## Chapter 266 – 27. Korea Has a High Fever for Education (3)
Come on, logically, with so many assembly members coming, shouldn’t there be at least one from the Equality, Freedom, and Constitution Party? How many of them are there?
“They hold the most seats, you know. The district head too.”
As far as I know, they hold a little over half of the seats in the city and district councils, and they have one more district head.
Statistically, it’s not just one or two people, but almost ten who should have come to me to beg for forgiveness.
“…That’s true. There’s no way their members wouldn’t know about this movement.”
“A dozen people are moving every day; they should give up their badges if they don’t know.”
It seems like an order came down from their superiors.
Something like, “Don’t act rashly.”
Otherwise, these numbers don’t make sense.
“There are always those who kick away the hand trying to be generous.”
Because I’m a magnanimous person, I was planning to forgive them all as long as they came to me.
All they did was collectively refuse my invitation.
It did damage my prestige a bit, but I repaid that by wiping out the district heads.
They’ve paid the price for their sins, so if they come to their senses and promise to do better, I should forgive them and trust them.
Isn’t that the mindset of someone who wants to own Incheon?
But these bastards don’t appreciate my generous heart and are doing weird things again.
“How many today?”
“Eight in the morning, and nine have said they’ll come in the afternoon.”
“All opposition?”
“Yes. Fifteen from the Better Future Party, one from the Korean Youth Party, and one from the Progressive Innovation Party.”
“Haven’t heard from the Progressive Innovation Party in a while. But they hated me, like, a lot.”
I know they hated me to the point of loathing.
I beat their only district head to death, and they’ve been protesting and obstructing everything I do.
They’ve been quieter recently, though…
‘These guys have bothered me too much. Should I accept them too?’
“Recently, various corruption facts and illegal activities have surfaced, causing rifts even among their supporters. Donations and budgets have also been drastically reduced, and I understand they’re currently considering selling their party headquarters.”
“Really? Why the sudden fuss?”
I didn’t do anything.
I only got rid of the ones who gave me the stink eye and directly caused trouble; I haven’t done anything to the party itself.
I’m not exactly overflowing with manpower right now. I’m busy in many ways.
“Well… nothing specific has been identified, but it’s true that the party itself is in a very difficult situation. Should we dig deeper?”
“No, it’s okay.”
There’s no need to go that far.
They’re just small fries, even if they’re annoying.
“Anyway, they’re in so much trouble that they’re considering selling their headquarters, right? That’s why they’re trying to stick to me.”
“Yes.”
When it comes to money, what comes to mind? The Korea Group, of course.
This is a fact that anyone would know, even if they don’t fully recognize the Korea Group’s dominance.
Currently, South Korea is covered with the Korea Group’s subsidiaries and affiliates.
Of course, the names are all different because having “Korea” plastered everywhere would give off a strong sense of monopoly.
Over 90% of the Korea Group’s subsidiaries don’t have “Korea” in their name, so someone seeing them for the first time might not realize they’re affiliates or subsidiaries of the Korea Group.
But even so, they’ll eventually find out. That an enormous number of fields are covered by the Korea Group.
So, it’s only natural to think of the Korea Group when it comes to “money.”
That Progressive Innovation Party is probably trying to stick to me because they’re short on cash.
If I forgive that one person, the rest of the Progressive Innovation Party will come flocking.
‘They might even come down from the mainland political parties.’
And I’m forgiving assembly members right now, right?
It’s the perfect atmosphere to sneakily get in on.
‘Like hell I’ll let you, you bastards.’
My house isn’t some beggar’s den. I can’t tolerate this kind of sneaky exploitation of my goodwill.
“Let’s wait until today, and if there aren’t any ruling party members by then, starting tomorrow, the deadline’s over. Don’t accept anyone, even if they say they’ll come. Tell them to leave their party if they want to come.”
“Understood.”
“And that Progressive Innovation Party member… let’s meet her first. See what kind of bullshit she’s spouting.”
If it’s a man, I’ll kill him without hesitation, and even if it’s a woman, I’ll kill her first, but if she’s pretty enough to catch my eye, I might let her off with endless rape + leaving the party.
“Thinking about it, these opposition bastards have gotten too relaxed. Since I’m forgiving them, they’re all coming in droves without a care in the world. Do you think the ones who came to me first, the ones who came the next day, and the ones who are coming in droves after that have the same resolve?”
No one has shown that yet.
At least on the surface, they all apologized to me, their foreheads touching the ground in repentance.
But there’s no way that’s true deep down.
The people who came before them have all proven that I forgive them, give them gifts, and treat them well, so would they come with fear and trembling? They probably just thought, “Let’s go quickly, get it over with, and come back.”
‘I’m seeing them in a new light. The first two.’
Compared to them, the first two came with real determination.
They came to me, who killed 15 district heads for not attending a banquet and drowned someone for saying, “There’s a general assembly, can you let me go?” to beg for forgiveness.
They have spirit, so they’ll be useful in many ways.
‘I should start picking on one or two of them to get rid of.’
Forgiveness is something you seek with genuine guilt, with fear and trembling.
If they come thinking it’s easy, I have to cut them off.
I’ve been accepting too many of them.
.
.
Thwack!
Along with the dull sound of a blunt object striking, a slender face snapped around.
A few teeth rolled across the floor with blood.
“Keh, eugh…!!”
“Assemblywoman…!!”
The beaten female assembly member looked up at me with trembling eyes, supported by her aide.
I approached her, swinging the blood-stained bat.
“I’m trying my best to forgive, but if you act so blatantly disrespectful, I can’t help it. Assemblywoman. Please help me out!!”
I swing again.
Thwack!
“Keuh!”
The aide tries to block it, intending to protect the female assembly member, but if that happens, I’ll just hit her several times until she gets hit.
First, I beat the guy until he’s about to die, and then I use the bat to massage the trembling woman who’s become defenseless.
“Augh…”
The assembly member drooped, tears streaming down her bloodied face.
She won’t die if she gets treatment in time.
“But I’ll forgive you since you came. Consider it the price you paid for being arrogant.”
“Tha…nk…y. Thank…y…”
She couldn’t finish her sentence and fainted.
“Tell the next assembly member who comes to take her. Tell them to take her to the hospital.”
“Understood.”
In fact, this woman didn’t do anything that bad.
I just happened to be thinking of picking on someone, and she happened to do something that slightly bothered me.
There are people like that in life.
People who are just inherently arrogant and disrespectful.
If you look at it nicely, they’re haughty, but if you look at it badly, they’re annoying.
That attitude was subtly revealed.
So I beat her.
It might be a little unfair from her perspective.
Like, did she really deserve to be beaten this badly?
But life is all about timing.
She should have been more careful.
If she had come with the right mindset from the start, making sure not to do anything that would offend me even slightly, she wouldn’t have been picked on.
“Next.”
+++
As befitting the era of gender equality, I beat up a male assembly member equally.
He didn’t commit any particularly egregious offenses either, but there was something about him that bothered me.
I don’t even know what it was.
And the one who came from the Progressive Innovation Party was a woman, but she was even more plump than the toad district head I beat to death.
Well,
They’re all about life, the environment, and anti-vaxx, so they don’t even do the most basic anti-aging, so there’s no way they’d be pretty.
I’m an idiot for even thinking for a moment, “If she’s pretty, I might let her off with endless rape + leaving the party.”
When I listened to what she had to say, she was still trying to engage in a power struggle, saying things like, “I’m sorry, but~ blah blah blah, Young Master also~ blah blah blah.” So I just beat her to death.
She came to apologize for her past actions and beg for forgiveness, but why does she keep adding conditions? It’s infuriating.
Anyway, with this, two of the assembly members who visited today were seriously injured, and one died.
If I’ve done this much, the ones who come tomorrow will be a little more nervous, right?
‘Ah! I might die if I come too comfortably!’
They’ll think.
“These bastards, they don’t have the right attitude for seeking forgiveness. They think they can just come and go like they’re on a pilgrimage, visiting a dozen people a day. Do they think I’m Bulguksa Temple, you bastards? That they can just bow and be done with it.”
Calming my excited heart a little, I receive a report from Sua.
“Did any ruling party members contact us today?”
Sua checked the device again.
Of course, they only use analog documents when reporting to me; everyone uses the latest devices for practical work.
“No, there aren’t any.”
“Really? Then that’s it.”
From now on, the Equality, Freedom, and Constitution Party is excluded from the 대상 of forgiveness.
You are beings who cannot be forgiven, so if you have belatedly become aware of your sins, show sincerity by leaving the party.
That’s the minimum condition.
