00331 What is it? Then I won’t do it. ————————————————– ———————-=
The Western Continent is a completely different region from other continents. If the East, South, and North continents are steadily preparing to obtain the Zero Code according to their own purposes, the West Continent can be seen as a place where civil war is always ongoing and all kinds of ugly things such as murder, robbery, and rape are committed on a daily basis.
in short. It was so-called a ‘lawless zone’, and it was a continent that showed the end of extremes.
Therefore, the weight of Baek Seo-yeon’s words, “Conversion of the Northern Continent to the Western Continent,” is by no means light.
As expected, the moment Baek Seo-yeon finished speaking, the inside of the conference room began to become cluttered. Not only did they make a loud noise, but they looked quite embarrassed as they looked at each other’s faces in turns.
“stop! “Why are you making such a fuss when you’ve already heard everything?”
And that moment. Lee Hyo-eul’s sharp cry came out. From the moment I entered the room, she looked completely different from when I saw her before. She said she has been acting as a guardian for seven years. Unless she had gained this level of control through her past experience, she would be disappointed if she did not show this level of control.
“I still have questions, and I have a lot to tell you. “It’s embarrassing if you’re already surprised when the climax hasn’t even come out yet.”
“under. If this isn’t a climax, then what is? Lee Hyo-eul?”
At that time, one of the people at the head of the table, who had remained silent until now, spoke up. He looks like he’s in his late 40s. He was a Honam-type man with gentle eyes and thick facial features.
Lee Hyo-eul slightly raised her eyes and answered in a tone that felt a bit overbearing.
“Just wait and see. Goryeo Road.”
He then spoke once more to Go Yeon-ju, who was standing blankly.
“Shadow Queen? “Can you please continue?”
Go Yeon-ju nodded slowly. And then he opened his mouth again towards Baek Seo-yeon.
“The transformation of the northern continent into the western continent. “Can you tell me more about that?”
A new question began. In no time, the son-in-law became calm again. Everyone here was paying close attention and focusing their attention on Baek Seo-yeon’s mouth. With everyone’s eyes on her, her lips calmly parted.
“yes. The first step toward turning the Northern Continent into the Western Continent was to kill its guardian. And this has already been achieved by murdering the Godmother.”
“what? “Those vagabonds murdered the godmother?!”
The bomb-like remarks continue. Even though I have already heard part of it from Lee Hyo-eul, there is bound to be a difference between just hearing it and seeing it in person. Especially in front of ‘Eyes of Temptation’, which completely blocks the possibility that it could be a lie.
“So you’re saying it wasn’t Do Young-rok who did it?”
“I don’t know what’s going on… ! Ha, indeed.”
It gets noisy, then calms down, then gets noisy again, then calms down again, then gets noisy again.
While this interesting situation was repeating itself, Lee Hyo-eul took a step forward. Then she began to walk leisurely along her midline. It seemed like they were deliberately trying to show composure amidst this chaos.
“is it so. The culprit is not the Golden Lion, nor is it us. But the real culprit, the vagabond, was not revealed and we were just fighting among ourselves?”
“That means… .”
“Now that I think about it, there will be people I know and there will be people I don’t know… . Everyone is probably curious. Why is the Great Mother called the Guardian? And why the tramps tried to murder her godmother.”
I got a bit of a feel for it from a conversation I had with Hyoeul Lee before, but this was something I didn’t know in detail. I listened to her, thinking that she was worth listening to.
“First of all, I am the undisputed defender of the Northern Continent. I continued in this role for 7 years. “I’m sure everyone knows, right?”
“Then what were the words that came out of Baek Seo-yeon’s mouth just now? “Are you saying you lied?”
“Godmother… . Well, it doesn’t matter if I say it. To be precise, you have played the role of a guardian. But in the end, he quit after a year and made me his successor. “This is the truth.”
The sound of gasping here and there. Hyoeul Lee walked around the conference room and then came back to my side. Then he looked around at everyone and spoke in a higher voice than before.
“This is what I mean. It’s not a lie, but isn’t it just that the tramps were mistaken in the first place? no. Should I say I was caught in a trap? Anyway, he may have originally planned to kill me, but he was looking at the wrong place. “Godmother was sacrificed in my place.”
The word trap came out. Suddenly, I was curious about this part, but it seemed like he had no intention of going into detail, as he immediately changed the topic.
Now, as if I no longer have the energy to be surprised, the sound of my breath that I swallowed earlier comes out here and there. However, the people gathered here were people who would have been sad to be second to none in Hall Plain. I was surprised for a moment. They all immediately came to their senses and began to show serious expressions. It was proof that he was not considering the current situation as absurd, but was looking straight at it.
“There is one thing I don’t understand.”
At that time, I heard the voice of Lord Goryeo that I heard earlier. He was clasping his hands together and staring at Lee Hyo-eul with grave eyes. After receiving her gaze, she nodded once or twice, and Goryeo Rod spoke right away.
“Baek Seo-yeon said she would turn the North Continent into the West Continent, and as the first step, she killed the guardian of the North Continent.”
“That’s accurate.”
“Of course, it is true that they were wrong, but there is a possibility that it came true as is. Maybe that young man… . Wow, sorry. If the Mercenary Lord hadn’t shown up at the right time, you would have ended up dead too. is not it?”
Murmur.
That was correct. Even though his vagabonds didn’t do anything, Lee Hyo-eul was definitely on the verge of death. If I hadn’t treated her, she would have definitely died. In fact, I also assumed that Lee Hyo-eul died in the first episode.
“yes. “But what do you not understand?”
“… Let me just say this first. Your roles and abilities. And I recognize the achievements that have been made so far. “I don’t deny that.”
It was a random comment, but Lord Goryeo was not in a position to say nonsense. Perhaps aware of this, Lee Hyo-eul did not show any significant change in expression and pretended to continue listening.
“I assumed you were dead. Then the Northern Continent would have lost its guardian. Well, the successor is none of my business… . “It is difficult to understand that the Northern Continent will become like the Western Continent simply because of that.”
“… “Hmm.”
“Even though the Golden Lions did something stupid, I still think the Northern Continent’s power is the strongest. The Western Continent and 15,000 vagabonds? Even if all combat users in the east and south were gathered together right now, twice that amount of power would be gathered. But that doesn’t mean we are lacking in quality. “If the situation is like this, are you going to turn the North Continent into a lawless zone just by killing one guardian?”
If you think about it calmly, Lord Goryeo’s words struck a blind spot. Moreover, the people gathered here were each people who had established their own power in Hall Plain. Most people began to show signs of agreement, as if they thought what he was saying was correct.
Soon, everyone’s eyes turned to Lee Hyo-eul. And she had a deep smile like never before.
“Of course, what Lord Goryeo said is correct. It’s not wrong. However, there is one thing that was overlooked.”
“I overlooked something?”
“Baek Seo-yeon said killing the guardian was the first step. So doesn’t that mean he also has a second and third step?”
“… … .”
Lord Goryeo kept his mouth shut, as if he had nothing to say about this. Soon, when Lee Hyo-eul looked at Go Yeon-joo, she reflexively looked at her record and opened her mouth directly toward Baek Seo-yeon.
“So what are your plans after killing Godmother?”
“yes… . First, after capturing Barbara. And after pretending to treat them moderately, I planned to use the warp gate to retreat to the western city and retreat from the northern continent.”
“and?”
“Once we have achieved our intended goal, we decided to settle down on the western continent and wait for the time being. And during the waiting period, spies and spies infiltrated within each clan were planning to promote conflict between the eastern and southern regions as much as possible. First, it causes problems over Barbara’s vacant rights, and the conflict that arose later spreads to the west and north… .”
Baek Seo-yeon’s words continued endlessly, as if she had a lot to say about this. And users who listened to her no longer heard the rumbling noise. He seemed upset by the vagabonds’ plans and the fact that there were spies and spies in the clan.
“liver… concubine?”
“W-what… .”
When I looked up and looked at the reactions, everyone looked so surprised that they had forgotten what to say. Some people asked what kind of nonsense she was saying, but unfortunately, what Baek Seo-yeon said was true.
After the Western Continent users retreated. The dispute between the East and South, which began over the issue of Barbara’s ownership, continued to expand in the future. And previously, the Northern Continent would enter the Spring and Autumn Warring States Period in the first round. It’s not as bad as the Western Continent, but it’s made in a similar way.
“I had a lot of thoughts while listening to Baek Seo-yeon.”
It was the moment when Baek Seo-yeon’s endless chatter ended. Lee Hyo-eul opened her mouth in a quiet voice. And most of the users who listened to her had a sombre look.
The situation when something actually happens and when you know about it before it happens are completely different. When such a situation arises, can the problem be resolved in a peaceful way?
As someone who had already been through the first round, I could confidently answer no. Moreover, isn’t it a situation where we don’t even know who the spy or spy that Baek Seo-yeon was talking about is?
“It’s good to be proud and think you’re the best. But as Lord Goryeo said, don’t you think it’s strange? Literally, if we put our minds to it, we can definitely beat around 15,000 people. At least I won’t lose. “Then why did they come here if they knew that?”
“That’s it… .”
“at last. This means that someone told the tramps about our situation. Spy. Or a spy. “Do you know what I mean?”
“… … !”
Someone opened their mouth in a strained voice, but immediately closed their mouth when they saw me. I had already guessed what decision they had made, but it seemed like I didn’t know yet.
“Anyway, that’s all for now. “The final verification process remains.”
“haha… . Are you saying there’s more left?”
“of course. Baek Seo-yeon is a vagabond who can be seen as a top-ranking official. It may not be everything, but I think I have a general idea of who the spies and spies are. No, he only needs one. Then we can tie them together.”
And the moment Lee Hyo-eul finished speaking, a flash of light could be seen crossing everyone’s faces.
“… … .”
“… … .”
There was silence like that for a while. It was about the time when no one said anything and only their necks were moving.
Unlike before, Lord Goryeo’s slightly tired voice softly rang through the conference room.
“Let’s check that out first, and if it’s true… . “I need to prepare for the correction of truth.”
*
“what? Seunghyun Kim is a tramp? “Isn’t this the guy you accepted from the Golden Lion a while ago?”
“you’re right. “I remember being with you when you announced your withdrawal from the Academy.”
The summons is over. Finally, after Baek Seo-yeon confessed what she knew about the vagabonds, Lee Hyo-eul declared the end of the summons. But still, no one left the conference room. Everyone was clinging to Go Yeon-ju and Baek Seo-yeon, checking the list she was talking about again.
“Merchionary Road.”
Then, I hear a familiar voice calling me. When I turned my head, I realized it was approaching. I could see Han So-young standing aloof slightly behind me. She seemed to look at my face for a moment and then she parted her pretty lips.
“Thank you for your hard work.”
“What about the hardships? “I haven’t done much.”
“Nobody thinks that way. Maybe if it weren’t for Mercantile Lord… . “Maybe it really happened as that tramp said.”
Hearing the word “maybe,” it seemed like Han So-young was still in a daze. In fact, they were outcasts who were active within the clan, avoiding the eyes of users. I didn’t even know that fact, and it was absurd for even Han So-young to predict what they would do in the future.
I smiled bitterly and nodded.
“okay. “From what I heard earlier, it seemed like vagabonds didn’t infiltrate Istantel Row.”
“yes. It’s a blessing in disguise. The situation seems to be different for other clans… .”
Han So-young crossed her arms under her chest to make her voluptuous figure stand out even more, then sighed lightly and lowered her eyes. She then quietly opened her mouth.
“Merchantry Lord. If you have time, let’s talk for a moment… .”
“Suhyeon.”
It was then. From behind, my brother’s voice flowed into my ears this time.
—————————= Review of the work ——————– ——-=
The summons part is over. It feels like it was finished in a bit of a hurry, but the scene where the list of names is called was omitted. haha. This will be mentioned later, so there is no need to repeat it unnecessarily. It seems like there are a lot of very dark stories coming out these days. As I said, I’m going to take some time to relax and clean up afterward. And after that, we will teach foreigners the dignity of Korean gamers… . Oops. Hmm.
Monday has passed! It was very difficult at first when the semester started, but I’m slowly getting used to it and I feel stronger these days! It seems like people need to live busy lives. ha ha ha. ah. And someone sent a message. Please tell me honestly about your work. Of course, I have my own ideas, but your comments are the best measure of whether I am going in a good direction. 🙂
