I stopped being a warrior and became the strongest

If you’re scared, you’re dead.

He didn’t say much.

Amazing keeps talking.

“Whatever the Foremouth Treaty is, isn’t it the first time an overseas clan has visited it in person since it was signed? ”

“That’s right.”

“I don’t know what they’re in for.”

I was tilting my head.

He slowly loses his luck.

“Maybe it’s the nest. ”

“Nest? I’m… sorry. I have to find it.”

Let’s apologize like we’re suddenly sorry.

JooJoon shakes his head, smiling.

“You have nothing to be sorry about. You can’t always get good results, right? If you fail, if you fail again, you succeed in the process. ”

“You haven’t earned a dime in days, but, Dojun. It’s not that I don’t trust you, but is there really a nest? ”

“If it didn’t exist, I wouldn’t even try to find it. ”

At that time, I frowned as if I agree with JooJoon’s words.

Woong

Suddenly, the phone rings.

“Wait…”

A faint smile appeared on JooJoon’s mouth when he saw his name on his phone.

“I should get going.”

“Where are you going?”

The sudden words of Juju make me tilt my head.

“Where fun happens. ”

“.. funny stuff? ”

*

Inside the Grand Hotel in Seoul.

“ · · · ”

There was a faint tension between the two groups looking at each other with the table between them.

“I didn’t expect you to schedule a visit so soon, haha. ”

Director Kim, who is in front of the Taiji, opens the package.

“Since the city is a city, I don’t think it’s a good idea to start yelling. ”

“ · · · ”

There’s a search going on in and out of sight.

Xiao Mai brings out the big talk.

“I’d like to ask you about the specific number of nests you’ve found so far. Rumor has it there are nests everywhere.”

Let me look at him with my eyes wide open.

Director Kim shrugs and shakes his head.

“Well, I’m not sure, but can you pinch it? ”

Interpreters are busy doing their part.

Xiaomi asks again.

“There’s a saying in China: The good thing is that we have to share it with our neighbors. You think you’re a nearer neighbor than anyone else, as you’re a long way from home. Don’t you think? ”

“Really? Are there any neighbors the size of China? ”

Let’s just leave Director Kim alone.

The thin eyelids flinch and draw a half moon.

“It’s not worth hiding. It’s not a matter of hiding. ”

“ · · · ”

Xiao Mei is right.

The eyes of each country already planted in Korea are still spreading information in secret.

“What kind of information do you need to provide so that we can provide our reference points in line with that information? ”

But even with Xiaomai’s glittering smile.

Director Kim shakes his head firmly.

“Do you need to set a baseline? The key is the stake in the nest anyway. ”

Director Kim keeps talking after fixing his glasses.

“I’d rather ask this side. What can you give us in return for giving away the interests of your nest? ”

“ · · · ”

Maybe it’s because of Director Kim’s aggressive question.

Xiao Mai smiles for a moment without a word.

“As you know, there have been all kinds of monsters, such as nests or disasters that have appeared in Korea in the past. But strangely enough, many of those incidents happened right here in Korea. ”

“I was.”

What the hell is he trying to say?

Director Kim frowns and stares at Xiaomi.

“And I know that because of such disasters, Korea is spending a lot of money to repair the damage. ”

“ · · · ”

As well as what Xiao Mai said was not very wrong.

Director Kim nodded.

“So what if our own country, or The King Clan, did a substantial amount of financial damage? ”

Director Kim smiles slightly at Xiao Mai’s offer.

“Thank you for worrying about the economic aspects of your country, but that’s okay. Of course, we have suffered significant damage, and we have suffered significant financial loss, but it’s something we can do on our own. ”

Looking at General Kim, who demonstrated his intention to reject the surrounding.

Xiaomi smiles faintly.

“That’s not all. We’re also going to share with you a new human research project that we’re working on. ”

You mean the new human research project? ”

Xiao Mai proudly nods at Kim’s trembling question.

“We have a lot of interest in Awakeners. And there’s also a study going on about them. ”

You did human experiments on the Awakened? ’

“.. so what happened? ”

“Fortunately, we are able to perform well. Show me.”

When Xiaomai’s orders came through.

Suddenly, the janitor behind him opened the case and showed me something.

That’s…

What was in the case resembled an apple, meaning that it looked like a fruit.

“What’s that? ”

Xiao Mai smiles at Kim’s question.

“This… is a forbidden fruit that can nurture the new human race. ”

“.. Yes? ”

According to Xiao Mai, Director Kim looks at him with open eyes.

Does that mean… you can awaken once you eat that? If what Xiaomai says is true…

The world may face a big change again.

We don’t have enough samples yet, but given that there are no reports of any more Awakenings…

This is a situation where Awakeners are no longer likely to show up.

But if there is a mistake of that restraint…

Does that mean we can continue to cultivate the Awakened?

“Now that you’ve created something like that with fewer Awakenings…”

Director Kim, who frowns.

He soon abandons his personal feelings and continues to think.

‘But why would he show us such a magnificent object? ’

There must be a reason why you took something that wouldn’t be weird even if it was classified.

Is there an improvement or is there something wrong with it? Even so, because of the interests of the nest… ’

It was too suspicious.

“If what you say is true, you’ve developed something truly… spectacular. But that’s why it’s even harder to convince. ”

“I understand. Of course it’s hard to convince. ”

Xiao Mai nods her head as if it were natural.

“But there are some side effects to the fruit of this ban. ”

“Side effects…? ”

When Director Kim asks, Xiaomi nods, smiling.

“If you take this fruit, you will die after a certain period of time. ”

“… to die? ”

“Yes, you will die. ”

Xiao Mai glanced at the fruit as if it was nothing.

Keep talking.

“Well, I’m still working on that part, but I think it’s only a matter of taking off the human skin for a little while and becoming a new human being, and that’s a penalty you can take, right? ”

“ · · · ”

Director Kim has lost his words and is silent.

“It’s amazing how artificially awakened Merritt can be.”

If there’s a death behind it.

Who would want to take that?

“The things you’ve said so far… are you sure? ”

“We’ve already done experiments on prisoners, and we’re doing them again. ”

“ · · · ”

Director Kim is drawing a dark line in his forehead.

Xiaomi smiles and asks.

“What do you think? Isn’t this enough to claim the interests of the nest?” ”

“ · · · ”

Enough?

Of course it might be.

“This… doesn’t seem like a decision I can make on my own terms. ”

“Of course it is. Of course, you have to post reports and get approval. However, we ask that you make a decision as soon as possible, as we have shown you this much confidential information. ”

“Until when? ”

Xiaomi’s eyes curl faintly as she glances out the window.

“Please answer before the sun goes down. ”

“ · · · ”

Director Kim looks out the window along Xiaomai.

A deep embarrassment spreads across his face.

“.. Yes? Are… are you kidding me? ”

“Are you kidding me with this? ”

“Do you think that makes sense?! ”

Xiao Mai smiles brightly at Kim’s elevated speech.

“It’s not a world of common sense. And you’re talking about common sense? ”

“ · · · ”

Director Kim stares into Xiao Mai’s eyes.

“Is this about the screw coming in tomorrow? ”

“It does have some impact, but we just want to get a quick answer. ”

‘The quick answer… was to try to tie up the meeting before the screws came in. ’

It seemed like he wanted to end the meeting before the American side came in.

Director Kim was spewing insults into his heart.

Xiao Mai wrinkles.

Chuck.

Then the Awakenings, who appear to be his attendants, block the president’s door.

“.. what are your intentions? ”

“Oh, I didn’t mean anything by it. I just wanted to show you what kind of angst this is. ”

“.. are the interests of the nest so important? ”

The commander’s words reveal the pupils between his eyes.

“Of course it matters! The only route you can get to an item in a situation where you can’t get it anymore, so of course you have to take advantage of it. ”

“ · · · ”

Director Kim continues to remain silent in Xiao Mai’s words.

“Damn it.”

He swallows his saliva looking at his unresponsive cell phone.

I need you to call me right away so I can figure out what to do.

I’ve already reported the situation.

Cell phones are still down.

In the meantime, time passes.

“We’re running out of time. ”

“ · · · ”

Director Kim is staring out the sunset window.

“If you don’t want to make a decision, how about I help you? ”

“.. how? ”

Director Kim stares at him as if he were asked by Xiaomai.

“Let’s cut the formal talk short and have an informal one. ”

“Informal conference? ”

“Yes, we’ll open up combat diplomacy! ”

Xiao Mai’s sudden suggestion made his face visibly distorted.

“War diplomacy…”

Since the emergence of the Awakenings, we’ve been trying to stop wars between countries.

It’s a new diplomatic policy that’s been introduced internationally.

“Diplomacy where each country presents its own terms and when the winner is chosen, only the winner’s terms are accepted.”

Director Kim, who was silent for a while, struggles to open his mouth.

“There is a way, I’m sure, but I know you need a U.N. secretary to establish combat diplomacy.”

“Haha, don’t worry. I’ve already brought her. ”

I’m afraid Xiao Mai’s words will end.

The door of the chairman opens and an old man dressed neatly comes inside.

“ · · · ”

I can’t believe they brought a secretary.

Director Kim confirms the senior citizen is truly an official of the United Nations.

His face gradually hardens.

“You’ve already brought an officer… you don’t think he wanted this?” ’

Maybe he’s trying to create this situation.

Could it have been the result of the withdrawal?

If that’s the case…

Director Kim was spewing insults into his heart.

The secretary starts to put things in order.

“As many of you already know, I’ll give you a brief explanation to help you understand. The conditions are simple: you present the conditions to each other, and then the delegates duel. If the winner of the duel is chosen, the loser must accept his or her conditions unconditionally. ”

“What are the losers’ terms? ”

An officer who smiles at an agent’s question.

“History only remembers the winners. Losers have no rights. ”

“ · · · ”

Strange tensions are spreading in the president.

Xiao Mai suddenly applauds.

“Thank you for your kind explanation. History only remembers winners… That’s a great thing to say. ”

“ · · · ”

Director Kim, on the other hand, distorted his face.

‘To be honest, it doesn’t matter if you say no. ’

It’s just…

‘If this side refuses… they will begin to exert invisible pressure. ’

Last but not least, the Awakenings using the fruits of the forbidden are secretly sent to the country.

It could have been a brutal massacre.

‘Maybe he looked over there and showed his forbidden fruit over here.’

It’s hard to get my feet out.

‘Since this is the case, we should have a surrogate. I just don’t know who to…’

“I’d like you to introduce me to a representative who’s ready. ”

“Of course. Ranoha! ”

When Xiaomai wrinkled her hand.

A gentleman standing behind him takes a step forward.

“This is our proxy. ”

“I’ve confirmed it.”

“ · · · ”

Director Kim swallows a man’s saliva.

Ranoha, I heard you were the number two Awakener in China, but you’ve always been the number one in China before. I thought, “Why have you brought me to this place?”

It was clear that they were after this situation.

“Don’t you have an agent? If you don’t have one, you can have a party. ”

“No, it’s…”

Director Kim can’t even answer the secretary’s question.

“Decide before sundown or engage in combat diplomacy. Either way, you have to choose. ”

Xiao Mai casually looks at Director Kim like that.

“Damn it.”

despite the rapid reporting.

The phone was still silent.

“.. give me… a moment.” ”

“Haha, there’s still time until sundown. Whatever it takes.”

“ · · · ”

Unlike relaxed Xiao Mai.

Director Kim starts calling someone who is busy.

“You’ve been keeping an eye on things, you know… but they’re getting ready. I know it’s rude to ask this of you, but… please… please, as your proxy…”

Director Kim bowed his head and showed his eagerness.

“Who are you trying to summon?” ’

He seemed curious for a moment.

I soon lose interest.

‘No matter who you call, the result will not be different. Eventually you’ll have to accept our offer. ’

“I’m sorry, this is informal diplomacy between governments.”

[If I win instead, hand over the research data to me along with those fruits.]

“O-of course! So please…”

When Director Kim’s voice sounded small.

[I see.]

With a heavy voice flowing through the phone.

Tuk

I can’t get through.

Hmm.

Suddenly, Director Kim’s face brightened up.

Shao Mai tilting her head.

Who the hell did you call? Did you really sing it? Does the Korean government have a vigilante who can defeat Ranoha? ’

Maybe it’s the smile on Director Kim’s mouth.

There was some anxiety, but Xiao Mai remains relaxed.

‘I don’t care who comes. Even if the Bone Dragon or the Bone Dragon were to come, the result would be the same… ”

Duck.

Xiao Mai is still thinking.

Suddenly, the president’s door opened, and someone walked in.

Kim opens his mouth with a bright face.

“This is our agent, the Bone Dragon. ”

Director Kim is scared to death of what he said.

“ · · · ”

Disgrace spreads across the face of everyone in the president.

The end.
