CH 87

It’s been a while since I’ve been a villain in this world.

Now, the story is in full swing based on the original.

The emergence of those with stronger capabilities, the increasingly powerful villain organizations, and the swallowing of Yuseong Enterprise in Korea are in the second phase that will be filled with increasing confusion.

And I.

I was worried about something else, overcoming all that.

“I think Stardus is suspicious of me.”

In Ego Stream’s meeting room

Everyone’s eyes were on me, I spoke in a serious voice.

It’s a serious matter. What if she doesn’t see me as a villain in the first place?

No, I don’t understand why she smiled so unguardedly at me, who only terrorized and killed other villains over and over again. What the hell was going on here?

When I complained that it was unfair, Seo-eun, who was listening from the front, said as if she was embarrassed.

“No. Da-in, did you think you’d look like a villain even after acting like that?”

“What did I do?”

Choi Sehee, who was opposite Seo-eun, spoke up.

“Uh, first of all, there’s no casualties in the terror attacks, right? Don’t come out in those situations where there’s no casualties. You think people won’t feel anything fishy? Actually, that’s why I accepted your offer.”

“That’s not all.”

Soobin, who was next to me, also started to help.

“At that time, you contacted Stardus directly on the plane. What kind of villain says he believes in the hero in that situation and asks him to save the people?”

Even Ha-yul, who was quiet, opened her mouth.

“…There, the one you robbed in the middle of the giant robot this time. In fact, we saved people who were supposed to die. It didn’t hurt anyone. It’s not even once or twice that you interfered with other villains’ terror.”

Lastly, Seo-eun organized it and said something.

“Honestly, at this rate, it’s strange that you don’t notice. Even if you were in Stardus’ shoes, don’t you feel something strange?”

Huh.

It does sound suspicious when they put it together like that.

But Stardus doubted me for this?

No way. She is the embodiment of living justice.

It’s ridiculous to doubt me as a petty terrorist by that alone.

‘I can pay off my debt with this, right?’

Oh.

…Right, there was that incident.

The case where I took the stab for her.

Shin Haru even remembered when I said it was a debt.

“…….”

Maybe that’s why she was less hostile to me?

I mean, it was nothing. Sometimes, villains could risk their life and save some heroes. This is also a famous cliché in hero movies. Of course, I’ve never seen such a scene in my life.

I quietly tapped the abacus in my head.

What if Stardus finds out that it’s not because I’m a lunatic doing the villain, but it’s actually all for her and the world?

…It’s obvious. Can she fight with all your heart when she fights with me? The awakening of the original ability occurs when you grow up in a real crisis. If she knows it’s not a crisis in the first place, how sincerely would she fight? She’ll end up being lazy!

Suddenly I could see a bad future in my head. A terrible future where I kill villains for her, and Stardus just plays around without doing anything and gets lazy and starts knocking out other heroes.

No, the future is in the hands of Stardus. If she doesn’t power up, the world will perish and come to an end.

…And I don’t think she would have guessed that my reason for terrorism was for her and the world. If she knew that, would she have had the foresight? Of course, Haru had a similar initial sense. Anyway, maybe a little suspicious, but it’s not that serious.

“Da-in. But isn’t that something to worry about?”

“That’s right. Isn’t it okay because it seems like the association will chase after Da-in?”

I shook my head at the carefree girls.

It may not be to the point of extreme concern, but it is not to the point of not taking any measures. Insurance needs to be prepared to some extent. For example… Okay.

Whatever I do, shouldn’t I have someone next to Shin Haru who keeps reminding me that Egostic is a mean villain?

As expected, the answer is that.

Soon, she will be Korea’s de facto dark secret working under the nickname A-class hero Icicle, and is also the best friend of Stardus.

I should meet Lee Seola as soon as possible.

I think she’s the answer.

***

“Ha… Stardus. Are you sure that’s why?”

“Yes.”

The head of the association sighed as he looked at Stardus in front of him.

“No… How could the president have shot a nuclear missile that kills all people. Of course I would have just shot the robot flying, but why did you stop it? No, didn’t I tell you? That GOAB isn’t a strong missile.”

“…..”

The head of the association began to press down on his empty head. He soon began to lament in front of her.

“Stardus. No, Shin Haru. I almost lost my hair because of you. Do you know how much I’ve gone too far to defend you? I almost got fired if I did something wrong. Fortunately, public opinion turned around the president and it’s a mess. I didn’t expect there would be a day that I had to frame the president…”

“…I’m sorry.”

“No, it’s fine. Well, I didn’t want to see him because he stepped on my association. And why did he shoot the missile alone without consulting us? I guess he wanted to show us something this time, but he ended up looking like a mother fucker. Anyway, the robot exploded eventually.”

“…..”

“And you’re expected to be promoted to the S-level soon, so congratulations in advance. You’re really popular these days thanks to my comment, so let’s stay quiet for now. A lot of public interest isn’t necessarily a good thing. Go somewhere quiet and rest.”

“Yes, sir.”

“Yeah… Phew. I got a call. What is it… Shit. Manager Kim! Didn’t I tell you to block the Blue House!!!”

“Sir, they keep changing their numbers, so there’s no answer! I think you should just turn it off”

“Ha… Shin Haru, did you see that? I’m living this hard.”

“Yes, sir. Can I leave now?”

“…Yes.”

Leaving behind the quiet words from the head of association, she left the office.

As she walked in the hallway like that, she unwittingly clenched her fist with her own hand.

Zzzzz-.

And she felt it when the association gave it a check.

Her strength grew to a point. Now, even S-level promotion is being discussed.

There, she has also become popular, unintentionally.

This is all thanks to Egostic.

“….”

She saved him, this time.

As she thought that he might die, she moved her body without realizing it.

A reckless act without thinking about the consequences

If the truth were to be known, she would be buried.

What do you mean, a hero who forced a villain to live? It’s not unreasonable to be taken to the camp immediately. That’s how ridiculous it is as a hero.

But if anyone asks her she regrets doing so.

She may not be able to answer that.

As soon as she thought about Egostic, her work of the day overlapped.

After stopping the missile, she lost her strength in the sky and fell.

And some arm that wrapped her up in the middle.

He smiled slyly at her, saving her from falling.

And why did she block the missile, he asked her with pure curiosity without knowing anything.

…When she answered, he looked shocked, as if he had never expected it.

“Haru!”

“What?”

While she was walking with thoughts in her head, Seola, who suddenly appeared on one side, made a silly sound without realizing it.

“Did you finish talking to the head of the association? I’ve been waiting for you.”

“Oh, really? Sorry. Let’s go.”

“Yeah. By the way, did you receive compliments or something?”

“Huh? Why?”

“I saw you smiling a little on your way here”

“…I am?”

She paused a little at the word.

…Was she smiling?

Why did she smile without realizing it?

Behind Shin Haru, who started to think about it

Lee Seola was smiling quietly and coldly as she watched Haru.

Of course, she quickly took off her expression and talked to Haru in a bright voice.

“Yeah, Haru. Looking at the atmosphere going around these days, I think we can take a break. Do you want to come over to my house?”

“What?”

“Come to Busan and enjoy your vacation. Didn’t the head of the association tell you to take a break anyway?”

“Oh? He did, but…”

“No problem then! Right?

“Oh? Yeah…”

As such, it was decided that Shin Haru would go to Busan, where Lee Seola’s house is located, while she was stuttering.

***

“Guys. I’m going to Busan for a while.”

“What?”

I was caught by the suspicious eyes of Seo-eun and Sehee.

Sorry guys, I’ll be right back soon.

There’s someone I need to seduce.
