I Became a Scoundrel of a Chaebol Family-Chapter 274
+++
Death tolls were staggering.
Leader of the ruling Equal Liberty Constitution Party, responsible for South Korea and Incheon Advanced Autonomous Isolation City – dead.
Mayor of Incheon Advanced Autonomous Isolation City – dead.
Mayor’s entire secretariat – dead.
All municipal executive officers under the mayor – dead.
Over 100 ruling party lawmakers of Incheon – all dead.
...
In short: an absolute massacre.
A massive black hole had suddenly appeared and swallowed every other headline in South Korea whole.
An entire political axis—the ruling party—had been completely wiped out in one fell swoop.
The only “silver lining,” if you could call it that, was that the ruling party lawmakers on the mainland had survived.
But even then, with the party leader, key executives, and aides all dead, they were left floundering in complete disarray.
In the end, the President had to step in personally to try and manage the crisis—
But how do you "manage" something like this?
The mayor of Incheon gets his head blown off during a live broadcast.
Then, every ruling party lawmaker in an emergency meeting gets their heads blown off, too.
Then the party leader’s head explodes on air, mid-briefing.
There’s no way to cover this up.
It’s a catastrophe of historic proportions.
How exactly do you explain this?
What's the excuse?
Maybe the best option is to frame it as an act of terrorism by some enormous extremist group.
Claim that this is war.
“We must fight back against terror.”
That’s about the only route they’ve got—spin it into an external threat.
But whether it’ll even work... that’s anyone’s guess.
And the worst part, obviously, is Incheon.
The political vacuum here is...
It’s honestly an art form.
You could put this in the Jeju Contemporary Art Museum and no one would bat an eye.
At least South Korea has a President and Cabinet members, so they can sort of scramble something together.
But Incheon?
Mayor – dead.
Mayor’s Secretariat – all dead.
Municipal executives who could serve as acting mayor – all dead.
Ruling party lawmakers in Incheon – all dead.
District mayors – all dead.
...
The more I look at it, the more impressed I get.
How the hell is this even possible?
There’s no mayor to take charge.
No one to step in as acting mayor.
Maybe a district mayor could’ve done something, but I killed all of them myself.
The lawmakers?
Gone.
All 100+ of them.
Slaughtered before they could even defect.
City Council? Paralyzed.
Maybe the military could intervene?
Except they’re in shambles because of Choi Cheol-kyu’s martial law stunt, and ➤ NоvеⅠight ➤ (Read more on our source) on top of that, the command structure of the martial law forces—the actual leadership—got their heads blown off too.
The stars that once lit up the night sky?
They’ve all come crashing down.
So... who’s left to manage this?
The police?
Maybe.
The police and prosecutors might try to cobble something together—
But even that’s a mess. There’s no unified command, so massive internal chaos is inevitable.
This is full-on anarchy.
What are we even supposed to do now?
When I had all the district mayors wiped out, I never thought it would spiral this far.
But the more I watch it unfold, the more surreal it all feels.
Still, I responded the best I could under the circumstances.
Priority #1: investment review.
My personal companies are 100% owned by either me or Baek Seol, so I didn’t have to worry about internal chaos.
But the stocks Muyeol Finance was investing in?
They all tanked. Instantly.
We took a full punch to the gut.
The paper losses alone were colossal.
But it’s not like I could blame the staff.
This was a global event.
An unprecedented political massacre caused not just the Korean markets, but all of Asia’s stock exchanges to shake violently.
And that shockwave spread worldwide, rocking the entire global economy.
Overnight, ₩4 trillion was wiped off my portfolio.
My net worth, which had once surpassed ₩20 trillion, vanished in a blink.
It was... oddly refreshing.
If there’s a guy out there who can profit off this, he’s not a man—he’s a literal God of Investment.
“Even if I have to pull more liquid cash using the card Hayan noona gave me, just keep buying.”
“Yes, understood.”
I ordered aggressive buy-ins for every position held by Muyeol Finance.
These were high-growth potential stocks.
If I bought while they were bottoming out, the returns could be massive later.
And it could also prevent disaster if any of those companies collapsed during this chaos.
I dealt with the most urgent matters first—
And before I knew it, the day had flown by.
The next morning.
I stretched and stepped out into the garden—
And then I saw it.
A swarm so thick it blacked out the sky, pouring toward me like a biblical plague.
“What the f...ck. What the hell is that?”
“...Uh, Master... Vice Chairman Go Min-young is on her way.”
“...”
Thud.
I dropped my phone without even realizing it.
That’s how shocking the sight was.
“...Are those... mechas?”
“Most are mass-produced units, but I can confirm several knights deploying personalized weapons. Yes, sir—they’re knights, no doubt about it.”
Sixteen.
That’s how many knights I had.
And fifteen of them had been loaned to me by Go Min-ji.
Thinking back, it was embarrassing—how proud I was to be standing behind that pitiful number.
Now look at that swarm.
All of them knights.
Anyone who looked up and saw that would be struck with pure, primal terror.
Even I, the direct heir of a mega-corporation that owned such monstrous power, found myself thinking—
“Is this... really okay?”
When a corporation has this much military power...
Shouldn’t someone step in and tear them apart, for the sake of justice and public safety?
Shouldn’t disbanding them be a righteous act?
A duty? A right?
Somewhere in me, I thought—
“This isn’t right.”
That’s how overwhelming the scene was.
It awakened a sense of “justice” I didn’t even know I had.
It was so absurd, so disproportionate, that it felt like an ethical violation just to witness it.
And I just stood there, staring up, drool slipping down my chin—
Too stunned to even notice.
+++++
Smooch.
Smooch.
Smoooooch.
Go Min-young had finally landed at her old villa.
The moment she saw me, she threw her arms around me and kissed me passionately.
Everyone was watching, and for a second I wondered if this was really okay.
But at this point, what was the point in hiding anything?
So I kissed her back.
We kept at it—ten full minutes of vacuum-like suction, lips pressed like she wanted to swallow me whole.
Eventually, both of us reluctantly pulled away, panting.
“...Didn’t expect you to show up so suddenly.”
“Had to. Look at the situation.”
Honestly, I wasn’t sure she had to come...
“...Thanks, Min-young.”
“...Haah... No matter how many times I hear it, I’ll never get used to that.”
“You don’t like me calling you Min-young?”
“No—it’s too good... ♥. Every time I hear it, I feel it echo in my womb.”
And with just a few exchanged words...
She pounced on me again.
Hugging me like she’d never let go, her lips found mine and stole them again.
Her body pressed softly against mine, lips warm even in the chilly air.
I almost let my hand wander, forgetting we were still outside—
But I stopped myself just in time.
I pushed her away gently.
“Let’s go inside. It’s cold.”
“Ah... Right...”
Her eyes wavered.
Her cheeks turned red for some reason.
I led her into the house.
And then—
Squelch.
“Ahhghk!”
Naturally, our bodies collided again.
No words needed.
We stripped each other without care and locked lips like animals, hands roaming like we were possessed, and went straight into the real thing.
Her warm, melting pussy swallowed me up as I thrust, focused entirely on the motion of my hips.
“Ahh—! Aahn!”
It was sex so hot, I felt like my brain was melting along with my dick.
She probably felt the same.
Moaning louder than ever, her walls clenched around me while her hips rocked in perfect rhythm with my thrusts.
The sound of flesh slapping filled the room for hours.
Eventually, she collapsed on the bed like she couldn’t take any more.
Her sweat-drenched hair clung seductively to her skin.
I wanted more, badly—but even my desire for her I decided to save... for next time.
While Go Min-young lay half-conscious, I took a moment to cool my overheated body and assess the situation.
Obviously, the entire country was under high alert.
Thanks to Choi Cheol-kyu’s martial law stunt, South Korea had been pushed into chaos—
And ironically, it had turned into real martial law.
The government raised the threat level drastically, activating a state of emergency nearly equivalent to wartime status.
As for Incheon, since every official with authority to declare martial law had been killed, Militaris had stepped in unilaterally.
They flooded the city with sheer numbers, locking everything down to prevent any further stupid shit from happening.
Seriously, they unleashed knights like they were tap water.
Who’s gonna stir up trouble now? No one. No one.
“If anyone still has the balls to rebel in this situation, I’ll personally salute the bastard for sheer guts.”
Even a child could figure it out.
One wrong move here and you’re having a very real one-on-one with the King of the Underworld.
The South Korean government completely turned a blind eye to the situation in Incheon.
Technically, this kind of intervention is a serious crime under the law—but they knew damn well they couldn’t control it, so they just pretended not to see anything.
Just like what happened in Shanghai.
“At this point, the group’s true might has been laid bare for the whole world to see...”
Until now, Koryo Group had existed in the minds of ordinary citizens like some distant, mythic entity.
They knew everything around them bore the Koryo Group logo.
That it was Asia’s biggest conglomerate.
That it supposedly had insane military strength.
But they never really understood the extent of that power.
How completely and undeniably this corporation dominated the world.
No wonder game lore always said, “shrouded in mystery.”
They’d kept their strength hidden—at least partially—up until now.
But with things this far gone, the "mystique strategy" was no longer an option.
