Episode 264:
Two pairs of red eyes.
It is said that Yoo Ah-young has become stronger.
In front of Taehyun, he is only an imperfect force.
Let the red eyes twitch for a moment.
dump.
Her body fell limp.
‘I was caught properly.’
The ‘Ataraxia’ that Taehyun used a little while ago did not control its power like when training Ji Jin-hee and others.
Even though it wasn’t electric power.
SS grade monster.
Or, it was used as seriously as when used against SS+ grade monsters.
Yoo Ah-young, who was using Rosaria’s power, had already reached a point where it was no longer possible to deal with him seriously.
“At this level, you seem to have better compatibility than me.”
Taehyun clicked his tongue as he said that.
No matter how good the compatibility is, it is ultimately the power of the Archduke.
The risk of suddenly gaining enormous power could not have been light.
I hope Yoo Ah-young overcomes it as well as I do.
It seemed like a more fundamental way to control power was needed.
‘It’ll be okay for the time being, but… I’ll have to do whatever it takes.’
For a moment, Taehyun was looking down at Yoo Ah-young.
Jiing.
The door to the training room opened.
The one who came in was Jeong Han-su.
He was waiting outside for the battle between Taehyun and Ayoung to end.
“Are you finished?”
“It’s done.”
“Hehe… thank you for your hard work.”
Jeong Han-su’s expression was dark as he said that.
Of course.
I also contacted Taehyun first when he returned from Japan.
This is because he was the one who asked everyone to deal with his guild leader Yoo Ah-young.
“no.”
‘What trouble?’
Taehyun said casually and shook his head.
In fact, the reason Ayoung became like this was because she brought her into contact with Rosaria.
Moreover, it was Taehyun who told Yoo Ah-young to let him know if there were any changes.
On the contrary, I am thankful that Jeong Han-soo made the best choice.
“Could it be that Kasim Zort did something to the guild leader…?”
Taehyun shook his head at Jeong Hansoo’s guess.
“Probably not.”
Jeong Han-soo suspects that A-young’s madness went away after meeting Kassim Jort.
Taehyun thought differently.
‘It will be activated when life is in danger.’
Just like you did.
However, it was impossible to tell Jeong Han-su that Yoo Ah-young had accepted the power of the Archduke.
‘Insanity is a type of personality that appears as a side effect. There must be a way to control it.’
Perhaps another anti-aircraft contractor might have the answer more than he does.
Whether you meet Cody Cruise or not.
Please find Asisat Ebi as soon as possible.
‘I need to move quickly.’
Jeong Han-soo, who is worried about Tae-hyun, thinks that Yoo Ah-young’s mind and body are in a transitional stage of growth.
So, he said that he would help him until then.
Jeong Han-soo’s expression widened.
He is a night walker who is already busy with work.
I was just grateful that Taehyun said this first.
“We will welcome Taehyun as Night Walker’s VVVIP.”
“It was nothing.”
After a while.
Healers from Night Walker, who had been called by Jeong Han-soo, entered the training room.
They took turns looking at Jeong Han-soo, Tae-hyeon, and their unconscious guild leader.
“It was quite hard training. “I hope you get good treatment.”
“Oh, I understand.”
After hearing Taehyun’s words, they immediately understood the situation and took Yoo Ah-young out.
Taehyun put on the jacket he had left aside.
Yoo Ah-young’s treatment was just a brief stopover before heading to the association.
From now on, it was time to work towards this goal.
“The vice guild leader should participate in this meeting.”
“The warp gate to the association is already ready.”
“That’s right. “It went well.”
If you use the ‘Apostle of the Gate’, you can reach the Association in an instant.
but.
‘There’s no need to waste fatigue.’
Taehyun followed Jeong Hansoo and walked to the warp gate zone.
* * *
Nine people gathered in a special conference room located in the association building.
Ji Jin-hee, president of the association.
Ko Tae-wook, Acting President of the Association and Director of the Future Strategy Office.
Park Seong-jin, head of the association’s special team.
Lim A-young, leader of the association’s special team 1.
Onsaemiro guild leader Kwon Kang-hyuk.
Kwak Si-yang, leader of the Magicians Guild.
Alchemist Guild Leader Seo Sang-ik.
Night Walker Deputy Guild Leader Jeong Han-su.
Kim Tae-hyeon, a player belonging to the association.
All of them had S-level player licenses or higher and were key players in the association that President Ji Jin-hee trusted.
A world conference led by New Korea.
Before that, it was an event created to reach a final agreement with the major powers of the new Korea.
“Thank you for gathering with us despite your busy schedule.”
The extraordinary meeting began with Ji Jin-hee’s greetings.
“Guild leader. How is the mass production of the vaccine going?”
Ji Jin-hee has already been informed and knows this.
Nevertheless, there was a need to share information for a smoother meeting.
Seo Sang-ik’s report, who understood Ji Jin-hee’s thoughts, followed.
“We signed contracts with ten domestic pharmaceutical companies. In addition, I spoke with the Director of the Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency to establish a vaccine research center in the location created when Taesan Group relocated.”
“Good. “I will also talk to the ministers about that.”
Ji Jin-hee repeatedly expressed her gratitude to Seo Sang-ik.
Seo Sang-ik waved both hands as if he felt burdened.
“no. It’s all thanks to player Kim Tae-hyun. “If it weren’t for the help of player Kim Tae-hyun, the vaccine development would not have been successful within this year.”
Seo Sang-ik gave credit to Tae-hyeon.
In fact, if it were not for the magic power that Taehyun provided periodically, it would have been difficult to keep up with the variability of the gray disease.
The purple magic power used by Taehyun.
That power was of overwhelming value in disease research.
“no. This is thanks to the Alchemist and the association’s efforts in research.”
Taehyun secretly gave credit to the two people.
“It is clear that heaven has helped you just because you are in New Korea.”
Ji Jin-hee looked at Tae-hyeon with a happy face.
“Sit that busy person down and stop talking about things that are unfamiliar. “Let’s get started quickly.”
Kwon Kang-hyuk said, rubbing his body as if he was growing fat.
“Then let’s get back to the main topic. Manager Go. “Please.”
Ko Tae-wook nodded at Ji Jin-hee’s words.
“Ten countries decided to send missions.”
When Go Tae-wook touched, ten national flags appeared on the screen in front.
Countries that proposed alliances with New Korea to receive mass-produced vaccines.
Among them, ten countries were selected taking into account various requirements.
USA UK France Germany Russia Japan Taiwan India Australia Spain.
Although words will be exchanged once again at the upcoming world conference, it was the country selected internally as the top priority for vaccine distribution.
“As expected, China is not participating.”
Ji Jin-hee frowned and said.
It’s not like it used to be though.
New Korea, Japan, and China are called the Three Dragons of Asia and maintain a three-power system.
Even though the gray disease needs to be ended as soon as possible, China has expressed its disapproval and announced that it will not participate in this meeting.
The background was that they were suspected of being behind the gray disease and that if they participated in a meeting led by New Korea, the image of a great country that had been built could be damaged.
“Politics even when people’s lives are at stake… I’m disgusted.”
Ji Jin-hee said as if she was genuinely annoyed.
The most populous countries in Asia are India and China.
Since the gray disease is most common, these are the two places where the vaccine should be delivered first.
China is busy hiding this while showing off its pride.
There was a palliative from Taesan Pharmaceutical, but it didn’t look very good.
“Let’s not give it away unnecessarily even though we don’t need it.”
Kwon Kang-hyuk grumbled and joined in.
This is because I don’t understand Ji Jin-hee, who cares so much about the lives of other countries.
“I understand the association president’s feelings.”
“why?”
Kwak Si-yang looked troubled by Kwon Kang-hyuk’s question.
“Currently, the only country that has developed a vaccine is New Korea. If such a valuable vaccine is released without any agreement, a global depression will occur. “The president of the association wants to avoid such a situation.”
“We are bringing world powers into the new Korea. That alone would be notarized. “You can also get justification for exterminating the demons.”
Seongjin Park intervened.
“I like my sister and my brother-in-law. Eat pheasant and eat its eggs. “It’s like killing two birds with one stone.”
Seo Sang-ik intervened.
“You probably didn’t know… right?”
Kwak Si-yang asked once again.
“….”
Kwon Kang-hyuk is silent for a moment.
“joy!! “Why are you making such a fuss about how great things are when they attack you like that?!!”
Kwon Kang-hyuk became excited and raised his voice.
The topic turned to confident horsemen.
They killed three top S-class mines during the previous attack.
Is that all?
Yoo Ah-young once again defeated Kassim Jort.
As a result, the World Players Association even issued SS-class licenses to Ji Jin-hee, Park Seong-jin, Kwon Kang-hyuk, Kwak Si-yang, Lim A-young, and Yoo Ah-young in order to discourage the players.
There was a simple measurement procedure.
Compared to previous times, it was clearly an unconventional appointment ceremony.
There are only 7 SS grade players.
The power of the new Korea is stronger than ever.
“That too… is a situation I have in mind.”
Kwak Si-yang once again looked troubled.
I never thought Kwon Kang-hyuk would have such a pure brain.
“What what…?”
Taehyun intervened as Kwon Kang-hyuk looked embarrassed.
“The best forces will gather in New Korea, but the Mainers will not want the vaccine to be mass-produced.”
So what.
What about that?
Everyone was speechless at Kwon Kang-hyuk’s simple appearance.
What should I say to convince such a simple man?
Taehyun, who had been quiet at that time, spoke.
“This world conference. There will definitely be a big attack.”
“Fuck…” Kwon Kang
-hyuk cursed as the situation was more complicated than expected.
3 days until the world conference.
New Korea was in full swing preparing to welcome delegations from each country.
* * *
Unlike preparatory work.
New Korea, which hosts the world conference, was in a festive mood.
Among many other countries, it developed a vaccine and prevented the infamous Har-Sultan raid.
Is that all?
Taehyun Kim, a player from his country, even blocked the first SSS-level gate break.
The status of the new Korea has risen to an unbelievable level compared to its size.
The pride of 80 million people was bound to increase naturally.
There is no way the government would ignore such an important incident.
Five broadcasting stations organized live broadcasts under the leadership of the government.
From the arrival of the delegation visiting the association for the world conference to what will happen after the conference.
It was decided to broadcast it all live.
Ji Jin-hee, who usually has a strong distrust of the government, also did not refuse.
This is to raise the morale of the people who have fallen due to gray diseases and the terror of demons.
Of course, we did not forget to receive huge investment from the government.
“Alvaro Mata Player, representative of the Spanish delegation, is coming in!!”
“Yoshikawa Tsurara, who is called a saint of Japan, greets Kim Tae-hyun!!”
“He is one of the heroes who recently blocked an SSS-level gate break with player Kim Tae-hyun. “Once again, I would like to offer my condolences to the victims’ families.”
“The representative of the Taiwanese delegation exchanges greetings with Association President Ji Jin-hee.”
“Ah, an American delegation is coming in. Cody Cruz is representing the association on behalf of Association President Kevin Lee. “He is the best player who was ranked number one in the world until not long ago.”
“Ah, Cody Cruz approaches Taehyun Kim. “It is a heartwarming meeting between the former world number one and the current world number one.”
As he said, Cody Cruz approached Taehyun and exchanged a few words.
“Ah… it really looks nice. “It’s like looking at a miniature version of the new Korea-US alliance.”
The reporter who made such political remarks continued belatedly.
“Of course, New Korea has a good relationship with Japan and needs to maintain a better relationship with China.”
This is when a reporter starts talking gibberish to make up for his or her mistakes.
“hmm…?”
In his field of vision and on the station’s cameras, he could see Cody Cruz raising his hand.
The raised hand was curled and clenched into a fist.
The fist was swung at Taehyun.
Kwasik!!
Taehyun caught the fist with an eerie sound.
“Huh…I’m crazy…!!”
“Why did Cody Cruz date Kim Tae-hyun…!!”
“Zoom in on the camera!!”
Without paying attention to the surroundings that were starting to get agitated.
“You’ve gotten a lot rougher since I haven’t seen you, Cody.”
Taehyun said with a kind smile.
