Guide Me If You Dare novel Chapter 226

Chapter 226: BIRTH OF THE TYRANT

KI GAYOON hated press conferences, and he hated answering to the reporters more.

That was why he let President Kwak Hakjae and Professor J of the Awakened World Organization announce the arrest of President Cheol Kang, along with the betrayal of Ryu Sungbin, Matthew, and Jin Sooin.

While the two were explaining to the reporters, Gayoon just sat in the back while subtly checking his Status Window. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom

He was already done with his job anyway.

Before the press conference began, he reached out to someone who was close to Noh Yuno.

If they can’t tell me where Noh Yuno is, I’ll just work them to the bone.

"We will release a detailed report about the experiments that the National Guide Bureau, led by Chief Kim Munhee-nim and Guide Bambi-nim, performed on our top Espers," President Kwak Hakjae said without blinking despite the continuous flashes of cameras. "The horrible project was supported by President Cheol Kang, hence his arrest."

The reporters then asked about the authenticity of the video evidence that the Esper Association played earlier.

"As the representative of the Awakened World Organization, we’ve come here to validate the authenticity of the evidence that President Kwak Hakjae sent to us," Professor J, lying with a straight face. "The Awakened World Organization finds President Cheol Kang, Guide Bambi, Esper Ryu Sungbin, Esper Matthew, and Esper Jin Sooin guilty for conducting inhuman experiments on Espers without consent."

With 17 and Hayoung Cheon standing behind Professor J, the professor’s words weighed heavier than they were intended to.

In fact, the AWO representatives looked really intimidating at the moment.

Hence, it was understandable that the reporters looked hesitant to ask more questions.

This is the power of the world’s strongest organization.

"Assuming that everything we have heard and seen so far is true, is declaring the Esper Law really necessary?"

Ah, that question is for me.

Hence, Gayoon stood up and took the stage— standing on the podium, speaking on the mic with his usual indifference. "Yes, implementing the Esper Law is necessary to stop our country from crumbling. Now that the government and the National Guide Bureau have been proven to betray us, our country has just become vulnerable against outside attacks."

The flashes of the cameras in front suddenly stopped blinding them as the reporters and the cameramen froze in shock. It was as if those people just realized the risk of having their weakness exposed to the world.

Invasion.

Many Western countries had fallen that way.

There are several countries in Europe that suddenly remembered their love for colonizing other nations when the apocalypse began. Those countries have already invaded a few third-world countries.

Gayoon would be damned if he let those colonizers invade South Korea.

And that was exactly why he declared the Esper Law.

I don’t have the time to convince the Civilians to trust me, so I need to control them first to avoid dumb people from instigating a rebellion.

"Let this serve as a warning to anyone who is stupid enough to think that South Korea is about to fall at any moment: no, that won’t happen," Gayoon said firmly. "As long as I am here, South Korea won’t fall. You’re free to try— if you have a death wish, that is."

He may not have been active in the Esper scene for the past few years since he focused on expanding his business.

But his reputation didn’t go anywhere.

This much should be enough to make those bastards think twice about attacking South Korea.

To be honest, Gayoon didn’t have time to protect his country.

But if some stupid bastards try their luck, I have people who will fight in my stead.

They just go there when their Espers awaken.

I did that.

Those bastards need to officially register later, but that can wait.
