Solo Swordmaster

#907. I hope my choice wasn’t wrong

* * *

No matter how talented you are.

whether it’s lucky luck

Whether you were born with a golden spoon or not.

It’s a world where you can never live comfortably.

As you go through life, it is inevitable that you will experience a major failure or be cornered several times.

That’s why it’s time to test a person’s true ability to see if they can escape such a predicament or how to turn that predicament into an opportunity.

from that point of view.

he was so unlucky

It wasn’t that he lacked talent. Because he had the ability to run at least one country.

It wasn’t that I wasn’t lucky. Anyway, thanks to luck, I was able to rise to the top of the country.

One problem.

it was the environment.

His situation was already…

No, precisely because the situation of his country was so broken that it could not be rectified with the efforts of a single individual.

So it was.

President of the Republic of Korea.

Why did Shin Myung-woon fall into conflict?

It was indeed a deep and painful agony.

Why did he have to make this choice? It was to the point of hair loss due to stress and resentment.

However, as if the person who is about to fall from the edge of the cliff has no choice but to cling desperately to the snake’s tail rather than the rotten rope.

There are times when you have to make a choice no matter how bad it is.

After a long and protracted conflict.

He finally made up his mind.

At this moment, he was facing the consequences of his decision.

“…I’m ready.”

[Already?]

“You’re the one who asked me to hurry up.”

[Still, I thought it would take a few more weeks…. Goryeoin are really surprisingly quick at anything.]

As if it’s really amazing.

He was not at all pleased with the soft admiration of his opponent’s voice.

Instead, I was just anxious and anxious.

“What are you going to do from now on?”

[Ah, you don’t have to worry, we’ll take care of the aftermath.]

“Do you think it’s possible that you don’t care?”

[If you’re nervous, why don’t you focus on other things? You must have a lot of work to do.]

“…Are you kidding me?”

[Of course, I’m serious.]

Say goodbye.

Shin Myung-wun, who almost shouted at the communicator he was holding, managed to calm his excitement.

And he said it as calmly as possible.

“I don’t know if you know it, but I’ve crossed a dangerous bridge with this.”

[Whoops, there’s no way you wouldn’t know.]

As if you heard a really interesting joke.

with a light laugh.

she said softly.

[Because if the fact that you cooperated with us is known, you will be destroyed when the entire world, including the Seven Dragons, is chasing us.

] It is the end of our country.”

[Probably so. Contrary to their cute faces, those princesses of the Seven Dragons are cold and cruel.]

“…”

[You know that, so you must have decided to cooperate with us. Isn’t that right?]

At her point.

Shin Myung-woon had no choice but to remain silent.

The present day, when no great power cannot help but decline without the protection of the Seven Dragons.

There was no future for the Republic of Korea, which was withdrawing even the business of the Seven Dragon Group, let alone protection, by destroying Limon.

Especially since the economic collapse has already begun.

As time goes on, the situation gets worse.

it’s going to get worse

The Republic of Korea, which was once called the world leader, will be poorer and more hungry than any other backward country.

As long as the absolute rulers of Limon and the Seven Dragons rule the world, that is forever.

So it was.

Why did Shin Myung-woon have no choice but to accept this risky deal?

Even if it was a gamble that could ruin the country if it failed, this was the last chance to save the Republic of Korea, which was already strong in national luck.

“If things go wrong, don’t forget that we don’t know.”

[There is nothing to worry about. Even if we get caught by the Seven Dragons, we have no intention of holding on to you like water ghosts.]

“It’s easy for anyone to make up their mind.”

[After all, it’s the job of priests like us to live as we have decided.]

“….”

[Then, may the Lord bless you.]

Whether they succeed.

or fail on the contrary.

There was no need to worry about the retaliation of the Seven Dragons.

It took a long time to look at the communicator that was cut off after the words mixed with the sound of light laughter and short greetings.

Shin Myung-woon closed his eyes.

And prayed.

‘I hope my choice wasn’t wrong…’

* * *

Put down the communicator.

She turned slowly.

Then, with a gentle smile, he opened his mouth.

“Finally, we are ready.”

“You worked hard.”

“Nogoranyo, that’s rather what I have to say.”

A woman in a fancy dress.

Holy Lord Johanna smiled at the muscular middle-aged man.

“If the creator lord hadn’t let the spirit beasts dwell in the fallen spirits run wild, we wouldn’t have had time to prepare.”

“It’s all thanks to the wisdom that the Apostle of the Stars has passed on.”

“It is also true that if it were not for you, we would not have been able to restore the legacy of the Golden Lord.”

『Game Master』.

A skill that the golden lord used to control the spirits corrupted by the virus.

However, that skill originally belonged not to the golden lord, but to his granddaughter and an acrobatic fox who was the sub-guild leader of the Midas guild.

After the fall of Midas.

We want to ask for responsibility for the collapse of the guild.

Or aiming for the legacy of the golden lord.

An acrobatic fox who hid his tracks to avoid people flocking to him like a swarm of bees.

Finding her, borrowing her skills, and restoring the virus that had already disappeared was no easy feat.

But they did it anyway.

To mass-produce Dreamroids by using the repairs that the spirit beasts have a grudge against.

The reason why the machine called Dreamroid was created in the first place was thanks to the combined power of the Creator and his Seven Arcs.

“In that sense, it is a bit regrettable. I never thought that the situation would be resolved so quickly.”

That’s why Johanna made a sad face.

If only it was a little bit late.

What if thousands of Dreamroids were mass-produced?

Even the Seven Dragons would have had to spend a lot of time and effort to stop it.

Because Dreamroid was organized faster than expected, the result was disappointing compared to the investment.

It was a very regrettable result for them, who were already suffering from a lack of funds and supplies after the collapse of the World Federation.

Even the corrupted spirits were purified, especially in that the movement in the wilderness became much faster and more comfortable.

“…As expected, it seems that any fate will be ruined if you get entangled with that swordsman.”

“Iknow, right. It would have been nice if the swordsman had understood and supported our cause…”

He seemed really sorry.

Even with a gentle sigh.

Johanna had no false hopes.

It was because he knew that he could not agree with Limon, the God of Destruction, even though he was confident in persuading Limon, the God of Destruction.

“Well then, let’s hurry.”

So she urged the Creator Lord.

It’s within the expected range that things don’t go according to plan, but it was Limon who exceeded even that prediction.

As long as Limon couldn’t be tied up in the Indian Territory, it was necessary to pull the execution of the plan as far as possible in order to minimize other variables.

Likewise, while the Creator Lord, who knew the fact, silently bowed his head and followed.

Johanna prayed quietly.

“Everything according to the will of the Lord…”

The remnants of the World Federation.

The last survivor of the Liberation Brigade.

The magician and the new ruler started to move quietly but quickly.

-To save the world.

* * *

“It’s something I always think about…”

The silver-haired girl with oil on her left arm.

Yekathrice snapped the joints of the prosthetic arm together.

Then, after wiggling and turning the wrist 540 degrees, he said.

“Isn’t my brother too unlucky?”

“What are you talking about?”

“No, think about it. Isn’t there a place where you don’t go through accidents?”

At Yekathrice’s shrugged shoulder, the blue-haired woman smiled bitterly.

“That’s because he goes around solving incidents and accidents.”

“well. Even taking that into consideration, it seems that if my brother intervenes, the incident will get twisted and the scale will increase.”

“That’s…”

Rose put on a troubled expression.

From the London crisis, the revival of demons, the war in the Amazon, the runaway of fallen spirits, and so on.

To be honest, among the things Limon got involved in, there were more cases where things got bigger than everyone expected, rather than things that ended smoothly.

In just a year or so, a series of great events occurred in which even absolutes would die one after another.

No matter how much Rose wanted to defend Limon’s fortune, she couldn’t deny Ekathrice’s words.

Rather, it was an expressionless white-haired girl who raised an objection.

“It’s not bad luck. It is destiny.”

“fate?”

“That’s right. Lee is the guardian deity of mankind. It is natural for humanity to become entangled in events that will endanger them.”

The London Crisis that almost destroyed London.

A predator that appeared in Africa.

Demons who descended to Russia, etc.

If Limon hadn’t intervened and resolved it early, their respective cases would not have ended to the extent of breaking the balance with the World Federation.

It must have been a catastrophe that would harm mankind as a whole.

In that sense, the fact that Limon was able to prevent it at the beginning of the incident was inevitable rather than coincidental.

At Ainsha’s prophetic words, Hasneti spoke coldly.

“That doesn’t suit a man who cuts his fate.”

“It is all the more so because it can cut fate.”

“Huh…. You mean that you chose your own destiny by knowing in advance every time something like that happened?”

“You don’t need to know even the smallest details. The important thing is that Lee chose his destiny as the protector of mankind.”

“That’s a very convenient story.”

“…Where is the convenience? In the end, it means that if the world is not peaceful, he will have no choice but to be bound by the incident.”

Looking at Rose, who frowned slightly.

Catherine giggled.

“So that’s better. Oppa, don’t you think interesting things will come on its own if you just stay still?”

“That’s the story of people like you, Yekathrice, who regard even the fight for the fate of mankind as entertainment.”

“well? If you’re my brother, I don’t know about the battles where the fate of mankind is at stake, but don’t you like fighting against powerful enemies that threaten mankind?”

“To agree.”

“Even you, Hasneti…”

Rose let out a sigh involuntarily after hearing the words of the Seven Dragons’ most lunatic and warmonger.

It was unavoidable.

Just as she wants to protect a peaceful world so that Limon can be at peace.

He knew that this was also how the two of them loved Limon in their own way.

It was the same when I saw Ainsha, who was expressionlessly messing around with Krembo, as if she would be happy if she could be with Limon.

So it was.

Why did Rose look sideways instead of delving deeply into this matter?

“Anyway, is Li Qingyu’s information clear?”

“Yes, I am sure.”

The black-haired girl who called them.

Li Qingyu immediately answered Rose’s question.

Then, with a smirk and a meaningful smile, he spoke.

“Because I bought the president of the Republic of Korea in advance to use it at a time like this.”
