King Ahmed showed his closeness as if he had known me for a long time.
I remember what Nasir said. What I said before I became a superman, I’ve been keeping an eye on me. I don’t know if it has to do with this person’s eyes or if he’s lucky enough to shoot.
“yes?”
When I got to the airport and saw the scenery of Riyadh, I had to feel unfamiliar.
Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia, is the largest city in the Middle East and is known for its splendor as the capital of Saudi Arabia, which claims to be the leader of the Middle East.
But what I see now is a completely fortified city.
The skyscraper, which was once a symbol of splendor, was half-destroyed and turned into a fortress that intercepts flying monsters, and the structure was formed so that it could be used as cover throughout the city.
Once in that structure, low-level monsters won’t be able to easily access the center of the city.
King Ahmed said as I was watching the city carefully.
“Everything changes in order to survive. But the fools refused to change and wanted to settle down. While struggling to deny that the end is ruin.”
When the monster invasion reached its peak, it is said that Riyadh was also attacked. But his foolish brothers did not give up on the city’s splendor.
It caused more damage.
It took a long time to train the awakened, but the number of monsters increased day by day.
King Ahmed, who was not able to see it, prescribed the drug and succeeded.
“You have to use whatever you can to survive. That’s what made it possible to survive.”
“okay.”
It is said that he committed a brutal purge, was he rationalizing himself or was it shock therapy to survive?
I don’t know, but I know that King Ahmed has a very pragmatic view.
So, instead of entrusting it to someone below, he must have trained himself. In order to have the person below you do it, you have to understand the contents properly.
We headed to the palace. I had high expectations because it was a place where the king was staying, but the appearance was different from what I had expected.
“Did the royal palace also be invaded by monsters?”
“That’s right.”
It is said that a large number of royal families died at that time. Seeing the brothers who could not come to their senses despite the shock of that day, Ahmed said that he thought he should become the king.
Upon entering the palace, the once splendid appearance was preserved. Seeing the facilities that required huge maintenance costs were left unattended, he seemed to know what kind of person King Ahmed was.
Everything, not just the exterior, is focused on dealing with monsters.
“Relax. If you need anything, please tell Nasir.”
“It is.”
I was enveloped in a strange feeling as I looked around the dormitory, the pinnacle of splendor.
In fact, he does his best to treat his guests while being frugal in his royal palace. Was it on purpose? It was strangely different from the image I had imagined.
[I know.]
Yong-yong was also of the same thought, so he quarrels with each other.
After a short break at the dorm, we met again to have dinner together.
King Ahmed, who greeted me in a more comfortable outfit than a while ago, spoke with a smile.
“Thank you for coming again. my friend.”
“You’re the king’s friend, that’s good, but I’d like to hear why you invited me all the way here.”
Even though I went straight to the point, King Ahmed did not show any displeasure.
“It’s also straightforward as rumored.”
“I feel like I’ve done enough to say thank you for Article 100.”
“That is also true.”
So what is the purpose of calling me? Looking around the city, his support for the king seemed to be firm, and even here in Riyadh, I feel moderately stable.
Of course, considering the glory of the past, you can be greedy, but it doesn’t look like it’s going to be too much.
“Headbreaker, I invited you to be friends.”
friend? Are you saying you want to be friends by calling them close friends? Is this the meme? Already dating and confessing that kind of confirmation process?
While I was thinking about what I was saying, Yong-yong showed a strange reaction.
[Is he paying friend fees too? Please tell me quickly.]
We’re not even friends yet, so what’s the fuss about depositing the friend’s fee?
“It’s the first time I’ve heard that you want to be friends.”
I’ve heard it from Shinsoo, but it’s the first time I’ve heard it from a human.
“Haha, it’s a thought I’ve been hiding deep in my heart, so it’s good enough. What I said earlier was because I was happy.”
King Ahmed burst into laughter and explained why he wanted to be friends with me.
“I have decided to drive out my brothers and become king. As long as you call yourself a king, you must protect those under my rule. With that determination, I was able to practice bloody training and become a superman. But I clearly feel that that alone is not enough.”
The monsters were getting stronger day by day, and the number of superhumans was insufficient.
King Ahmed, who originally liked to socialize, invited the powerful to Saudi Arabia and began to build friendships with them.
It seems like the king’s extravagant hobby, but to King Ahmed, it was a desperate struggle for survival.
“When I was able to share the same views and thoughts with them, I could feel the breadth of my thinking broadened. I was able to see their cause, show respect and bring theirs and be strong. And I have been looking forward to meeting you, the head breaker among them.”
“I don’t have such a grand cause.”
“no. Your cause is so great and deep that no one will recognize it, and it resembles me.”
I?
It’s a golden door.
But King Ahmed said seriously.
“To punish the wicked without mercy. It is consistent with what we have been doing on this earth for a long time. We abused it to build notoriety and corrupt the cause, but the teaching is correct and certain.”
It is said that King Ahmed did his best to protect his brothers in this land no matter what stigma was placed on him, and he was convinced by seeing me that it was the surest way.
I resemble the king who slaughtered his brothers and established the strongest dictatorship among all kings.
Is this a compliment?
[From my point of view, do you think you are worse? That person is normal.]

Meanwhile, Yong-yong seemed unwilling to take my side.
“It can be said that the purpose of this meeting alone has been achieved, but I want to become stronger by hearing the opinions of the superhuman who hunted the world’s strongest plus-plus-level monsters.”
King Ahmed says he is ready to pay any price for that.
It certainly looks like the decision has been made solid. It was also nice to see a forward-looking attitude to develop skills.
There was an image of a poor man who was falling apart while selling oil to build wealth, but there were also good people everywhere.
And if a leader is confident in the right direction, the society he leads can develop at a dazzling speed.
Since more than 90% of the country is a desert, there is a reason why Saudi Arabia, which was occupied by monsters, still has a presence.
“Why do you want to be strong?”
“I want to hunt the nightmare of the desert.”
“A nightmare in the desert?”
“The name of the monster that drove us to the brink of destruction.”
There is a being called a god in the vast Arabian Desert in Saudi Arabia.
This was a devastating blow to Saudi Arabia, and was worshiped as a god by some desert tribes.
To a certain extent, he thinks that even being eaten by that god is God’s decision, and he docilely accepts his fate.
King Ahmed trembled.
“Without that monster, we would not have fallen like this. I regret not being able to protect the people from them because of my weakness. It would have been better if my strength had been more supportive… … .”
I wondered if the nightmare of the desert was such a great monster, but King Ahmed said that it is difficult to find him because he uses the desert that occupies most of the country as his own territory, and even if he finds it, it is difficult to call him into an environment suitable for hunting.
The entire Arabian Desert is his territory.
He’s a guy who uses a wide range of habitats.
According to King Ahmed, the difficulty of hunting Nightmare in the Desert is close to impossible.
Even the measurement of strength is impossible, but in my opinion, it is not reasonable.
If you take it out in the desert and look at your body, you are just a monster. If he blows his head off, he’s bound to die too.
Do you consider such a person to be a god? It’s the most absurd sound I’ve ever heard.
In any case, I understand that King Ahmed has a great thirst for power.
You want to get stronger and hunt down the nightmare and stuff.
“Friend, can you help me?”
“I think it’s different from the first words.”
“It doesn’t matter if you refuse. Just meeting you has fulfilled my purpose.”
He proudly said that he would try to stab him at least once.
Is it because he’s a king? Why don’t you feel subdued at all when you ask? Rather, it feels more dignified than Yong-yong.
[Why am I there?]
It’s just the comparison group.
I did not believe the words that came out of my mouth anyway, so I listened to King Ahmed’s request and thought about it for a while.
“I don’t give free help.”
“I am willing to pay anything in return.”
“What can I give you?”
“Anything! Especially when it comes to oil, anything is possible.”
King Ahmed told me that there is an unlimited supply of oil.
Although eco-friendly energy sources have emerged with the advent of monsters, oil still occupies the best place of energy in mankind. Korea suffers from chronic energy shortages as it is almost impossible to import oil. Even though he took his breath away by hunting monsters, if possible, oil is still the most efficient energy.
The reason Saudi Arabia was able to maintain its state was because of its desperate efforts to protect its oil refinery facilities as more important than human lives.
If we secure a safe route, we will sell oil at a low price. The president would like it if he heard it.
Of course, there are concerns about transportation, but this time I found a solution while boarding the plane.
You can safely go to and from the oil tanker by simply inserting the dragon’s claws one by one.
Does this seem surprisingly feasible? It will be money too.
[hey! Why is it all of a sudden there?]
Yong-yong shouted in shock, but I didn’t care.
I don’t think he was trying to kill with a single claw for making him meet the author of God. Because Yong-yong is not that rare of a divine beast.
Do your toenails grow quickly anyway?
[No, why all of a sudden? It hurts me to pluck my toenails.]
I’ll pull it out so it won’t hurt, so let’s just take what you provide.
You say it’s a big help to your friend because you’re sick for a while, but you’re blatantly rejecting it?
[I’m not saying that… … .]
Anyway, this was a story that could be told when all went well.
I’ll have to make sure the oil tankers are still there, and I’ll have to deal with the desert nightmare of Saudi Arabia’s worries and all that stuff.
To be honest, the desert was a harsh environment, but it didn’t seem difficult.
After organizing my thoughts, I said to King Ahmed.
“I’ll help you.”
King Ahmed’s expression brightened upon hearing my answer.
“Five! After all, you are Saudi Arabia’s friend and benefactor. Thank you very much.”
“It’s not like hunting a single monster is what it sounds like.”
It may be a god with overwhelming power to them, but not to me.
Then I have to prepare.
“Let’s go to the training room.”
“Yes?”
King Ahmed’s expression did not understand.

Maybe you thought I’d hunt you?
If so, you are mistaken. When I say that I will help, it does not mean that I will prepare and feed myself.
“I’m not the one who catches the fish, I’m the one who teaches you how to fish.”
In the process, even if you drown in the sea or get stabbed to death by a fish, there is nothing you can do about it.
Everyone has to take that risk.
If you succeed, you catch a monster, and if you fail, you become food.
If you learn how to catch it yourself, it will be a valuable asset.
King Ahmed was the only one who understood what I was saying.
“no way… … .”
“I’ll help you get stronger.”
Rather than inviting superhumans to have a noble conversation and spying on their lives, the shortcut to becoming stronger is to fight.
Just looking at it, I can see that he has been training hard so far, so he looks good at rolling.
How long will that well-trained body last until it screams?
I wanted to hit it right now.
I made eye contact with King Ahmed and smiled.
“You only trust me. Basically, friends trust each other.”
[Is that so?]
Yong-yong, astonished, was proving with his whole body that it wasn’t like that until now.
Actually, I didn’t trust Yong-yong either, so we’re each other’s teachers.
But even if I don’t believe it, the other person can trust me.
“The easiest thing in the world is to be strong.”
