Episode 581: The Chosen (1)
pod.
Tata Tak.
An alley in Mexico City.
A man who appeared to be in his late 30s ran away with an urgent face.
The chase was very common in a chaotic world, but people who knew that the man was 'Juan Carlos' would be puzzled.
Mexican hero. S-class talent. He's never going to be pursued by anyone, but Juan Carlos can't hide his nervousness as he keeps looking back.
"Damn it."
when a week ago.
There was a fact that Roman Dmitry announced to the world.
He spoke of the connection between the Chosen and the Absolute, and declared that he would conduct an extensive investigation on the Chosen.
People could only be embarrassed.
The shocking truth of Maronism caused great chaos, and in the meantime, when it was revealed that Roman Dmitry was 'Marron Dmitry', there was a flurry of reactions.
And that some chosen ones were the servants of the Absolute. Neither one was easy, so people couldn't say exactly what was right.
As the world embraces the new reality.
The elect are forced to choose.
Under the circumstances of being interrogated one after another, Juan Carlos chose to abandon everything and run away.
'If caught, life cannot be guaranteed.'
Roman Dmitry.
a militant figure.
Seeing that he killed Sebastian without any compromise, he would not be able to save his life the moment his crimes were revealed.
Juan Carlos was not as heroic as I thought.
Ordinary people think that he saved Mexico every time, but in fact, there were many cases where he intentionally created a crisis through a deal with the Absolute.
attracting monsters.
Deal with those monsters yourself.
By driving people to death and saving them, he provided fun that the Absolute could satisfy.
S-class skill.
As a clown, he was a faithful master.
Although he left no evidence of his evil deeds, there was no way Roman Dmitry would have left him alive if the truth was revealed.
So, after much deliberation, I decided to run away. If you live once, you can plan for the future, right?
Juan Carlos, who had once received enthusiastic cheers from the Mexican people, bowed his head hurriedly when he encountered anyone on his way away. As famous as he was, it was difficult to hide his existence.
"Hey, heck."
a week like that.
Now the limit has been reached.
He missed a life where people were cheering him on, and he couldn't accept why he had to run away like this.
'Fuck, good is good. After all, instead of all the incompetent bastards just disappearing, Mexico was saved because the country became strong at the cost of the sacrifice of some people. i feel sorry I didn't mean to completely betray humanity like the guy Roman Dmitry said, but to help the world by selling people in moderation.'
Emotions soared.
I couldn't run away forever.
In particular, he said that he could not stand his patience any longer, especially when the pursuit team was sent directly from the 'Korea Empire'.
It was this judge's board.
stand tall.
stopped walking.
He turned around and showed a ferocious momentum.
Kwareung.
Quiet rumble.
"Yeah, let's try it. I'll show you that I'm not the kind of person to be caught like that."
whoever has been chasing
I will no longer run away.
He will prove himself by force, and will be proudly recognized by people as his legitimacy.
By the way.
palak.
"This is a funny kid."
A being that comes down with its wings flapping.
The moment he confirms that he is Kim Pan-seok.
"Oh, hey."
Juan Carlos hurriedly turned and started running again.
* * *
Not all of the Chosen have been hiding their evil deeds like Juan Carlos.
Those who thought they were proud of themselves voluntarily came to Roman Dmitry to be investigated.
"The concept of patronage is true, but I have never been rewarded for doing something wrong. The 'Absolute One' who supported me was truly cruel. Whenever I encountered a situation I could never solve on my own, I offered a reward, and I always risked my life for humanity."
"I am innocent. I fully understand why His Majesty Roman Dmitry's extensive investigation of the Chosen. Even if it were me, the moment I confirmed Andres' malice, I would have had no choice but to doubt the elect. But I wanted to point out that not everyone is. I will actively take part in the investigation to prove my innocence, and I am proud of myself as a human being."
Even if I say innocence.
The investigation was never completed in one day.
A process was needed to ensure that there were no lies in their testimony, and the truth and lies were distinguished based on the vast amount of data provided by countries around the world.
Of course, I knew that I couldn't be completely sure. But it was a minimum safety net, and by the end of the week, those who had been proven innocent appeared.
And, of course, there were cases like Juan Carlos.
"Juan Carlos. Just because you fled, I'm not going to call you a 'traitor of mankind' unconditionally. However, in several cases in Mexico, it has been found that your alibi is inaccurate, contrary to what you testified. Then there is only one truth. That you have a secret enough to hide an alibi from what the world says you are a hero. From now on, I will proceed with mental interrogation."
"Oh, no!"
"Take it away."
"Aww!"
Soldiers appeared and dragged Juan Carlos away.
mental interrogation.
It was an interrogation led by Kim Pan-seok, and it was a very cruel means of invading the boundaries of the mind and making the other person suffer to tell the truth.
Roman Dmitry set a firm standard to ensure that the innocent would not be subjected to mental interrogation.
Fugitives like Juan Carlos, and those who tell lies that are different from the truth in the course of the investigation.
Finally, if there were suspicious parts that sold the world like 'Andres' through massive data, mental interrogation was conducted.
cruel and
It was inhumane.
Some media criticized it, but Roman Dmitry did not react much to their accusations.
Because it's something I have to do.
Human rights are important in times of peace, but if the chosen one does not properly control the traitors of mankind, the enemy within can destroy humanity.
A bold decision was required. In a world where common sense does not apply, only humans can only play with the pranks of the Absolute if they seek common sense.
Thus, the investigation proceeded one after another.
There were no innocent cases.
As Juan Carlos conducted mental interrogation only in certain cases, they soon revealed with tears and runny nose that they were the 'wicked'.
Like Andres, he said that he sold mankind for their own benefit.
No more.
The chosen ones were not considered heroes.
No matter how good the beings were, it was a big problem for them to derive their power from the 'Absolute'.
a few days after that.
An event has occurred that will shock the world.
* * *
1-3 Investigation Room.
That was where the incident took place.
Julien of France, known as the Chosen and Class A Hunter, was investigated, and he laughed out loud in front of the investigator.
"Inspector. Let me ask you one thing in reverse."
squeaky.
I leaned the chair forward.
He showed his face to the point of being burdensome, and looked at the investigator intently and said.
"If that's the case. If the investigator is a being supported by the 'Absolute', would you be able to deny the Absolute's request? Even though a human who lived with a fuss every day can have power comparable to that of an S-class hunter at once, ah, for the sake of mankind, this must never be the case. Do you think you can say that?"
"So does that mean you betrayed humanity?"
The investigator's expression hardened.
Magic circles are installed on the floor of the investigation room, so if Julien does a nonsense, it will immediately trap him.
And a large number of troops were waiting outside the investigation room.
The investigator was not at all intimidated by Julien's reaction, and he did not avoid Julien's gaze as he looked at him.
Julien grinned.
It was fun.
Unlike the other chosen ones, he voluntarily took up the investigation for a different purpose.
"They really are pretentious bastards. The Absolute is the god of this world. God speaks directly to me and promises to reward me, but do you think it makes sense to say no? If you have a head, do what you think. Sponsorship is an irresistible temptation, and from the moment I made the 'choice', to me, I was only more important than the safety of mankind."
"you… … !"
No further conversation was necessary.
obvious hostility.
The moment the investigator was about to send a signal, Julien's magic exploded.
"Do you think you can catch me with this kind of magic circle?"
Quang-!
Quiet rumble rumble.
The magic circle appeared simultaneously.
Hundreds of bundles of magic appeared and seized Julien, but Julien's powerful magic ripped them apart.
Investigators have prepared countless times for situations like this.
As soon as the magic circle appeared, he took refuge, and the soldiers who were watching the situation inside approached and tried to subdue Julien.
Grade A.
It was a low rank for the chosen self-government.
However, the actual force was completely different from the public opinion.
"Attack!"
"Take it down!"
pod.
Papa Papa Papa.
He received all the attacks from all directions.
Violent mana swelled from Julien's hands, and the head of the first soldier who rushed in was smashed on the desk.
puck!
Kwajik.
head exploded
Julien's face was drenched in blood, and from then on, he began to unilaterally slaughter the soldiers who rushed at him.
Among them, there was a strong person who was deployed for the safety of the investigators.
He was an A-class hunter who could never handle it, but Julien killed them all as if he was nothing.
This place.
It is in the middle of the Korean Empire.
Nevertheless, he showed his malice, and after killing them all, he returned to his chair and sat down again.
It was a creepy sight.
The surrounding area was already in ruins, and the ceiling, which was a building, was showing a blue sky with its ceiling open.
only one.
Only the investigators survived.
Julien said looking at the investigator.
"Call Roman Dmitry here right now. Not me, but the Absolute who supports me wants to meet."
* * *
"Uh-huh."
Julien hummed.
He leaned back on the chair and wiggled his feet, showing a relaxed appearance as if this was his home.
The space was meaningless.
He could escape at any time into the open sky, but Julien deliberately stayed in a space called the 'Investigation Room' and waited for Roman Dmitry to come.
It was not the only condition. Looking at the terrified investigator, Julien demanded one more.
"Oh, and don't bring anyone here except Roman Dmitry. I want to have a conversation just the two of us. If you do a revamp, I will assure you that 'you' will surely be killed by any means possible."
About 10 minutes have passed since then.
Julien looked around.
A ruined investigation room.
Still, the magic defense was well formed, the ceiling flew off, but the shape of the investigation room was maintained.
The door was barely attached to the tattered corpses lying on the floor. The recent development of magical civilization has been remarkable.
It developed rapidly, starting with the Korean Empire, and even the absolute who supported him showed admiration for it.
The plan of the Absolutes.
faster than that
Humanity should have progressed a little slower, but Roman Dmitry was changing everything.
"Ttttttt, it's like you're acting like you don't even know if that's something you're urging on the line. People say Roman Dmitry is the one who will save the world, but I think the world will end soon because of him."
It didn't matter what happened.
the chosen one.
The reason he was attached to the Absolute was because the Absolute was the one who brought disaster to mankind.
It was like Andres.
As a method of opposing the Absolute is not even allowed to have a survival rate of 0.1%, I rather choose the method of surviving by satisfying the Absolute.
So I found Roman Dmitry. The Absolute gave Julien a quest, and in order to fulfill it, he had to meet Roman Dmitry.
There was nothing to worry about.
Roman Dmitry is transcendental or whatever.
Isn't this quest the 'direct' intervention of the Absolute?
That was then.
squeaky.
thud.
The anxious door fell to the floor.
and beyond.
I saw a man come in.
"what? I would have said it clearly. Don't invite anyone except Roman Dmitry."
"Oh yeah? by the way."
bum bum.
took a step inside.
The man was Kim Pan-seok.
He stopped in front of Julien, looked down at him coldly and said,
"Whether you're the absolute or whatever, are you a being who comes and goes if your majesty the damn emperor comes?"
A voice uttered fiercely.
It was a really embarrassing situation, far beyond Julien's expectations.
