Chapter 66 (1/2)
Ki off an avalanche of reporters, several Knights and even an aht to his bed And he finally got to enjoy a deep and restful sleep in a long, long while It was because the Orc’s desire for battle had been fully satisfied by the deadly encounter with the Basilisk
And so, the sun rose on yet another ot up and when he switched on the TV out of habit…
He got to experience the sy for a e of the press conference held by the Chief of the Special Investigation Division of Police
The so-called Special Investigation Division of the National Police
The special bureau within the Police Force that specifically dealt with the crie of Mana Utilisation
Noation Division forovern with ‘special’ circumstances, it was treated as a separate entity most of the time
On top of this, the treatment its ehts Orders, so there had been hts were scouted away to the Division instead
But, just as the status within the society and the prestige indicated, pride the Special Investigation Division possessed as an organization was incredibly high (TL: Fro it to ”SID”)
Sooistic’ or ‘conceited’ but in truth, ever since the Division’s inception, it had faced tens of thousands of cases yet the number of tiit, so their pride was indeed fully justified
”… What the heck is wrong with her?!”
That hy, back then, Sae-Jin wrote the words of ‘I’ll accept the job after you apologise’ half out of ht about it, was hiy from the Chief of the SID Now that was prettytheir collective heads at hi had never happened, not even once in the history before
– The Mercenary Lycan had been working hard all by hi the occurrence of these incidents However, we at SID ended up co his efforts terrible acts of hate cri lips of Yu Baek-Song was feeble and rather pitiful
Before he knew it, Sae-Jin had taken a proper seat before raising the voluation is that, these Monster-related incidents are definitely criation, a Vaoverno has become one of the prime suspects…
While he dazedly stared at the cutely bobbingloudly next
He couldn’t tear his eyes off the TV, but still ed to answer the call
”hello?”
– ”Oppa, it’s Sae-Jung Are you unhurt?”
The call was froely, her voice was so small, it was lower than even a norood… I…”
She couldn’t finish what she wanted to say Out of the blue, he could hear the loud, angry shouts of ”You little rascal!! Are you calling hiot cut off there
”…What was that all about?”
And as Sae-Jin was tilting his head in confusion…
– I, Yu Baek-Song, as the Chief of SID, is y to Lycan the Mercenary, and also wish to earn his cooperation as well
He could hear the declaration of apology froer
Two days later
He had never seen chaos quite like this one
The anxiety regarding the Monster field that had suddenly expanded twice its original size had subsided incredibly quickly and instead, the news regarding the Lycan had the country in total upheaval
As expected, devastating ripples of ly had never apologised to anyone ever, had far-reaching consequences
So, the public and the media kept their eyes and ears very wide open for the response froendary Mercenary would accept the apology from the SID that tried to have hi for them, or just like until now, stay silent over the o crazy over here…’
But in reality, the person central to this chaos, Ki at thehad written on the communication note book
They said that a stone throithout care would kill a frog - now that he had thought about what he had done, he did indeed behave too dahtlessly He didn’t have to think too hard to realise that, for SID, their pride and fa this crime
And he just had to make fun of such people like sohed out and lied back down on the bed
Vampires - or, those damn bloodsuckers
He wasn’t able to ”think” about theer towards thehts still swirled in his head - Why did those bastards murder my mom? Was there a particular reason for that or was it siry bellies? And also… Just who is responsible?
These days, whenever he thought about these questions, his anger boiled so much that sometimes he even woke up in the middle of his sleep
Perhaps, Monsters’ instincts also affected him there The Wolf, for some reason, hated Vampire species, and Orcs as Monsters didn’t kno to cal, so…
He believed that, nowith hier and not weaker
After a long, long deliberation while trying hard to think under the clear , Sae-Jin came to a decision
His fault in this nore Plus, the debt Vaer And most importantly, didn’t these bastards throw a ”dead ball” at the population of the planet Earth first by using these incidents, so would it be okay to let thehts, Sae-Jin wrote down his replies on the notebook
And around ten minutes after henews’ reports

Over four thousand comments appeared in less than three o, after the Lycan had accepted the cohly focused the public’s attention was towards this crime and the Lycan’s decision
”…Whew-oo”
However, Kiazed at the contents of the notebook
[There isn’t much space left in this notebook now We need a new method of communication]
Maybe it was because he had added a sies were all filled up It was quite understandable as how this happened; the SID es which easily filled up each page that were sent by the their calls…
He fell into a thought
There were tays to handle this situation Give theet this over and done with
The former option was simpler and safer The latter option was far more complicated and there was also a lot of risk involved
But still… Sae-Jin chose the latter
Of course, he wasn’t going to reveal his identity No, it was si ‘Kim Sae-Jin’ the public persona forward as the intermediary
Also, the Lycan in the Mercenaries’ records was a completely different person to Kiana grey-coloured life in an orphanage with no dreams and hopes of the future so, there was just no way he’d be suspected of anything at all
