Episode 247
“… … what?”
An all-out attack by the demon world.
That was expected.
But the battlefield is the human world?
So Cheon Hae-seon had no choice but to ask back.
-There is not much time left. It would be good to let people know the seriousness of the matter.
“Are you sure? You said that. “The demons will expand their territory in that order: the other world, the spirit world, and the human world.”
-Not long ago, we thought that too. however… … .
Crassus Dragon moved his head.
Where the dragon’s gaze was directed, there was a field of Anima flowers shining golden.
-The prodromal symptoms mentioned earlier are not different. Monsters have not been appearing in the spirit world for a few days now. Of course, the Anima flower garden was not damaged.
“… … !”
-They were the ones terrorizing the Anima field every day. I don’t think these guys who have completely taken over the other world have given up on the spirit world now. Rather than saying that the invasion stopped, it would be more correct to say that it changed direction.
“That direction… … “You mean the human world?”
-That is the case as of now. At one time, the dimensional interference of the spirit world was weaker than that of the human world, but that is no longer the case. It may be similar, or they may have judged that the dimensional interference in the human world has become weaker.
In each world, there are forces that support dimensional interference.
In other worlds, it is a rare plant.
In the case of the spirit world, anima.
And in the case of the human world, the number of awakened hunters supports dimensional interference.
When the Irregulars, including Cheon Hae-seon, set out to explore the spirit world, the demons selected and killed the transcendental hunters who remained in the human world.
And after that, he kidnapped high-level hunters and turned them into chimeras.
Just a few years ago, there were over a thousand S-rank hunters, but now there are less than half of them.
Naturally, it is possible to interpret that dimensional interference in the human world has become weaker.
“Even so… … “To the extent of changing the direction of the air raid.”
It was a moment that reminded me of the famous photo, ‘I was watching someone else’s house burn, and my house burned down too.’
Lending strength to the spirit world and fighting in the human world are fundamentally different.
Even if the battle is won, the aftereffects are nothing compared to a war between countries.
Even the spirit world, overflowing with vitality, took several years to erase the horrors of war.
And now the tragedy was pointing squarely at humans.
-And one more thing. The demons seem to think we won’t help you.
“… … This can be happen. “In reality, you still don’t trust humans.”
A small number of hunters, including the Irregular, fought to protect the spirit world.
But that is literally just a ‘minority’.
To the beings of the spirit world, humans were those who ‘could not control themselves and trampled on the spirit world.’
There is a justification and reason for humans to go to the spirit world and fight.
But will the beings of the spirit world be willing to participate in the war for humans?
-right. But like you all, there are exceptions in every case.
“… … ?”
-I promise. If demons attack the human world, Imperial Tiger and other guardian spirits will help you.
Cheon Hae-seon looked at Crassus Dragon with different eyes.
“Why so much? “It could kill you.”
-It means that we will give back as much as a few people helped us.
“that… … “It’s a story I’m grateful for.”
Cheon Hae-seon expressed his feelings honestly.
Even after experiencing such pain in the past, the guardian spirits of the spirit world were trying to reach out to humans.
-We also knew the truth. It is not of their own will that humans have become chimeras. Perhaps he was forcing himself to ignore the truth because of his anger over the devastation of the spirit world.
Crassus the Dragon’s eyes turn to the horizon.
A transcendent being who lived much longer than humans and was much more powerful was staring into the distance.
-When humans are on the defensive, guardian spirits will help you. I promise.

The clicking sound of the shutter and the flashing flash.
Despite the questions and sharp looks pouring in from all directions, the president of WHPO was confident and confident.
“The operation to recapture the secret hunter is a feat that will forever remain in hunter history. We eliminated 25% of the demons whose existence was unknown, and even the kidnapped hunters returned to their normal lives. “We plan to hold a national funeral for Hunter, who unfortunately passed away during this process, and we will provide all we can to the bereaved family.”
the reporter in the front row asked, taking his hand off his laptop.
“What do you think of the future?”
“So far, WHPO has only been paying lip service and failing to act properly. However, as long as I am governor, I promise to protect you from any kind of threat.”
Cylia’s expression was haughty, her voice was firm, and her eyes were extremely firm.
This is the typical example of a leader that people want.
She was showing with her whole body that even though the new president was different, there was something different about it.
“wow!”
“no… … ?”
Suddenly, the reporters’ eyes widen and they each let out an exclamation.
‘Hehe. Was my interview that impressive?’
Cylia smiled happily in her heart.
The ‘Recapture of Bisu’ press conference, which had been organized for several days, became even more heated at this moment.
“What happened?”
“How did you suddenly appear here?”

‘What are you talking about? ‘Who’s showing up?’
Unfortunately, it wasn’t her interview that caught reporters by surprise.
Next to Cylia.
Because someone was already sitting next to the empty chair.
“Hunter Cheon Hae-seon!”
“Are you saying something?”
Cheon Hae-seon.
He suddenly appeared at Cylia’s press conference.
“???????????????”
Why are you here?
Of course, Cylia’s reaction could not help but be like this.
I confirmed that you were in Korea until yesterday, but you came to the United States overnight?
Cheon Hae-seon made eye contact with Silia and closed one eye.
Cylia snorted at the sight of her begging for understanding.
“Here, someone get me the microphone.”
How safe would you be to refuse instructions?
Soon, the hosting staff came over and set up a microphone in front of Cheon Hae-seon.
“hmm… … .”
Where should I start talking?
After thinking for a moment, Cheon Hae-seon brought up a story from quite a long time ago.
“In Seoul, there is an area where rich and poor villages are next to each other along a river. “Before I became a hunter, I lived in a poor neighborhood.”
‘What are you talking about? Are you suddenly planning to publish an autobiography?’
Cylia and several reporters tilted their heads.
“A strange gate where monsters appear in multiple places at the same time. That’s what happened in our area. Unfortunately, the guild that governed our area did not have enough manpower to defend both sides. “It will be easy to guess which area they would have cared for first.”
Cheon Hae-seon emphasized the equality of life by mentioning the Glory Guild’s actions in the past.
“Ten years ago, under the leadership of WHPO, a wronged hunter was accused of being a traitor to humanity. Even though there was actually something else to kill. Well, the new president is doing a good job now… … .”
“hey.”
Cylia, who had been listening quietly, could not bear it any longer and asked him.
“Thank you for the compliment, but I don’t think you showed up to talk about that. “Is there any more exciting news?”
“Yes.”
The corner of Cheon Hae-seon’s mouth moved in a strange direction.
That smile resembled the expression of a mine rather than that of a human.
“The demons will soon invade the human world. From this moment on, we must prepare for war.”
“!!!!!!!!!!”
Although I asked for exciting news, this wasn’t so hot that it felt like jumping into a pit of fire.
There’s a war out of nowhere.
And here in the human world?
“Cheon Hae-seon. “What does that mean?”
Silia asked hastily, but Cheon Hae-seon continued to speak while still looking straight ahead.
“This is what I received from the guardian spirit of the spirit world a little while ago. The Demon World no longer cares about dimensional interference from the Spirit World. The other world has already been taken over by demons. “It is obvious where their blades are aimed.”
Everyone at the scene, including Silia, listened to Cheon Hae-seon’s words with bated breath.
“I don’t know exactly when that will be. It could be tomorrow, or it could be a few months later. What is clear is that all of humanity must prepare for the future. “We need to build a tighter emergency system than we have now and revise the system so that support can be provided to each country under the leadership of WHPO.”
“… … .”
The noisy press conference room was suddenly filled with silence.
What Cheon Hae-seon revealed was very heavy, serious, and scary.
Considering that this was a press conference celebrating the hunters’ achievements, it could be said to be truly ironic.
“I think Cylia is doing a great job as president of WHPO.”
Cheon Hae-seon looked at her with a serious expression and raised one shoulder.
“I hope that all hunters will continue to move smoothly according to the president’s instructions. but,”
A handsome young man looking at the camera.
A bright light was shining between the straight eyes.
“Whether the weak or the strong. Everyone has rights, no matter how much or how little money they have. The first is the right to know.”
In the past, President Rather deceived all of humanity by concealing and fabricating incidents.
And what the result was was clearly imprinted in everyone’s mind.
There is no such thing as information that is only available to some people.
Especially if it is information related to survival.
“The second is the right to survive on one’s own.”
Having your life weighed by others.
Cheon Hae-seon thought something like that should never happen again.
Should I say I am fortunate?
Unlike before, the situation had changed a lot.
Doisu was inaugurated as the president of the Korean Hunter Association, and the Glory Guild was virtually under his control.
The situation is that Sylia is in charge of the world.
The big picture drawn by Cheon Hae-seon was already realized in an ideal form.
“A little more… … Could you please explain in detail?”
A reporter raised his hand and asked him:
Those who knew his past nodded, but to those who did not, it may have sounded like a bit of nonsense.
“The governor will give you a detailed explanation.”
“W-what?”
Cheon Hae-seon spoke as if he had reached an agreement with Silia, but she looked at him with a face that said, ‘The agreement is nonsense.’
“I have work to do in Korea. I’ll contact you.”
Cheon Hae-seon closed one eye once again and opened the transparent membrane with a flickering green light.
“Oh oh… … !”
“That one?”
A hunter who can open and close dimensional doors at will.
The atmosphere at the press conference, which had been somewhat heavy, began to become tense again.
“Hey, Cheon Hae-seon. Come and go as you please. “Is this the main room of your house?”
“I thought I should get it to everyone quickly. “I don’t want it to be kept to ourselves.”
“OK. Thank you so much.”
Silia gritted her teeth, and Cheon Hae-seon grinned and crossed the dimensional gate.
Pot.
Cheon Hae-seon suddenly appeared and disappeared as if it had never happened.
Now, no one at the press conference was paying attention to the operation to recapture Bisu.
The only thing left was to deal with what Cheon Hae-seon had prepared.
“Governor! “Have we discussed this beforehand?”
Cylia answered a reporter’s question.
“Hey reporter. “How do I look now?”
“pixilated… … “It’s just the facial expression.”
“okay. “If I had known in advance, would my expression be like this?”
Sylia snorted once before returning to her characteristic arrogant face.
“It’s just as everyone heard. Let’s prepare for the final battle. “The one who has nothing will have to run around to survive, and the one who has will have to run around to avoid being taken away.”
