Episode 118
#Hotel, suite.
Lee Woo-jin looked around while lying on his luxurious bed.
Although I couldn’t see it properly because my whole body was tightly bound, it was a luxurious scene reminiscent of a suite in a five-star hotel.
“Heh heh heh heh heh! Why, are you a little surprised that it’s not a place like an underground prison, Sub-Treasurer?”
“… … .”
Woojin, who entered the island and encountered General Choi, was subdued by him and ended up in his current state.
Even if Woojin had inhuman combat abilities, it was impossible for him to fight alone against a battalion-sized force fully armed in an open area.
“A building and army of this scale on an island. Every time I see it, I can’t even fathom how much human and material resources would have to be invested to build something like this.”
“Haha, even I think it’s amazing. Who would have thought that there would be such a luxurious hotel on an uninhabited island that doesn’t even show up on the map?”
Soon, General Choi continued speaking with snake-like eyes.
“Faith. If you have faith, there is nothing that cannot be done.”
The Tongcheon sect members standing next to General Choi raised Woojin’s bound body.
“How can you be such a guest, and not at least take a look around?”
General Choi, who thought he had already taken the initiative, began to show Lee Woo-jin around the island.
It was as if he was a child, holding my hand and walking around the neighborhood pretending to find his family together.
#swimming pool.
Healthy men and beautiful women are swimming naked in the clear water.
General Choi harasses a woman from Banra as she passes by.
#Dining hall.
Masked VIPs enjoy a sumptuous banquet amid the sounds of a magnificent orchestra.
General Choi grabs a handful of the rare delicacies on the large table and greedily puts them into his mouth.
#casino.
Gold chips piled up like a mountain. Amid the loud mechanical noise of slot machines, masked ‘VIPs’ laugh while playing cards.
“What do you think? This is the paradise we built. It’s much healthier than you might think, isn’t it?”
Those working also all have smiles on their faces.
“Look at those happy faces. Do you still think I caused those people to be miserable after seeing those faces?”
“… … .”
“When I think about it that way, I really feel sorry for this uncle.”
General Choi’s speech continued.
“Outside is hell. Instead, those who followed us here are experiencing a happiness that will never be experienced again in this world.”
“… … .”
“How about it? Do you have any intention of joining us in the sacred temple of our Tongcheon Church right now?”
“… … ?”
“No, right? Oh, I knew it.”
General Choi continued speaking.
“I think you’re making a big mistake. Your mother, Jeong Su-gyeong, was the one who wanted to come to Sky Island in the first place. She said that life was so hard. So if you say I’m at fault… … I guess it’s only because I saved your mother.”
People who leave the hell of reality and build their own paradise.
As General Choi said, on the outside this place looks like a peaceful paradise.
But Woojin could tell.
That this place is full of terrible lies.
“So, where is my mother whom you saved?”
“Oh, what’s the rush? You can take your time and talk about it later. But, you must have been five years old at that time. Do you think you can recognize your mother’s face?”
Woojin answered General Choi’s words.
“I am.”
“… … ?”
“I remember every moment from the moment my father hung himself from the ceiling until the moment I set foot here.”
This can be known because Woojin has memory, perception, and reasoning abilities that defy common sense.
Here.
“We haven’t seen any missing people or war refugees from around the world.”
As soon as Woojin uttered a word, the eyes of the ‘VIPs’ sitting in the casino all turned to him.
Cold silence.
The loud mechanical sound coming from the slot machine resonates, creating a strange tension in the room.
“Ah, it’s okay, it’s okay. Everyone, keep doing what you’re doing.”
General Choi continues speaking with a hollow laugh.
“What the hell are you talking about now? It’s not like you have any of the names of people who disappeared in the meantime stuck to your head.”
Woojin continued answering in a calm tone.
“The number of missing people worldwide over the past 20 years is approximately 4,432,880. Excluding cases caused by natural disasters and accidents, I have roughly calculated the number of people you have been involved in disappearing over the past 20 years.”
“… … What, what?”
“As a result, it is about 2.5% of the total statistics. The calculation is that it is close to at least 100,000 people.”
“… … Yes, what computer are you?”
“And their faces at the time of their disappearance are still etched into my head.”
It’s not just their faces.
“Have you ever looked closely at the faces of those who have lost their families?”
“… … ?”
“I… … did not come here alone.”
Woojin read their faces and eyes to understand their emotions.
“In the eyes of those who have lost their families… … there was no emotion, just like mine.”
Woojin can’t feel emotions.
But I can understand.
Their feelings, which they had discovered in this way, were telling themselves this.
“Put a bullet in your heart.”
Woojin didn’t come here alone from the beginning.
The sorrow of those who fell victim to the evil crimes of Tongcheon Church was engraved in my head and heart.
Clap! Clap! Clap!
“Hahaha, so you came all the way here with the ghosts of those missing people? Hey, Woojin, you must have watched too many cartoons since you were little. Gosh, look at those goosebumps, goosebumps!”
General Choi’s eyes slowly change after hearing Lee Woo-jin’s words, and soon begin to reveal their base true colors.
“Oh, that’s right. Your mother isn’t here. She was so rebellious on the way here that I… … .”
“I pushed it into the sea.”
“……ok?”
“His whole body was badly swollen and he was treated as an unidentified corpse.”
No one could tell that she was Jeong Su-gyeong, but Lee Woo-jin could.
Even though her face was unrecognizable, her physique matched the ‘warm embrace’ that had been holding her.
“Now that I think about it, isn’t this guy completely insane? Well, let’s say everything you said is true. So, what else can you do here now?”
Lee Woo-jin, who was listening to General Choi’s words, smiled without realizing it.
“… … Are you laughing?”
“Oh, I didn’t know. I wanted to try imitating the facial muscles that guys like you make in situations like this.”
“… … ?”
“You asked me earlier. How on earth did you get in here?”
By the way, General Choi hasn’t heard an answer to that yet.
“It came from heaven.”
“……what?”
“Not the fake stuff you’re talking about, but the real sky.”
“… … ?”
If General Choi had investigated Lee Woo-jin, he would have found out that he was employed as a free mercenary in Israel.
Even so, there is one thing you might not have known.
A fact that Woojin did not even inform the Israeli side that hired him.
“As I said before, I didn’t come alone.”
It wasn’t just Tongcheon-gyo that was hiding its huge body and operating in a deep place where people’s eyes couldn’t reach.
“They didn’t hire just me… … they hired my ‘team.’”
“……what?”
At that moment, General Choi felt a strange sense of discomfort while looking at Lee Woo-jin’s face, which was smiling bitterly.
Taang!
Clang!
Taang! Tang tang tang tang! Taang!
The dazzling display covering the ceiling shattered, and at the same time, a hole appeared on the foreheads of the followers surrounding Lee Woo-jin.
Bang! Bang bang bang bang bang!
At the same time, the disciples who were standing around General Choi with guns also collapsed to the ground all at once.
“What the heck, what the heck is this… …!”
Soon, the team members gather around Lee Woo-jin, whose entire body is tied up.
“Captain, you are late.”
A woman descends from the air on a rope and cuts the rope that binds Woojin.
Her true identity is none other than… … .
“Suyeon, what’s the situation outside?”
“We have already explored most of the island, and have also found a place where the missing people who were kidnapped appear to be gathered.”
“Where is the business?”
“Yes, we have located the location of the illegal organ transplant clinic that is connected to the drug lab as well as the brothel. We have identified most of the missing people, but there are still many minors whose identities are not yet registered in the database, so it will take some time.”
Woojin nodded and received the communication equipment from Sooyeon.
I’ll be giving orders to everyone soon.
“This is not an official military operation, but an arbitrary military action by Team ‘Bad Weather’. Therefore, the international law of war rules can be ignored. The VIPs who appear to have come to rest in the so-called ‘Paradise’ are all demons who kidnapped minors and even took out their hearts and drank their blood. Therefore, not a single one was left behind… … .”
Soon, the masked VIPs who had been looking at the situation with blank faces stood up from their seats.
“It doesn’t matter if you kill everyone.”
They start to run away frantically, but Woojin’s order has already been given.
Valid, valid, ta, ta, ta, ta, tadadadada!
The paradise that had been built more luxuriously than any other place soon became a fountain of blood.
“The goal is the destruction of the enemies. And, ‘salvation.’”
Soon, Woojin, who had finished communicating, headed in the direction General Choi had fled, and Suyeon followed him, providing cover.
“Whew, this is much bigger than the Caribbean ‘paradise’ that Captain rescued me from. Anyway, there’s a lot of money in there, you maggots.”
“… … I guess that’s because South Korea is where they originated.”
As mentioned before, Woojin learned of the existence of ‘Hyungsoo’ at the age of 5, and began preparing to fight them in earnest from the age of 10.
The fight against Tongcheongyo started a long time ago.
Since the time he was conducting covert operations as a member of the SAS, Woojin has been secretly investigating and tracking the locations of hidden ‘Sky Island Paradises’ around the world.
It was just a coincidence in the process that Soo-yeon, who had been sold as a ‘temple worker’ to a ‘paradise’ hidden somewhere in the Caribbean and had suffered all kinds of hardships, was rescued.
Of course, Sooyeon didn’t think that way.
After learning of the outrageous crimes committed by the Tongcheon Church, Suyeon joined Woojin’s team, ‘Akcheonweather’, and helped fight against them.
Team Bad Weather is made up of victims like Soo-yeon and the ‘avengers’ who are in the midst of grief and sorrow over the loss of their families.
“Suyeon.”
“Yes, Captain.”
“Once we destroy the remaining remnants in Korea and the rest of ‘Paradise,’ we’ll have some time to ourselves.”
Sooyeon immediately understood what Woojin meant by ‘time’.
“Yes? But… … .”
“I keep my word once I say it.”
‘Lee Su-yeon, shall I help you find it?’
Woojin had no intention of ever breaking his promise to find Suyeon.
“Captain… … .”
After a brief moment of emotion, Sooyeon followed Woojin with a much more serious expression on her face.
As the red rain poured down from all directions, Woojin faced General Choi one-on-one as he tried to escape the island.
“S#98. Sky Island (Night, Heavy Rain)”
In the midst of bad weather mixed with blood and rain, Lee Woo-jin and General Choi stand face to face.
“There is nowhere to run. Dozens of South Korean naval ships are already heading here, and all land routes are blocked.”
Woojin didn’t just mobilize his own team.
He informed Korea of the dangers of the Tongcheongyo and made them take action.
“Now, wait a minute. Listen to me, okay?”
“… … .”
“You… … Don’t you know how many great nobles we are connected to? If you kill me now, you’ll be finished that day! There will be no place in the world where you can escape. You’ll run away like your mother and die a dog’s death!”
Damn it.
“I, I was just doing what ‘that person’ told me to do. If you kill me now, you’ll never know who ‘that person’ is!”
Damn it.
“Inom―! Don’t you want to know who your real enemy is?!”
“I know.”
“… … ?”
“The one who abused my sister and made my mother run away.”
“… … .”
The warm food in the black bag he always brought with a smile.
The only one who could eat it was his son, Woojin.
He called Woojin, ‘the son of heaven.’
“25 years ago, the leader who first created the Tongcheon Church in this world was none other than my father. You took control of the religious order that your father created and began to grow it into the giant monster it is today.”
“… … !”
“Just as I did to my father, I will end your lives with my own hands.”
This was the reason why Lee Woo-jin was able to learn the truth about Tongcheon Church from a young age.
“S#99. Bad Weather”
Hyunsoo had no choice but to admit it.
‘My acting is still not good enough to compare to your villain acting.’
But that’s okay.
‘This isn’t acting that I do alone.’
Soon, Hyunsoo’s gaze turned to his stunt seniors and juniors who played the part of ‘Team Bad Weather’.
‘This is an action built up with everyone.’
“Now, wait a minute. Why are you doing this? Even so, as the current leader’s closest confidant, I have some idea of how the ‘holy war’ will proceed in the future. I will cooperate wholeheartedly from now on… … .”
“I know. That’s the plan.”
Because most of the content was already in my father’s notebook that I read when I was young.
Soon, General Choi realized that no amount of effort would work and muttered with a hollow smile.
“Haha, why does this kid have to know so much… … .”
Woojin’s new model was shot out.
Jang Gi-chun and Lee Jun-hyeok were not present in Woo-jin’s last action.
As if he had been waiting for this moment, the presence of Kim Young-cheol, who had been ‘training’ deep in the dream, expanded like a huge storm.
‘I understand why you wanted to take action.’
He just wanted to show his father, who had spent his whole life looking down at the ground… … a cool figure like the main character in an action movie on TV.
I wanted to show my son living a cool life.
―Why an action actor? Well… … If there’s a TV in the sky, I’m sure it’s watching. My father is always… … .
Because he was the kind of person who would raise his head with his hunched back and look only at me.
The moment when Hyun-soo understood all of Kim Young-cheol’s dreams and the sorrow in his life.
The action actor let out a storm of emotions that he had suppressed for the sake of his dream.
“Your evil deeds end there.”
That was some really cool action.
