The Crazy Villain Regains His Sanity Chapter 316

Episode 316

The date for the presidential inauguration ceremony has been decided. And I was invited as a guest of honor at the inauguration ceremony.

People around me say it was an obvious decision, but it wasn’t my position to accept it.

Since I am an invitation to the inauguration ceremony, not everyone can come. It was a place I couldn’t even dream of when I had a hematoma.

After all, I helped create a new president and was invited to the inauguration ceremony. I thought it had grown a lot.

Of course, it’s a bit disappointing that I couldn’t give a speech in support.

“This is truly the safest location in the world.”

It was nice to see how much I had changed.

However, my original plan to go alone turned out to be a little different. Cheon Myeong-guk didn’t just invite me, he invited our entire family.

Now that I think about it, I don’t think I’ve ever moved around with my family at an official event.

So, I feel like I should move with my family during this event.

Jin Se-jeong, who saw me trying to attend in comfortable clothes, openly got angry.

“Wearing comfortable clothes in a place where the bright spotlight is focused on! Only from superhumans! By Superhuman! Let’s go for fashion for superhumans! Annoying, right? Do not worry! I knew you would, so I prepared it for you! All you have to do is wear it and go!”

It was literally the lion’s hooves. I ended up accepting Jin Se-jeong’s words and attending the inauguration ceremony wearing my custom-made luxury suit in the name of having to dress politely at official events.

The effect was…unfortunately evident.

Personally, I don’t know much about the suit fit or anything, but looking at the reactions of those around me, I guess it’s good. Did Jin Se-jeong say that this suit fit has been trained in practice and that no one else can imitate?

Just looking at it, it was just lip service. There are a lot of awakened people other than me, so they all have good suit fits.

When I arrived at the inauguration ceremony site, the first thing I noticed was the tight security net. Because there were so many people invited, the border could not be perfect, so it was designed so that time could be delayed with a human curtain when necessary.

If it were me, I think I would have tackled it head on, but I think it will take time to get to where the president is.

Well, the moment you gain high-speed flight, that border network becomes meaningless.

[Why are you always focused on killing someone?]

Because it’s easier to kill than to protect. Of course, since I came with my family today, I am also in a position to protect myself. Anyone who crosses the border should be subdued by breaking their neck.

[I think the word ‘killing’ is better suited than subduing…]

“Choi Jun-ho is a superhuman!”

When I turned my head, Lee Chan-taek of the Avant Garde Guild was approaching.

That was the start. Gwang-ho Ryu of the Reaper Guild also came and said hello, Sang-min Han of the Foreign Cooperation Management Bureau and Kuk-cheol Noh, team leader of the National Protection Bureau, also exchanged greetings with figures from the business world, including Shinsung Group.

They are all considered the worst people in Korea. I’m not impressed, but I guess the people around me aren’t either.

In particular, my family’s perspective on me changed.

[Are the looks in their eyes changing?]

My father was already acquainted with powerful people and greeted them, and my mother seemed excited to mingle with people who could be considered upper class.

No, even on TV, there are stories every day about how popular I am, but you haven’t felt it.

As if she had sensed my thoughts, Yunhee intervened.

“I realized how great my troublemaker son was.”

“Am I a troublemaker?”

“Then I thought you weren’t a troublemaker? “This is amazing.”

Make an exaggeratedly surprised expression.

This was done 100% with the attention of those around me in mind.

Regardless, Yunhee’s brave actions continued.

[Speak well! [Human brother!]

“My brother doesn’t seem to know much, but people around him are treating him as more of a troublemaker than you can imagine. “There are probably a lot of people who get tired of just looking at your face.”

[That’s right, you speak well. I feel refreshed.]

Things that didn’t even communicate with each other were hitting me hard and pushing me to have fun.

I guess I’ll have to set up a separate place sometime soon and fight them off individually.

After exchanging greetings, the actual inauguration ceremony began.

The first thing that caught my eye was the appearance of President Jeon Han-cheol, now a former president.

He had a smile on his face as he succeeded in extending his administration and accomplished countless achievements during his tenure.

They say that when you become president, you usually get older, but compared to five years ago, the passage of time certainly seemed to go by.

It must be nice because I don’t have to worry about it anymore.

And Chun Myeong-guk, who will become president from today, appeared.

When I saw Cheon Myeong-guk, who went from being the head of the Blue House to becoming president, I thought it was strange that it was a human job.

In the past, when I became a hematoma and went crazy, he was an outstanding awakener and strategist, but now he has become the president of a country. I think I am probably the person whose fate changed most dramatically after I came back to my senses.

Now that he is president, he seems like a different person. I guess it’s the place that makes the person.

“I don’t know what people do.”

The same goes for me right now.

That must be the fun of life.

Before the official inauguration speech, Cheon Myeong-guk turned his head and made eye contact with me. Many emotions were swirling in his eyes, and I cheered him on, thinking he could do well. He nodded slightly and opened his mouth.

The content was full of dreams and hopes.

It was full of good stories, as it was an opportunity to give hope to the voters who elected him and the people.

It sounded obvious to my ears, but seeing as other people were impressed by it, it must have been a good story.

“And finally, there is a treasure that our Republic of Korea cannot exchange for anything else.”

After saying that and closing his mouth for a moment, Cheon Myeong-guk turns his head slightly and looks at me.

Could it be that the treasure is me?

[I think that’s right?]

“I will do my best to create a better Republic of Korea than yesterday through strong cooperation with Choi Jun-ho here.”

Remarks from the president’s mouth on the first day of the presidential inauguration ceremony.

What it meant was simple.

It meant that there were that many voters who chose Cheon Myeong-guk because of my presence.

At first, there were many people who thought I was a villain, but that was just based on my appearance. As people had time to understand that my character was like that and a fan base was formed by Jin Se-jeong, the story changed drastically.

What is decisive here is the actual benefit delivered to the people due to my presence.

No matter the method of catching them, my ruthless sweep reduced the number of villains, causing the crime rate to plummet and almost wiping out the monsters, making them noticeably safer from the threat of monsters.

A representative example was that he was no longer afraid even when a level 8 harmful monster appeared.

Sehee Lee told me. The people have given me a great deal of latitude. If I put my mind to it, I will tolerate whatever I do.

These practical benefits for the people helped me overlook the minor inconveniences and supported Cheon Myung-guk, with whom I had a close relationship.

Cheon Myeong-guk mentioned me at the inauguration ceremony to repay the voters’ sentiments.

Looking at it this way, I think Cheon Myeong-guk has also become a politician.

With that, the inauguration ceremony came to an end.

Yongyong looked satisfied.

[Anyway, I liked it because it was new. There are quite a few things to see at human events as well.]

“It’s good.”

[How was it for you?]

“Me? not really.”

Clearly, coming to the inauguration ceremony was an achievement for me as a superhuman belonging to the Republic of Korea, not as a villain.

I am no longer a villain, and it is a meaningful time for me to confirm what I have built up as a superhuman.

That’s it.

[Why do you think so?]

“You know, watching from the side, that the process of building things up like this is not easy.”

[It didn’t seem difficult, but I saw it took a long time.]

“It took several years. So how long will it take to destroy all of this?”

[Uh um. It must be instantaneous, right?]

“That’s why it’s not that good.”

It takes a long time to build up good things, but erasing everything takes an instant.

There were a lot of things I didn’t like about me, who had come to my senses and was living a peaceful life.

[Why are you worried?]

“I don’t like the fact that it could break at any time if some crazy person other than me shows up.”

[….]

“Because the world is large and there are many crazy people.”

[No matter what, it’s only you who can do it.]

“I don’t know that either.”

[There is no one worse than you.]

I simply ignored Yongyong’s grumbling words.

The inauguration ceremony ended successfully, leaving many favorable reviews.

When former President Jeon Han-cheol took office, the ceremony had to be held on a scaled-down scale due to concerns about survival due to an invasion by monsters, but this inauguration ceremony served as an opportunity to inform the world of the situation in Korea, which has improved to the point where it can be decorated with extravagance.

In addition, people from all over the world were surprised to see the stable situation in Korea, which greatly stimulated the spirit of gukbong.

The new president’s schedule is busy.

In particular, since South Korea had reached the level of being ranked among the top five in the world on its own, there were many people who wanted to see a new president of a powerful country.

In order, starting with the United States, followed by Japan.

Compared to the situation until then, when China’s importance was rising, it was an unprecedented change. A divided China proved not to be a major threat, meaning it was pushed down the list of priorities.

Even though such intentions were clearly conveyed, Chinese figures could not even express their dissatisfaction.

Rather, he politely asked Cheon Myeong-guk for help.

“We need your strength for peace. “Please.”

“I know how you feel. “We will do what we can.”

“thank you.”

Li Zhenhuo, who could be said to be the de facto second-in-command of the Northern Army, came and asked for mediation.

It was an action that could hardly be seen as behavior from the Chinese side, which is famous for its stiff neck.

[How can I stretch myself when you are here? Then your neck will spin.]

There are surprisingly many people with that kind of spirit, Yongyong, haven’t you seen quite a few of them?

[Yes, I saw it. They all died for you.]

There is a difference between being spirited and being a killer. Isn’t that what happens in the world?

[If that all happened, there would be no one left alive.]

Let’s say that’s the case.

I was also invited to this event.

The common thought was that the country needed deterrence for the truce between the Northern and Southern armies.

Actually, I, the person involved, didn’t think much of it.

“Is there anything else you want from the Northern Army?”

“doesn’t exist.”

“You mean…”

The Northern Army was a new regime and suffered great damage when the Heavenly Demon Armor appeared. Moreover, the internal situation is not good. There probably won’t be any time to look at your surroundings for the time being.

However, the southern army is different.

“I have something to talk about when I talk to the Confederate army.”

“….”

“Why are you doing that?”

There was deep anxiety in Cheon Myeong-guk’s eyes as he looked at me.

“Even though I became president, my heart is the same as it was then. “If you are going to surprise me, I would appreciate it if you could let me know first.”

“It’s not that surprising. “Let’s talk about it when guests arrive.”

In my opinion, it wasn’t that big of a deal, so I didn’t think there was a need to talk about it twice.

Cheon Myeong-guk looked like he wanted to ask more, but soon gave up and called in someone from the Confederate army.

“Nice to meet you.”

Recently, newly inaugurated Prime Minister Li Junming politely greeted me. He is one of the representative pro-Korean factions and was interpreted as having expressed his intention to become closer to us by becoming prime minister before this visit.

I’m not interested in such complicated political investigations. All I have to do is get what I want to get.

I don’t know if the other person will give it to me or not.

Meanwhile, Cheon Myeong-guk and Li Junming exchanged warm greetings.

What the Confederate army also brought up was, of course, the content about the truce. He said that he would like to strengthen relations with us while we are surrounded by enemies on all sides, and that he would like to increase exchanges.

This is not something that Cheon Myung-guk would refuse. As reconstruction projects are needed due to the ongoing war, it is, to put it bluntly, a bonanza for our closest neighboring country.

“That’s what we hope too. i look forward to.”

“We seem to have similar interests.”

“What’s left is…”

As Cheon Myeong-guk glances at me, Li Junming also looks at me.

It’s my turn to step forward.

“If the Confederate army listens to just one thing, we will cooperate.”

“Please tell me.”

I said it bluntly.

“The Heavenly Demon Armor production facility. I want that.”

“….”

A heavy silence fell in the hall.

Cheon Myeong-guk closed his eyes tightly.
