The Crazy Villain Regains His Sanity

Chapter 269

was being said, I succeeded in persuading Yongyong by saying that I would pull his toenails without pain.

At first he said it was nothing, but soon he showed a cold side.

To become a divine beast and be sensitive to pain.

[It’s because I had to endure this pain to pay for my friend.]

“Are you saying you don’t want to endure it for your friend?”

[It’s not necessarily true, but I wonder if it’s necessary to do something like this…]

“I have to do it. “This is what friends are like.”

[I heard you didn’t have any friends.]

“So you did?”

[I have Hyuna!]

“Does she think that too?”

[….]

Yongyong closed his mouth at my firm words. Well, I think I unintentionally hurt you.

In fact, Yongyong’s claws have a very important value in this matter. Should I say that it is for my dream of oil?

[Okay, I’ll do it.]

Yongyong eventually agrees to what I say. It wasn’t an easy process to get to this point. But since I got permission, I have to put it into action right away.

“Where should I do it?”

[…Go to my nest.]

Yongyong took me to his nest. And from there, it materialized as its main body and stuck out its foot.

You never throw away a given opportunity. I Yongyong started pulling out his claws.

[urg! Eck! Jade!]

That’s a really cute scream considering its size.

After I pulled it all out, I screamed out in pain.

[But you can cut it off!]

“Then you have to find a way to activate it again.”

[So you chose it knowing that it would work?]

“Isn’t this convenient?”

[….]

Yongyong was speechless.

* * *

Having secured twenty of them, the next task I set out to do was to help the dog learn how to activate the energy of Yongyong’s claws.

Yongyong is a divine beast. The wavelength contained in the claws also belongs to the divine beast, and if we use a method to make this huge presence appear, it will make the monsters think that the divine beast is passing over the sea.

After trying it myself, it wasn’t as difficult as I thought. All we have to do is reproduce the existence of Yongyong’s unique wavelength. The wavelength exists in its claws, so if you activate it, the energy will remain for a long time.

“You just have to do well.”

bruise!

The dog showed his determination, saying he could do well. This is a case where a monster uses the force, so I’ll have to give it a try and see how well it does.

“Activate it.”

bruise!

The dog stuck out its paw in front of the claws of the dragon displayed in front. The moment the two touched each other, resonance occurred and waves began to activate along with light.

[Isn’t this it?]

Pass.

Just as Yongyong said, the wave soon disappeared without a trace. I watched quietly and raised my eyebrows.

“Why?”

[You assert your own attributes too strongly. That’s interfering with activating my natural energy.]

In short, the dog can’t suppress its energy properly.

You could say that it has a strong unique color.

“Why can’t I do this?”

[It’s because of the monster’s unique presence.]

The dog’s presence is not as strong, but it is said that it will not be an easy task for both the monster and the divine beast.

Humans are fainter than that and can guess, but it won’t be easy for monsters.

Yongyong speaks carelessly.

impossible? That’s just a statement made for self-justification.

“It’s not easy. “If you just do it, everything will work out.”

[What are you going to do?]

“If you don’t want to get hit, you’ll do your best.”

[What if that doesn’t work?]

“I’ll do my best even if I don’t want to die.”

I came up with a very simple and effective solution.

* * *

There were countless trials and errors, but it was true that you can do it if you do it.

Because in the end, the dog did it.

Of course, there were difficult processes that were omitted in the middle, but if the results are good, that’s okay.

[Wow, I didn’t think it would be easy.]

“Violence makes many impossible things possible.”

[I really didn’t know this would happen.]

“Unlike divine beasts, monsters are ones that adapt to their environment. “We need to make them feel a sense of crisis that if they are stubborn and don’t change, they could die.”

The result is this. The dog transformed to avoid getting hit again and finally succeeded in matching the wavelength.

“It may take some time, but you will get used to it with repeated work.”

If you’re just a dog, you won’t get hit anywhere, so you’ll do just fine.

He did his job even when he was far away, so now I should give him a mission in the form of a dispatch.

I returned to the past and realized that many changes had occurred in me, who used to live a simple life.

I went from thinking that it was just me to starting the process of creating a proper illusion in people to package myself and increase public favorability. And, thinking that this goodwill would not last forever, I secured influence so that society could not cast me out.

I was me before and I am also me now.

It’s just that I don’t have a hematoma.

“I’ll feel more comfortable now.”

Having succeeded in remodeling the dog, I said I could immediately make plans to leave for Saudi Arabia. This is because it was put on hold indefinitely in a situation where it was not known whether it would take a day or a month to correct it.

Hearing my story, Kim Yoon-ki immediately began to coordinate his schedule and the President was overjoyed. I guess I thought it ended faster than expected.

“You mean you succeeded this early?”

“I was lucky.”

“Huh, I thought it would take some time though. As expected, if I trust you, everything will work out easily.”

I transformed quickly to avoid being hit again by the dog, so I answered with a shrug.

Now that I’ve done the urgent work, I plan to move on to the next matter.

“Starting tomorrow, we are going to hunt down villains disguised as legitimate.”

“I’m sure there’s quite a bit to do. Do you mind?”

“No matter what happens, there are cockroaches hiding in the house, so we have to find them and eradicate them.”

“yes. It’s a cockroach. “A cockroach that is a pest but hides by pretending not to be.”

“There is just one catch.”

Although this was what he said, it was not a particularly difficult part, and there remained a reason why the President could not remain calm like this.

“Why but?”

“We will also reach out to the politicians involved. Are you okay?”

Of course, there are politicians in local areas, and more than half of them belong to the ruling party.

“It doesn’t matter to me.”

“Is that so?”

This was a different answer than expected. Still, I thought I would be told to turn around and kill him or not to kill him.

The President grinned.

“Anyway, there is a gap between the approval ratings of the ruling party and the government. “It would be better to use this opportunity to overturn the rotten local politics.”

“….”

“But why?”

“Because it was unexpected.”

“You would have done it anyway even if I didn’t tell you. “Don’t just look at the situation, but take action.”

Well, I didn’t mean to say it this far, but it seems like the president’s tendencies have become very violent.

Is it because of Cheon Myung-guk?

[You say that?]

I was just saying what I felt.

* * *

The reason I am trying to eliminate villains is for one big purpose.

This is for a full-scale battle with the Thunderbird.

Following Draculea, the Demon Armor, I faced the guy called the Nightmare of the Desert in turn. Two of them are two-horned monsters who exert tremendous force that makes them feel as if they will destroy the world.

There was a crisis when dealing with the Heavenly Demon Armor, but catching Draculea was easy.

In the process, I was able to improve by replenishing gifts and increasing practical experience.

However, it was disappointing that I lost my full recovery when dealing with the Heavenly Demon Armor.

So, I had some expectations for Berserker.

“Why aren’t there any gifts like this?”

There was no gift creation as I expected.

He seems like a useless guy.

“…Is that all you want to say by suddenly barging in and grabbing your heart?”

“We’re just trying to be nice to each other. “Wouldn’t it be nice if you got more gifts too?”

“If the gifts increase here, my body will explode.”

“I guess not? “Because your body is pretty strong.”

“The bigger problem is that it doesn’t sound like a compliment.”

To walk a crooked line.

Rather, I decided to ask Berserker a few questions before leaving for the countryside.

If you think about it, didn’t this villain travel around the country?

“There are a lot. “They are disguising themselves as normal.”

“Tell me more about the story.”

“You can basically see it as colluding with local political power.”

It is said that due to the threat of monsters, one cannot engage in politics without joining hands with such guys.

Berserker cited the concentration of existing Awakened forces in the metropolitan area and lax surveillance as the cause.

“Humans are inherently evil. So the current development is natural.”

“Is there any way to completely remove it?”

“does not exist. “It will continue to sprout.”

Actually, I didn’t ask with much expectations. Humans are evil anyway, and if there is no supervision, corruption is a natural trend.

[Isn’t that too naive?]

It’s not naive. So, I think I need to uproot it.

“Thank you for talking. “Please work harder and create some new gifts.”

“…Sounds like it makes me want to escape again.”

Otherwise, you grumble.

After catching a glimpse of Berserker, I immediately started traveling around the countryside to subdue the villain.

The way I found the villain was simple. How much have you contributed to the region?

Just because you engage in corporate activities does not mean your past will be washed away. Why should we consider it pretty when people make money to eat well and live well?

Rather, we should carefully check whether it is being used as criminal funds.

Next is to look at local entertainment facilities. If you are working in an industry that is good for tax evasion related to gambling, there is a high chance that you are a villain.

Lastly, we look at the disappearance rate. Suspicion was avoided by framing this as having become a refugee and left the city, but seeing as they were disposed of with drums, they must have used a variety of methods.

[You just let this happen? Isn’t there such a thing as public authority?]

Yongyong’s point was valid, but he also did not know exactly about human characteristics.

Did you listen to what Berserker said?

[I didn’t know it was real.]

That’s what all places where people live are like.

The local public authorities that were supposed to keep them in check had a lot in common. They side together, share profits, and are bound together as a community with the same destiny.

I may have lived and lived well with it until now and thought it was legal, but in my eyes, I was nothing more than a villain and a villain sympathizer.

Even the governor of the ruling party who is rolling his eyes in front of me right now.

“Now wait a minute! It was the employee below me who made a mistake, not me. I definitely received political donations legally…”

Puck!

Without even hearing anything more, I smashed his head. The excuses are flowing out like a stream of excuses for those who took the lead in covering up their crimes.

I heard you talking confidently and talking nonsense, and it felt like my ears were rotting away.

[If this continues, there will be no one left, right?]

“There’s nothing we can do.”

[Actually, there were no humans left to save.]

“In fact, almost everyone is eating them.”

[That’s right.]

Yongyong agreed with what I said. While I visited six cities, counties and districts, only one was safe. Even then, the county governor was a scarecrow and the working-level officials below him were filled with villains, so in effect, it was as if the villains had advanced into public power.

The number of people killed in that way exceeded five hundred.

As expected, the world was small and there were many people to kill. If we hadn’t dealt with these guys who were growing like poisonous mushrooms all over the province, they might have continued to merge and gather among themselves and then grow in power like Yoo Joong-ho, who was a League spy, and run for president.

Looking at the process of these guys growing their power in the provinces, it could never be seen as a lie.

So, when you see it, deal with it as much as possible.

[Isn’t this how we all end up hiding?]

It doesn’t matter if you hide. Just force it out and deal with it. Our country is not large enough for all the cockroaches to hide anyway. If you grab one and use brainwashing, they will come out one after another.

That’s also a new fun point.

[You’re really crazy.]

Yongyong says that, but I’m completely normal.

Isn’t it normal to punish evil?

If I were crazy, I would be killing normal people by now.

[Because it looks like a crazy person killing a bad person?]

That is just a one-sided argument from Shinsu, who has not yet developed social skills.

Probably a hundred people would see me as normal, right?

[Wow, I’m mistaken.]

That’s it. After finishing work in one place, I moved straight away.

“let’s go.”

There were still a lot of guys left to deal with.

* * *

The division founded by Choi Jun-ho was turning the Republic of Korea upside down.

Choi Jun-ho, who had been quiet since a villain organization disguised as a prosperous construction company was caught trying to get involved in oil sales, was rounding up all the villains who were in collusion with local political power.

The problem here was that Choi Jun-ho was dealing with not only villains but also politicians at once.

No matter what, they even touch politicians.

The political world, which felt a sense of crisis here, was shaking with fear toward Choi Jun-ho.

His existence was already like an untouchable sanctuary, so I just clutched my insides and groaned.

Meanwhile, Cheon Myeong-guk received an unexpected invitation.

Across from him, a symbolic second-in-command in politics and a strong candidate for the next ruling party’s presidential election, stood smiling.

It was Seoul Mayor Han Jeong-mun.

“Nice to meet you, Director Cheon Myeong-guk.”

“Nice to meet you, Mayor.”

A somewhat awkward greeting. And an awkward atmosphere.

In it, Cheon Myeong-guk opened his mouth to break the silence that had fallen.

“I heard you were looking for me, Mayor.”

“I wanted to talk openly and honestly with the manager.”

“You mean with me?”

“That’s right. “Please sit down first.”

The two sat facing each other. On the table right in front of them was a cup of warm, steaming coffee.

Han Jeong-moon, a seasoned politician, did not easily start talking when he raised a topic.

Do you think that if you open your mouth first, you will lose?

This is why politicians are.

Cheon Myeong-guk clicked his tongue and asked first.

“What business did you come looking for me for?”

“I was going to tell you anyway.”

Han Jeong-moon, who was leisurely holding his coffee cup, took a sip, looked at Cheon Myeong-guk and said.

“It seems like the director wants to get straight to the point, so I’ll ask.”

As Cheon Myung-guk responded with a look, Han Jeong-moon asked.

“Director Cheon, are you greedy for the presidency?”
