The Hero Became Obsessed With The Villain [part 1 Complete]

Chapter 162 Helping and Keeping in Touch

Oh, of course, we should use our strength. It's a request from the chairman herself, how could we refuse?"

"Thank you."

It was a fancy Korean restaurant.

Deep inside, a middle-aged man in a suit and a woman with long sky-blue hair were engrossed in a lively conversation.

"All of this is for the sake of the country, isn't it, Chairman Lee? Hahaha!"

The woman smiled quietly at the man's flattery.

As the meeting drew close, she turned to him and said, "The opposition hasn't had any fun lately, have they?"

"Oh... we just have to do better."

"I hope this will go well. Especially if someone as capable as Director Gam can contribute to the process."

The face of Director Gam, who was known to have a deep understanding of politics, lit up with joy, and she thanked them profusely.

Soon, Director Gam chuckled and disappeared.

In the tinted black limousine, Chairman Lee sat in the back seat with her eyes closed, lost in thought.

Yuseong Enterprise, and Chairman Lee herself. She had already achieved an unprecedented level of power in South Korea.

Even if it was said that the country's economy was already in her grasp, it was not an exaggeration. With overwhelming control over the business world, she had gradually begun to dominate politics and had already gained half the power of Yeouido.

In this situation, the government and lawmakers were also keeping an eye on Yoo Sung and Chairman Lee.

With a bit of carrot and stick, they were able to prevent Yuseong from doing anything that would raise eyebrows in the political world.

Moreover, today's meeting was with the ruling party, where Chairman Lee, who had already gained control over the opposition, was expected to keep the opposition in check.

"Sigh..."

It was not an easy task for her to meet and talk with political figures amid her busy schedule, but she managed to finish it.

It was a request from Egostic Da-in himself, after all.

"..."

PMC.

The project Egostic Da-in presented to her was proving to be more problematic than she had thought.

Firstly, the fact that the company privately hired skilled individuals using money could be misinterpreted as the company forming an armed group, leading to various concerns.

While this was not uncommon in other countries where skilled individuals had become a battleground, it had never happened in Korea.

Therefore, Chairman Lee had to approach the project with great caution from the beginning.

Actually, the bigger problem was the association rather than the government or the media, but that could be dealt with through the association president and her strong connections. After all, wasn't she also a hero? She would never withdraw from the association and instead promised various supports, claiming that it was all for the betterment of humanity.

Lost in thought, Lee Seola recalled a conversation she had with Da-in some time ago.

...

"...We'll gather people with abilities and create a private military company. A so-called PMC."

"Yes?"

That day, at the top of Yuseong Corporation.

In the place that had now become the official meeting place for her and Da-in, he explained his plan to her in a serious tone. He didn't aim for Class A abilities but planned to employ many B-class or lower abilities to create a security company. Of course, it was just for show. The real plan was to train and prepare them for actual combat.
