75 – Identity Revealed
The serious atmosphere quickly changed to something subtle.
And the person who played a decisive role in that was digging his ears with his little finger and making a fuss.
Somehow, I felt that I was an outgoing person who felt so out of place with this place.
“Yumma.”
Joo-Won used an expression used when calling a friend to see if he was familiar with that person.
“What?”
“Get a hold of the atmosphere.”
“I felt like the old men’s expressions would kill me at any moment, so I ventilated them. Thank you?”
“Huh….”
With that said, there is nothing more to say.
But who is this person?
“Yoo Young-eun is a guy I’ve known for a long time… I own Black Technology.”
Black Technology?
Why does the person who has it… Come out of here?
No, it might come out.
This is the headquarters of the GB Group, and Mr. Joo Won is the next chairman of the GB Group.
“You said Brave, right? I think I’m your older brother, can I speak comfortably?”
“Oh, yes. Please.”
“He is a good friend. Would you like some candy?”
Ms. Yeong-eun said that and handed out a lollipop to me.
I accidentally accepted the candy.
“As expected, there should be a young person like this rather than only old people.”
I could see blood vessels on the foreheads of everyone except me and Joo-won.
Still, no one got angry.
“Kuhm. After all, he is a very dangerous man.”
Professor Jeong Dae-han turned the topic to the guy who was reflected on the screen.
“Surely so. I’ve never heard of any psychic powers registered with the Hero Association having such psychic powers.”
Mr. Cheol-su knew a lot about rare superpowers as he was an executive of the Hero Association, but he said he was not sure what Nome’s superpowers were.
It is a dangerous ability that can break the wrists of those with body hardening abilities.
Since even telekinesis doesn’t work, it means that you can’t subdue him with ordinary means.
“Still, that means you have something of your own, Professor?”
“Of course, Mr. Inhyuk.”
The professor nodded at the negotiator, Mr. Inhyeok’s question, and moved his head as if looking around his audience.
“Then, from now on, the information I obtained from the company in my own way,”
“Professor, wait!”
“… Is there a problem?”
“A man or a bastard… Isn’t it difficult because the name is not decided like that? Let’s start with a name to refer to him.”
I think it would be inconvenient if I didn’t decide on a name.
Unlike earlier, we decided to start with a name for the guy, following the story of Mr. Young-eun, who brought up a reasonable story.
“Brave means a warrior, so the opposite, the demon king? Satan or demon?”
Professor Jeong Dae-han seems to have some knowledge in this field as well.
It felt like a pretty plausible name came out.
“Well, keep it for now.”
However, it seemed that Young-eun was not so willing.
I’m a bit of a self-paced person, so I don’t know what I’ll like.
In this way, one by one, opinions on the title came out, but most of them seemed to think about the devil.
“Tsk tsk tsk.”
But Mr. Yeong-eun clicked his tongue as he looked around at his audience.
“The enemy is the demon king… It’s not some 90’s JRPG, it’s a demon king?”
As Youngeun said that, a thick tendon sprouted from Professor Jeong Dae-han’s forehead, who seemed calm.
From noble mtl dot com
Ah… Professor Jeong Dae-han may unexpectedly like JRPGs.
“If you give an enemy such a grandiose title, it’s kind of a dick, right? Isn’t it?”
Is that so?
Everyone nodded their heads as if they thought Yeong-eun’s words were plausible.
“Since he’s a dog after all, it’s okay to give him a dog-like title, right?”
“So what title did you think of?”
When the professor asked with a lot of strength, Young-eun smiled and opened his mouth.
“Since you’re a pervert, let’s use Humbert.”
It was a bit strange for grown-ups to call someone by names like demon king, demon, or satan.
So, Youngeun’s argument had no choice but to be accepted.
K-Humbert.
Youngeun’s expression was pretty when he said that and sold it….
“… Surprisingly, it may not be too bad.”
The professor said that with a sense of sincerity.
The audience looked at the professor as if asking for his opinion.
“Just as you can understand someone’s outward appearance to some extent just by their accent, you can also get a lot of information from their story.”
The professor slowly began to explain the situation as if he were lecturing at a university somewhere.
“First of all, Humbert said that he created this society himself.”
We nodded at the professor’s words.
“Humbert tends to consider his actions as reasonable or reasonable.”
The professor told the story by analyzing Humbert’s tone and lines one by one.
“The monster was described as an external enemy. It must be an extension of the story that if there are foreign enemies, they will unite.”
Monsters are very annoying.
Because of its size, it is not easily killed with normal weapons.
As a result, among the fever weapons, weapons such as missiles, cannons, and atomic bombs must be mobilized.
Since the place where the monster appeared was in a big city, it is impossible to avoid secondary damage caused by the weapon used to catch the monster.
“From the beginning, you might have thought that psychics would appear after the appearance of monsters. I don’t even know if I had future poetry until now.”
The professor nodded his head with a serious expression, and then continued his speech.
“Humbert refers to First.”
After saying that, the professor looked at Inhyeok.
Mr. Inhyeok nodded as if he had read the intent of his gaze and continued his explanation.
“When talking about the foregoing, the volume is steady and slightly slow. But when I mention first, the volume goes up and the tempo of the conversation picks up. It means that the company attaches special meaning to First.”
There is a type of person who speaks faster and more often when a story he likes comes up.
Even if you’re not that kind of person, when a topic you’re interested in is mentioned, you’ll get excited somewhere.
And that was the story of Humbert too.
First is a man who has had a tremendous impact, to the extent that it can be said that he created this hero society.
People call him First, which means he is the first hero to appear in this world.
The demon who created the disaster called the Kaiju shows great attachment to First, who played a big role in stabilizing this society.
“Perhaps Humbert is more of a fundamentalist.”
Nome brought up the story that the essence of a hero is a vigilante.
There is a superhero movie that became the most popular in America.
In that movie, there is a scene where the heroes, who were once a team, split into two teams and fight each other.
It started with a problem related to the nature of the hero as a vigilante.
A team that wants to become an organization under the government, and a team that is made up of vigilantes, the essence of heroes.
The two teams fight each other.
ㅡ Civil War…. It’s a f*cking movie.
Oh no.
That’s not important right now….
ㅡ You know I wouldn’t do this if I had any other choice but he’s my friend.
ㅡ So was I…. A man who betrays his friends cannot be forgiven.
No, that’s not important right now, you bastard.
By bringing up the story of vigilantes, the essence of a hero, Nom expressed a feeling that the current hero industry was not to be desired.
It is said that he has the tendency of a fundamentalist obsessed with the existence of a true hero.
So that’s why I was taken by him.
“It is an existence with a part that I am particular about unexpectedly. It’s very human.”
Be human….
“I described the reason for not touching Brave’s parents as ‘fun’. It means you have your own philosophy. It’s pretty emotional there.”
After saying that, the professor looked at Youngeun.
“That… There is a part where Humbert’s expression becomes a little more stern at that moment when he spit out abusive words about his parents. He might be the type of person who doesn’t touch his family unexpectedly.”
“Ha!”
While listening to the story, Mr. Cheolsu frowned with an expression full of energy.
“Tens of thousands of people die every year as monsters, but such a person has his own philosophy of not touching his family? He’s like a dog.”
Everyone nodded deeply to see if they agreed with that opinion.
“So to sum it up, he’s a bastard, but he’s a bastard with a reasonable mindset. He’s a f*cking asshole who likes to play with things rather than unilaterally slam them. He only spit out lines that seemed pretentious in his appearance…. Am I right?”
No, even though it’s the same expression, it feels so different….
But it was very subtle that it wasn’t wrong.
“Kuhm. Anyway, now we have to talk about how to catch the monster in Seoul.”
The professor leaked Yeong-eun’s story and led the flow of the story again.
Monster Detector can no longer find monsters.
Then we have to find the monster in another way.
Which method should be mobilized?
Our eyes naturally turned to Youngeun, who had been swearing until just now.
Black Technology’s social status was that strong.
He was a smart person, so he looked at me wondering if he would give me an answer.
“The answer is… I’m going to go.”
Mr. Yeong-eun said that he must have known the answer in advance.
“It’s hard work… ?”
“Didn’t you first announce how Brave caught the mimicking monster? You know when you cut your clothes.”
So, the disgusting bullying game of monster eradication became popular for a while.
“If all of the clothes were mimicked, the body temperature would be different. Other than that, I can think of a few other ways.”
It’s not like there’s no way to find it.
However, the expression “Nogada” Was inevitable.
Politicians are looking for a scapegoat to avoid public criticism.
So you have to be careful not to leak the Flash’s story.
The number of people who know about this Humbert must be small to avoid information leaking out on the surface.
It is an act of checking all citizens of Seoul with a small number of people who will not be noticed by the government.
There is only one week left.
There is no expression as honest as the expression “Nogada”.
“Is there any way?”
At Joo-Won’s question, Young-Eun showed a troubled expression.
“Since it’s a monster, if you catch it, dismantle it, and study it, something new might come out.”
To the monster, the nucleus plays the same role as the human brain or heart.
So even if there is no crystallized core, there is something to replace it.
But there are no clues yet, so if you catch and study even one monster, you might get a hint to catch another monster.
That was the explanation.
Currently, except for Youngeun, the other two black technology talents are on leave.
So, Young-eun alone should have enough time to analyze the monster.
You should have at least 3-4 days out of a week.
It felt like I was facing a difficult problem from the beginning.
We endlessly repeated discussions with Humbert to catch the monster.
Catching the guy who was at a loss on his own felt like a little bit of an outline was revealed.
***
After the discussion, it was already 9:00 p.M. When we arrived in front of the house in the car that Mr.
Because I didn’t sleep much anyway, I thought I’d take a quick shower and go out to find the monster.
Mr. Yeong-eun said that he would prepare a heat detector by tomorrow to catch the monster, but I was nervous and couldn’t sleep easily.
That was the moment I approached the door with that thought in mind.
“Senior….”
“Huh?”
The moment I was about to go inside, the author started talking to me.
As if he had been here since morning until now, the author stood there, looking tired.
ㅡ Oops, Brave. I can’t run away any longer.
It was the moment Grid said so.
“Seo, senior? Who was that?!”
The author was startled and she stepped back.
Huh?
