little happiness

“… … That’s why, these days, North Korean land has such a high investment value… .”

The conclusion of the story that the two couples talked about, as if they were sharing their personal affairs, was that they were interested in North Korea after all.

I was curious, so I came to the broadcasting company to see if I could give it away.

Although currently off-limits to the general public, North Korean territory with tremendous value.

Even when North Korea collapsed and became a den of monsters, land prices in aging provincial towns had already temporarily surpassed.

Although there has been no official announcement from the government yet, related experts are optimistic that the urban development and maintenance project will begin within this year.

If you reflect on the pace of development of new towns in Pangyo or Sejong in the past, and if you think about the current boom with the disappearance of gates. Even considering that there was no infrastructure, there was a high possibility that the development of major areas would be completed one by one in about 10 years.

Originally, the Republic of Korea was a peninsula, but in reality it was in the same form as an island.

It was because of North Korea’s existence before the Gate incident, and after it was destroyed, it was a kind of ban due to monsters.

It is said that the road leading inland was blocked due to political, military, and monster threats.

But now the gateway to Eurasia has been opened. That bridgehead is North Korean territory.

Everything is brand new. It literally means the land of opportunity where there is nothing.

At least, it is shocking that there is a saying among citizens that ‘the one who enters first, buys something, then sells something is the winner’.

Ha Seong-gil and his wife were also one of those people.

To be precise, it seems that the government wants 3 degrees of land near Pyongyang officially handed over to Ha Yeon-woo.

“Have you contacted your father?”

Whatever thought came to mind, Ha Yeon-woo politely asked while wearing a mask.

The greater the hope, the heavier the despair.

“no… . Is there any way to contact you? what’s over there Did something bad happen?”

They say with a smile that they have come to visit their family, but they react to their father’s story as if it were a stranger’s business.

Ha Yeon-woo smiled and just nodded.

And then.

“boss.”

One of the members of the gang came up and started talking.

“It’s a 5th tier gate.”

“Where is the location?”

“It is called Sinuiju, North Pyongan Province.”

Currently, South Korea is officially a gate-clean country. It is natural that gates cannot be created because there are no cubes.

Even so, the ‘completely’ gate has not disappeared.

Because it’s not a game, it’s reality.

The gate ejection distance of the cube revealed so far is about 1,000 km. And it was only being created on land.

As if there is a cube quota system, it does not shoot the gate only to the country to which it belongs.

Currently in China, Liaoning, Qinghai, Yunnan, etc. There were a total of 12 cubes including the autonomous districts.

Among them, there were two provinces in Liaoning and Heilongjiang that reached the North Korean territory.

Because of this, the probability was significantly lower than before, but the northernmost part of North Korea cannot be said to be completely free from the gate yet.

The reason Ha Yeon-woo dared to request 3 provinces, including Pyongyang, was because it was an empty land and met two conditions for gates not being created.

After all the Cubes in Korea disappeared, it was also the reason why the government tried to move them to the north, saying that it was a mercenary policy and a policy to first move in the awakened people a while ago.

‘Well, even if it’s not for that reason, I’ll go up on my own if I want to earn money.’

In any case, for this reason, at least every functioning country had to disclose relevant information through a window that could be verified anywhere in the world as soon as the gate was discovered.

Ha Yeon-woo was always receiving reports from members of the 5th rank or higher in order to grasp the general trend of gate occurrences.

“Is there a 2nd or 3rd tier?”

“I’ll look for it right away.”

An organizer who leaves to find out.

“What’s happen?”

I just smiled lightly at Lee Mi-jung, who couldn’t stay still and asked questions as if the whole situation was strange.

And after a while, a returning member brought information about the gate wave that had just occurred in the same North Pyongan Province.

“It’s the second tier.”

“It’s just fine. Would you like to wake up?”

Ha Yeon-woo stood up with a fresh smile on his face, and Ha Seong-gil and his wife looked puzzled.

“Wake up? why?”

“Why? My father is also in North Korea. Since you say you are interested in their business, I’m going to give you a tour of North Korea.”

A situation where positivity is not such positivity.

Looking at their expressions and words, the two couples stood up in admiration at the sight of their relationship with Ha Seong-cheol, who had been cut off, appearing to be connected quickly.

“That, is it?”

“Don’t you have an appointment?”

“Ho Ho! then! Say no. I cleared my schedule just because I saw you. It’s good boy.”

“Then let’s go.”

Guided by Ha Yeon-woo and members of the organization, the Ha Seong-gil couple boarded the back seat of a top-of-the-line Rolls-Royce model that had been modified just for him.

“Hey… . It kills me.”

“honey. Look at this. What car has a wine cellar in it?”

From the time the two got into the car until a long time passed after it started. He touched all over the place and spewed out his greed.

And from time to time, I was also showing the expectation that a life where I could enjoy these things would come.

Ha Yeon-woo’s expression was just chilly as he looked through the rearview mirror at them, who were full of elation as if they had already become wealthy.

In this way, the high-end sedan they boarded crossed Panmunjom and headed for Kuseong-gun, North Pyongan Province, through an outdated and out of place view.

A few hours after leaving the mansion.

I was able to reach my destination listening to their non-stop chatter, salted with joy and greed.

The road conditions were poor for a while, but thanks to the emptiness, I was able to arrive rather quickly.

“Im here.”

The vehicle stopped and an organizer in the driver’s seat spoke politely.

“Are you getting off?”

At the words of Ha Yeon-woo, who turned his head to the back seat with a cold expression on his face, the two of them couldn’t answer because they got goosebumps at the moment.

Ha Seong-gil, who had been distracted by that animalistic instinct for a while, asked cautiously.

“here… . Where are you?”

“Didn’t you say you were going to show me the land?”

“Uh, that’s true, but… .”

His friendly tone and expression were unchanging, but his eyes were cold. I was feeling something strange going on in the atmosphere.

‘Come to think of it… .’

Ha Seong-gil’s head turned quickly.

Come to think of it, if it was Ha Yeon-woo’s land received from the government. It is a distance that can be reached in a couple of hours from the mansion where we started.

Thanks to the fact that it was my first trip and my excitement, I couldn’t properly estimate it, but now I realized that I had come a long way.

“here… . Is Pyongyang right for you? ?”

click-

Ha Yeon-woo responded cynically to his words and opened the car door and got out.

“I said I would show you the land, but I didn’t say I would show you Pyongyang.”

“So what kind of land… .”

“What kind of land is it? It is the place where you will be buried.”

After saying that, he closed the door.

When he came out, some of the gang members who were waiting in advance opened the door of the back seat and pulled out the two couples who belatedly started to assess the situation.

“Ah! what!”

“Hey, won’t you let this go?”

After breaking two cubes and experiencing dozens of gates, Ha Yeon-woo estimated the direction of the familiar energy.

“One hundred meters… How much?”

“You bastards! Do you think you guys won’t get caught doing this sh*t?”

“Help me! Save people here!”

Ignoring the struggles of the two people who were dragged out by the hair, the gang members bound their hands and feet behind them and lifted them up.

Even if it’s only a 3rd tier, it’s an Awakener who can lightly bend quite a few alloys.

public. There was nothing that Ha Seong-gil and his wife, who were all old, could do, no matter how wild they were.

As soon as the gang members walked forward about 50 meters and put them down, a gate began to appear in the low air.

Pajik- Pajik-

A phenomenon reminiscent of the strategy simulation games that dominated the past era unfolded. Ha Seong-gil and Lee Mi-jung’s feelings changed 180 degrees in an instant.

“I, please… help me… .”

“Yeonwoo… please… .”

Knees and shoulders because both hands and feet were tied. Two people trying to escape in the opposite direction of the gate that was created by crawling with their jaws.

The expression of Ha Yeon-woo smiling coldly.

The despair of not being able to leave this place.

The horror I felt after looking back at the six monsters escaping from the gate that had been created.

As much joy as I felt on my way here. The greater despair and fear that hit them was conveyed to Ha Yeon-woo.

Kruck-

squeak-

“You made the right choice.”

Those who came out of the gate are monsters known to most of the Awoken here, including Ha Yeon-woo. It was a griller.

They are shaped like wild dogs with abnormally large heads, and their main method of attack is to devour opponents using their jaws that surpass those of lions.

It was an object that could work with modern weapons, and because of its small height and size, it could kill even ordinary people if dealt with well, but it was not applicable to Ha Seong-gil and Lee Mi-jung of today.

will give you a painful death. This means that the perfect conditions have been created.

“Ahhh… .”

“Kyaaah!”

The grillers, who had their eyes fixed on the couple who were crawling like crazy, started running at them like crazy.

Seong-gil Ha faces the first griller he arrives at.

“this… bastard… !”

puck-

With his tied feet, he lifted his head as hard as he could, but instead, he shook his head as if it tickled him and shoved his whole foot into his mouth.

Enemy-

“Quaaagh!”

Do-Duk-Duk-

The kneecaps of the two legs were quickly separated with the sound of bones breaking.

The unseparated shinbone appeared with most of the flesh removed, and Griller munched on the things in his mouth as if savoring them.

“Keuk… ugh… .”

“Huh… Heo-eok… .”

At the same time, Lee Mi-jung was also experiencing a similar situation, and for a while, only the sound of bones and flesh being mercilessly chewed echoed.

yikes- yikes-

Enemy-

There was a slight smile on Ha Yeon-woo’s face when he saw it, and it was a bonus that the members of the organization waved their hands slightly as they glanced at the scene.

Ha Yeon-woo and his party were only a few tens of meters away, but since they were monsters with much lower intelligence than dogs and cats, they did not rush at them and just enjoyed their meal.

When even their eyeballs, which had turned red with blood, were eaten by the monster and only a few bone fragments remained. Griller’s eyes turned to Ha Yeon-woo one by one.

at the same time.

Kwaaang-!

The mana released by Ha Yeon-woo’s will slashed them all down in the air, creating a roar.

A place that has turned into a handful of gore along with the crushed earth. Ha Yeon-woo, recalling the painful death of Ha Seong-gil and his wife, opened his mouth quietly as he walked towards the vehicle.

“Crack down on people from the broadcasting station who came to the mansion. If you notice it, take care of it yourself.”

“All right!”

Late night. Ha Yeon-woo, who returned to the mansion, was welcomed by Jang Bo-ra with an awkward expression.

out for a few hours. Hiding the eerie feelings naturally aroused in the whereabouts of the missing couple.

The bored and tired expressions of the members who returned together were a bonus that doubled the emotions.

“Oh, brother. Did you have a good time?”

It wasn’t that Ha Yeon-woo was ignorant of all this situation or her feelings.

There is a saying that the law is far and the fist is near. And anything much closer than a fist.

‘whenever. Fear of dying in any way.’

In Ha Yeon-woo’s opinion, when humans keep the most low-key attitude and don’t think nonsense. It was when he realized that someone else had the right to live and die.

Of course, I was well aware that it would be difficult for Jang Bo-ra, an ordinary woman in her mid-twenties, to handle easily, but she had not the slightest intention to compromise with reality because of cheap worries.

“So what are you doing today?”

The body of the story that Jang Bora visits the mansion and asks for practically eight hours.

“ah… He, I brought information about your brother.”

There is only one teacher for Jang Bora. It was only Jang Won-woo who taught her before joining the black market.

The documents and photos prepared in advance were handed over to Jang Bora.

If Ha Seong-gil and his wife had an unintentional tidying up, this was a kind of work that had to be done intentionally.

It was about Jang Won-woo’s younger brother.
