The Return of Apocalypses Tyrant

Episode 34

“You… how do you know that?”

Park Hyo-joo asked him with a pale face after hearing Namgung’s words.

“You shouldn’t think that the National Intelligence Service is the only place in the world that digs up other people’s information. At the very least, city government thugs also set up a crime report office and look for people on their behalf.”

“Indeed… you are worthy of being the leader of Unit 711. They’re gone now, but I heard they were the best team in the past. “They were the top in Korea not only in tactics but also in information warfare, right?”

Park Hyo-joo looked at Namgung.

“If 711 is still considered the pinnacle of special forces, it would mean that the remaining members are not that special. Are you admitting that you are not the best?”

“no. That’s…”

“Don’t try to convince yourself with excuses, right?”

Park Hyo-joo bit her lip without any response to Namgung’s cold-hearted words.

“All right. In that case, I will now treat you as a civilian, not as the leader of my former unit.”

But as if she couldn’t lose, she spoke to Namgung.

“Unlike us who act under the orders of the government, it is not very honorable for a civilian to investigate someone else’s background, but you are saying it so casually. Selling someone else’s new product is not something to be proud of, is it?”

“National Intelligence Service agents are so funny. “They mistakenly believe that they are a person shrouded in mystery, as if they are some kind of protagonist.”

“What is that….”

“If you had checked the CCTV in Yeouido, you would have known that I was with other people besides Kang Ho-jun and Choi Myung-hoon.”

Namgung spoke as if he had been waiting.

“You probably know that Tae-ho Jeon and his son, Gyeong-in Jeon, were there.”

“….”

“I heard Jeon Tae-ho and your father, Minister Park, have been close friends since childhood, right? “I heard we had similar names, so we were like brothers.”

Park Hyo-joo could not refute his words.

“This is what I heard from a former player. “When the list of survivors at the National Assembly building was on the news, Minister Park’s story came up, and even the fact that his daughter-in-law is now with the National Intelligence Service.”

Actually, what I heard from Jeon Tae-ho was a lie.

The information about Park Hyo-joo was not something I heard from Jeon Tae-ho, but something I heard directly from the person concerned in a past life.

‘She’s not a revealer, and there’s no way she would understand even if I told her about regression…’

Namgung used the information he remembered to reveal her identity as naturally as possible.

‘There is no way Seo Jae-wook doesn’t know that Park Hyo-joo is Park Dae-ho’s daughter.’

The reason he said here that the two were a father-daughter relationship was because of Park Hyo-joo, not Seo Jae-wook.

‘It is highly likely that Park Hyo-joo knows Minister Park Dae-ho’s intentions.’

It was actually a warning.

This is a warning delivered to Dae-ho Park through Hyo-joo Park.

“It’s an interesting conversation, but… I don’t think it’s something we should discuss in front of the Prime Minister.”

It was then.

The Chief of Staff next to Seo Jae-wook cleared his throat and interrupted the conversation between the two people.

“How about having a private conversation separately?”

“…sorry.”

Park Hyo-joo then hurriedly stepped back with an expression of regret.

“Could you please consider it for once? “Now that the president has lost the focal point, the people are in confusion and fear.”

Seo Jae-wook looked at Namgoong.

“Suddenly created portals, strange monsters, a clan of agents called Yashas, and various tools in their bundle… People don’t know how to use them or what to do with them. “So do I.”

Actually, what he said was not wrong.

In order to reduce this confusion and lead people, there was a being called a revealer.

The Revelators create their own force and divide the world anew, going beyond the concept of nation-state.

‘The appearance of the Gates of Hell means that the existing order of allies and allies will all disappear.’

When order is broken, chaos follows.

Perhaps, in the future of Hell, a world where the might of the jungle is the rule, the existence of the government may be nothing more than a meaningless and unnecessary obstacle.

“Do you want me to lead the way?”

Namgung looked at Seo Jae-wook and asked in a cold voice.

“of course. “I think Captain Nam is the person who is at the forefront of this situation more than anyone else.”

Seo Jae-wook looked at him with a slightly hopeful face as his answer was different from before.

“In that case, instead of trying to use me by labeling me as team leader, please give me your position.”

“It’s all you…!”

“What do you mean by that!!”

Namgung still vividly saw the destroyed and collapsed scenery of Seoul from his past, or rather, the future of his previous life.

He knew very well that what he said was nonsense.

Nevertheless, there was a reason for deliberately pushing it.

“If we can overcome this situation, we can. “I am not a person who is greedy for positions.”

“Prime Minister!!”

“This is nonsense!”

Everyone was shocked by Seo Jae-wook’s words. But to some extent, Namgung expected him to say such a thing.

‘I can’t give it away anyway, and I have no intention of giving it away.’

Just thought I needed to check.

Namgung It was something he had thought about countless times, but it was something they had to have from now on.

‘To survive…’

determination.

Even if it’s just words, there’s definitely a difference between just thinking about it and saying it out loud.

“What will you do if you give me that position? “As a civilian, not a member of the National Assembly.”

“I will have to fight to survive.”

“That’s it. Don’t stay behind. Protecting is not just about crouching down. Sometimes offense can be your best defense.”

At that moment, Seo Jae-wook smiled bitterly.

“…I was taught by you.”

The Prime Minister nodded at his words.

If he had accepted his offer to fight for his country, Seo Jae-wook would still have stayed there.

‘If you want to become strong in this world, there is something more important than doing politics.’

It’s about making yourself stronger.

To do so, everyone, regardless of age or gender, must jump into the battlefield.

You can never survive with the head you get automatically after killing the world boss.

‘The reason Park Dae-ho came to power after Seo Jae-wook’s death was because he was strong.’

Unlike other officials, he directly commanded the army and fought against monsters pouring from the gates of hell.

As a natural result, no one could stop him as he gained more heads than anyone else in Congress.

‘There were many unclear details about the Prime Minister’s death, but regardless, it was entirely possible even if Park Dae-ho had tried to take power by force.’

Minister of National Defense Park Dae-ho was a powerful hunter who even possessed rare-grade weapons before his death.

In order to keep them in check and to protect himself, Seo Jae-wook must not only engage in politics but also fight directly on the front lines.

“Be a leader, not an agent. “If I get your support, I’ll think about it then.”

“Haha….”

When the tension was relieved, the Prime Minister loosened the tie that had been tightening his neck and sat down on a chair.

“I look forward to the day we meet again.”

“Me too.”

Namgung and the Prime Minister looked at each other and answered.

* * *

Click –

The door to the reception room closed, leaving only the two people in the hallway.

“…I’ll take you home.”

Park Hyo-joo spoke to Namgung with a stern expression.

In the silence where only the sound of footsteps could be heard walking down the hallway, she finally seemed to be unable to bear it anymore and asked Namgung.

“What did you mean by what you said to me a moment ago?”

“What are you talking about?”

“Are you asking what I am fighting for? By the person in power… are you referring to my father?”

“I guess it depends on what you think. I didn’t refer to anyone. There must be a reason why you thought of that person first. is not it?”

“….”

As I was passing through the hallway, there were framed frames depicting the changes from the days of the Central Intelligence Agency to the current National Intelligence Service.

[We work in the dark and aim for the bright.]

[Information is the power of the nation.]

[Anonymous dedication to freedom and truth]

[For the silent defense and glory of the Republic of Korea.]

Park Hyo-joo has never doubted once. Those words that I had never seen before somehow pierced my heart at this moment.

“What should I do if there is an enemy I cannot defeat?”

She asked the moment she stood in front of the elevator.

Somehow, I felt a different energy in her voice than before.

‘As expected… it seems like he knows Park Dae-ho’s intentions.’

There is no way Park Dae-ho knew that the National Assembly building would collapse and the president and other lawmakers would die.

It’s just that she knows very well that her father is full of ambition.

‘If Prime Minister Seo Jae-wook disappears, he will be the next candidate.’

In my past life, a team dedicated to monsters was formed only after the Prime Minister died.

Perhaps Park Hyo-joo suspected that his father might have killed him.

‘Maybe I hunted monsters harder because I felt guilty about that.’

The truth is no one knows.

Namgoong just threw a move to try to figure out Park Hyo-joo’s feelings.

“There is no enemy that cannot be defeated.”

Namgung answered her in a calm voice.

“I’m just weak.”

“….”

“I already told the Prime Minister the answer. “If I want to protect you, I have to become stronger first.”

“But it doesn’t work if you try alone.”

“If it were a normal world, yes.”

“…yes?”

“This is not a world where the common sense we used to know applies. An individual can do more than you think. “Numbers are no more important than a swarm of ants can defeat an elephant.”

Namgung told her.

“You too. The way I used the dagger a little while ago. It won’t be anything ordinary. After the first gate of hell, quick people realize their qualities.” She

flinched –

her shoulders trembled slightly at Namgung’s words, which saw right through her.

“Telekinetic power. Right?”

“…You are correct.”

“But not everyone becomes strong just because they realize their qualities. “If you’re curious about the method, come to Majang-dong this evening.”

“…Majang-dong?”

Before I knew it, dawn was breaking outside the window.

“It’s the most unique place in Seoul. “Soon, it will become the only place even monsters fear.”

“What is that….”

“The person in Seoul who is best at wielding a knife is neither the National Intelligence Service nor the Special Forces.”

Even though he woke up without sleep, Namgung somehow did not feel tired.

Namgung looked with expectant eyes.

‘He must have realized his qualities by now… so it would be better to let Park Hyo-joo meet him.’

From hunting monsters to dismantling them.

It may sound funny, but the alliance formed around the deboning technicians at the Majang-dong livestock market was a powerful and hegemonic force that could not be compared to any other clan.

And there is one person who led them.

“Jang Gil-su, Chairman of Majang-dong Livestock Association.”

People called him this.

The King of Gluttony.
