Hermit Wizard

348. Epilogue (2)

* * *

The door to the soundproofed conference room was opened. Going inside, Kim Kyung-hwan once again realized that the world had changed.

The number of people awakening as wizards has increased dramatically since the incident. This was the first time the Channel crisis occurred. There has also been an increase in the number of awakeners, but the events that have taken place in a row have made it clear that some countries, including South Korea, are no longer hiding the presence of wizards and have actually increased the number of wizards working for the Korean government. This level of soundproofing magic has a level of people who can spread it permanently.

The capital increased, but the level also increased. Recalling the fact that he was once a government wizard, he deserved to be called the Great Wall.

It is ironic that Jung Kyung-hwan Kim is no longer part of the government.

“Ah, are you here! ”

When Kim Kyung-hwan gave his face, people of various nationalities and races stood up with examples. I sent a gesture of respect and intimacy, as if I would not miss the opportunity.

“It's a great honor to see the Wizard of Transcendence! ”

I think he's an ambassador to France by checking on the medieval white man speaking. Representatives of other countries raised their hands as if they were not going to lose. Kim Kyung-hwan smiled bitterly and grabbed everyone's hand in turn. The representatives of the countries shook hands and smiled brightly, saying it was the greatest joy and glory. Kim Kyung-hwan went to Sang-seok, thinking that it was either a sincere act or an act to float himself, which was burdensome and excessive.

The handshake continues while walking. Kim Kyung-hwan finally read the complex emotions on the face of a woman with her hands out.

Most people in this seat hide behind a mask of welcome and hospitality. Kim Kyung-hwan, who tried to hide it, but couldn't hide it perfectly, noticed the fear they felt for themselves. But there was only one slightly different emotion in her eyes.

If other ambassadors were looking at herself as if they were dealing with another dimension of existence, which is logically incomprehensible, she is the face of the fear that exists in reality.

I checked the nameplate.

The Australian ambassador? ’

The reason why she only reacted differently was also quickly known.

I whispered magically to others around me.

“Magic, you've awakened. Very recently.”

She nods very lightly, maintaining a smile that spans like a part of her makeup.

“You don't have to be confused. It's a natural phenomenon.”

Facing Kim Kyung-hwan's outburst across the wall would be an unbearable intimidation for her who has just awakened as a wizard. Fear of facing a huge mountain that would crush itself.

Finally, Kim Kyung-hwan sat down with a secret whisper. Exchange the eyes of Choi Soo from the next seat. I was younger than I've seen recently.

‘You almost look like my age now. ’

It was a remarkable pace of rejuvenation.

Despite the age difference from the minister, in some respects, the two quickly became acquainted because they had similar backgrounds. Kim Kyung-hwan thought that the next person to cross the wall would probably be Huangsoo Forest or a spectator. I have never said that I fear that the Sulphur Forest will injure my pride, but it was also believed that the minister might be ahead. In terms of talent, there is no one to follow the Yellow Forest, but there is an overwhelming volume of aggression that makes individual abilities and efforts meaningless.

What the hell is Black Giraffe feeding this rejuvenated old man? He said to the minister with the question buried in his mouth.

“Let's get started.”

The minister nods.

Today was Yoon Min Joon's response to requests from around the world. The Korean government called together the ambassadors in an intermediary role, and Kim Kyung-hwan was here to convey Yoon Min-jun's will and answer their questions instead.

Choi Soo-soo, representing the Korean government, opened his mouth.

“The Wizard of Transcendence, I will speak on behalf of all those gathered here. We sincerely thank you for responding to our request and for shining this place. ”

Kim Kyung-hwan felt the chicken flesh rise. It was a different tone than usual as it was an official position.

“Oh, there. Minister, you can skip the title now. Just call me a name. ”

“Yes, Wizard Kim Kyung-hwan. ”

After a while, Kim Kyung-hwan and others shed an unmistakable grin. Turn your face back neatly and speak to the attendees.

“As you know, our government has communicated to his apostle, Wizard Kim Gyeong-hwan, a myriad of questions that have been conveyed through official and informal channels from around the world. And I decided to ask for that answer here today. ”

Kim Kyung-hwan said.

“Yes, it won't take long, so I'll get right to the point. ”

At his words, the ambassadors of each country felt nervous. They all look at Kim Kyung-hwan's face and wait for the words to fall. Observing the serious atmosphere, Kim Kyung-hwan recalled the blurred delusion he had held two years ago. Although I came back a long way back, I felt absurd rather than happy that it had come true to some extent. The old Kim Kyung-hwan enjoyed the delusion of turning his back and obeying his words as the nations of the world turned their backs. The sight in front of my eyes seemed to be worth the fantasy.

It was Kim Gyeong-hwan's psychological state that held up the delusion and the situation now and accepted it if there was anything else.

He quickly stretches out his words as if he was trying to do something cumbersome and burdensome.

“The person I'm serving is, of course, every country and every other organization on Earth, and I don't plan on asking or giving guidance to any individual. At the moment, you're putting up a clue. ”

The feeling of relief and surprise crossed and flowed into the conference room. Kim Kyung-hwan said while observing the change.

“That doesn't mean you don't plan to change my instructions at the earliest opportunity. It means that nothing will change in the time that you can give meaning to. ”

Kim then decided to convey his message a little more frankly. In the first place, the government wanted to somehow contact Kim Gyeong-hwan because he needed to know his weight.

“He suddenly formed a unified global government to govern the whole world, and he didn't intend to reform the entire political system, the social fabric, the values of humanity at all. ”

After all, their concern was this.

Several months ago, hundreds of open channels disappeared in unison, as promised. On that day, many other strange phenomena were witnessed throughout the earth. Recognizing the unidentified intruder who was approaching from outer space, the terror of the entire human race remained in everyone's memory like a scar. And the silver curtain that soared into the sky and protected the planet like it covered the whole world was an unforgettable sight.

Humanity was forced to look at all of those processes as a trick, and only after all the events had ended did the reality become known through certain beings. Humanity now knows a great being that once considered a special wizard, but could no longer be defined by such a small framework.

Governments were forced to be polite and concerned.

It is true that we have experienced a crisis beyond our cognitive reach, and the transcendental existence that saved humanity from that crisis was also true when governments faced one question.

The Savior of Humanity, what will he hope for them in the future if his divine existence is proven for the first time in history? How will we relate to humanity? How should humanity respond?

All the questions involved were based on a sense of purpose that somehow had to form a good relationship with him, and were rooted in the fear that digging to the deeper side should never go beyond the eyes of the transcendent or go back to planting. Leaders have come to their hearts with fearful questions that cannot be ignored.

If the transcendent, who has the power to easily deny everything to humanity, wants to use that power to reign over humanity, how will he respond?

The American ambassador asked Kim Kyung-hwan, who narrated in a bold sentence that excluded any diplomatic investigation, what the ambassador most wanted to hear.

“Thank you. Can I ask you a question? ”

“Go ahead."

“I understand that He does not intend to intervene in the politics, society or consciousness of humanity in a direct or coercive manner. ”

“Exactly.”

“Then I dare ask, is there anything that He recommends or encourages to humanity? ”

Familiar to humanity, almost all the religious gods they have known so far guide man in any way. Give direction on how to live. The Ambassador's question was based on his familiar worldview and religious beliefs.

“If you don't live and govern yourself, are there any clues as to what path humanity should take? ”

Kim Kyung-hwan was silent for a moment. The appearance felt as though the representatives of each country were submerged in their thoughts, but Kim Kyung-hwan was in the process of communicating the question directly to the other.

Shortly thereafter, Kim Kyung-hwan shared the will to ‘come down’ to him.

“As you already know, the person I serve is this dimension. This is the world itself. ”

Everyone nodded.

“Yes, I know. ”

“The world doesn't tell those who live there how to live, what to do, why to do it. He has no intention of normalizing and deciding what to do or not to do. because the norm already exists in your free will. Instead of creating the norms that man should create and define himself, what he defines everyone's life is taking away the future he chooses for himself. All choices must be made on their own. You just have to live your own life, as you have done so far. That's the only thing the world expects. ”

Kim Kyung-hwan thought this was a good answer, but the American ambassador thought differently.

“But what is it that you want to tell us? to the beings who live in him. ”

Kim Kyung-hwan said after a bit of silence.

“I understand rather than his thoughts. I can also tell you what I want as a human being. ”

The Ambassador of the United States of America said with desperation that he did not feel acting.

“Tell me. ”

“I know that some countries have already announced the existence of wizards. ”

Many nod. Kim Kyung-hwan said, facing them.

“The ascension of the soul through magic is a way to move to a higher level. It's going to take a very long time, but there's going to be small changes that can shorten the process. ”

Everything will be easier, easier and faster than ever before, as long as global nuclear support and communication has begun. Kim Kyung-hwan spoke with that in mind.

“Don't hide any more. The transition will continue for some time, but shouldn't we look at it as a growth pain? Don't take away the opportunity to move everyone to a better level. We need to help each other become better. ”

I thought it was too early to talk about integrity to reach the distant future, so I kept it in my mind.

While everyone was thinking about Kim Kyung-hwan's words, the American ambassador opened his mouth again.

“Can I ask you one more question? ”

“Go ahead."

“Is it unlikely that the Pioneer District of Philadelphia will be restored? ”

“It depends entirely on the will of the pioneers. But as far as I'm concerned, they're very unlikely to come back. ”

Then the American ambassador openly expressed his regret.

“I don't know if this can be communicated, but American citizens miss pioneers. I hope they know. ”

“You probably know that. ”

Kim Kyung-hwan knew that pioneers were unlikely to return, but he did not elaborate.

After a few questions, Kim felt that Kyung-hwan had communicated everything he could, and after reading his will, the minister announced the end of the meeting.

The ambassadors somehow tried to share a few more words with Kim Kyung-hwan, but all attempts returned to the bullets.

Eventually, everyone disappeared out of the conference room. From now on, Kim Kyung-hwan and the only person who could stand up to him was South Korea's Minister of Choi Soo. The minister changed his tone in the second place.

“Kyung-hwan, won't the pioneers really return? ”

When I saw someone I didn't know, I was mistaken for talking to my peers.

“Never come back. There's a lot of legislation on that side. They say that what has been in the world for months is a very unusual case. I almost ignored the law because of the situation. ”

Kim Kyung-hwan buried his back deeply in the chair. Mental fatigue came. The experience of crossing the wall and the knowledge of not learning were like springs of water. Kim Kyung-hwan was not used to this position at all. At least the reason I was able to deal with it deliberately was because my insight and mental strength became stronger as I crossed the wall.

Kim Kyung-hwan lamented, despite being so dreamy in her past delusions that I didn't really fit into this position.

As the Minister said, it is a pity.

“It's not just American citizens who miss pioneers. The South Koreans will do the same. ”

“There are a lot of gifts they leave behind. ”

“Did you hear that solar power, which completely replaces coal and oil, will be commercialized by next year? This is ridiculous. A new technology of that size, whatever it is, basically takes years to embrace and apply, right? But the pioneers handed over their skills by caring about our level so that we could shorten the process. They transcended the common sense of humanity. ”

“The extent to which technology within its limits does not unduly affect the civilization of that race in exchange for temporarily occupying the territory of the other race. ”

What is the level of technology that can have an excessive impact? I was also afraid to imagine.

The minister who looked closely at his face said:

“Aren't you upset by the reaction of the ambassadors? ”

Their attitude was clearly showing what scenarios each government was most afraid of. The new God who appeared before them, who proved his existence, overturned all order and took power.

Kim Kyung-hwan shook his head because he had almost guessed.

“No, it can't be. ”

“Understand. Since that incident, even those who have not signed a contract with him feel instinctively different. He said that he was born with the first voice of great will, but he felt that there was some fundamental connection behind it. Even ordinary people who haven't mastered magic. ”

Kim Kyung-hwan also listened and knew. The souls of the present state, which do not circulate the world's nucleus, felt the existence of an awakened nucleus.

“They're just anxious. ”

The minister used to shrug and raise his shoulders.

“Then excuse me first. I have a dinner appointment in Jeju. ”

“Where are you going, White Rock? ”

“Yes.”

Choi Soo-soo also acts as a communication channel between the residents of the backlog and the Korean government.

The people of White Rock chose the path of mixing into the human world in the long run, rather than creating a new shield to isolate themselves from the outside world after they were freed from the hypocrisy they were serving. The village of Backrock is no longer located within the Hanasan or remote shield. It felt surprising to Kim Gyeong-hwan, who knew their attitude well, who was only interested in training.

Of course, the choice was easy for Kim Kyung-hwan. When it becomes common sense that the existence of those who cross the wall is more widely known to ordinary people and that transcendence is one of the choices to reach, more people will strive for it.

“You don't have enough body. ”

“I wish I had the ability to make myself like that old man. I'll get Song Hyun a bottle of liquor on the way, so let's have a drink when you're done. You're not drunk anymore, are you? ”

“Yes, you do. ”

Kim Kyung-hwan smiled and emphasized the spectacle. When I talked about whether Kim Kyung-hwan's body became younger and influenced the spirit of the minister, or whether the mental world had matured beyond the walls, I would forget his age. I just felt like a close friend.

Looking at his back, Kim Kyung-hwan thought. It is clear that he will have to live for many years to come, and that most of those who know him now will be caught up in the flow of years and depart from him. Minister Choi Soo will be the few friendly friends he can know for a long time to come.

Thinking about the faces of many people who would leave first, Kim Kyung-hwan corrected his mind to fall in love. It was foolish to miss the present happiness by worrying about the future misfortune.
