Blue house

“Are you aware of your situation?”

“What is my situation?”

what kind of situation am i in

Did you prepare a surprise party without me knowing?

I shook my head and said I didn’t know.

“Actually, I got a call from the S-class hunter Jeok Rachal. Ask Noda to visit her ship once. Perhaps he recognized Noda as being within his sphere of influence.”

“okay?”

It’s a red flag… It was a familiar name.

It wouldn’t have anything to do with Shin Noda other than ‘The Dark Knight’, so what’s going on?

“The skills I showed when I was fighting the Chinese in the last tournament were clearly above grade A. So everyone who knows it knows.”

what does that mean

The part that takes a little bit is to relate ‘The Dark Knight’ to me, but there is no real evidence.

It’s because the fighting style is different and the ‘Dark Knight’ skill was hardly used.

“As long as I’m an A, the world won’t let me go. If you don’t rely on a certain faction, it will be difficult for you to live.”

“You mean, if I don’t get on the line either way, I get attacked by both?”

“Yes. It is unavoidable unless we become an overwhelming force.”

seemed to know a bit.

In a nutshell, it was kicking the ladder of those who had a vested interest.

If you come into your own power, you will only be able to lower a rope.

By analogy with the original knowledge, the power that can be selected is either the government or the inner circle.

If you enter one, you will be checked by the other, and if you do not enter both, you will be checked by both.

Blocking entrance to the gate so that I can’t achieve S-class, or secretly killing me.

Then one question arises.

“No, then these A-class heroes belong to the association. They don’t belong to the government or the inner circle?”

At my question, Yang Min-seo laughed and continued explaining.

“It is superficially neutral, but from Grade A and above, it has already taken the line behind the scenes. Mostly towards the inner circle. It is because the government has abused its power to summon the Awakened in an emergency.”

“Right. Then, is the president giving me medals and even eating to accommodate me, who is presumed to be an A-class?”

After listening to Yang Min-seo’s explanation, I can understand for sure.

It wasn’t just that he was able to win over Jiang Yi-Chen to promote national prestige, but there was such a thing.

‘Actually, I also came to the Dark Knight. The government seems to be in a bit of a hurry.’

Then there is only one conclusion.

“I don’t want to belong anywhere.”

I’m not going to live here for the rest of my life, and if I defeat the Demon King anyway, I’ll go back.

Besides, I have to defeat the Demon King, but I have no intention of getting involved in such a tight fight.

And I was the only one who had no problem with being checked by both sides.

He already has quasi-S-class force, and thanks to his knowledge of the original, he has a rough idea of the location of the gate that will appear in the future.

“Neutral, nice to listen to, but you’re not riding the line just because other people are stupid?”

Yang Min-seo said with a worried face.

The expression on his face was so tender that I felt that he was genuinely worried about me.

“I know. But it doesn’t change my opinion. I will become stronger in the future, and I will put it under my feet, whether it be the government or the inner circle.”

“Fufu. It’s also a novel answer.”

To my words, which may sound a bit arrogant, she replied with a small smile.

“Nevertheless, please come to the meeting with Jeokna-chal. If you don’t go, you’ll think you’re on the government’s side. And is it a privilege to have your face with someone like that?”

There was a hint of regret on Yang Min-seo’s face as he said that.

‘Did you want me to depend on you?’

Read at n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲

Judging from the behavior Minseo Yang has shown so far, it was possible to infer that.

As neither the government nor the inner circle, I unfortunately had no need to rely on her.

“Fufu. If you talk to the people there at the Blue House, you might change your mind… .”

Yang Min-seo finally made a meaningful remark.

***

Blue house.

I stood before the president.

When I saw a person I had only seen on TV up close like this, I felt a little awe.

‘This man is the ruler of fifty million Korea.’

On the surface, he is just an old man with gray hair, but he is a person who has risen to the top of the Korean political arena such as the battle of the bully.

“As a freshman at the academy, Shin Noda-kun, has made a great contribution to the national athletic capability and development, so I am conferring the Order of Sports Merit Blue Dragon.”

“thank you.”

As I had practiced in advance, I bowed my head, and the president hung the medal around my neck.

He raised my head, grabbed my hand, and posed for a handshake.

click click.

The camera flash hurt my eyes.

“Our Shinnoda-kun has made a very big achievement. It is a great achievement to defeat Jiang Yiqian, who is considered the best in China.”

“haha.”

While many people, including reporters and public officials, were watching, the president gave me a compliment.

I smiled awkwardly and responded.

After the in-camera show, we went to the banquet hall and started having dinner.

At a round table, the president, the president of the Awakened Association, me, and Yang Min-seo were seated around the four.

And some reporters were taking pictures for the press from a distance.

“Fortress Noda-kun, how popular are you? There is an O-tube channel that I often watch.”

The president took out his smartphone, manipulated it for a long time to see if he could see it well, and showed it to me.

A provocative thumbnail written in colorful letters on a black background stood out.

“The shocking reason why people in China and Japan collapsed after seeing the level of the Korean Academy (I want to be a Korean!)”

The video was about a Korean Academy student, Shin Noda, who won the first place in China’s Awakened and ate it, and the neighboring countries trembled.

“… … .”

I’m at a loss for words.

‘Did I show you for a laugh?’

First of all, I don’t know why Jiang Yiqian is not 1st in China, but 1st in the first year of the Chinese Academy, and why the Japanese suddenly collapsed.

“There are a lot of channels these days that summarize current affairs like this, and it was a great help to get to know Shinnoda-kun.”

“Oh, are you seeing this?”

The president of the Awakening Association closed his eyes tightly as if he was familiar with something and looked at me.

“haha. Thank you for your praise.”

The president gave me a warm look.

If I had not known the circumstances, why would the old man want to go there, but after hearing Min-seo Yang’s explanation, it was very burdensome.

The meal was a Western-style course meal.

The way you eat one and the next comes out.

Appetizers came out first.

“I hope Noda-kun will continue to work hard for the country and the people. Oh, how about coming in after graduating to create hero management in the country?”

“I will consider it.”

The president spoke to me in a relaxed tone like the friendly uncle next door.

I also had Yang Min-seo’s warning, and I refused because I didn’t want to be tied down anywhere in my nature.

“haha. Think about it. The road to becoming a true national hero, not just a business card called a hero.”

“We will review it positively.”

“Shinnoda-kun is the national equivalent. Even if there is a mori boat that shakes you, please do not forget your patriotism and conduct yourself well.”

“Yes. I don’t know what to do with compliments.”

But even though he must have noticed my feelings, he persisted.

The president threw such subtle flirtations throughout the meal, and it was so inconvenient that he didn’t know whether the rice was going into his mouth or his nose.

It was only after the last dessert was served and the meal was completely finished that we could be liberated.

“Mr. Shinnoda. Can we talk for a moment? It will be over soon.”

An aide who appeared to be in his 40s appeared and asked to talk separately.

I was very bothered, but I followed him.

The story he brought out from the empty room was a continuation of what the president had said earlier.

“I called you to introduce the management you just talked about.”

“Oh, yes.”

For once, I decided to listen to the story.

When I came out saying that I didn’t want to listen, I even received a medal and did something in my position.

“First of all, we are basically treating you as a ‘major’, that is, a level 4 civil servant, and the treatment gets better as you get older. In addition, the pension is not integrated with the civil servant pension, but is created separately and only pays 30%, and 70% is covered by the state subsidy.”

It’s a bit strange to hear.

As you get older, your treatment gets better.

Even if you don’t have an understanding of the Awakened Society, are you trying to make a good salary?

“Aren’t parts such as salary and treatment divided according to salary rather than skill?”

“Yes, it is. So Shinnoda-kun is better. If you join as the first jockey at a young age, you will be able to play S-class in the future. Later, after retiring, I can be appointed as a minister in recognition of my experience.”

“ah… … .”

I felt the limits of the non-awakened here.

There is no understanding of the Awakened Society, which implicitly has the rules of the weak and the strong.

No matter how different the riders are, is there an A-class or B-class awakener who can stand orders from a C-level person?

‘Should I just stick to the inner circle?’

I didn’t want to get involved in a fight, so I tried to stay neutral, but if one side was at a bad level, it didn’t seem necessary.

If this happens, it’s not a fight, it’s just an adult breaking a child’s arm.

“Yeah, let’s think about it.”

“Yes. But you’ll have to make a decision quickly. Now, the VIP just told me to put it in, so I’m putting it in, but you’ll have to come in through an open job later.”

The aide in front of you seems to believe that the management they envision will be successful.

It may be attractive to C-class or D-class Awakeneds, but B-class or higher will never enter unless you are shot in the head.

I said goodbye and left the Blue House.

Yang Min-seo’s car was waiting in front.

“How were you? You were talking to each other.”

On the way home, Yang Min-seo and I talked about what happened at the Blue House.

“I wasn’t comfortable. In a situation like this, I’ll just stick with the inner circle or whatever.”

“Fufu. I knew that. What can I say? I can’t figure out the topic. If you look at the world, over 40% of the places where the government has already passed to the Awakened.”

The president and the aides below him were too comfy.

Democracy is a system established in a world where all human beings are equally shot to death.

Also, not all countries were democratic even in such a world.

How much less is it now that the superman cuts through the mountains.

I can see why she said that if she went to the Blue House, I might change my mind.

“I’m going to have dinner with Jeok-nak-chal tomorrow evening, would you mind? We decided to go to Incheon and take a certain cruise.”

“Uh, what. Are you fine.”

To be honest, I’m anxious to use the enhanced ‘Succession’ skill, but I’ll have to be content with just a quick taste tonight.
