Inside a small cafe in Seoul.
Seo Hyun-woo sat down first and waited for someone to come.
The plan he had in mind was gradually taking shape, so he wanted to make adjustments in advance.
The Eastern Kraxis Church changed its internal structure through Ryu Seon-hwa, so there was no need to worry too much.
‘Now we have to touch the Sado side. Shin Da-hee should know enough now.’
The evidence was that Shin Da-hee was gathering the apostles and building a subjugation team.
Recognizing Baek Seo-yeon as the vessel of the archangel, Seo Hyeon-woo and Jin Se-hee received a revelation, so they intuited that the time of advent had come.
Above all, Seo Hyun-woo did not become an apostle even after receiving the revelation, so Shin Da-hee had no choice but to question it.
‘Dahee Shin just prepares in advance. The time of advent is decided by Rune and Baek Seo-yeon.’
Dahee Shin was going to try to follow the will of the archangel Runne based on the revelation.
Because Rune didn’t come down just because he wanted it.
That’s why I didn’t say anything to Baek Seo-yeon and just watched.
‘Dahee Shin must have already contacted Sehee Jin. So Jin Se-hee also changed her attitude toward Baek Seo-yeon.’
The actions of each character were going as expected by Seo Hyun-woo.
If it goes like this, Baek Seo-yeon and the apostles would join under the leadership of Shin Da-hee.
However, even during this time, one variable had arisen, so the plan could go a little wrong.
‘You inherited the power of the Archangel too quickly. When that time comes, will I be able to protect the chairmanship from Baek Seo-yeon?’
Seo Hyun-woo did not think that Baek Seo-yeon would become stronger than himself while attending Miterichi.
According to the description, Baek Seo-yeon would fully inherit the power of the Archangel after encountering the original Seo Hyeon-woo.
However, since that time has been advanced by six months, it may have come before the completion of the course.
‘Am I being too greedy? It might have been better to go out a little…’
Seo Hyun-woo stopped thinking and got up straight away.
It was to be polite because the person I was going to meet had entered the cafe.
“How were you?”
“Can I say I’m doing well? I have a lot of work to do these days, so I’m busy.”
Dahee Shin smiled brightly and got on the chair.
Seo Hyun-woo orders coffee separately and continues the conversation.
“sorry. I don’t know if I’m just wasting my time.”
“no. it’s okay. If there is a meeting with the student council president, of course I have to run.”
Dahee Shin lifts the coffee cup with her small hand and sips slowly.
Seo Hyun-woo was arranging what to say in his head, and then opened his mouth again.
“I know that the White Lady is an apostle.”
“… since when did you know?”
Dahee Shin put the coffee cup on the table and answered calmly.
One day, he had to reveal his identity to Seo Hyun-woo.
Rather, he approached himself after noticing it in advance, so I thought he was lucky as it was.
“I did not know until after I received a revelation.”
“Then why have you been pretending not to know?”
“I wanted to watch a little more. They said they were going to create a subjugation team, so I thought the time had come.”
“How much do you know?”
“I also know that the two people brought in at that time were apostles. The subjugation team must have been created for the Archangel.”
“…”
Shin Da-hee quietly looked at Seo Hyun-woo with her mouth closed.
Apparently, he seemed to be well aware of the reason for the apostle’s existence and the advent of the archangel Runne.
Besides, didn’t he meet with himself alone, noticing in advance that he should not mention the archangel to Baek Seo-yeon?
“You seem to have something you want to say to me.”
“Yes, that’s right. It is also related to the vice-chairman, and I have prepared this place to briefly explain my future plans.”
Shin Da-hee was convinced when she heard those words.
Perhaps Seo Hyun-woo thought that his existence was hindering the progress of the plan.
In addition to that, Baek Seo-yeon is included in the plan, so maybe he is trying to negotiate with him.
“…Is there something wrong with me?”
“no. I just want you to understand my position.”
“You seem to have decided to do something with the vice president of the student body.”
“I decided to form a subjugation team with the vice president. In addition to that, there are a few more appointed people. Of course, I can’t guarantee that things will go as planned.”
Seo Hyun-woo didn’t think that everything would always go his way.
It was just preparing in advance and inducing it to flow in the desired direction.
Even the three people who agreed to be on his side could change their minds at any time, so it was only seen as a possibility.
“So what do you want to do?”
“After fully inheriting power, we give the vice president a choice. If I choose the white saint, I and my subjugation team will follow along.”
“… Then if you choose the student council president, I can follow you?”
“Are you going to do what I say?”
Shin Da-hee shows a serious expression and is deeply troubled.
At first glance, it seemed that he was at a disadvantage.
But there was no such thing as a must, and he had a chance.
Above all, isn’t there a significant advantage in being able to acquire Baek Seo-yeon and Seo Hyun-woo at the same time?
“Is there any reason why you want to become the leader of the subjugation team?”
“When I lead the subjugation team, I can ensure the safety of the team members. The speed or the number of subjugations is not important.”
“It’s a little strange. If safety comes first, isn’t there any reason to create a subjugation team?”
“We will subdue the dungeon, but we will do our best to avoid casualties. I have no intention of abusing my position as team leader. Experienced people should not be ignored.”
Shin Da-hee was already aware of Seo Hyun-woo’s intentions.
It must have been that he, his apostles, and even those who were expected to join the subjugation team were all going to be taken away.
Hopefully, he is trying to use Baek Seo-yeon, who has inherited his power.
“It looks like my subjugation team should also walk.”
“The fundamentals do not change. It’s just a matter of who becomes the team leader.”
“What are you aiming for, so you want to take it to my subjugation team?”
“… Shouldn’t we be prepared? Even on the Chinese side, the undead are running rampant. It must have been their fault that they made a way over the sea and invaded the armistice.”
Already on the Chinese side, Vice Lich Lenus and Abyss Knight Oriax were slowly taking over the Chinese territory.
That was not enough, so he continued to interfere with the number of undead under his command so as not to subdue the dungeon.
After the undead forces were sufficiently secured, they would neutralize China and cross over the territory of other countries.
‘The Invokers will come through the gate soon. He’s weakened a lot, but he’s not an easy opponent.’
Thunder God Invocus.
It was one of the Four Great Hells and a first-class monster with powerful lightning properties.
In the original content, all Setinos Hunters and Black Hunters had to come forward to subdue Invokers.
But even he could only succeed in subjugation after suffering considerable damage.
“You’ve already seen that far.”
“It doesn’t matter if the White Lady doesn’t believe in me. I will believe in the White Lady. Even if you become the leader of the subjugation team on my behalf, I can trust you.”
Upon hearing this, Shin Da-hee was puzzled and looked into Seo Hyun-woo’s eyes.
It was clean, but with a gun in it, it was indigo blue eyes.
What the hell are you thinking about making such a suggestion?
‘Isn’t there a separate subjugation team? I can’t. As a student, how…’
***
Near the entrance to the main gate of Miterich.
Long red hair tied down, a reddish-brown T-shirt that fits perfectly, and ivory-colored cotton pants that seem a little light.
Jin Se-hee looked around and fiddled with the pack of cigarettes in her pocket.
Because it was summer vacation, there was no way that there would be any staff or students left in Miterici.
Of course, there will be students living in the dormitory, but that’s enough.
‘I heard that the president and general managers are training together… Shall we just smoke this and go see it?’
Jin Se-hee enters Miterichi and looks around from time to time.
Even though there were no students, I had no intention of breaking the rules.
I was just trying to smoke a cigarette in the smoking area.
‘It doesn’t matter if other people see it… It’s a bit like that.’
Jin Se-hee took a cigarette out of the cigarette pack and immediately put it in her mouth.
Then, the tip of the cigarette is lit by creating a white flame on the index finger of his right hand.
As he inhaled, the strong cigarette smoke began to travel up his throat and fill his lungs.
‘After all, the cigarettes smoked here are strangely attractive. I don’t know why, but…’
“Is it possible that you came all the way here to smoke?”
“Collock, Colok!”
Jin Se-hee feels the presence of late, coughing and exhaling cigarette smoke.
Seo Hyun-woo, dressed in sportswear, was looking at him with a grim expression on his face.
“Collock…what are you doing here?”
“I came here to see someone for a while.”
“You should have known it was me.”
“But you can’t watch it secretly, can you? And if you get caught, you will be misunderstood.”
“…there was another way to pass quietly.”
“How do you pass by quietly when you meet someone you know?”
“after…”
Jin Se-hee tries to argue more, but gives up soon.
It wasn’t very wrong, and I didn’t even want to argue.
Rather, he pretended to know, so I thought it would be a little reassuring.
“Why don’t you go and watch the training before you go? There are managers.”
“… ah, is this what it is? Did the student council executives get together and train during last winter vacation?”
“It’s like group training.”
Seo Hyun-woo does not move on the spot and does not take his eyes off Jin Se-hee.
Jin Se-hee unconsciously puts a cigarette to her mouth and then stops.
“Why are you doing this?”
“Since you have already opened it, open it all the way. Isn’t it worth throwing it away?”
“Do you miss me smoking so much?”
“I just keep hiding it, so I can’t help but wonder.”
“after…”
Jin Se-hee tries to throw a cigarette in the trash, but soon changes her mind.
Seo Hyun-woo already knew that he smoked.
Is it really necessary to hide the appearance of smoking in front of Seo Hyun-woo?
“Look at it. I’ll show you whatever you want.”
“Now you look a little more like you. I wish I had done that earlier, but why are you so insistent…”
Seo Hyun-woo laughs and watches Jin Se-hee’s actions.
Jin Se-hee puts a cigarette between the index and middle fingers of her right hand and puts it to her mouth.
Then slowly inhale the cigarette smoke and exhale immediately again.
For some reason, I thought it looked a little cool.
‘The timing is not bad. Shall I tell you to come to my side right now? I already know about the apostle, so it wouldn’t be too difficult to convince me.’
