I said looking at the blue dragon. It would be disgusting if it was several hundred meters tall, but it’s about one finger long, so it has a cute taste.
Come to think of it, I remember catching a few snakes like that and often roasting them when I was being chased by blood clots.
“Just go.”
[Why are you like this too?]
“It’s not good.”
[It’s strange, everyone was anxious because they couldn’t have them by their side.]
The blue dragon hovered around me and said.
Talking with a casual expression was not usually a strong enemy.
“Will you come back if you don’t need me?”
[I’m not going.]
The blue dragon’s voice became firm.
[You have to see if you keep your promise. And you are too dangerous. You never know when they will attack Mt. Baekdu. I’ve been curious about the human world for a long time, so I’ll keep an eye on it. Please.]
Where are you going to hang out naturally? I had no intention of going with a demon who claims to be a divine beast.
“Nope.”
[You gave me something good!]
“Why am I to a guy who calls me crazy?”
[You are crazy. I’m really crazy As a newcomer, I assure you. I’m uniquely crazy among humans I’ve ever seen!]
“… … .”
How many times do you say you’re crazy in a few short words?
Is this guy referring to the skill that makes people angry that he has mastered the Tao?
“If I tell you to go, won’t you go?”
[yes!]
“If you want to be by my side, you pay more.”
[Wow, it’s amazing that he’s really crazy like this, but he’s also very greedy.]
“Come back if you are unhappy.”
[Okay, I got it. Real human greed is the worst.]
The mumbled bastard said he’d think about what he could give him.
I’m glad I have something to rip.
And to say I’m crazy is just his one-sided claim.
Stop thinking that I’m not crazy.

It wasn’t too difficult to open the road to the south.
If Ryu Gwang-cheol was alive, the monsters he was cooperating with were blocking the path, but after Ryu’s death, the cooperative system was temporarily dissolved and he fell into chaos.
And soon after, as the demons moved, the defense system surrounding New Pyongyang was lifted.
Nevertheless, the people living in Shin-Pyongyang did not leave their homes.
Citizens who lived less than slaves did not have to leave because of the abundant food rations, and the awakened people attached to Ryu had no confidence to go outside where the demons were rampaging and survive.
It was the vanguard unit led by Jeong Joo-ho that dug into that gap.
Since I had already been contacted by a satellite phone, Joo-ho Jeong, who dug through the gap I had opened and recruited the core forces of the National Front Defense Agency and personnel from the three countries, succeeded in entering New Pyongyang.
Joo-ho Jung, who also believes in writing!

My hair is getting thinner day by day, but maybe that’s why my judgment was being sharpened.
I went out and greeted him.
“Welcome to Pyongyang, Commissioner.”
“I have come all the way to Pyongyang because of you. How far are you really trying to take me?”
“It’s good because it’s a business trip anyway. Singing to my wife saying she wants to get away.”
“Is that the same as this one?”
“Isn’t it? May I contact your mother?”
“… Let’s do something good first.”
The existence of a married man longing for freedom is very strange.
Like Berserker, who says that entering a house is scarier than dealing with me.
I’ll admit it in the end, but I pretend to be strong.
“Let’s go inside.”
“Ugh!”
Jeong Joo-ho shook his head, looking at the splendid tin palace.
In the reception room, which is the highlight of the show, I briefly told about Ryu Gwang-cheol and showed him the wealth he had gathered.
“Last time, you turned the brain of the mayor of Busan into porridge, but this time you took the head of the puppet state.”
I couldn’t find anything strange about those words. What do you mean by this? Feeling puzzled, he looked at Jung Joo-ho, but he didn’t say anything.
Then, looking at the list of confiscated possessions, I clicked my tongue.
“By the way, is this amount too big? Are you going to return everything to the real state?”
“Isn’t it?”
“You wouldn’t even know if you were carrying a small one.”
On a big day, you’re a yangban.
No, is it because you want to take care of yourself? Not by looking at your face.
Jung Joo-ho shook his head seriously.
“Even if all this is attributed to the state, it will not be used in the way you want it to be. When it comes to your own money, everything becomes someone else’s money. Strict bastards can use straws as if they were their own money. You can only be disappointed.”
Rather, it was Jung Joo-ho’s words to tell me to take care of it to some extent.
It’s a strange feeling to say something like this from a person who is like a public servant hunter.
That’s how much disappointment there is. No organization is 100% perfect. This is especially true for large organizations.
“Can a public official say that?”
“Are you comfortable talking like this?”
“It’s not like that. I know roughly. As long as I spend my money on my own terms.”
“But you’re going to let it go?”
“Anyway, there is a limit to even joking around. It can be written when the interests are aligned, but it is difficult to write when there are people who have free interests.”
“Any other thoughts?”
“I’m going to take a look at the money spent.”
“… 100% of this money will be put to good use.”
Even if you take it anyway, you have to dispose of it, convert it into cash, and go through several processes. But I don’t really have a place to use it. I thought money was all I needed, so I didn’t want to be greedy while committing an illegality.
And now I have a lot of money.
“I’m going to ask you to use this money to rebuild this road.”
“Would you like to hear that?”
“Can I make you hear it?”
Still, it’s the money I found. I thought if I could play the press in moderation and take a look at what I was using, it would be possible to prevent leaks into side roads.
Talk to the president.
It was a measure I had taken on my own.
Jung Joo-ho nodded his head.
“In order not to die, I must be honest.”
“Why are you so bitter?”
“It’s because it’s big enough money to make me greedy. Do you have any complaints?”
“Then take it.”
“Is that so?”
“Yes, I will report it instead.”
“Okay, don’t take it.”
I had no intention of taking it anyway.

My eyes met and Jung Joo-ho burst out laughing.
Just coming this far has helped me a lot.
I remember when I was working in Busan, I swept the inside and Jung Joo-ho came and finished it.
“But what about those guys who are anxious outside?”
“These are Ryu Gwang-cheol’s men. I was told that I would be punished and become a new person.”
“A new person? I must have wandered in search of a way to live and decided on you as a new host.”
Jung Joo-ho snorted.
“If they are co-workers with Ryu Gwang-cheol, there will be some who will not be able to wash away their sins.”
“They can be killed.”
“ok?”
Were my words different from what you expected?
I think Jung Joo-ho was mistaken. Those guys mean nothing to me.
“I have no regrets. I’ll leave everything to the Chief Executive.”
Jung Joo-ho’s expression became strange when he said that it doesn’t matter if he kills everyone.
Lee Ryong-hwa’s words of wanting to go south come to mind.
I don’t know the crime he committed. That will be investigated in the future and a sentence will be given in a Korean court.
If the crime is seriously bad and the death penalty is imposed, there is nothing we can do about it.
If you survive the death penalty, you can live a normal life.

After the emergence of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, the hidden existence of New Pyongyang.
They were good materials to make Korea turn upside down.
Due to the incomprehensible movements of the two plus stage monsters, Ryu Gwang-cheol’s existence had no choice but to appear. And the status of Choi Jun-ho, who blocked this, also rises.
The news of entering the Yeonbaek Plain with the Shinsung Guild at the forefront of the northern advance, and the activities of other guilds, were expected to distract attention, but as New Pyongyang entered the hands of the Republic of Korea, it became a huge tsunami that could not be stopped.
“Everywhere is a mess. It is a monumental achievement.”
“Yes.”
“I conquered the capital of the enemy country alone by breaking through more than ten eight-level monsters. I heard about the majesty of short-term film horses, but I didn’t know they were ours.”
Sometimes I feel full, like I’m about to burst because my stomach isn’t full.
Thanks to Junho Choi.
“Choi Jun-ho, Cho-in, has expressed his intention to withdraw from the North Korean situation without meddling in the situation any more.”
“Are you going to come back and release your hand after making it yourself?”
“I have been told that leaving the work to the experts will give the best results.”
“That’s why I can’t help but love it. On the one hand, it is burdensome. How disappointing we will be if we don’t live up to our expectations.”
“I will work harder.”
“I must work hard. Let’s do well.”
“Yes.”
After a brief moment of motivation, the president changed the subject.
“What is the reaction around you?”
“The United States and Japan have sent congratulations. Both have expressed their intention to invest, and in the case of Japan, they have expressed their intention to export food.”
“We haven’t secured the plains yet, but isn’t it too fast?”
“The league has caused a lot of damage, so we are focusing on securing food.”
“Once you say that you will review it positively, what about the request from the US?”
“It is to strengthen the existing Korea-US alliance and expand the scale of trade.”
“Isn’t there a profit to be made in America?”
“It seems that they are trying to expand their influence on the Korean Peninsula.”
“It was a story that we wouldn’t deal with like before.”
Korea’s presence has been upgraded to a higher level, so it’s not a bad trend.
“How about China?”
“There is a fierce reaction. But there is no further movement.”
Chun Myeong-guk reported that the current situation in the Yalu River is not serious.
It is said that after Ryu Gwang-cheol’s death, many of the monsters that were running rampant returned to the North, and the Chinese side’s Awakening Unit, which was trying to cross the Yalu River, withdrew.
“They seem to have a gut feeling that things are out of their hands.”
China can no longer use its hands. That means they can act on their own will.
“How much is Choi Jun-ho’s wealth?”
“It’s at least tens of trillions of won.”
“I will use all of that money to restore the North Korean region, even if it’s me.
It was Choi Jun-ho’s request, not anyone else.
If it was Kim Young-hwan, he would have squeezed his head to understand the context within it.
I should have linked Kim Young-hwan with a company related to him and gave him money.
Choi Jun-ho didn’t need any doubts about money.
“It is a great blessing to not have a bath.”
“Yeah, that’s a big blessing. So we have to be more vigilant about greed. Let them know that they appreciate your request.”
“Yes.”
“And there will be people who are dissatisfied with it.”
Some may think that the money Jun-ho Choi secured in North Korea is blind money. The president had no intention of ignoring their existence.
“It has to be wiped out from the beginning, so be careful. Don’t think this is our money. Even that can be disappointing, so let’s deal with it quickly. Because this is the most important time for us.”
“I will keep that in mind.”
Watching Cheon Myeong-guk go out, the president lightly tapped the table with his hand.
Although he pretended to be calm, the feat of achieving ‘unification’ made people shudder.
“I didn’t know my wish would come true like this.”
The president smiled happily even though there was a mountain of work to be done.

After entrusting Shin Pyongyang to Jung Joo-ho, I immediately returned to Kaesong. Kaesong, which serves as a base for the northern advance, was bustling with huge numbers unlike when I left.
After reporting my return, I washed up and headed to the hotel where the Holy Guild was staying. There, he met Yoon-hee.
“brother!”
“Uh, are you alive?”
“What am I going to say? How come you don’t even contact me? How worried Mom and Dad are!”
Are your parents worried? I’ve never seen one. Is it true?
“Are you really worried?”
“Of course it’s a lie.”
I was embarrassed to see him lying so blatantly. It seems like it’s a lie that I’m growing day by day.
Looking at him with absurdity, Yoon-hee smiled and said triumphantly.
“I opened the gift. Praise me!”
“What is praise? How about a gift?”
“Very good. Being able to continue exerting my full power with my own will is a dream-like setting.”
Yun-hee, who opened up her fortitude, was making rapid progress as if something she had suppressed had exploded. I thought I would reach level 5 soon.
The effort you have put in so far has been amazing. As they piled up in the right direction, they were sprinting at the opportunity of opening the gift.
Excited, Yoon-hee started talking to me about the strength of fortitude. It’s a gift I’ve seen before, and I’m well aware of its power, but hearing it in person, I thought it was amazing.
I’m greedy
I wish I had that gift too.
Shall I tell you? not. I guess I’m just going to swear.
As I was immersed in thought for a moment, Yoon-hee was looking at me with bizarre eyes.
“What are you looking at so disgustingly?”
“What?”
“If you have something to say, say it directly. If I can do it, I can listen.”
“Your gift.”
“yes.”
I’m in a good mood, so won’t you be willing to allow it?
I said without being able to overcome the greed of Chimi.
“Can’t I make a copy?”
“copy? Can I make a copy of the gift?”
“I haven’t told you in a while, but my ability is gift copying.”
“really? ah! That’s why you had several gifts!”
“uh.”
“Then you mean that my gift can also be copied?”
“Fortitude is a good gift.”
However, I am not sure if I will be able to show my full power from the beginning to the end because it is a unique case.
“I will.”
“really?”
“yes. How much has he helped you, can you not do this much?”
I don’t know how he’s copying, so I’m just screaming.
“What should I do?”
“You just have to be still. The rest I can take care of.”
If you close your eyes, you can immediately copy the gift information engraved on the blood of your heart.
“What, what? my heart?”
“It will sting and it will end.”
I said it as if to bring out words of consolation.
“Is that going to happen, you idiot! no way!”
It wasn’t okay.
Having lost my appetite, I decided to look for the next opportunity.

My return to Seoul took place quietly.
Hearing from Cheon Myeong-guk that it is disturbing as the process of restoring New Pyongyang is known.
It’s just the beginning, but if you want to rest comfortably, it would be better to move quietly.
by the way.
[Wow! Human civilization could change so brilliantly!]
The self-proclaimed new beast who chirps next to him is busy looking around the city.
He walked openly through the streets, but no one recognized him.
As if he had read my thoughts, the blue dragon approached me and said triumphantly.
[I’m only connected to you, so I don’t have to worry about other people recognizing me!]
It doesn’t look very good to me.
No matter what I say, he’s not one to listen to, and in the end, I walked away half-leaving it.
At that moment, a nimble sports car glided to a halt next to me.
The window opened, and a beautiful woman with a familiar face leaned towards me and said,
“Wonderful person there, would you like to go have a hot soybean paste stew with me?”
of course you should go
“Then I will leave.”
As I got into the seat next to me, Anna Christine, who raised her eyebrows, stepped on the accelerator.
[Come on, wait! Where! Don’t leave me!]
Blue Dragon was surprised, but what did he find out? I left him and moved to a nearby Korean restaurant with Anna Christine.
The main menu is doenjang stew made with soybean paste made by artisans.
What a delicious food composition.
Anna Christine, you’ve grown into an enemy you can’t be vigilant about.
Anna Christine, whom I haven’t seen in a long time, is more beautiful than before.
Even maintaining the status quo wouldn’t normally take effort, but women’s obsession with beauty sometimes made even the madness of blood clots feel like nothing.
“It’s been a while, Junho! How have you been?”
“It’s me every day.”
“Is it the same? In the meantime, just the incident that Junho has caused can turn over a book.”
would that be enough?
It’s hard to believe.
“It’s true.”
When I didn’t seem to believe it, Anna Christine mumbled that it was true.
[I came to you soon.]
I don’t know how the abandoned guy came to find him so quickly.
[There are few people as crazy as you, so it’s easy to find.]
Scratching the inside is world class.
I looked at the blue dragon for a moment, then fixed my gaze on Anna Christine.
It must have come for a purpose.
So let me try to extract some information without hesitation.
“Does America know?”
“yes? What is it?”
“The fact that there are imaginary creatures among demons.”
“… … !”
Anna Christine’s surprised expression was enough to answer.
“Tell me what you know.”
So that will start our conversation.
Anna Christine took a deep breath and began to divulge information about Shinsoo.
