[â¦Do you know what the Labor Standards Act is?]
âYou mean the evil law created to exploit employees at the lowest price?â
[Itâs not?! The Labor Standards Act is a law to prevent workers from being exploited, right?]
SDW X-21.
A gray-haired man with an arm pillow leaning back in the cabin of the vertical take-off plane borrowed from Yekathrice.
When Limon heard Yuna-kyungâs words, he murmured sullenly.
âWell, I think itâs rare that Iâve seen a case where the law isnât abused.â
[Oh, anyway, the Labor Standards Act is a necessary law!]
âAnyway, why are you asking that out of the blue?â
[Why? You want me to abide by the Labor Standards Act as well.]
Yuna-gyeong exclaimed in a fit of fuss.
Then he pointed to the bandage that was wrapped around his body and said.
[Donât you see this bandage? this? Iâm injured now. But does it make sense to drag
her all the way to the United States?
[Thatâs when you didnât know the circumstances!]
Yuna-kyung felt unfair.
In fact, she has been in the hospital since she was seriously injured in a scuffle with the fake Catherine.
Even so, it was enough to attach a dedicated healer to say that he was active.
If he had received normal treatment, he would still be lying in his cage, moaning.
The problem was that he was completely unaware of what was going on while he was in the hospital.
[I heard that the Golden Dragon clan is in danger this time?]
âAt least the stupid princess said that.â
[If Sister White said it, it means that America will become hell!]
ââ¦Arenât you believing the prophecy too blindly?â
[Did I stop blindly believing? There is something Iâve been through so far!]
Yuna-kyung shook her head.
Whether itâs Sirâs prophecy.
Whether itâs Ainshaâs prophecy.
What kind of mess happens when two people make a terrible prophecy.
It was because I could be sure that this time, as much as I had seen and experienced it, it couldnât end well this time.
It was even more so this time in that Charlotte, the strongest of the Seven Dragons, and the Golden Dragon clan were intertwined.
However, Limonâs reaction was flat.
âSince I was alive, I sang that I really wanted to go to America at least once, but then I went, so what if I make a fuss?â
[I said that what I wanted was a trip, not a battlefield hikeâ¦]
âDonât be so disappointed. Once you get used to the battlefield, it becomes quite comfortable.â
[You call that consolation now?]
Yuna-gyeong, who was hot-headed, went on a rampage for a long time after that.
However, no matter how energetic he is, there is a limit unless he is an EK Energizer or a Sword Master.
The result of running amok with a throbbing body.
Yuna-kyung, completely exhausted, ended up sagging on the violin case.
[Ha, yes. King Wangjjang is the team leader anyway, so Iâll do something this time too.] Maybe
he gave up.
Limon crossed his arms as he watched Yuna-gyeong muttering helplessly while entrusting herself to the translucent hand stroking her hair as if to comfort her.
âWell, youâd better not be so relieved. You never know how things will turn out this time.â
[Thatâs a prudent statement, unlike a team leader.]
âItâs probably because the content of the prophecy is the content.â
The Golden Dragon clan is a special clan in the Seven Dragons.
To be honest, even Limon, who had gone through all the hardships in childbirth, couldnât easily guess that even the golden dragon princess, Charlotte, could die.
Especially since Li Qingyu contacted me earlier saying that the Liberation Brigade might have already been subjugated.
One thing you can be sure of.
It was just that it would give me quite a headache.
This continent has always been a headache for Limon even before the Elemental Conflict broke out.
â¦Including the work of raising a disciple
.
Itâs been a while since I recall the memories of beating and teaching the cheeky bastard who was arguing about where the gunman learned how to use a knife.
fed up
After letting out a little bit of a bitter laugh.
Limon suddenly turned his head.
âBlue.â
[do not talk to me. Iâm depressed right now.]
âItâs good to be depressed, but why donât you look at that first?â
[Thatâs it?]
Maybe itâs because Iâm running out of energy.
Lying face down on the violin case, he only slightly raises his head.
It was the ghost of a girl who had escaped from the violin case that lifted Yuna-kyung, who was unable to get up at all.
Shortly after he was picked up by Shera and carried to the window next to Limon.
[â¦!]
Yuna-kyung opened her eyes wide.
It was because a different figure was visible in the scenery outside the window, which had only been blue sky and sea until a while ago.
Itâs nothing but a barrier.
As if dividing the land and the sea.
It was a majestic wall that rose to a height of more than thousands of meters and continued endlessly along the coast.
Rather than being a barrier, it is rather mysterious and reminiscent of a mountain range.
Yuna-kyung muttered in a daze involuntarily.
[The large intestine wallâ¦]
âYes, that is the large intestine wall.â
Itâs like Iâm really lost.
Limon asked mischievously at Yuna-kyung, who could not take her eyes off the window.
âDo you still regret coming to America?â
Yuna-kyung did not immediately respond.
After looking at the barrier with thrilled eyes, he only opened his beak and muttered after a while.
[Itâs good that Iâm alive.]
âNo, youâre dead.â
I inadvertently swallowed the words that almost came out of my mouth.
Limon laughed.
Then, as the SDW X-21 slowly slowed down and was slowly sucked into the hole in the middle of the large intestine wall, he opened his mouth quietly.
âWelcome to Los Angeles.â
* * *
[Wow! manager! Look over there! Thatâs an airport!]
âIs this your first time seeing an airport?â
[This is the first time Iâve seen the Great Wall Airport! Look at the world the city looks as small as an ant. As expected, the second highest airport in the world is something different.]
âEven if it is the second, there are many airports that are similar to the main wall.â
[Anyway, this is my first time!]
Yuna-kyung moved vigorously.
Looking out the window and flapping its wings.
Watching the SDW X-21 being lifted by a large mechanical arm and stored in a container opens its beak.
Riding on an unmanned vacuum cleaner and shooting all over the place.
Far from being exhausted, looking at his energy overflowing, it was to the point of doubting whether it was the person who had been screaming in pain until just a moment ago.
Shera also had to go back and forth constantly to chase Yuna-kyung thanks to him.
So, the girlâs ghost nodded eagerly and agreed with Yuna-kyung.
âAs expected, it was good to bring him.â
Limon murmured inwardly as he looked at the friendly bird and ghost combination.
From helping build Dagdaâs cauldron, to finding turkey birds, to stopping demons, and more.
I was caught because I think I made Yuna-kyung do a lot of unreasonable things these days.
Seeing him like that, I felt sorry for him.
âSeeing that you like it like that, I can roll it a bit more.â
â¦For a moment, I thought that if Yuna-kyung knew about it, I would be terrified.
After confirming that the plane was stored, Limon went into a small room on one side of the airport where one wall was entirely made of glass.
So Limon took the seat.
After Yuna-kyungâs unmanned vacuum cleaner came along.
The room with the door closed automatically moved and light came on the screen in front of it.
[Welcome to the United States of America.]
[I am LAAE-0091, a guide who will assist you with immigration procedures.] [I
will be going through immigration from now on, so please let me know when you are ready.]
[Wow!]
Emoticons appear on the screen. After hearing the sound of the machine along with the text that came to mind naturally, Yuna-kyung was impressed again.
Limon, on the other hand, opened his mouth in a sullen manner.
âWhat preparations, start quickly.â
[Yes, I understand.]
[Then Iâll check.]
[Are you Limon Aspelder?]
âWhy do you ask when you know?â
[â¦matching voiceprint and body dataâ¦]
[matching done. Identity authentication has been completed.]
[Welcome, Mr. Limon Aspelder. Welcome to your visit after 78 years, 5 days and 11 hours.]
[Unfortunately, you are prohibited from entering the country without special permission according to the United States National Security Act.
]
[You donât have to go back. Please revisit after receiving permission, or request permission to enter the country right now and wait in the waiting room until you are contacted.]
âOh yeah?â
Limon laughed.
I didnât even expect that the United States, ruled by the Golden Dragon clan, would readily allow me to enter the country.
Still, there are two reasons why I came to the front.
Even if Hana sneaked in, it would be obvious that she would be found out anyway, and it would only increase the restrictions on her actions.
Because there was something else to believe in.
âThen how about this?â
flutter.
Limon took out a piece of paper from his bosom and held it up.
Then, he waved it toward the screen in front of him and laughed mischievously.
âCan you see?â
[â¦Has confirmed. Itâs a letter of appointment as a special envoy from Yekatrice, the Great Khan of the Russian Khanate.]
âYes, Iâm here as a state envoy.â
How much I had to listen to Yekathriceâs bullshit to get these documents.
Satisfied that the effort was not in vain, Limon twisted his lips.
âThere must have been an agreement between the United States of America and the Russian Khanate that allowed them to freely enter and leave the country in addition to immunity for special envoys. Isnât it?â
[Thatâs right.]
âThen there will be no problem if I go in, right?â
[â¦LAAE-0091 doesnât have the authority to answer that question, so Iâll send it to the person in charge. Please wait a moment.]
Weiying.
In the end, the guideâs choice was to shift responsibility.
But the results were largely the same.
Even the director of the Immigration Office who was yawning.
The head of the administrative bureau who had a leisurely meal at the airport administration office.
I opened my eyes wide when I saw Limon who appeared on the train, and when I heard the circumstances, I ended up entrusting the work to my superior, the âman in chargeâ, with a cold sweat.
It was natural.
From the beginning, the diplomatic privilege between Russia and the United States was created for convenience by the Silver Dragon and Gold Dragon clans.
No one had ever assumed that Limon, the nemesis of the Seven Dragons, would appear with that authority.
No matter what decision you make, you have to take responsibility, but no public servant wanted to shoulder it.
As he was a PAB agent by name, he knew the psychology of such public officials well, so Limon calmly accepted their transfer of responsibility.
ââ¦Hey bro?â
But there is a limit to everything.
over several hours.
Circling dozens of departments.
Meeting so many people in charge.
Seeing that even the chief officer, whom he met at the end of all kinds of rounds and turns, hesitated to give an answer, Limon raised a vein on his forehead.
âYou seem to have rolled enough to roll this much, but why donât you let it pass?â
âThatâs a bit difficult.â
âShall I show you what my real trouble is?â
It seems that there is no intention to end with words.
Watching Limon fidgeting with the sword at his waist with a bloody smile, the head of the LA branch, Captain Byeok, shouted as if screaming.
âIâm not doing this because I want to be like me! A nationwide emergency alert was issued a while ago, so immigration is strictly controlled!â
âIs it an emergency alert?â
âThatâsâ¦â
He pondered for a moment whether it would be okay to tell the fact that it is still confidential.
In the end, the branch manager, who chose to avoid the swordsmanâs bloody eyes rather than responsibility, swallowed dry saliva and opened his mouth.
âThere was a terrorist attack in Korea yesterday.â
âterror? You mean Detroit?â
ââ¦Iâm sure youâve heard rumors that the base of the Liberation Brigade was subjugated, but it wasnât that side of the attack. It was Las Vegas.â
âLas Vegas?â
That moment.
Limon raised his eyebrows.
The moment I heard the words of the branch manager.
Because there was one place that came to mind.
âCertainly the place where the terror took place is not where I guessed, right?â
âProbably right.â
Due to communication problems and information control, he had only heard about it unofficially a while ago.
not a confirmed fact.
After carefully adding
The branch manager carefully revealed the information he knew.
ââ¦Remnants of the Liberation Brigade attacked Fafnirâs headquarters yesterday, causing Las Vegas to turn over and causing significant casualties.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
