A hero becomes an obsessed villain - Episode 190

There is a hidden S-class hero in America..

His ability is to turn back time..

Immediately after I said those words, the atmosphere at the round table froze slightly..

"....."

Everyone was looking at me like, 'What is he that says such nonsense?' A face called.

Well, most of the villains here probably didn't know that such heroes exist or that such abilities even exist..

It's natural that people will be even more embarrassed when I, a mere A-level villain, suddenly throws out such explosive information..

As soon as I finished speaking, the round table froze for a moment. No one said directly to me, “What bullshit?”, but the atmosphere was almost the same..

And some even glanced at Celeste. Why don't you stop this guy from spreading such strange false information?.

And Celeste.

"...."

Without saying a word, he closed his eyes and remained silent as usual..

Of course, because she already knew.

S-Class Hero Ex Machina.

The only man in this world with the ability to turn back time.

The United States is already full of strong talent, but his ability is unrivaled as it is an incredible ability just by hearing about it. Of course, the association is very protective of his existence so that it is not known to the outside world..

He is mainly located in an underground bunker within the American Association, and has a hotline that allows him to instantly connect with the President of the American Association, the U.S. government, and the President of the International Association..

And actually... just now I was very energetic and said that he can turn back time! But of course that ability has a huge penalty..

The time it can be used is only a few minutes, not hours, and even that has a huge penalty once used, making it difficult to use again..

But even with all his flaws, his abilities were truly unrivaled in this world. I don't know anything else, just to prevent destruction..

The name given to him within the association is so-called ‘humanity’s last bastion’. He is the only one who can prevent the destruction of the world..

From the original work, he has prevented several nuclear wars and dozens of terrorist attacks that would destroy a country..

In short, his significance in the original work is not to make the world more beneficial, but to prevent the worst situation from happening. No matter how crazy and strong the powerful people are, at least the world will not be destroyed..

And he is like that.

Dies in a few months.

...Of course, if I even mention that, I might be mistaken for a real fortune teller, so I should explain his abilities appropriately..

At the round table that was so confused, I calmly continued my explanation, still smiling slightly..

"yes. They say you can turn back time. However, the time that can be turned is very limited, so the association manages it only to prevent the destruction of humanity.."

"....."

The round table is still cold and hard.

Of course, they still didn't believe it, but a few people seemed a little doubtful, wondering if it was possible. Anyway, in a place like this, I'm sure I'm going to lie or something like that..

...But how come no one talks about it? By now, it would have been time for one person to come out and say, ‘That’s bullshit!’ Yeah, like that red mohawk haired guy from last time..

For your information, he is right next to me with his eyes shining and saying, ‘As expected of you, brother…! 'You know such secrets...!' He was looking at me with this expression. No, how did you end up like this?.

...Well, of course, it doesn’t matter if you don’t believe it..

Anyway, even if you don't believe it now, just a few months later, through Ex Machina's death, his existence will be revealed to the world before the third meeting of Catedal..

While I was thinking about that, as I finished speaking,.

"...I think I've heard similar rumors.."

"?!"

At the sound of a beautiful voice coming from one side of the round table, everyone's attention was drawn to that direction..

Celeste, who had been just listening quietly, opened her mouth for the first time..

"....her."

That Celeste agreed with those words..

in other words. What I just said is very likely to be true..

At the round table where there was some kind of murmur, I nodded quietly without showing any signs of expression..

Actually, I was a little confused too..

...No, why are you opening your mouth here??

Hiding those thoughts, I slowly turned my head and looked at Celeste..

She is still sitting quietly with her eyes closed, as if she has never opened her mouth, with her face slightly covered by her white saint's robe and veil..

"...."

...I don't know what you're thinking.

Of course, it's a good thing for me. In an instant, my words gained credibility..

It wasn't so bad that my original goal was to keep throwing out bombshell information and make others think I had something and was a dangerous guy... but anyway, the existence of that Ex Machina guy was going to be known to everyone in just a few months, so it didn't really matter..

'...I thought it would get Celeste's attention, but.'

I didn't know it would go out like this. But, she is such a mysterious woman..

Just like that, Celeste and I closed our mouths again, and the round table was left in a state of disarray..

It was the next turn, the moment for Mr. Atlas to unravel the information..

"Hehe, why is this atmosphere like this? Now, let me unpack the information. Listen carefully."

In this way, Atlas naturally turned his attention to himself, and information sharing continued again..

but.

"....."

Why do I feel the questioning gaze as I sit still?.

I felt a few suspicious, wary looks asking, “How on earth does Class A know that kind of information?”.

Then, they looked at me and Atlas, whispering occasionally. In addition to the information, you might be wondering how I can seem so close to Atlas, a big man who is not close to anyone..

okay. Stay alert and suspicious.

So that you can think of me as more dangerous and dangerous than I actually am. Until the day you decide not to mess with me.

With that thought in mind, I leisurely passed over the gazes I felt..

So time passes by.

The long meeting has finally come to an end..

After hearing Celeste's final words of meeting again in a few months, the people got up one by one..

"haha! Egostick, how did you know that information? I'm surprised that there is someone with the ability to turn back time. Of course, he couldn't stop this Atlas, hahaha!"

He smiles brightly while saying something that suddenly caught his eye..

Meanwhile, our redhead said, ‘Brother! 'I'll just go!' After doing this, he left his direct contact information and asked me to contact him whenever I needed to. ...I hope the day comes when I write this?

That's when I got up with Atlas and headed toward the return hallway..

"Just a moment, Mr. Atlas. I have someone to meet briefly, so I'll come see you.."

"hmm? I know."

After asking for Atlas' understanding, I walked towards the woman I had been quietly looking at earlier..

She is getting ready to go back, with her black hair tied back, the gray samurai outfit she is wearing, and her tired-looking eyes, perhaps to make it easier to move around..

Katana, the head of Japan's largest villain organization.

When I approached her, she noticed me coming and stopped for a moment and looked at me in confusion..

And in that state.

I smiled and talked to Katana..

"Hello, Mr. Katana.."

"....What's going on?"

She asks me with a tired face.

"My name is Ego Stick and I work in Korea. Since we work in the neighborhood right next to each other, I came here to say hello.."

"...Right. Nice to meet you. But I'm busy right now."

She was just trying to give a rough answer like that. Yeah, you must be busy. Right now, your allied forces will continue to be defeated by the government and the association..

To her who has so many worries.

I smiled slightly and spoke to her..

"Oh, and in the interest of becoming friends in the future, I have some information to give to Mr. Katana.."

"....information?"

She shows slight interest in the word information..

Even though she looked tired, she looked at me with some interest in those words..

"yes. Let me tell you one thing in particular."

After saying that, I lowered my head slightly and spoke quietly to her ear. she said in a whisper.

"Natsuha Hisimoto."

"She is a traitor."

"....!"

At my words, she looked embarrassed and lowered her head and took a slight step back..

Feeling confusion and a hint of anger, I shrugged my shoulders and spoke..

"Well, I said it with the intention of being friendly. I hope my information is helpful.."

"Okay then, that's it.."

With that said, I turned around and headed back towards Atlas..

...Well, I told you..

Now believe it or not, it's her choice how to act..

"Have you seen everything??"

"yes. Let's go."

Having done what I had to do, I went back with Atlas again..

I can feel the katana behind me. Feeling her gaze.

***

'What is it...?'

Japanese S-class villain, Katana.

She was looking at the back of the man who had just passed by saying something nonsense to her..

Natsuha Hisimoto. She is a traitor.

'That's nonsense... No, how did you know Natsuha in the first place??'

katana.

She set out to fix the rotten Japan of today. Even if she was called a villain or considered a public figure, she endured it. She thought that if she could change this country, she wouldn't mind walking down the path of evil..

Luckily, she had like-minded friends around her..

Together with them, they are called the Three Gorges Sect. It has already been several years since the creation of the current largest villain organization in Japan..

But now, for some reason, the situation has been falling behind the government forces and the association. These guys move around like they know how to move..

Those times when she was worried, going through defeat after defeat. The man suddenly approached and spoke. Natsuha Hisimoto. She said she was her traitor.

'...Natsuha's identity is obviously not exposed, so no one will know....'

Natsuha.

Katana is a friend who has been with her since the beginning, and her trusted advisor..

I don't know how that man knows her, but Natsuha can't possibly do that. For sure.

'...Obviously, that can't be possible....'

But the moment I heard those words.

She couldn't go back until she heard those words..

Doubt - because that scary thing had sprouted in a corner of her heart..

"....."

In addition, his unconventional remarks made at the meeting earlier.

Although it had nothing to do with her, he said that no one seemed to know that America was hiding someone with the ability to manipulate time, and Celeste even agreed to it..

'...If that egotic really knew what he said,?'

As Katana thought that way, he continued to ponder Egostick's words without realizing it..

And, the sight of a row of ego sticks and katanas together..

"...."

Celeste, who remained on one side of the round table, was quietly watching everything..
