Became a Human Rights Advocate - Chapter 88



88 – Gaiden, Los Zetas.

＜11＞

The next night. An underground dock located on the outskirts of Accademia.

“What is it, bro? There are fewer children than I said.”

The captain of the small boat said with a smile.

Smuggling is a common occurrence, but few clients promise as much money as Ross.

“Of course, there is no discount. You know?”

“Yes.”

“What, why is the answer so bland? Come on, kids, get on board.”

From noble mtl dot com

At the captain’s words, the three children carefully boarded the ship.

Ross followed him on board, and the captain opened his mouth with a greedy grin.

“Before we go, let’s make one thing clear.”

“… What?”

“Hyung, isn’t it related to this case?”

The captain held up a tablet with the news written on it.

‘Discovery of traces of large-scale human experiments.’

‘Academy City’s Darkness Revealed?’

‘All the children die-.’

And so on, the title of the article that stirred the whole world today was written.

The reason for showing such an article to Ross was simple.

“Wasn’t it the condition of not asking anything?”

“But at this scale, the story is different. If I get involved too, I get tired. I need to pay a little more Oh, don’t even think about solving it by force. Because the route of the voyage is only in this body’s head.”

“… You are the first to break the contract.”

“hahahahaha, that’s how-…… “

The captain’s pupils, who had been laughing heartily, relax.

The captain opened his mouth as he turned his body in the direction of the wheelhouse.

Move like a doll with unraveled threads.

“Let’s start right away.”

“Wait. Leave it there.”

At Ross’ words, the captain nodded and handed the tablet to Ross.

The moment Ross received the tablet, he felt a throbbing pain in his temple.

“… Are you okay?”

“All right, let’s go.”

The captain enters the wheelhouse, and the ship starts to start.

Ross knows what the cause of this headache is.

The object called ‘seed’, which was in the heart of the research building, is now inside his body.

I couldn’t remember what kind of process he went through, but oddly enough, I could see how to use his ability.

The fact that the ability he can use is only a small part of this ‘seed’ and is a weak power.

However, even with that feeble ability, this kind of recoil comes from using it once or twice.

‘Until proper control is possible, I think it’s better to minimize the use of abilities.’

It won’t be easy, but I had no choice but to do it.

Ross came to that conclusion and started looking at the news using the tablet.

-Supposed to be the work of some radical Kabbalah-

-The United Nations strongly criticizes the board of directors of Academia-

“Hmm.”

Ross saw a photo of the United Nations delegation posted on an article.

I see a familiar face in the corner of the people shouting something with high blood pressure.

“Were you alive?”

It’s Dimas.

The possibility of mistaking people is low.

Because that shiny head was hard to forget.

Only after seeing Dimas’ face did Roth understand why the United Nations had suddenly come to thank him.

On the day he learned the truth, Dimas took the picture and left to solve the problem.

As a result, Ross was put in the worst situation… , I do not intend to blame Dimas.

He each did what he could.

The ship slowly begins to depart.

Before the airwaves went down, Ross searched the name of a foundation on a news site.

Cheongmyung Foundation.

The top line of the school, as the principal said before he died.

Among the series of articles, the first title that caught my eye was this.

‘Chungmyeong Foundation Chairman Baek Cheong-hwan [A heartbreaking and mournful incident] Must continue a thorough investigation.’

Looking at this reaction, which seemed completely irrelevant, it seemed that he had already cut his tail properly.

One disposal team was wiped out, but there must have been other troops available.

Now, what shall we do now?

Ross put the tablet to one side, which was dead due to the radio wave being cut off.

Looking at the academy island, Academia, which is getting farther and farther away.

Ross is a reasonable person.

I have no intention of continuing my relationship with the island that is like that demonic world anymore.

With the ability Ross acquired, he doesn’t even need to go back to South America.

I thought that perhaps such a romantic thing would be possible, settling down in a moderately peaceful area and playing family games with my three children.

Ross moved toward the cabin at the stern with a faint smile.

When I opened the door to the room, the tension was relieved and the faces of the children who were deeply asleep without knowing the world were reflected in the water lamp.

Ross admired that peaceful face for a moment.

However, as the boat was rocked by the waves, he hit his head on the threshold.

The pain wiped away any sweet delusions that had come to Ross’s mind.

It can’t end that easily.

It is a group that has the financial power to operate such a huge facility and the power to cut its tail even while attracting public attention.

Considering the importance of the ‘seed’ inside one’s body, it is only natural that the pursuer will catch up.

Ross alone might be able to stay hidden somehow, but he’s just too much with these kids.

I’m sure it won’t last long.

‘… No.’

There is no reason for Ross to take responsibility for those children.

If you wander around the world alone, find a suitable doctor and get a full-body plastic surgery, the chances of a pursuer chasing you are close to zero.

But why?

“… Teacher.”

Ross’ face hardened as he heard the children talking in their sleep.

Ross just didn’t want to choose that rational option.

Ross’ worries continued throughout the night.

It wasn’t until sunrise that he could draw his conclusions.

Ross now has power.

Destructive power enough to shake the world if used well.

It’s not suitable for Ross to just run away with this kind of power.

To make sure he never touches Ross again, he needs to step on it thoroughly.

… Okay.

This is revenge.

To the other party who broke the contract, it is necessary to clearly show the example.

After Ross had forced that conclusion, he stopped thinking any further.

＜12＞

A lot has happened since then.

Named the Lost-Child Incident, the whole story of the day was distorted and spread all over the world.

It was concluded that the crime was committed by the radical Kabalists alone, and the investigation net did not reach the real darkness above it.

Occasionally, Dimas’ face was seen on TV, raving about the need for a proper investigation, but he was seen only as a madman spreading conspiracy theories.

While Ross and his friends wandered the back alleys of the world, as expected, pursuers were attached from all sides.

It wasn’t just the Pursuit of Clarity.

Aiming for the ‘seed’ of Ross, the intelligence agencies of each country pursued him.

Ross has been in danger of dying several times, and so have the children.

And at some point, the children started complaining of mental distress.

However, they did not have time to receive proper treatment, and the pain continued to intensify.

The children’s personalities, which used to be smart, became more and more eccentric, and Leah even suffered from illusions and hallucinations.

Unable to endure the pain, Yan and Leah asked Ross to erase their memories of the past.

Ross pondered for a moment, but soon respected their choice.

After that day, the two girls started calling Ross a boss instead of a teacher.

As time passed, Paul, who still had memories of it, naturally called Ross “Boss.”

It was ironically thanks to the enemy of humanity, the Irregular, that they had time to breathe.

One day, Astray came and claimed to be Ross’ guardian, and since then, the number of pursuers has noticeably decreased.

Ross finally had the time to exact his revenge, and he was able to return to Academia.

The plan, which was proceeding smoothly, was put on hold by a group named ‘Special Section’.

And at a fast food restaurant, Ross ran into Lee Si-hyuk.

Lee Si-hyeok asked Ross.

‘What’s your relationship with the ‘Lost-Child Plan’?’

Ross has been researching the Special Section on his own.

Lee Si-hyeok has been receiving periodic psychiatric treatment for a long time.

There is only one answer if you know about the Lost-Child plan.

Lee Si-hyeok was a survivor of another experiment.

The fact that the Lost-Child plan was revealed to the public did not stop the human experimentation taking place in Academia.

I just moved the location to a more private place.

‘Why don’t you think about what you want to do?’

With that last word, Lee Shi-hyeok was knocked out by Ross’ ability.

It wasn’t a big deal, but Lee Si-hyeok’s words moved Ross’ heart.

Astray wants the collapse of the entire Academia.

Ross had followed Astray’s plan so far, but after meeting Lee Si-hyeok, he changed his mind a bit.

He clearly wants revenge.

However, the target is not the whole of Academia.

In any case, the target for his revenge is-.

“You are finally here.”

Looking at the board on the school gate that reads ‘Chungmyeong High School’, Ross murmured.

It took me 14 years to get here.
