Chapter 116 – Persuasion
Since Jangseowon was finished, I turned my eyes to Seolhwa.
Her battle was already over.
I saw Cheon Soo-ho kneeling in front of Snow White.
He must have been mad with jealousy and suffered a coin blow, and there were traces of blood vomited at the corner of his mouth.
Seolhwa seemed to have easily subdued Cheonsu Lake.
It was an expected result.
However, a bitter expression appeared on her face.
“Death penalty… Please ask for forgiveness from my master….”
“You want him to forgive you? Sister-in-law, why do you not know my heart….”
Baek Seol-hwa persuades me to ask for forgiveness, and Cheon Soo-ho refuses.
Snow White, who was once an alumnus, was unable to resolutely cut down the death penalty.
She was a brother-in-law whom I had known since I was a child.
She had no understanding of her mind.
Cheon Soo-ho, as if he didn’t even know Seol-hwa’s heart, he just kept talking nonsense….
Did he feel my gaze when he handled Jangseowon?
As if Seol-hwa had hardened her heart, her eyes sank coldly.
“Goodbye death penalty….”
“Bear it. I will never beg Park Woon-ho for forgiveness.”
Chun Soo-ho showed a dog-like incision.
Seolhwa eventually bit her lip and cut her sword towards Cheonsuho’s neck.
– Tup.
“I… My Prince!?”
Seeing me grabbing the sword that was cutting Cheonsu Lake, Seol-hwa screamed in surprise.
It is unknown whether she will regret cutting Cheonsu Lake or not.
But she didn’t want to make Cheon Soo-ho do something she might regret.
“I’ll dispose of him later.”
“I, Mr. Nang….”
Seolhwa’s moist eyes were impressive to me.
It also seemed like it was a good thing to prevent Chun Su-ho’s death.
Looking at her face, I wondered if it would be better for me to kill Cheon Soo-ho secretly.
Well… Even dog poop is used for medicine, so Cheonsuho seemed to be useful in its own way.
“Kuh! Yes, this guy… How far must you make me miserable….”
-Puck!
I blew Cheonsooho’s throat pain with my foot and let it be quiet and enjoyed the good atmosphere with Seolhwa.

Chun Su-ho was first locked up in the prison of the survivor camp.
He’s not particularly sealed with abilities, though he might be able to escape.
For some reason, I didn’t even feel like he was going to escape, and he didn’t care if he did.
He had a desire to escape.
“Husband. Thank you for your mercy in saving the death penalty.”
Seolhwa was quite impressed with me for saving Cheonsuho.
Originally, she had planned to organize it moderately and go….
I hadn’t been able to go back yet.
Seolhwa and Im Seong-gu, who were at the camp, caught me.
He was a man in his thirties with short hair.
I did have a face.
It was the face Seowon Jang saw when he came to the school.
Although he wasn’t an Awakener, he introduced himself as a guy who used to act as a lieutenant to Seowon Jang, who no longer exists.
“If Unho leaves, the camp will be engulfed in great chaos.”
“He is right. If you just leave, innocent people will suffer greatly.”
It wasn’t that I couldn’t understand what they were saying.
If I leave them, the camp that has lost its leader will have awakened people competing to take the new leader position.
As I saw it, the abilities of the Awakeners were so high.
There was quite a bit of D grade, but since the dead Jang Seo-won was the only grade above that, it was almost certain that the scandal would happen.
It’s okay to be able to gobble up a group for free and without risk.
I also felt a bit bothered.
I always thought about it, but I didn’t have the qualities of a leader.
Wouldn’t it be closer to a dictator than a leader?
Can a dictator be called a leader?
It seemed like it would be fine for my comfortable hunting, but it also seemed like it would be tiring to have to manage the humans in the camp.
‘It looks like he’s doing something stupid….’
I was worried.
“First, summon the camp officials.”
In the end, I had no choice but to give orders to Lim Guo-seong.

The camp officers are sitting at a long table with awkward and anxious expressions.
I was sitting in the seat of honor with my chin resting leisurely.
And Lim Gu-seong and Seol-hwa stood next to me as if they were assisting.
In the end, I decided to listen to Seol-hwa’s words.
And I decided to be comfortable with this matter.
I thought I would beat him if I couldn’t do it.
“I manage this camp now. Who is against it?”
To be honest, I was thinking of giving up if I objected too much.
Or I would have to do a bloody purge to kill all those who oppose it, or calm it down, but it didn’t suit my personality.
I don’t know if it’s because they showed me something, but they just quietly looked at me.
“It’s okay for the person to leave, so leave on your own.”
Awakeners are valuable talents, but from my point of view, there was no great advantage.
It was more important that useless Buntang seeds disappear.
Now, I’m not sure about the sudden situation, but I know that it won’t take long for the camp humans’ public opinion to turn around.
It was not a task to gain the support of the camp people even if they were supplied with abundant electricity and food.
Of course, I can’t provide it all the time. I had to come up with a self-rescue plan.
Electricity, you just have to roll the camp guys to prepare it.
Ultimately, the problem is food.
This was more tiring than anything like electricity.
There is no comparison between feeding a few people while at school and feeding a few hundred people.
Food is finally self-sufficient. You’ll have to do something like farming.
It is necessary for me not to get tired.
“My name is Jo In-kwang. I was a professor at the Department of Biotechnology at Jihyun University.”
A middle-aged man with an ordinary look and wearing rimless glasses said.
“……?”
All eyes went to the sudden pride of academic background.
“Hey, if you support research, we can make something that can increase the power of the camp.”
“Research support?”
“Do you remember the liquid in the syringe Jang Seo-won used?”
“Did you make it?”
“Yes!! I made it. Jang Seo-won became like that because of the side effects, but with more support, it is possible to make a new drug that can make ordinary people psychic.”
When I showed interest, it was Jo In-kwang who spoke proudly as if he wanted to be recognized for his achievements.
The camp officials were agitated at the word that ordinary people could be turned into supernatural powers.
It’s definitely amazing.
It’s surprising, but I wasn’t very impressed either.
I can do that too… But I couldn’t say.
Of course, my ability was limited to women.
The man… Suddenly felt unwell, and he almost burst out with a twinge of lust.
However, being able to do that was definitely an amazing achievement.
Even in the original world, what was still impossible can be made possible by that human who was a university professor.
“Yeah, what about support?”
“The blue stone… That….”
If it’s a blue stone, you’re talking about a magic stone.
And when Jo In-kwang noticed mehehesitated to speak.
Seol-hwa, who was next to her, said as if she had noticed something, distorting her face.
“Hey, man!!! You mean you were experimenting on a human body!!”
Seolhwa was very angry.
“Ah, oh my…No, of course I didn’t test on an innocent person. It’s enough to support criminals….”
“Ugh! This guy! You don’t even show signs of remorse while conducting such an experiment! Husband! We need to punish him right now!!”
Seolhwa was enraged, but I had no idea whether he conducted human experiments or what he did.
It happened in the original world,
It’s something you might be doing even now.
“This world is full of danger! Humans are in a dangerous state of not knowing when they will go extinct! If this research succeeds, mankind may be able to survive and evolve one step further.”
Jo In-kwang gave a passionate speech.
It’s not that his words are completely wrong.
Looking at the city of spider monsters, giant wild boars, or black wolves, I also feel keenly that it is an environment where it is difficult for humans to survive.
What he’s doing might be helpful for the survival of mankind in this zombie world.
Should it be called the sacrifice of a cow for the sake of the generations?
If I were a true leader
And if it’s for the sake of humanity.
Assuming that what Jo In-kwang says is true, supporting his research for the cause is the right choice.
“I am, sir. This, this… Is a betrayal of humanity. You can’t listen to him!!
Seolhwa seemed to have an idea that I might fall for Jo In-gwang’s words.
She complained to me with an uneasy look on her face.
“If you support me, I will definitely create a new drug, or hope, for mankind!!”
Jo In-kwang’s face brightened as if he thought his persuasion was working.
– Perok!
A magic spear was stuck in his head.
Hehe!!
Seeing that, the camp officials held their breath.
I know that he is a talented person with high knowledge.
I’m sorry for the dead Jo In-gwang, but if I had met someone other than myself, it might have been used more seriously.
However, I was not a leader with a great cause or love for humanity.
And… It hasn’t been that long since the world has changed here yet.
That guy who doesn’t care about human experimentation is certainly not normal.
If left alone, he would have crossed the line for a long time and still remain.
Crucially, above all else, it doesn’t help Seolhwa’s favorability.
I chose the snow story over humanity.
And I can come and go to the original world.
There is no need to rely on a mad scientist like that.
If Jo In-kwang said he could make a medicine that turns ordinary people into supernatural powers, he might be able to make some money if he takes it back to the original world….
In the original world, I was already in a situation where I was not in a regrettable position to do such business.
‘Well… It seems like it’s like kicking off the ladder of hope that ordinary people could become Awakened people unintentionally….’
Still, if he took the research data he did back to the original world, wouldn’t something come out?
Or show it to Sunni.
