357. I went to see Park Chun-bae.
“Were the instructions not received?”
Nam Myeong-jin felt annoyed for the first time in a long time.
The most handsome man and Prometheus.
It wasn’t that I left them alone because I couldn’t catch them.
From the moment they came in, they watched their every move.
I was thinking of leaving it alone as long as it didn’t cause a dizzying accident.
Because they will soon become the hands and feet of Prometheus.
‘Then the next one would have been easy.’
Terrorist groups are always a problem. The World Government Coalition has taken their problem more seriously than the Named.
If you block the named ones, it’ll be over, but these are weeds that keep growing no matter how much you pull them out.
In order to pull out the roots of that weed, you ultimately have to catch the head.
Ram Dust, the leader of Prometheus and a demon created by mankind.
Although his abilities are unknown, it has been determined that he is a single-ability user among the special species with superpowers.
Obtaining this much information took a tremendous amount of time and resources.
So I figured this was my chance to take down that rascal.
That was the thinking of not only Nam Myeong-jin, but also all the vested interests in Korea, including the president.
Therefore, leaving the most handsome man alone was a move aimed at Ram Dust, the leader of Prometheus.
It could be said that the price of letting it run wild was the preparatory stage for obtaining clues leading in that direction.
It was a big project and a special mission.
NS broke it cleanly in the middle, turning it into dust without leaving a trace.
‘Are you stupid? Are you stubborn?’
NS has Lee Dong-hoon and Woo Mi-ho. Nam Myeong-jin also kept an eye on them.
No, there’s no need to go that far.
If I had any insight to understand the situation, I would have left them alone.
If it was double-barreled, I would have dried it.
But why?
Why do you do this?
The secretary pushed my glasses up with the back of her hand.
“They say they’ve said everything they wanted to say.”
It’s the police’s job. Don’t touch Choi Min-nam and his group.
I had decided to tell Gwangik that.
“however?”
“He said that he would do it on his own because he knew that he wouldn’t be able to catch me if I used tricks like that.”
“… … This kid.”
Nam Myeong-jin suppressed the fever that was about to rise.
“If it were that easy, would I have just watched it all this time?”
The secretary said nothing. She just remained silent.
After Nam Myeong-jin blurted out those words, a strange thought occurred to him.
Because everything that Gwangik had done and accomplished so far had shone brighter than anyone before him.
If it had continued to shine, it would have shined, and I don’t think it would have died down like this.
‘Am I getting old?’
I’m old, but I’m old now. However, as one of the few first-generation heroes still on the front lines.
I just believed that there was still work to be done.
Even though it was a small thing, this incident created a small crack in that trust.
I wasn’t feeling very good.
“Let’s have a drink.”
Mr. Nam sat across from his secretary that day and soaked his stomach with dozens of glasses of brown liquid.
It was a bitter day.
During my time in the Immortal Special Forces, there were more things I didn’t know than things I did know.
Rather than a question of personal ability, the first question was whether I could step forward here.
“Isn’t that a bit too much for something like that?”
While we were talking like this, Jeong Gi-nam started to nitpick.
I really did. I had those kinds of worries.
It’s a little different now.
There are more things I can do than things I cannot do.
Even if the person I’m picking a fight with is a member of the Korean special species world, I can now punch that person in the face.
Aren’t you afraid of the aftereffects? I guess it would be right to say that I’ve reached a point where I can handle that.
As I passed through the revolving door and entered, it was bustling with people.
“This is the Korean branch of the Psionics Association. The Association strives for the infinite development and peace of humanity, and works to improve the human rights of supernatural species.”
In the center of the large hall, an artificial intelligence implemented as a hologram was talking.
The building is really f*cking big. It’s probably five times the size of NS headquarters.
The place I was at was the Korean branch of the Psionic Society.
On one side, a signboard for reporting the ability development location was visible.
On the other side, the crime report number was written in large letters.
Crimes committed by supernatural beings are a social problem.
Because people who are born with special abilities are bound to have accidents one day.
It is different from the immortals and shapeshifters.

Just a few years ago, there were so many immortals and transformations who lived while hiding their identities.
now?
It has changed a lot, partly because of my influence.
Once the terrorist group in Korea was destroyed, the group of mad scientists could not run wild.
There weren’t many scientists coming in, and I would beat them up every time they came in.
It was one of NS’s security projects.
They beat up mad scientists and steal all their research data.
Who would want to come here?
Naturally, many people have found relief.
It may still be inconvenient, but at least it’s better than before.
On the other hand, special species with superpowers are treated a little differently.
They are closer to the general public than to special species. Not biologically, but in the way people perceive them.
As a result, I tend to be welcomed rather than rejected.
Of course, excluding the criminal bastards.
I’ve also often heard that some criminal groups smear the faces of supernatural beings.
On the other hand, there are those who think that the superpowered special species themselves are the problem, but they are a minority.
The power, authority, and money that one possesses are overwhelmed by immortality and transformation.
But Psionics had something else.
It’s human nature.
What more, what have they contributed to society? The reader business.
Many people said that thanks to the association, they have entered a period of stability like now.
That’s not wrong.
The association profited from that. They ripped it off a lot.
So it was a give and take.
For humanity? What kind of crazy talk are you talking about.
If the president of the association were that kind of romantic.
I dedicate my left wrist to the romantic.
Since you’re immortal, your wrist will grow back.
That means I’m sure he’s not that kind of person.
Even though I’ve never seen that person, there are things that I know even without seeing them.
For example, the words that person left behind, the things that person did, the results of those things, etc.
So I would say the president is half a son of a bitch.
First of all, I think that the bastard who spread his genes and created a group of illegitimate children would be a bastard with a brain full of dirt.
“… … The 7th floor is where the Association’s superpowered special species reside. If you turn around the left pillar, you’ll find an elevator that goes down to the basement.”
The holographic AI reached out and pointed to one side.
I guess I was just guiding you through each floor.
I walked across the hall, and when I reached my destination, I stopped and took off my hat.
Holograms can’t solve everything.
I heard that if you have any business with a high-ranking member of the association, aside from complaints from people with superpowers or issues like permission, you should come here.
This is my first time approaching it this way.
I made eye contact with a woman who was yawning, perhaps because she was bored.
“……uh?”
And the woman at the information desk recognized me.
“The best?”
“If you shout too loudly, everyone around you will probably come.”
“… … .”
The woman covered her mouth with her hand.
“Ugh, ugh, ugh!”
If you keep your mouth shut, who will guide you?
If you show me your lips, I’ll be able to do lip-reading.
Still, I understood the general meaning. The sensitivity of the immortal allows him to infer what the other person is trying to say just from their gestures and eyes.
Her eyes seemed to say, ‘Why here?’
“Is there a Korean branch manager, that is, the association president?”
The opponent was a woman, and I spoke with a mixture of devilish charm.
The most handsome man the police brought in had captivated men with his smile and a few words.
Can’t I do it too?
“Uh, yeah, maybe?”
The surprised woman stuttered.
I smiled.
“Could you please check?”
A soft smile and a word spoken in a low voice.
Go, fall under the spell of Yoo Kwang-ik.
“Well, I think I should report it first.”
The woman repeatedly said that she had to do it according to the manual.
“Just check.”
He smiled again.
The woman stared at my face for a moment, as if her surprise had subsided, before asking.
“What are you looking for?”
“Just this and that.”
“You know I can’t just let you go. You know I’m not the type of person who can just come and meet you, right?”
“That’s true, though.”
“Please wait. I will report to my superiors.”
Um, um.
This woman was a person with no discerning eye.
… … Should I have brought Kinam?
Well, that wouldn’t have changed anything.
He asked if I could just let him go if he wanted to meet the president of the association.
I was just kidding. Just kidding.
It’s not that I can’t seduce this woman. It’s true.
Soon the woman’s boss arrived.
He was a man with sharp eyebrows. Judging from his gait, he seemed to have trained his body.
He was surprised too. He expressed his surprise by furrowing his eyebrows.
“I would like to meet the Korean branch manager.”
“First, please tell me why you are here.”
The attitude was stiff.
“I’m not here to do something great. I just have a suggestion.”
I also answered back.
There was no need to beat around the bush and twist the story, so I did it that way.
“alone?”
“Why do so many people come here when they are so scared?”
The man soon radioed upwards.
I was guided.
I could see the shoulders of the man walking ahead were stiff.
It’s nerve-wracking.
The place we were guided to was the branch manager’s office.
The heavy sandalwood door had an elaborate pattern carved into it.
It was a door that made me want to kick it open for no reason.
The door opened without a sound, as if it was well oiled.
“Come on in.”
As I listened to the nervous man speak, I saw an old man sitting at a small table.
Are you about fifty years old?
The man who caught my eye opened his mouth.
“It would be nice if immortals didn’t age, but that’s not the case for us. I’m the president of the association, Park Chun-bae.”
The association president said.
Park Chun-bae, the Korean branch manager and the man known as the president of the Korean Psychic Society.
The Psionic Society also treats each chapter as an individual society.
It was like giving them that much power and strength.
Mr. Park Chun-bae was not alone.
Behind him stood two men and one woman.
“I came because I have something to say.”
“You’re in a hurry. Is that because you’re young? Shouldn’t you sit down and have a cup of tea?”
I announced my return with a spectacular cannon blast.
Because they criticized a terrorist group that entered Korea and published an article about it.
Even though it was unexpected that I would come here straight away, Chun-bae was calm.
Chun-bae, Chun-bae, the name really rolls off the tongue.
“You caused a lot of trouble when I was away, didn’t you?”
He said while sitting down
“The way you speak is rough, that’s the privilege of youth.”
You keep bringing up age. Oh, since you’re older, you should be polite as someone who was born and raised in the land of courtesy in the East?
Hey, that’s not it.
I do like the Three Bonds and Five Relationships.
This is not true.
You were arguing so excitedly while I was away, and now you’re asking for manners.
It smells like gangsters.
“Not only the way he speaks, but his fists and actions are also quite rough.”
He raised his spirits by saying this. It is the spirit of the Transformers based on the wild life force.
The air became heavy in an instant.
He just kept his momentum up with a smile on his face.
“Where is this place!”
The woman behind me glared. Her eyes had a gleam like that of a jewel.
It looked like something was going to pop out of those eyes at any moment.
“Are you my girlfriend?”
When I asked her about it, the woman bit her molars. I could see her cheek muscles were tense.
Now shoot. It’ll spit out a laser or something.
“Hyang-ah, stop.”
The president of the association tried to stop her.
And then he looked at me intently and asked.
“I guess you don’t feel like drinking tea.”
“I’m so busy with construction. I took a short vacation and came back, and there were a lot of flies in the office.”
“It’s a fly.”
The association president clicked his tongue.
“There’s no point in coming here all of a sudden and acting like a thug, right?”
As I was saying those words, it seemed like the other side was also coming out to greet me.
Okay, let’s talk comfortably.
So refreshing.
“Get those guys out. That would be good.”
“That can’t be.”
The middle-aged man right behind me speaks. His voice is deep and deep.
I said that with the president in mind.
If you want to be, then be.
I leaned back against the backrest and crossed my legs.
I opened my mouth, feeling very relaxed.
“You asked for a brain princess?”
Before I could even answer, he continued speaking.
“You even stumbled upon the superpower country. You even filed a lawsuit against the reader?”
“So. Are you trying to beat me to death now?”
Hey, no way.
But we are on the same side as the invaders and terrorist groups, so do we really need to kill them?
“I told you to get them out.”
“Can you handle the aftermath?”
“If I didn’t think I could do it, I wouldn’t have come. Whether it’s the Old Force, Excursion, or the Magical League, I came here to show you what happens if you mess with me.”
NS is coming soon. If you touch it, shouldn’t you take responsibility?
“Branch Manager, I’m telling you this for the last time. Let’s get those guys out.”
Or will you be stripped in front of your subordinates?
At my words, Chun-bae’s eyes began to tremble.
