Chapter 108 – How To Win
“Ugh, I feel like committing an act of terrorism.”
“…At the very least, please be aware that you are a hero candidate.”
At Yoo Eunchae’s muttering, Abel responded with a disgusted expression.
“But think about it, imagine. The villains are diligently preparing sothing, and the hero commits an act of terror with a bomb over it.”
“…”
“Isn’t it thrilling?”
This woman was indeed a lunatic.
Abel was seriously considering whether to kill her right now to avoid future troubles.
In front of Han Seojin, she was extrely well-behaved.
But the occasional madness was unlike that of any other student.
“Anyway, be careful. Your actions are starting to get noticed outside.”
“Ah, I hate it. The U.S. or China thoroughly protects their students, so why doesn’t Korea protect us?”
“Well, if you want to live in the wild like them, with outhouses for bathrooms, old beds, and only cold water in the showers…”
“Korea daisuki!”
“Why the sudden Japanese? Anyway, I need to prepare for class, so I’ll be going now.”
“Got it.”
After sending Abel away, Yoo Eunchae thought.
‘I want to commit an act of terrorism.’
She wanted to cause a big explosion.
She wanted to experint with her newly acquired traits.
With such thoughts, she turned on her phone and saw a news article at the top of the video site.
[The Collapsed Iron-Blood Sword Clan, Is It Okay As It Is?]
It was a video.
‘Oh my.’
Was the Iron-Blood Sword Clan collapsing now?
Yoo Eunchae had a bewildered expression.
The Five Great Clans.
Among them, the most outstanding was the Iron-Blood Sword Clan.
They had sold themselves out.
But they were still useful.
For their own benefit, they killed other demonic followers and expanded their territory.
So she left them alone.
‘Why suddenly annihilate the clan and cause trouble?!’
Yoo Eunchae quickly clicked on the video.
What kind of action led to this future? What butterfly effect caused this?
As she clicked on the video, a thought crossed her mind.
A very familiar face appeared.
With white hair fluttering, a man with blue eyes was smiling confidently.
“What?”
The culprit who brought down the Iron-Blood Sword Clan.
It was none other than her professor, Han Seojin.
Realizing this, Yoo Eunchae made a foolish expression.
The students were gathered.
I wanted to know their current level.
‘It’s absolutely not because I want to experint with a new trait.’
Eternal God.
Its divine na was simple.
Beco eternal.
‘Actually, this just enhances the unique traits.’
It was a faith related to ti.
Aside from that, I noticed a few changes while experinting yesterday.
The most significant thing.
‘The effect of the Glacial Heavenly Moon has increased.’
The magic of ice imbued with destruction.
It had beco more intense.
Even I was quite surprised by this. Roughly.
‘The output has increased by about five tis.’
An absurd output.
However, a problem arose.
‘It has beco difficult to use Divine Thunderbolt.’
The ice of destruction from the Glacial Heavenly Moon.
And the harmonious fla from Brilliant Blazing Fire.
Combining these two to create an extre reaction resulted in the Divine Thunderbolt.
But with one side becoming too strong, it has beco difficult to use.
‘In this case, I might need to look into a new trait.’
A trait related to fire.
That had beco necessary.
I folded my arms and leaned against the wall. What should I do?
‘The Fla of Harmony, Brilliant Blazing Fire, is difficult to enhance.’
While being a fla, it did not possess destructive power.
Rather, it healed when applied and mixed well with other forces.
It was created with such an image in mind.
The World Tree of Flas.
It was a fla inspired by seeing it.
So, instead of increasing its destructive power as a fla, I had to use another fla.
‘Everything needs to be balanced. Rather than just increasing destructive power, I need to enhance healing and harmony as well.’
It was quite botherso.
Of course, that’s why it allowsed to cast the spell Divine Thunderbolt.
Click, clack.
I heard the sound of footsteps. There shouldn’t be any suit-wearing people here.
Curious, I turned my head and saw a man in a suit looking at .
“Hello, Han Seojin.”
“Yes. Are you from the association?”
“Yes.”
The Association.
While the clans pursued their interests, the association was closer to the governnt.
Clans were like large corporations.
Thus, the Association didn’t have much money, but it wielded strong power, attracting those who craved authority.
‘Even so, the clans can wield trendous power.’
The man in the suit approached and said,
“You need to co with us.”
“What?”
Co to think of it.
An enormous change happened to .
I received the divine na of the Eternal God.
Separate from that,
A bad change occurred.
“Hello.”
He had a stern appearance.
A man in a black suit, adjusting his glasses, was looking at .
“Since we’re not here for anything good, let’s get this over with.”
“Even for the sake of the principal, we must do it, but this matter won’t be easy.”
The man said this and began to investigate .
“Do you know what the Five Great Clans an in Korea?”
“I’m not sure.”
“…Though you had privileges from the Iron-Blood Sword Clan, you should know a bit.”
“Well. I don’t have many good mories.”
“…”
The man closed his mouth for a mont and looked at .
“Han Seojin, you will have to co with us.”
“Why ?”
“Because you brought down the Iron-Blood Sword Clan.”
“…”
The present world had turned into an era of the survival of the fittest.
Moral standards have collapsed once.
An incident that occurred as all dinsions integrated.
Monsters invaded this dinsion, and those dwelling in demonic power bared their fangs.
Korea had achieved significant changes with the advancent of science, but there was much darkness behind it.
An era of money and power.
It was an era where those without money were guilty, and those without power were guilty. Those without money or power were easily eliminated.
That was the hallmark of the present age.
Moreover, the Iron-Blood Sword Clan, which until recently held Seoul in its grasp.
Such a place collapsed overnight.
Accompanied by nurous casualties and injuries.
‘Even so, there are not many casualties.’
It was because there were not many people I directly killed.
The problem was that the power of those I directly killed was quite excessive.
In any case, in absolute numbers, it was not that many.
Still, even in this era, there was a sense of right.
Korea.
The five great families that ruled it.
I single-handedly brought down the heart of that place.
That was the truth, but people did not believe it.
“The professor is soone special to the principal. There are many things she implicitly allows.”
“That’s right~.”
“But this ti, you’ve crossed the line quite a bit.”
The person who ca to interrogate looked at .
“The Iron-Blood Sword Clan dominates the center of Korea, Seoul.”
“I have destroyed the forces of evil.”
“…That’s not it. Although they harbor darkness, isn’t it sothing everyone has to so extent? The Iron-Blood Sword Clan doesn’t necessarily have to exist, but they must be there to replace others. If they fall, everyone will join the power struggle.”
“Indeed.”
Even the Wi clan participated in this power struggle. They declared that they would beco one of the Five Great Families this ti, and that old man would do well.
“Therefore, I ask for your cooperation. This incident is on a scale that cannot be done alone. The only entities capable of orchestrating sothing of this magnitude are transcendents, as you know.”
“Is there such a duty?”
“Yes, all transcendents have duties. Thanks to them, we can live peacefully like this. However, this incident is not ordinary. It’s an event that only a transcendent-level entity could cause.”
The man in front of adjusted his glasses and looked at .
“Who is it?”
“Are you saying another transcendent helped ?”
“No, not a transcendent, but we suspect another high-ranking entity… or those tainted by evil.”
“That’s sad.”
Even though I did it, no one believes that I did.
‘Well, actually, that’s a good thing.’
Supre Realm.
I reached the end, but the head of the family was weak.
He was just an ordinary guy who sohow got close to being a transcendent.
Perhaps the threshold of other top-level figures was more dangerous.
Maybe the person investigating now was more wary of that.
‘I did so preparation.’
I spoke a few words to the principal.
No matter how powerful I was to bring down the Iron-Blooded Sword Family, doing it alone?
‘It’s obvious that obstacles would co from everywhere.’
There were people who mistakenly thought I caused incidents without any backup.
‘If I really did that, even the Emperor wouldn’t have given imnse resources.’
My political power was greater than expected.
Moreover, my martial prowess surpassed that.
My talent was even greater than that.
That’s why I could have all the resources of the empire.
“Anyway, let’s go now. Before the reporters co.”
I looked outside.
It seed like so reporters were already there.
“Well, let’s go then.”
When we stepped outside, the reporters were already there.
“Mr. Han Seojin, you brought down the Iron-Blood Sword Clan this ti. Do you have anything to say?”
“No interviews, please. Let’s go quickly.”
Ignoring the suit-clad man’s words, I hung my head down.
I recalled a sad mory.
[If I win this ti, I have sothing to say.]
[Hmm?]
[I’ll bring a ring.]
[…What?]
The mory of getting hit by a truck when I was about to propose to my first love.
[What’s that flower?]
[I picked it up on the way. They say it’s good for recovery, so brew it and drink it.]
[Han Seojin. Are you giving flowers to another woman right in front of ?]
[Hmm?]
[…You really have no clue.]
The mory of causing a misunderstanding because of the possessiveness of the Duke of Extermination.
[Why, why are you being so nice to ?]
[Don’t you know the reason? Really?]
[Could it be that you, you… but I cannot betray the Heavenly Demon…]
[Don’t say that. Right now, that’s not what’s important.]
[…Han Seojin.]
The incident when I needed a subordinate and made the Flower Dragon my subordinate, causing a misunderstanding with the Heavenly Demon.
‘There was such a story.’
Cry to prove your innocence.
A scene from the novel I read during the first round.
It had been so long that I couldn’t rember well, but I recalled it was about proving innocence by crying.
Well, anyway.
How to win in politics?
It’s simple.
Attract attention.
“I, sniff… could not forgive the actions of the Iron-Blood Sword Clan.”
Victory through tears.
If an article ca out today, wouldn’t it be like this?
The reason the eldest son of the Iron-Blood Sword Clan had no choice but to bring it down.
The Iron-Blood Sword Clan was actually conducting human experints.
Just like that.
‘So what.’
That was it.
