Ep.141 Silence in the Storm
Memories.
Memories are like sticky sugar water, so when you close your eyes and stay still, they come back to your mind one by one.
And it’s the same for everyone.
Even a hero with strong power is no exception.
‘No, you can do it.’
‘You owe me one this time, right?’
‘…My hero is going through this, and of course, I have to come.’
“….”
Sometimes old memories reappear in her dreams, just like today.
“…It’s raining.”
Shin Haru stood up and leaned on the bed, thinking about past memories that showed in her dream. She suddenly looked at the window next to her and muttered so unknowingly.
The sky is tinged with a dull gray color, and the rain is falling.
The weather looked like something was about to happen.
“…Should I go to the office?”
Shin Haru, who continued to ponder her memories on the bed, stood up after shaking off her thoughts.
The weather makes her feel bad, but it’s just a feeling.
She arrived at the association with that thought and sat in her office.
Hours later, sirens began ringing, declaring an emergency at the association.
Her sinister intuition was not wrong, either.
***
The largest space inside the Korean Association building, the Emergency Response Headquarters.
It’s no exaggeration to say that the place is currently in chaos.
“Urazil! How is this situation?”
This is the control center, with numerous monitors and a massive screen in a large space.
The president of the association rushed in and shouted.
Then the employee, who was looking at the monitor with a nervous look, said urgently without leaving his eyes off the screen.
“….Not good, sir! Currently, numerous marine monsters are conducting air raids on the coast near large cities in each country, and the amount is not negligible!”
“What about Korea?”
“…They might come soon, sir!”
“Hey, why are all these incidents happening during my term of office?”
As the president grumbled as if he was falsely accused, the office door opened and Stardus rushed in.
“Sir, I’m here after hearing the news. What is going on?”
The president explained to her, who asked with a stern look, wiping the sweat off his forehead.
“…A place called Latis, which I believed to be a North American villain group, declared war everywhere in the world. They argue that the sea is superior to the land, so they want to widen it. And now they’re attacking the coasts of major countries at the same time. And maybe we’ll also be attacked soon! Those crazy psychopaths!”
The president shuddered and shouted angrily. Soon after, another agent pointed to the monitor and began explaining to Stardus on his behalf, coughing as if he heard something while talking.
“The head of them is Atlas, who probably has the ability to transform marine life into monsters. Monsters are invading America and the coasts of Europe, and the numbers are enormous.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the video was twisted on a huge screen on the wall.
The sight of giant squid and strange creatures attacking the coastal city.
Stardus’ face turned more serious looking at it.
There are too many …
“First, according to the North American and European Associations, which are under attack, the invasion is coming from many sides, and the damage is getting bigger and bigger!”
“They said the more countries currently have contact with the sea, the bigger the scale of the invasion!”
And the urgent voice of the association’s agents from all over the control center.
Hearing the news, the president of the association began to put orders, lamenting his fate, grabbing the short hair.
“Haa… Urazil. Call up the heroes below B-class right now, and contact Icicle to defend Busan. Shadow Walker can’t help right now, you need to know where the attack is, so stand by for a while, Stardus.”
“…Yes, sir.”
Stardus responded briefly and then looked at the ㅠboard again.
A giant sky-blue world map floating on a big screen.
And there were red dots everywhere.
Flashing red spots, mainly on the coasts of America and Europe, while Asia is clean. Maybe they’re on the side that’s being invaded.
And those red dots, increasingly on the right, started to form one by one.
“It is reported that the attack has also started on the Indian side!”
And at the same time as the agent’s urgent words rang out, red spots began appearing on the world’s map on several coasts of India.
At the same time, the urgent shout of agents began to ring from all parts of the control center.
“Air strikes have started in the Philippines and Vietnam!”
The pressing scream came from the sidelines as soon as he finished.
“We received a report saying the attack has finally begun on the Chinese side too!! Airstrikes are starting right across from our West Sea!”
“The Japanese Association has also issued an air raid warning!!! Now the island’s major metropolitan hubs are under attack!”
As soon as they finished speaking, numerous red dots began to appear on the world map.
Now there are few countries with no red spots facing the sea.
As such, war clouds began to circulate within the association.
“…Let’s all get ready. Keep your eyes open, and look where the invasion begins!”
There was a breathtaking silence at the end of the president’s words.
Everyone began to wait eagerly for the upcoming air strike somewhere in the country.
After a minute of nervousness.
Three minutes have passed.
Ten minutes have passed.
“… Damn it, why isn’t it coming? Is it a time difference attack?”
The president mumbled nervously, stamping his feet.
Agents, including Stardus, are also more nervous while waiting.
After 30 minutes.
About an hour later.
“….Something’s off.”
The inside of the association, which was filled with tension until a while ago, was now filled with wonder.
“How is the situation now?”
“They said that air strikes are continuing in major developed countries. The local heroes are rushing to stop it. In particular, Japan is suffering more damage because the slope is the sea.”
“…But Japan right next to us is getting attacked from all sides. Why are they still not coming at us?”
As the president grumbled like that, Stardus felt strange inside.
…All the other countries are under attack, does it make sense for our country alone to be late for air raids?
But nothing was certain yet, so everyone didn’t let go of their tension.
Ten hours have passed.
“Sir, the sun is setting.”
“Sir, Latis is now retreating around the world. Perhaps the terrorism is over.
“…Shall we just go home?”
And South Korea was never attacked.
***
[(Column) End of Latis’ world invasion… Why was Korea the only country not attacked?]
The whole world was badly damaged.
Countless coastal countries have been attacked by global terrorist attacks by the Villain group Latis.
Black smoke rose everywhere, and countless coastal cities collapsed.
Japan, the country right next to it, is currently reported to have suffered astronomical damage.
Many countries, including the United States and Europe, were invaded. They prevented but suffered great losses in the process.
But one strange thing is our country has not been attacked.
No unidentified water monster has been spotted in South Korea, with all countries suffering from gunfire and ruins.
What is the reason?
I don’t know why, but we can consider it luck.

[Wait, Mr. reporter… I read to see the reasons, so you can’t say that you don’t know.]
[I was surprised because I thought there was another attack after turning on the news, but I’m shocked because nothing happened]
[The world is in chaos, but why is Korea the only country in peace? So unexpected.]
[What kind of luck is this? Hahahaha]
[…? What happened while I was at work?]
The invasion is over.
The half-day terrorist attacks on the entire planet ended as suddenly as they did, with all the marine monsters returning to the sea in unison.
After they left, only the destroyed city remained. At the time when all associations around the world were struggling to recover from the war,
The Korean Hero Association was at leisure.
“…I don’t know what it is, but it’s a stroke of luck! Hahaha, do kids say ‘Sike’ on occasions like this these days? Hahahaha!”
The president is excited to have less work to do, and the staff is truly relieved that terrorism has not happened.
And Stardus was standing behind.
She breathed a sigh of relief, but she was wondering somehow.
…Why on earth is Korea the only country not attacked?
“Why…”
As she was troubled,
Suddenly, from one side of the association, the loud voice of the staff rang out.
“Sir! Egotistic has posted a notice!”
“…Egostic? Why are you talking about him? And what notice?”
The president wondered.
Stardus was already accessing the Egostream homepage faster than anyone else.
And a piece of writing on the notice board was posted.
