Episode 113
Inside a dark room.
“Shinji… Shinji… .”
The saint who woke up again from a nightmare called the man’s name.
Demon Sword Shinji Nakata.
Aside from himself, Japan’s only national power player.
The only one in Japan who can protect him.
Kugugugung.
The building shook.
The Players Association headquarters is designed so that it will not be shaken by earthquakes of magnitude 7 or higher.
Kugugugugugung.
It was shaking uncontrollably.
“Shinji… .”
The saint called his name helplessly.
at that time.
Sigh.
Her door opened quietly without a knock.
“Shinji… ?”
“This is so outrageous.”
“… … !!”
The moment I identified the man who came in with a polite tone of voice.
Her eyes were filled with fear.
every night. No, every moment.
The person who is eating away at their own spirit.
How could I forget Kim Tae-hyun’s face?
“It’s worse than I thought.”
Taehyun approached her, straightening his clothes that had been disheveled from the battle.
“Ki, Taehyun Kim… .”
Rattling.
The saintess began to tremble.
Memories of that day came to mind.
“Oh, don’t come…” .”
Tears flowed from the saint’s sunken eyes.
Instinctive fear.
The fear imprinted on my body began to awaken.
“Please…” “Please don’t eat me.”
Taehyun made a strange expression at the sight of the saintly woman causing the game.
‘Eat them?’
Predation was not used in the battle with her.
“What are you talking about?”
“please… .”
The saint seemed unable to have any further conversation.
He starts games alone and mutters things he doesn’t know.
As if he was being bullied by someone other than Taehyun.
‘The condition is serious for an aftereffect of complete hypnosis?’
Although it was used to the point where it shocked the mind, it wasn’t enough to make him a wreck like he is now.
Taehyun recalled the battle that day.
It was nothing special.
The S-class skill ‘ultra-fast regeneration’ is considered the strongest in the physical class.
And although it is not yet known to the public.
The S-rank skill ‘Holy Revelation’ is considered the strongest in the mental class.
The saint was a rare case with two S-rank skills.
especially.
‘Holy Revelation is a completely fraudulent skill.’
The reason she has the image she has today is not simply because of her beautiful appearance and the skill called ‘ultra-fast regeneration’.
A ‘holy revelation’ that penetrates the other person’s mind and gives them a command.
Her words, which had national power level stats, had power.
What to say.
When she commanded, ‘Be strong,’ the subject showed an image of jumping over a wall.
When I said, ‘Believe,’ I became a fanatic just for her.
There were limitations due to skill cooldown and risk, but even taking these into account, it was truly a deceptive ability.
The confidence that the saint had in Taehyeon came from there.
A mental attack against which the player is most vulnerable.
If you want to, you can become a rookie in New Korea.
The thought that he would be reduced to nothing more than a toy.
‘surely. If it wasn’t for Zhang Linfeng, I would have been pinned down.’
Even if it were Xu Xin and Tsai Mingmin, they wouldn’t have been able to do much to the saint’s second skill.
At this point, very few people know her second skill.

She only focused on the fact that Taehyun was a multi-skill awakener and growth type.
As before, I activated the second skill ‘Holy Revelation’.
Afterwards, Taehyun, who was waiting, defended the skill with ‘Predation’ and devoured her mind with ‘Complete Hypnosis’.
However, it did not last long as the resistance to ‘holy revelation’ was stronger than expected.
It was definitely like that.
“Okay… help me… Never again in the world of images… .”
“Image world?”
My head tilted.
‘Now that I think about it, Kaiselin… .’
“Do not come… please… .”
Taehyun didn’t care about the saintess’s pleas.
“hey. “What did I see in my mental world that day?”
“Si, Shinji… !!”
I shouted urgently, but it was a knight for her. Shinji Nakata did not appear.
‘I don’t have much time.’
Taehyun approached her and put his hand to her mouth.
I don’t know what action the head of the Japan Players Association will take in a little while.
So for now, I felt like I should stick to my original purpose.
“I need you to do me a favor. Mr. Psycho Saint.”
Taehyun’s eyes suddenly turned red.
He said with an evil smile.

two days later.
For the first time in a while, a heartwarming article spread all over the world.
It was about New Korea and Japan, which are called the Three Dragons of Asia.
‘Japanese saint. Announced intention to treat New Korea’s ranker.’
‘Player Kim Tae-hyun visited Tokyo as a negotiator. A conflict between a ghost sword and a saint?!!
‘Yoo Ah-young, leader of the Night Walker Guild. Those who spread fake news should be caught. ‘Currently preparing to file a complaint.’
‘The United States is watching the atmosphere of both countries.’
‘It is expected that Korea-Japan exchanges will be active in the future.’
‘An unexplored dungeon at Beomjinsa Temple in Kyoto. ‘Will Korea and Japan jointly attack?’
‘Association President Masataka Kubota. ‘Nothing has been decided yet.’
‘Ji Jin-hee, president of the association. He revealed that he has no intention of interacting with those who have forgotten history.’
‘Japan’s invasion story reemerges. Still a noticeable temperature difference.’
* * *
Japanese Prime Minister’s Office.
Percussion!!
“What kind of nonsense article is this?!”
A man for whom it is no exaggeration to say that he runs Japan.
Prime Minister Suga threw the newspaper and shouted at Association President Kubota, who was looking troubled.
“President of the Association!! Why are you allowing these false articles to spread? What on earth is going on in the association? .”
“It’s true.”
“I beg your pardon?!!”
“The saint and the demon sword were defeated.”
“… … !!”
Prime Minister Suga’s face became blank for a moment.
It is no exaggeration to say that it is a national power that supports Japan.
This is because their defeat is something they have never even thought about.
“What is that… .”
“It was Kim Tae-hyun’s doing.”
Prime Minister Suga frowned at Association Chairman Kubota’s statement as if he had nothing to hide.
Taehyun Kim.
He was a man who became the dragon of Asia after a friendly match.
Now that dragon.
They are daring to expand their territory to the Empire of Japan.
“Have you confirmed what they want?”
“ha… Even if the saint’s actions were individual,… .”
Chairman Kubota scratched his forehead as if he was embarrassed.
“Tell me.”
“About the unexplored dungeon at Beomjinji Temple in Kyoto. “We are demanding national support.”
“dare… “Without a guide?”
The first certificate approved by a participating country in a friendly competition.
We already knew that the certificate was lost in a Chinese raid.
“That’s right. They say they don’t want much support. But apart from that, the president of the association, Ji Jin-hee, still does not give up his claims regarding Dokdo and its history… .”
Chairman Kubota sighed in embarrassment.
Originally, Dokdo and historical issues were discussed in exchange for India’s approval for re-issuance.
The plan was to take advantage of one of the two.
However, Ji Jin-hee, who can be said to represent New Korea, and Tae-hyun, who can be said to represent the players.
Since the two people are holding such different opinions, it is difficult for them to decide which beat to follow.
Even the saint and the demon sword were defeated, making a proper fight of strength impossible.
“this… This arrogant… .”
How many countries would dare to make fun of the great Japanese Empire like this?
Because the opponent is not China, but New Korea.
The anger of Prime Minister Suga, who was secretly ignoring them, seemed natural.
“Hold on. “Never give in to their demands.”
“but… .”
“It’s a place we couldn’t conquer either. If it were known that a player from another country, especially a new Korean player, had succeeded in targeting such a place. “Wouldn’t Japan be a laughing stock to the whole world?”
Prime Minister Suga shook his head and said.
It wasn’t wrong.
No, did they set foot in Japan in the first place with the pure intention of conquering dungeons?
Just like China did. Just like they did.
Could it be that there is another intention behind it?
As Prime Minister Suga, who has spent his entire life in politics, he could not accept Taehyun’s request at face value.
“Anyway, the rights in India are for one year. “All you have to do is increase administrative procedures under all kinds of pretexts.”
“But the saint and the demon sword were defeated. If we come out by force once again from the other side… .”
“It is war then. After all, isn’t there America? “If war breaks out, who will they help?”
The new Korea has not yet recovered to its previous economic level due to the aftereffects of unification.
Compared to Japan, the market is less than a third of the size.
It is a fact that even a child in China can tell who the United States, which has a more capitalist mindset than anyone else, will choose between New Korea and Japan.
“Trust me and hold on. “We, the Empire of Japan, will never bow to the likes of Joseon.”
“That is a reasonable statement.”
Contrary to the answer.
Chairman Kubota’s expression was not good.
* * *
Around that time.
Taehyun was having lunch with Ayoung.
It was because of a promise to buy food after the friendly match.
Moreover, since I received Night Walker’s help when meeting the saint, I could no longer postpone my appointment.
‘Because life is give and take.’
Taehyun put steak in his mouth while looking down at the view of Jongno Tower, which was completed less than a year ago.
“so? Do you think Japan will listen to your proposal?”
Although there was a special request from the president of the association, Ji Jin-hee.
She was already supporting Taehyun’s activities voluntarily.
Kim Tae-hyun, a national power player.
Only those who have already established a relationship with him are the main figures of the Players’ Association, Onsaemiro, Night Walker, Magicians, and Alchemist.
The change between the four major guilds from their previously subtle confrontational relationship to a cooperative one was largely due to Taehyun’s influence.
“Those arrogant noblemen would probably refuse.”
“Oh~ But you’re still pretty confident?”
“Sometimes time is medicine.”
To that unknown sound.
This was the moment when Ayoung shook her head and put a piece of steak in her mouth.
“then. “I’ll go first.”
“hmm… ? already? “What about dessert?”
“… “Didn’t our promise include a meal?”
“After a meal, dessert is basic.”
“We’ll do that next time.”
Taehyun, who had already made up his mind, stood up.
“what. Do you have any plans? “I heard Japan can wait leisurely.”
“Well, even if it’s not like that, there’s a lot to do.”
“Hmm~ I’m not saying I’m free either.”
Ayoung crossed her arms and looked uncomfortable.
Before I knew it, Taehyun had disappeared.
He used his specialty, stealth.
“really… “It’s not appropriate for my age.”
Ayoung continued eating alone while looking down at the panoramic view of Seoul.
* * *
Ssssssut.
Taehyun canceled his hiding.
It was already evening time and the sun had set.
We arrived at a shabby store located on the outskirts of Seoul.
‘alcohol. We’ll mix it for you.’
Instead of a sign, such words were hung in front of the store.
Taehyun knocked on the door.
“Are you there?”
After a while, an old man with white hair came out.
“Who are you?”
Taehyun smiled brightly after seeing the old man’s face.
“hello. “I came to see you because I had some business for you.”
“I no longer receive guests. If it’s a combination, look elsewhere… .”
“Skill fusion.”
Stand tall.
The movement of the old man who was turning around stopped.
“I know you woke up late.”
“I don’t know where I heard that… “You got the wrong person.”
The old man shook his head and avoided Taehyun’s gaze.
It was because I didn’t want to make a big deal out of it.
Taehyun read his thoughts and took out the player license from his pocket.
“I know why you react that way, teacher. But she won’t be disappointed when she sees this.”
[New Korea Player: Kim Tae-hyeon]
Under the name.
The S rank was clearly engraved.
