Episode 233
233. Promoting national prestige
[As of this moment, I, ‘Gustavo’, end the dictatorship and surrender to the ‘Black Scythe’. Slavery will be abolished, and all oppression, including communication, shipping routes, and trade, will be lifted. From now on, I pledge to never appear in public again as a way of atonement for what happened in the past.]
An unbelievable video appeared on the TV screen that had not been shown for a while.
Gustavo, the dictator who ruled Mexico, announced that he would step down from his position.
With an apology.
“Is this real?”
“The face is real… … .”
“Aren’t you lying to fool us again?”
People could not easily believe it out of fear.
Would the monster of monsters who waged a reign of terror retreat so easily?
But it didn’t take long for doubt to turn into faith.
Not only did TV come on normally, communication and the Internet became active, but families who had been taken away like slaves returned home.
Above all, there were no players on the streets, the fear that oppressed people whenever they had the chance.
It looks like they immigrated somewhere as a group.
“Huh, you’re really back to normal?”
“Gustavo and the players hid like this?”
I don’t know where they went, but one thing was certain.
The reason the citizens gained freedom was none other than the black scythe mentioned in the video.
* * *
[Black Sickle rescues six countries, including Mexico, Brazil, India, and China, in one week.]
[The Black Scythe really did it! Expressing gratitude to citizens from all over the world… … .]
[The hero who saved the country in crisis, his name is Black Scythe.]
[President Yoon said, If there is a country that rules by force, we will continue to report it.]
[The black scythe that saved hundreds of millions of citizens doesn’t want anything in return… … .]
Articles came in one after another.
Black Scythe’s heroic actions were reported all over the world.
The reactions of netizens who had previously ridiculed him for being arrogant also changed significantly.
└Wow… … He pulls this off. A true hero, a hero.
└This opportunity was used to properly promote national prestige.
└Shouldn’t this at least be given a medal of honor?
└No medal required. Bring the black sickle to the National Assembly!
└I am a Korean citizen living in Germany, and thanks to Black Sickle, the image of my country has improved a lot. thank you.
└But was there really a country that was oppressed by players?
└Until a few days ago, people were asking where such a country is, but now I can’t even see the nose.
└The malicious commenters who criticized the black scythe hid like c*ckroaches, right?
└Black Scythe is proud to be Korean.
└Black Scythe is a god! Black Scythe is a god! Black Scythe is a god! Black Scythe is a god! Black Scythe is a god! Black Scythe is a god!
└The real black scythe is a legend. All I can say is that it’s amazing. How can you be so devoted to others? … .
└I wonder if this is so great. If I had the strength, I would go out and help others.
└Witness, the kid in the corner of the room typing on the keyboard and picking his nose must be doing it well.
└Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
└It may seem easy to say, but it is not really easy. You risk your life to wage war against evil… … Just respect.
└I believed it. I know that Black Scythe will use his power in the right place.
└The comment above, if you go to the comment collection, he is the one who left malicious comments. Don’t believe it.
└ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Do you really see a change in attitude because they are bailing out countries?
└f*ck, it’s disgusting. Malicious commenters.
└But how did they make that video happen? Did he threaten to kill you with a gun if you didn’t listen?
└What kind of gun is it for people who avoid guns? He must have threatened me with a scythe.
└Just kill me, why are you threatening me? … .
└They probably killed him after filming the video. Could it be possible that he was saved?
└These guys are worth dying for. Both the instigator and the players who followed him.
└You did a really good job filming the video. Not only does it clearly show that he has been subdued, but it can also serve as evidence. Moreover, the status of our country also rose significantly due to this incident. Because I achieved a feat that no one else has been able to achieve.
└Correct. He almost became a great person who saved the world.
‘What a great man is.’
Ryumin let out a heartless laugh and put his cell phone in his pants.
‘Well, I don’t feel bad.’
Not long ago, he was being criticized for being arrogant, but in less than a week, he became a praised hero.
It was only natural that he became a vigilante against crime and saved many people.
‘The comments said it was a difficult task, but it was easier than I thought.’
How do we take our country back from those who usurped power by force?
The answer is simple.
‘Just take it away with the same force and that’s it.’
It is simple to use greater power to punish the instigator and all the trash involved in the coup.
However, since there is no need to show the body as evidence after killing them, you have to get them to surrender.
how?
‘Just like now, we kill him, turn him into a guy, and film him.’
Ryumin has an assassin’s mask and can transform into the player he kills.

It’s not that difficult to operate.
‘Information is enough to read their inner thoughts and find out.’
I already read Gustavo’s inner thoughts and found out the nickname of the leader who wanted to create an independent country in China and India.
Those guys left a video after their death just like the other guys.
‘Since then, we have saved two more countries. Likewise, I left a video for everyone around the world to see.’
As a result, the number of players Ryumin killed in one week was close to 400.
These are criminals who had to be killed while saving a total of six countries.
‘Now I’ve saved all the countries I need to save.’
Seeing as there are no more reports coming in, it must be considered certain.
‘But I have no intention of stopping.’
He asked the president to notify him immediately if any additional information comes in.
Because there might be another country that you don’t know about.
‘What if another country asks for help again?’
Each time, Ryumin intended to step forward like an apostle of justice.
It was not simply an action to increase one’s value and make one a hero.
This was to prevent a dystopia in the world and to reduce the number of players victimized by criminal players.
‘Only when I carry a gun can I prevent future crimes.’
Ryu Min officially declared that he would prevent players from committing crimes and took action.
Other criminals who heard the rumor would have no choice but to cower like turtles.
‘The only way to control disobedient criminals is to use a stick.’
Laws do not apply to players who are outside the human category.
The only way to tie them up is to press them down with even stronger force.
In the player world, whoever has power is the law.
Just like Ryu Min is doing now.
‘The player’s crime has been solved to some extent. Now the key is to hold on as long as possible with the remaining players.’
Of course, we can’t save all the players.
Half of the cards must be discarded each round.
‘So, we should fill the surroundings with necessary people as much as possible. Like the people here.’
Currently, a large crowd of people were lining up in front of Ryumin.
The nationalities were diverse, including the United States, Canada, Argentina, the United Kingdom, Spain, and France.
Players who all came to join the Shinigami Church.
Maybe it’s because of the week-long relief effort, but it’s even more crowded.
‘Among these, only trustworthy people should be included in the Four Gods Church.’
Skills are skills, but the most important thing is whether you can trust them and entrust your back to them.
It’s only natural that the last round was a boss room that required a party of 5 or more.
“Black Scythe.”
As Christine approached, Ryumin stood up.
Next to her was a familiar face.
It’s Nathan.
“He is my father. “You are a priest of this synagogue.”
“hello. “It’s called the Black Scythe.”
As I bowed my head and bowed politely in Korean style, a smile spread across Nathan’s lips.
“This is Nathan Craig. “I really wanted to meet her daughter, perhaps because I had heard so much about her.”
The two men shook hands.
Although it may seem like their first meeting, the two actually met in Korea before.
‘Even though I was a prophet at the time.’
Ryumin smiled behind his mask and spoke in a softer tone than usual.
“I needed a place to hold an interview, so thank you for lending it to me.”
“Haha, no. “You are the benefactor who saved my daughter, so of course I should give you this much.”
“Still, this is clearly an event to join another religion, so you are so willing to give it up. “Wouldn’t God be angry?”
“It can’t be. The Bible says to obey and submit to those who lead you. Black Scythe is someone who saves and guides many people, right? It may be burdensome, but I even think of it as the second coming of God.”
“It is impossible to say that it is the second coming of God.”
“Didn’t you save that many people?”
“I just did what I had to do as a person with power.”
“You have both skill, character, and humility… … Are you to the point where you want to bring this to our synagogue instead of the Four Gods Church? ha ha ha!”
Christine, who was watching the conversation between the two, breathed a sigh of relief.
Although I didn’t show it, I was worried that it might not suit my personality.
Black Scythe had a blunt and authoritative tone, while Nathan had a stubborn side.
‘But I was worried for no reason. Black Scythe also has a softer voice than usual, and my father also takes it kindly.’
I feel fortunate that the conversation goes surprisingly well, but I hear a surprising sound.
“Are you by any chance married? “What about your lover?”
“no. There isn’t… … .”
“Haha, that’s good. My daughter also doesn’t have a lover, so how could she possibly be willing to meet him? … .”
“father! What are you talking about? “Embarrassing people!”
Nathan had no choice but to stop here due to his daughter screaming.
“Hmm, anyway, please take care of my daughter. then… … .”
When Nathan left, Christine had to scramble to catch up.
“Oh, don’t worry about what your father says. Sometimes they say things like that as a joke. You know the American joke, right? American style, haha… … .”
“I don’t care.”
“… … .”
Why do I feel sad when I say I don’t really care?
“Well, I guess so. You probably don’t care. Black Scythe is someone else… … “Oh, no.”
Christine hesitated, poking out her lower lip.
‘There’s a strange misunderstanding.’
Ryumin said he felt the misunderstanding should be resolved.
“Looking at you, you think I’m in a relationship with Yamti because I go out with her often, but that’s absolutely not the case.”
“no?”
“of course. I just take him with me because the job requires his abilities. “There are no personal feelings.”
“ah… … .”
It was a misunderstanding.
Christine’s heart felt lighter.
“So please don’t have unnecessary misunderstandings.”
“all right.”
First of all, I felt like all the pent-up congestion had been lifted as I cut and organized it like this.
“It’s time, so let’s go to the interview.”
Ryumin conducted one-on-one interviews with the people lined up in the chapel one by one.
The questions were three simple.
“Why do you want to join the Four Gods Church?”
“It’s because I respect Black Scythe.”
“Do you have a criminal record?”
“doesn’t exist. “I have lived my whole life with integrity.”
“Finally, are you confident that the information provided by the Four Gods Church will not be leaked to the outside world?”
“of course. “My mouth is heavier than I look.”
Ryu Min, the interviewer, delved into the other person’s inner thoughts while listening to their answers.
‘I’m serious. There are no problems with my personality.’
And after judging various factors, it is announced on the spot whether you have passed or not.
“pass. “Congratulations on joining the Four Gods Church.”
“thank you! Thank you, Black Scythe!”
In this way, regardless of ability, anyone was allowed to join as long as there were no problems with their personality.
As a result, the number of followers of the Four Gods Church increased.
Up to 400 people.
‘It’s not a bad achievement.’
We may not be able to take all 400 people to the final round, but they will all benefit from being members of the Four Gods.
The benefit of knowing about the next round in advance.
Ryu Min, with a satisfied smile, finished recruiting believers and returned home with the delegation.
The week-long trip to America ended successfully.
And after three peaceful weeks, round 14 began.
