A Hero Becomes an Obsessed Villain - Episode 220
"....I never thought I'd still be writing this down."
my room.
I was there writing my diary as always..
As always, what I write down is a list of things that happened and simple incidents. And the feelings I felt.
I'm writing it down as hard as I know I'll definitely need it later, but I'm worried about how long I have to write it down. Still, I have to write it down, what can I do?.
After going to the Vine Witch and putting the specially sealed diary back in the drawer so that no one could see it, I naturally turned on the computer..
"hmm..."
Various files visible on the desktop.
Various terrorist plans and information on other villains that are being obtained one by one with Seol-ah Lee's help..
Step by step, everything was being prepared well..
...So, it might be okay to take a break for a moment.?
After making that decision, I quickly entered the Starders fan cafe..
Our Stardust fan cafe that I run myself.
It is mainly a place where people gather to praise and praise Stardust..
"...."
A peaceful fan cafe today too.
Popular articles tend to be about Stardust defeating villains and videos. In normal times, everyday posts are mainly posted..
In particular, the article I see a lot these days is Egostream vs. Stardust. Who wins?.
Once the fire is ignited, they fiercely confront each other and the number of comments exceeds 100. The main question is whether Stardust can win if all Egostream members attack at once..
...For your information, the sad thing about this piece of cake is that I am not among all the Ego Stream members. No, I'm pretty strong if I wear a Behemoth and bring a gun, right? So, I quietly brought up the topic, and the incomprehensible words that came back were, ‘Ego sticks are products.’.
'...What will happen if Egostream and Stardus fight together?.'
Actually, people don't know, but that's impossible. There's no way I'm ordering everyone to fight at once in the first place. Are you crazy enough to do that? If that happens, the entire area will be devastated..
However, assuming that was the case,.
'...Eunwol and Shinryong are strong in our team..'
Since there are so many pages in the first place, Ego Stream will win in general terms. Why was Seo-eun, who was blackened in the original work, hacking into the villain camp and breaking out, one of the four main events? There is no business in front of page numbers. Same with the Wolgwang Bridge gate..
Of course, that's generally the case..
'If you fight to the death, Stardust will win in the end..'
I nodded, thinking about that..
Starders. the protagonist of this world.
Strengthening the body, flying, and extra senses. It's nothing compared to her best feature..
There is only one reason why she was able to survive until the end of the original work, when it reached the end. 'The more trials she undergoes, the stronger her abilities become.' Thanks to this.
Ability becomes stronger.
Really simple, yet powerful features.
In general, heroes have fixed abilities. If you look at our PMC members right now, their abilities are the same as in the beginning..
However, it only appears that through training, the hidden potential of the ability has been bloomed and utilized better, making it stronger..
On the contrary, Stardust is not like that; the ability itself becomes stronger in the face of a crisis. purely, just.
'So, if Egostream and Stardus fight,...'
Will Starders, who experiences a crisis in real time, continue to grow stronger and overcome it in the end?...
Of course, if we fight to the death on our side, it will be a different story, but anyway..
I was absentmindedly thinking about that, but then I came to my senses..
....No, why am I worrying so much??
There is something more urgent than that..
Just meet the Vine Witch and ask her a few questions..
"okay. It should be around here..."
I muttered those words as I opened the drawer and immediately took out ‘it’ that was sealed deep inside..
"...."
This is shining white with a slightly cloudy gray color..
After the last Demon King incident, the moonlight stone was picked up among the remains of the Demon King that had turned into ashes and scattered around..
"okay. Since I have time today, let’s go quickly...."
With that rock in my pocket, I prepared to go see the Vine Witch for the first time in a long time..
Phew, I guess I have to change clothes again..
***
A building in a secret alley.
I was trudging down the stairs leading to the dark basement..
And as expected, the stairs suddenly connect infinitely, with no end in sight..
I'm trapped on a staircase that repeats itself like a scene from a horror movie..
Naturally, I knocked on a specific part of the wall..
It's good-
And as expected, the brick wall that slowly opens up.
I passed through the familiar old-fashioned hallway behind the wall, knocked on the black door at the end, and opened it..
And the warm air you feel when you go inside.
Her silhouette was visible behind the curtain in a room filled with candles that felt so elegant that it was hard to believe it was a self-proclaimed witch's room..
"....You came."
"Yes, hello. long time no see."
When you open the curtain and go inside, you see her sitting in front of a small round table. A vine witch wearing a dark green robe..
"I knew you would come today."
She said that while caressing the round crystal on the table..
...Is there such a thing as magic??
Anyway, after exchanging a few more words of greeting, I got straight to the point..
"Witch, do you know what this is??"
With those words, what I took out of my pocket and showed to her was the moonlight stone..
She quietly placed her hand towards the softly shining object and then muttered:.
"...I can feel the energy of the moon god. Is it theirs??"
"yes. you're right."
"...They are hastening disaster for themselves. A world that will collapse anyway."
She sighed lightly and then said.
"I'll try to manage it. I don't know if it will ever shine again...."
"yes. thank you."
After disposing of the moonstone, I asked about the topic I originally wanted to ask..
"So... witch. What time is left now? Until the walls of our dimension fade away and we connect with the other dimension.."
"Just wait and see. approximately..."
The Vine Witch thought for a moment and quietly declared..
"I think this year or next year will be the limit. If those fanatics come forward, it may go even faster. I think it's time to get ready.."
"...yes. All right."
I nodded after reconfirming the information I wanted..
It was quite a Zen question-like conversation, but in the end, it was said that it wasn't long until the monsters of the moon came over from this dimension. I wondered if the time period might be different from the original, but there was no such thing..
Having achieved the purpose of visiting the witch today, I chatted comfortably again and was about to return home..
Until she caught me.
"...Dot?"
"okay. Now that I can read fortunes, why not take a look into the future?."
She says that with her hand on the crystal ball.
...Can magic see the future??
Anyway, there was nothing to lose, so I sat down again and followed her words..
Then she touched the crystal ball, closed her eyes, and muttered. Then her orbs glowed, and she, the witch, also opened her mouth..
"...I can see it, yes. I see your future."
"....How is it?"
"It's a tough road. I'm going down a difficult path."
As she closed her eyes and said that as if she was serious, I swallowed my saliva without realizing it and focused on what she said next..
"...There are more than 10 women in the future, so it's definitely not an easy road...."
"I beg your pardon?"
For a moment, I heard such absurd words that I couldn't believe my ears, and those words came out without me even realizing it..
....Is this a joke??
Soon, she slightly opened her closed eyes at my words and smiled..
"Just kidding."
".....haha. That's a joke too."
...It must be a joke?
Anyway, the Vine Witch, who had just returned to her serious expression, opened her mouth in a serious voice..
"But I'm not kidding when I say you're going to have a hard time. can you afford it?"
"under. Isn’t that natural??"
I smiled without realizing it, with a voice full of confidence. I said something similar to what I said before..
"If I was going to give up here, I wouldn't have even started.."
okay. If I was going to give up because it was difficult, I wouldn't have even decided to start. The day I fell into this world, wandered around for years, and then made a decision..
and...
I crossed my arms and was lost in thought..
...In fact, we have prepared everything before Moonlight Gate. If everything goes according to schedule, I'll probably go all the way until then without any problems. Nothing special will happen.
but...
"....."
Why on earth?.
Do I keep feeling this ominous feeling?.
***
Korea, somewhere underground.
In that dark space with little light, several people were smiling..
"...Haha. Yeah, I finally figured it out.."
"Now it's over for him too."
They speak in evil voices, voices mixed with laughter.
"okay. Who knew? we..."
Among them, the leader-like villain sitting in the middle..
He opened his mouth with a smile that he couldn't hide..
"We have finally revealed the identity of that proud ego stick.."
"leader. This information contains the person's face, name, and place of residence. It is said to be definitely correct information.!"
"Hehehe... okay. On the day of the decisive battle, let's spread this guy's identity across the country through broadcasting stations. Hahaha! Now is the end for Korea to be dominated by egotics.!"
They burst into laughter like that.
At the end, the man said with a cold smile:.
"If his identity is revealed, he will actually end up in the hands of heroes.."
"Haha! you're right. Who would have known that the villain who controls Korea was working part-time at a bakery with his parents?!"
"Haha. okay. Let’s see if you can smile like that again when everyone in the country knows your face and name. Ego stick. No, if you call me by my name-"
Having said that, he said with a cold smile the real name of their ego-stick..
"- Kim Cheol-woo. That's you."
Hahahahaha!!!
like that.
Their light filled the dark basement for a long time..
And at that time.
"Cheolwoo, can you please arrange the bread for me??"
"your mother."
Kim Cheol-woo (25 years old, college student, ordinary person), who works at his parents' bakery, was busy carrying bread..
Without knowing the tragedy that would soon come to him...
***
"Phew..."
"hmm? Ego stick, is that happening all of a sudden??"
"yes? Oh, it's nothing. I felt uneasy just a moment ago, but it suddenly disappeared, so I was relieved. I guess it was just a misunderstanding..."
"...It's bland.."
This is the last registered session.
