Food Supply (2)

President John Carter was in shock.

It was probably because I had been in the Blue House just moments before.

So, suddenly appearing here must have been surprising.

“Oh, welcome.”

John Carter looked visibly flustered.

Former Director Katherine was also there. She also looked quite bewildered.

“Weren’t you just in Korea!?”

“I was.”

“Th-then how?”

I simply shrugged.

After reaching the 8th Circle, the means to kill me had virtually disappeared.

My family?

Even if the Earth were engulfed in war, my family would be safe in another dimension.

Since I could destroy an entire nation if I wanted to, I no longer felt the need to hide magic much.

“I am a magician. That’s how the androids were created too.”

“……!”

They were astonished.

There was no need to leak any more information than this.

The only reason I was telling them this was to explain the sudden teleportation. Moreover, since I had to sweep up the food into the subspace [a region of spacetime with different properties], I had no choice but to talk about the existence of magic anyway.

Creating subspace in the realm of science is impossible.

“You’re… asking us to believe that now.”

Katherine frowned.

She had handled countless pieces of information until now. But she had never noticed the existence of magic.

Of course, that was because the magicians were so good at disguising themselves.

There was no way the CIA could know of their existence when the magicians were determined to hide it.

“Are you really talking about magic?”

John Carter said with his eyes wide open.

I nodded lightly.

“I’ll show you proof. Where is the old wheat stored?”

“Well, of course, in the underground bunker…”

“Whereabouts?”

John Carter looked at Katherine.

She barely regained her composure and took out a map.

“It’s on the outskirts of Washington.”

“Then shall we go together?”

“Now?”

“Yes. Do you need a bodyguard? I’ll be your bodyguard.”

John Carter seemed to be lost in thought for a moment.

He had been kidnapped, breaking through the White House protected by modern military equipment. So, he was well aware that being with me was the safest option.

“Hahaha. Let’s do that. If I’m with you, the possibility of something happening disappears.”

“Good.”

“Teleport.”

Whoosh!

We immediately moved through space.

We teleported straight to the supply depot on the outskirts of Washington.

The only people who arrived here were me, Katherine, and President John Carter.

Kainers said he wanted to see the Earth with Seulgi, and we were scheduled to meet this evening.

I needed to distribute the food here to the Karen Continent as soon as possible.

To do that, I wouldn’t even have enough time to sweep up food into the subspace while going around each country all day today.

“Huk!”

“This is absurd!”

John Carter and Katherine exclaimed simultaneously.

It was impossible to explain what was happening now scientifically.

Katherine and John Carter stared at me with blank eyes.

“This is magic.”

“You… proved it right away.”

“That’s right. I showed you because I knew you would treat me like a crazy person if I just went around saying I use magic.”

“I understand everything now.”

John Carter said bitterly.

It was impossible to replicate something created by magic, not science. It wasn’t something that scientists could figure out no matter how much they researched.

Katherine also barely regained her senses and said.

“So that’s what it was. I thought you had surpassed the realm of science, but I never imagined you were a magician.”

The word ‘black’ was omitted before magician.

Of course, since I now used black magic, divine power, and white magic, there was no reason to call me anything other than a magician. Even among black magicians.

We simply walked to the front of the warehouse.

The U.S. military was thoroughly guarding the area, and as soon as they saw former CIA Director and John Carter, they saluted.

“Fo, for the nation!”

“Good work.”

“No, how did you get here, Mr. President…?”

“It’s classified.”

“Ah, I see.”

I had already told them that I was going to take the food in the warehouse, but the guards probably didn’t think the president would come in person.

We headed to the warehouse under the escort of the soldiers.

“This is the supply depot for the Capital Defense Command. We have everything.”

Outdated fighter planes were scattered around, and sturdy buildings were built everywhere.

It looked like that on the outside, but it would be even more enormous underground. It was the United States, after all.

As expected, the supply base was built on a scale of 20 underground floors, and what was visible on the outside was not everything.

The 10th underground floor is the food warehouse.

Not only food but also emergency rations were stored in large quantities, and I think I can take these as well.

“The expiration date for the emergency rations is almost up, so we’ll have to dispose of them soon. I’ll just give them to you.”

“Oh, I would be grateful if you would.”

Emergency rations enough for 100 million people to eat one meal.

I decided to start collecting that first.

“Ahem. Please turn off the surveillance cameras for confidentiality.”

“Why is that?”

“I need to summon workers.”

“Summon!?”

They had blank expressions for a moment.

But they soon realize that it is possible.

They are convinced that someone who can even teleport can use summoning magic.

The president ordered the surveillance cameras to be turned off.

I carefully check the cameras.

It’s not difficult to check with evil spirits.

“Camera number 5 is still on.”

“Hahaha. I understand.”

Finally, all the cameras are turned off.

I lightly draw a seal and summon vampires to do simple work.

Summoning skeletons would be suspicious, so I summoned vampires with pale faces.

In an instant, nearly 1,000 vampires were summoned.

“Gasp!”

“I can’t believe it!”

“Hmm. It’s too early to be surprised.”

What kind of expressions will they make when 1,000 vampires all use magic to sweep emergency rations into the subspace?

The emergency rations piled up in the underground bunker all floated into the air and were moved somewhere.

The emergency rations were sucked into the black space, and it took only 10 minutes for all 100 million emergency rations to disappear.

“How can this be…”

John Carter was staring at this surreal scene with a blank expression.

There was a reason why the Soo Group was doing so well.

So, the androids developed by Chairman Lee Yoosung all originated from this magic.

Well, if it wasn’t magic, it wouldn’t make any sense at all.

Soon, when all the emergency rations disappeared, Chairman Lee Yoosung said.

“Cancel.”

Swish!

After the black subspace was completely closed, all the summoned androids disappeared.

It feels like a dream.

Lee Hanjin shook his head.

He wondered if something was wrong with his head and he was seeing things. But looking at the empty emergency ration warehouse, he thought it was definitely not a dream.

“What kind of imaginary things are unfolding?”

“Sometimes what you see is not all there is.”

“Like now?”

“Yes. Like now.”

“Hahaha. I’ve lived 70 years and this is the first time I’ve seen such a sight. I don’t know whether to believe it or not.”

“It’s actually happening, and there are quite a few magicians in this world.”

“……!”

Shocking words flowed from Chairman Lee Yoosung’s mouth.

I was even afraid of what kind of truth would be revealed here.

“You probably thought I was doing indiscriminate M&A [mergers and acquisitions].”

“We, well, yes.”

“But no. Most of the large corporations were companies run by magicians.”

“Are you saying?”

“Yes. I have integrated the magicians.”

“Heo [Korean interjection expressing disbelief or shock].”

I was speechless.

So, it means that monsters like Chairman Lee Yoosung are everywhere, and he has absorbed them all.

I understood why Chairman Lee Yoosung had grown the company so much and why there was so little opposition from the management despite the indiscriminate acquisitions.

However, he did not tell me how he had subjugated those magicians. Even their identities.

“It would be best if only the two of you knew about this story. I’m revealing it this time because I have no choice but to take the food.”

“If you put your mind to it…”

“Frankly, world domination is also possible. I’m just not doing it because I don’t want to.”

Chairman Lee Yoosung was right.

If it was a group with that much power, it would be possible to control the whole world from the shadows. No, maybe it was already happening.

John Carter shuddered again.

Chairman Lee Yoosung is a huge mastermind in this world.

I can’t help but admit it.

“I’m thinking of growing Korea as much as possible.”

“Ha, Korea?”

“Yes. I want Korea to become a hegemonic power.”

“…….”

I didn’t say anything more than that.

The stage was set, so it was up to President Lee Hanjin to decide how Korea would develop.

I swept up all the food in the United States.

I bought all the food that had been stored in the well-dried warehouse for three years. Of course, the price was almost a bargain. It was because they had to dispose of it soon.

Instead, the United States also got something quite big.

After all, they were still fools, but by supporting the food this time, they were able to purchase next-generation androids 5% cheaper.

The amount of food obtained from the United States alone was enough to help the Karen Continent recover to some extent.

Well, I didn’t calculate it exactly, but since it was said to be enough for Americans to survive for a year, it must be a considerable amount.

I didn’t want to bother with complicated things, and anyway, if I went around here and there, I would collect enough food for the entire continent to eat and play for 5 years.

The subspace is completely sterile. In addition, it was a vacuum, so there was no fear of the food spoiling. It becomes perfect if you apply preservation magic.

I was planning to focus on the restoration of the Karen Continent first.

It was time to move to Russia.

If I teleported directly from here, the U.S. military would be suspicious, so I took them to the White House.

Whoosh!

“Heo!”

The White House again.

They still can’t come to their senses.

“Well, I’ll see you again.”

“Chairman. I have a question.”

“Tell me.”

Katherine has a lot of questions she wants to ask. I gave them this much food, so I can answer a simple question.

“How much are the currently released androids downgraded from the androids you have, Chairman?”
