Chapter 574: Protest (2)
‘Fuck…’
However, it was true that I thought he might be doing a quest like an errand given by a village chief at best.
Who knew that he would be the center of such a dire situation in the mainstream?
It was spectacular to see that he captivated the crowd with a red band around his head.
I didn’t know where he got a wizard.
I didn’t know if it was Democratic Fighter Park Deokgu or Pak Sergei of physical magic, but one thing was certain: a shaggy beard covered his face.
His upper body was covered with bursting muscles that seemed to have been made out of hard work. Even if others could see him from 300m away, he would look like a native who had been working for a long time at the 5th site.
How about Argirmo next to him?
He was also confronted by an army of corrupt authority, yet he seemed unlikely to collapse due to his stern face.
‘Why is Kim Ye-ri there too? I mean, fuck. Why are all of them having a get-together over there? Did they meet up over there at a certain point in time?’
There was the master of the dance of fascination, Yetni Kova.
I thought she would be at the joint training center with Cho Hyejin and Kim Hyunsung, but it turned out she was right there.
‘You just have to let them not gather. They’re too excited.’
However, they were already teaming up. It wasn’t clear yet, but I began to understand why what had taken the form of sabotage suddenly turned into a protest like that.
The 5th site that had swelled up as if it were going to burst met a central point where they could unite, so they stood up with it.
How embarrassed that Mikhail bastard must’ve been. He tried to figure it out somehow in order to survive, but since things had become absurd, I wondered if he was trembling with anxiety by then.
Of course, he wasn’t the only one with unpleasant feelings about the situation.
‘Sigh, fuck…’
The scenario where we’d be able to deal with the situation quietly had been ruined. I thought nodding at it was enough, but naturally, Lee Jihye’s face, who had worked so hard for the ideal outcome, was demoralized.
Of course, not all of what she did would be useless, but if we were going to solve it in that way, she didn’t have to gather and prosecution, trial, and his summoning…
‘I guess it didn’t matter.’
Her cheeks trembled as if she remembered the hard work she went through. The past few days for Lee Jihye, who ran around to solve the issue as quietly as possible, were brought to naught.
I never felt that Lee Jihye was scary, but the present Lee Jihye made me feel fear a little.
As if the messenger, who had come to deliver the news, felt that the atmosphere had become heavy, he quietly left the office.
“Fuck!! Fuck!!!”
Crash!
With that sound, Lee Jihye threw the glass cup against the floor.
Whether she thought she showed me what she shouldn’t, she glanced at me for a moment, but I had already witnessed it all. She was the one who usually cared about her reputation. It was unexpected to see her like that.
“It slipped out of my hand.”
“Oh, yeah.”
‘She has a hidden temper.’
I forgot about it, but it’s not like the masked woman from the first round would go anywhere.
She probably would’ve smashed everything in the room if she was alone.
“Ahem…”
“I’m telling you, it really slipped. Try not to think about it. You better forget what you just saw, Oppa.”
“Oh, okay…”
“I’ll go to the bathroom for a minute. Keep watching the video.”
“Sure.”
In an attempt to hide that she was older than me, Lee Jihye kept calling me Oppa. She must’ve been flustered for the small tantrum she displayed.
There was no way to confirm whether she went to the bathroom to cool down her head or she went there to vent out her anger, but I fixed my gaze on the video. I had to focus.
The Workers and field guards were in conflict.
Those who shouted loud chants stared forward with determined faces that they would never back down.
-We are not slaves!
-We are not slaves!
-We have to ask for fair rights! Awaken Mikhail! Awaken!
-Awaken! Awaken!
-Wages and welfare subsidies are leaking elsewhere. Why can’t we be granted the basic welfare they get in other areas? Field managers need to be transparent about how the funds have been spent right now!
-Make it public! Make it public!
-Mikhail needs to be punished!
-Punish him! Punish him!
-You have to listen to the voices of the workers right now!
-Awaken! Awaken!
-We are not slaves!
-We are not slaves!
‘Fuck, I think this is more serious than I thought…’
The atmosphere had already heated up. The level of solidarity was unbelievable, considering that it was supposedly just the early days of the protests.
Angered workers kept yelling, and, of course, the work was stopped. The field guards yelling at them to quickly return to their position were also extremely flustered.
However, there was no way for the workers who had been sabotaged to retreat silently. Since it took a long time for them to stand there, the protesters wouldn’t back down either.
-Please disperse the illegal protest right now and return to your designated locations.
-We won’t go back!
-I’ll say it again. All the workers in the protest, please stop the illegal protests and return to your designated positions right now. We believe that further protests are against the Continental Protection and Management Committee, and we are allowed to take action to disperse it.
‘What, fuck… bastard, that has nothing to do with me… don’t use the Committee as an excuse, you bastard. ‘
-Quickly disperse it!
-We can’t back off! Our rights are something we have to win for ourselves!
-Disperse it right now! Disperse it!
-The field manager must show up immediately and make the details public transparently!
-The protest you are doing is an unreported illegal protest. Following the Continental Protection Act, we will forcibly disperse illegal protests from now on. I warn you again. The gathering that is taking place at present will be judged as an illegal protest and will be dispersed by force.
-You are blocking the reports in the first place, so how can this be an illegal protest? Don’t be ridiculous and call the person in charge quickly!
-Gather up! Gather up!!!
-What are the wizards doing?! Start quickly!
-Don’t back down! Let’s show our will!
Who would have thought that I would see such a scene again?
The water cannons fired by the wizards hitting the protesters head-on were scenes I had seen a lot somewhere. The protesters were caught by the water cannons instantly, and the guards blocked them with large wagons.
The protesters had begun to shake a large wagon even while being hit by the water cannon, and the guards with shields looked ahead as if thinking that it was a mess.
-Shoot! Shoot!
I came and went through numerous siege battles, but the siege that was taking place in that field right at that moment was no joke.
No, rather, it was more dramatic. If I were only in a position to see it, I would have watched it as if it weren’t related to me, but it was impossible to see the current situation that way.
‘What should I do if they suppress it in that way?’
Considering the cause was out there in the first place, that kind of suppression wasn’t ideal.
It went without saying that it would turn into hell as soon as a casualty occurred.
It was quite interesting to see them dispersing the protesters using the Continental Conservation Management Committee or the Continental Conservation Law as an excuse.
It was starting to look that the stupid situation happened because of me.
Of course, the protesters were targeting Mikhail, but it was undeniable that I could indirectly suffer damage. In addition to this, that stupid pig couldn’t have caused the protest with that in mind.
It was more likely that since he saw a problem, he thought of helping me by solving it himself.
‘This is not the time to be staying still.’
If that kind of behavior were broadcast, the public opinion of Benignore Net would decline.
It would be natural for the workers around them to be affected as well.
“What are you going to do?” Lee Jihye, who came back just in time, asked this.
“I have no choice. I need to fix this. Well, what can I do? I don’t think such a situation is that bad, though… you must be a bit annoyed, though.”
“No. Not really… Well, everything I prepared had been wasted, but it isn’t completely ruined. It’s something you can use right away, and it doesn’t matter in the first place. I’m not the kind of person who gets mad at things like this.”
‘You were pretty mad earlier.’
“This is actually pretty good. I can take this opportunity and focus more on you… I can show them that you went ahead and took care of it. It’s a shame that they stopped the work, but I think it’s a step back required to take two steps forward. As soon as we take care of the case, we’ll put those bastards in jail, and after paying compensation to the workers, we can put in a more suitable manager. It’ll be a warning to other fields… and since you can show off your pretty face, the approval rating will rise. It will go well. Yes, I think it’ll go well.”
‘I think she’s still angry…’
“Get ready to head straight out. The sooner the feedback, the better.”
“Yes, well… Let’s do that. Give me a minute to dress up.”
“Okay. For now, I’ll tell them to stop the current protest behavior. I don’t know if they will understand me, but… maybe the Mikhail division has smelled that the chairman will be on this soon, and he must be thinking if he should wait and see it through or not. There are less than a few hours left in the countdown, so I hope he doesn’t run away.”
“If he does, where would he go?”
“I will also prepare the troops just in case that happens.”
“Good to know. Have you checked the public opinion?”
“There’s no way that it’s beneficial to us. A lot is still discussing Mikhail, but I guess we have to take some of the responsibility for this. Still, I think it’ll be fine because there are a lot of people who defend us. Let’s go there quickly. I asked for reinforcements in the 4th and 5th sites… If you go with a griffon, you’ll be able to arrive faster.”
The distance was actually quite long, but it’s a short distance away if I rode a griffon.
The problem was that not all of the reinforcements would be able to ride a griffon, but there wasn’t much of a safety problem as all of my main bodyguards could go.
Lee Jihye, who was heated up, also got on the griffon, and not long after we left, we arrived at the messy 5th site.
“Go deal with the protesters. Please calm them down as much as possible and do your best in conversing with them.”
“I’ll do that. Are you going to organize the internal aspect?”
“I have to.”
The field guards watched the griffons lowering from the sky for a moment, and as soon as they checked the flag, they guided them to the landing site.
The workers who had been protesting for a long time also began cheering.
They felt that the current situation would finally be cleared up.
“Whooaaaaa!!!”
“The Chairman is here!”
“The Chairman came to hear us!”
It was a bit cringy, but…
Of course, this was only a natural reaction.
