‘The best gift for a married man is for his wife to go home and have some time for herself.’
When I first heard that, it was absurd. Because that was the answer I got when I asked a married man Berserker about how to seduce Cheon Myeong-guk.
I asked if it was real.
Berserker then replied with a serious expression.
‘Do what I say. You can hit me if I’m wrong.’
… I was unlucky in my attitude, so I thought I’d give it a shot regardless of the outcome.
However, the result was beyond imagination.
The stubborn Chun Myeong-guk had a brief thought and made a quick decision.
It’s completely different from the way he usually pays attention.
[It is an all-around keyword that can persuade a married man.]
Berserker, I can’t underestimate you. Still, I’ve done it, so I’ll give it a shot.
Anyway, he succeeded in convincing Cheon Myeong-guk.
The next day, I immediately decided to explore the gift of Cheon Myung-guk.
“Please be quick, please.”
“Don’t worry.”
Anyone who sees it will know that I am eating it. Did I not give you that much faith? Just drill a small hole next to your heart. When you use a healing agent, it leaves only tiny scars with barely visible scars.
At that moment, an awkward voice was heard from the other side.
“… But is it right for me to do this?”
The main character of the voice was the president. He had a healing potion in his hand.
“The fewer people who know the secret, the better.”
“That’s right, but I’ve never done anything like this before, so it’s awkward.”
“You can do well.”
“I will do my best, Chief Chun. Don’t be too scared.”
“… Yes, yes.”
Cheon Myeong-guk was already insane.
No, what’s so scary about putting a single knuckle near the heart?
I’d be stunned if I told you I had to beat my heart when copying gifts.
“You just spray it when I pull out my finger.”
“I see. But I have a question, can I ask?”
“You tell me.”
“It’s a hole in the side of the heart, can’t it be anesthetized?”
“… ah!”
“… … .”
There was silence for a moment.
The president had a curious expression on his face, and Chun Myeong-guk realized something he did not know.
me?
Of course I didn’t know. It would be right to say that I didn’t think about it because it wasn’t a hole in my body.
And with only this much pain?
If you are an Awakened person, it is normal to have a few holes in your body.
Even Cheon Myeong-guk will accept that.
“It takes a long time to prepare, so let’s go.”
“Come on, wait! Still anesthetized… Ugh!”
I put my finger in Cheon Myeong-guk’s chest without prolonging the time.
The moist and thick texture transmitted through the fingertips is proof of healthy blood. Although he complains of stress every day, his health is fine.
I smiled and waited until my fingers were wet enough before pulling them out.
“Chief Chen! Don’t worry! You are using it properly!”
As I watched the president rush to use the remedies, I brought blood to my mouth.
It was revealed here that Cheon Myeong-guk had been faithful throughout his life.
There were quite a few potential gifts.
‘Jeongjin’, which improves performance in one field, ‘Prediction’, which combines short-term information and sees the situation immediately after, and ‘Fighting’, which can sustain combat power with abundant force, stood out.
It is a gift that is not easy to open all of them. All three are the ones that see the light in combat situations.
It seemed that none of them were suitable for Chun Myung-guk, who is not active in the field now.
Then there was a gift that caught my eye at the end.
“simulation.”
It is a higher-order gift than predicted, but it is a gift that is difficult to manifest unless you understand the abundant amount of study, practical experience, and practical elements. It’s close to foresight, but since it’s actually made based on elements, the hit rate will be higher.
A unique gift in terms of grade?
Instead, it is not a combat gift, and it is known that recoil is not easy because it deals with vast amounts of information.
Chun Myung-guk, who had frowned at the pain he felt in his chest, became surprised when he heard what I said.
“What you just said… … .”
“There were several potential gifts.”

My eyes widen wide when I talk about my work, predictions, and fighting, and when simulation is mentioned at the end.
I guess I didn’t know that I had so many gifts.
Cheon Myeong-guk’s choice was also a simulation.
“… It’s a simulation, so I think it’s a gift that’s right for me right now.”
The president sitting next to him congratulated him.
“You found the gift you need, congratulations.”
“thank you!”
“Then what kind of effort should our chief Cheon make to open the gift?”
“You just have to work harder.”
“Yes?”
“yes?”
They both looked puzzled at the same time.
Anyone who sees it will know that I said something wrong.
But isn’t this normal?
“Gifts are stimulated when they engage with similar situations. So we just need to be given a task that fits the situation so that the simulation wakes up.”
To be honest, it was just a story to roll.
even stronger than it is now.
It wasn’t the two of them who didn’t know the meaning of these words.
Naturally, the expressions were sharply contrasted.
“Come on, wait… … .”
Why is Cheon Myeong-guk looking at me with a betrayed expression?
Oh right.

My mother-in-law decided to go home.
Then I’ll be alone, so I won’t be lonely.
If you work together, you’ll be less lonely.
Getting rid of loneliness is a mountain of work and hellish training.
I think Berserker said to a married man about his alone time, but I’m not a married man, so I don’t know.
The president received my words coldly.
“I see! I am willing to become a vicious boss for Chief Chun.”
“Please.”
Having demonstrated my skills to pass it on to the president, I chose to retreat.
I’ll take care of the rest.
“Then I will.”
“This devil! Villain! head breaker! Humans like Berserkers!”
… over the line? Did I act that badly?
I left the screaming Cheon Myeong-guk and went outside.
But I had this thought.
Simulation this gift.
Somehow, it seems to match the big picture of the great compromise that Cheon Myeong-guk drove me out of.
Didn’t he awaken the gift late in his last life and use it on me?
hey, maybe
I just felt awkward.
* * *
A few days later, in front of me were two kinds of documents about Ryu Gwang-cheol.
It was information about Ryu Kwang-cheol from the United States and given by the government. I contrasted the two.
“It’s pretty much the same overall.”
Ryu Gwang-chul, 62 years old this year, is a man who has been on the elite course since the days of the North Korean regime.
They are filled with a sense of choice to the core and call themselves the leader of the people.
It turns out that he believes he founded his own kingdom to find out in the United States, and never wants a relationship that leans toward any country.
The nickname was given as a tamer, but the gift was judged to be a little weaker than that, and to enter Ryu’s realm, he had to pass through the monster’s veil, so the attack was virtually impossible.
However, the gift is not universal, and it is written that considerable restrictions are expected in manipulating monsters.
If my skills had improved, the utility of the gift would have also increased.
It was the story of the informants that it was impossible to grasp further information because they did not engage in outside activities.
After that, they were listed in the various acts of Ryu Gwang-cheol.
Forcibly abducting the surviving residents, forced labor, forced experiments, and even throwing the rebellious residents as food for monsters.
After reading it, my impressions were simple.
“He’s cheap even if you kill him.”
No, this is a villain among villains, right?
For a moment I repented.
I thought the hematoma was the worst, but this guy was also the worst in another sense.
I thought that if I killed him blindly, Ryu Gwang-ho would be vindictive.
But if what’s written in the document is true, then there’s no problem even if you kill it right in front of your eyes.
But why didn’t he recognize Ryu Gwang-cheol’s existence in his last life?
As he went north and crossed the Yalu River, the territory must have overlapped with Ryu Gwang-cheol.
That said, if you leave it alone, trouble will happen.
The changes I’ve made in this life have been so great that there’s no guarantee that they’ll go on.
Besides, the gift that Ryu Kwang-cheol had seemed to be different from what I had envisioned.
“Communication with demons is nothing special.”
Did you say that you want to use monsters as you please, or that you want to communicate with them?
Even if they are alive, if they don’t obey their will, it’s best to die and leave behind their bones, skins, and hearts.
The best thing is to make them obey through mastery of brainwashing, but the hostility towards humans that is planted in the monster’s consciousness made it difficult.
When did that pseudo-teacher settle down? It would be nice to find it now and get rid of all the know-how, but it would be difficult to find it because it wouldn’t have settled down.
I’ll try to free some people soon.
I wanted to use the loneliness I stole from Namgoong-gi, so I’ve been diligently feeding her with the force these days.
As I was thinking about it, I took out a brown pill from my pocket. After returning, I injected the force from time to time, and I was growing while eating deliciously each time.
Even now, the force is pouring in, so it’s good.
“I should try it.”
Otherwise, he doesn’t deserve to exist.
“Let’s get some food.”
It wriggles inside, as if he understood what I was saying.
It meant to put out more force.
I don’t know what kind of guts this guy is.
“Yeah, eat as much as you want.”
Is this an investment?
Is this what a low-point investment is all about?
I might be a hit in the future, so don’t be fooled.

Meanwhile, something unexpected happened.
Jeong Da-hyun left the National Defense Agency and moved to the National Front Defense Agency.
I thought I would continue to be in charge of the villain task force.
He showed affection when he was in the National Guard, and he was very wary of getting involved with his uncle Jung Joo-ho.
It was all my mistake.
“I didn’t know I was going to change my affiliation.”
“I think the National Guard is more specialized in dealing with villains than monsters. I think it’s better to act quickly than to do damage to those around you.”
“That’s right.”
However, it was unusual in that it was the National Front Defense Agency, not a department specializing in dealing with monsters like the Daemamul Defense Front Bureau.
Of course, this is a better choice because the range of movements is wide as it controls the three kingdoms.
But it’s a problem because words can come out from Dahyun Jung’s point of view.
“Did you move because of Commissioner Jung?”
“yes that’s right.”
“Don’t you usually like to move like this?”
“How are you?”
huh? It wasn’t the response of Dahyun Jung I knew. Normally, I would show a sarcasm because I wanted to get caught.
Looking at him with a puzzled expression, Dahyun Jung smiled.
“I used to pay attention too, but when I try to focus on training, I think it’s a luxury to pay attention to that part. So I decided to give up thinking deeply.”
“okay?”
“yes. An effective method appeared right in front of me, but I couldn’t accept it because of my pride, face, and the opinions of the people around me. Then I had this thought. Does this help me? After thinking about it for three days, the conclusion I came to was ‘no’. So I decided to change my mind. Be shameless. After I get what other people see, I think about what I want, like this.”
“Good idea.”
It was a small change of thinking, but the wider the range of thinking, the more possibilities were opened in more directions.
Jung Da-hyun’s words continued.
“And the National Frontline Defense Agency can catch villains while hunting monsters. The Commissioner can entrust me with more roles.”
“That’s right.”
Jung Joo-ho That nobleman only loses his head, but he trusts and entrusts many things to his subordinates.
If talented people like Dahyun Jeong come voluntarily, of course they will welcome it.
However, as one of the team leaders moved the department, the National Security Agency caused considerable bleeding.
I rarely go to the National Guard these days, and Oh Jong-su, who was in charge of the phone business, was talking about moving to the office where Choi Jun-ho’s team was soon.
“There will be information about the north advance soon.”
“yes.”
“There are many monsters in the plains in the north. There will be a lot of hunting opportunities.”
Currently, the territory of the Republic of Korea is under control of monsters except for mountainous areas.
However, North Korea has been neglected for decades, and it is safe to say that the entire territory is a den of demons.
Jeong Da-hyun’s eyes twinkled at the fearful words.
“looking forward to it.”
“It’s good to look forward to it.”
If you don’t pay attention, the hunt will start right away.
I was looking forward to how much Jung Da-hyun will grow against monsters.
* * *
The reason why the government chose Kaesong as a base for its northward advance is simple.
This is because it is located just east of the Yeonbaek Plain, and with the development of transportation, the party responsible for the north advance can make a flexible decision.
Although the terrain was not suitable for defense, it was the most useful northernmost base and fortress among the territories currently occupied by the Republic of Korea as it took a long time to build a defense system.
The first goal of the North Korean policy is to obtain the Yeonbaek Plain, and furthermore, the Jaeryong Plain and the Pyongyang Plain are strategic goals.
It was decided that if they could stabilize this so-called three major plains in North Korea, they could aim for an increase in food production and gather people scattered throughout North Korea.
However, in the case of Pyongyang, it would not be an exaggeration to say that it is the gathering place of the current monsters.
“There are a lot of monsters, so there is a high probability that it will be Ryu Gwang-cheol’s base.”
The government is speculating that Ryu Gwang-chol built his estate here in Pyongyang.
You gulped down the dirtiest ground.
The government is declaring an all-out war to occupy these three plains and is in contact with several large corporations and large guilds.
Large corporations that had once been swept by the league wave prepared a large-scale investment to secure a new investment destination, and large guilds also showed a positive response to secure an advantage.
It was time to gradually build up the power in the north.
An unexpected guest visited Gaeseong and headed to Seoul.
They called themselves ‘the later Foreign Minister of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea’.
The response from the Blue House was intense.
“This is unexpected.”
“It seems to have predicted the northward movement and moved first.”
“Did you come to look at us?”
“Yes. There is a high probability that they will induce misunderstandings and intimidate them through pretentiousness.”
“Anyway, it’s just a small force. In the past, that power would have been terrible, but not now.”
And then the president looks at my face. what did you ask
“Because I have sure insurance.”
“That is correct.”
Now I’m taking insurance. Cheon Myeong-guk, who sympathizes with you, seems to be very mean these days.
“First, listen to what the North Korean side has to say.”
“Yes.”
It was not long before the North Korean party arrived at the Blue House. Without any hesitation, he enters and maintains an imposing posture.
At the forefront was a skinny man with the impression of a skeleton covered in leather. His eyes were sharp and his momentum was well-groomed.
Is there a melody that survived the monster den?
The president stepped forward and reached out to the man.
“I am the President of the Republic of Korea Han-cheol Jeon.”
“I am Ri Yu-cheol, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea.”
He’s a foreign minister, but he’s quite talented.
If you look at the evaluation here, it can be evaluated as level 7.
The atmosphere of the first conversation was friendly.
Ri Yu-cheol suggested that we improve our relationship by giving and receiving what we wanted, and the president responded accordingly.
What North Korea could offer was the heart of a monster and its by-products. Instead, they wanted food and Awakened’s equipment.
And he asked the president to stop the preparations for the northward advance.
The President neither affirmed nor denied this.
“We will acquire territories that the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea did not occupy.”
“That territory is also our territory that requested the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea.”
“Are you going to force yourself to claim something you can’t get right now?”
“Should it be said that they are coveting our territory now?”
“… … .”
The friendly atmosphere turned ugly.
It was a place where there was a gap that could not be narrowed from the beginning.
The president must have tried to gauge the thoughts of Ryu Kwang-chul, who calls himself the heir of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, and Ri Yu-cheol was trying to figure out how far we want it.
The results revealed only differences of opinion.
Neither the President nor Lee Yoo-chul showed any signs of backing down.
“I don’t think the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea has the power to stop us.”
“have.”
As I thought, the words started to become shorter.
Ri Yu-cheol declared to the president with a determined expression.
“South Koreans should know that if they set foot on the territory of our republic without fear, they could trample not only Gaeseong, but even Seoul, by a million demons.”
The choice of words for the subject of begging for food and weapons is great.
I heard the bullshit and said something.
“Don’t you think that a lightning bolt will fall on your head and it will disintegrate into pieces?”
