Solo Leveling: Ragnarok (Web Novel) - Chapter 233
Chapter 233
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
From one day.‘Vigilantes’ began their activities simultaneously all over the world.
-Aaaah!
-W-There’s a body here… … !
Bodies began to be discovered one by one in the corners of the alley.
The identity of the corpses was revealed to the world by the police and the Hunter Association who responded to reports from citizens and that they were all wanted villains.
As it turned out, the bodies were, beyond dispute, only vicious felons.
Among them, there were some minor criminals and ordinary hunters, but when investigated later, it was often revealed that no one was secretly committing vicious crimes behind the scenes.
There was one peculiar thing about this process.
Vigilante always had a habit of putting a note on the corpse of a villain after killing them.
The note briefly described the villain’s name and crime details, which made it easier for the police officers who had to dispose of the body.
It was clear what this note meant.
-Vigilante is helping the police do their job!
The criminals who killed the villains seemed to say that about their position.
And similar reports from citizens continued to appear here and there.
-Vigilante! Activities begin in Brazil too!
-Vigilante! Finally in Canada!
-Death Note Killer! Arrived in the Philippines too! 5
… ….
This craze spread like a firestorm and hit the whole world at a rapid pace.
Reporters were busy publishing dozens of articles every day.
There were two reasons why people around the world lumped together the events that occurred in countries that were physically distant from each other under the name ‘Vigilante’.
One, as I mentioned earlier, was that each corpse had a note attached to it, aka a ‘Death Note’. 3
Another reason is that the eyewitness accounts of Vigilante among the survivors who managed to escape from the villains thanks to Vigilante were consistent.
-I saw a black shadow.
This one word was the end.
They say they didn’t get the impression right, but due to the interviews repeating the same words, people had no choice but to draw one conclusion.
-It is assumed that Vigilante is not a movement of one individual, but a large group!
This was no longer an individual’s deviation or revenge against villains.
This meant that Vigilante was an organization that moved collectively with the same purpose and justice.
-What is the true purpose of the national vigilante group, Vigilante?
-Vigilante who cleans up villains around the world!
-Discussion) Ask about the qualifications of a Vigilante, who ignores the law and commits serial murders with his own definition!
-What is justice? Do villains really have human rights?
– Ask the opposite! Vigilante only punishes awakened criminals! The job of the police is still the same, and Vigilante is a police force solely for the awakened!
– Urgent News) The villain crime rate is decreasing rapidly around the world!
-What is the citizens’ position?
“Hehe. “The world is noisy.”
It was a truly ironic world.
The International Hunter Association was debating every day on the topic of whether Vigilante should be considered a villain
or whether he should be qualified as a villain hunter.
But it was a waste of time.
This was because there was no difference in arguing with them in a situation where they did not know who their identities were in the first place.
On the surface, of course.
There were people here who knew the mastermind behind all these incidents.
“Adam, have you seen this? “Is our Suho really coming out in earnest?”
Thomas Andre was lying leisurely on the sofa and chuckling as he watched the Vigilante articles that came up every day.
It was as if he was delighted with his grandchild’s entertainment feast, and Adam White, director of the U.S. Hunter Burea
u, sighed with a very perplexed expression. 1
“Forcing yourself to pretend not to know has its limits. “Some people are already saying that Vigilante’s facial expressions a
ppear to be the black shadows that appeared in Chinese videos.”
“Ooh, Adam! Don’t try too hard and just let it go! “Anyway, it’s only a matter of time before it’s revealed that Vigilante is rela
ted to Seongsuho.” 1
“ha… ….”
Adam White couldn’t help but sigh again at those irresponsible words.
If it weren’t for Thomas Andre in the first place, the U.S. Hunter Management Bureau would have already gone to Suho. 1
However, as long as Thomas Andre defended himself like that, the United States could never go against his words.
Why?
‘Thomas André… … It’s getting stronger.’
Kuuk.
Adam White clenched his sweaty fists and looked at Thomas Andre’s leisurely figure, lying down and drinking tomato juice.
It was currently known to the public that Thomas Andre had been captured by the U.S. Hunter Bureau for the murder of Chr
istopher.
And on the surface, he was engaged in a legal battle with the Hunter Administration with numerous lawyers.
1st trial, 2nd trial… ….
However, it was all planned out and was nothing more than a show.
Meanwhile, Thomas Andre was secretly tracking the foreign religion with the Hunter Management Bureau.
Operation name: Police Dark Hunter (FDH).
For a name that was roughly chosen, the results were quite good.
They had already found several bases of foreign religions hiding in the United States, and had even personally captured and
killed their priests.
But something strange happened.
Every time Thomas Andrew kills a priest… … His power was getting stronger.
After realizing that fact, Adam White was honestly very scared.
‘I can’t believe it even when I see it. A hunter who grows the more he fights… …. No, it’s a little different from that feeling.’
Adam White, who had seen him up close so far, corrected his thoughts that had just occurred to him.
‘Recovery rather than growth. It seems as if Thomas Andre is regaining his original strength the more he fights against forei
gn religions.
There was a basis for this thought.
As can be seen from the many awakened people, ordinary people feel a sense of elation when their power suddenly becom
es stronger.
One becomes intoxicated by that power.
But Thomas Andre’s reaction was a little different.
‘This man is happy as his power becomes stronger. ‘With an expression that makes you feel like you’re home.’
That scene was completely incomprehensible to Adam White’s common sense.
And areas of incomprehensibility tend to give rise to fear and fear.
At the same time, it was extremely reassuring to know that this man was still on America’s side.
‘One thing is clear.’
As director of the Hunter Administration, which protects the United States, Adam Smith was clearly aware of one fact. 2
‘This man already has a level of power that surpasses that of an ordinary S-class hunter.’
The moment Thomas Andre turns into an enemy of the United States, the United States will have to fight a war on the level
of nuclear war.
“… … So how long are we going to have to suppress information?”
Thomas grinned and responded to Adam White’s question, shaking off various distracting thoughts.
“That is, of course, until Suho gives the signal.”
“So when is that… ….”
“I guess it will be soon.”
The answer came from the calm voice of his secretary, Laura.
Laura was holding a tablet next to Thomas, looking at Korean news.
It was truly amazing.
In fact, just a few days ago, Korea was the country with the most noise over the Vigilante issue.
But trends move really fast.
“Korean public opinion is no longer interested in Vigilante. “Everyone is only talking about North Korea.”
“North Korea?”
“This also seems to be an issue regarding Hunter Seong Su-ho.”
Adam White also nodded, showing interest in Korean news.
“hmm. Korea’s major guilds are all supporting Hunter Seong Su-ho. “The argument is that if you have this level of ability, it
would be better to send it to North Korea to help the president of the association.”
“Some claim that large guilds are colluding to push hunters who are likely to become competitors to North Korea.”
“Hehe. Because it’s North Korea… …. “It looks like Suho wants to run wild.”
Thomas Andre smiled meaningfully, saying he understood Suho’s feelings.
It seemed as if his hands were itching to run wild, so Adam White felt very anxious and spoke hurriedly.
“It’s going to be easier said than done. “If you only care about your own country’s safety, the stronger the hunter, the great
er the loss if you send him to North Korea.”
“yes. For these reasons, public opinion is currently divided between pros and cons and shows no signs of leaning towards o
ne side. “I don’t think we will be able to get approval for going to North Korea without some decisive opportunity.”
“It’s an opportunity… ….”
Thomas’ eyes turned mischievous as he listened to Laura’s accurate analysis of the situation.
“I think I know what that is.”
It was just then.
Thomas Andre’s cell phone rang.
“I received a call from Hunter Seong Su-ho.”
With Laura’s words, Thomas jumped up from his seat.
And as soon as he received Suho’s call, he showed his teeth and smiled.
“Adam, now is the time.”
Thomas raised the corner of his mouth and said while making eye contact with Adam White.
“Tie Vigilante and Seongsuho together.”
“… … “I see.”
There was no need to say anything.
Because Adam White, who was so old-fashioned as he was in politics, immediately realized what he had to do.
Adam nodded and immediately summoned the management staff.
And after some time.
Foreign media began to cover the connection between Vigilante and the Korean hero who saved India.
At the same time, information about Seong Su-ho began to be released one by one in Korea.
Suddenly, public opinion in Korea began to change rapidly.
-Video) Live at Loktak Field filmed by China
The invisible hand influenced the algorithm.
The entire nation of Korea was able to see Suho standing side by side with thousands of black shadows in the video.
-What! That black shadow!
-Aren’t they all Vigilantes?!
… … !
People who had witnessed the Vigilantes all over the world began to recognize them simultaneously.
-Then who is the hunter with those Vigilantes?!
-What is your relationship with Vigilante?
-That man is a Korean hunter?
-Isn’t it dangerous to leave that man alone in Korea?
“As expected, it’s Adam. “This should be enough.”
Thomas Andre, reading the rapidly changing atmosphere, smiled with satisfaction.
“An opportunity to kick Suho out to North Korea.” 1
***
One day, all public opinion in Korea began to focus on ‘Seong Su-ho’.
-Indian hero Seong Su-ho! who is he?
– Seong Su-ho of Woojin Guild! Why has his information been hidden from the Association until now?!
Papa papapang!
And at this moment.
Reporters swarmed in front of Suho like a swarm, flashing dazzling shots.
Behind him, Yoo Jin-ho was asking Su-ho with an expression as if he were looking at a child thrown into a stream.
“… … Are you really okay with this?”
“Sure.”
Seong Su-ho suddenly receives tremendous public attention and pressure.
Now he was standing at the official press conference hosted by the association.
Beep-
After a while, the reporters’ noisy voices suddenly stopped with a sharp resonance.
Cold silence.
In the midst of all this, Seong Su-ho held the microphone with a resolute appearance to answer the questions of numerous reporters.
What they were curious about was Suho’s identity.
Before Suho answered, he thought about the tasks facing him one by one for a moment.
These are quests created by oneself, not by the system.
1. Protect Eshil’s territory from the demon world.
-Reward: When Esil becomes the Demon King, you can obtain ‘Purified Blood of the Demon King’.
2. Investigate the Nightmare Bud with Hunter Seo Ji-woo.
-Reward: You can go to the afterlife sea where the ‘World Tree’ is located.
3. Go to North Korea.
-Reward: Fast level up
The first two were quests to obtain materials to create the Divine Beast of Life, tasks that must be completed in order to save Su-ho’s grandfather, Seong Il-hwan. 2
Currently, Seong Il-hwan’s body was in an unstable state, so it would not be strange if a dimensional crack suddenly occurred in his body and tore it apart due to the numerous foreign stones embedded in his body.
In order to restore that condition, the Divine Beast of Life had to be created as quickly as possible. 2
However, in order to solve the first two quests, it was more advantageous for Suho to become stronger than he is now.
In order to do that, it is also important to go to North Korea and work hard to raise your level.
‘Yes, in order to save grandfather… … This is the fastest way.’ 1
Suho pledged to do so and raised the corners of his mouth as he leisurely glanced at the numerous reporters who had gathered to see him.
“Hunter Seong Su-ho! We want answers!”
At that time, a reporter who had been silent courageously asked a question.
Then, simultaneously, questions started popping up again here and there.
“What is your relationship with Vigilante!”
“Are you the leader of Vigilante, as rumored?”
“What is your true identity?”
“… ….”
At that time, an item from his inventory suddenly appeared in Suho’s hand.
Yes, this is the most reliable way.
The embarrassment will be temporary, but the effect will be certain.
Suho put ‘Item: Crow Mask’ on his face, closed his eyes tightly and opened his mouth.
“I am… … “This is Crow, the Beast King.”
… … !
Papa pap papang!
At that moment, the camera flashes exploded at Suho again like crazy.
It was finally the moment when the identity of the Beast King Crow, known as an unidentified villain or hero, was revealed to the world.
-Breaking News) What is the real reason why large guilds wanted to send Hunter Sung Suho to Association President Woo Jin-cheol?
