EP 35- International Society (4)
[Ah, have you been working in the Knights Association until now?]
“Yes. Originally I was going to stop by for a while, but somehow I got caught and I’m adding my hand. The air is fresh and the rice is delicious, so there is no stress. Huh huh.”
[Then you must have touched Horus, too. I wondered why the United States suddenly didn’t do something. Aren’t they friends who risk their lives for their rice bowls?]
“Actually, I was at the level that I was lightly stabbed, but it didn’t feel like it was revealed too easily. But there is a reason.”
The United States did not take unilateral losses to get rid of its ugly past. Maybe it’s normal, though.
The reality of the Horus system was more bleak than expected. It was not over technology that automatically informs when and where the gate opens.
What is the Horus System? It was like a slightly purging weather forecast.
The magic that floats like a cloud on the satellite image gathers here and there, and then again and again, but the magic does not travel with the wind, so it just floats randomly without any regularity. (Or we haven’t found regularity yet)
Then, when too much magical power is accumulated, a gate is created, but it is not unconditionally. Sometimes it occurs and sometimes it doesn’t, but the difference between them has not been studied yet.
There were also different ways of gathering magic power. It clumps like a whirlpool, a fog, or even a ball.
If we go one step further, magic is divided into S waves and N waves, and there is another magic that causes an abnormal climate when combined with an element, there is a magic that just came out of the gate, and there is a magic that has become cloudy from eating some water from the earth… … .
I can’t understand it, even though I’ve been the Minister of Portrait Management.
However, there is only one reason why the United States predicted the occurrence of global gates with the Horus system.
“Who would have thought that tens of thousands of PhD-level personnel were attached to those crude satellite images?”
The reason the US was able to predict the occurrence of gates with the Horus system was because it covered the lack of technology by replacing people with it.
Just as cities were built around a nuclear test lab in the old days of the Cold War, some small towns were converted into research labs.
Even looking at the published paper this time, he had completed a considerable level of research by pioneering a new field of magical mechanics or something.
After all, because there are so many people involved, the researcher is stolen by China. Now I know.
So, it didn’t matter now.
“In one way or another, it seems that the situation in which we have to open our hands to the United States remains the same. What do you do if you throw in a purging satellite image? I don’t have anyone to analyze… … .”
[It just got worse. Now I have to give it to you.]
right.
As Yang Pan-seok said, it is no longer possible to rely solely on the United States for gate prediction. Now that all the technology has been revealed, the gates of your country should predict what you’re going to say.
Rather, it has now become a situation in which the US has to prick the US, saying, ‘Please take a look at our country-‘.
Anyway, it was the world that didn’t know one inch ahead.
“It doesn’t matter if you give money to the US, and unless you just stop the work that you did in Europe, you will lose money. It is unfortunate.”
[You say that only Korea benefited.]
“Then you don’t look so mean.”
[Because you have a very strange personality… … .]
* * *
Just because the US vomited the Horus system didn’t solve everything. However, the minimum conditions for not being ‘Europe’ were prepared.
We now had to wash away the damage from the Jecheon incident and prepare for future threats.
First, it was revealed that the area south of the Chungcheong Defense Line was not a safe zone for the gate, so we had to come up with a new strategy, restore the shaky economy, and calm the anxious citizens.
It wasn’t that difficult.
“Prime Minister Yoo Jae-kyung, thank you for your hard work. This is the amendment to the energy battery tariff that you asked for last time. It seems that the German Christian Democratic Party is going to take it and put it in the European Parliament.”
[Ahh! Fortunately, the! The President was also watching closely. If you post the agenda first, I think we will be able to properly cooperate with the Knights Association. By the way, Minister Han Seung-moon, do you have any connections on the Council of Ministers? … .]
“Why not?”
It was not that Korean politicians did not have trust and trust in each other, or that they did not have the ability.
Above all, President Won Ok-bun was a person who was willing to join hands with the world’s most assholes.
It means that if I take care of my back and take good care of it, there is no problem.
Of course, when I actively cooperated with Won Ok-bun’s government, who was stuck in the knights’ society, the Kuomintang broke out that I was a traitor, but what can I do?
In the first place, the Kuomintang was a place where people who did not want to see Won Ok-bun become president were gathered together, and since Shin Soo-gwang flew, the party has been holding a mango.
Two of my close brothers still remained there, but Yang Il-ho has already retired and Lee Ho-jung is the one who takes care of the rice bowls, so it’ll be fine.
Of course, I, who is neither a politician nor a public official, felt a sense of self-doubt from time to time when I hit the beats like this, but I didn’t have any problems at all.
[of course. Let’s talk about the past for a moment. As I’ve said before in acknowledging defeat in the presidential election, I wanted America to be a country that is tolerant, hopeful, tolerant, and capable of loving ourselves. And that attitude will not change even toward the citizens of the world. Now there is no America for America. There is just everyone for everyone. Political leaders in Europe and Asia also wish for an era of forgiveness and hope… … .]
Just as I compromised with the US because I didn’t want to mess with it, the US also threw dog food at me and tried to shake off the sediment.
The decision to save the country in which the United States opened the Horus system for the whole world was the product of the beautiful friendship between me, Lumière, and the President of the United States.
Of course, China’s unscrupulous hacking attempts also faded into the shadows of history.
Except for a few close aides to the former president of the United States, it could be said that everyone had a happy ending.
Maybe this is the politics of win-win and compromise? Today, the international community was at peace.
I couldn’t hide my excitement and smiled.
“Chaewon-ah. If the left hand doesn’t know what the right hand is doing, it’s third-rate, if it does, it’s second-rate, and it’s first-class to shed it on the stock market… … .”
“What should I do with the leftovers from Odengoro?”
“Put it away. Why are you still holding it?”
We were enjoying a long-awaited break in Paris, France. Knights Without Borders provided houses and food for their guests.
Of course, it wasn’t like I was playing around with Yeo Do-yeon on vacation. The lifestyle itself has already refused to rest.
As an outsider, I was working on a pastime that Lumière was grumpy about, and that was a fun leisure time in its own way.
In Korea, whenever I tried to do anything, I heard gossip from all directions, but in Europe, I didn’t care about that and I could just scream.
Yesterday, the leader of the Social Democratic Party of Denmark, who was bullying with the Hunter’s private organization, was harassed. Today, let’s blow the bribe deputy governor of the European Central Bank. Or we could just abandon the slaughter altogether… … !
I was living with this kind of feeling, but one day, a welcome guest came to visit me.
“Seon-ah! And even Jinwoon? No, how did you get to such a distant place?”
“Jiyoon blew me away. What. How you doing?”
“It’s been a while, Senator.”
Hong Seon-ah and Seol Jin-woon came to France.
Hong Seon-ah came to attend a conference in France as the Korean representative of the World Superhuman Organization, and Seol Jin-woon stopped by France for a while while going on an expedition to Egypt as the Korean branch of the Knights Association.
In other words, schedules overlapped by chance while Korea’s top hunters were busy, and at that time, even me, who was in France, came to see me.
“Hey, nice to meet you. Nice to meet you. Don’t stay like this, let’s go inside.”
Hong Seon-ah had a slight staggering feeling that the aftermath of the white burning in Australia was still there, and Seol Jin-woon had a boyish shirt completely gone. you have become handsome
At that time, Yeo Do-yeon, who had slept all day on her long-awaited vacation, scratched her frizzy hair and walked out.
“uh. What are you guys doing here?”
It was ugly in my opinion, but it seems that the two hunters couldn’t be so happy.
“Doyeon’s older sister!”
“Sister, how are you?”
The two hunters rushed to Yeo Do-yeon, and I realized that they didn’t have a business for me, but came to see Yeo Do-yeon.
The three of them had a special relationship with each other, and they didn’t have any particularly serious business, so they were able to spend an enjoyable and leisurely evening.
There, while Lumière was busy, he left for work leaving only a few expensive bottles of wine as a gift.
“Hey there, Senator Han Seung-moon.”
It would have been perfect if Seol Jin-woon hadn’t said that he wanted to go into politics.
“that… … I have a few things to discuss.”
“Oh! We must listen to whatever our Lunar New Year Hunters say. Don’t be shy and feel free to speak. Anything is fine as long as it’s not illegal. haha!”
“that is… … In fact, the nomination proposal is-”
“Stop it.”
“Yes?”
“If you can’t do it, don’t do it!”
I was tempted to turn the table over. The taste of the rice had dropped and she opened her eyes brightly and was excited, so Do-yeon Yeo, who was as spunky as me, chased Seol Jin-woon.
“What kind of bastard did you flirt with?”
“yes?”
Yeo Do-yeon and I grabbed Seol Jin-woon and confided.
“If you don’t do it, don’t do it!”
“hey. tell me straight Who cheated?”
“don’t do it! just! don’t do it!”
“If it blows now, it will end well. Don’t waste your time, let’s talk quickly.”
When Yeo Do-yeon put her arm around Seol Jin-woon’s shoulder, the boy’s face turned hazy.
“He, he, Yang Jeong-seok came to visit… … .”
“Hey, f**k it.”
Yang Pan-seok’s son extended his evil magic to Seol Jin-woon. It wasn’t a day or two for a political aspirant to hold onto a celebrity, but if it went up to the nomination story, it meant that Yang Jeong-seok was already connected to a key member of the watchdog who had the right to vote. The possibility of an intracerebral delusion cannot be ruled out, though.
I was playing politics like that, but Yeo Do-yeon paid attention to something different from me.
“But why did you want to go into politics?”
“… … .”
“There must have been a reason why I fell for the tidbit.”
“… … just. I don’t think anything will change if I work as a hunter.”
“Do you really need to change what? no. What would you like to change?”
“… … You know your sister too. I thought it would be okay if all the monsters were caught, but companies told me not to close all the gates and leave them alone, and then when a person dies, it’s not a monster damage, but an industrial accident. Then in Jecheon, people die like that, and the hunters on the corporate side only protect their territory and then come back later to take pictures… … .”
“Hunter became a worker from a hero?”
“… … It’s similar.”
“hey. Jinwoon. Just listen… … .”
While Yeo Do-yeon gave her life counseling on the spot, I slowly noticed her and approached Hong Seon-ah.
Hong Seon-ah was smiling while muttering snacks in the midst of this, in case someone was not Hong Seon-ah.
“hey. Seon-ah.”
“why? Senator?”
“Did you bring me here to solve this?”
“Isn’t it? Are you here for a meeting?”
“A person who eats all the regular meetings and goes on an expedition?”
“Damn it.”
“I will respect whether it is the spirit of Chun-shik Kim or the soul of Chun-shik Kim, but let’s attend the meeting properly.”
“Look.”
“Ah, really.”
A person who was skeptical from the beginning died and came back to life in Australia and became a fox. I’m glad that it seems brighter than before, but there is a part where I can’t communicate at all, so it’s a pain in the ass.
Still, to what extent a college student who was rolling around in Apgujeong established himself as a hunter, and now he has become adept at political sensibility. It was a little delightful.
I glanced at Hong Seon-ah.
“So, Jungseok Yang probably wasn’t the only one who went to see Hunter Seol Jinwoon.”
“Are you saying that I should be the chairman of the founding preparatory committee?”
“what? Are you planning to build a new shrine?”
“They said that we should gather the hunters and the fandom and form a three-party party. There are quite a few people within the National Defense Party who are very supportive.”
“but. Since Won Ok-bun came to power, the Yangpan-seok system broke out inside the National Defense Party. But that doesn’t mean Yang Jeong-seok has leadership… … ?”
“Older lawmakers are pushing Yang Jeong-seok as a scarecrow. Isn’t Yang Jeong-seok attracting hunters to secure a stake in his own way? By the way, the assortment is good, right?”
“Because the concept of the Yang Pan-seok government was a paranormal revolution. It is also a good picture in itself to give preference to hunters. Right after the Jecheon incident, the situation is unstable… … .”
But why is Hong Seon-ah pushed as the founding chairman?
I couldn’t open my mouth because I was also slightly stabbed, but Hong Seon-ah noticed it and smiled.
“It seemed like he wanted Han Seung-moon to expose that he had turned the Hunter Association into his own private organization.”
“oh.”
“I knew I hated you so much. Well, it’s natural to say that there’s nothing wrong with talking about a private organization… … .”
Hong Seon-ah shrugged.
“What can I do? You should think of it as karma.”
“Do you really need to take someone who is resting comfortably in Korea?”
“Are you going to drag us all into politics and get out on your own?”
“It’s a bit rude.”
“I learned everything. What. The flight to Korea is tomorrow evening.”
The gate opened on the first day of my tenure episode 233
