Episode 442 – Room 206, The Cursed Room – ‘The Demon King Resurrects After 100 Days’ Re (7)
– Yoo Song-i
“Pure will? Lady May, I don’t know what you mean….”
What the heck, what the heck, what the heck!
“I guess it’s intuition. Leon, I think your mental state is not normal.”
I called my colleagues in a hurry, barely holding onto my senses as I was about to leave!
Yoo Song-i: Grandpa! Brother Jin-cheol! Gather right now!
Kim Muk-seong: What? I told you not to come here without permission earlier.
Yoo Song-i: Come right now!
Kim Muk-seong: Why is it when Jin-cheol isn’t around!
Trying to remain as calm as possible – I’m already sweating profusely!
“Wh, what are you talking about!”
The sijo looked at me with an excited expression and said.
“You may not know, but I’ve seen Leon since before you were born. The Leon you see now… well, he’s so different from the one I know. Is it the power of the bracelet?”
At this point I accepted reality.
The poem found out that I had shaken Leon’s mind.
However, I think that they manipulated it from various perspectives because they were unaware of the power of being ‘loved’.
Ironically, it was the mayor who refuted Sijo’s words instead of me who was flustered.
“I spend more than half of my day in the office in Paradise, and the illusion of the bracelet disappears in Paradise. Don’t you know? I think you’re misunderstanding something, May.”
That’s right.
The bracelet’s sensory control does not work within Paradise, and the mayor goes to work in Paradise every day.
However, the sijo showed a strong attitude.
“I know. But Leon, your condition is definitely strange. Your daughter may have powers separate from the bracelet.”
Something is strange.
I can’t explain my strong conviction by simply saying that I felt strange because the market was being friendly to me.
Have you figured out that the market’s mind has been twisted by supernatural means?
Just when things were starting to get complicated, things took a turn for the worse.
“Leon, stay still. Don’t close your eyes. I’ll restore your consciousness right now.”
“yes?”
While Leon was flustered, just like me, Shijo approached him and made eye contact.
I feel it.
My powerful blessing, the essence of affinity, ‘The Beloved’ is being released!
Eventually, the frozen spirit in the market woke up.
The moment when Leon Kadyrov, realizing the change, looked at me with cold eyes.
— Clang!
A cold gun is aimed at the market.
“Heh heh, really… Things seem to be taking a strange turn all of a sudden… .”
Grandfather Mukseong interrupted my secret meal with Sijo after hearing my plea for help!
Kim Muk-seong: What’s going on?
Yoo Song-i: The Beloved One Gets Caught
Kim Muk-seong: Oh my!
The situation wasn’t something that could be resolved with just ‘Oh my’.
I was so confused that I couldn’t explain it.
What does it mean when a loved one is released?
Leon Kadyrov no longer loves me, and my actions so far are seen by the market as nothing more than ‘treason’ or ‘usurpation’.
Naturally, memories of the first attempt cross my mind.
At that time, the mayor, who had awakened from love with the power of One More Chance, shot me dead without hesitation.
Another similar type of incident comes to mind.
Didn’t the doctor’s former colleagues feel a tremendous sense of betrayal when they woke up from the hypnosis of the maze?
Wouldn’t the same be true for Leon?
At that moment, Shijo opened his mouth.
“Subordinate? Hey, it doesn’t look like you’re using a cell phone, so how did you call me?”
“Stay still. My fingers tremble every time the ancestor moves.”
“You! This kid -”
Since Shijo himself possesses the ability to teleport, aiming a gun at him would be useless, but Leon does not have that kind of power.
Kim Muk-seong: Sijo doesn’t have the power to subdue me from a distance. Calm down.
When I heard my grandfather’s calm message, my pounding heart began to calm down.
As the saying goes, even the ancestor with various superpowers does not have the power to subdue the grandfather in an instant.
If there had been, I would have already subdued my grandfather and sorted out the situation.
Finally, the poet shouted in a sharp voice.
“Do you think you can survive in my hands after doing something like this?”
“…”
This woman is a real problem.
If there was only one Leon Kadyrov, I would have just closed my eyes and shot him dead.
But how will we handle the wrath of the ancestors that will come next?
It would be difficult to clash with the original in the first place.
Because he knows quite a few of the secrets of Room 206 that even the mayor doesn’t know about.
Did Gain oppa’s ‘Scenario Understanding’ also ask him to contact Sijo and get information?
Since he possesses various superpowers, it is uncertain whether he can be killed.
If I keep the market alive, the market will try to kill me, but if I kill the market, the city will try to kill me.
Yoo Song-i: What should I do?
Grandfather also couldn’t answer and only smiled bitterly.
At that moment, in the midst of the tense atmosphere, Leon opened his mouth.
“It’s Songi.”
“…”
“It’s Songi.”
“yes.”
“A few days ago, during the health checkup. I was wondering what was going on when a few informants on the first floor made a strange mistake. Did you start interfering with it then?”
“…”
“Did they manipulate the test results? That’s strange. I checked again three times after that, but the results were the same…”
Leon’s question is simple.
When I came to my senses, I realized that the health checkup process that led to my succession to the market was suspicious, but the results themselves were accurate.
This is because Leon himself had received the same results in other personal examinations.
“I never manipulated you. You’re really sick.”
Leon was terminally ill before we even got to him.
“I tried to manipulate it, but it was really a time limit without any need to manipulate it?”
It’s similar.
To be exact, the intention was not to manipulate the results, but to create a disease.
Leon, who had been smiling bitterly for a moment, looked at Sijo and spoke.
“May, please leave.”
“What? W-What! If I leave, this girl will kill you! Do you understand?”
The mayor continued speaking in an even tone.
“To maintain paradise, we need someone to manage the market, that is, the indomitable reason. This is not something that just anyone can do. It is something that only those with special powers can do.”
Could turn back time, or control the human mind.
“There are only two qualified people, and one of them has a limited time.”
“you…!”
The poem burst into laughter.
“So, it would be wrong for you to kill Songi. Then who will govern the city? Will the founder do it himself from now on?”
Hearing that, a belated question arose in my mind.
In the first place, why did the city government establish a separate city administrator called the Kadyrov family?
Is there any reason why you can’t do it?
“Leon! You… .”
“good bye.”
May looked like she didn’t know what to say for a moment, then sighed deeply and disappeared.
As the poem disappeared, the surroundings became quiet for a moment.
— Dalgrak!
There was a sound of a fork hitting a plate.
“…”
“…”
Because Leon Kadyrov slowly bit into his sirloin steak.
He opened his mouth after eating two more pieces of meat, as if he was oblivious to his surroundings.
“It’s Songi.”
“… yes.”
“I didn’t know your dining etiquette was this bad. I didn’t know the dining room would smell like gunpowder.”
“…”
“Don’t worry.”
“…What are you worried about?”
“Didn’t you think that May might become hostile towards you like this?”
“…”
Has the market learned some kind of mind control trick?
As Leon said, I was worried that Shijo would turn against me from now on.
Because there is quite a bit of information to be obtained from her.
“May is obviously human, so she has an emotional side. However, she is ultimately someone who will make sacrifices for a greater cause.”
“…”
“You are her only alternative. If we kill you, there is no way to sustain the city.”
“…”
“When did you recruit the informer?”
“It’s been a long time.”
Grandpa, you were on my side even before you came into room 206.
“Did you use the same amount of force on the informers as you did on me?”
“…”
‘Beloved’ is an ability that can be used on one person.
Of course, I have no intention of going around talking carelessly about these weaknesses.
“Don’t you think you’ll tell this insolent informant to put down his gun?”
“Because I’m scared.”
“So, would you rather kill your father than be killed by him?”
“I’m thinking about it.”
“Well, I raised my daughter well.”
“Yes, that’s right.”
I really had a hard time understanding this man named Leon Kadyrov.
As the beloved was broken, the trust between me and this man was also broken.
The only reason I didn’t kill Leon was because I couldn’t handle the conflict with the ancestors that would result from him.
However, Leon himself persuaded Shijo.
From now on, no matter what happens, just leave.
The only one who can sustain the city is Songi Kadyrov, so don’t harm him in the future.
The poet was convinced by these words.
And now, I have no reason to keep the market alive any longer.
“The steak is delicious. Can I finish the meal?”
“…”
Let’s think about it the other way around.
Is it really necessary to kill this person?
Leon Kadyrov is a very smart and capable person.
Also, when I see that the conflict with Sijo was resolved in my favor, I don’t think there is much animosity towards me.
therefore –
“The poison is draining from your eyes.”
“yes?”
“Are you thinking something like, ‘I think I can save my dad.’”
“…”
“It seems like your head is working well, and May-sama did a good job of persuading you, so I think you’re on Songi’s side.”
“… dad.”
“How about this?”
— Bang!
“Ugh!”
With a single gunshot, the grandfather’s body began to disintegrate.
In a split second, countless thoughts flashed through my mind.
how?
The market didn’t even lift a finger?
Did Leon have any superpowers I don’t know about?
Or did he control the turrets placed here and there in the floating mansion?
This is not the time to be worrying about such things.
Because the market can hurt me without me lifting a finger!
Immediately afterwards, the bracelet began to emit a bright blue light.
Leon fell under the chair in agony from the twisted senses, and I picked up my grandfather’s pistol that had fallen on the floor.
— Clang!
With trembling hands, he points the gun at his father.
I, so… .
“We need to aim a little higher.”
“Dad, what the hell are you….”
I can’t understand.
I just can’t understand this man, Leon Kadyrov!
If you could kill a person without touching them, you could have killed me, right?
The first time, I actually killed him without hesitation!
Why didn’t you kill him?
Because I have a limited time?
Because there is no time to create another successor?
If you don’t plan on killing me anyway, then why are you doing this shit –
“Are you curious as to why this is happening?”
“…”
“I can’t trust myself.”
“What is that -”
“Also, I just found out today.”
“what?”
“My daughter is such a bitch.”
The inappropriate swear words coming from the mayor’s mouth left me speechless.
“what?”
“That’s fortunate. This city is not one that can be ruled by good people.”
“…”
“Read it.”
— Bang!
A gunshot rang out.
Now, only one Kadyrov remains in this position.
