A hero becomes an obsessed villain - Episode 174

EP.174 Wrong judgment

I don't know how long ago it was since the last time there was a terrorist attack on Stardust..

Of course, I met him once last time when there was a fight between Mist and Shadow Walker, and I've seen him from a distance a few times..

I just literally saw it, but it's been a long time since I actually moved my body and met it. Because that beach vacation was my last..

In other words, I want to spend meaningful time with Stardust now..

And of course, that significant time was terrorism..

"what should i do..."

I sat down, leaned back on the chair, and thought quietly..

Of course, there are some terrorist attacks prepared....

"Write it..."

I replayed the last battle I saw, where Starthers was fighting that gorilla..

...I'm not sure if it's because I saw it from a distance..

"Definitely got a lot stronger?"

okay. That's the key point.

Whatever it is, it was definitely stronger than the original. It's so incomparable.

When I got home and looked at the settings notes I had written before, there was a mention of that fire-breathing gorilla. Stardust was literally on the offensive and barely managed to catch it in a war of attrition..

Compared to then, I'm really stronger now..

I argued with that gorilla for a bit and then just knocked him down. Truly a touching true story.

But the question is, exactly how strong has it become?.

But one thing is certain: I think I'm a little stronger than I thought....

"Hmm..."

I clenched my chin and pondered..

...In fact, a few months later, another great villain appears. He's a crazy guy who takes over an area and then goes on a rampage. Also, because of the strong wind, it took another year for him to be destroyed in the original work. Starders dug into the ground, taking care of the thick waste again..

So, since he was the main villain, I knew everything about the villain's name and where he lived, so I just tried to kill him in advance. Because Stardust won’t be able to beat him anyway..

but...

"Write... Is it possible...?"

Now that I look at it, I think it will be okay if I do well..

I don't think so.

It was ambiguous because I hadn’t tried it in person..

However, if you throw Stardust right into that quagmire, it will make a bit of noise..

Anyway, so terrorism. What should we do with terrorism?.

If possible, it would be nice to have something that can clearly check Stardust's skills....

Should we worry about terrorism or inspect PMC facilities? A few days have passed by..

One day, when I was still worrying, Seo-eun grabbed my hand and dragged me into the basement..

"They also made that robot weapon.?"

"It's a robot weapon, so call it a suit. Anyway, it's real this time, brother. You can easily beat Stardust!"

Seo-eun shouts confidently again.

She had been targeting Stardust as competition for some time, so there was nothing particularly new about it..

However, I remember being a bit surprised because the suit I made just before was actually quite strong. Of course, it didn't work out for Stardust, but that's just because Stardust is too strong right now....

So Seo-eun opened the basement door again..

Then what caught my eye was.

"oh..."

"ruler! how is it!"

Seo-eun showed off confidently with her hands on her hips..

The form of the weapon was something that looked very heterogeneous compared to before..

If the previous weapons were like heavy human-shaped suits, this one looks like some kind of flying alien machine..

This weapon has a large circular body made of metal with four arms attached from the top and bottom, floating in the air..

"This is my ambitious project, aka Star Destroyer.!"

Seo-eun said proudly, showing off this huge weapon..

No, but just looking at it, it just looks strong. The design is very different from the previous version, but I think that makes it look stronger..

When I gave a small exclamation, Seo-eun, who seemed even more excited, worked hard to explain to me..

Roughly speaking, we can see how durable these metals are, what kind of advanced technology was used, and how amazing they are with the addition of Eunwol’s magic. all those things.

Since this is already the third time I've made a suit for Stardust, I guess I've accumulated a lot of know-how..

With that in mind, I smiled and listened to Seoeun chattering cutely..

Of course, the content wasn't very cute..

"...So, one person can fit into this circular body, and you can control it from here! This side is strengthened with the magic that Eunwol casted, and the torso is basically floating, so it can move freely along the x, y, and z axes, and the arms! There's a missile attached to this arm...."

The more I listened to Seo-eun's words, the more I felt secretly tempted..

No, I think this is actually pretty well made. Of course, I'll have to do some actual training, but at this level, I think I can last quite a long time even against Stardust..

I once again looked back at Seo-eun, who was chattering in front of me..

...okay. If you think about it, Seo-eun was also one of the main villains in the original work. It was also incredibly strong.

He's so cute now... but when I first met him, he was quite harsh. I tried quite hard to get him to open his heart. Did it take a year?.

"brother?"

"huh?"

"I'm listening?"

"uh. of course. I think you really did a great job this time, Seo Eun. It's awesome?"

"Right? lol. Eunwol and Sehee helped me a lot.!"

I patted Seo-eun's head, who immediately felt good about my praise, and fell into my thoughts again. But now that I look at Seo-eun’s height, she seems a bit tall..

At that time, Seo-eun was confident that this weapon would be able to defeat Stardust this time..

For a moment, something flashed across my mind..

"....."

After organizing my thoughts and taking some time,.

After a while, I asked Seoeun..

"Seo-eun, but no matter what, this weapon just needs to defeat Stadus.?"

"yes? yes Well, that's right. In the future, I plan to develop it as an unmanned vehicle so I don't have to ride it at all...."

"Then I can just drive this.?"

".....yes?"

Seo-eun blinks at my sudden words..

Um, where do I begin to explain this?.

***

It's been quite a while since there was a terrorist attack against Stardust..

Of course, among them, the number of times I have had a close fight alone is so small that I can count on one hand. Most of them fought together with our Egostream members..

In such a situation, I still wanted to check Stardust's power, but when I saw the weapon Seo-eun made, I got a feeling..

what? If I were to fight riding that thing, it would just be a one-shot Stardust ability check.?

Also, I don't know much about Stardust's attack patterns or fighting habits, so I assume it will be even more perfect..

So, without saying anything like I want to spend time alone with Stardus for the first time in a long time, I persuaded Seo-eun by roughly adding the following two words, and soon Seo-eun was convinced..

"Hmm... Well, what you say makes sense. If only I could win with that. Maybe he's better than me? great."

"Thank you Seo Eun."

"...But I'm a little worried. Well, this isn't the finished product yet, so I just need to paint it a little more... Since my brother is riding it, I'll do some more modifications...."

Seo-eun, who was busy taking care of something, soon asked me as if she had remembered something before adding something..

"Ah, brother. Then who will you be with when you use this to carry out a terrorist attack? Eunwol? Sehee unni or Jayoung unnie?"

"Um... I guess I'll do it alone.."

"yes? Alone?"

"uh. And Seo-eun, please paint it a little differently than before. Not to be noticed."

"...yes? why?"

"ah. When carrying out a terrorist attack this time, pretend to be a third party that has nothing to do with Ego Stick and carry out the terrorist attack. If you get on there anyway, you can’t even see your face.?"

"???"

Seo-eun is very embarrassed. No, there is a reason for all of this. Since I do terrorist attacks so often, Stardust may have become a little used to me. I just figured out the pattern..

So, in order to really check her power this time, I'm planning to make her feel like she's a villain she's never seen before. Also, since I have not suffered any casualties from her and have such a track record, I think it would be more advantageous to go with her third-person concept like this and let her show her true feelings..

Of course, Seo-eun wasn't particularly convinced by my explanation, but she pressed ahead anyway. The legendary 'villain' is coming soon, and if we want to properly check whether Stardust can deal with him, we cannot tolerate this much error..

Of course, it doesn't matter if you get caught at the last minute. Just roughly figure out the power and voila! In fact, all you have to do is shout out loud and jump out..

How many hits will I get during the fight? Is my tenacity enough? I'll be able to endure it.

That's how my next terrorist attack was decided..

Wear a 4-armed suit floating in the air and fight Starthers pretending not to be an ego stick. Of course I'm alone.

Of course, there were some opposing opinions that it was too dangerous, but in the end, everyone accepted it..

After a few weeks of preparation,.

The day of terrorism has dawned.

***

Last time, Egostick said to Meteel, 'My hero is none other than Stardus.' After declaring.

Shinharu's mood improved a little without him realizing it, but after a few weeks, it got worse again..

"ha..."

Hero Association's Office.

Haru, sprawled out on the desk there, let out a deep sigh..

...Somehow, terrorist attacks have become more frequent these days. The number of villains also increased..

But the real problem that worries her is that none of the many terrorist attacks were caused by egotism..

In fact, it was a draining task for Shin Haru, who was focusing all his attention on Ego Stick..

"...You have to commit terrorism to investigate or do something else.."

Shinharu muttered that without even realizing it..

It was a strange sight, with the hero just waiting for the villain's terror, but no one here pointed that out..

...As the days go by, I become more concerned, and memories of the past with him keep coming back to me..

Is this really a strong will to arrest?.

She was waiting in the office waiting for him, who didn't come again today. I touched the area around my tired eyes because I had trouble sleeping yesterday thinking about this and that..

And then, at that time.

An association employee appeared from somewhere again..

"Stardust! Another terrorist attack occurred!"

"Haha... who is this time??"

"He's riding a strange mechanical device that calls himself the Chaos Destroyer, and is said to be currently attacking the city! It is no match for anything below B grade.!"

"all right. I'll go out now."

On a new day, Stadus stood up, relaxed his strength by moving his arms around, then hit the window and flew up..

...It's probably just a useless terrorist attack by a useless guy anyway..

Let's just quickly step on it and come.

It's a mechanical device. Just smash it up.

Until then she thought so.
