Chapter 21: The Debate (2)
I cant just give up my seat to anyone.
Then who should I rmend?
I dont want anyone else but me to be the representative
If not me, then who else?
Silence fell upon the crowd of 5,000 people.
There was no obvious candidate in sight.
No one wanted to rmend someone else.
As expected, everyones quiet. But I guess I wouldnt want to rmend someone else either. Hehe.
Minchul Youth was pleased with the situation unfolding as expected.
If it continues like this, the list of candidates can only narrow down to those who stand out.
Without any suitable candidates, the chances of him, who currently received the most attention, being mentioned as a candidate were high.
Ill just need to wait a little longer,
And as expected
I rmend Minchul Youth as a candidate!
Thankfully, someone raised their hand and rmended him.
Bingo! Haha.
Minchul barely held back hisughter.
Thank you for rmending me I never expected it. Can you tell me why you rmended me?
Well, I think the representative should be someone with leadership and integrity.
Is that so? Do you think I have those qualities?
Yes, in my opinion. You are currently handling the situation well, arent you?
Hehe, one more naive person added.
Minchulughed, but it was only augh in response to praise.
No one knew that inside, he was sneering.
Thank you for evaluating me so highly Its a little burdensome, but since you rmended me, I will run as a candidate. Does anyone else have any other candidates to rmend?
I rmend ck Scythe.
Another candidate appeared, but Minchul still had a smile on his face.
This was also expected.
The previous rounds top ranker cant be left out as a candidate.
Since he had caught so much attention early on and had overwhelming results in the ranking, it was expected that ck Scythe would be mentioned as a candidate.
Moreover, wasnt he the one who caught the attention of that angel?
At least there should be votes for the top three ranked yers in the area where their nicknames are known.
As expected, someone raised their hand and rmended the 2nd and 3rd ce rankers as well.
[Life is a Documentary] in 2nd ce and [ck me Dragon] in 3rd ce.
They may have lower recognition than ck Scythe, but they were still the top yers.
It would be even weirder if they werent mentioned.
Now we have four candidates. Whos thest one? Is there anyone left?
The youth smiled and quickly proceeded, knowing that fewer candidates were better.
Alright. Lets narrow down to these four candidates Before we vote, should we have each of theme up and speak? They can make promises or resolutions. Okay, let me start.
Clearing his throat, Minchul Youth scanned the audience.
Thousands of eyes were fixed on him.
Its a piece of cake to convince these suckers here.
If he could speak in front of the people, he was confident that he could win even against ck Scythe.
Ahem, speaking in front of so many people is making me extremely nervous. But, I will say a few words, thinking of the effort put in by the person who nominated me. If I be the representative of this district, I wont disappoint.
Man, youre full of bullshit!.
Minchul turned his gaze to look in the direction of the voice.
Whos that?
A man with a rough appearance walked out from the crowd.
His nickname was Life is a Documentary.
That guy is ranked second in this districts ranking.
Hisnky and wobbly gait, coupled with his spitting like a thug, made Minchul furrow his brow involuntarily.
Hey, everyone Minchul was about to say but he got interrupted again.
Cant you just shut up! Its annoying to even look at you.
What?
Hey, Minchul, you think the world is that easy, huh?
What are you talking about?
Just a few words can make people stumble like chewing gum. Its funny, isnt it? Right?
The Minchul didnt show it, but he was surprised inwardly.
It was a vibe that the man knew his own abilities from the way he spoke.
What, how? Howe he figured it out so easily? Wait, is it just a coincidence?
In the moment of confusion, the man shook his head disapprovingly, disying his difort.
Who do you think you are, trying to tell us how to choose a district representative? Youre just a propagandist. Do you everyone will fall for your bullshit, you son of a bitch?
Huh! Thats too much for a first impression! Words are a persons face and personality. Why do you think you can use such harsh words?
Minchul said seriously, but he was secretly amused.
Hell probably apologize and say hes sorry.
The power of persuasion is strong.
But it didnt seem to work as well on the other person.
Youre trying to teach me how to talk, you asshole? Do you want to get killed?
Uh, uh
Uh, Uh Stuttering like a bitch! Youre such a disgusting little piece of shit.
Hey! Isnt this too much?!
Whats so much? This is what a gentleman like me says to a piece of shit like you.
Minchul was at a loss.
Why isnt my persuasion working?
He tried again, but Life is a Documentary still kept spewing curses.
He didnt seem to have any intention of apologizing, he even threatened him that he will cut his throat if he talked again.
What happened? Is this really happening?
In the moment of confusion, Life is a Documentary spoke to the people.
Hey, you sons of bitches! If you dont vote for me, Ill make sure you end up like what Im going to do to this bastard. Got it?
At that absurd remark, Minchul snickered.
Wow, this guy ispletely clueless. Does he think can win people like that? I cant believe it.
Without a persuasion rune or something like that, there was no way an authoritarian method would work.
But that thoughtsted only for a moment.
Laughing, are you?
Out of nowhere, Life is a Documentary was next to him, he drew a short sword and stabbed Minchul in the stomach.
sh!
I told you, if you fuss, youll die.
Thud! Thud!
Life is a Documentary repeatedly sliced Minchuls body with his short sword, standing up with a face covered in blood.
For a moment, people froze at the gruesome murder scene.
If you dont vote for me, everyone will end up like this son of a bitch.
