Become Overpowered CEO of Hero Clan – 080

Purify Aqua Shaper by himself.
Teacher of perjury against female student.
‘One aggro is real’
The birth and fall of a hero. Isn’t this a story that attracts nationwide attention? It’s at the level where YouTube, as well as media outlets, and every community are in an uproar overnight.
Most of the companies that filmed advertisements are flooded with lawsuits, and the number of mission requests coming in is decreasing in real-time.
What’s amusing is that the Hero Association, fearing I might get upset and leave Korea, sent the chief secretary to help with the recovery. Even though I did something trashy. They’re trying to hold onto me.
“Um, Leader. Are you really okay…?”
“As long as I’m okay. Now that I have a reason. I have to fight back.”
From Jin-soo’s perspective, the worry isn’t just about this. Being labeled as someone who beat up people and got expelled from school, half of the nation is in an uproar saying they should suspend the Harmony Clan’s business. Honestly, I’m scared too.
“It’s all thanks to you.”
“No……… That. Um, actually, it’s something that Eun-ha Noona told me to say that I did it all by myself to the Leader……… But, I think it’s right to tell the truth.”
“Was that so? Understood.”
Jin-soo receiving counseling for school violence wasn’t just about Hwang Man-deuk. Seo Eun-ha suggested recording everything Jin-soo does and releasing it later. And Jin-soo recorded all the school violence scenes with the recording function of the ‘Akashic Record’, exceeding a capacity of over 300 gigabytes.
‘It seems so devilish, not giving any answers.’
While villains and monsters are brushed off as jokes, the idea of ‘gathering evidence and ruining the perpetrator’s life’ in the face of innocent, almost foolish, characters being bullied in school doesn’t seem fitting. If they could harbor such animosity, they wouldn’t have been bullied in the first place.
“Did you also be bullied by Kang Ji-ah?”
“Yes…… I’m sorry.”
Yeah. It’s right to apologize for this. Does it make sense for a hero I’m nurturing to be beaten up elsewhere? Even though I was bullied until middle school, that was because I was introverted and skinny, and if the kid who could be subdued with just one finger was bullied……
‘It seems understandable.’
I wonder what an unfortunate orphan, with nowhere to rely on, could do against a child whose parents are members of the National Assembly and chaebol families. If you’re caught up in fear that you might be expelled from the industry after working hard to become a hero just because you clashed with a wealthy person? I can roughly picture it.
“Lawyer, please prepare because this could go legal.”
“Yes, but honestly, at that time………… I was really angry. I honestly didn’t expect Seonhwa Group to go that far.”
The reason why Kang Ji-ah contacted the student as a witness is because she was also a school violence perpetrator against Jin-soo. Since they were from the same group, it’s obvious they would go to Hyo-beom and whine, asking what to do.
‘He must have lost his mind due to the threat of revealing his girlfriend.’
Chairwoman Han Hee-su, whose anger soared to the top of her head, would have coerced Kang Ji-ah student into perjury, and the girl actually coerced us into perjury by wearing a disgusting victim cosplay.
‘She might be regretting it by now.’
There must have been more than one witness, so how could you cover the sky with your palm? I was just poking around, but I didn’t expect to get hit so suddenly.
But that girl was really tough too. She must have trusted Seonhwa Group and fought for it, even though she’s still young. Even if she had to stand in line, she should have stood while considering the difference in status.
“The truth will come out.”
In addition to student Kang Ji-ah, they had roped in not only members of the school violence committee but also the chairman. I was impressed by the hacker’s all-powerful information-gathering abilities.
Since he could see all the call logs and messages, it was much easier to manipulate the situation.
And regarding the assassination request from Lee Duman, I requested a re-investigation by the Association. I’ll hand over the materials as soon as the results come out, so please just organize them.”
“Yes. I’ll prepare accordingly.”
These aren’t the things to discuss in front of a child, but Jin-soo should know everything. He should actively participate in making videos that will overturn everything.
“And they say the suits will arrive by today. Jin-soo, prepare for the review shoot. The PR team leader will explain.”
“Yes!”
Whether the public criticizes us or not, the schedule was being faithfully carried out. Since a few missions were canceled, the members had time to breathe, so it might even be better.

The truth behind the covertly conducted traffic accident of Lee Duman was revealed in just two days. It was due to the pressure from the chief secretary, who assists the chairman of the Hero Association, on corrupt police officers.
Despite Seonhwa Group, ranked fourth in the chaebol hierarchy, being involved, the substantial power of the Hero Association was even higher than that of the legislative, executive, and judicial branches combined.
The belief that the world could achieve true peace only by faithfully inheriting the American democratic hero system systematically created by experts in philosophy, anthropology, and history, led by Chairman God Hand, was not nominally realized as the ‘Hero Republic’ by faith alone. In a world where the country cannot be maintained without heroes, the influence of the Hero Association was as vast as the sky.
– Swoosh. –
That evening, a single envelope was placed on Isaac’s desk. Inside were several photos and documents. Isaac quickly skimmed through the documents, and a creepy smile appeared on his previously expressionless face, disappearing in an instant.
“It’s time for a true education.”

In a spacious office overlooking the downtown skyline, a tall company employee with a stern demeanor stood at attention in front of the imposing figure of Director Noh Shin-sa. Wearing glasses, Director Noh checked a small holographic screen and then roughly slapped the employee’s cheek.
– Smack! –
A thin trickle of blood ran down the employee’s lip, but he seemed unfazed, assuming an immobile posture once again.
“You punk. After I picked up and raised a worthless brat like you, you handle matters like this? What have you been doing there!”
“I apologize.”
“She’s just like her mother, that daughter of mine. When she gets angry, she can’t control herself and rushes in like a wild horse. Didn’t I warn you about that?”
“I have no excuse.”
“You have no excuse! Didn’t you report properly?”
“Yes, let me explain. Chairman Han Hee-su received a blackmail message from a fan of a hero named Yeo Jin-soo, threatening to expose her secret lover. Yeo Jin-soo is the hero who assaulted Hyo-beom, and the message demanded forgiveness for that hero from the school violence committee.”
“Well, well, this is getting messy. It’s getting messy. And then?”
“I told her that it was likely someone from the Harmony Clan pretending to be a fan who blackmailed the chairman. The information was too specific for an ordinary person to obtain.”
“Ha ha ha, they must have been frantic. They dared to blackmail me after hitting my own child? They’re out of their minds. With their eyes rolling like that, they caused such a fuss trying to defeat an S-class hero?”
“There’s currently a boiling public backlash against Yeo Jin-soo and Isaac. Although Chairman Han Hee-su’s methods are flawed, they won’t be able to move recklessly for the time being.”
“What has this guy learned all this time!”
– Thwack! –
Director Noh threw a solid glass paperweight, striking the employee’s forehead. The employee staggered, clutching his head, but then, showing patience, he straightened up again.
“Heroes? Yeah, what about them. They’re all just pawns on the chessboard. Excellent soldiers moved by money in our place. But this ignorant. S-class heroes… S-class doesn’t cut it. Our common sense doesn’t apply.”
Noh Shin-sa sighed deeply, sinking into his chair. His hands were trembling thinly, but his gaze was as sharp as ever.
“Even if heroes face criticism from the public, they endure and manage their image because God Hand is a democratic leader. Even if unpopular heroes with flawed personalities exist, under the Association’s reputation system, they are naturally filtered out by the public. This way, exceptional heroes with exceptional heroism receive high reputations, and only such heroes can surpass their limits and become stronger.”
“Yes, I understand. So, heroes are concerned about their image, right? That’s how they can gain popularity and receive high reputations.”
“And who told you that?! Who blabbered such nonsense? S-class heroes have no chance to improve their reputation, and they are beings the Association holds on to tightly. The fundamental ‘power’ gap with A-class and below is dimensional. Even if heroes endure criticism and seem to care about people’s opinions, it’s all possible because of the Hero Association’s control.”
“….”
The employee’s face stiffened. He seemed to realize the seriousness of the matter through Director Noh’s eccentric yet seasoned rebuke.
“Do you still see them as just some who faced a bit of criticism? Do you still think Isaac looks like someone the Association can handle?”
“I’m sorry.”
“You fool! The reason this matter was allowed in the first place was because that hero over there committed a clear ‘mistake’ by assaulting our grandson. We had to adjust the argument accordingly and push it appropriately. By provoking an S-class hero like this, they might act recklessly… Ugh.”
Noh Shin-sa groaned in frustration, feeling overwhelmed. Whether the Harmony Clan would pressure Seonhwa Group with the power of a S-class hero as he foresaw was still unknown.

The red sunset that gently illuminated the vast world hid beyond the mountains on a November afternoon at 6 p.m.
In Noh Shin-sa’s office, a cold and emotionless-looking man with an indifferent expression arrived. Despite being blocked by two large bodyguards, the man’s face remained impassive.
Eventually, the two bodyguards, upon hearing communication from their superiors, hurriedly stepped back and bowed their waists. The man, named Choo Nam, walked briskly down the long corridor and pulled open the door ahead.
Surprisingly, as soon as he entered the office, his face contorted and transformed into that of a young man against the wall. Seeing his face, Noh Shin-sa’s complexion momentarily darkened, then he quickly brightened up, welcoming him politely.
“How did you come here in person?”
“The kids’ fight has escalated. The adults need to reach an agreement.”
“Well, even though I’m the chairman of Seonhwa Group, I’m not big enough to wrestle with Isaac. Please, sit down and let’s talk.”
The hero Isaac, who stood against the wall, glanced at Noh Shin-sa, the chairman of Seonhwa Group, who sat on the sofa, and immediately threw a yellow envelope onto the table. Noh Shin-sa, with furrowed brows, carefully examined the contents of the envelope after tearing it open.
“……!”
Soon, Noh Shin-sa’s face turned red and blue, his breathing became rough. Inside the envelope were detailed contents and evidence regarding the assassination request from Lee Duman. Noh Shin-sa’s anger was not only due to the shocking content but also because the corrupt police officers, who had been bribed, had not given him a heads-up.
“It turns out that a significant amount of funds has been invested in a wine company called Smile & Smile Inc. It’s because the Future Industry Planning Department under Seonhwa Group’s subsidiary, Seonhwa Trading, is directly managed by you, Chairman. Perhaps it wasn’t your daughter who made Lee Duman like this.”
The Future Industry Planning Department’s procurement team under Seonhwa Trading, a subsidiary of the group, appeared to be an ordinary department on the surface but was actually a special team used by the chairman to handle secret matters discreetly. Its members were elite individuals well-versed in illegal activities like arranging prostitution, and for decades, they had secretly supported Seonhwa Group’s status.
Moreover, Smile & Smile Inc. appeared to be a wine company on the surface but actually handled high-priced wines. However, the procurement team’s transaction records showed bulk purchases of wines inflated several times their actual price, revealing the meticulousness of their operations in stockpiling the wines in the warehouse.
However, if the procurement team of the Future Industry Planning Department is publicly known as the chairman’s direct organization among the chairman’s family and some directors, then the chairman’s real secret organization is ‘Smile & Smile Inc.’ He needed loyalists who would obey only his orders, as he couldn’t even trust his family.
This fact was unknown to the prosecutors, and it was the shocking truth Isaac had discovered through hacking. The chairman had not only ordered assassinations but had also committed numerous illegal activities by contacting villains.
Realizing that the opponent had completely exploited his weakness, Noh Shin-sa closed his eyes tightly and asked weakly.
“….What can I do?”
“Don’t argue and quietly admit your guilt.”
– Swish. Thud. –
Under Isaac’s ominous threat, Noh Shin-sa knelt on the floor and pleaded pitifully.
“Please forgive this old man! I will do anything. I won’t do such shameful things again! I lived through such times because I couldn’t escape from a world where you either kill or be killed… If you spare me just once…”
“I don’t want to threaten the jobs of many people. First, Han Hee-su must not stay in the position of CEO any longer. Please hand over that position to Kim Hak-dong, who was once Lee Duman’s friend and business partner.”
Isaac conveyed a few more instructions before abruptly leaving the chairman’s office. Left alone, Noh Shin-sa’s face seemed to exude a chilly aura, as if asking when he had knelt and begged.
“To abandon your daughter and protect your identity? Hmph, there’s nothing you can’t do. But if you break the promise, I’ll do whatever it takes to bring you down.”
