294 – Chapter 11. Enlightenment comes from patriotism (2)

If you look at martial arts, there is something called enlightenment.

This realization comes from variety, and this ‘variety’ is literally variety.

Some get enlightenment from beggars they meet on the road, some get enlightenment from the laws of nature, and some get it through relationships between men and women.

And here, as an S-class, there is a man who has attained enlightenment.

“Is that a new ability?”

“Yes. It’s a first for everyone else.”

Taejo pointed to the steel hands clinging to his body.

“It’s still multitasking, so up to four can each move freely.”

As soon as Taejo’s words were finished, the four hands other than the original body on the shoulders began to move freely.

The movement was the same as that of a real person, and I was in awe of Taejo’s newly developed ability.

“Excellent. You’ve gotten stronger.”

“At least, not yet… But, your girlfriend’s energy…?”

“Ah. Yesterday, I was a bit upset.”

Ymir silently lowers his head.

To be precise, she was exhausted and was sleeping soundly with her face leaning on my shoulder.

Although it is in a transformed state, there are no common red marks or scars on the body, but it is unavoidable to doze off from morning due to physical fatigue.

I had preached all night about talking about patriotism in the train cabin yesterday, and Ymir decided not to talk about it again.

“Is it because I’ve been feeling a little low lately, or did I just want a new stimulus? I think I’ve crossed the line a little bit, so I got scolded.”

“That, violence…”

“I just lightly clubbed.”

“aha.”

Perhaps because he was also a man, Taejo understood right away.

“It must have been a big deal. I almost made a big mistake by talking about invitations.”

“Four people, it seems like everyone has been to heaven this morning.”

“Yes. I had a bit of trouble giving ‘massages’ to the four of them. Thanks to that, my ability control has become more sophisticated.”

“Is it a massage?”

“It’s a massage. It relaxes muscles, presses hard, and releases tension.”

Seeing the sticky movement of the four steel hands clinging to Taejo’s body again, I thought that S-class is S-class, too.

Taejo The Fingering Master.

As long as he has six hands, he will be able to use these hands for all sorts of applications in the future.

With a weapon in each hand, you could fight like a real Asura.

Once you hold a pistol in each hand and shoot, six shots may fly at the same time.

You can use the wire to fly and move your four hands freely by remote control.

Above all, the standard of ‘four’ is just a hand that can move freely, and if all hands are used equally, the number will reach dozens.

“Hyeon Cheol-soo, I have a problem.”

“What is it?”

“I want to make this official public later.”

“Well….”

As long as he has already shown me the ability to manipulate metal, Taejo has no intention of hiding the fact that he is Taejo.

“You mean worrying, maybe you want to wrap up the ‘moment’ that made you realize that?”

“Yes.”

Taejo’s eyes began to twinkle.

As soon as I noticed his concern, he looked at me with eyes full of anticipation, wondering if there might be an answer.

“I think people will think very funny if I say that I got this ability from patriotism.”

Well.

In this world, the theory of universal patriotism is working properly, but would people think it was funny even if they developed this ability from patriotism?

It seems that there is something written like that in the hero wiki.

“Kim Tae-sik, I understand your concerns, but one thing is clear.”

“What is it?”

“Awareness of this ability through patriotism, and only needing this ability for patriotism is the true development of this ability.”

I have already checked two cases.

One is a woman who learned to move in space with the determination to break into a man’s room in order to avoid the eyes of others and show patriotism.

One is a woman who is jealous of such a woman and has developed her own ability as an alter ego with the determination that she will always be in my room.

“It’s a little hard to tell directly about that case, but there are probably quite a few cases in the world where this ability was created for patriotism. It’s just because they’re hiding the truth from everyone.”

I pretended to zip up my mouth.

“For now, ask the four of them to keep quiet. Instead, you’ll probably have to give them a silencer injection periodically.”

“That’s what…”

“…….”

Come to think of it, I think this guy had a fiancee too.

well, you’ll figure it out

With this, if she was a woman who would become a devil, she would have already become a devil in the case of the gene thief Feigrin.

“And you have to come up with some other excuses in moderation. I think the most suitable suggestions are two.”

“two?”

“Yes. One is to reveal that it is the original. Whether it’s a movie, a novel, or a cartoon, it’s to say that he developed this ability after seeing this through some medium.”

“It’s the traditional way.”

“That’s right.”

Development of this ability through media.

This isn’t much of a problem if the user of the ability officially says ‘I took a motif from here’.

There is one serious problem called copyright, but right now, this world puts more emphasis on the use of supernatural powers by people with special abilities rather than copyright.

Of course, if a person with this ability copied the same or 99% similar ability in fantasy from the media and said no, he would be criticized.

“Then do you have any good examples?”

“Yes. Dr. Octopus. Sergeant Gadget. Asuraman.”

“…what is that all about?”

” “

Taejo.

17 years old this year.

A boy who is not in this world, but was born after the 2002 World Cup.

“Kim Tae-shik, please don’t look at me with the gaze of ‘what is that?’

“Ah, yes.”

“It’s not like I’m very old, or old, or anything like that. I’m a superpowered person, and I was born after the cataclysm.”

Do Chang Nam.

I’m just a classic, not a person who follows the classics until my actual age.

“I was just referring to an old source, you know?”

“…So, you want me to tell you that you got the motif from that classic?”

“There are ways to do that, but there’s one that’s easiest.”

I stretched my hand out to the side.

“It is said that they awakened in the midst of a crisis. For example, when a baby falls from a bridge, what will a person instinctively do to rescue the child?”

“…hand?”

“That’s it.”

“Aha. You’re saying to stage a crisis and make it look like you’ve awakened this ability in that crisis.”

“Yes.”

Taejo clapped his hands and nodded.

“Okay. Thanks for the advice. Oh, and.”

Taejo stretched out the hand of the Asura he created with this ability toward me.

“Thank you in advance. For some reason, I think I will see you often in the future.”

“I wish you well.”

I grabbed Asura’s hand with my normal hand, which was not deliberately enchanted.

It was as hard as steel and didn’t feel warm, but the handshake felt embarrassing.

“……!”

“Kim Tae-shik. Let me tell you about the thing that people with special abilities need to pay attention to the most.”

Kwaaak.

Warm energy flowed from Ymir, who reached out from behind my back, and directed it toward my hand, and I blew mana into my hand as much as possible so that Ymir’s color was not revealed.

“Just because you’ve learned a new ability, you shouldn’t brag about it.”

“…….”

“This ability is just this ability. Keep in mind that no matter how new the technology, it can be destroyed at any time.”

“You…you seem to be a greater person than I thought.”

I guess so.

The S class shook hands, but I accepted it as it was.

“Who are you? What the hell. I’ve never heard of anyone like you.”

“You’ve probably heard of it. But it’s just an invisible existence.”

“…….”

“I’m just the guy you invited on your way to Sinuiju, and this is my girlfriend.”

“…….”

If you ask for more details, he won’t answer anyway.

When the silent pressure was sent, Taejo relaxed in Asura’s hand and lamented.

“Haa. There are too many S-ranks in the world.”

“…….”

That’s a line that looks like it’s about to fall.

“Okay. It doesn’t matter who you are, whether or not there is an S-class that I don’t know about. You, when I fight S-class beauties from China and Russia, I’ll pass the baton to you if I think I’ll be defeated.”

“Then you might end up just watching from the sidelines.”

“Even if that’s the case, it’s not my pride that counts, it’s the resources of this land.”

Taejo opened the lid of the cola can with the Taegeuk pattern on it.

“I don’t care if my pride is broken. More importantly, it’s the pride of this country.”

“…….”

how.

Could such an upright existence be born from the wicked woman named Min Ji-young?

“Tonight, we will depart for Shinuiju. We will travel separately by car, not by train, and we will arrange a car for the two of you separately.”

“finally.”

“Yes. There was intelligence that maybe tonight…or tomorrow, they will be crossing the border.”

consistent with what we have found.

Certainly, Taejo as a black agent doesn’t seem to be a nerd.

“Before we go to Sinuiju, there are a few more things I’d like to ask you, brother.”

“…brother?”

“I’m asking because you’re a more patriot than I am, and you know more.”

“…I want to ask something.”

“That.”

Taejo licked his lips and asked cautiously.

“…How did you get permission from your girlfriend to do things with other women?”

“…….”

after.

“I’m a man with a fiancee, so how about getting permission and dealing with another woman-”

During the time heading to Sinuiju, I gave advice about the relationship between men and women.
