Ep.139 The Changing Situation

[Breaking news. Brazil is coming to an end! All senior government officials, including the president and vice president, are now believed to have died, and Brazilian associations and heroes have also been neutralized, and all of the capital and metropolitan cities have been destroyed.]

[Additional news. It was reported that there was no sign of a massive fire going on in the Amazonia forest on the Brazilian side. All of South America’s neighbors have declared a state of emergency, and those who survived are said to be fleeing as refugees.]

A nation was destroyed by people with superpowers.

This is starting to have a huge impact on the international community.

[Tension is rampant in the international community, with governments all declaring a state of emergency. South Korea also declared a state of emergency…]

[United Nations and the International Hero Association General Committee issued a joint statement calling the Brazilian incident “shocking and horrific anti-humanitarian work” and saying they would “take every step to resolve the situation.” They added that they would work with the hero associations to find the truth and execute the villains.]

[The U.S. also commented on the incident as a horrible disaster, apologizing for not being able to help the international community and announcing that they would immediately send their association’s heroes to help resolve the situation. Currently, tens of thousands of refugees are still being evacuated in Brazil, and the Amazon side is still burning fiercely.]

[The results of the first investigation of the International Hero Association and the United States have been released. According to a report released by UHN, the fall of Brazil was caused by S-class villains from other countries, and it seems that the Brazilian government planned the work out despite their refusal to accept their threats.]

[They were evaluated as having the best individual abilities among S-class villains. Brazil was a small country with only one A-class hero and fewer high-skilled heroes compared to the population.]

[The U.S. has confirmed that they will help by sending two S-class heroes and five A-class heroes to find criminals and solve cases. This is considered a significant expenditure, which is regarded as unusual for an American association that is highly reluctant to let its heroes leave the country. This means that North American people are taking this very seriously…]

[The local media reported that they succeeded in killing three of the four enemies who destroyed Brazil early this morning. One is said to be on the run.]

[The fire on Amazon is finally off! Local media reported that U.S. S-class hero Watermel put it out.]

[Citizens around the world started the #pray4brazil movement. With the hashtag, the supporting messages for Brazil, and the news that they donated relief supplies… In Korea, Yuseong Enterprise is known to have participated in this.]

[27 of the national branches of the Hero Association around the world gathered to issue a statement condemning the American Hero Association. The main point of the statement was, “The United States of America had an overwhelming history of portrait power around the world, but it ended up destroying Brazil because it did not even think of helping Brazil under the line.” The United States should take responsibility for this.”]

[The American Association strongly opposes the emergence of any kind of responsibility theory that the U.S. defensive attitude, which was sensitive to the leakage of its heroes, missed an opportunity to prevent Brazil’s collapse and assisted the collapse]

***

It was a chaotic era.

To the extent that what happened on the other side of the globe greatly impacts us, a small country in the East.

[The stock market is plummeting every day. The international community is frozen, and it is predicted that it will be difficult for all. Our government is doing the best by immediately cutting interest rates and signing currency swap agreements with each country.]

[The Korean Hero Association starts a 24-hour emergency meeting. The meeting, which included the association’s president, three A-class heroes, and all B-class heroes, was held after frequent terrorist attacks caused by the recent amplification of anxiety…]

[A bill to regulate portrait abilities is emerging in South America. Unlike before, it is to investigate all citizens and force them to determine who has a superpower. If they refuse to comply, extreme imprisonment claims are being made.]

“How can the end of a country come that fast…?”

Choi Se-hee muttered as if she was bewildered while watching the news.

These days, I only see news, breaking news, and so on the moment I turn on the TV. However, if you ask if there’s any difference on the Internet, then no, it’s the same. Brazil, no territorial restoration, etc.

This is the first time in the international community that villains have overthrown a country like this.

In other words, it’s normal that the Internet is going crazy.

Korea, which is far from Brazil, is also talking about this all day long, but what about other South American countries or the United States that are attached to it right now? Everything is just flipped over.

“Da-in, I don’t know what’s what because there is so much data right now, but what exactly happened?”

Seo-eun, looking at the laptop, asked me if she was confused.

“Well, in a nutshell. The mighty villains destroyed the government, the heroes, burned the forest, destroyed the city, and so on.”

“Gosh… Does that make sense? Just a bunch of villains?”

“…I don’t know.”

Actually, I don’t know the details.

In the original work, while Stardus was wandering in the middle, this happened in the world – it was briefly mentioned and moved on.

Anyway, the certain thing is that South Korea and the international community are getting fed up with this incident.

From now on, the power balance is starting to break, and there are increasingly ignorant, strong villains.

Well, the Brazilian territory has been smashed, and the people are alive, so they’re going to build a government again, and somehow they’ll roll along.

Anyway, the important thing is,

Now, starting with this incident, it means that terrorism on an international scale will occur more and more frequently.

Until now, domestic heroes only had to deal with their villains, but now they have to prevent villains from other countries from invading. In a way, it can be seen as a problem of globalization.

“So, from now on, terrorism on an international scale will gradually increase.”

We have to stop it.

I swallowed the last word.

I’m still a little hesitant to say so far. I’ve never told anyone about my plan before, and I’m afraid I’ll feel responsible for nothing.

Honestly, it’s kind of funny that the Villain Union is doing this. Discipline can be slackened. Actually, it’s already loose, but anyway.

Still, when I saw everyone looking at the TV with worried eyes, I felt that I had to block it to some extent.

…Honestly, it’s not the same as the original one. If it goes like this, Korea will also be destined to end like Brazil.

In other words, Egostream’s role will grow even more as we will join hands with more international villains.

The world will become chaotic, and power and information are the keys in the end.

Saying how many strong powers a country has and the international situation can change considerably depending on the interests of other villains.

It was a simultaneous global maritime attack by an underwater terrorist organization called Latis.

For your information, the reason why they’re called underwater terrorist organizations is that the real organization’s headquarters are built somewhere in the deep sea.

Haa, I’ll have to prepare slowly for this.

I began to agonize so slowly.

How should I approach…

And after thinking about that.

Time flew by, literally.

***

[A provisional Brazilian government has been established. The provisional government, whose primary goal is restoring the country, has expressed its ambition to run it from scratch. People around the world are cheering them on]

“Phew… I think the situation is finally settled.”

The president of the association mumbled, wiping the sweat off his forehead.

Brazil’s wave of weeks.

Finally, the last villain that destroyed Brazil was executed at the hands of the United States, and the Brazilian government was newly established.

The situation has entered a calm phase to some extent.

“I’m glad. I can finally sleep now. But Icicle… What are you doing?”

“Please hold a second. I must buy at least one more before the stock price crash ends.”

“…You live a very busy life, too.”

Lee Seola, the head of a giant company, has contributed by connecting other countries and companies with governments, so Shadow Walker decided to just nod and understand whatever she did.

Ignoring Lee Seola, who was blinded by the bargain sale of overseas companies next to him, Shadow Walker talked to Stardus.

“Stardus, why don’t you get some sleep? You haven’t slept much lately.”

“Huh? Oh… I should.”

Shin Haru, who was sitting with tired eyes, nodded quietly.

The Brazilian incident caused fear throughout the country, and security became quite incomplete, forcing numerous heroes, including Stardus, to stay up all night.

But as the situation has now officially calmed down to some extent, prices and security are slowly stabilizing. It’s certain that this emergency standby is now in the process of being discharged.

The president, who is happy to be back in his daily life, and Lee Seola, smiling while muttering that she is going to buy everything, have already closed their eyes and started sleeping peacefully on their chairs.

In the middle of a conference room so relaxed, Stardus. She was the only one who felt uneasy.

…Something, something bigger is coming.

I don’t know what it is, but something that will directly affect us.
