Chapter 245 - Sin (3)
Unusually, South Africa had three capitals.
administrative judicial legislation.
The capital was divided according to each power.
Administrative capital Pretoria.
Judicial Capital Bloemfontein.
The legislative capital, Cape Town.
There were three capitals in total.
And, of course, each capital city had its own representative.
The commonly referred to as three divisions.
It was a way to prevent dictatorship, but
there was no such thing as perfect in the world.
smart.
Acudo Apo suddenly came to his senses at the sound of a knock outside the door. Akudo Apo, the
current president of South Africa and the leader of tyranny.
South Africa was now in a situation where power was concentrated under Acudo Apo.
Acudoapo slowly raised his gaze and looked at the door from which the sound came.
Around him, there were a lot of luxurious ornaments that were not luxurious.
Of course, the president had to be in his office in Pretoria, the administrative capital.
Because the president meant the head of the executive branch.
However, where Acudo-Apo is now located, it was not the administrative capital.
Johannesburg
is the largest and wealthiest city in South Africa .
Acudoapo was sitting in an office located in a luxurious mansion.
“Come in.”
Click.
With Acudoapo's permission, a man entered the office.
A man who exudes the feeling of a seasoned mercenary.
It was Akan, the president of the South African Pro Hunter Association.
Acudoapo slowly opened his mouth to Arkan.
“What is going on?”
“The chief secretary who went to Kuzan Village cannot be reached.”
At Arkan's report, Acudo Apo let out a saliva.
“Is it the work of Queque and the rebels?”
“There is a possibility, but…”
Akan didn’t finish his words.
Seeing Arkan like that, Akudoapo asked again.
“Could it be that guy again?”
“I think it is very likely.”
Tsk.
Acudoapo clicked his tongue once.
“What about the Jinrihoe?”
“There has been no further contact as of yet.”
“Even though you ate diamonds like that, you didn’t say anything? They are like pure thugs.”
Acudoapo distorted his expression.
Akan opened his mouth slowly at the appearance of Akudoapo.
“It's my personal opinion, but I think it's probably the man's arbitrary behavior.”
“Isn’t that what the Jinrihoe ordered?”
“The Jinrihoe doesn’t seem to be able to control that man either.”
Acudoapo nodded involuntarily.
A man whose name I don't know.
The man with overwhelming strength was truly unpredictable.
Of course, thanks to that guy, I was able to stop the rebels.
We were able to defeat the forces of Que-Qu, the hero of Cataclysm.
However, Acudo Apo could not be trusted.
I didn't believe it exactly.
Now, they were trading with each other with diamonds.
But when will he come back?
When will the blade turn toward you?
I couldn't possibly fathom what it was like.
Uncontrollable forces are like ticking time bombs.
Acudoapo slowly raised his head and asked.
“Akan, you subdue that man. Is it still impossible?”
“sorry.”
Akan bowed his head.
Acudoapo was lost in thought for a moment at the appearance of Arkan. Akan
, the president of the South African Pro Hunter Association and
a powerful man close to the hero of the cataclysm.
In South Africa, the only person to stop Akan was Queku, the hero of the cataclysm.
A being called the pinnacle of humanity.
It could be said that only the existence of a cataclysm hero could stop Akan.
that means that.
It meant that the poor guy's skills were at least as close to a cataclysmic hero as possible.
However, as Acudoapo knew, such a cataclysmic hero did not exist.
“Hmm, who the hell is that guy…”
Right then.
“Who am I?”
one side of the office.
Suddenly a strange voice was heard.
“Who are you!”
Arkhan hurriedly drew his weapon and looked where the sound came from.
and looked at it.
“It’s me. The guy you just talked about.”
There is the man I just talked about.
A twisted being stood there.
The twisted being walked out with a single expression.
Acudoapo and Akan hardened their expressions involuntarily.
“What are you so afraid of? Did you even gossip about me?”
Acudoapo and Akan did not respond.
The twisted being looked at the two and giggled.
Then he waved his hand and opened his mouth again.
“by the way. Didn't I just ask who I am?”
Two people still unanswered.
It's as if the twisted beings are all over the place.
said with a grin.
“You humans are. It has one strange feature. They tend to dislike anything that looks like you humans.”
This is the heterogeneous discomfort commonly referred to as the ‘Uncanny Valley'.
“But you know what? Other than you humans, other animals don't feel those feelings at all.”
The twisted being trudged in front of Acudoapo.
“If there are things that resemble you, you'll say, ‘Oh, you look like me.' And it goes without a big problem.”
And then he stuck his face out and spoke.
“Why?”
The face of the approaching twisted entity. Something
that resembles but does not resemble a human
.
Unknown discomfort rises.
sigh.
“The answer is simple.”
The face that the twisted being had pushed in was pulled back.
Then, as if walking around the office, he started walking here and there.
“Only you humans are similar to humans at some point in their evolution. from something non-human.”
Turbuck.
“Precisely, it means that I had to feel fear and run away from something that looked like a human but was not human.”
Turbuck.
“It means that it was essential for survival to the extent that it was imprinted on human instinct.”
Turbuck.
“Then here is the question.”
pop.
The twisted being stopped walking.
Then he looked up at Akudoapo and Akan.
And two people looking at such a distorted existence.
“......”
“......”
They couldn't possibly think of the twisted being as the same human being.
The horror with which humans fear their fellow humans.
The existence from which that fear germinated, the twisted existence.
“What on earth did you guys have to run away from?”
Overwhelming fear emanated from the twisted being.
My mind went giddy with the fear that weighed down the entire space.
and momentarily
“Puhahahahahahaha!!”
The twisted being let out a big laugh.
“don't worry. don't worry. Because I have no intention of touching you guys.”
It's annoying too.
“It's just that there are people who want to see you guys.”
The twisted being slowly turned its head.
The gazes of Akudoapo and Akan also naturally headed there.
where attention is focused.
A boy was standing there.
Outwardly, he was an ordinary boy.
A needy boy common in the poor.
However, the momentum that burst out was not at all normal.
I feel some…some guilt.
A terrible murderous intent is felt in the red bloodshot eyes.
“...... Run away, sir.”
Akan couldn't possibly think of it as a human.
sigh.
The twisted being pursed its lips and opened its mouth.
“I heard that this child has business with you guys.”
The boy trudged forward.
“If it wasn't for you... If it weren't for you...”
Equina wouldn't have died.
#
“Equina... is alive?”
“huh.”
Seeing Ha-yoon nodding, Seo-joon hurriedly approached Equina.
Then, the senses were raised to their maximum.
Irina's sense of dominance unfolds at first glance.
between those feelings.
My heart pounding...
I heard the very weak beating of my heart.
surely.
It was certainly very weak, but Equina's heart was beating.
Could it be because of the weak body?
Was it because of that that he went black without any particular shock?
Did he think that Equina was dead?
I don't know.
But what was certain was that Equina was not dead yet.
“The condition is very serious. I was also not in good shape. I won't last long like this.”
Hearing Ha-yoon's words again, Seo-joon asked.
“How long can you last?”
“I'll try to hold on to the soul as long as I can, but... Haru. one day is the limit More than that, I also...”
Haru...
Seo-joon muttered intricately.
“What about the others? Are there any other people alive besides Equina?”
“I’ve been looking all over, but…”
Hayoon shook her head slowly.
“And literally just hold on. It has to be treated in it.”
To put it simply, it was that it could only be made so that it would not die.
But Equina's condition was too serious.
No matter how angry he lost his reason for a while, even
with Seo-joon's senses, he could not recognize the reaction of life.
It was safe to say that no one could cure such a grievous condition.
Equina, whose death is virtually confirmed.
but only one person.
I didn't know if it would be possible if it was onomatopoeia.
Seo-joon picked up his smartphone after a moment of thought.
The net flight time from Korea to South Africa is only 15 hours.
Considering the time to come, diagnose, and treat,
it was a time that could only be met by leaving Korea right now.
‘I'd rather listen to Hwata's premium lecture...'
Seojun shook his head.
Due to Hwata's premium lecture, it was not possible to bring Hwata directly.
However, as a transcendent person, Hwa-ta is subject to causal restrictions.
As a result, it could not directly affect the real world.
The only thing Hwa-ta can affect is Seo-jun, a student.
Of course, with the help of Hwa-ta, Seo-jun was able to treat himself.
However, a momentary mistake was directly linked to Equina's death.
I don't know if it's after learning it step by step, but
there wasn't much time left for Equina right now.
A one-time opportunity.
I couldn't gamble with Equina's life.
In order to save Equina, Uiseong is needed after all.
If it was the onomatopoeia that healed the dying demon,
it would be able to cure Equina as well.
Seojun immediately contacted Uiseong.
The conversation with Uiseong didn't last very long.
What Seo-joon did was short, so he cut the front and back to explain the circumstances.
And he asked if he could come to South Africa as soon as possible.
so what's the situation?
I'd also ask how things are going.
-Okay. I'll get you started right now.
Uiseong just cut off contact with those words.
Seojun let out a small sigh and put his smartphone in.
Uiseong would have to come and find out.
Still, it felt like an hour had passed.
The same is true when considering the state of ignorance.
Above all, if Uiseong himself came and saw Kwavna...
wait.
Seo-joon's body froze at the sudden thought.
Then, he strode towards the heap of corpses.
“Seojun?”
Seo-yoon asked as if wondering at Seo-jun's sudden action.
Seo-joon checked the faces of each person without saying a word.
and.
‘does not exist.'
It was confirmed that there was no Kwavna in it.
Seojun was lost in thought for a moment.
Kwabna definitely went back to Kuzan Village with the crew.
Unless it leaked the other way,
he must have headed for Kuzan Village.
Then Kwabna's corpse also had to be in it.
I know it's cruel, but it was realistic.
‘But the fact that Kwavna can't be seen...'
It was then.
“Captain! Captain Queku!!”
An urgent voice came from somewhere.
There was a member of the rebel army running in a hurry.
Queque took a step forward and asked.
“What is going on?”
“That is...! Heh heh!”
Daewon was gasping for breath and could not speak properly.
But that's for a while.
The crew shouted loudly.
“President Acudoapo...is said to be captured!”
“What?!”
At the sudden words of the crew member, Queku was startled and shouted.
Seo-joon and his teammates were also not very different from Que-ku's reaction.
Queque asked the crew.
“What do you mean! Suddenly Acudoapo is captured?”
“I just heard from the crew in Johannesburg...! I don't know the details of the situation. However, it is said that there was a big commotion in Akudoapo's mansion a while ago. And after a while... heh heh...!”
The agent took a moment to catch his breath, then spoke again.
“It is said that Akudoapo was being dragged away covered in blood!”
“What is this...!”
Queque asked right away.
“Did anyone figure out who it was?”
“They say they saw the face... but they say it was the first time they saw it. Except for a certain Asian and a small boy...”
And when I heard this far.
‘A twisted being.'
Seo-joon was able to grasp the identity at once.
The twisted existence was in the form of Ryu Jin-cheol.
And there weren't that many beings who could do this kind of thing.
Exactly, the ability to do such a thing.
twisted being.
There was only him.
And the little boy...
Seo-joon shook his head.
yet.
Not sure.
So, Seojun asked Daewon.
“Can I know exactly where it is?”
“Oh, it's not difficult to tell you, but...”
Seo-joon's sudden words made Daewon look very flustered.
Before long, Seoyoon asked Seojun.
“Are you thinking of going there yourself?”
“yes.”
Seojun nodded.
Then Seoyoon nodded and said.
“Then we will prepare.”
Seoyoon turned around and spoke to Sooyeon and Minyul.
“Are Suyeon and Minyul okay?”
“of course!”
“Of course, sister.”
Seoyoon nodded slightly.
And then he immediately told Hayoon.
“Hayoon, please stay here. Until Uiseong-nim comes... Take care of this child.”
“okay. When Uiseong-nim comes, I will join right away.”
So, the team members started preparing each other.
but.
“no.”
Seo-jun shook his head right away toward Seo-yoon.
“I'm going alone this time.”
“yes yes?”
Then Seoyoon was greatly taken aback and asked again.
“Ha, but…!”
“I have to go alone.”
Seojun shook his head resolutely.
A situation where you go face to face with a twisted being.
It didn't mean that the team members weren't helpful.
The team members were helpful enough.
Without going far, before.
I could tell just by looking at what happened in the mine.
If it wasn't for the team members, Seo-joon would have suffered greatly.
It was possible that he would have died as soon as he could have been trapped there.
For Seo-jun, the team members were very helpful.
But not this time.
To be precise, I couldn't get help even if I wanted to.
That would be too.
“It's a trap...”
Because that was a trap to summon Seo-jun.
A voice suddenly heard.
The eyes of Seo-jun and other team members all headed there.
And there, the star of darkness was awake in an invisible position.
“Grandpa!”
Min-yul was surprised and approached Amseong.
“Are you alright?”
“It's good enough that you won't die...”
Darkness nodded slowly.
“Cool!”
However, unlike his actions, his condition still seemed serious.
Amseong looked at Minyul and Seojun alternately and said,
“I thought I was going to die there, but… you guys saved my life twice.”
Amseong looked at Minyul and Seojun with grateful eyes.
Saying that he was a cataclysmic hero, he was saved twice by a professional hunter.
Amseong shed a laugh mixed with food and self-deprecation.
Eventually, Amseong looked at Seo-jun and said.
“When I was in captivity... I could hear the plans of the Jinrihoe bastards. It was a ploy to lure you in with me as bait. It looks like the plan went awry... but the trap itself doesn't seem to have gone awry.”
and.
“I know.”
Seojun nodded slowly.
Because I knew a little bit about it.
Simple, even at this moment.
Gungnir's function didn't work properly.
A fight with a great voice.
Through that unexpected fight, I was able to save the planet of darkness.
By doing so, he was able to distort the plan of Jinrihoe.
But it wasn't a twisted being.
I haven't caught the twisted being yet.
The twisted being alone is plotting something.
Its purpose must be none other than Seo-jun himself.
I clearly know
“I still have to go.”
I had to go though.
“It was prepared by a great voice himself. No matter how messed up the plan is, even you are in danger this time. Maybe it's really life-.”
“I promised.”
Seo-joon cut off Amseong's words and said.
“Let’s go to Korea together.”
“......”
Immersion was at a loss for words without even realizing it.
I was feeling numb.
Really this time.
It's really dangerous.
It was nothing more than throwing a straw into the fire.
Even if Seojun is the strongest hunter of mankind.
The case was different now, when the great voice came directly.
That's why it was stupid.
It was an act of entering knowingly that it was a trap.
no benefit there.
There are no benefits.
The promise Seojun said?
I didn't know what it was.
And I honestly didn't care what it was.
Because the value of Seo-joon's existence could not be compared with that of a country.
He shouldn't have cared if South Africa perished as long as he could save Seo-jun.
That's why I have to stop Seo-joon.
“......”
Ignorance couldn’t utter any words.
according to that logic.
Couldn't he also be alive like this?
The moment he was taken hostage, he had to face death as it was.
There was no reason for Seo-joon to come here to South Africa.
Still, Seo-joon came here to save himself.
Even if there is no profit or benefit.
okay.
That bastard was that kind of guy.
Even if you're crazy about money.
Even though he is a fraudster who does not see any loss even if he dies.
Even though he is a clever guy who wants to give me a chestnut at some point.
“I have to go get him.”
I'm stupid enough to be ignorant
when it's like this .
“Then I will go alone.”
The ignorance couldn't utter a word.
#
Seojun immediately left Kuzan Village.
The team members said they would follow Seo-jun, but Seo-joon strongly discouraged them.
Like Amseong said, this time it was too dangerous.
A twisted being who may have awakened the power of pride.
A trap set by the great voice himself.
I couldn't deal with the twisted existence while taking care of the safety of my teammates.
In the end, Seo-jun had to leave Kuzan Village alone.
So Seo-joon is where the twisted being and the boy presumed to be Kwabna are.
I was able to arrive in Johannesburg, the largest city in South Africa.
And Seo-joon was able to meet the rumored boy right away.
The boy was in the form of Kwabna.
However, it was not the Kwabna that Seojun knew.
Seo-joon sees only one person.
However, what Seo-jun recognized were two beings.
“Brother... Equina... is dead.”
He was once a human, but
lost his mind.
“Now… I just… I just want everyone to die.”
A terrible sin that
originated in humans but was distorted hideously.
here.
“Perhaps my older brother…is the same…?”
There were two beings who were human.
