I found Lee Yoo-jin, the chairman of Cheonsan Group, who is the lifeline of Songdo.

This time, since he was at the company, I thought I’d go visit him in person and settle things face to face.

"No, no. That’s really impossible. Please understand our situation. Lord Dahaka. Even Ha Jung-seok came out for an inspection because of the weapon supply this time."

That’s a natural reaction. Asking for money for urban reconstruction is truly a thief’s mindset.

But here’s the thing. Baekhwa is a villain, right?

I decided to apply some silent pressure.

"Is it really impossible?"

"First of all, it’s now impossible to cross the barrier again. There’s no proper justification for laying down social infrastructure either. If we get caught, Cheonsan Group is in real danger."

"I see."

Well, can we really lay down infrastructure in a villain’s land? It could even end up being the creation of an entirely new city.

Building a city like that means giving it to a villain.

The Korean government or the association would never let that slide, even if it’s Cheonsan Group.@@novelbin@@

"More than anything, the biggest issue is that the quarantine area, if completed, could actually provide some semblance of territory that could be used for the country. It will mostly be in ruins, and it’s tough to allocate funds right now."

"Why’s that?"

"Because of those fools at Nolbu Space Industries, they’ve entered the space race."

"That Nolbu?"

Nolbu Space Industries. It’s a project that Nolbu, who runs parallel with Cheonsan Group in Korea, has been investing a lot of money into.

It’s literally a space-related business.

In the original, there wasn’t anything like that about Nolbu. This detail was suddenly added.

[Master, Cheonsan now operates much better than the original Cheonsan. Therefore, Nolbu has started various businesses to counterbalance Cheonsan.]

Ah, I see.

Has Korea secured the lacking space technology thanks to the development of magic engineering? Did Korea even have any technology before?

"Yes, take a look at this."

Lee Yoo-jin began typing on his laptop, then showed me a news video.

The video showed Nolbu, with his greedy face, gathering reporters and giving a confident speech.

["Dear citizens, the spaceship carrying the golems and equipment for terraforming Mars is ready. I, Inolbu, will definitely go to Mars! Now, let’s all go together! To the vast universe!"]

* "Then, think of it as replacing Yoo Jin-seok. My voice is pretty similar, right?"

* "Honestly, it's suspicious, isn’t it? Yoo Jin-seok. Can you really imagine a future with him? Or am I wrong?"

* "Yoo Jin-seok already has plenty of people around him. One more person wouldn’t make a difference, right? You’ve been trying so hard to get his attention. It's strange that he hasn’t noticed. I really need you. There aren’t many people who can help someone like me."

* "You saw that last time, right? Think carefully. I really need you."

* "I trusted you and told you. If you don’t like it, you can expose everything at any time. I told you knowing that would happen."

* "Actually, you're the first in my heart."

* "What do you mean?"

* "I've been eyeing you since a few years ago. I fell for you the moment I saw you when you were at the academy."

* "You know, you made me a lesbian, right? I tried to give way to my brother until now. But I’ve decided that I can’t do that anymore."
