The Crazy Villain Regains His Sanity Chapter 217

Episode 217

“If you gain one, you lose another. “If you try to have everything, problems arise.”

The Berserker guy spoke to me with an uncharacteristically solemn expression, as if something had happened.

About the topic we just sparred with and messed up.

I’ve definitely gotten stronger since I got my intuition. Before that, the bones were broken and crushed, but now we have succeeded in minimizing the damage to only cracks and bruises.

Even though I thought about pushing it a little harder, it was a meaningless exercise of violence.

“What are you talking about?”

“It’s about a dog.”

“Who asked you to talk about the dog?”

“I wanted to say that greed is excessive. “I know you want to have a monster that satisfies all your desires, but it’s not easy.”

“Suddenly you take the side of the dog. “Didn’t you always hate dogs?”

“I’m saying this because I want to dispose of it if I don’t like it because of your personality.”

[You saw it correctly. Very sharp!]

I didn’t like Yongyong’s shout, but Berserker’s words were accurate.

I was even considering disposal if the situation were to arise. Was it really difficult to be absolutely loyal to your master and possess the evil nature of a monster at the same time?

[There are a lot of things I wish for.]

“There are many other things I like, so I should try to fix them.”

“Control your strength appropriately. Because controlling your power will ruin everything.”

It feels like the words have bones.

“Why do you feel bad?”

“Isn’t there an example of that here? It was broken several times and came back alive. “The rest could not survive and were discarded.”

I’m confused because you say it so proudly.

I’m saying this because it’s good, right?

I also need to think about what to do with the dog.

“But I guess I can still exercise lightly.”

“Are you exercising?”

“I have a golf appointment.”

He was grinning and I had a strong feeling that he was trying to trick me.

I guess he caught me because he wanted to get hit today.

“From the moment I decided to become part of mainstream society, I have been making efforts to adapt. Because meeting many people and leaving a good impression on them is helpful to us. I’ve already made a lot of people who will take my side. “We will make more in the future.”

“Is it an effort of your own?”

“That’s why there aren’t any bad articles about me these days.”

I just thought it was because Jin Se-jeong was good at her job.

“She is a capable woman. But all of this has to have a foundation in place.”

“I don’t have anything like that.”

“If you’re not as strong as you, this is normal.”

“….”

“Why are you doing that?”

As I was staring, Berserker made a puzzled expression.

Well, maybe I’m weird, but I wasn’t very happy with this change in Berserker.

It felt like the crazy guy I knew was no longer a crazy guy.

As a Berserker, you always have to make a fuss to catch a glimpse of the stars, but since you have adapted so well to society, it feels like you are no longer a Berserker.

Should I bring him back to his senses(?)?

I missed Berserker’s shocked expression when he went to get the Ten Thousand Poison Immortals in the past.

“…The way you look at me is quite ominous.”

“Don’t you miss it sometimes?”

“What are you talking about?”

“A time when we roamed freely before being bound by society.”

“at all. “The happiest moment for me was when I got rid of the campervan.”

There is a joy that only people who own a camping car can know.

He was looking for a place with good water and good mountain scenery.

When you’re bored, don’t you like beating up villains and killing monsters?

Berserker actually looks like he has no luck.

“You don’t know how painful it is to not know when and where you will come out. “It would be better to get beaten up in a pre-planned sparring.”

[How much must you have suffered to say something like that?]

Yongyong looks at Berserker with pitiful eyes.

I’m not sure.

This makes me feel like a complete villain.

After deciding to put aside thoughts about disposing of the dog for a while, I took the dog for a walk.

It was necessary to make up for what he lacked in ferocity for a monster, but it was also important to learn how to utilize the newly acquired gift.

In order to deal with this divine beast, Thunderbird, I must also become stronger than I am now.

Becoming stronger at my current level means diversifying the methods that can be mobilized. You must be able to use your power freely in any environment and any situation to easily defeat even strong enemies.

puck!

The monster flying in the dark sky was hit by a sniper, staggered, and fell.

The power of sniping was proportional to the condensation of force and the momentum flying toward the target. The more force was poured out, the heavier it became, but the more power it consumed to project it.

It could be fired like a cannon ball or like a small bullet, so I could use it as I wanted as long as I was willing to consume the force.

If possible, I should study the structure of guns and cannons.

“The problem is the hit rate.”

Hunting the flying monster just now was possible after five failures.

I need to train to hit this accurately.

If you experience as much practice as possible, you will naturally improve.

My goal is to punch a hole in the back of the head of a guy who turns to run away during a confrontation.

You can’t overlook the taste of your hand when killing an enemy.

I turned my attention to the doggo.

“Dog.”

bruise!

“Yes, you can do it. Let’s do well.”

bruise!

The doggy guy was definitely quick-witted. It must have sensed that I didn’t like it, so today it went hunting without sparing any effort.

I’m weak to a guy who throws his body like this again. I feel like my upset feelings have eased a little.

As I swept through the North Korean region to walk the dog and use my sniping gift, the monsters on the section between Kaesong and Pyongyang began to dry up.

This brought about significant change.

As I settled into the hunting ground, did I have a perception that the area was safe?

In particular, the section between Kaesong and Pyongyang is where all three major plains in North Korea come together, creating a sense of psychological stability and stabilizing food prices.

Food stabilization means price stabilization.

It is said that these factors influenced the investment sentiment of guilds and companies.

After the hunt, I went to the Blue House and saw a big smile on the President’s face.

“Did something suddenly blow? I like it, but it’s okay. haha.”

“I have something to experiment with.”

“I hope that experiment continues for a long time.”

“I plan to focus on hunting for the time being.”

“It’s good news.”

The president smiled happily and winked at Cheon Myeong-guk. He bowed his head slightly, then turned to me and said.

“You know the result of the Northern army pushing out the Southern army this time.”

“I heard.”

“The civil war will not end soon, but it is true that the Northern Army has taken the lead. And then an official request came in from the Northern Army. “The message is to stop exporting military supplies to the Confederate Army.”

Wei Hao, did this guy take power and then turn around? What is it that tells you to do this and that?

Do people change when they come to power?

“I didn’t answer this, but knowing what the Adept thinks comes first, so I’m withholding my answer.”

“It doesn’t matter what decision the Blue House decides.”

I don’t mind cutting off exports to build friendship with the new government, or maintaining exports until the civil war continues for a long time.

“We just joined hands with Yu Hao because our strategic goals are aligned, and we have no relationship whatsoever.”

“okay.”

Cheon Myeong-guk looked relieved. But it’s a little different from the expression I know?

The President interjected with a smile.

“But Director Cheon did it first.”

“What do you mean by yelling?”

“They criticized him for being high-handed in a place where he had not yet taken over the government. Thanks to this, the North Korean ambassador plenipotentiary was unable to respond properly and apologized in a panic. “It was the price I paid for not understanding my topic properly.”

What is that side of Cheon Myeong-guk? I should have watched this from the sidelines.

“That’s too bad. “I should have been there.”

“….”

The President and Cheon Myeong-guk’s mouths closed at my words.

[Just looking at their faces, they don’t like your presence?]

Why are you doing that? If I had been there, I would have said something harsher.

[I saw somewhere that if there is too much carbonation, it is hydrochloric acid!]

Are you saying I am like hydrochloric acid?

[well? I don’t know.]

Yongyong’s timing of hitting and running away from this guy is a work of art.

“But I didn’t know Director Cheon was that kind of character.”

“I thought that the Republic of Korea was no longer a place to worry about what others thought, so I showed a confident attitude.”

“awesome.”

“thank you.”

“I think the president will do well.”

“….”

Cheon Myeong-guk’s triumphant face changed to an earthy color. The president, seeing that, burst into laughter.

After the Southern Army withdrew from Beijing, the Northern Army did not enter Beijing immediately.

Rather, they sent advance units to conduct a thorough search, prepared over several days, and then entered one after another. Meanwhile, the Southern Army was able to regain its full strength and withdraw to Nanjing.

Yu Hao and Li Zhenhuo entered Beijing together. And he was seated in the president’s office in Zhongnanhai. This was the president’s exclusive space where he wielded omnipotent power in China.

“We’re finally here.”

“It took a long time.”

“It was fast considering the obstacles that were in the way.”

“Once they get everywhere, we have to deal with them.”

“That’s right.”

Yu Hao and Li Zhenhuo felt boundless. Yu Hao, who was addicted to loneliness and lived like a puppet because he was of ethnic minority blood, and Li Zhenhuo, who was pushed from one position to another after being pushed out of the power struggle within the party, each sharpened their swords in different ways. And by joining hands, they succeeded in taking over the capital.

The enemy’s forces are still strong, but they will not be able to push forward in as overwhelming a force as before.

If they overcome this, a huge continent will be in their hands.

“The enemy’s resistance will become stronger. “We will consume more power and our neighbors will move in to depower us.”

The biggest problem currently was the military supplies from Korea and Japan that were flowing into the Southern Army. They were supporting the Northern Army, but they were also supporting the Southern Army, prolonging the civil war.

I don’t know how many of our allies shed blood because of that.

“So you abandoned the fairy tale training system?”

“yes.”

Li Zhenhuo didn’t just sit back and watch. He worked to prevent neighboring countries from interfering in any way. One of them was the fairy tale training system.

This, which was a study to control the awakened people, made it attractive to the powerful people of neighboring countries.

Not only that, but he also caused internal strife by leaking information to the opposition party.

There is a war going on that is not only invisible to the eye, but virtually invisible.

The result is successful. The Japanese Prime Minister was seriously injured, and Hwanwol Nakayama withdrew from the Japanese government. Korea was also able to cause political chaos, with a special investigation being carried out internally.

“There is one more problem.”

“Yes, the party gave up on Beijing too meekly.”

“Do you know why?”

“….”

“You can say the worst case.”

“Having Beijing intact means handing over leadership. “That may seem like an advantageous situation, but on the other hand, it may make us question our ability to take power.”

What if something happens while occupying Beijing and we cannot respond? The Northern forces will be treated as rebels who simply rose up to seize power.

People prefer being competent, even if corrupt, to being honest and incompetent. The public supports a regime that will keep them from starving and make them rich. There was a need to satisfy this.

“And the central government has been conducting research on how to deal with monsters with monsters for a long time.”

Control the awakened people with the fairy tale training system and solitude, and control the monsters to hunt them.

Before being pushed out to the outskirts, Li Zhenhuo was well aware of those studies.

“If you don’t show an impressive display when dealing with monsters, serious problems could arise.”

“If it’s a monster problem, I guess I’ll have to take action.”

“If you show an impressive performance, the momentum will come immediately.”

Yu Hao nodded.

He has been protecting China from monsters on the border for a long time. I know what the party was thinking when it gave up Beijing, but things will never go the way they want.

After the Northern Army occupied Beijing, it focused on recruiting Beijing citizens as supporters by donating supplies on a large scale.

Citizens, who had been conscripted for supplies and could not go out due to the civil war, showed signs of welcoming these measures by the Northern Army on a large scale, showing high approval ratings.

A few days have passed since then.

There were occasional attacks by monsters, but the hunting team led by Yu Hao hunted the monsters perfectly.

This was widely broadcast, and the new government’s approval rating soared endlessly.

“Is this the end?”

Just when I thought there was nothing more than I thought, a huge wave that had never appeared before swept across Beijing.

“A monster has appeared outside the outskirts! Estimated grade 9A!”

9A is a Plus Plus level monster when converted to world standards.

“….”

Yu Hao and Li Zhenhuo’s expressions turned pale.
