Chapter 240
“Jiang Lei!”
“Half-draconians!”
“Y-Yusuke. It is really Yusuke.”
“Japan’s pseudo-prince...”
On the corpse of the ogre, three people stood—the young geniuses of Korea, China, and Japan, respectively.
Despite the onlookers being Korean, the irony was that Jae-Hyeok received the least attention of all. Rather than Jae-Hyeok, who’d only become popular recently, most people immediately recognize Jiang Lei and Yusuke.
Of course, that wasn’t to say that Jae-Hyeok was a nonbody. However, he simply wasn’t the highlight to the onlookers, which was only natural.
Jae-Hyeok was only a National Treasure candidate, whereas Jiang Lei was a genuine National Treasure. Not only that, the competition for candidacy and subsequent National Treasure status within China was hundreds of times more competitive than in Korea.
As for Yusuke, he was the heir of a nationwide religious organization within Japan. Were it not for the Japanese government’s silence on the matter, the religious organization could even be said to be Japan’s national religion.
Yusuke was widely known as a prince, and that was for good reason—his heir status granted him greater influence than even the National Treasures of his country.
Besides Jiang Lei and Yusuke’s innate statuses, the two of them had also cleared many S-grade gates and won all manner of achievements.
With those two on the scene, it was only natural that Jae-Hyeok would fly under the radar. Unlike them, Jae-Hyeok had yet to prove his worth to the world. Justified or not, Jae-Hyeok’s name had only found itself in the news for killing his fellow countrymen so far. That was far from a national merit of the kind that the Korean people and, indeed, the world at large expected of a hero.
