Chapter 337: Aftereffect (3)
I had to admit that I felt a bit guilty, but I couldn’t wait to see the forces of darkness run wild.
As there wasn’t much I could do right now, I thought giving heavy homework to the lovely returner was the most beautiful way to do it, and it had worked perfectly.
This was because, after the conversation about the brigade and Jin Qing trash was over, I was feeling that he had been moving a little more actively. It was obvious what Kim Hyunsung, who had a lot in his mind, picked as his top priority.
‘I think it would be better to attach Cho Hyejin to Jung Hayan.’
Naturally, it was a protective measure for Jung Hayan. If the masked trash Jin Qing had a negative effect on Jung Hayan like in the first round, it was not enough to say that it was a reasonable judgment.
The brigade may be watching for opportunities anytime, anywhere. In that sense, it would be the best option to attach Cho Hyejin to Jung Hayan.
First, Hyunsung was also working on internal affairs while remaining in Laios.
Jung Hayan and I were also recovering from this place right now, so I wondered if the reason he didn’t go around was just to take care of us. However, I knew that that wouldn’t be the only reason for this.
‘Maybe he’s thinking hard…’
He had a feeling that the masked piece of sh*t was really Jin Qing.
Naturally, he would want to take some action, but Kim Hyunsung was also not all-around. He couldn’t do everything just because he wanted to.
Currently, the masked Jin Qing was under the protection of the Republic, and the dirty brigade was holding his breath somewhere out of my gaze. After invading the Republic’s main headquarters, there was no way to assassinate masked trash Jin Qing or capture brigade members when we didn’t even know where they were.
No matter how strong Kim Hyunsung was, there were limits to what an individual could do.
Of course, his advantage was that his range was very wide, but doing a Republic’s solo play was quite close to suicide.
As the situation was like this, Kim Hyunsung was also nervous. What was a little surprising was that he was showing a surprisingly calm appearance.
I didn’t know whether he had grown in his own way, or remembered being backstabbed by the masked trash Jin Qing in the first round, but he was showing a satisfactory move.
‘Very good.’
It was hard to say that this was a dramatic sudden development or reversal, but what the lovely returner had chosen was to focus a little more on this situation that currently surrounded Laios. Not only did he take the initiative to form the Three Kingdoms alliance, but he also focused his efforts on the unity of the foreigners in the State.
Those who ran medium-sized guilds flew in and out of the Laios several times a day, and he held the Eight Seats of the State conference directly while moving to rally the foreigners staying in the confederation.
Our Hyunsung had indeed changed!
He thought that it was right to slowly take care of the immediate tasks rather than find results by running around busily.
‘My tears want to come out of your growth…’
In the past, he probably might have left for the Republic on his own, and only after the situation came to an end would he come back to help.
I didn’t know if someone who was not good with words like him could rally many forces, but the attempt itself was beautiful enough. Of course, the important thing was its purpose and justification, and yet…
‘That’s too obvious.’
It was a move to perhaps prepare for an enemy, or put some pressure on the Republic side.
I thought it wasn’t too bad if war broke out, but Kim Hyunsung seemed to want to separate Jin Qing and the Republic. Of course, there was a high possibility that this would not flow the way Kim Hyunsung wanted it to.
If there was a move from the State’s trilateral alliance, there might be a move from the Republic side as well. It was even more so if the Republic side did not intend to abandon Jin Qing.
If the current Republic was completely contaminated with black magic and brigade, it might be thinking of backstabbing.
Since I was not currently in the field, I couldn’t figure out exactly how things were going, but I could feel the atmosphere as strange as Lee Jihye had said.
Of course, I wasn’t the only one who had felt the strange atmosphere. It was slightly different, but Park Deokgu, who played a big role, was also showing quite an anxiety.
Whether it was stimulated by Kim Hyunsung’s talk about the brigade, he always took a longer training time. As Guild Master and Park Deokgu, who could be said to be the guild’s main axis, showed themselves off in this manner, it was natural that the minds of the guild members staying in Laios also changed.
As a result, the heroes of light, except for Park Deokgu, were the only ones comfortable in the guild.
Jung Hayan was having a great time day by day, and Han Sora finally got a separate room, so she couldn’t help but cheer.
It was no wonder that in a moment of peace, I did the things I had to do, too.
Spending time with Tol To-ri, Max and Dialugia was the most important thing among them. It wasn’t that long, but Tol To-ri and Dialugia seemed satisfied in their own way, and Max was the same.
Not only taking care of the family, but also taking care of myself was very obvious. I even went into research to get a closer look at the class ‘Alchemist of the Light’, but there had been no great achievement.
This was not unreasonable because the research base was all in Lindel. I hadn’t been off that long of a period, but I was definitely having ants in my pants.
After spending enough secluded time to satisfy Kim Hyunsung, Oscar, Pristina, and the other guild members, I expressed my opinion that I was okay now and received a confirmation from the medical staff that it wouldn’t be bad to return.
There was no doubt that it was not bad for the timing to return when the three-nation alliance of the elves, Laios, and the State had been formed.
[Eberia’s Princess of the Elven Kingdom, Elena, visits Laios.]
[The news that Princess Elena of Eberia, the elven kingdom of the veil, is visiting Laios, is drawing great attention. It was already well-known news that the Eberian delegation would come to Laios, but it is speculated that Princess Elena’s presence in the delegation may be an unconventional personnel reshuffle.]
[Eberia, which has long refrained from exchanges with other countries due to the issue of elven slavery or discrimination against different races, has been able to show such a radical move, and it is not difficult for everyone to guess why. According to Princess Elena’s aide, it is said that she received a lot of inspiration from the heroes of the light, including Honorary Cardinal Lee Kiyoung of the Holy State, who overcame the case of the Laios demon summoning. Since other aspects were not yet clearly clarified, she dismissed the controversy with the remarks, but the Kingdom of Eberia also expressed great regret and anger for this demon summoning case. Currently, the Kingdom of Eberia is escorted by the State and the Laios’ allied forces, and is scheduled to stay in Laios from the 25th to the 31st. -Reporter Kim Seong-gyeong of the Lindel Daily]
‘It’s very good.’
Perhaps this was the important guest Lee Jihye had been talking about.
When I looked down, I could see the stacked articles, but I did not want to read them. Of course, I was familiar with the content of the articles. This was because, unlike what I just read, all other articles had gone through Lee Jihye’s hand.
[Demon summoner Jin Qing, who the hell is he? -Reporter Park Seong-gyeong of the Lindel Daily]
[The full story of the Laios Demon Summon Case. -Reporter Merlia, the State Newspaper.]
[Why is the Republic defending Jin Qing? About the long history of black magic and the Republic. -Reporter Cheon Wi, Dawan Daily]
[Who are the heroes of light, who became heroes of Laios, and the Honorary Cardinal Lee Kiyoung? Including a special interview with Pope Basel. -Papal Magazine.]
‘Whoa… I want to read this.’
Of course, things that I hadn’t seen before stood out to me. When I picked up the article roughly, I could see the pleasant content.
Honorary Cardinal Lee Kiyoung was a model for all religious people and a treasure given by the Goddess Benigore for the continent.
I already knew that Pope Basel cherished me, but it was heartwarming to directly hear such a warm message.
‘That’s it. Yes. Absolutely.’
It was a biased article that made you feel what it contained just by looking at the title. Of course, my happiness surged just by reading this.
It was not unreasonable to say that the Elf princess or something wanted to see me. As I smiled, a voice came from outside.
“Oppa!”
“Ah, Hayan.”
It was Jung Hayan that opened the door and appeared. Immediately behind her was Cho Hyejin, who closely marked Jung Hayan.
I felt guilty that I couldn’t save her from the trash Jin Qing’s hand in the first round, but I nodded and opened my arms.
“Hehehe.”
“How are you feeling?”
“Er, er, er… I think I’m better than before, but it still hurts… The lower abdomen is aching and aching. Like someone kicking… My heart hurts, too.”
“Really? Shall we take some time after work today?”
“R-Really?”
“Yes. We don’t have a long schedule anyway. Come on, come here.”
As I spoke again, she rushed to hug me.
I thought it wasn’t good to be accepting such foolishness, but for some reason, I remembered her face at that time, and I wanted to hug her at least once every time we met.
‘Dirty masked trash Jin Qing.’
It was a little embarrassing to feel her digging into my arms, but this much attention was safe.
As I patted on Jung Hayan’s back and looked ahead, I saw Cho Hyejin’s face. She was coming to talk to me.
In fact, I already knew what she wanted to say. It was something I had heard hundreds of times.
“Are you sure you’re really okay? Vice Guild Master?”
“How many times are you talking about it already? I’m fine, Hyejin. No, and you can talk to me as usual. Vice Guild Master sounds a little stiff…”
“I’m on a mission now, Vice Guild Master. And… no matter how much you have recovered your health, it is dangerous to overdo it. Actually, I also wanted to cancel today’s schedule.”
“Ah. You can’t. It’s the first step in bringing the interracial alliance. Princess Elena wanted to see us, so I have to meet her. In fact, it’s not that I’m not able to move.”
“Eberia said it was also okay…”
“It’s okay, Hyejin. I’m absolutely not overdoing it. Haha.”
Although she softened up when drinking, she was certainly too hard when working publicly.
However, even this hard conversation didn’t seem to pleasure Jung Hayan. I saw her pulling my clothes, trying to divert her attention to herself.
We had been through many of these patterns, but in fact, most of the stories were useless. However, this time, there was quite a bit of interesting news.
“You know that?”
“What?”
“The rumor is that the elf princess… can tell the cleanliness of the soul!”
Strange worries began to rise from her sudden remarks.
