#880. I’m asking because I’m curious
* * *
I want to die.
no i don’t want to die
Of course I don’t want to die.
But wouldn’t it be easier to die?
Repeating the agony that he had repeated several times a day, he watched TV with shadowy eyes.
[Urgent news. After Baek Soo-man, a member of the Korea National Party, proposed the impeachment of the president…]
[The impeachment prosecution is still in the process of being voted on, but as a result of public opinion polls so far, more than 80% of the people support it, so it is highly likely to pass… .]
[It is unprecedented in the world to impeach a president twice in a row, and with this, the Republic of Korea as a politically advanced country…]
Beep!
Is it because I can’t stand it?
He turned his back to turn off the TV by holding up the remote control.
Then I went to the window and peeked at the blinds.
“The president must step down!”
“Haya hara ha ya hara!”
“What’s the point of raising taxes!”
“What do you mean, what do you mean!”
“We do not need an ipetent and dictatorial president!”
“No need, no need!”
“…her.”
This is probably why when frustration reaches its peak, it is not even despair.
Listening to the slogans of the protesters shouting loud enough to leave the city using high-performance speakers and even amplification skills.
President of the Republic of Korea.
Shin Myung-woon let out augh.
Then, with a sigh, I sat down on my chair and looked up at the ceiling.
‘…That’s not even funny.’
To be honest.
It was not iprehensible.
It was a country that was already at risk as it was excluded from various projects of the Seven Dragons Association.
In addition, the impact of the economic copse that began with the copse of Midas was hit directly.
As a result.
The economy of the Republic of Korea copsed.
All kinds ofrge and smallpanies copsed every day, and the people who lost their jobs formed a sea of people.
Real estate plummeted as people who could not repay their loans gave up their homes and shops one after another, and many people were forced to sit on the streets.
Fortunately, the Republic of Korea was a yer powerhouse with an infinity guild.
Therefore, Shin Myung-woon opened the national treasury and tried to somehow manage the economy with the yers’ huge taxes.
It was like spending money on water, but thanks to that, the confusion seemed to subside to some extent.
…until the World Federation copsed.
‘I shouldn’t have believed what the experts said that the World Federation couldn’t copse this quickly…’ The
World Federation, which was created bybining the 7 guilds, was thergest yer group and an organization thatpeted for supremacy in the world.
the moment they copse.
yers’ ie was also smashed.
It was unavoidable.
The amount of items the World Federation had collected in preparation for the fight against the Seven Dragons was enormous.
Most of them ended up in the hands of the Seven Dragons, but the guilds that were scattered after the World Federation fell were by no means small.
They urgently disposed of the item to seek funds for escape or to give it as a bribe to the Seven Dragons.
Arge number of items are released.
There is a massive oversupply.
The overall market price declines.
Doing dungeons to make up for your ie.
That’s how the supply of dungeon by-products is overrun again.
The endless vicious cycle caused yers’ ie to plummet in just a few months.
Even so, in other countries, the market price fell slightly thanks to the seven dragons buying back items in an appropriate way to prevent economic confusion.
But it was not the Republic of Korea.
After bing Limon’s bride.
The seven princesses, who kept their distance from the Republic of Goryeo, did not bother to rescue the country.
Instead, only minimal measures were taken so that even if the item market in the Republic of Korea copsed, other countries would not be affected.
…by isting the economy altogether.
And the results were devastating.
The prices of dungeon by-products plummeted.
Even the guilds went bankrupt as a result.
Even mid-level yers are in a position to worry about their livelihood.
The chaos that had been prevented by money returned several times more seriously, causing protests and riots across the country.
‘Should I say that it’s fortunate that there are no high-level yers among me?’
Shin Myung-woon was cynical.
There are two reasons why they are silent.
Those with personal connections overcame difficulties by clinging to the Infinity Guild, which had a cooperative rtionship with the Seven Dragons.
Those who failed to do so knew that they were escaping abroad by organizing all their property.
Each high-level yer is a symbol of national power in that each yer is a one-manpany and at the same time an asymmetric force.
So I tried everything to prevent their escape, but to no avail.
Threaten with some kind of whip.
Whatever carrots you present.
Because they haven’t changed their minds.
Some even hired people with the ability to move through space and smuggled them into the country.
‘Is it a matter of course?’
How even a rat can escape from a sinking ship.
There was no reason for talented and smart people like high-level yers to remain in this country whose future had already disappeared.
That is why Shin Myung-woon did not resent them.
Instead, I just thought.
‘…why?’
why did it happen like this
It wasn’t that I didn’t know.
Swordsmith Limon Aspelder.
From the moment they vomited him, the guardian deity of mankind…
No, from the moment they forgot the achievements of the hero who had defended the Republic of Goryeo many times, this country had thrown its future on its own.
Still, he had to ask again and again.
‘why?’
This is something that has been ordained.
whoever else became president.
The fall of this country could not have been prevented.
But why do people hold themselves ountable and resent them?
Are you protesting believing that if you bring yourself down, all the chaos will end and your previous life will return?
And…
‘Why did I be the president?’
can change the country.
I believed that it was possible for me.
At least he was confident that he would be a better president than Han Jeong-guk,
but he couldn’t save the country in the end and was criticized for being the worst president ever.
What is the reason.
after much thought.
he thought
“…it wasn’t like being president.”
lust for power, lust for honor, ambition.
Patriotism Sense of duty Responsibility.
Feeling all the emotions that burned in my heart until a few months ago are sinking like leftover garbage.
It was when he muttered involuntarily.
One voice was heard.
“Do you think so?”
startled
After raising my head.
Shin Myung-woon was taken aback.
The existence of an intruder who appeared without any signs in the Blue House, where President Han Jeong-guk, who was kidnapped twice, reinforced security to the point of being paranoid.
And the appearance of the opponent did not allow him to hide his embarrassment.
“you are…!”
“It’s just fine.”
doubt doubt doubt.
To him with a face full of emotions.
she said with a smile.
“What if there was a way to undo that regret?”
* * *
After the copse of the World Federation.
It was not only the Republic of Korea that was in turmoil.
Although there is only a slight difference.
The absolute monarch and the 10th guild died one after another, and the influence of the downfall was that great.
In the first ce, the territory of the Seven Dragons was better, but the more closely rted to the World Federation, the more chaos had to be swept away.
One way to get out of that mess.
It was only the intervention of the Seven Dragons.
by all means and efforts.
Or through the power of connections.
or just luck.
On the other hand, the country that received the relief of the Seven Dragons Rtively quickly got out of chaos and regained stability.
Countries that actively supported the World Federation, facedplicated circumstances, or dyed intervention due to unlucky circumstances had to suffer enormous damage.
From politicians to business people.
Or even ordinary people.
People tried to look good to the Seven Dragons somehow.
It was to the point of even paying attention to the part-timers who worked for their affiliates, which were not part of the n.
And through those changes.
everyone found out
―The long and fierce war is now over, and the hegemony of the world has passed to the Seven Dragons.
someone said
The iron age is over.
that a new era has begun.
No one knew if it would be the Return of the Bronze Age or the Age of Heroes.
What is clear is that in order to adapt to this changing era, we need to act quickly.
But even in the midst of such chaotic whole world.
Because there was a particrly peaceful ce.
That’s the center of this confusion.
It was the headquarters of Quetzalcoatl.
No matter how rough the typhoon is, the eye of the typhoon is calm.
No matter how chaotic the rest of the ce was, there was nothing to be swept away by the aftermath here, where the princesses of the Seven Dragons gathered.
So that the princesses who suffered internal and external injuries from the fierce battles can recuperatefortably.
All the more so because other members of the n, including his aides, volunteered to do all the work, prepared to die from overwork.
…Of course, the princesses were more enthusiastic about going on a date with Limon, abandoning their recuperation.
The ns were not dismayed.
Don’t lose to other princesses.
Rather, they raised their fever and cheered for their princess.
“Because it is our pharaoh who captures Mrs. Heung’s heart?”
“No matter how hard you try, it doesn’t change the fact that our princess is the most perfectpanion.”
“It’s just a pity that Tata doesn’t know that the swordsmith’s cutest thing is our princess.”
“That’s right. It’s a 100% sure fact that the one who treats her father the most shamelessly is our princess.”
“There is no need to fight.”
“After all, it was our princess who received the ring first.”
The fierce battleground of our princess pride, so fierce that even the atmosphere of the cheering squad she encountered in the World Cup final seemed calm.
In any case, thanks to the efforts of those around them, the princesses were able to concentrate on flirting with Limon.
Except for one person.
“Huh.”
So it was.
A silver-haired girl resting her chin on her desk.
The reason why Yekathrice made such a strange expression.
Was it because the gaze was concerned?
Li Qingyu, a ck-haired girl sitting at the desk, stopped her hand from handling paperwork and asked with a smile.
“Do you have any business, Yekathrice?”
“What?”
The subject who had suddenly burst into someone else’s room and had been watching himself with his chin resting on the desk for more than a few minutes.
Li Qingyu did not get angry even when Yekathrice said that there was no business.
Originally, there is no reason for the actions of a crazy bitch.
That’s why I smiled and smiled.
Li Qingyu asked again.
“Then may I know what you are doing here?”
“I mean, are you watching?”
“I didn’t know my work could be so much fun.”
“It’s not that it’s funny, it’s that it’s amazing.”
It’s literally like a pun.
However, Li Qingyu did not ask if she was making fun of her, nor did she force Yekathrice out.
I just asked with a slightly deeper smile.
“…You mean I refuse to go on a date with a swordsman and focus only on work?”
“Including that, of course.”
Destroy the World Federation.
As long as you have the hegemony of the world in your hands.
The only remaining task is to prosper the Bur.
In that sense, winning Limon’s love was now the most important thing for the seven princesses.
Is it because of the dragon’s monopoly?
Either toy more eggs.
Whether it’s because of personal love.
“I’m asking because I’m really curious.”
So with a meaningful face.
Yekathrice asked in a whisper.
“Li Qingyu, what the hell are you plotting?”
