King of Shadows

Is it for your own protection? Or is it a decision to make up for it? There are many thoughts in my head, but if I don't ask the parties, they won't even start. After staring at Murek for a while, he opened his mouth casually.

"Let me get this straight. Why did you sell my information?"

"It was just one of the necessary steps. The aftermath of the Shadow King is great. And selling it is a little subtle. It was just a precaution to make sure that they didn't cross the line. Of course, if you're upset, I apologize."

Murek, who did not lose confidence even in front of Sihyun, made his argument. I was called here on my tail, but there was no regret or hesitation in his expression. Just by letting him know that he is the King of Shadows, he was able to attract a lot of capital. It was allowed by the state implicitly.

Moreover, Murek was confident. I was confident that it would pass quietly. He didn't want to stand in front of you. He couldn't have raised the case that much.

"I gave them the minimum amount of information to stop them from moving recklessly. and stopped it from leaking out. In fact, there was no spread of Se-hyun's information in their mouths. And that's all we're trying to accomplish. If it hadn't been for this, they would have moved to the middle heat. The situation was more chaotic than it is now."

"You manipulated them with minimal intelligence."

"Yes, it is."

"You don't want me to hear that and move on, do you? If I knew their movements in the first place, I could have handled them without informing them of my identity."

When Shi Hyun got to the point, Murek coughed. It was true that I acted for the benefit of the country, but there was no demonstration on it.

"There was actually no harm to Se-hyun. I admit it wasn't enough to report, but I don't think it's appropriate to do things this way."

"I revealed my identity because I didn't want to see you cross any lines. It was also because I believed you would be able to control my information. But now the disappointment is only getting bigger. I sold my information to people I didn't even know."

"To be precise, they were victims of a disaster. He left the deal and had a cause to know."

Tuner and Melin didn't know the silver dusk Alchemy Society had reached the line, so you could say that. Like Murek said, it could have stopped at a shoddy tail or a trifle.

But it was always just a family. If time had passed without Sihyun noticing, the actions of the Silver Twilight Alchemists would have gradually crossed the line and eroded the surroundings. Xi Hyun's expression hardened even more because he thought that his hand might have gone crazy to the Tagnaria of Hailer continent. All he wanted was a sincere apology, not even a disgusting excuse to listen.

He had no choice but to hide his identity. His fight was always fierce and merciless, giving birth to the inevitable sacrifice. As soon as the identity was revealed, the hateful victims were forced to appear.

Then he couldn't avoid friction either. I can't take care of people who run blindly. Sihyun hid his identity in advance to avoid such a situation because it was clear that the damage would be immense if he collided with them.

"It's annoying."

The Deputy Secretary of Defense moved, but the United States couldn't have known. If you really wanted to announce, there were plenty of opportunities. But they didn't open their mouths. Until Sihyun finds the evidence and puts it in front of them. It was said that everyone was in agreement.

To date, she has done her best to stand on the side of humanity. Even if they were annoying, they passed it around smiling, even if they paid more than they needed to. But coming back to him over time was a fuzzy trick. Sihyun admitted. The forgetfulness was fatal and sweet. Humanity was not afraid even though it knew that Sihyun was a great old being. I did not have a thankful or wondrous idea.

There was silence in the commander's room. Stuart shudders with a smile as the atmosphere turns cold.

"The deputy minister is very worried. I tried so hard for Si-hyun, but the results are so bad... But can't you just look at my face and move on? I'll take good care of the deputy minister. And we will pay you a fair wage."

They were not the ones who crossed the line, so they would have judged that it didn't matter if they found out. If you catch a weakness, you'll think it's enough without catching it. The more I think about it, the more I see black innards. He frowned. If you have received something, you must give it back. Sihyun opened his mouth lightly.

"Bounty. Yeah, money's good. I then want half of what the United States is earning with localization."

David and Stuart and Murek do not keep their mouths shut, not to mention the unthinkable words. Xi Hyun's answer was beyond their imagination. I want a price that no one can pay.

"Do you know how big it is?"

"Well, I think that's enough to endure your ridicule... isn't it?"

Localization was the technology that sparked the resource revolution. The cash volume alone was hundreds of trillions to thousands of trillions. Moreover, it did not slow down after growing like that. The potential scale was unthinkable. It is a field with immeasurable possibilities. Once the two rivers hit, the American economy, or the global economy, could have shifted.

"And make a list of those who have sold my name and benefited from it and report it. Don't try to cheat me. I'm gonna do some digging myself. With resources far more powerful than any of you. If there's one missing... well, you can count on it."

It seemed like a storm was raging. Stuart thought it would all be over if he lowered his head. And so far, I've solved it so well. Murek can't help but sweat as he misses his expectations. The situation was out of his hands. In a bad way.

Stuart takes a deep breath and shakes his head. While it was true that he was willing to pay a reward, his claim was far from reality.

"I don't have that kind of authority. I'll take my place on this one, so..."

"If you wanted to play games with me, you should have come yourself. Did you think I'd quietly pass around me? You only have one chance. Get it."

"Haha, you're a good joker. I can't possibly have that kind of power."

"Oh, really? Then I have no choice but to stay strong until you do."

I might have slipped away smiling another time. But Shi Hyun was on his way to deal with the wrong victims because of them. This way, I couldn't relax my mind.

If something like this happened in a place he couldn't see, and he kept moving on, things would definitely get bigger. However, the number of people who crossed the line would increase exponentially. So I had to trample it when I saw the sprouts of the stool.

Xihyun lifted his index finger and sliced it up and down. Those who didn't know what the action meant only tilted their heads. Sihyun must have done something, but he didn't know.

Within a few moments, many debris fell from the sky, as if releasing their curiosity. It was as if a rain had fallen. They stared at the small debris falling through the splash point and window and swallowed dry stew. I instinctively realized that something absurd had happened.

First, Stuart wakes up and opens his mouth with a trembling voice.

"What's going on here?"

"It's nothing. One of the military satellites in the United States fell by accident."

What did he just say? Murek was instantly fascinated. It wasn't that I didn't understand the sound that reached my ears. I just stopped thinking about unreasonable violence. I knew great old beings were dangerous and powerful, but I didn't expect them to move like this. Stuart and Murek had no choice but to change their judgment in the event of an outrageous disaster. Sihyun was not as gracious as they thought.

"If I can't give you the amount of compensation I want, I have to take something that's worth it. Don't worry. One or 10,000 won't be too hard. Oh, it's a coincidence. It has nothing to do with me."

He brazenly grunts as he reveals that it wasn't his doing.

"If you want to make excuses, fine. I won't stop either. It'll be fun to see who picks up the whites first."

"I just told you..."

"Yes, of course."

A second military satellite fell over the sea as he gestured. David was zinc in the essence of modern science that poured into a single cloud of rain.

"I see you didn't teach me anything interesting. You seem to have found a hand that will be easily discarded, but unfortunately, the one you have found hides a far more monstrous nature than that."

"... What do you mean?"

Murek squeezes his neck and vomits the question, overwhelmed by vague anxiety.

"Backwards in their tracks, they were a group of Cultists. It was also closely related to K'Tulu. Even one root with the Brotherhood, would it be easy to understand if it were a non-exaggerated group?"

After realizing where he had sold the information, Murek pondered.

"So cut the crap and pay the price."

Stuart, who realized later that there was only one thing that could calm his rage like an active volcano, contacted the White House. What he put in his mouth after a long time of deliberation was something that he had been looking forward to.

"... I understand."

"Humans are fools and repeat the same mistake. That's why we need a vessel to embrace their guilt. It's not good for you or them to solve problems with random violence. I admit that I needed a hard solution this time..."

A clumsy but caring voice. It was not a reprimand or insult, but a nagging mixture of worries. He looked up and saw that he was in a dream.

The creature who spoke to Sihyun was as large as the resemblance mountains. The appearance of a mixture of octopus and dragons was strange and strange. The green body, which consists of wings that look sharp and full of elasticity, created vague fear and fear just by looking at it.

The six eyes, arranged in triangles, were covered with golden light. He frowned at the appearance that reminded him of Crook. There was only one creature like Crook.

"K'Tulu?"

Reflexively speaking, a strange presence shakes its head.

"I miss that name. But not my name. My name is Ktanid. K'Tulu dropped it in order to gain full malice."
