One of the lights on the shoulder of the power-suit has faded. The radio was a dead end. There was no information on the display. The self-diagnostic program seemed to have worn off.

Oberon changed the mode of operation of the power suit completely manually. Every time I make a small gesture, I feel like I'm forcing a stiff machine. It was like driving a granulator equipped with a hydraulic power handle on an automatic transmission and driving an avante equipped with a normal handle on a five stage manual gear.

Oberon turns back.

The tunnel collapses and the dirt spills out in front of you. It was the soil that covered his lower body a while ago. I don't know if the whole tunnel collapsed or if some of it settled down. He only wanted to be the latter. It's because it's hard to expect structure if it's an electron. It wouldn't be a problem if the rescue team had the ability to pinpoint their position 50 meters underground.

“This is why I made a fuss about not going to the country of the Japs.... ”

A disgruntled voice pops out. However, in the present situation, he only made verse 1 because it didn't help. The most important thing now is to find our missing colleague Theseus.

Oberon looks back at the collapsed passageway and looks at the extended passageway. I don't see spores representing Deadzone. It was weird. I think I walked more than 500 meters, and you're still not dead zone?

Oberon shines a light on the wall. Meaning, there was a pattern painted on the wall. Evidence that they built a tunnel using metal equipment.

We don't dig these long tunnels unless there's money left. What did they build this long tunnel for?

It was more than just one or two strange things.

This was not the first time I had traveled to Japan. However, it was the first time Japanese officials had taken me to the airport in earnest.

On business trips so far, they have face-to-face. I looked at him with a look at the janitor. Their faces were, 'I pay and you take out the trash.' He had no idea how tricky and frightening Beast was. But this time it was different.

Moreover, this business trip was so stupid and simple. If you receive a request for assistance from a foreign country, it usually takes about a week from the time you receive the request to your destination. But this time, it took less than a day. A request came in the morning and left the country in the evening. This has never happened before.

None of the staff involved followed, including a set of communications operator ciphers at all times. The staff following the deployment of the two Bionic Soldiers was the minimum personnel for the maintenance and transportation of the power suit.

Japan has also disallowed remote assistance systems for security reasons. Nevertheless, Oberon was put into action because of his senior decision-maker, Theseus.

Is Theseus gonna be okay? ’

Oberon used a communications system and GPS to locate Theseus. But no response was captured.

Oberon realizes he was left completely alone.

There were only two things he could do.

Sit still and wait for rescue, or walk into the darkness where nothing can be seen.

Oberon rises from his seat. Sitting quietly and waiting for rescue, even if the Beast is going to kill him, doesn't suit his taste. He turned off the light. It was because there was nothing good in attracting the attention of the Beast who was sensitive to the light. I thought it was great. I wanted to take this opportunity to cultivate my ability to roam freely in the dark like a vow during the day.

As my vow told me, I took a slow breath and exhaled. You activate your whole body's senses and quickly take the force's movements around your body. I set off a glittering alert in my head.

A nervous creature can stand out in the dark at all times. The first element to get out of the opponent's sight is to lower the guard first.

Using the method that the vows taught him, Oberon walked slowly. He thought about Theseus.

Codename Theseus, five years ahead of Oberon, was the ace of South Korea's Bionic Soldier.

Celebrity-specific features, bright height, white skin, and an excellent motor nerve with over 10,000 points of hemoclonian. While attending Seoul University, Theseus was a perfect specimen of a man who was conspicuously recruited by the Secretary of State.

I also had a good personality.

Lysander, one of the National Guard's Bionic Soldiers, utterly ignored Oberon. I didn't eat with him, I didn't mix words. Theseus, on the other hand, stood by Oberon and kindly taught him a few things to adjust to. For Oberon, Theseus was like an idol. But Theseus soon began to distance himself from Oberon. It must have been after Oberon met his vows.

Oberon has made great efforts to restore the relationship. But Theseus is getting further and further away.

Oberon thought of a bear. Either Theseus has changed, or he has changed. But there was no thought in my head.

I would have walked a long time ago. Oberon did not realize how much time had passed since he turned off all the equipment except the powered equipment of the Power Suit.

When I walked for a long time, I saw a glimmer in front of me. He hurries to power up the electronic equipment associated with the battle. But the voice of vows in his head prevented his decision.

‘Relying on electronic equipment makes it hard to expect performance improvements. ’

Oberon lowers the center of his body. To hit the first strike if the target finds itself. The Force trembles within him.

Seowon quietly left the Seongbuk-east with Marvin. It was because I didn't want to wake my landlord because of an unhappy guest who had come around midnight.

The destination was a hotel in the heart of Seoul, where Harry and Marvin made room.

Harry came out of the lobby and greeted the two of them in a clean manner, having received word in advance from Marvin.

He led them to the reception room of his suite. The suite, set to stationery, telephone and beverage, was ready for the meeting and guests. The vows were very fond of Harry's work.

Harry tries to leave. But my vows stopped me. What happened today was that it would be closely related to the project I started with Joon-won Kim.

A new drink for a new unit. The Shadow Warrior's range of services was confined to the usual mercenary business, and everything related to the Beast was to be turned into a project in partnership with Joon-Won Kim.

Therefore, the meeting was to be held shortly after the first project that had not yet been named. Harry received 100 percent of Seowon's opinion after speaking with Joon-won Kim.

After I had a cup of coffee, I heard a ringtone.

Harry opens the door.

Hyeong-gyu Kim, who saw a stranger, was embarrassed. But he found a vow in fluent English.

“From now on, all conversations will take place in English. ”

Hyeong-gyu Kim shakes his head at the offer of the vow.

“It's a matter of national security. Third-parties should not listen. ”

“My situation has changed. The last time I met him, he was an individual called Jung Jungwon, but now he represents the company. These are the two people who help me with my work. ”

From the meadow, Kim Hyeong-gyu tried to set fire to his habits. However, the moment I saw the eyes of Seo's vow that did not shake a bit, Hyeong-gyu Kim remembered his old memories.

Unlike people who only heard the name "Secretary of State," a vow was not someone he could sleep with. Moreover, this time he was holding a knife sack.

I felt anxious inside. However, Hyeong-gyu Kim pulled the documents out of the bag without showing any discoloration. It was a non-disclosure agreement written in Korean.

The vows were intended to require documents written in English. But Oberon has a problem, so it's gone. His mind was also in a hurry to make the process a problem.

“Confidential Agreement. Sign, please."

Harry unhesitates to sign. It was the first time I had seen my face, but it was a gesture that showed how deeply I believed in my vows. Marvin hesitates for a moment and follows Harry.

The vows brought out three documents and demanded an explanation.

“Why is Oberon in Osaka? ”

The first sound that popped out of Hyeong-gyu's mouth was sighing.

“Haaa. That's it. ”

Seowon sat on the couch, twisting his legs and folding his arms, looking at Hyeong-gyu Kim. Without a proper explanation, he gestured that he would not cooperate.

“We have a request for cooperation from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan. Horseshoe appeared in Osaka and asked me to get rid of it. ”

Seowon leaned forward, loosening his legs. The coffee table was in the way, but he didn't mind.

As the face of the vow got closer, Hyeong-gyu Kim leaned back and made an impression. This guy suddenly wanted to do this.

Less than 30 centimeters away, Seowon looked right through Hyeong-gyu Kim's eyes.

“Have you no pride? ”

Suddenly, I felt a sudden backbone in solid English. Hyeong-gyu Kim's face was distorted without cause. That's when the second attack plunges in.

“You're sending a kid to the slaughterhouse for a few bucks? After what happened last time? ”

Kim Hyung-gyu later realized why Seo was stubborn in English. In the English language, which is not respectful, Seowon said without filtering out the story in his heart.

It hit Hyeong-gyu's head that the vow was not just a strong bionic soldier. Kim Hyeong-gyu's eyes shook anxiously, remembering how clever and intelligent the vow was.

I wanted to avoid coming to the vows if I could. But there were two in Osaka. The other one had to wait near the Qingwa Desert in case of national emergency. There were no answers except vows.

With a pathetic look on his face, he took a vow backwards.

I held my breath in Hyeong-gyu Kim's mouth. He quickly grabs the glass of water on the table.

A vow of silence confirms the opposing Pokémon's atrophy. His expression and speech were completely different from before.

“I'm a mercenary with the Shadow Warrior, so I can't make decisions without accepting the mission like last time. You know what I'm saying? I mean, I can only go to Osaka if I have permission from a representative and an advisor sitting next to me. ”

Harry's expression, which had been tortured by Marvin and Zola, who decided to join us today, remained unchanged. However, I was worried because I was pushed to the negotiating table without knowing the details.

Seowon asked Hyeong-gyu Kim to understand and then took Harry and Marvin into the room. He called Gary in Washington and asked him to send him a copy of his sales report and contract in a secure email.

Seowon opened an email attachment on his laptop.

“Harry might know. The last time I was in Korea, rats from Japan tried to assassinate President Kwon Oh Hyun. Luckily, I took care of them all. So I was told by bionic soldiers in Japan that their seeds were dry. I was angry because he sent a handful of important agents to Japan despite the incident. ”

Harry and Marvin nod.

Two people who were familiar with the one-way relationship knew why the vows were uncomfortable. It was due to the work of the True History Foundation, founded by Joon-Won Kim in Washington, to prevent Japan's international lobby from distorting its mistakes.

Harry asked.

“Are you going to Japan? ”

“Oberon is the one who needs to come with us. ”

Marvin's face turns pale and stiff.

I liked the word 'we’ from the mouth of the vow and the expression ’we are going with’.

He hated the expression ’Human Resource', which is commonly used throughout management. Companies that treated people as resources in human gatherings thought there was no future. People thought it was everything, not a resource.

“Please familiarize yourself with the documents as soon as possible and negotiate on my behalf. ”

Marvin replies with a bright expression.

“That man and Japan in the living room will pay the ultimate price. ”

* * *

Seowon left the two of you in the living room.

I saw Hyeong-gyu Kim on the phone with a serious face in both hands. Hyeong-gyu Kim got up off the phone.

“Let's go together. ”

“? ”

“The National Security Council is holding at the Chungwa University. I need you to come with me. ”

Seowon slowly glued his butt to the couch, gazing at Hyeong-gyu Kim. I looked at Hyeong-gyu Kim with a look on his face.

“Whatever you want. ”

Hyeong-gyu Kim choked. I didn't think even a VIP would pass.

“He's your president, not mine. ”

Seowon asked in Korean.

“The president's on his own, let's hear it. What did you receive from Japan that sent Oberon to the extremities? ”

Hyeong-gyu Kim bit his lip.

Unlike an external assessment that no matter how urgent things may seem, he feels naked every time he meets a vow.

Just this once. If the opposing Pokémon were different, they would be able to move on with their reasonably processed information and dazzling investigations. No, before that, the game would be over as soon as the word "cheongwa" came out. However, the opponent made a vow to slap a Japanese ninja with his bare hands. In front of the vows, there are no lies, tricks or authority.

Kim Hyeong-gyu didn't open her mouth easily, so she opened her mouth instead.

“You know the riots in New Orleans? ”

Hyeong-gyu Kim looked at the vows with an impression. It was his expression that made him fat in this urgent situation.

“That's what I did. Do you know how much they paid the U.S. government for beating up two Beasts in New Orleans? You should think about that before you put me in charge.

The Korean government will pay for the rescue, and the Japanese government will pay for the defeat of the Beast. Ah! We also figured out a way to get rid of Deadzone in New Orleans. If you want to go from Japan to that, it's going to cost a lot more. Don't even think about doing the salt service like last time. ”

The vow picked up the index finger and rattled to the left and to the right.

Kim Hyung-gyu, who was in a hurry, forcefully opened his mouth.

“But… my country is in crisis, and as one of the people……. ”

“This guy's a mess. I'm not Korean. And Korea? You didn't even give me shit.... Yes, let's say that the fact that you were born on this land is your own debt to Korea. But if you get that kind of money from the Rangers, then the debt is over. ”

Kim Hyung-gyu's impression was crumpled.

“Answer me first. Why Oberon is in Japan. ”
