âHaha! I finally got it!â
âExcuse me, Mr Huntsman. It isnât a good thing to be too close to Hunter Choi Yeonseung right now.â
One of his subordinates approached and whispered in Huntsmanâs ear.
Choi Yeonseungâs popularity was now soaring into the sky.
âThere has never been a case where a foreigner ranks first in the approval ratings as a presidential candidate and it will never happen again in the future.â
Naturally, the other candidates were now thinking about what to do with Choi Yeonseung. It was the same with Huntsmanâs camp.
-If we canât be with Choi Yeonseung, we have to somehow keep him in check!
Choi Yeonseung had a pretty close relationship with Huntsmanâs rival, Governor Kenny.
Huntsman, who had to defeat Governor Kenny to become the candidate, had to somehow undermine Choi Yeonseungâs popularity.
...He wasnât sure how it was possible given the current situation, but Huntsman had to at least avoid getting an autograph from the other person.
âWhy?â
âHuh? Didnât I explain it to you last time?â
âIs that so? I donât remember. Say it again. Why?â
âI told you! In the current situation, Hunter Choi Yeonseung will politically support Governor Kenny...â
âAre you raising your voice to me?â
Huntsman looked at his subordinate with disbelief.
How dare he shout at Huntsman just now? In addition, it was just a staff member?
He dared to raise his voice to the best entrepreneur and now presidential candidate in the United States?
âN-No.â:
âNo what? You raised your voice to me!â
âIâm sorry. I will explain again...â
âI donât need it. Get out of here now!â
â...â
The subordinateâs mouth twitched a few times in disbelief. Then he turned around and walked out of the hall.
Choi Yeonseungâs hearing had developed to the extreme, so he could hear the subordinate muttering while leaving, âThis bastard, die.â
âHe is a really crazy guy.â
âAh. Excuse me. Some strange guy took up my time. Sometimes when you are too kind, subordinates will crawl up like this.â
âIt is really mysterious. I donât know how people are so ungrateful,â Choi Yeonseung said.
Dealing with a lunatic was easier than expected.
He just had to do it like he did against the demons when he was running the inn in the Abyss.
Regardless of what the other party said, he just had to give three answers like, âI see,â âThatâs amazingâ and âIt is interestingâ and nod. Then the other party would be satisfied.
âIt worked out. I donât think it is a bad idea to take this opportunity to feel out this person.â
-You have really become a politician.
The goddess of sloth said in amazement at Choi Yeonseungâs changed appearance.
She didnât know if he originally had this talent or if the circumstances changed him, but Choi Yeonseung was surprisingly talented in politics.
âHe originally wasnât a constellation, but he is doing a good job fulfilling the responsibilities of a constellation.â
She was looking forward to what else he would show in the future.
âThere has been a lot of talk that I am supporting Governor Kenny, but that is all nonsense. I donât support Governor Kenny.â
âAs expected! We canât trust the media. They are all spreading fake news!â
âNo, I didnât mean that... Forget it.â
Choi Yeonseung tried to clear the misunderstanding but failed. It was because this wasnât the point.
âI think someone better than Governor Kenny should be president.â
Huntsmanâ eyes lit up at Choi Yeonseungâs words.
Why was Choi Yeonseung saying this now?
A strong leader who could get through this time of crisis and chaos!
It was an allusion to Huntsman.
âAs expected... You have good eyes. I, Huntsman, am the only person who can make the United States strong again. I am also a real American like Hunter Choi Yeonseung... No, it is reassuring to have a real hunter supporting me.â
âDoes this guy want me to be an American?â
Choi Yeonseung couldnât believe it.
No matter how ignorant, how could a presidential candidate possibly make this mistake?
âI also read some classic military books from South Korea. Sun Tzuâs military tactics. The Three Kingdoms.â
âI-I see.â
Even if all the sentences were wrong, he couldnât point it out. Choi Yeonseung just listened.
âLooking at the Three Kingdoms, Liu Bai obtained Lu Bu and unified the world. Isnât that similar to the current situation? Choi Yeonseung. You are Lu Bu!â n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
-Oh. Lu Bu mustâve been an outstanding warrior on Earth.
-Donât listen to him. He is completely wrong.
-??
â...Iâm not sure yet. Iâve never seen what you are capable of.â
âThen continue to look!â
Huntsman laughed confidently. Choi Yeonseung took the opportunity to ask, âDo you have any plans?â
âOf course! As you will soon find out, Isabella Meyer has joined my camp.â
â!â
Isabella Meyer.
It was the name of an American A-grade hunter that even Choi Yeonseung knew.
Due to the nature of hunters, whose desire to save their own lives increased as their rank went up, there were very few A-grade hunters who were active.
Such active hunters usually had their reasons.
Pretending that a constellation was a human and trying to gather peopleâs faith.
Or they were so wasteful that it wasnât enough no matter how much money they earned.
Or fanatical patriotism.
Isabella Meyer was the last case.
Her nickname was Captain America.
âI remember seeing her during the Abyss raid last time.â
He remembered her saying to fight to the end even though he told her to retreat.
The constellationsâ fanatics were difficult to deal with, but she was just as hard to deal with.
However, contrary to Choi Yeonseungâs expectations, Isabella Meyer was popular.
First of all, just being an active A-grade hunter gave her a high score.
Moreover, she came from a gorgeous background.
She came from a huge political family and all her other siblings were active as politicians.
On top of that, she always emphasized patriotism and shouted about a great country. It was natural for her to be loved by those who were proud of the United States.
âNo. By the way, how did she join this person?â
Choi Yeonseung felt it didnât make sense.
It was usually hard to get the support of an A-grade hunter.
There was almost nothing to regret after becoming an A-grade hunter.
What was going on?
âDid they connect to each other because they are both crazy?â
âCan I ask why she joined you?â
âShe was deeply impressed by my commitment.â
âOh... I want to hear it too. Can you tell me?â
âThere is nothing difficult about it. It is a pledge to attack the Abyss.â
â...Isnât everyone doing that?â
Before becoming president, the presidential candidate of not just the United States, but all around the world, would make pledges such as, âI will work hard to capture the Abyss.â
Of course, it used to be space. Now it was changed to the Abyss. The actual results werenât significant.
âHaha. I am different. I am going to force all the hunters in the US to capture the Abyss. No matter the cost!â
â...â
Choi Yeonseung was stunned.
âIsnât he a spy from China?â
It was an ignorant method that the Chinese government would choose.
Targeting the Abyss wasnât just about having a lot of numbers.
They had to think of conquering the Abyss as conquering a very rare and capricious dungeon.
A dungeon couldnât be cleared unless they knew how to attack.
Pushing hunters like crazy would only increase the number of deaths exponentially and they wouldnât be able to conquer it.
The one who made this suggestion and the hunter who accepted it...
âSuddenly, I miss South Korea.â
Choi Yeonseung suddenly missed the politicians of South Korea.
When he was in South Korea, he resented them and said, âWhy are you holding me back so much?â Now that he left his hometown and came far away, he thought, âAt that level, they are fairies.â
âIt is a secret, but I plan on leaving for Arizona soon with Hunter Isabella Meyer.â
What Choi Yeonseung showed in Texas deeply impressed all the politicians of the United States.
Ah, it would be great to campaign like this!
Huntsman was naturally one of those people.
âCrazy people only learn weird things.â
âHunter Isabella Meyer is enough to wipe them all out! Haha.â
âI see. It looks like you can do well.â
Choi Yeonseung responded roughly while thinking to himself.
âI have to go first.â
Huntsman would be frustrated, but what could he do?
Originally, the person who did this type of thing first would be the person in charge.
***
âIsabella Meyer!â
âNo way, how could it be Isabella Meyer?â
It was as Huntsman said. Isabella Meyer appeared late.
Everyone in the room was stunned by the appearance of the A-grade hunter.
Could it be that she was here to support someone?
âHahaha! Please welcome her with a round of applause. Hunter Isabella Meyer is here!â
Huntsman walked around while laughing excitedly.
At this sight, everyone present realized why Isabella Meyer had come.
She was here to support Huntsman!
âThis is nonsense! That clown?!â
âHow much money did he pay?!â
âCould it really be Huntsmanâs time?â
Some politicians were shocked and some noticed the unusual flow.
After todayâs event, the fact that Isabella Meyer supported Huntsman would be in the media.
Huntsman was a man who used all types of foul language and had little political experience, but that didnât matter.
Once he had a buzz like this, no one could stop his momentum.
The one who received the biggest shock was Governor Kenny.
Despite being called the hero of Texas, Governor Kenny was pushed to second place by Huntsman. Now he looked like the sky had collapsed after seeing Isabellaâs appearance.
He had been in politics for a long time, so his intuition was sending him signals.
This...
It was really dangerous!
Tak.
Choi Yeonseung placed his hand on Governor Kennyâs shoulder.
âIt is a bit too much to do this now but... You havenât forgotten your promise of support if you are eliminated, have you?â
â...!!!â
Governor Kennyâs face was completely ashen.
He never imagined that he would fail.
âNot yet, not yet! Donât worry. It is a long race. It is just getting started!â
âYes. Have strength.â
Choi Yeonseung nodded and walked away.
He had heard enough, so he was going to leave the party and head to Arizona right away.
-What a great politician you have become...!
The goddess of sloth was even more impressed.
He said something on the surface only to hit the other party in the back of the head. Wasnât this what politics was all about?
Governor Kenny was unaware that Choi Yeonseung had disappeared and headed toward Huntsman.
He felt bitter, but since they were from the same party, he had to show some courtesy at an event like this.
âDamn bastards.â
Already, some politicians were seen heaping praise on Huntsman. It was obvious whose side they were standing on.
âI greet Mr Huntsman. Thank you for coming all this way.â
âAh. It isnât a big deal. A person from the same party went through such great hardships and managed to overcome it, so I should come to find you.â
Huntsman nodded with pride.
What was surprising was the humility that Huntsman previously showed in front of Choi Yeonseung.
Originally, he should be like this.
âThank you once again...â
âOf course, if it was me, I wouldâve cleaned it up before it became a mess. I feel sorry for the people there.â
â...What did you say?â
âAh. Never mind. It isnât that you did something wrong. It is that I couldâve done better. Wait. No. Maybe it is your fault that you arenât as competent as me?â
âMr Huntsman! Arenât you saying too much?!â
âYou are joking too much!â
Despite the rude remarks, the people around them laughed and tried to pass over this matter.
It was obvious that they didnât want to offend Huntsman.
â...These guys!â
Governor Kenny inwardly made an oath.
If, and this was only if...
If he was knocked out of the race by Huntsman, he would use all of his remaining political life to support Choi Yeonseung!
