#Episode 124
The problem is that people are swayed by their demands. It’s not just one or two people who are swayed. It’s millions, tens of millions.
So the World Awakened Ones Association had called together the Seven Gangs, but their schedule was disrupted when they were invited to the Palace of Light.
The original gathering date was June 3rd, but now the Chilgangs have gathered in Switzerland on June 4th.
I had no choice but to put aside everything I was doing and come.
They are not stupid either.
War with zombies? That’s important, but before that, we needed to understand the situation and establish a clear position.
Because we’re not doing that now, protests are happening all over the world.
Should I fight or should I just stop like this?
There are countries where the situation has become so dire that it has reached the level of civil war.
Before we can even fight the zombies, humans will start fighting each other and end up destroying themselves.
That’s why we gathered.
Jin Songi of Korea.
Jamie Wilson from the United States.
Isabella Kane of England.
Nicola Benzano from Italy.
Recently, the number of unique awakeners has increased to a whopping 7, but unfortunately, they are all rookies.
Killing zombies did level up my level, but the time was still too short.
Among those 7, the highest level right now is level 60.
I wasn’t worthy of this position.
Jinsong looked around.
There are only four people.
Of the seven original Awakened beings who used the name Chilgang, three have died, leaving only four left.
What should I say?
It is clearly the Chilgang River that has become the center of the world.
Volkanov, whose personality was a mess but whose ability was never doubted; Hashimoto Kaoru, who had a finite personality but was certain when he did something; and Lee Kang, who was overly reserved and had no one he could get close to, but who nonetheless proved his ability while carrying the expectations of the huge country of China on his back.
I felt the same way in the Palace of Light, but honestly, Chilgang without those three felt a little lonely.
It was hard to say, even though Jinsong was the only one who knew that two of those three were apostles and the other was a guy who cleaned up after the apostles.
“It’s so quiet.”
Jin Song-i turned her head at Jamie Wilson’s words, who had been sitting quietly.
“What are you looking at?”
It was nothing special.
“That’s unexpected.”
“So what.”
“I didn’t know I would be here.”
Jamie snorted and turned his head away without answering.
Jinsongi was special from the start.
Jin Song-i sacrifices herself by risking her ‘everything’.
The other unique awakened ones have different strengths, but they still risk their ‘lives’.
Jamie is the same.
Just risking one’s life to create a peaceful world.
That’s Jamie’s goal. That’s why he had to be here.
Today, in this place, we need to integrate all the opinions of the unique awakened people and make those opinions known to the world so that people can respond.
That’s not happening right now, so there’s chaos everywhere. Jamie didn’t want that situation. No matter how much of a thug he is, it’s not like that’s not happening.
A minute passed like that.
The door opens.
And at the sight of a woman appearing there, the three Awakened Ones, excluding Jinsong, blinked.
Helena was wearing her signature black dress. Jamie stared at her as if he was entranced as her long legs stretched out.
Helena went and sat down at the head of the table, as if it were her own.
This is the seat that Santiago Munez, the former president of the association, should be sitting in. Why is that woman sitting there?
She said.
“Nice to meet you. Is this our first meeting except for one?”
Jin Song-i, who was one of the people speaking here, nodded. Jamie frowned. What on earth is this situation?
“Who are you?”
“Me? The one who became the new president of the Awakened Association yesterday.”
Then he gestured to the table with his chin.
Everyone was surprised this time too. Honestly, even Jinsong was surprised.
On the table was a business card that hadn’t been there a moment ago, and it read:
President of the World Awakening Association.
Helena Royal Myers.
Jamie reached out and picked up the business card. Slowly, he looked up. He saw Helena smiling. He asked, crumpling the business card in his fist.
“What about Santiago?”
Helena tapped the table with her fingers.
“I was wondering how much I should explain, but I thought it would be okay for you guys to tell everything. So I’ll tell you. Maybe you guys… … .”
“But when did you meet me and why are you speaking informally to me?”
Jamie interrupted and came in, but Helena responded with such lightness.
“If you keep nagging me, you can say something too.”
“… … You have no manners.”

“Surely not. Jamie Wilson, born in 2000, currently 32 years old, born in Miami, suspended twice from middle school, dropped out of Callington High School in the US, and then got into alcohol and drugs… … I don’t know about other people, but the word ‘cultured’ is not a word that comes out of the mouth of a punk like you. Why? Should I say more?”
Jamie stood up. Helena smiled faintly as she looked at his fierce face.
It’s easier to organize the sequence in advance.
The mood is getting quieter.
The rest of the Unique Awakened were also aware of this. They could clearly see that the new Association President and Jamie Wilson would clash, but they did not bother to stop them.
As I said before, it is necessary to organize the hierarchy.
Helena didn’t speak for long. Jamie didn’t speak for long either.
Immediately, Helena jumped out of her seat. Her body disappeared from the spot like smoke.
Everyone present missed Helena’s movements.
Kwak.
There was that sound, and then.
Kwang.
There was another sound.
Before he knew it, Jamie was holding onto Helena’s right arm, who was pressed against the wall and holding his collar with both hands.
This whole process takes literally 0.2 seconds.
It happened in there.
“Is this all?”
At Helena’s words, Jamie’s eyebrows furrowed. He didn’t hesitate. He used the declaration of his unique skill area in his head.
In an instant, a 10 meter radius around Jamie becomes his.
The effects were immediate.
Helena has a strange smile on her lips.
“You cleared the air? You killed the wind, and oh… … What is this? My body feels heavy too. Is it gravity?”
I had nothing to say.
As Helena said, he removed the air. He removed the wind. He removed everything that could be removed. Jamie even released a fire attribute energy into the surroundings. This is not a joke. It is so high that even basalt or granite can melt on the spot. But why is it like that…?
“This is my first time seeing it in person, but it’s amazing. Your unique ability is definitely the best. It’s amazing.”
Beyond being normal, it was just relaxed. Helena’s hand, which had been holding Jamie’s collar, went straight to his neck.
“I’ll give you 5 seconds. If you don’t release it within 5 seconds, I’ll kill you on the spot.”
I didn’t hesitate.
“5.”
Helena’s eyes stare into Jamie’s.
“4.”
Jamie felt that Helena was sincere.
“3.”
I couldn’t believe it. How is she so fine? What on earth is this bitch’s true identity?
What the hell is that, that goblin cub I saw yesterday has powers similar to that of the dog named Goeuroon?
“2.”
She had already raised her unique abilities to the limit. But it still had no effect. No, it seemed to have an effect, but it was minimal. This is proof that Helena’s abilities far surpassed Jamie’s.
“1.”
Helena grinned. Jamie saw two long fangs in her mouth.
Eventually, Jamie unlocked his unique abilities.
Helena, who felt it, immediately released Jamie’s neck. Jamie, who fell to the floor, looked up at Helena.
“… … What on earth is your identity… … .”
“Your speech is still the same. Okay. I wasn’t expecting that. And it may be a bit odd to say this, but I’ve been watching you for quite some time.”
“……what?”
“Even though you’re a gangster, I know very well that your heart is truly for the good of humanity. That’s why I’m letting you live.”
“… … .”
“Let’s do better in the future.”
Everyone was surprised. It ended so blandly.
And Helena’s power is beyond imagination.
I couldn’t understand it.
Where did such a monster come from?
Jinsong was also surprised. No matter how I looked at it, Helena seemed to have gotten stronger.
Helena went back to the head table and sat down, and Jamie also sat down with a grim expression. It was frustrating, but there was nothing he could do.
Because what’s true is true.
Ouch, Helena claps her hands.
“The atmosphere is good. Then I’ll tell you my story. Jin Song-yi’s younger brother published a novel a while ago. It’s called Titan. Has anyone read it?”
Strangely enough, or perhaps it was expected, only Jinsong raised her hand, while the other three remained silent. This is not because they are ignoring Helena, but because they have never really read it.
They are unique awakeners and are the center of the world. They don’t have time to leisurely read novels. They are people who have to split up each day. Jinsong is special. In many ways.
“That’s too bad. Then, do you have any general information about the novel called Titan? Have you never heard of it?”
Isabella Kane was the only one to raise her hand.
“I’ve heard the story. It’s called the Korean Harry Potter. The content is unique, and although I haven’t read the novel, I know the general plot.”
“Really? That’s fortunate. Now, open your ears and listen carefully. The novel called Titan is a true story. On the day when a great cataclysm occurred on Earth, 200 Earthlings were forcibly summoned to another world called Titan. Only Jin Song-yi’s younger brother, Jin Shi-hoo, returned. Do you know what’s interesting here?”
Helena continued, crossing her legs.
“Those 200 doppelgangers were on Earth. You wouldn’t have known. Because I and them have been fighting in a world you don’t even recognize.”
Helena opened her mouth this time.
“See? These fangs?”
“… … .”
“200 doppelgangers, the Underworld of Earth that was fighting against those doppelgangers, I’m a vampire, and those werewolves that were causing a ruckus in Asia a while ago are also part of the Underworld. The doppelgangers want to be called apostles, but thanks to the story I’m about to tell, whatever you call them doesn’t matter.”
Helena seemed to really want to say this.
“The war in the Underworld is over. We, ‘humanity’, have won. Santiago Munez, who was the president of the association until recently, is also a doppelganger. By the way, he is still alive, but you can just think of him as dead. They’ve locked him up underground and are draining his blood. That’s why I’m here now.”
“… … .”
“I don’t care whether you believe this or not. It’s true anyway, and you’ll believe it anyway. Now, let’s talk about why we’re here. The ceasefire with the zombies. You all probably have your own opinions on this. But I’ll make it clear for you.”
