens immediately appeared near Pyongyang.

Nationalities were also diverse.

There were also people who went missing while traveling or on a business trip to China.

After the fall of Pyongyang, there were refugees from North Korea who went to China.

There was also a person who rebelled against a political force within China and then disappeared as an anti-government figure.

And there were children who were born in the underground and grew up under the ruling system of a North Korean monster leader named ‘Kim Jo-seon’, learning that ‘His Majesty the Lord is using a law to abolish land!’

“Even if the world goes crazy, there is a limit. Isn’t this too much?”

The moment so much information and events were revealed overnight, the world was filled with fear and astonishment.

Of course, it wasn’t as shocking as a huge building being hit by an airplane attack.

To be more precise, I heard that such an airplane terrorist attack was actually planned, but that it was successfully put down by some talented people.

It is not an exaggeration to say that the number of hostages rescued was not the size of an airplane, but the size of a country.

In the midst of so much confusion, people began to focus their minds on what they thought was important.

That first one.

“So, Cheonma was a hero?”

Cheonma Lee Ye-ryeong.

I thought he was a traitor, but it turned out that he was a hero who had been stigmatized himself.

Those who were interested in this ability had no choice but to focus on the Heavenly Demon.

* * *

Shoot!

After passing through the current, we reach the Daedong River.

Numerous people have already landed in Pyongyang and are being cared for by dispatched soldiers to keep their wet bodies warm.

“This is the end of my role. Okay then. ”

The Blue Comet, which created an undersea tunnel extending from Cheonghae Lake to the Taedong River into an undersea waterway, attempted to leave the Korean Peninsula as soon as it arrived at the exit.

[Is it okay if I don’t go meet my sister?]

“…I have done something to meet you.”

Does he still feel ashamed of what he tried to do, or is it not so, but meeting Do-cheol itself is uncomfortable?

“After the World Cup is over, please contact me when you come to Japan. Let’s make a reservation at a top-class ryokan.”

[I think it’s worse than Ulleungdo Hot Springs.]

“A ryokan that allows outdoor mixed bathing.”

[That’s quite appealing.]

It would be rude to refuse an offer like that.

Even though he had to go from Japan to inland China and go through the trouble of crossing the West Sea, it was a fairly cheap deal for covering up what he was trying to do.

“…There must have been Japanese among those kidnapped by the Joseon Union. It’s a very small number, but I hope they take good care of it.”

[If there are any living Japanese, we will do our best to return them to their home country. Even if you used Korean underground for a long time, it would be much more comfortable to live in your hometown.]

“…I will prepare in my own way. Then, I will finish clearing the road.”

The blue comet entered the waterway again.

Although it is said that they used the water source of Cheonghae Lake, the power of an S-class psychic, and the ‘will to save people’, the 2,000km underwater waterway is clearly a problematic area.

Coo coo coo.

It vibrates.

While the blue comet swims against the current and heads back towards Cheonghae Lake, the undersea tunnel will collapse due to an unexplained explosion inside, rendering it unusable forever.

‘We need to look into the area connected to Jeju Island as well.’

Just in case, the departure route for the undersea tunnel has been expanded to three locations, and the undersea tunnel leading to Jeju Island and Incheon has already been blocked by Chaos Seong Ji-eun.

It means that two roads at the tunnel intersection are blocked, but if that part is used well, it could be made into an undersea tunnel between Incheon and Jeju Island.

In other words, the other tunnels are currently being destroyed by a blue comet.

You never know.

We have no intention of doing so, but they might later use the undersea tunnel to infiltrate agents.

At a time when people are already aware that we have injected an agent called ‘Cheonma’ into China, there is no law preventing them from doing the same thing.

On the contrary, he might do something even worse.

[Is the situation here being properly resolved?]

Using my spirit form, I avoided people’s gaze and looked around the place decorated like an emergency aid station.

“…Thank you for your cooperation. We’ll find out as soon as we can, but please prepare yourselves. Because 7 years was a very long time…”

“Just knowing that you are alive is enough. What kind of man didn’t get stranded on a desert island and survive with only a volleyball as his friend? So, even if my wife started a new family and my daughter got a new father…”

“…….”

Soldiers, people with special abilities, and volunteers who had been dispatched in a hurry were working hard to identify the escapees from Hell Joseon in a hastily spread tent.

“So, here, in the outside world, there are countless people with special abilities? Are you saying that if you are born with this ability, you are not a nobleman?”

“Yeah, right. That’s right. There is no such thing as status here.”

“Are you saying that if you are born to non-Korean parents, there is no such thing as untouchability or a low class citizen?”

“Yeah, that’s true too. …I’d rather ask. What kind of world was that?”

Reporters and volunteers are talking to young children around 10 years old.

It wasn’t just the kidnapped adults who escaped from Hell Joseon, there were also children who were born there.

“Oh, that’s right. There is actually something here. People are discriminated against because they are Korean, not because they are Korean.

If you make a mistake, you could end up in a situation where strange ideas can be introduced.

“Lady! What are you doing!”

“Tch…. Let’s talk with you one more time later?”

“That, that! Ugh. Forget everything she said. The lady will tell you in detail. What is your name?”

The situation did not seem to be much of a problem as volunteers from the ‘National Association of State Councilors’, an unidentified women’s group that volunteered in large numbers in Kaesong, spoke appropriately to the children.

‘It seems like the other executives have gone to their respective places.’

They needed rest.

Through the text messages and photos I received through Death Watch, I was able to confirm that Hye-ra Yoon went straight to Ulleungdo with the other three and just entered the hot springs.

The rest is just meeting and talking with the person who played a role in bringing in these refugees.

‘They said they were coming up to Seoul on the early morning train, so it should be quick.’

I escaped the crowd and ran south.

Since I was running using this ability, the magic consumption was a little high, but I arrived in Seoul in 30 minutes, consuming all the magic power of one outer core.

The destination is Yeouido, Seoul.

Although it is a fairly old hotel, it has been remodeled for the World Cup season, and the hotel’s suites look quite fancy and nice on the outside.

[Hello.]

“Hi!”

As soon as he entered the suite in spirit form, the startled Cheonma and Lee Ye-ryeong quickly looked around.

“You were surprised! What if there was someone there!”

[He showed up because he confirmed that no one was there. Anyway, it looks more comfortable that way.]

The sight of him screaming in surprise was probably the true appearance of Lee Ye-ryeong, the Heavenly Demon.

[How do you feel?]

“Uh, um…. They say people change in the morning and evening, but isn’t this a bit too much?”

Cheonma scratched her cheek and pointed to Yeouido Square visible below the suite.

“At night in Haeundae, there were only swear words directed at Cheonma, but now…”

-You’re the best, Cheonma!!

-Hey, I believed it!

-You are a hero of the Korean Peninsula!!!

People in the square were cheering towards Cheonma.

[Welcome to Yeouido Village.]

Cheonma.

[You have become Korea’s hero again. Are you satisfied with this?]

“…Somehow, it seems like it was forced. At least I’m glad I didn’t hear anyone calling me a traitor.”

The cause has been restored.

“What about my family?”

[Rest assured. I’m currently flying to Europe on a plane.]

“…….”

[Would you like to pass this on to your family?]

“No, it’s okay.”

The Heavenly Demon looked down at the people in the square and smiled slightly.

“It’s a gift that washes my identity and nationality perfectly.”

The Heavenly Demon raised both hands.

“Abstention.”
