Chapter 643 – Everyone Has a Good Plan (2)
The top of the magic tower.
Kim Do-jin, who arrived there after a few days, exchanged greetings with fellow executives on various screens, just as he did when he first met them.
-“Hehe, it’s been a while? I thought you’d be gone soon, but now that you’ve become an apostle and standing side by side with us… You’re quite capable, huh?”
A woman licking her red-painted lips with her tongue and speaking in a dirty tone.
-“My name is Lucy. I am an apostle chosen by Luxuria, the goddess of lust. Please take care of me from now on?”
After her introduction, her man, with his bushy hair and dark circles under his eyes, opened his mouth with a slightly uneasy expression.
-“… Shadow. Apostle of sloth (Pigritia).”
It was him.
A guy who attacked Kim Do-jin out of curiosity, but was pushed to the brink of death and barely escaped.
His name was Shadow, the apostle of sloth.
He suddenly became curious.
Shadow’s ability, as its name suggests, is the ability to manipulate the surrounding shadows at will.
“… Is there a correlation between your abilities and laziness?”
What is the relationship between the power to control shadows and sloth?
When I asked that question, Shadow answered in a blunt tone.
-“… Because the shadow does all the work I need to do.”
“Ah.”
I see.
It was truly an ability perfectly worthy of the name Sloth.
Thanks to his attitude of keeping his mouth shut after answering, she naturally moves on to the next introduction.
-“As you may already know, I am Jincheon, the apostle of jealousy (Invidia).”
Jincheon.
He was also a person who experienced a sense of defeat as much as Shadow, no, even greater than that.
This person lost both his arms and martial arts in a wild attack, but managed to regain his arms and martial arts through prosthetic hands given by the enemy and barely stay in his position as an executive.
The relationship between Shadow and Kim Do-jin was not very good, but the relationship between the two was not as bad as I thought.
“How about your arm?”
-“It’s not bad. No, to be honest, it’s better than the original arm.”
“That’s a good thing.”
-“Hehe, I’ll challenge you again soon.”
Jincheon was burning a rivalry with him.
Of course, it wasn’t Kim Do-jin.
After briefly saying hello, his eyes turn to the next screen.
Crunch, crunch!
Wow!
Even though it’s behind a screen, executives are constantly shoving things into their mouths when they’re face to face…, No, pig.
He sucked the red seasoning off his fingers into his mouth and introduced himself, fluttering his flesh as if it was about to overflow at any moment.
-“Ah, Ayush. This, this…, The apostle of Avaritia. Now, please take care of me…!”
Ayush smiles, clearly showing his teeth covered in shiny chili oil.
Kim Do-jin’s eyebrows furrowed when he saw this.
After completing the introduction, he frantically eats the meat mixed in red sauce without even looking at this side.
“Hya…”
It was ironic.
When you eat like that, you are not an apostle of greed but an apostle of stinginess.
No, perhaps that voracious appetite is the reason why he was chosen as a stingy person.
Cool
Whoop
Piyuu!
The gaze naturally falls on a way of eating that is difficult to look at.
Eventually, our gazes meet those of cold blue eyes.
Two conflicting emotions are conveyed.
Similar to trust and doubts that have not yet been removed.
Considering that it was so easy to read, it seemed like there was no intention of hiding these feelings.
‘Well, isn’t it obvious?’
If he had only trusted him, his side would have doubted him.
No matter how much of an executive you become, you can’t build a trusting relationship based on just one position.
Therefore, the feelings he was expressing now were valid and transparent.
So much so that even Kim Do-jin, who had gone through all the hardships before birth, trusted him for a moment.
He opens his mouth.
-“Let me formally introduce myself.”
On the surface, he is an ordinary A-level hunter born in France.
But behind the scenes, he is an ambitious man who dreams of overthrowing the world, and a villain with hundreds of snakes inside him.
-“This is Chris Emir.”
And.
-“I was chosen by superbia.”
As expected, the Apostle of Arrogance.
Kim Do-jin looks closely at Chris’ smiling face with a deep and profound gaze.
What is arrogance?
It refers to the tendency to show off, look down on others, and harm others for one’s own sense of superiority.
However, there is no such sign anywhere from the other person.
That’s why Kim Do-jin was scared of the man in front of him.
Because I can’t even imagine what could be lurking inside something so perfectly hidden.
-“Now it’s Kim Do-jin’s turn.”
Now that you’ve heard everyone’s introduction, it’s your turn.
He leaned heavily on the back of the sofa, took in all five screens in his field of vision, and opened his mouth.
“This is Kim Do-jin. This time, I killed Lu Bu and was chosen by Ira.”
-“Hmm…, So you killed J. Coop? Because you want to be the only apostle?”
The sharp thorn in the sweet tone pricks his heart.
Kim Do-jin did not sit still and watch this.
“Hey, you stupid bitch.”
-“What are you saying…?” !”
Her face hardens.
Kim Do-jin didn’t care and poured out harsh words.
“Why, am I wrong? “If you are in a good mood and want to stab someone for no reason after hearing all the circumstances, isn’t that a prick?”
-“This is really… !”
“Try to see the pups that are like you who are like you. “I have no intention of pleasing you.”
-“…”
Lucy stares at Kim Do-jin wordlessly, biting her lower lip.
Before she could say anything, Chris intervened.
-“Let’s just stop there. Lucy, you were wrong this time.”
-“Ugh…”
Lucy frowned as if she was being wronged, but did not protest and just bit her lip.
It is revealed in that way.
The dignity that Chris Emir has within the organization.
His gentle gaze shines on Kim Do-jin.
-“Mr. Kim Do-jin also said too much.”
I thought about it for a while.
Would it be better to remain confrontational until the end?
Or would it be better to moderately strengthen his authority and take a step back?
The worries didn’t last long.
“Admit it. That moment wasn’t a very good memory for me either, so my words came out a little harshly. “I’m sorry.”
Lucy’s distorted face straightened slightly at the simple apology.
Although not completely, it seems to have comforted my heart a little.
Jincheon, who was quietly watching the situation, added strength to Chris’ words.
-“Let’s stop chatting here and move on to the main topic. Aren’t they all busy people?”
A calm and relaxing atmosphere.
Everyone’s eyes turn to leader Chris Emir.
He also took a moment to catch his breath and revealed the real purpose of bringing everyone together.
-“The time has finally come.”
Hexagram has been steadily preparing, hiding in the dark for longer than expected.
They gathered talent, accumulated capital, and made plans to build the ideal world they wanted.
And finally it was time to stand at the starting line.
-“We want to take the first step toward our grand goal.”
It is time to get up from the crouching body.
As this was their first time announcing themselves to the world, a special operation was needed.
The name of the organization, Hexagram, is so strong and lingering that I cannot forget it until just before I die.
At the same time, to cause irreparable damage to the forces that would be the biggest obstacle to them.
-“The first target is the United States.”
Everyone’s eyes widen as if they were torn apart by his shocking remarks.
-“Well, what…” !?”
-“Hehe…, The first opponent is the United States.”
-“…”
-“Crumple, churp, purr, piyuu…” !”
Various expressions that follow.
Everyone’s emotions were similar except for Ayush, who was preoccupied with eating.
Doubt.
-“Are you serious?”
Chris shakes his head without hesitation in response to Lucy’s question.
-“Of course I’m sincere. “Now is not the time for foolish jokes.”
-“I wish it was a joke!”
-“Unfortunately not.”
He was sincere.
-“I also thought constantly before telling you.”
I hoped that my dream and everyone else’s wishes would not end up being dismissed as mere delusions.
However, in order to achieve this, all vested interests had to be driven out.
In other words, it is no exaggeration to say that we have to fight against the world.
I was very prepared.
In order to control the world according to their own tastes, wouldn’t they have to take some risks?
But it is not enough.
No matter how long we had been preparing, it was difficult to guarantee that it would take hundreds, if not decades, to grow to a level that could compete with the world.
So he thought.
The best and worst move that is the most intense and has the greatest benefit.
The target was the United States.
The world’s most powerful country, which has the largest number of S-class hunters in the world and always assumes a central role when global disasters or dangers occur.
What if the first operation leaves them with scars that cannot be easily recovered?
-“It could greatly reduce the power of the United States, which is the most troublesome.”
Chris is satisfied with Jincheon’s answer.
-“That’s not the end.”
-“What else is there?”
-“You will be able to gain greater power.”
-“Greater power…” How?”
He shared his thoughts with the executives who still had no doubts.
The United States is considered the strongest in name and reality.
What if we inflict an irreparable defeat on them?
The name of the organization Hexagram will instantly become the hottest topic in the world.
And at the same time, it will spread widely.
What are they trying to fight so desperately for?
An ideal world where hunters stand on top.
This will leave a spark in the hearts of those who had similar thoughts to theirs.
-“If we could have them all as our strength…” What about?”
A faint joy fills everyone’s eyes.
-“But I can’t definitely change their minds by any means.”
Quite a few people have similar thoughts but are unwilling to change reality.
It was natural.
No matter how hard you try, you are just an individual. How can anything change?
However, if it is a group, it is a different story.
Even if it is a surprise attack, if it is a group large enough to fight against the world’s most powerful country.
‘It’s dangerous.’
As soon as his thoughts reached that point, Kim Do-jin felt his hair grow bitter.
Dealing with the United States is like hitting a rock with an egg.
But what if, just in case, you could really break the rock?
‘The situation will grow out of control.’
It is human habit to rush in at any cost when there is a glimpse of possibility.
There is no need to completely destroy the United States.
Just having a good fight against them and showing potential is enough.
If we do that, most of those who are standing in an ambiguous neutral area, neither on this side nor on that side, will gather under the organization called Hexagram.
-“Good. “I understand what you mean.”
Lucy asked him with a more serious expression than before.
-“But that only applies when the operation is successful, right? So hurry up and say it. “The plan you have in mind to overthrow America.”
Yes.
Everything I’ve said so far is just idealism.
With words, anyone can bring down the United States and challenge world hegemony.
That’s why now was important.
Because we have to present a method that is realistic and clear enough for them to understand.
He slowly opened his mouth and answered.
-“I plan to open the gates of the abyss in the middle of America.”
-“The Gate of the Abyss… !”
-“Well, that might definitely be a possibility…”
-“…”
-“Hehe, ma, it’s delicious…” .”
The Gate of the Abyss.
When the name of one of the most powerful cards they held was mentioned, a faint smile appeared on each person’s face.
