Chapter 1766 – 1766. Vampire Detective
The Double Dragon, having crossed the Seongsu Bridge, sped relentlessly towards Gangwon Province. There were no obstacles. I lay with my head on Secretary Kim’s comfortable thigh, sucking on her nipple. The constantly flowing breast milk filled my stomach, but I couldn’t take my mouth off her nipple. It was truly a bewitching chest.
Sluurp. Sluurp. Sluurp!
“Ah, ah, ugh!”
I was alternating between sucking and chewing on her right and left breasts when it happened. The Double Dragon, which had been moving forward without pause, came to a stop.
I got up from my position, annoyed. My hands, still wet with breast milk, squeezed Secretary Kim’s breasts.
“Hey, Knight Fei. What is it this time?”
-It’s the police! The Gangwon Province police have blocked our path!
“Police? Not the military, but the police? Just ignore them and drive through!”
-The police force is not to be underestimated!
Secretary Kim manipulated the monitor. The monitor lit up, showing the Gangwon Province police force blocking the front of the Double Dragon.
Ten armored vehicles, four special-purpose combat machines, twenty car barricades, two combat helicopters hovering in the air. Thirty members of the Gangwon Province Special Forces STG (Saber Tiger) and 500 regular armed police officers were blocking our way.
One of the police officers stepped forward. He was a pot-bellied man wearing sunglasses. The guy with an incongruous Kaiser mustache put a megaphone to his mouth and shouted confidently.
“Criminal Sung Yu-jin, come out immediately! This is Gangwon Province! You have ten seconds!”
I swallowed a scoff.
That damn ten seconds.
Did they think I’d be scared if they came at me like that?
“You moron. To think you’d try to stop the Double Dragon with such a pathetic force… The price of your foolishness will be your lives. Prepare the Dragon Breath.”
-Chairman, if we use the Dragon Breath here… it will hit the Chuncheon City behind us! The citizens of Gangwon Province might turn against us!
“I don’t care what those Gangwon pigs do. Fire the Dragon Breath.”
-Understood, Chairman. Preparing the Dragon Breath… Oh no! We don’t have enough electricity to use the Dragon Breath!
“What? It should have generated power while rolling all the way here!”
-The engine efficiency was low. It seems there was some damage when we fought those thugs at the Seongsu Bridge. We need 20% more power to fire the Dragon Breath.
“Tch. No choice then. Secretary Kim, the manual control.”
“Yes, Chairman.”
Secretary Kim manipulated the controls, and a manual controller appeared from the floor.
“Capture the criminal!”
The police began firing at the Double Dragon. But all it did was shake the body a little. I deliberately forbade the cannon from firing back.
I gripped the controller tightly in one hand. It was my personal controller, made for the worst-case scenario.
Pzzzzzzzzzz!
It generated lightning. The lightning traveled from the controller to the engine and battery.
-Oh! The battery power is charging up rapidly! 1%… 3%… 5%… Dragon Breath is ready to charge!
There was no reason to hesitate. The Double Dragon began to charge.
Wiiiiiiiiing!
As power gathered in the Double Dragon’s mouth, the enemy’s faces changed.
“This crazy bastard! Is he going to use a railgun here?! He killed hundreds of thousands of Seoul citizens with a railgun…?! Is he planning to kill the people of Gangwon Province?! Stop him! No matter what, we must stop the mouth of that Double Dragon!”
Four 5-meter-tall special-purpose combat machines rushed forward. They were bipedal robots controlled by humans. They clung to the Double Dragon’s head, trying to stop the railgun, but… I didn’t make them weak enough to be broken by a few robot punches.
-Charge complete!
“Hahaha! Be incinerated by the Dragon Breath!”
Click!
As I pressed the button on the controller, two railgun shots were fired simultaneously.
The police force in front of me vanished as if they had evaporated, and the shots blasted through the road, flying into the city. A huge building hit by the railgun crumbled.
“It’s not as satisfying as destroying a building in Seoul. I guess it can’t be helped since it’s Gangwon Province. I’ll have to fire one more time.”
-We don’t have enough power to fire the Dragon Breath again!
“I’ll take care of the power! I know well since I’m from Gangwon Province, the Gangwon pigs won’t surrender with just one railgun shot! To thoroughly subdue them, I need to fire at least five times!”
-…As you wish.
Since they said as I wished, I did as I wished.
I fired the railgun a total of five times at Chuncheon City. All the tall buildings collapsed, and the city began to burn. No one in Chuncheon City dared to block my path.
‘If the police hadn’t blocked me, I wouldn’t have had to fire the railgun… Gangwon pigs. Blame the police who dared to block my path without knowing their place.’

Finally, I arrived at the kimchi canning factory.
I got out of the Double Dragon with Secretary Kim and walked towards the factory’s main gate with an arrogant gait.
Tch.
I clicked my tongue involuntarily when I saw the factory. It was big. The biggest among the other factories around. But it wasn’t impressive enough for the eyes of the chairman of the transnational corporation, Daechun Group.
“Chairman, the kimchi canning factory was originally scheduled for expansion.”
“Is that so?”
“The reaction to kimchi cans overseas was quite good. A superfood. Especially kimchi produced in its homeland.”
“How long will it take for the company to return to normal?”
“…The situation is not over yet, so I cannot give a definite answer, but… I think it will take at least 50 years.”
50 years.
If a person’s life is 100 years, half of that time is consumed.
“50 years. Secretary Kim, if you stay by my side, it’s nothing.”
“Chairman, if only you are safe, Daechun Group will regain its place at the top of the world.”
I smiled at her and walked towards the factory’s main gate.
“You’ve arrived! Chairman!”
As soon as I entered the factory’s main gate, the factory manager bowed at a 90-degree angle. He kept his hands tightly by his thighs as he bowed!
“You’ve arrived! Chairman!”
The employees lined up on both sides, bowing their heads in greeting.
I stared at the factory manager. Sweat poured down his head like rain. After a while, I could even hear the sound of his sweat dripping onto the floor.
I stepped on his shoe.
“Ugh…!”
He desperately held back a scream.
“Why didn’t you come out to greet me? If you heard I was coming, you should have come out of the factory to greet me, shouldn’t you? That’s the proper etiquette for welcoming a superior.”
“Th-that’s because I was busy with work…”
“And why are you the only one here?”
“Wh-what do you mean…?”
“More than half of the factories built in this tiger-spirited Korean peninsula are mine. It’s no different here in Gangwon Province. But I don’t see any other factory managers. Isn’t that an act of disrespect?”
“I don’t know about that!”
“If you don’t know, you should have found out. And… did you think I wouldn’t know that you pledged your loyalty to the vice-chairman?”
“No! I am loyal to the Chairman… Ack!”
I broke his joint. His leg immediately shattered. He collapsed to the floor. I put my foot on his head.
“Chairman! Please spare me! Chairman! I don’t follow the vice-chairman! The only rightful owner of this Daechun Group is you, Chairman!”
“Don’t state the obvious.”
I put more pressure on my foot. His cheek was crushed.
“Ughhhhhhhhh!”
“I won’t kill you. It’s ambiguous to say that you betrayed me.”
Above all, this is the kimchi canning factory that Han Ha-rin wants.
“Start the factory. I need kimchi cans. Full operation 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. If the factory stops for even a minute, I’ll turn you into salted seafood and use you to make kimchi for your family to eat. Do you understand?”
“Heeek! Pl-please believe me! I will increase the production of kimchi cans!”
“Pay attention to the taste too.”
Having shown mercy, I looked around at the employees. They were all sweating profusely, their eyes fixed on the ground.
“Secretary Kim.”
“Yes, Chairman.”
“It seems that none of the factory managers nearby have come to greet me.”
The workers in this world have to work more than 100 hours a week. Factories run day and night as a matter of course. In other words, even if it’s late, the factory should be working. And it wasn’t even that late right now.
“They seem to be hiding or have run away.”
“Have the soldiers burn down the factories. A few cannon shots should set them ablaze.”
“Will you be clearing out the factories?”
“This is a place where food factories are gathered anyway. It’s a place where Sung Soo-woon’s influence has reached. I don’t know when he’ll stab me in the back, so it’s better to eliminate the source of trouble.”
“Understood.”
Rumble!
The Double Dragon began to move, destroying the nearby factories. I watched the scene and then went into the warehouse. It was full of kimchi cans.
I asked the limping factory manager.
“How many are there?”
“120,000… These are the ones prepared for export to Europe and the United States! If we run the factory at full capacity, we can make 300,000 in three days!”
“120,000. That’s enough. I’ll take them all.”
“Chairman! Then there will be claims from Europe and the United States!”
“What?”
What the hell was I hearing? I stared at him, dumbfounded, and he immediately lowered his eyes and cowered.
“It was a slip of the tongue!”
“Do better, will you?”
I sent him away and took 120,000 kimchi cans. I could picture how happy Han Ha-rin would be. She’d probably act all prickly on the outside.
“Secretary Kim. Connect me to President Kang on the news.”
“Yes, Chairman.”
Secretary Kim handed me a tablet. President Kang was sitting in the tablet. He was trying to act calm, but his eyes were wide with tension. But it wasn’t scary at all.
“Hehe. President Kang. Some pathetic force or something got beaten by me. You know that, right?”
“Did you contact me just to mock me? You’ve been stabbed by your own children, yet you have the leisure to do this.”
“I told you earlier. You’d regret it. Are you ready to regret it?”
“China, Russia, the United States, and Japan have started to move. You’re the one who will regret it. I can already see you as a guinea pig trapped deep in Mount Baekdu.”
I chuckled and snapped my fingers. Secretary Kim took out a new tablet. I adjusted its position so he could see it well and turned it on.
“Can you see this? It’s Seoul taken from a satellite. Oh dear. An armored unit is gathering in Seoul.”
“Seoul is burning because of you. The property damage alone is 5.5 trillion won! The people are crying out for your death! The armored unit will advance the moment everything is ready!”
“That’s not what you should be looking at. Here, the center! Look closely, the center of Seoul! The Big Sky Tower!”
“That’s the tower our military has occupied.”
“Occupied? Who said I’d hand it over to you? I never let anyone take what’s mine. I’d rather destroy it with my own hands! That’s my principle!”
“What…? No way!”
Secretary Kim handed me a remote control with a button.
“President Kang! And the citizens of Seoul! This is for betraying me! Regret it and die!!!”
I pressed the button hard.
The nuclear bomb hidden in a secret place in the Big Sky Tower exploded. A bright light engulfed Seoul, and soon a mushroom cloud rose over the devastated city.
“Hahahahahahaha!”
“You, you crazy bastard! You killed all 50 million Seoul citizens!!! Have you abandoned all human decency?”
“Hmm? Why are you still alive? Ah. You’re not in Seoul. Hehe. Well, that’s good. This is the price for your betrayal. Do you regret it now?”
