Episode 525: Eye of the Typhoon (1)

 

6th catastrophe.

 

People say they are experiencing despair on an unprecedented scale, and that it is fortunate for mankind that a red point has been established in the United States.

 

If a red point is set in another country. It would never have been as strong as the US.

 

The United States, a world power, has been able to withstand it so far, and even the monsters that appeared on the first day of Red Time were enough to destroy two or three of the weaker countries.

 

People gave thumbs up.

 

praised America.

 

Just when I thought the catastrophe was going to end like this, on the last day of Red Time, something shocking happened.

 

Washington DC, capital of the United States

 

A new kind of monster appeared there.

 

[Humans. die.]

 

It was a human form.

 

The monster on the vague borderline, whether it was a skeleton or a human, flapped its black robe and raised its finger.

 

flash.

 

Quiet rumble rumble.

 

Lightning struck from the sky.

 

In an instant, American soldiers were swept away, and people knew that they were S-class monsters in just one attack.

 

Even then, I wasn't too worried.

 

The United States has already blocked the attacks of S-class monsters several times, and since it is the capital city where defense power is concentrated, we thought that we should block the attack without any problems.

 

However.

 

The presence of the unknown created a completely different situation.

 

The being who poured magic showed a fierce momentum as he watched the humans rushing towards him.

 

[I can feel the scent of death. revival.]

 

evil.

 

The magic spread.

 

The ground shook, and the dead began to climb from Hell.

 

Whoa!

 

Crumble.

 

hundreds? thousands?

 

It wasn't.

 

There were hundreds of thousands.

 

The monsters that fell asleep in this place gained vitality, and the more shocking problem was the fact that some of them included S-grade monsters.

 

American soldiers were blocked by monsters.

 

It was difficult to deal with the dead rather than deal with the unknown, and the S-class dead showed their strength and swept away the soldiers.

 

after that.

 

Magic was manifested.

 

Just as humans divided their roles to attack, the unknown constantly poured out magic.

 

[die!]

 

Wow!

 

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

 

It was a catastrophe.

 

There is an emergency in America.

 

The US government judged the unknown existence to be a boss monster, and convened US forces to the capital to prevent the 6th catastrophe.

 

It was truly all-out.

 

Boss monsters are the ones that signal the end of the catastrophe. Because peace can only be restored by defeating the boss monster, the United States staked the nation's fate in this fight.

 

commander-in-chief of the United States.

 

Robert led the men on the battlefield.

 

"Risk your life! Never back off! If you defeat the boss monster, peace will come back to America!"

 

Robert was an S-Class Hunter.

 

He raised his sword and expressed his blessing.

 

The magical powers resulting from it gave the soldiers infinite power, and the United States entrusted him with the role of commander-in-chief because of the high value of the buff's abilities.

 

There were enough reasons not to step back. If we lose at this rate, the nation of the United States will perish, so even as his colleagues were dying, the soldiers pushed in.

 

And the soldiers who lost their lives appeared again as enemies by the revival.

 

It was an atrocious match.

 

unknown existence.

 

To simply classify it as an S grade, it revealed such a huge presence that it was impossible to find a similar example.

 

The city collapsed.

 

Many people died.

 

At that time, while he was focusing on the battle with a strap around his neck, Robert received shocking news.

 

[A boss monster has appeared in LA!]

 

"… … A boss monster?!"

 

It was shocking.

 

The existence in front of you is not a boss monster.

 

The US government must have concluded that the monster that appeared in LA was more powerful than this ridiculous monster. Robert's complexion turned pale.

 

He has absolute confidence in the United States and asserts that the country will never fall when he receives a report that the United States has been set on a red point.

 

But now it was different.

 

Unknown existence and boss monster.

 

This was the worst situation in 20 years, with no similar examples to be found.

 

* * *

 

a few days after that.

 

The US government convened an emergency meeting.

 

Although the meeting had already been held dozens of times, there was no hope at all on the faces of the attendees.

 

said the U.S. Secretary of Defense.

 

"10 minutes ago. LA's defenses have completely collapsed. Like the unknown that attacked the capital, the vampire-type monsters that attacked LA make the US troops their host and engulf all of LA in an instant. In the Pentagon's judgment, the deadline ahead is less than 24 hours. Now that defenses are down, in 24 hours, all of LA will fall into vampire territory."

 

"this."

 

"Great."

 

Everyone contorted their faces.

 

unknown existence.

 

vampire.

 

Both were the worst matchmaking for humans.

 

It was impossible to overwhelm the number of hands and limbs, and above all, the vampire, presumed to be a boss monster, exerted tremendous power.

 

Two S-class hunters guarding Los Angeles had their heads blown away.

 

With overwhelming force, the US government was convinced that vampires were boss monsters, and the vampires spewed out dark red blood and joined the hunters' heads to make them their own servants.

 

From then on, beings who were strong American talents slaughtered the same humans and put their teeth in the nape of their necks.

 

Capital and LA.

 

At the same time, it faced a crisis.

 

Among them, the reason LA had no choice but to collapse was that it had mobilized all its troops to protect the capital.

 

power imbalance.

 

However, he could not withdraw his troops.

 

In a situation where it is difficult to deal with the unknown, and if the troops are dispersed indiscriminately, not only LA, but also the capital city may collapse. The US government had no choice but to make a choice.

 

I was thinking of securing the safety of the capital first, but as the battle lengthened, LA eventually collapsed.

 

said one chieftain.

 

"… … 24 hours. If LA becomes a den of monsters, America has no future. Is there any way to ask for assistance from other countries?"

 

"I have already tried to contact them, but there is no country that has enough money to help the United States. As you know, the 6th Catastrophe swept the world on a scale as great as a long, long hiatus. They say they will send troops if they solve their own problems, but that is not possible right now."

 

"Then are you saying that we should give up LA like this?"

 

"We are trying to do our best, but there is no way to do it this way."

 

It was miserable.

 

It was the worst.

 

How did this happen, American leaders felt at a loss.

 

It was then.

 

The US Secretary of State, who was watching the situation, said cautiously.

 

"President. How about asking South Korea for help?"

 

* * *

 

Moment.

 

The conference room was filled with silence.

 

The reason they react that way is that Korea has been a topic that has been constantly discussed at meetings over the past few days.

 

the president said

 

"Minister of State. South Korea has violated international law. Still, do you think you need their help?"

 

things in Korea.

 

reported to the U.S. Department of Information.

 

It was such a shocking move that the United States decided to decide the treatment of the Republic of Korea as soon as the catastrophe was over.

 

International law has clear boundaries.

 

I couldn't accept beings beyond that.

 

"I am well aware that this is a sensitive issue, too. A person named Roman Dmitry appeared and formed a rebellion, which broke international law and took bold steps to execute President Kim Jung-tae. Moreover, changing the name of the Republic of Korea to the Korean Empire and calling himself emperor must be severely punished for world peace. The problem is how they solved the catastrophe. Roman Dmitry dealt with S-class monsters in one blow, and in just 3 days, solved all the problems that occurred throughout Korea. He is beyond common sense. As if the monsters that appeared this time said that they should be assigned a new grade, not an S grade, Roman Dmitry has a strong power."

 

The Secretary of State was also miserable.

 

If he had been able to solve his own problems, he would never have said something like this.

 

"Korea is currently the only country in the world that can afford to help other countries. To be precise, South Korea is the only option if you exclude countries like China, which have hostile feelings to the United States. President. The current choice may be to give legitimacy to the 'Korean Empire'. It is an option that should be excluded when looking into the distant future, but if you simply consider the safety of your country, you should not choose any means and methods for now. The safety of LA citizens comes first, isn't it? We must find a way to somehow save LA before it is completely destroyed."

 

It was a valid statement.

 

So I had no choice but to remain silent.

 

If Roman Dmitry solves the LA problem, it was clear that the value of Korea would rise at once.

 

I pondered for a long time.

 

After an anxious time, the President of the United States asked.

 

"What is Roman Dmitry's exact identity?"

 

"I haven't figured it out yet. I think there is a special reason for the surname Dmitry, but I have no idea where he came from or what kind of life he has lived."

 

"There is a high possibility that the Maron Church will protest against this incident. What do you think of him?"

 

American Maronism.

 

They are a group that studies catastrophes, and they are the world's largest group with a huge number of followers worldwide.

 

Their purpose was unique.

 

Maronism has a Bible.

 

In order for the god they worship to come to this world, Maronism set up the goal of creating an environment for 'He' in advance.

 

Those who believe that God's coming can solve all problems in the future. They reacted sensitively to South Korea's actions.

 

Maronism is an organization that actively advocates punishment in the Republic of Korea, saying that beings who dare express themselves as emperors exceed the authority of God.

 

But what if you get help from Korea?

 

Maronism will be in turmoil.

 

Their voice, which exerts considerable global influence, could never be taken lightly.

 

"Of course it will be a problem. The Maron Church regards the fall of LA as an ordeal. If God comes down, all mankind's problems will be solved, so they are more focused on creating a new world that will accept God. It is not the purpose the US government is supposed to follow. If the safety of our citizens is our top priority, we need to take the risk now."

 

It was a dilemma.

 

There were many problems.

 

Even if you solve problems with help, life after the catastrophe will not be smooth.

 

However.

 

There was no other way.

 

The president made a decision.

 

"The most important thing for us is the safety of our citizens. Contact Korea right now. I will ask for help myself."

 

* * *

 

Communication is connected.

 

beyond the screen.

 

The president of the United States said it outright.

 

[Help America. If the Republic of Korea does not abandon its alliance, the United States will pay as much war compensation as the Republic of Korea desires. I promise you enough compensation to fully recover the damage caused by this catastrophe.]

 

It was a voice of strange tension.

 

The Republic of Korea changed its name.

 

Now it has become the Korean Empire, but the United States called it Korea even though it knew that fact.

 

It cannot be accepted yet.

 

Referring to alliances and war reparations, they proposed a deal with the sensitive issues out of the way.

 

Roman Dmitry said.

 

"I will accept the request of the United States."

 

[…] … Are you saying you want to help?]

 

"Yes."

 

The President of the United States was perplexed.

 

In fact, I thought I would attach several conditions to a straight-forward proposal.

 

It was expected that he would discuss the legitimacy of the Korean Empire, but Roman Dmitry did not even show any signs of concern.

 

It was a simple matter.

 

From the time I heard the news from the United States, I had already made a decision.

 

"After the outbreak of the catastrophe. The United States and the Korean Empire have maintained an alliance. Just as the United States helped the Korean Empire to solve many problems, I also do not turn away from the dangers of the United States, which was my ally. However, I would like to end the relationship with this one time. The Republic of Korea has changed its name to the Korean Empire, and in the future, all relations will begin anew in the name of the Korean Empire. So don't attach any special significance to this event. We will play our part as an ally, and we will be rewarded enough for what the President of the United States said. And after that. Whether the Korean Empire and the United States will remain as alliances in the future is a question that needs to be carefully considered from now on."

 

New born country.

 

When a new leader was elected, Roman Dmitry did not completely abandon his relationship.

 

America needed to help.

 

It's not just about ending the relationship.

 

The United States is a global power.

 

It is a country with the best national defense capabilities, but what will happen if they solve problems that even they cannot handle? People will recognize the Korean Empire.

 

Although the Korean Empire has caused many problems, such as violating international law, the power possessed by the Korean Empire will create a situation in which it cannot be antagonized.

 

Now that the Korean Empire had secured safety, Roman Dmitry knew it was time to move on his own.

 

like that.

 

tuk.

 

communication was cut off.

 

There were leaders of the Korean Empire around.

 

They listened to Roman Dmitry, and Kim Jun-hyuk stepped forward and spoke.

 

"Shall we form a support force right now?"

 

"No, you don't have to."

 

this support.

 

will prove overwhelmingly.

 

Rather than forcibly recruiting troops that have not yet been organized, he knew a suitable method for this task.

 

Roman Dmitry said.

 

"Only me and Park Min-woo go. You will be responsible for the safety of the Korean Empire while I am away."

 

Moment.

 

Park Min-woo's expression brightened.

 

Before even asking his doctor, Minwoo Park jumped up from his seat and shouted.

 

"I will check the coordinates of the United States right now and prepare a teleport magic circle!"
