#Episode 107
In order to fully secure the future of humanity and the Earth, we need Jin Shihou. It would be foolish to reveal Jin Shihou’s power to the world already.
There will be those who try to force a burden on Jin Shihou, and Jin Shihou’s personality makes it impossible for him to leave such people alone.
Everyone just gets tired.
After letting out a small sigh, I opened the door to the pantry.
Jeong Ha-ni and Mirae Ilbo’s Jang Deok-su, the head of the headquarters, are seen.
I think he was a close friend of Jeong Bin and Jeong Ha Ni’s biological father who died during the Gate incident.
Yoon Young-soo smiled gently and spoke to Jang Deok-soo.
“Chief, I’m sorry, but could you step aside for a moment?”
Chief Jang Deok-su, who was scratching his shiny bald head with not a single strand of hair left, eventually sighed and left the bathroom.
Yoon Young-soo and Jeong Ha-ni were left alone.
Yoon Young-soo asked.
“Are you curious?”
“Yes, I’m very curious. What brings you to such a shabby place?”
“Nothing much. Are you interested in a new job?”
Jeong Ha-ni blinked her eyes. Did she hear wrong?
“… …A job change? Me?”
“Yes, the affiliate that I think is the most vulnerable in the Salvation Group is Salvation Daily. I plan to develop that daily from now on, and since I’ve appointed a team leader, I want to scout a reporter. Of course, I want to keep the position of headquarters director Jang Deok-su, who just left, in place.”
“… … This is so sudden. What did I show you that you’re already the team leader?”
“Then what on earth did other people show to become team leaders?”
“… … .”
“I think that if you take away a sense of mission from your job as a journalist, you’re not a journalist, you’re a gangster. And in my opinion, there are too many gangsters among the journalists in South Korea today. They are the so-called rags. How many journalists in South Korea can deliver accurate information to the world with an unbiased perspective? And how many of them are as capable of action as Jeong Ha-ni?”
“… … .”
“I think of reporter Jeong Ha-ni as the future president of the Salvation Daily.”
“……yes yes?”
“Of course, he is still a candidate, but if the current reporter Jeong Ha-ni is combined with the worldly wisdom of Chief Jang Deok-su, I think he will become a very good CEO. Let’s start anew at Guwon Ilbo.”
Jeong Ha-ni didn’t respond right away to Yoon Young-soo’s suggestion. Jeong Ha-ni changed the subject.
“I had breakfast with my older brother today for the first time in a long time. Jin Shi-hoo was there too.”
“I heard. You had meat from room service.”
“… … But he said something pretty interesting. He said that my older brother was a ghostwriter, and that the events on Titan were true.”
“You heard me right. It’s all true.”
“… … And recently, people have been dying all over the country. This is a world where many people die, but it can’t be a coincidence that all the people in the novel Titan died, right?”
“Yes, it is not a coincidence.”
“Not long ago, in China, there was a fight between werewolves and strange monsters that looked like angels. Jin Song-i was there, as well as Helena Myers, one of the models, and Lazarus, a European tycoon. There were also people who used strange skills to spray blood into the air. Could it be that all of these things are related to Jin Shi-hoo?”
“It’s a bit ambiguous, but it’s not unrelated.”
Jeong Ha-ni’s expression became serious. Yoon Young-soo opened the blinds slightly with his hand, just like Chief Jang Deok-soo had done earlier, looked outside, and continued speaking silently.
“Come to Salvation Day. I will show you the truths you never knew. But.”
“step?”
“It should be made clear that it is more profitable to conceal these truths than to make them known to the world.”
“… … You were talking about a sense of mission earlier, but now you’re telling me to be silent? Are you telling me to become trash?”
“A rag is someone who writes information to fit a biased perspective, and strictly speaking, they are different.”
“Is that so?”
“Yes, that’s right. Of course, I won’t force you. If you want to make the whole world panic, then you can do that. If you can bear the fact that the articles produced by Jeonghani’s hands will lead to the deaths of hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, and maybe even millions of people, then you can do it.”
Yoon Young-soo turned his head as he returned the blinds to their original position.
“It’s not that I or the Master are hiding it because they like it. It’s information that needs to be hidden, so we’re hiding it.”
Yoon Young-soo leaned his back against the door. Since Chief Jang Deok-soo had locked the door when he left earlier, there was no way anyone would suddenly come rushing in.
Yoon Young-soo didn’t say anything wrong.
As I said before, I’m not hiding it because I really want to.
Announcing the existence of the Underworld to the world would do more harm than good.
If Lazarus, Helena, and Yuha want to hide it, then spreading that information arbitrarily is no different from asking for a fight.
It’s a clash between powerful groups. There are far more people who are harmed than those who benefit. It was obvious even without seeing it.
To be frank, the Underworld and the Apostles did not announce their existence to the world and only operated in the shadows.
The world is already confusing because of the gates, so why are you adding more confusion to it?
They weren’t stupid enough to do something crazy. Yoon Young-soo or Jin Song-i.
Yoon Young-soo continues speaking slowly.
“Choose. Either remain just another ordinary reporter, or.”
“or not?”
“As a journalist with a grand ambition to end the world in which Gate has arrived, I will watch it end together.”
The corners of Jeong Ha-ni’s mouth twitched.
It’s such a grand statement. What on earth is Yoon Young-soo’s intention in making such a suggestion to someone so insignificant?
“Chief Secretary, do you like me?”
“… … You have a sense of humor too.”
“If that’s not the case, then why are you suggesting this to me?”
“Because I saw potential and I wanted to see whether my vision was right or wrong and see it through to the end.”
“Is that all?”
“… … I want to find out what fate is, whether it really exists, and if it does, why it is this way.”
Jeong Ha-ni was lost in thought for a moment after hearing Yoon Young-soo’s words.
Honestly, it’s not a bad offer. Who would be so stupid as to reject something that they’re offering to push it?

Jeong Ha-ni said with a smile.
“Can I think about it for just one day?”
“Of course.”
Yoon Young-soo took out a business card from his pocket, handed it to Jeong Ha-ni, and left Mirae Ilbo.
I checked while giving him the business card.
Jeong Ha-ni will come to salvation soon.
Chief Jang Deok-su had already said he would come a long time ago.
Yoon Young-soo immediately turned on his watch and reported to Jin Song-i.
[Jungbin’s younger sister Jung Ha-ni asked for a day to think about it, and it seems like Chief Jang Deok-su will be taking on the position of Chief of Guwon Ilbo starting tomorrow.]
The reply came immediately.
[Thank you for your hard work.]

I looked at my sister for a moment as she hung up the phone.
“Why are you looking at me like that?”
“just.”
He asked while picking up a piece of pork cutlet with chopsticks and eating it.
“What do you think about Phase 2?”
“No. They even tortured the apostles, but they didn’t know anything. It’s as if their memories were erased.”
“That’s a bit ambiguous.”
“I think those who are the highest level apostles would know, but as you know, I killed them all.”
That wasn’t a wrong statement.
The sun god Ra died, Asura died, and Yaksha died.
Now, all that remains are six apostles who have completely disappeared from the world.
It is certain that the apostles are now waiting for Phase 2.
“You have to prepare. Tomorrow is the start. You too, don’t go anywhere and stay close to here.”
“I wonder?”
“Yeah. The pork cutlet here is more delicious than that.”
He smiled and put some of the pork cutlets that were on my plate on my sister’s plate.
“You’re not going to eat?”
“I think my sister eats more like a pig than I do.”
“… … .”
“what?”
My sister laughs.
“When the 200th apostle was pretending to be you, this rarely happened.”
“okay?”
“I feel good because I eat out with you often these days.”
I laughed quietly. It’s the same.
Then my older sister asked.
“What are you worried about these days?”
“You’re a ghost. How did you know?”
“Your expression looks a little complicated. Like you’re worried about something. But I guess you’re right. What are you so worried about?”
He said, drinking a glass of water from the bottle next to him.
“Yuha met ‘that guy’.”
For a moment, my sister’s eyebrows twitched. It seemed as if she was thinking about who the ‘that guy’ I was talking about was.
And that didn’t last long. My sister understood. She told me why I was doing this.
“But now he says he doesn’t know that he is him.”
“… … What does that mean?”
I looked at my sister for a moment and then sent her a magic message. Very secretly.
-He sealed his power. He had to fool the eyes of the system or something, so among the people on Earth right now, someone is a sage of the Six Paths.
My older sister seemed to think for a moment and frowned.
-Surely you’ll be around me again this time?
-You don’t think so?
-Yeah, I don’t think so. It’s only once or twice that it gets dark under the lamp. If it keeps getting dark like this, it’s strange. It’s insincere.
-Is that so?
-huh.
-But, that was simply ‘my sister’s surroundings’. What if it wasn’t my sister’s surroundings, but ‘our surroundings’?
-But that’s not it.
-Why do you think so?
-… … Because I want to believe that.
I looked at my sister’s complicated expression and said nothing more.
It may or may not be around us.
My intuition didn’t pinpoint anything or anything.
He said it with an indifferent expression.
“This place is really delicious. Let’s come again next time.”
My older sister also answered with a smile.
“Yeah. Let’s come together.”

Jin Shihou was not a fool, and Jin Songyi was not a fool either.
The reason why the information about the Six Paths Immortal was hidden is because it was not easy for Jin Shihou to obtain that information.
It is not clear whether the system itself is an enemy or an ally, and nothing is known about the ‘Ascendants’ behind the system.
There is no need to disclose the information of the Six Paths Immortal.
Jin Shihou and Jin Songyi clearly did the right thing.
[I wonder what the wanderer on the stars was talking about.]
[The goldsmith wonders who ‘he’ refers to.]
[The noisy assassin asks if this is the story about the ‘Six Paths Immortal’ he heard before.]
This is clearly the right thing to do, because as proof, I started seeing messages like this.
Before Phase 2 began, the messages that had been surfacing since the break were clear evidence that there were those watching the Awakened behind this system.
