Episode 201
The next day, Cheon Myeong-guk cried and accepted the president’s offer to eat mustard.
I was the first to receive this from the Blue House.
“With this, we have overcome a critical juncture.”
“From what you say, it doesn’t seem that difficult.”
“It’s hard at first, but then it’s easy. “I knew this would happen.”
The President grinned with a mischievous smile. Although he seemed relaxed, you could read a sense of relief in it. Other than Cheon Myeong-guk, other people seem to have been displeased with the President.
“It’s not difficult to persuade a smart person. Rather, persuading someone who is unpredictable is much more difficult for me. “I don’t know where it will end up.”
[I think you’re talking about it.]
Oh, really? Probably not.
I ignored Yongyong’s words and mentioned one area of concern.
“However, if Director Cheon becomes president, won’t there be a problem in terms of power structure?”
“Which one do you mean?”
“Isn’t the president a position of power? “I heard that the desire for power is important.”
“It’s important. “I plan to help with that part.”
“I heard that power is not shared.”
“When the time comes, it should become nourishment. I’m the one who will step down anyway. “I don’t regret giving it to someone who will continue his political career.”
I thought power was very cruel, but I thought that such a peaceful succession was possible.
You may not know because it hasn’t happened yet.
Actually, I am not greedy for power, so a similar situation could arise.
[I think it’s because you can cheat at any time.]
Yongyong, you can say that because you haven’t seen what cheating really is.
Can you show me the real thing?
[Is there anything worse here? I’m going to decline.] You
pretend to be strong when you say you’re going to retreat right away.
Based on what I saw of the two people’s personalities, I thought that their relationship could continue well without any major fights.
I guess it depends on the will of Cheon Myung-guk.
“and.”
“yes.”
“You know that the reason I made this decision had a close connection with you, right?”
“I know. Thank you for always caring.”
“I’m glad you know. “Director Cheon’s ability is a skill, but I thought the most important thing was continuity and his friendship with you.”
“I will continue to do well as I am now.”
Because it is Cheon Myung-guk, not anyone else. I have forgotten all the regrets of my last life and am doing well. Even though something happened in the middle, didn’t I give the married man a sweet, honey-like vacation for a month?
I think Cheon Myeong-guk feels the same way.
“Chief Cheon will be even more stressed.”
Are you going to be fine like you are now?
[It seems like you’re the only one who doesn’t know?]
What are you talking about?
[For your information, I understood.]
“….”
Even if you say that, of course I don’t know.

I felt incredibly secure after admitting that I could be a necessary evil.
What can I say, the anxiety that existed in a corner of my mind has completely disappeared.
All this time, I was worried that I would become a villain at some point. To overcome that, we hired Jin Se-jeong and made efforts to improve our image. Nevertheless, there was always a burden in the back of my mind.
However, the moment I realized that my existence was helpful to the country and was acceptable as a necessary evil, I realized that my existence could be considered a full member.
I wonder if I realized that just like civil servants receive guaranteed employment, I too can be firmly recognized as a member of society.
“An unwavering mind leads you in the direction of becoming stronger.”
Berserker looked at me and dared to say that.
Like a crazy guy, he based everything on becoming stronger.
It may be a bit off-topic, but there was nothing wrong with what it contained.
A little doubt in me can cause a hematoma, and shaking causes cracks and shakes me endlessly. Not being able to maintain focus means not having firmness.
“So you can become stronger?”
“…It’s scary to even think about becoming stronger here.”
“You speak nicely.”
“Because you becoming stronger means the world will suffer that much.”
“Isn’t it good to give you more glimpses of stellar moments?”
“I’ve seen too much to just like it.”
At some point, he went crazy saying he wanted to see a star moment.
You can see how treacherous animals humans are by looking at Berserker.
Even if you do it, there will be an uproar, and even if you don’t, there will be an uproar.
“So you don’t want to see it anymore?”
“No, I have to peek endlessly. Otherwise, there is no reason for me to be by your side.”
“Are you feeling confident today?”
“Because I am confident that I will not be easily defeated.”
“really?”
It’s rare for a Berserker to show this much confidence. He was in all sorts of form at first, but after getting beat up, he became much calmer.
I thought he had become a little quieter, but that wasn’t the case. Was he hiding his claws while watching for an opportunity? I thought he was an honest guy, but he turned out to be like a hyena.
The eyes of the guy who made eye contact with mine were burning brightly with the heat of our first meeting.
“It’s difficult if you set expectations and are disappointed. “My hands can be a little rough.”
“You talk like you took matters into your own hands before you were disappointed.”
When I heard it, it was like that.
Well, it’s a mood issue.
“Let’s take a look somewhere.”
I wanted to see why he was so confident.

Today’s battle with Berserker was not aired.
Until now, the sparring between me and Berserker was one of the most popular content, but there were very few cases where superhumans sparred fiercely, and there were many awakened people who were inspired by Berserker’s fierce display against me.
In particular, this content succeeded in diluting Berserker’s villain image.
Since he is being beaten so cruelly every time, it is perhaps natural to feel sympathy for him.
I thought Jin Se-jeong would be good for cleaning up his image, but it was amazing to see the public opinion surrounding Berserker change so dramatically.
Would my image improve if I created content that was a bit embarrassing?
[Are you willing to be treated obediently?]
Of course not.
Therefore it is impossible.
anyway.
Personally, I like Berserker’s striking ability, so I can’t give up on beating him up.
I didn’t air today’s sparring because I thought there might be something wrong with him, but in the end, that decision turned out to be right.
“Did you open one more gift?”
“…okay.”
Berserker, who was lying down in front of me with a miserable appearance, nodded his head weakly.
There was no miraculous change in the game just because he opened one more gift.
Although there was quite a bit of effort, there was no change in the results.
However, there were many differences in the process.
“Is it a hunch?”
“After being beaten so hard by you, I became awakened.”
The gift opened by Berserker is the same intuition as Jeong Da-hyun. Instead, it was a type specialized for instinct.
The only thing I could do with that was to minimize the damage I suffered.
Although it is only specialized for its immediate use, it will be possible to apply it to various fields depending on how it is used. The method we are using now is not bad.
Still, is there anything that can reduce damage? Thanks to you, I was able to hold on a little longer. If you can withstand a few more attacks from me… well, I guess you’ll still die the same way.
[There is no one better at killing than you!]
Yongyong’s words, which I don’t know if they are compliments or sarcasm, are proving my skills.
“It doesn’t work for me, but it might work for other guys.”
“is it.”
“But if you stick with me, you will be pinned for evasion, so it would be better to get a locking partner.”
At times like this, I feel sorry for the existence of the little guy. Well, since there is Lee Chan-taek, there is room for development in other directions.
Berserker must become stronger. That way, you can use it in more diverse ways.
“Please take note.”
After saying that, Berserker sighed deeply.
Why do you do that?
As I looked at him curiously, he smiled bitterly.
“I wanted to know if my daughter was making money by getting beaten like this by her father.”
Why are you talking like that all of a sudden?
Isn’t that the case everywhere in the world? All heads of families live their lives enduring the filth at work. How easy is it to make money? If you don’t want to make others feel bad, it’s better to start your own business.
In that respect, Berserker can make a fuss too.
Are you saying you can’t do it because of me?
“When you rush to kill me, when do you always use the expression of being suddenly beaten?”
“Then isn’t this what it means to be beaten?”
“It’s a fierce battle.”
“….”
Berserker looked at me as if I was puzzled.
Oh, the word omitted there was ‘the outcome is determined.’
It is a fierce battle with a decided outcome.
[He couldn’t hit you even once. You unilaterally used violence.]
Yongyong also took another step.
Anyone who sees me will think I’m sparring to beat Berserker. This was all done in the hope that Berserker would develop even a little faster.
“You may not know it because you get beaten up every time, but it is true that you are improving. So, isn’t that why you open another gift? “If we look at this trend, wouldn’t we open one more gift?”
“Three gifts? “At that point, I think it would be confusing to use the gift.”
“I guess not.”
I know this because I have used several gifts. If it is a good gift, I can use it well in battles without any confusion.
“I was just complaining.”
“Is that so?”
“And I have a favor to ask of you.”
“what?”
Berserker brought the bag that had been left in the corner in front of me, looking a mess. He opened a stylish red bag that didn’t suit a Berserker and laid out a pile of items in front of me.
As I stared at him inadvertently, I felt speechless.
“This is…”
“I’d like you to sign here.”
“….”
I was at a loss for words. Berserker seemed to be similarly unable to meet my gaze.
What Berserker held out were my goods. Starting with key chains, diary t-shirts, mugs, shopping bags, and so on, there was no end to it. I even wondered what the sword-shaped stick that resembled a Nuri was, and it turned out to be a light stick.
I have no reason to be cheered, so why are the light sticks coming out?
“It’s not easy to collect this much, but I guess he’s a real fan.”
Jin Se-jeong appeared through the awkward silence, looked around at the goods, and burst out in admiration.
“There are limited editions and first editions.”
“Isn’t it expensive?”
“It’s very expensive now. But the price is not expensive when purchasing. Instead, it requires a lot of sincerity. “Seeing as how you got this, I guess your daughter is really a fan of Choin.”
“yes.”
Berserker’s expression was gloomy as he answered. You seem very dissatisfied with being my fan.
I guess he doesn’t know that the more he does that, the more I want to meet him.
“I have to tell you that you are my fan. “Please tell me thank you for liking me.”
“I wonder why fans like this guy because he’s pretty…”
“Maybe I have my own charm that you don’t recognize?”
“….”
Berserker must have realized that further conversation would only stop him, so he closed his mouth.
There were so many different types of goods that it was a task to sign each one.
Still, I have to say I’m a fan.
When the signing was finally over, Berserker mumbled and put the goods in his bag. The way he moved his hands was so careful that it was the exact opposite of what he was saying.
I feel like I have a desire for fan service because of that.
As I was quietly burning my motivation, Jin Se-jeong called me in a soft voice.
“Superman.”
“Do you have anything to say?”
“yes.”
Then he handed me a neatly folded letter.
“This is a story for a superhuman.”
“It’s a story…”
While broadcasting on the Internet at Jin Se-jeong’s recommendation, I was secretly doing one more content, which was receiving reports about villains from various places.
Most of it was false, but some of it was accurate, which was confirmed through comparison and succeeded in eliminating several villain organizations.
In the beginning, I went out a few times and then Berserker was in action.
The fact that Jin Se-jeong brought it to me means that it is something I have to deal with.
I looked at the story.
[Hello, Superin. My name is Seojun Lee and I am a third grade student at Hanbit Elementary School. If you write a letter, you will catch bad people, right? The bad men took my mother away and she is not coming back…]
