Chapter 315
Chapter 315: Chapter 315
He hoped that all it took was a few attacks, but that was simply Min Sung’s hope.
Reality was different.
The 9 fallen angels who were now devils, didn’t know what fear was.
They charged toward Min Sung like machines in order to fulfill their mission.
Upon seeing their movements, Min Sung had a feeling that they wouldn’t reveal information in Hellcard no matter how much he tortured them.
But obtaining information from them was the only way, so he had to do what he could to them.
The 9 fallen angels almost looked like beasts who only had the instinct to attack.
They didn’t seem to be conscious in any way.
They were simply puppets controlled by Hellcard.
Regardless…
Min Sung remained calm and collected despite the 9 Dionysus Gods’ explosive speed and attacks.
It was a long habit of his to not let go of his tension.
That was what he naturally learned during his 100 years in the Demonic Realm.
But right now, he had no other choice.
Despite the constant attacks and swinging of their weapons, Min Sung comfortably and smoothly dodged them.
The reason why he was simply dodging without making any counter-attacks was so that he could measure just how much he had changed.
And he sensed that he had changed beyond measure.
The power of the great god was surprising.
As soon as the great god’s power was added to what he already had, it resulted in a surprising result.
It was no ordinary transformation.
He was now a god.
Although they were now simply fallen angels, in the case that Dionysus Gods became fallen angels, they usually became more powerful as a result.
But even while the Dionysus Gods attacked all at once, Min Sung didn’t feel pressured whatsoever.
Min Sung dodged the attacks with a comfortable look on his face, and he either blocked or dodged the magic.
That was the end of measuring his own level.
Now, he had to find out more about Hellcard through them.
Seeing from the way they attacked, they were nearly out of their minds, so they probably wouldn’t make much sense, but it was worth a try.
As soon as Min Sung punched one of the fallen angels in the stomach, a light flashed. His black wing broke, and half of his body exploded as he fell to the ground.
Meanwhile, the other 8 fallen angels attacked, but none of them were able to even graze past Min Sung.
Every time Min Sung dodged their attacks and used his hand to attack, the fallen angels fell without any energy.
In order to obtain information, he couldn’t kill them immediately, so all he made an effort to control his power.
Min Sung broke off the fallen angels’ wings as well as their arms and legs.
He then grabbed the last-standing fallen angel by the throat and threw him to the ground.
Boommmmmm!
The big crack formed in the ground, and that fallen angel got buried in the ground of the Demonic Realm.
Min Sung looked down where the fallen angel once was and tilted his head.
‘Did I use too much strength?’
Min Sung clicked his tongue and looked down at the fallen angels on the ground as he knitted his brows.
It was time for his final decision.
And he could only find out if they would cooperate or if they were no longer able to make conversation by starting a formal interrogation.
“Let’s start off slowly, fallen devils.”
Min Sung spoke in a dry voice as he walked toward them.
***
Ho Sung Lee got ready to attend a formal event.
In order to make it so that Min Sung could return to a pleasant environment, Ho Sung Lee cleaned. He made all of the necessary preparations and then got ready to leave the house.
Bowl waved his hand. Repone flew in the air as he watched, and Ssol was stuck to his leg.
“I’m off.”
Ho Sung Lee took Ssol off of his leg and opened the door.
It was raining heavily.
He was wearing a suit, but he couldn’t help but get wet.
After all, he wasn’t Min Sung Kang, who could use his Aura to protect his entire body.
Ho Sung Lee thought about how impressive he was before opening his umbrella and heading outside.
There was a black sedan that was waiting for him.
The driver got out and opened the door for him.
After passing his umbrella to the driver, Ho Sung Lee got into the car.
The driver packed away the umbrella and drove off to their destination.
At that moment, the phone rang.
The caller was Commander Ji Yoo Kim from Central Institute.
“Yes, Commander Kim. I’m heading there right now.”
You left early. When you get there, you’ll be escorted to the waiting room. And then they’ll give you a script. There will be appropriate responses to difficult questions so please reference them.”
“Haha, thank you.”
No, thank you.
“Then I’ll see you later. I will see you, right?”
Of course. I’ll be able to see you in about 30 minutes to an hour after you arrive.
“Great. Then I’ll see you then.”
Upon hanging up, Ho Sung Lee let out a long sigh.
He was nervous.
He was already used to getting attention from all over the world.
But he had never attended such a formal event, so he couldn’t help but sense the responsibility.
Since he was there as a representative of Min Sung Kang, his shoulders felt even heavier.
“Calm down. Just do as you prepared,” Ho Sung Lee mumbled to himself and looked out the window to watch the rain in order to control his mind.
He worked hard to prepare, but now that it was time for the actual interview, his mind went blank, but he also believed that he could do a good job.
No, he had to.
Ho Sung Lee lowered the window. He took out a cigarette and lit it with a lighter.
***
As soon as he arrived at the building, there were reporters waiting for him.
He was used to dealing with reporters, but today felt a little different.
Ho Sung Lee straightened his clothes and go out of the car as soon as the driver opened the door.
The cameras flashed from left and right.
There were barricades, and as Commander Ji Yoo Kim had said, someone approached Ho Sung Lee to escort him.
Ho Sung Lee, who was walking toward the building, stopped to look up at the sky.
The dark clouds in the sky were slowly turning red.
The reporters also followed Ho Sung Lee’s eyes toward the sky.
The reporters began to move quickly in response to what seemed like a strange omen.
***
The fallen angels screamed on the land of the Demonic Realm.
Thanks to Min Sung’s abilities, the fallen angels were experiencing their worst nightmare.
Making one go mad was one of Min Sung’s specialties.
“Impressive,” mumbled Min Sung as he watched the Dionysus Gods.
If they were ordinary humans, they wouldn’t have endured even a minute of it, but the fallen angels had been enduring it for 10 minutes already.
At this point, Min Sung worried that they would no longer be able to speak even if they were willing to.
It appeared that since they were controlled by Hellcard, they had no power to make their own decisions.
For that reason, Min Sung decided that there was no point in torturing them any further.
Power fluttered in Min Sung’s hands.
When he waved his hand once, Min Sung’s power caused for the 5 Dionysus Gods near him to go extinct along with the sound of a thudding noise.
The fallen angels instinctively reacted in fear and crawled on the ground.
Min Sung had no intention to sympathize with the fallen angels.
He had lived in that world.
The world where he had to kill to survive.
And this was the Demonic Realm, not the human world.
So he had no reason to hesitate.
Kaboom!
Lightning flashed from Min Sung’s hand. It flowed through the ground of the Demonic Realm and wrapped around the remaining fallen angels.
“Aghhhh!”
The fallen angels screamed and their bodies trembled.
It was a type of last hope, but they didn’t say a single thing about Hellcard.
Min Sung clicked his tongue and clenched his fists.
Boommmmmm!
A powerful explosion took place, causing for the fallen angels to turn into black ashes.
He could no longer see even a trace of the fallen angels.
All he could see were dark ashes floating in the air.
Min Sung walked through the dark smoke and ashes as he glared his eyes.
“Where are you, Hellcard?”
In order to find him, Min Sung used his abilities to look far and wide, but he was unable to locate Hellcard.
The Demonic Realm was vast.
A bothersome game of hide and seek began.
***
After fixing his clothes in the washroom, Ho Sung Lee took some deep breaths.
He was now ready to go out.
Ho Sung Lee left the washroom and walked out of the waiting room.
He followed the staff who were standing by and headed toward the official meeting.
He walked through the long corridors and entered a hall that was filled with reporters with laptops in front of them.
The formal questions were going to take place according to a planned order.
After standing on the podium and checking the mic, a staff member nodded his way.
That was when the formal interview began.
Following the lead of the host, Ho Sung Lee was going to receive questions.
That was all that was planned for today.
“A Korean reporter will ask you a question first.”
Following the host’s cue, the prepared reporter held up his mic and asked the first question to Ho Sung Lee.
“Why are you representing Min Sung Kang in his stead?”
It was a completely expected question.
“He has trusted me with most of the duties for a long time now, and standing in for him in media-related settings is a part of it.”
Ho Sung Lee answered without showing an ounce of nervousness.
