Chapter 332 the devil is back (4)

Kazat summoned Inmyeonjo and flew away because Hyunmoo’s ‘Reverse Summon’ didn’t work anymore.

Now that Hyunmoo’s connection to Difficulty: Hell is slimmer, it seems impossible to send or bring in monsters.

It was ironic that summoning worked but reverse summoning didn’t work, but I was satisfied with the new knowledge I got.

Hyunmoo got back on Albert’s plane right after negotiating with Ivan. After refueling, the plane flew toward the east.

“Go, Kang Hyunmoo.”

“Why again?”

Hyunmoo, who had tilted the airplane chair back and closed his eyes, opened his mouth.

“The Almighty will obey your orders, and I know that Chrom’s Lee Ji-tae and Adam Fort are friendly to you. Also, if even the ‘Demon King’ Kazat belongs to your family… are you already a ‘star’?”

Hyunmoo slowly opened his eyes and looked at Albert in a funny way.

“You must have heard a story from the teacher.”

“Answer me. Kang Hyunmoo. If you have already become a star and the game of this world is over…”

“Half right and half wrong.”

Hyunmoo closed his eyes again.

“It’s true that I became a star, but the game isn’t over. And looking at the status quo, it doesn’t seem like it will ever end. Maybe the world will stay like this forever?”

“…without a winner in the game?”

“Yeah. Without a winner.”

At those words, Albert jumped up from his seat as if indignant.

“Then there is no possibility of the best future forever! A world where everything is justly realized, there is no sorrow or pain, no strife or anger!”

“Yeah. What’s wrong with that?”

“What’s the problem, the teacher was trying to create such a heaven. With our own hands! Rather than expecting a heaven that may or may not exist after death, we would directly build an eternal kingdom on this earth!”

“Wow, that’s really creepy. Your pseudo-religion is over.”

Hyunmoo took a deep breath and answered.

“Listen, ex-President. It’s a little different from yours, but I’ve already seen a world where the winner is decided. A world where life is just tied to the viciousness of the winner.”

“Have you seen the world where the winner is decided? Do you have the same abilities as the teacher?”

“It’s not irrelevant, but it’s a little different. In any case, the survivors there somehow survived and struggled to take even a piece of land left. It’s really funny. The way they fight while saying they are transcendent and the strongest.”

Albert didn’t know what Hyunmoo was talking about. Hyunmoo wasn’t really asking Albert to understand.

Hyunmoo continued his words as if reading through his memories.

“Then let’s say how well they fought and won. So what do you think? Do you think it’s going to be over after declaring that they won? No. The world has already been ‘determined’ and nothing more. Silently, silently, nothing happens. ”

“So, in order not to come to such a world, we have to fight even harder…”

“I don’t understand, old man.”

Hyunmoo turned his body on his back and looked straight at Albert.

“What kind of effort is put into a story that has been completed? The world in which one star has won is already a closed world. Even if it is not like this, it is already too late. It is impossible to fight or change. You get locked up, and the locals see it as the best value.”

Winning a game and becoming a star is like becoming a milestone.

Milestones forever point in one direction and guide travelers, but that’s it.

The milestones don’t go anywhere.

You will never know if you are even pointing in the right direction. Because they are already immersed in their own thoughts.

“I don’t understand.”

Albert said stubbornly. Hyunmoo thought so too.It wasn’t really a question with an answer.

Hyunmoo thought that the completed world was not good, but Albertna may have wished for a grand and great future that Hyunmoo could not even imagine.

However, there are people who cannot keep up with that shining world.

“Kang Hyunmoo, although you are so strong… We haven’t been playing around for the past three years either. You can’t rely on one person’s favor to keep the world going.”

“Aha, you’re threatening.”

Hyunmoo said with a single smile.

“You’re so timid enough to just ask me if I’m a star, you’re so good-natured. So you’re going to kill me?”

“If you get in the way of our best future, we’ll find a way somehow. Even if you kill me, someone will…”

“Okay. Do that.”

“What?”

“He said he hasn’t played in 3 years. Then prepare. Prepare as much as possible to kill me. Gather the strength of the entire alliance, don’t waste a single measure, collect everything thoroughly, and then dig a trap to kill me. Anytime you call me. I will go there.”

“Well, what do you mean…”

For a moment, Albert looked into Hyunmoo’s eyes and trembled.

Hyunmoo was sincerely hoping, not pretentiously.

Indeed, may Albert do all he can to gather all of his allies, and clash with all his might.

Hyunmoo was only treating Albert like trash.

“Otherwise, build the best future with your own hands.”

Albert was awakened by Hyunmoo’s words. Hyunmoo made a generous offer like a kind and kind person.

“Don’t talk like a teacher or a utopia, but the best future you can create as a former president of the United States, as a diplomat, as a politician. Then you will know what to do and how to do it.”

Albert bit his mouth tight. What Hyunmoo said was simple.

“The teacher said that. He just needs to do his job properly in his place. So what can you do?”

For the best future, you should not fight Kang Hyunmoo.

But at the same time, he had to put up a fight.

***

Rumors that started out somewhere spread faster than Hyunmoo and Albert thought.

Ghostly rumors began to swept through the mouths of a Romanian hunter, an airport employee, a Russian military sighting, a South Korean immigration officer, and an American diplomat.

Kang Hyunmoo showed up.

Kang Hyunmoo, who was known to be dead, has returned.

Most of the rumors were ignored as they were treated as ghost stories that the Beatles or Hitler were alive.

However, clear testimonies continued, and even less clear photos began to be revealed gradually.

The first thing that moved when the news was heard were those who had already had in mind that Kang Hyunmoo might not have died from the beginning.

“Kang Hyunmoo appeared.”

Chrome HQ.

Adam Fort looked at Lee Ji-tae as if it was ridiculous.

Lee Ji-tae’s body was all drenched in sweat. She seemed to have come and stirred the world. He even entered through the window without using the official entrance.

The star who took the lead after ‘piercing’ the teacher left him for some reason.

Lee Ji-tae could not let go of the feeling that the leading star used him as a tool.

The leading star may see an undesirable future and may have used Lee Ji-tae as a tool to prevent that future.

However, Lee Ji-tae decided not to be greatly dissatisfied with that fact.

With or without the stellar blessing, Lee Ji-tae was still a powerful man and one of Chrome’s top executives.

“Is it Kang Hyunmoo?”

“Yeah. They said it was found in Romania. They said they moved to Russia with Albert Cromford. The Russian side denies it, but it seems that they have already been silent.”

“Do you remember the number of times you went to find Kang Hyunmoo when you heard the rumor that he was alive?”

Adam Fort said suspiciously. The appearance of Kang Hyunmoo they remember was so terrible that it was hard to put into words.

Even if he’s alive, it’s like he won’t be able to get up for the rest of his life.

Lee Ji-tae nodded her head and said.

“It’s different this time. The intelligence agencies of each country are trying to determine the authenticity, and the alliance and the South China Alliance are also in an uproar. They say there are quite reliable testimonies.”

“Hmm. The Almighty’s reaction?”

“That… it’s strangely unresponsive. It’s not strange even when I first heard the rumors. It’s still a confrontation with the South China Coalition.”

Adam Fort’s eyes widened at those words. She hurriedly got up from her seat and started dressing up in her attire.

“Then you’re really back. Lee Ji-tae, can you afford to use more of your ultimate? I’ll have to go to Almighty Training as soon as possible.”

“Why?”

“If Kang Hyunmoo had really returned, he would have contacted Yumin first. Then there’s no reason to go looking for Kang Hyunmoo in a panic like you. Maybe Kang Hyunmoo will find it for you, so I’ll be waiting for you.”

Then she said that she couldn’t afford to give her a single call, while Lee Ji-tae had a sad expression on her face.

But she wasn’t overly sad either. Because it wasn’t even a day or two.

“Then why do you want to go to Almighty Training?”

“Kang Hyunmoo went to the Almighty, and now, what do you think Kang Hyunmoo will do with the South China Union?”

“Come down quickly. Do your best.”

***

Seo-yeon Lee quickly walked down the hallway with her firm expression on her face.

Behind her, Wang Xinliang, president of the South China Union, followed with her anxious expression.

“Lee Seo-yeon, why are you in such a hurry?”

“Hurry up? Hurry up? Is this a rush right now? Hurry means you should have finished negotiating with Almighty Ryeon sooner or later. You insisted that you could…”

But he couldn’t help but blame the king. Who could have predicted that Kang Hyunmoo would return?

Seo-yeon Lee also agreed in the end, so she was forced into this situation.

They were heading to a conference room prepared by Taesung Group, South Korea. It was for the final negotiations with the Almighty.

The fact that Wang Xinliang, president of the South China Union, visited South Korea is proof that they were crowded, but at the same time, the meeting room was held at least by the Taeseong Group, the backbone of the South China Union, so it was able to keep its pride.

Seoyeon Lee saw this as a positive sign. The Almighty also wants to negotiate.

The South China Alliance was now more of a multinational coalition rather than a China-led country, and corporations and clans could exert as much influence as the state.

Because of this, her starving talents lost their power, and now, Seo-yeon Lee’s position was enough to be called a real power.

She said, ‘Damn it, damn it, damn it.’

When she heard the news that Kang Hyunmoo had died, she said that Seo-yeon Lee’s feelings for her were complex.

Seo-yeon Lee tried to be helpful to Hyunmoo, and at the same time, she also used Hyunmoo a lot.

In particular, Kang Hyunmoo’s neutralization of Helen was her best performance. But in the end, Kang Hyunmoo died.

Although Lee Seo-yeon thought she was lucky, she couldn’t help but be nervous about the fact that from now on, he had to do it on his own.

But over the past three years, she’s been doing just fine.

When the game did not progress, the stars left, and when the authority of her powerful men weakened, Seo-yeon Lee was able to take over the South China Union naturally. It was not difficult for her, who still had the power of her star that she whispered.

Now, I can tell Kang Hyunmoo that I have come this far without your help.’But why now?’

The problem was that at this point Kang Hyunmoo really appeared.

He’s like a loan shark who came to get backed debt.

It was still just a rumor, but Lee Seo-yeon saw it as a fairly reliable rumor. He had to quickly negotiate with the Almighty, while it was still only a rumor.

“Still, we have an edge over the Almighty. Japan is right in front of Korea, and the total force and equipment are superior. Nuclear weapons, although I don’t want to use them, should be able to put them on the negotiating table at any time. Kang Hyunmoo’s Appearance We need to negotiate favorable terms with the Almighty before.”

“What if it’s an advantageous negotiation?”

“For example, a non-aggression pact in exchange for handing over Japan.”

Wang Shin-ryang opened his eyes wide and looked at Lee Seo-yeon.

“Isn’t that just a declaration of surrender!”

Lee Seo-yeon looked at Wang Shin-ryang as if it was ridiculous.

If it’s clear that Kang Hyunmoo has really survived, it’s not over in Japan.

Even if Kang Hyunmoo declares that the South China coalition will be dismantled, Lee Seo-yeon will have to decide whether the declaration will be made within this year or not.

“That’s cheap enough. So, we need to make a deal before Kang Hyunmoo comes.”

“Such a humiliating negotiation…”

“Ha… I thought I would just drop you off the coast of Taiwan and bring someone who listens well. No. A Han River would be enough. Is the comment different? It would be better if you just hold on to a political science graduate student on the street.”

Wang Shin-ryang was at a loss for words at Lee Seo-yeon’s sudden outburst.

In the end, as if realizing that he had no choice but to follow Lee Seo-yeon, he shut his mouth and followed him.

Lee Seo-yeon whispered to herself repeatedly, recalling the face of Yu-min, whom she would soon meet.

‘you can do it. I have an advantage The Almighty Ryeonu has no ability to carry out long-term warfare.’

You can make concessions to Japan. But no more.

It was also a favorable condition for the Almighty. Because you can eat Japan without paying anything.

However, the moment Lee Seo-yeon opened the door and entered, her expectations were shattered.

“Oh, Seo-yeon Lee. You’ve arrived.”

Yu-min greeted Lee Seo-yeon with a gentle smile. And Kang Hyunmoo was standing next to him.

Seo-yeon Lee approached Yu-min with a frozen, brittle look. She was so surprised that she even forgot to say hello.

It was just yesterday that I heard that Kang Hyunmoo had appeared in Romania. He was confident that he was faster than anyone else.

But already?

‘it’s okay. I still have an advantage. Suppose we can make concessions to Japan and Taiwan. Worst case scenario, let’s negotiate even the Philippines. If this is the case, is it too late? Kang Hyunmoo will understand.’

Seo-yeon Lee took a deep breath and captured her heart. However, as she got closer and closer to Kang Hyunmoo, she felt her confidence waning.

Kang Hyunmoo had not changed at all.

Contrary to the rumors that he had been torn apart, his body was all in good health, and on the contrary, an even more bizarre atmosphere was raging.

Seoyeon Lee felt her instincts as a capable person scream. She wanted to turn her back on her and run away at any moment.

‘… … great. It’s a pity, but let’s just give up all of the South China Alliance’s foreign stakes and nuclear weapons. If only the Taeseong Group and the South China Union remain, they are already strong players who can belong to the center of the world. The Almighty will become unreasonably strong, but the economic stake alone can exert influence.’

“Lee Seo-yeon. It’s been a while. If Yu-min said hello, should I accept it?”

Finally, the moment he got close enough to see his eyes, Hyunmoo opened his mouth.

Seo-yeon Lee stopped on the spot.

Wang Shin-ryang thought that Seo-yeon Lee’s expression had given up somehow, and that he had put down a lot.

Then, Seo-yeon Lee opened her mouth.

“The South China Union will surrender to the Almighty Alliance without conditions.”
