Chapter 105: True Peace Does Not Exist in Any Corner of the World (Part 1)

The camera returns.

The girl's loud roar continues.

"Why does that thing still exist until now? It should have been destroyed back then!"

Although it wasn't specified what that thing referred to, it was unnecessary since both sides knew what it was.

In response, the man shrugged helplessly.

"Well, that's true. Even though the news at that time wasn't published due to the government's reasons, one could find out by conducting on-site investigations that the place had turned into ruins and those things naturally no longer existed."

"So...?"

If that was the case, why did they suddenly resurface after such a long time? The girl continued to question, but all she got was,

"But surprisingly, there seemed to be more than one at that time."

Such an answer.

"More than one...?"

How could that be? If that was the case, why did it take so long for them to appear again?

Although the girl didn't say it out loud, the man seemed to understand what she meant.

"Well, I think I know what you're thinking, my senior. Actually, we were also surprised. Half a year ago, we were suddenly informed about the location of this device and the whole plan, and until now, we still don't know who the other party is. After all, it's hard to believe information given by a stranger, but soon we found out that the other party was not just an ordinary stranger. I'm not referring to knowing the other party's identity, to be honest, we have no clue about the other party's identity. I say this because through a simple conversation, it's apparent that the other party is no ordinary stranger. So we decided to trust them, and that's how the new PC plan came about."

"...The new PC plan?"

An unexpected development caught the girl's attention once again.

"Yes, after knowing the original plan, we thought there could be better ways to utilize it because... it's more effective to control those few individuals instead of the general public."

"Those few individuals?"

"You also know, my senior. This country is controlled by The National Council. Those few individuals stand at the peak of this country, and everything in this country operates according to their will. But that makes things simpler."

By now, the girl had already guessed it.

"Are you saying those few individuals are..."

"Exactly, the people from The National Council. Once those few individuals are controlled, it's equivalent to controlling this country. And those people are just ordinary individuals, easy to manipulate. Once this plan succeeds, there will be no more conflicts in this country. It's true unification."

"What a joke. That's not unification at all."

Angry roars came from the girl.

The man admitted candidly.

"Perhaps my senior is right, but I believe it's still better than the current infighting among factions."

"What? You know it, and yet..."

"My senior should also know that when multiple people control a country, problems like this arise, with everyone scheming against each other. This not only causes suffering for ordinary citizens, but it also makes the country vulnerable to invasion by other countries. So, this situation should end as soon as possible."

"Then, one of those few individuals must be pulling the strings."

"Oh... Senior, you have really good insight, but it's useless. I won't tell you who it is, so even if you try to trick me, it won't work."

"But you should also know that this person's ambition is just pure greed. Even if they succeed, it doesn't guarantee peace for this country."

To this, Inhuman responded calmly.

"Of course, I know that no matter who holds power, they cannot ensure everlasting peace because humans are inherently desirous, even those in power."

"Since you know that, then why..."

"But even so, I still believe that it would be better than the current situation. A completely peaceful country doesn't exist; no matter what, it's the people who suffer. So since we can't eliminate the suffering entirely, the only solution is to minimize it as much as possible."

"You're just deluding yourself. Once those kinds of people take control of the country, terrible things are bound to happen."

Faced with the girl's assertion, Inhuman calmly questioned.

"So, do you think, Senior, that the current state of this country is normal? Is it peaceful?"
