Cold World (2)
Even the value of the king’s name was not important in the face of the final operation that risked the existence of humanity.
‘The practitioners needed to open the flower garden are Fleur Dante and I.’
That’s why we got the 100 choices.
“All I can give you is one hour. “Please select 100 people from among them.”
Many thoughts crossed my mind.
The king, politician, doctor, teacher and family were poor people who lived alienated from society.
In the end, it was the same weight.
“The president of the association, please start first.” When no one took action, Iruki put down his pen and held it out.
“The total army of Valkyries.”
Lufist tilted his upper body and crossed his legs.
“It is no exaggeration to say that you are at the top of the sky, but you look down on people.”
Iruki was calm.
“What do you mean?”
“It means there is no need for me to step forward. “I’ll leave the judgment to this friend.”
When Lupist pointed at Dante, Fleur and Iruki’s gaze turned to the side.
Dante, who was lost in thought, looked up and said.
“Iruki, honestly, I feel bad.” No answer was heard.
“good. “I have no choice but to make a difficult decision since I have received instructions from the president of the association.”
Contrary to what he said, Dante didn’t even glance at the pen and opened his arms.
“There are people who need to be saved.”
A smile finally appeared on Iruki’s face
.
“Drop a bomb on the capital. It will be a massacre where 6.5 million people will die. If I save 100 people, the information will be passed on to 1,000 people, and those 1,000 people will be reduced to 10,000…
The operation will fail.
“It will be heading into uncontrollable territory. “You were testing whether we were prepared to destroy the capital or not?”
Everyone must die.
No one can survive in Bashka, not even those who are precious or those who are needed.
“that’s right. sorry.”
Dante snorted.
“Single-minded people like you are such childish tricks. “It looks like you’re pretty much backed into a corner.”
“If I’m telling the truth, yes. Because I will be the instigator of this crazy massacre. “If I’m going to go down in history as a devil, I don’t want to fail at least.”
Knowing what Iruki was carrying, Dante didn’t question it any further.
“Anyway, is there really no security problem? “If it’s a project of this scale, we won’t be the only ones who know.”
“It’s at a dangerous level.”
Iruki admitted obediently.
“As you may have already guessed, not everyone dies. The life of the person in charge of the conglomerate-related organization that invested a large amount of money in this project is guaranteed. “At least the target person’s children will be saved.”
“He’s a child. That’s ambiguous. “If you were in the husband’s position, you could save your wife and children, but you couldn’t save your parents, right?”
“They are not stupid enough to be greedy. “They know better what happens if that happens.”
Even mice and birds would disappear without anyone noticing.
“Should I say I’m fortunate? “We organized an assassination squad just in case, but we haven’t made any moves yet.”
Iruki raised his index finger.
“Rather, those who needed special surveillance were unmarried people. “Some people got married in a hurry to save their lovers, but the temple tolerated that as well.” Lupist asked.
“How many people were involved in that way?”
“286 people.”
Dante rested his chin and muttered.
“286 people.”
As an expert in security and information, it was a number that could never be controlled.
Iruki said.
“I know what you’re thinking. So we are also keeping an eye on it through numerous channels. “One of them is said to be the best censorship system in the world.”
‘Mayray.’
Dante knew through Armin that the ear of the Great Purifier was in the temple.
“We are under surveillance 24 hours a day. And the number of cases that have been caught in the temple’s filter so far is…”
Iruki smiled bitterly.
“There wasn’t a single one.”
“Not even one?”
“okay. They couldn’t even find the code zero, or obsessive suspicion, factor. Therefore, from the temple’s perspective, we can confidently say that none of the 286 survivors leaked information.”
“haha. “Kkkkkk.”
Lufist shrugged his shoulders and lowered his head.
“It’s perfect.”
Usually, I’m anxious to reveal even the smallest secret.
‘Ahead of the terrible incident in which 6.5 million people are massacred…
no one speaks.
They are acting out their daily lives in front of their parents and friends, pretending like nothing is wrong.
‘Ah, human being.’ It was hard to tell whether Lupist’s expression, with the corners of his mouth torn, was smiling or crying.
“great.”
The expression disappeared as if it were a lie.
“We are not in a different position from them. The conclusion is that 6.5 million people will die. “The problem is efficiency relative to sacrifice. Can the demons be definitely annihilated?”
“By my calculations, if the strategy worked, Hell’s army would suffer a 91.3 percent loss.”
It was a sufficient achievement.
“great. Then, all you have to do is discard Bashka and elect a new king… but for Lupist, even the king was just a top-of-the-line accessory to run the system called the nation.
“How will you make up for Tormia’s losses after the war? “If the capital has been blown away, self-recovery will be impossible.”
It will be eaten by other countries in an instant.
“The temple will cover all restoration costs. Once the government is established, implement an immigration policy. “If you provide houses and land, many people will come.”
Lufist narrowed one eye.
“It sounds like a dream. Even if it is a holy war, funds
will ultimately have to be raised from other countries. Do you think the heads of each country will obediently follow?”
“In addition, I will hand over all technology and data related to elemental bombs to Tormia.”
Lufist’s eyes flashed for a moment.
“Even if it is a related industry, only I know the original technology. It can be used to keep other countries in check, or it can be used as a bargaining chip. Above all, I am from the Kingdom of Tormia. “I will not allow my country to be destroyed.”
The last words moved Lupist.
‘Actually, the 6.5 million includes Iruki’s family.’
If he wasn’t crazy, he would have sold his soul before he died to take responsibility.
“great. We follow the will of the temple. “Once the detailed strategy is delivered, I will hand over all rights to use the flower garden.”
Iruki turned his head to Dante.
“Time is running out for oral sex. I will deliver it through ‘Rope’. Dante is in charge, so it’s the safest method.”
Lufist nodded and stood up, and Fleur and Dante followed behind and headed toward the door.
Dante turned around at the door.
“What if we wrote down 100 people and submitted them?”
“…I wouldn’t have been able to get out alive.”
“In short, I was looking down on him quite a bit. “Do you think it would have been possible?” Iruki avoided answering like a snake
.
“You didn’t write it down anyway.”
Dante burst out laughing.
I felt like a psychopath who could laugh even after hearing about Baska’s terrible future.
Although it is that unrealistic.
‘Iruki, it must be reality for you.’
The face of Iruki that Dante was looking at no longer belonged to a living person.
‘He was an unlucky guy.’
The guy who had been bothering me since my time at the Royal Academy of Magic was now half-corpse.
“Take care of yourself. And then you really die.”
Hearing that he couldn’t answer yes, Eruki just smiled helplessly.
“Dante.”
Dante turned around again at the sound of a calling voice.
“huh?”
“When the war is over…
Iruki’s eyes look so lonely that he is wary of even saying a word.
“Let’s have a drink together.”
Dante was filled with tears, even though he felt his throat being locked.
“??????okay.”
I had no choice but to answer.
In order not to be noticed, Dante immediately opened the door and left the room.
‘You idiot! ‘What kind of hero are you?’
As Dante quickly moved away, Fleur naturally caught up with his strides.
‘Now the battlefield has been moved to Tormia. The association will be at the forefront. ‘We need to figure out what’s going on in Zion.’
But the thought read the emotions in Dante’s eyes for a moment and kept his mouth shut.
‘He’s a rational person… but it was a huge anger.
‘Damn it! Demons like dogs! ‘Kill them all!’ Fleur, who discovered blood flowing from Dante’s fist, did not ask anything in the end.
Hideout of the flower tribe.
Lupist made some sort of deal with Flalino in exchange for seeds of fresh flowers.
They rescued 300 of their fellow countrymen suffering from all over the world and provided them with a safe home.
Flarino, who was once the Minister of Defense of the Spectrum, was now living as an ordinary Chinese woman.
“Hello, Mr. Flarino.”
The man of Grass blood looked at Flarino and lowered his head with a simple smile.
“Yes, good morning.”
Violet Tiara’s lineage, said to be the most beautiful and fragrant among the Hwa clan, shined even brighter under the sun.
“The sunshine is really sweet today. On days like this, the best thing to do is go to the ‘garden’ and sit still.” Flarino covered his mouth and laughed.
“that’s right. There’s nothing better than soaking in the sunlight without thinking about anything. Would you like to go with me?”
“Haha, of course.”
Flarino spread his arms, looking at the sunlight coming through the tree branches.
“I love it here. “No one wants to harm us, and most of all, it’s quiet.”
“It’s all thanks to Mr. Flarino. “Everyone here is grateful.”
“Oh no. Me too…
Flarino’s pupils, who were waving their hands, shook when they saw the person approaching from afar.
“Why are you doing that?”
Where Flarino’s eyes turned, he saw Lou Fist and Dante walking side by side.
“Lupist…
Flarino’s body trembled.
“There you are. “It just worked out well.”
Rufist, who approached Flalino with great strides, was blunt and got to the point.
“Where is your chief? “Guide me.”
The deal has already been concluded and Lupist has promised not to get involved in the lives of the Hwa people.
“What’s going on?”
“I don’t have time to talk. It’s an emergency. “We need to use some of Small World Changyu’s abilities.”
Flarino shouted.
“You promised! You even handed over all the fresh flower seeds! “We just want to be in peace!”
“peace?”
Lupiste grabbed Flalino by the collar and pulled him hard, pushing his face up.
“Look at me. “Look straight into my eyes.”
The Chinese man hit his butt with a thud, and Flarino’s chin trembled.
“Do I look sane right now? What do you think came here? “Do you all want to sleep?”
“Huh… Hmm…
Her mind went blank as the ‘extreme passivity’, a characteristic of the Hwa people, appeared.
‘How can they have eyes like this?’
It was the look in the eyes of an animal that could do anything to achieve what it wanted.
“It’s your last chance. Take me to the chieftain.” Flarino’s head dropped listlessly.
“??????yes.” If you ask her
what the scariest thing in the world is,
her answer is definitely humans.
