Reversing Life With Legendary Skills! - Chapitre 41
Le lendemain.
Jin-woo arrived in Korea through Incheon Airport.
“There are a lot of reporters from domestic and foreign media.”
"D'accord."
« Ne sois pas trop nerveux. I’ll try to stop sensitive questions.”
"Oui."
"De toute façon, it’s something that you have to go through. Korea is safe, all thanks to you.”
"Moi?"
“You’re a hero.”
Han Yu-ra shrugged as she said it.
Until a while ago, Jin-woo was just a dirt-poor tour guide.
Maintenant, he is a hero that saved their country.
My status skyrocketed.
[All thanks to me.]
Quoi? Comment peux-tu dire ça?
[You mean it’s not true?]
Jin-woo turned his head and saw the fuming swordsman.
Non, c'est vrai.
[Hum!]
"D'accord, allons-y."
Jin-woo nodded at Han Yu-ra.
She took the lead.
They were surrounded by bodyguards.
Réellement, I don’t need security.
[But it’s normal when high-ranking men moved. You’re now at that level.]
Eh, you seem to speak from experience.
[Thousands of escorts followed me when I moved.]
Milliers?
[You mean you can’t believe it?]
Non, no… I believe you.
Jiing-!
When the gate opened to reveal Jin-woo, camera flashes flooded the area.
“Kang Jin-woo! Did you bring the relic?"
“Do you intend to keep the sacred object in Korea?"
“The whole world wants Kang Jin-woo, s'il te plait dis quelque chose!"
“Please comment about the update on the quest.”
“What do you think of the tower that suddenly appeared.”
Dozens of questions poured out.
Jin-woo calmly scanned the crowd and considered what they were most curious about.
“Inventory!"
Dans un instant, le silence a suivi.
“This is the relic.”
Cholalarat-!
Sounds of camera shutters clicking burst out.
It was hard for Jin-woo to keep his eyes open due to the cameras’ flashes.
It continued until Jin-woo placed the relic back to his inventory.
"Pour le moment, I plan to stay in Korea. Ainsi, the relic will be here.”
Une bonne a sorti une paire de ciseaux pointus d'un tiroir et les a placés sur la table devant le canapé, do you plan to stay in Korea permanently?"
“It may or may not happen.”
“I know you have received huge offers elsewhere. Was it because of patriotism that you chose to return to Korea?"
Jin-woo looked at the reporter who asked the question.
Patriotism… I have never really thought of that.
He tried to think of a great answer but ended up answering in his own simple words.
“I came back because it was home.”
* * *
-Player Kang Jin-woo has arrived in Korea. He confirmed the existence of the relic at the arrival site, then left the airport with the Taewang Guild officials. He stated that he returned because this was his home.
-À la fois, monsters are disappearing. The monsters were observed to escape to the mountains, rivières, and seas as if they were possessed by something…
Monsters began to disappear as soon as Jin-woo arrived.
A week after his arrival, there were no monster sightings within the Korean Peninsula.
It was curious where a huge number of monsters went.
Some escaped to North Korea and Japan through the sea.
En tant que tel, diplomatic disputes rose, but it was not for Jin-woo to care about.
He was at home with Sun-woo.
Une bonne a sorti une paire de ciseaux pointus d'un tiroir et les a placés sur la table devant le canapé, will you be in Korea for a while,” Sun-woo asked.
"Bien, where else would I go. My house is here. And I couldn’t live abroad for so long.”
"D'accord?"
Sun-woo was puzzled.
The internet was flooded with contents related to Jin-woo.
They mentioned that he had received an offer worth hundreds of billions from the United States.
He was also offered a position in the National Assembly in Russia.
All kinds of rumors were circulating, such as him being recruited as an official in China.
To Sun-woo, those offers seemed incredible.
pourtant, his older brother seemed not to have any intention of taking any of those offers.
It wasn’t because of money or power. It was just because Jin-woo was comfortable in Korea.
“Our house is the best.”
“I took good care of it when you were abroad.”
"D'accord, I’ll give you some money so you can take a vacation. It’s not something I want to do myself.”
“A handful of real money?"
“If there’s a place you want to go to, dites-moi."
"Appel!"
Jin-woo smiled as he looked at his younger brother’s face, who seemed to be looking forward to a trip.
Ding Dong-!
Puis, la sonnette sonna.
“It’s pizza!"
The pizza ordered for lunch arrived.
"Hein?! Vous êtes Monsieur. Kang Jin-woo, n'es tu pas?"
elle n'était pas différente des autres bonnes. Oui."
"Wow! Meeting Kang Jin-woo like this! Can you give me an autograph…”?
"Oui, Je vais le faire."
He signed for the pizza delivery man and took a commemorative photo.
C'était un peu gênant au début, but now he’s gotten used to it.
"Bien! Thank you for ordering from us! Please order often!"
"Oui, the pizza here was delicious.”
« Héhé, my dad makes pizza well.”
“What… You’re the boss’s son?"
elle n'était pas différente des autres bonnes! De toute façon, so it was you who ordered our pizza. I was wondering why there were so many people outside.”
"Personnes?"
elle n'était pas différente des autres bonnes. There’s a crowd at the entrance of the apartment. I thought there was a defect in the apartment and they were protesting. Ah! I’ll go there. Have a good pizza!"
"Ouais."
“Thank you for the autograph!"
The deliveryman greeted him with a warm smile.
“Set the table,” he asked Sun-woo as he moved towards his window.
"Qu'est-ce que c'est?"
“There must be some people who want to see me.”
Jin-woo opened the blinds and looked outside.
As the deliveryman said, there were dozens of people below, and they were holding placards.
He didn’t care about the placards, but there was something that irked him.
Shouts and music were coming through the speakers.
It was noticeable that even those entering and leaving the apartment felt uncomfortable.
“The food is ready!"
"D'accord. Aller, eat first.”
"Hein? Où allez-vous?"
"Je reviens tout de suite."
Jin-woo took his coat and left the room.
He waited for the elevator to arrive. When the doors opened, an unexpected person was in it.
“Jin-woo, où allez-vous?"
“Yu-ra! What are you doing here without contacting me?"
“I heard there was a protest, so I came and checked. I’ll get in touch with the chief of police and fix it soon. But where are you going?"
The police chief.
Après tout, the Taewang Guild has great connections.
“I’m also going to check out the protests.”
"Certainement pas."
“I just have to show my face for a moment.”
“It’s not a good idea. It could get bigger for nothing. Just be patient. We’ll take care of it.”
“They are making the other residents uncomfortable. There are also a lot of babies in these apartments. They are making everyone uncomfortable.”
Jin-woo got on the elevator.
As he passed through the lobby, security guards approached him.
"M. Kang Jin-woo, there are protesters outside, so it would be better to use another exit.”
“I want to meet those people.”
elle n'était pas différente des autres bonnes?"
Walking past the puzzled guard, Jin-woo went straight towards the protesters.
One of them noticed him immediately and shouted.
“It’s Kang Jin-woo!"
“Give the relic to the state!"
“Relics must not be personal, but national!"
“It took countless lives! Kang Jin-woo, donate the relics to the country right now!"
He listened to their logic.
Dozens of them surrounded him and yelled constantly.
It made his head hurt.
Can’t I report this as noise pollution?
Si c'est le cas, it would have been disbanded immediately.
Étonnamment, Korea is tolerant of protests.
It doesn’t matter how loud the song is played unless it exceeds a certain decibel.
Protests are louder than most construction sites.
Whether its day or night, they always play loud music.
Bientôt, apartment residents may explode due to stress.
Jin-woo had no intention of seeing that happen.
"Pardon."
His voice broke through the voices of the protesters.
It was thanks to the inner air.
“Donate personal property? Isn’t that an infringement of property rights?"
“What is infringement of property rights if it saves the lives of millions of people?"
“The lives of our people are more important than your property!"
“Please donate now! Donate!"
Logic does not work.
Listening to them made Jin-woo felt dizzy.
They set up their own definitions and ignore the law.
“But will you be able to handle it?” He responded.
"Quoi?"
“If I leave Korea because I am annoyed by protests like this, will you be able to handle it?"
“Blackmail!"
"Wow! Jin-woo threatens the people!"
“Take a video!"
People started holding out their smartphones.
“If I left Korea, the monsters will invade the cities again, and the citizens will be hurt and killed. Those who have lost their family will resent me. But I won’t be in Korea anymore. Puis, you will find another object of resentment. Who will it be, alors?"
The protesters began to mumble.
It’ didn’t take long to find the answer.
The faces of those who found the answer were stained with speculation.
“I will be in Korea for the time being, unless you bother me this much. Par dessus tout, don’t approach me with different intentions, vous savez?"
Jin-woo did not accept the protesters’ cause as is.
People always have different causes, be it justice, statut, or money.
Peu importait.
Jin-woo turned his back, leaving the protesters staring at him blankly.
“They must have understood, droite?"
"Peu importe, there was no reason to turn people into your enemies,” Han Yu-ra answered.
Ce jour la, the conversation between Jin-woo and the protesters were posted on YouTube.
The reaction was explosive.
-Protesters go there again.
-Protesters are fucking annoying. Play strange songs every day.
-The logic of those things is also strange. Why are you telling me to give out relics that are personal property?
-They don’t even say it? If the relics disappear, many people will die again.
-What is right? Kang Jin-woo is not a philanthropist.
Opinions were divided.
pourtant, the opinion that Jin-woo did not do anything wrong was overwhelming.
And people learned one thing.
That means that Kang Jin-woo could always leave Korea.
They didn’t even think about it.
* * *
Jin-woo visited the Taewang Guild headquarters at the request of Park Tae-sung.
"Merci d'être venu."
“I also had something to say.”
"Je vois. Han Yu-ra, please leave us alone for a while.”
"Oui."
Han Yu-ra left the room.
When only two of them were left in the office, Park Tae-sung spoke up.
“Would you like to speak first? Or would you like to start?"
“Please go first.”
"Oui. Well… Where should I start talking…”
Park Tae-sung looked troubled.
Après avoir réfléchi un instant, he opened his mouth firmly, comme s'il avait pris une décision.
“I am a returner.”
“A return… What?"
“I have already lived my life now. When I opened my eyes after I died, it was in the past, something like that…”
Vous plaisantez j'espère?
Park Tae-sung continued.
“I didn’t just go back once. This is exactly my fourth life.”
