## Chapter 458 – 458. Level Up System
458. Level Up System
“Use what you’ve prepared!”
“Yes, Apostle!”
The bishops held up rocket launchers.
*Kwaang!* *Kwang!* *Kwaang!*
It didn’t even take three minutes for the rocket launchers, firing indiscriminately, to turn the police barricade into a wasteland.
My followers and I stepped over the charred corpses of the police and entered the Blue House.
After that, it was smooth sailing. My followers conquered the Blue House and its surroundings, and I managed to catch the president just as he was trying to escape in a helicopter.
The president was a man with a protruding belly.
‘He’s very different from the real world. What was this guy’s name again?’
The president’s jowls quivered as he spat out words of anger at me.
“Don’t, don’t think that just because you’ve captured me, you’ve conquered South Korea! The owner of this Republic isn’t me, but the people! The people will capture you and put you on trial, and the people will not forgive you.”
There was fear in his voice. He knew I was going to hypnotize him.
“I know. That’s why I’m going to start with you and gradually take control of the ministers, the National Assembly members, the Ministry of National Defense, the police, the prosecutors… well, all the guys at the top.”
And I was already controlling the people from the bottom up through brainwashing.
“Y-you madman! Even if you conquer Korea, the whole world will not tolerate you!”
“Well, thank you for your concern.”
I grabbed the president’s head.
This scene was probably being broadcast live. Now the whole nation would know about my abilities. But it didn’t matter. Even if they knew my abilities, they wouldn’t be able to stop me.
“Sugella!!!”
〈Hypnosis is successful. However, the target partially resists. The duration of hypnosis is 12 minutes and 45 seconds.〉
The president knelt down. His eyes, devoid of reason, praised me.
“Long live Apostle Yoo Jin! Long live the Red Sea Church! The Republic of Korea will be saved by Apostle Yoo Jin!”
The president then looked at the camera filming him and shouted.
“Citizens! The demon inside me fled in terror as soon as it saw Apostle Yoo Jin! Citizens! Believe in the Red Sea Church! Only glory awaits our holy Republic of Korea!”
Holy Republic of Korea.
That was the name of the Republic of Korea that I would rule.
I liked it very much.
“Believe in me! Sugella!”
I then hypnotized the president’s chief secretary and everyone else working in the Blue House.
I planned to gather the president and a few others with strong mental fortitude separately and hypnotize them again later.
“Oppa, is it over now?”
“No. It’s just beginning.”
I led my followers to find the key figures of the Republic of Korea.
‘I ordered 10,000 followers to seize Incheon Airport, so they won’t be able to escape by plane. They might escape by ship, so I need to order the Incheon Port area to be blocked as well… and the highways leading to the provinces too.’
The first people I encountered were the National Assembly members. As soon as the incident broke out, some of my followers had attacked the National Assembly members and brought them to me.
“I, I will submit to you. So please, just don’t hypnotize me…!”
“If you were a stunning beauty, maybe… but the loyalty of an old man like you is worthless! Stop talking and become my slave! Sugella!”
“Ughhh…!”
The National Assembly member became a loyal slave.
Most of the National Assembly members begged for my mercy, but there were some who didn’t.
“……Hah. Do as you please. But the world will never go your way!”
“Sugel…. No, wait a minute. You bastard.”
I grabbed the kneeling National Assembly member by the hair and lifted him up.
“……?!”
“You bastard… you’re the one who was involved in the celebrity sex scandal?! How dare you touch my women?! You’re not even worth being a slave!”
*Thwack!*
I stabbed a small knife into his thigh. The truth of the sex scandal? Just the fact that there was a scandal was enough to make me feel unpleasant.
“Kuaaaaaa!”
“Shut up. If you touched my women, you have to pay the price. You arrogant bastard…. Don’t think you can die peacefully. I’ll make you regret being alive. Followers! Take this guy away and throw him in the torture chamber to be tortured for the rest of his life!”
“Yes, Apostle!”
“P-please save me! Apostle! I was wrong! Please save me!”
The National Assembly member, grabbed by my followers, begged me, but my eyes didn’t even twitch. I watched him get into the van and then turned my gaze to the side.
Another National Assembly member was trembling. Clear tears streamed down his face.
“Long live the Red Sea Church! Long live Apostle Yoo Jin! I will become a follower! Please accept me as a follower, Apostle!”
“Hmm. You want to become a follower…. I like that. Will you really become a devout follower?”
“Yes. Yes! I will become a devout follower and follow the Apostle’s words!”
“Wise choice. But to become a follower, you must learn at least the basic doctrines! Senior followers! Take this man and teach him the doctrines to make him a follower! He’s very motivated, so it won’t take long! Of course, don’t torture him! He will become our comrade of his own free will!”
“Yes, Apostle!”
“Thank you! Thank you!”
The National Assembly member thanked me repeatedly and left with the followers.
‘He’s willing to be brainwashed, so there’s no reason to stop him.’
I was going to have to use hypnosis a lot anyway, so I needed to conserve my magic power as much as possible. There was no need to use hypnosis on someone I didn’t have to.
‘In a few days, he’ll be brainwashed and bowing his head at my feet.’
I started moving again, leading my followers.
Tanks and armored vehicles that had been driving on the road blocked my path. Soldiers armed with rifles poured out of the armored vehicles and pointed their guns at my followers.
My followers stepped forward without fear of the military.
Kill us if you dare.
The soldiers, overwhelmed by their momentum, hesitated.
“Yoo Jin! Are you, the so-called apostle from the sky, going to hide among your followers! Come out now!”
A colonel shouted through a megaphone from the top of an armored vehicle.
I felt annoyed.
I was busy, and some insignificant guy was picking a fight.
“Sugella!!!”
〈Hypnosis is successful. However, the target partially resists. The duration of hypnosis is 39 minutes and 16 seconds.〉
“Apostle! We will move out of your way immediately! All troops, disarm and clear the path! No, we will escort the Apostle!”
“…Colonel?!”
“Sugella!”
“That’s right, Colonel!”
My followers followed behind me, singing hymns.
•••
One week.
That was how long it took for me to conquer the Republic of Korea.
Of course, it wasn’t a complete conquest. I had hypnotized all the key figures leading the Republic of Korea, but there were a few exceptions. Islands like Jeju and Ulleungdo. But that was only a matter of time.
What bothered me the most was the resistance.
The resistance was formed by citizens who didn’t want my rule. They were trying to kill me, along with military units that hadn’t been hypnotized or brainwashed.
In fact, I had been the target of an assassination attempt by them this morning. I had tried to turn them into my loyal subordinates with hypnosis to attack their base, but… they didn’t know about their base.
‘They don’t know about me, so they didn’t even inject any information.’
I was thinking of just killing them, but then I ordered them to kill their families and commit suicide. If I killed them too easily, they would underestimate me.
“Apostle! It’s a disaster!”
I frowned and glared at the pig-like president who had entered the room while I was having sex with an actress in the Blue House presidential office.
“What.”
“Five million citizens have gathered in front of Gwanghwamun and the Blue House to protest! They are demanding Apostle Yoo Jin’s execution!”
“So?”
“…Huh?”
“You interrupted my sex for something like that? Do you want to die?”
“It’s five million people! It’s dangerous if we stay like this! We should evacuate from here first or…!”
“Crush them with tanks. If that doesn’t work, bomb them with fighter jets. It’s a shame about the beauties, but… it’s annoying if this keeps happening, so it’s better to deal with them decisively. So they never dare to rise up again.”
“B-but if we do that….”
The president trembled and rambled. I thought he was completely hypnotized, but it seemed like he was a little lacking. I was about to hypnotize him again when my smartphone vibrated. I glanced at it and saw it was Im Yuna. I smiled and picked up the phone.
“I didn’t expect you to contact me first.”
-……I know you’re about to do something crazy.
“Oh, was there a bug? I was too lazy to check for bugs. But why?”
-I’ve been watching your actions. Even though you’ve conquered the Republic of Korea, you don’t seem to have any intention of leading it.
“There’s the president.”
The president, who had caught my gaze, prostrated himself on the floor.
-He’s too busy watching your every move to do his job properly. Besides, he’s a good person, but he’s not a capable one.
“Now that you mention it, I guess that’s true. Should I get rid of him? But why did you contact me? Are you trying to become my woman? I’d welcome it, but you know the situation is very different from a week ago, right?”
-……I’ll give you everything. I can even pledge my loyalty. Just give me the real power.
“Why? You didn’t seem like a woman who craved power? Did something change in the meantime?”
-If things stay like this, millions will die. I can’t just stand by and watch that happen. You can hypnotize me too. But only on the condition that you don’t touch my personality or values.
“I like that. But I don’t plan on hypnotizing you. That means I can’t trust you easily.”
-…What do I have to do?
“Kang Tae-sung. Kill him today and bring his corpse to the Blue House. Then I’ll trust you.”
-…….
After about 20 seconds of silence, a gunshot was heard.
-…I’m on my way now.
Im Yuna said in a hoarse voice.
I knew what Im Yuna was thinking.
‘She’s trying to sacrifice herself to save more people.’
To do that, she even killed her own comrade. In a way, she was a scary woman.
‘And she’s the kind of woman who makes my dick even harder.’
•••
Im Yuna came to the presidential office carrying a body bag. She carried the body bag with one hand as if it was nothing. As a system user, her physical abilities were far superior to those of ordinary people.
“……This is the corpse of Kang Tae-sung you wanted.”
“How did it feel to kill your comrade?”
“……It’s something I never want to do again.”
I opened the zipper of the body bag. There was Kang Tae-sung’s corpse with a bullet hole in his forehead. His eyes were wide open. He must have been incredibly shocked by Im Yuna’s betrayal right before he died.
‘Kang Tae-sung has the ability to create clones. But there’s no chance this is a clone. Clones disappear after a certain amount of time, and they disappear even if they suffer a fatal wound.’
The fact that the corpse hadn’t disappeared meant it was the real body.
“What about the clone system ability?”
“It disappeared somewhere. I didn’t have time to recover it… and I don’t have the manpower.”
“Wasn’t Elpis supposed to send support?”
“Elpis… canceled their support. They gave up on Korea. Because your abilities are too dangerous. But… other countries won’t stay still. They’ll move soon. They’ll try to kill you. Especially the United States.”
“They’re just going to try.”
I took her to my room. I stood her in the center of the large room with a huge bed.
“Now, let’s test your proof of loyalty one last time. Take it off.”
“……Yes.”
Im Yuna took off her clothes with a blank expression.
A week ago, she would have blushed, but not now. Her eyes were like rotten fish eyes.
‘I feel a little disappointed. Should I have fucked her back then?’
But then again, the current atmosphere suited her well.
Im Yuna took off her suit, her stockings, and even her black underwear, becoming completely naked.
Her skin was fair and supple. Her F-cup breasts were shapely with pink nipples. Her abs were smooth. Her pubic hair was neither too much nor too little, and her pussy was pink. Her thighs and buttocks were firm.
My dick, already naked, was hard as a rock.
“Jae-kyung.”
“Yes~!”
“…!!”
Yoo Jae-kyung, who had been quietly hiding in the dark corner, revealed herself. Wearing a red mesh negligee, she grinned at Im Yuna.
“Seol-kwang….”
Im Yuna’s eyes widened in surprise. As expected, Im Yuna immediately recognized that Yoo Jae-kyung was Seol-kwang.
“Hmm. I can see why Oppa likes her. Her face and body are so outstanding that I’m jealous.”
“Jae-kyung, you know I cherish you, right?”
“Of course. Shall we begin?”
“Begin.”
Im Yuna’s body floated into the air.
