When I got home, I told Yoon-hee that I would be away for a few days. The guy I normally thought would be like that, but this time he looked at me with a puzzled expression on his face.
“A secret mission so suddenly?”
“Oh, I’ll be there for a few days.”
“What’s wrong with North Korea? Now I hear there is no problem.”

Maybe it’s because you’re worried about me? all grown up Now you can even worry about me.
“Why do you look like that? I have no luck.”
“… … .”
Then yes. It’s been a while, but it’s wrong to be thrilled.
“Tell me the reason quickly.”
“It’s nothing.”
As Yun-Hee said, the North Korean side is quite stable.
We have secured all the necessary key points, and medium-sized guilds and small guilds are heading north in large numbers, concentrating on eradicating monsters.
As a result, Kaesong, the northern hub, is enjoying a tremendous boom. It is said that there are quite a few people who are frustrated because the government has been trying to develop Gaeseong as the main force, but what has not been done is to seize the opportunity and grow explosively.
“Because there are many troublesome guys hiding in various places.”
“okay? It will be annoying.”
In the first place, it seems that Yoon-hee asked the question without much thought. Then I shifted my gaze to the dog who was waiting next to me.
“It doesn’t matter. Why are you trying to take our Yepi?”
Here, Yepi was the name of Yoon Hee-sik, a monster that I gave her as a dog.
I said that I had a name that would fit my lips, but I only cursed because I had no sense.
really weird When I see it, I can remember it well and it feels like it melts in my mouth.
By the way, when I heard the name Yepi, Yoonhee’s naming sense doesn’t seem like anything to me.
Wouldn’t a doggie be better?
[You’re probably the only one who thinks it’s okay.]
So what about Yepi?
[Proof that you are brothers and sisters.]
Yong-yong is this child… I got it right.
Actually, I still think the dog is better.
If I tell Yoon-hee, she won’t understand, so I’ll just move on.
“Why are you taking me?”
“I’m the owner, so I have to take it with me.”
“You’re taking this little boy that far? I’m against this!”
Since when did you say you loved monsters so much?
I am the owner of the dogs who take them, but there are also those who want to make sure I can follow them properly while going on a long-distance expedition. If you can’t follow the owner’s path properly, it’s better to deal with it early.
Although I cried a few times, Yoon-hee nodded, knowing that she could not break my will.
“You have to come back without hurting a single hair! Yep, if the owner tries to touch you, run away and come to me!”
Well, if you take care of it, it might not hurt even a single hair.
“At that time, worry about your brother.”
“Are you human?”
“Then I won’t get hurt.”
“Was it possible to get hurt?”
“What kind of monster am I?”
Come to think of it, a dog is a monster, but I have received a lot of worries, but I am a human being, but I have not received a single worry. I feel like I’m being treated worse than a monster for some reason.
“If you look at it these days, it’s even more pitiful for demons.”
I am also a person who wants to be worried sometimes.
[Say something that makes sense.]
“… … .”
You are a sad person who is not recognized by neither your younger brother nor Shinsoo.
I guess I’ll have to give up worrying about this life.
* * *
Heading straight north, I passed Kaesong and headed for Pyongyang.
Pyongyang, where traces of Ryu Gwang-chol remained, was still infested with demons.
I heard that the government was going to clear the road to Pyongyang with the help of a large guild, but on the way, I managed to get rid of one of the remains of a level 8 monster and entered Pyongyang.
The city I had arrived in after a long time was lively unlike before.
That means that Joo-Ho Jung is doing well. It’s Joo-Ho Jung who trusts and writes.
Even though he grumbles, he is doing more than the role he was assigned to. In an isolated situation with a small number of people, he was playing his role 200% perfectly.
I met Chung Joo-ho at the President’s Palace and delivered the president’s personal letter.
I don’t know the content. Well, you’re struggling, please work harder in the future, maybe something like this.
After reading the whole thing, Joo-ho Jung sighed lightly and looked at me.
“What kind of mug did you come with?”
Why are you like this all of a sudden?
[That person must have been under a lot of stress. My hair roots are getting weaker.]
“… … .”
Suddenly it all makes sense.
At Yong-yong’s words, he could see why Jung Joo-ho had his nerves sharpened. As he was doing well in Pyongyang, it seems that his hair roots were dealing with the stress.
If it breaks here, there will be no turning back.
No, it’s already too late.
Is there really no way?
I once again asked Yong-yong how to overcome hair loss.
[Is that impossible?]
I’m sorry. I can only see that there is no real way to do this.
I sent my condolences to Jung Joo-ho’s hair root.
“I came here for work in the north.”
“… Is there anything that interferes with your work in China? Who has offended you?”
“It’s not like that.”
Even the president, everyone knows that if I do something wrong, I’m going to kill everyone.
I can admit about 90%, not 100%, but it makes me a little sad when I think of it as everything.
[What difference does that make?]
Still, one in ten will survive, right? What a difference it is that even one can survive.
[Stop sophistry!]
Yong-yong didn’t seem to understand this huge difference.
“It’s a gloomy thing, so I’m going to take a look.”
“I don’t know when it became an outing to kill someone, but do it yourself. Only the other guy was saddened.”
Jung Joo-ho was in the mood to move on without asking any more questions. Then he looked at the dog, who was waving his tail fiercely.
“What’s the dog next to you? It looks cute. Come here, juju!”
“It’s a monster. It is being tamed.”
“… okay?”
Jung Joo-ho, who was reaching out to reach the dog, stopped and hurriedly took his hand away. Everyone reacts dramatically differently when they see him as a puppy and when he recognizes that he is a monster.
“After hearing what you said, all of a sudden this little guy looks dangerous.”
“It’s not very dangerous. Weak.”
“Is that so?”
A typical example would be to cling to my leg and tremble. Dog Dog This guy had an amazingly developed survival instinct.
Jung Joo-ho also softened his vigilance as he did not feel any threat.
“How is the situation in the north?”
“After the hideout was completely robbed, it was quiet. China is currently running out of power. It is urgent to put out the lights on the insteps.”
“What are you talking about with the Wei Hao Gun?”
“Probably not the opinion of Wei Hao.”
It’s quite surprising to see Jung Joo-ho speaking in the sense of advocacy, isn’t it?
“You must be familiar with Wei Hao.”
“Uh, there was a riot from the north a while ago, and he came to fix it, and he politely asked for forgiveness, saying that he didn’t want to provoke us? I’ve never seen a Chinese do that. People are very polite.”
I did. As a teenager, I thought there would be a lot of regret, but it was a surprise.
China’s chronic problem here is that it lacks the number of high-ranking awakeners.
In particular, the number of superhumans was also insufficient, and when they were in the midst of possessing six superhumans, they shouted that there were 10 hidden superhumans in total, but now it is reduced to three, and it is said that they are in a situation where they can not even show their bluffs.
It’s comedy that I dealt with those three. Including Zhang Yuyuan and his younger brother, there are five people in total.
A typical example was that Yu Hao, who had been deployed far away due to lack of power, came.
“Apart from that, the leadership is in a situation where your instep is on fire when you accept Level 9.”
The Yuhao, called China’s pride, was a propaganda for the Chinese government. However, being semi-forced to be eliminated from the position of my early teens took a toll on my self-esteem.
Because they are people who live by pride and die by pride, it was taken as a serious insult or something.
So the hardliners still insist that we should march south of Mt. Baekdu.
Wei Hao revealed that he had no such thoughts at all.
I don’t know who’s right. Is this a slash-and-dash tactic?
“Oh, don’t worry, this is just an opinion.”
“All right.”
If anyone sees it, it will look like they are trying to find and kill them one by one.
The bottom line is that the leadership and Wi Hao have different views.
I typed it that way and asked another question.
“Are there any other news near Sinuiju?”
“God’s Lord? Sinuiju, I remember that it was a place that had an impact a while ago, but it didn’t matter. Does it have anything to do with coming here?”
“Yes.”
“Ugh. Come to think of it, I think I’ve heard that there is something similar to a cult.”
It was the information I was looking for. Jung Joo-ho is a small matter that he cannot even remember properly, but after a few years it becomes so large that it cannot be ignored.
“That’s right.”
“I heard it’s gone now.”
huh? This is a different story than I thought.
Isn’t it rather running around?
Did Jung Joo-ho disappear when he came to Pyongyang? Or did Yu Hao come and take it out?
“Isn’t that really true?”
“I haven’t been there, so I don’t know. When the locals squeeze each other and shut their mouths, we have nothing more to look for.”
Yet, that’s all it has to do with the influence it has on Sinuiju. We are in the midst of a fierce battle over the Chinese side.
In the end, I guess I’ll have to go to find out.
The information was sparse, but since we confirmed the reality, this is enough.
“All right. I’ll go over there and look at the rest.”
“… please don’t just crash yes?”
“I came here because I didn’t want to get into an accident. Thanks to that, my story doesn’t come out in the political arena.”
“Why don’t the politicians consider me?”
“Is that because the chief is comfortable?”
“No matter how much you think about it, it is clear that I sold the country twice in my previous life. Otherwise, I can’t be bothered by my wife at home and by you outside.”
I just wanted to tell you that I’m really sorry.
But isn’t it natural as a human being to want to bully you more when you hear that?
[Hey, isn’t that right?]
Yongyong, why are you suddenly arguing?
[Because I felt like harassing me too!]
This is really, I didn’t know that Shinsoo’s thoughts would coincide.
“and… … .”
Jung Joo-ho was looking at the end of his speech, wanting to do something.
Then Jung Joo-ho asked me with a sad smile.
“Isn’t Shinsu also unable to stop hair loss?”
“… … .”
I thought that not knowing was medicine. I think I remember asking Shinsoo how to do it.
I responded with silence.
and.
Shin-soo, who was suddenly unable to even fix her hair loss, saw Jung Joo-ho’s sad smile and muttered with an absurd expression.
[Is it so sad to have no hair?]
Well, I don’t know because I have a head.
* * *
As I headed to Sinuiju, I remembered how I got brainwashing in my last life.
The reason I met the guy who was a pseudo-teacher at the time was not for any particular reason.
After the Great Compromise of Cheon Myeong-guk, I was repeatedly pushed to the north, and in the process, I went in and out of the Chinese border and then returned to the south.
At the time, I was moving as the hematoma was leading, so my will wasn’t working. But now that I think about it, I think that my will to go south may have worked to some extent. My whole family was in Korea, and I had to be nearby to see it at least once.
Now that I think about it, I think the reason I didn’t meet Ryu Gwang-cheol was because I didn’t have to collide with the monster.
The cult leader had met while crossing the Chinese border.
At that time, Sinuiju was engulfed in a huge fanaticism, and it didn’t discriminate between the North Koreans and the Chinese.
There he was a living god.
“He was a shallow guy.”
The intention of the guy who invited me was obvious if he had ever heard of the name of a hematoma. It was intended to be indoctrinated by brainwashing.
However, the result was that the guy’s head was broken and the gift was taken away.
At that time, the followers were used as consumables to kill the hematomas that brainwashing couldn’t work.
The sight of him throwing his life away while laughing as the headmaster instructed was shocking to me as well. Through a systematic and efficient process, he annihilated and brainwashed the believers’ personalities.
It came to mind, so I’m definitely going to have to remove it.
Arriving in Sinuiju, the deteriorating urban landscape catches my eye. According to Zheng Ju-ho, it is a city that China has a lot of regrets because it has been greatly influenced by China.
Before that, it was the place where Ryu Gwang-cheol influenced.
So when I entered the city and looked around, it seemed that there were about half Chinese and half North Koreans.
It is a very important strategic location, so the government will take care of it.
“I do remember.”
As I traced back my memories of when I was a hematoma, the time difference was considerable, but little by little I started to remember. I was diligently running around the city, and even while panting, he followed me easily.
Following a familiar landscape, at some point, I was able to capture a familiar landscape.
A place not far from the base of the pseudo-teacher.
“Come here.”
After a while, they were able to reach the place where the main religious cult was located. It was a place that looked like a magnificent villa facing the mountain.
But it was strange. Where the strange heat and extravagance had to intersect, there was no human favourite. It was not annihilated by someone attacking it, but upon closer inspection, traces of people leaving a long time ago were found.
“Isn’t there?”
No, it was definitely not there. Here, he exerted great influence on Sinuiju and reigned like a god. The chaos occurred earlier than the original history, so now is the right time for him to thrive. Was it first made in China?
Confused, I entered the building. I passed the hallway, where the human touch had disappeared, creating a gloomy atmosphere.
It used to be full of bloodstains from cultists scratching with their nails.
“yes?”
And when I got to the waiting room, I saw a man standing there.
In his early fifties, he was a man with a long Mongolian body. It looked as if a huge rock was blocking the way.
He also lifted his head and fixed his gaze on me. The two of us exchanged glances for a moment.
“You are an unexpected tycoon.”
The man looked at me and spoke in Korean.
Has anyone in Korea possessed this level of skill?
“Who is it?”
“me? Weigh.”
It was Wei Hao, a former early teen.
