Chapter 1 – 0. The President’s Male Prostitute (1)
It is twilight.
The sun setting over the horizon is very beautiful.
The reason why the scenery we see every day touches our hearts so much is because our lives are also coming to an end.
“Rebellions in various parts of Brullin are being quickly suppressed.”
“The military authorities delivered the news that the great President himself is stepping up to suppress it.”
「Meanwhile, the spokesperson of the SS pointed out the black orchestra, a secret society in which high-ranking officials in the government participated, as behind the incident…… 」
Propaganda broadcasts on the radio relayed in real time what was happening out there. Sensing that our revolution had failed, I deciphered the code coming in through and through.
“A soloist from the Rosengart district reports to the Revolution Headquarters. Nine districts in Brullin were occupied by government forces. Comrades in the remaining three districts, including the headquarters, preserve their lives and plan for the future. The troops led by the main officer will defend their current position and fight to the death.”
“This is the Rheinburg Observatory, Headquarters respond immediately! In the skies in the direction of Luneburg, the Führer’s direct command sortied. Ten dragon beasts are heading there now! Request immediate response from the nearby flying dragon squadron!”
“A detached unit is urgently sending a message from the Tohoku Sea coast. Beatrix Adler’s survival has been officially confirmed. The Fuhrer is still alive! Please give me a response order!」
Hundreds of communication channels are cut off one by one. Nine times out of 10, the reply that I typed hard on is gone without even arriving.
I turned up the sound of the radio while watching the magic panel fade with the sunset.
Attack, Capture, Occupy, and Recapture…….
Everything is over. The assassination, which involved dozens of people, eventually failed, and the government forces, which regained the central point of the Führer, extinguished the fire of revolution every moment.
「This is breaking news. The SS authorities have just issued a statement by His Excellency the Great President.”
“I will listen through the voice of Heinrich Heinrich, the commander of the SS.”
Soon, the cold and cold voice of the faithful dog echoes through the wires.
「Dear citizens, I, Beatrix Adler, have a message.」
“I received a report this morning that some of the country’s leadership are plotting a subversion.”
“Currently, troops gathered in various parts of Brullin without permission have occupied the city, and the guerrilla group who tried to assassinate me was caught and is being wiped out in the place where I was scheduled to inspect today.”
Bernhard Brühllin, in this capital called the City of Glory, there are no more revolutionary troops left. Likewise, her guerrillas who attempted to assassinate her on her eastern front would have been annihilated. Because the communication channel that was cut off long ago supports it.
“The rebellion of the wicked lurks all around us. What they seek is peace and prosperity. And this proves that this country has finally stood before the ordeal it has put off.”
“Will you surrender or resist?”
“I have never had the experience of choosing to surrender in the face of any unprecedented crisis or desperate crisis. For true courage comes from uncompromising justice in the face of such oppression.”
「So, citizens of Bernhard, unite in times of crisis. Lock the door tightly and cut off those traitors.”
“Because I will personally take care of those who commit evil karma!”
The end foretold earlier is approaching.
“As of the present time, martial law is declared throughout Brullin in the name of Beatrix Adler, who was nominated by the people and declared by the state.”
Soon, all channels of the revolutionary army were cut off. Left alone, I was lost in contemplation as I looked at Wolseong, which had come to me lonely. The night sky seen from the open view of the old deck of the official residence was truly fantastic, and it was the best scene to capture before the end of one’s life.
“Jeongwoo ball.”
Behind the window, a man approached from the room and pretended to be there. When I turned my head to look at it, there was a familiar face of the enemy.
Heinrich Heinrich, commander-in-chief of the Waffen SS.
“Did Beatrix send it?”
“He is below.”
A cold, eerie handsome man, he approached and put his hands behind his back. He opened his mouth looking at the same place as me with his sharp four hundred eyes under a monocle under his radiant blonde hair.
“He ran well. Thanks to you, my men will not be left behind.”
“If you have time to be sarcastic, why don’t you do your thing.”
“I can’t.”
The place we looked at wasn’t just a dreamy night sky. There was also a bloody reality. The garden of the official residence, dyed red, was only hiding it by leaning against the darkness.
“All of them are patriots who devoted themselves to the well-being of their country. Is it difficult to even find time to comfort that soul?”
Heinrich said that while looking at the people who fell on the grass. All of the dozens of corpses were wearing SS uniforms, and they had a mission to arrest me.
“No matter how hard it was for me, it would have been difficult for the rank and file members to defeat this number alone.”
“I guess that’s how Sannim listens to desk bites.”
“Is that really the case with the Prince of the East?”
The guy sighed. The cold, grave tone was really irritating. However, the guy who had no reason to understand my feelings like that made me upset by adding one more word.
“You are truly a companion worthy of His Excellency. It is not a waste to be called Yeongbugun.”
Yes. It’s a fact that I’m revealing now, but I was once the lover of this country’s leader. He was a drifter in another world who was called the prince of the east with a ridiculous title. And it was the resistance that failed to stage a coup with such a status.
That’s not all.
Now he was a failure who had sent away all his comrades who shared his will, and in the end, he was also a coward who barely survived alone.
For the sole reason of being favored by that president!
“Tell me about your business.”
“This is Your Excellency’s order. He was placed on probation at the official residence.”
Only then did Heinrich put down the rolled up order on the table in front of us. And then, before he could even shoot at me asking if it was just that, he also held out a pistol he was wearing.
“There was a message from him telling me to wait patiently until he returns.”
It was clearly meant to mock me.
“Please, behave like Your Excellency’s spouse.”
With those words, the guy who finished all his business turned around and left. And before long, carrying the heavy silence on my back, I shook my head with a deep sigh.
Are you acting like a spouse?
The words he left lingered in my mind for a long time after that.
“Dog sound…… !”
The tantrum soared. The more I thought about it, the more I did. I stood up from the chair I had been sitting on and impulsively picked up the gun he had left behind. He straightened his wrinkled clothes and took out a cigarette. After savoring the smoke he inhaled deeply, he threw the remaining butt at the order.
Soon after, he left the Nodae with his back to the roaring flames.
The interior was the same as always, overshadowing the chaos outside. Befitting the name of the Führer’s residence, he maintained his dignity amidst the majestic sights and tranquil atmosphere.
The long hallway, like a corridor, was carved out of expensive marble and reflected the moonlight. Even in the darkness of the early evening, masterpieces hanging on the walls, carpets placed at every corner, and furniture were secretly revealed like outlines.
So, in the end, he made me face the existence of the woman he had been waiting for at the end.
Her hair, in full bloom like a red rose, flutters in the breeze. As if containing a corrupted ruby, the radiant eyes fixed their gaze on me. The restrained insignia on top of the neat uniform, the beloved sword worn along with the white gloves, and above all, the restrained movements show off the dignity of the Führer.
“Jeong Woo.”
Beatrix Adler, when she opens her mouth lowly, calls her by my name. In that charismatic and husky voice, not even a hint of anguish can be found. It was like that to those who have killed so far, and it will be like that to those who will kill in the future.
“If you wanted a tryst, you found the wrong place.”
Even with her lieutenant at her side, she is so good at uttering her embarrassing words.
I looked at Heinrich, who was standing by Beatrix with a tired expression. Then the guy glanced at her to see what his master was thinking, and he got an answer right away.
“Heinrich.”
“Yes, Your Excellency.”
“I will leave the aftercare to you. Please do your best to prevent this from happening again.”
“I will serve you.”
The guy who bowed his head with an extreme attitude soon turned around. He walked down the aisle with a punctuated step like a brisk recruit.
Finally, in the space where only the two of us were left, I looked into Beatrix’s eyes.
In a moment that seemed like a split second, I was able to learn a lot just by exchanging that one gaze. As skilled in her insight as she was in her own strength, she read my swaying mind and maintained her composure.
And so, for the first time, I raised the pistol I was holding in my stretched hand and aimed it at the front.
“The fire of the revolution has not yet been extinguished.”
“So, are you here to kill me?”
“I’ll clear the accusation of surviving alone.”
“I will prove your innocence.”
Suddenly, laughter broke out. It was not an attitude I dared to show in front of the Führer of the Great Bernhard, but even so, I couldn’t stop laughing.
“What’s so funny about it?”
“It’s not innocence for you.”
This time Beatrix sighed and laughed. It was one of her most common expressions of emotion, and paradoxically, one of the hardest to see.
“If you do, it’s for comrades who aren’t like you.”
“Unlike you, they need my innocence.”
In an instant, the surrounding magic power fluctuated. Soon after, she created a dazzling color in her palms and filled her room with dizzying fantasies. The time we spent together was packaged to the point of distortion, and the truth was misleading.
“Have you forgotten the past and turned your back on memories?”
“There was no romance like that between us.”
“Then why aren’t you pulling the trigger?”
I had no answer. Then, as if Beatrix knew it would happen, she began to reap the illusion.
“Because you love me.”
“I do not love you.”
“Is it really so?”
Her unwavering gaze penetrates my uncertain eyes.
“Think carefully.”
Without fail, the snake-like tongue began to dance.
“Have I ever taken issue with your behavior, even once?”
She didn’t even have the slightest bit of exclusivity, and this woman was sure to do the same for my affair. As if I were Chae Hong-sa, I let in every night a celebrity who was reputed to be a beauty of the time.
But that was never my wish.
“I didn’t reprimand you when I poisoned my drink and poisoned my food.”
“Even the flying dragon was the poison of a sheep that would die, but you were fine.”
“I gave you this body whenever you asked for it.”
“It must have been to share the pleasure.”
I responded with a cynicism and widened my eyes. Ignoring the reverberation of that fantasy that keeps trying to seduce me, I was wary of the remarks of my old love that touched my heart with every word I said.
“Even when I was in collusion with a traitor behind the scenes, when I sold important secrets to an enemy country, and when I instigated a bombing raid on the front line where I was inspecting.”
“Because I should have hit it off. Because it was a fake secret. Because I was ready to intercept.”
“Even when I tried to put a knife in my throat while I was sleeping, I didn’t rebuke you.”
Even so, like a natural thing, I finally admitted it.
It was the obvious truth.
“…… Know.”
I affirmed her words in a lonely voice.
“I know, Beatrix.”
Certainly it was. This dictator, comparable to a queen in a despotic monarchy, cared for me in some way. And that’s why I couldn’t stand it any more.
“That was your way. Giving endlessly to the person you like, and getting rid of those who are even a little out of sight.”
“Everyone wants to clear the obstacles that get in their way.”
“Still, there is a degree. No matter how devoted the women are to me, outside they laugh and slaughter people, but inside they conduct ethnic cleansing. How could that not be wrong?”
Beatrix stared at me silently. The gaze that followed with silence was as creepy as the slowly approaching death, but I had no reason to stop as I had already crossed the line.
“From humans to orcs to elves. There are so many races living in this world that you can’t count with your hands, but you treat only the ones you like. A dwarf kills him by cutting off his limbs, and a wear beast kills him by skinning him!”
“Is it strange to antagonize members of an enemy country? The external enemy is an indispensable factor in bringing about unity within.”
“But you’re Beatrix, you’re the kind of person who can seize power without having to clean up the bloody tribe!”
That’s why I begged so much, but to no avail. Rather, it was just a cold answer like now.
“If you weren’t going to see the end, you wouldn’t have started either.”
Even that wasn’t all. Having done that, he asked if he would stop if he put the world under his feet, and he said this nonchalantly.
If we divide the superiority and inferiority between the races and become a unified society under the superior race.
“Yes, you declared that you would complete another task with the world you built like that.”
I will open a portal to my world and conquer it.
“Didn’t you hate your hometown?”
“The world I used to live in is already full of things other than you.”
Beatrix Adler’s empire largely divides this world into three parts. Her invasion of the Earth is not absurd for her, who will be able to conquer her entire continent in the next 10 years.
In the coming future, we will face catastrophe.
“Hitler, Mussolini, Ceausescu and Mao Zedong!”
Definitely will.
“There’s no room for a lunatic like you!”
“You chatter like a sparrow.”
Having said that, Beatrix thrust her hand into the tightly tightened breasts of her uniform. Wondering what the hell she was trying to get out of, I soon saw her strewn about and turned to stone at her.
“Do you think the bastards you are talking about dare to act like I am a king in front of me?”
Something thin and square fluttered in all directions.
“As a soldier, as a leader, even as a villain.”
A terrible nightmare that was hard to face with a sober mind unfolded before my eyes.
“No one can surpass me.”
It was hung on the gallows in the plaza where the fountain is located, and on the gallows of men with bloody faces and hanging tongues.
In the cramped and dark alley of the execution ground, the bodies of young children who had been stabbed with bayonets were scattered randomly.
Incinerators that left the headquarters of the SS headquarters, and those who ended their lives after brutal torture were thrown into the fire like pieces of meat.
“I understand.”
An elf’s head pulled from the torso down the spine and dangling, an orc’s corpse that was hived by bullets and not even a shape remained, a dwarf’s corpse that had its limbs cut off and skewered along with the torso, and human remains that were crushed beyond recognition.
“Why…… !”
Yeah, what she pulled out were pictures of all of them.
“Why the hell…… !”
My head was dizzy. Nausea came out of nowhere. I thought that I had mastered the evil intentions of the people, but the cruel scenes that I couldn’t even look at were embroidered on the floor one after another.
“Why are you doing this!”
Bang! Unbearable, I pulled the trigger. However, a shot aimed precisely at the forehead bounced off with one gesture from her hand. At that gesture, as if to drive away her troublesome mosquito, with her hand, which had only been touched by one of her gloves.
What kind of harmony did you have this time?
If stopping the shooting had been this easy, dogs and cows would have made the mistake of learning magic.
“Well, the reason doesn’t really matter.”
“What?”
“They challenged my authority. By biting it, I still proved my qualifications.”
For a moment, it was a statement that made you doubt your ears. But I was never wrong.
“It was a very exciting fight for the first time in a while. All I feel right now is the lust to lust after you before this feeling goes away.”
That fact made me unbearably distressed.
“How are you?”
The wicked woman standing in front of me licked her snake-like tongue. She raised the corners of her mouth with a face that made her want to slap me right away. And shocked by that attitude, I felt anger boiling with an indescribable feeling.
“I heard that all males who are threatened with survival feel a strong desire to reproduce. Didn’t they feel lust?”
“Under…… !”
So, after checking the remaining ammunition in the chamber, I flipped the ball.
“Crazy bitch.”
Wanting to give her a taste of her loss, I pointed her gun at my temple.
“You want to do it with me?”
This is the price
“Do you love me that much?”
It is a fair retribution for you who love me and for me who hates you.
“I hate you.”
Countless thoughts clutter my head.
“I haven’t forgotten.”
Still, the woman I once loved.
“For killing my wife and stepping on her daughter.”
It ends like this.
“It took everything from me.”
Beatrix hadn’t responded until the moment she reached for the trigger. Maybe it was because they thought I couldn’t do it, or because they didn’t care about me that much.
Does not matter. Even so, I hurriedly resisted the temptations of life and stood on my own.
“So, feel the pain of losing someone you love!”
Then, with firm determination, he pulled the trigger.
Bang!
This time, a definite pain came. The blackout of consciousness, the tangled thoughts, the last words I heard, the last words, my life, the end, the decoration?
Ugh, ah, ugh!
“…… I know a little bit.”
It’s Beatrix’s sad expression.
