A Hero Becomes an Obsessed Villain - Episode 303

since i was in jail.

Time passed very quickly.

It's a narrow prison to begin with... Well, it's not exactly narrow, it's wide, but since you're in an enclosed space, time tends to pass slowly. For some reason, time passes so quickly and helplessly.

And the reason is.

"huh? what's the matter?"

...Of course, it's thanks to her next to me.

I looked at Stadus sitting next to me and working hard, and I smiled without realizing it..

It's already been a few days since we've been in this prison together..

...And in the meantime, I found myself that the distance between me and her had narrowed significantly..

I'm on the sofa like that. I said with a slight smile as I looked at her sitting next to me and typing on her laptop..

"...You work next to a villain. Mr. Starders. Aren't you too careless??"

I glanced at the laptop screen and opened my mouth like that..

...Even when she's here with me, she's still working like a hero..

She went out to catch a villain after hearing the news that a terrorist attack had occurred last night, and was writing a report on the villain the next day..

And when I said that.

Starthers also chuckled, looked at me slightly, smiled, and answered..

"What do you think? It's not particularly dangerous information for you to see.."

"and."

After that, I turned my head back to the laptop screen and.

She smiled softly, opened her mouth and spoke.

"...If it's you, I don't mind seeing it."

After saying that, I looked at her engrossed in work again..

I muttered 'Is that so...' to myself, then looked in front of the sofa for a moment, lost in thought..

...What does she mean by saying it's okay if it's me?.

Am I a safe villain who won't do anything dangerous with her secret even if I see it? Or just something to shake my mind? Either that or...

"....."

Okay, what am I thinking about now?.

I shook off my thoughts and absentmindedly listened to the sound of her typing next to me..

crackling.

...like that.

Time passed quickly as she and I did various things together for nearly a week..

"how?"

"...It's delicious. Mr. Starders, are you good at cooking??"

"...Even if you flatter me like that, I won’t let you go.."

"haha. Have you been caught? It's no lie that it's still delicious."

".....I want to eat more?"

I even tried the dishes she made..

"...hey. Ego stick. Fans sent this to me, I'm bored so I'll try this?"

"Is it Zen? No, where on earth did you get this??"

"Don't hate it..."

"No, it looks fun. Let's try it."

We also play board games together that I don’t know where they came from..

"...ego stick."

"Yes, Mr. Starthers.?"

"...From now on, whenever we are together, don't call me Stardus, call me Shinharu by my real name. It's funny to call them heroes by their names when it's just the two of us.."

"...Um, uh, I understand, Shinharu. But can you tell me your real name? What it is..."

"...You knew it anyway."

"...haha."

"And now tell me your name."

"Yes, I... Wait a minute, you're acting so naturally. .. .Haha, just call me Egostick.."

"Sheesh..."

I even had a formal conversation with her..

In fact, my name is, even though the government does not have any personal information, I had already sold it once on the beach before, so even if I wanted to, I couldn't....

"...This is a bit stuffy.."

"So I hate it?"

"no. Where is this? Let’s go.."

...And on the condition that I wear handcuffs that limit my abilities with her on one hand, I went for a walk outside of Carcaeas..

And only then.

I discovered that this island in the middle of a stormy sea is more scenic during the day than I thought..

There was a park in the middle of nowhere. It was probably designed to allow the inmates to come out during their lunch break, but as they never allowed the able-bodied to come out of their cells, there seemed to be no one there except us..

One handcuff was on my left hand, and the other handcuff was on her right hand. we took a walk in the park.

With the calm sea breeze blowing, only the sound of our words echoing in the middle of it all..

At some point, when I saw her glancing at my hand, which was handcuffed like a bracelet, I opened my mouth and asked:.

"...why are you like that?"

"no. It's not that cold..?"

Seeing her squirming and talking like that.

I opened my mouth and answered.

"Iknow, right. My hands are slowly getting cold.."

I say so.

From earlier, tap, tap. Reaching out her hand towards the finger that touched me while walking.

I held her hand tightly, as if folding it first..

"...It's warm now?"

"....huh."

Seeing her nodding with a slightly red face.

I, too, turned my head and looked toward the forest, with a somewhat feverish expression on my face..

...I think I now know her behavior patterns..

My guess is that she uses beauty techniques. It seemed like he just decided to seduce me. I guess the intention is that I will make her like her and make her turn herself in and tell her all her secrets....

'But what can I do?.'

I liked her from the beginning. I did all this for Stardust..

So her strategy had absolutely no effect on me..

...I'm sure it will..

"...It's good. The scenery."

"...I know."

like that.

I felt the cold sea breeze while holding her warm, soft hand. Holding on to that warmth, I quietly walked through the park with her..

That's how we enjoyed our escape from prison..

...To be honest, it was fun.

Who am I in the first place? Isn't she her biggest fan, who can say with confidence that she likes Stardust more than anyone else in the world? There's no way she wouldn't like spending time with her like this.

Of course, there were a few times in between when Stardust wasn't there..

"Ego stick. I heard there was a terrorist attack in Seoul, so I'll go back.."

"yes. Bye."

Like right now, when a terrorist attack happens.

As a hero, she was the first to fly. Anyway, her flight speed is fast enough that she can go from here to Seoul in an instant..

"...There's no me, you can't run away?"

"I won't run away, so don't worry and come back.."

After reassuring her as she looked back at me with somewhat anxious eyes, she finally left..

As I was left alone, wondering what to do, I suddenly realized something..

"..."

...Wait, what was the reason I came here??

A monster from the beginning. I came to kill the wish-granter who was sleeping in the deepest part of this prison. I had forgotten about it before I knew it because I was playing with Stardust..

...Only then did I realize that tomorrow is already a week..

It was time to catch the person who would grant wishes..

"..."

Just like that, I reached into the coat hanging in one of the closets and sighed after realizing that there was also a hidden enchanted recording device safely inside..

...Now it was time to tell Starthers and execute the plan tomorrow..

and.

Finally, the moment to break up with her has come..

***

And at that time.

"...Yes, it's a day. why?"

"No... these days, I'm sharing the same room with Ego Stick and keeping an eye on him. But it doesn't seem to be getting closer than I thought...."

In the Yuseong Group CEO's office, Lee Seol-ah was listening with a haggard look to Stardus, who was talking with her head down and her fingers wiggling..

'...I'm jealous, Haruya.'

I'm dying to save the country from going to shit right now, but it would be nice if you could just worry about love....

In the aftermath of the great egoistic confinement, Lee Seol-ah is on the verge of death from overwork as she tries to quell the protests that have now grown to a nationwide scale..

While I was out of prison to suppress terrorism, I was listening to Stadus, who had come to give me advice, while sucking on caffeine..

In fact, more than that, it was shocking that Haru had not been able to make progress with the ego stick until now. Is it possible? No, if you're that egoistic, it could be so..

Anyway, to that frustrating friend.

Lee Seol-ah was a little tired and her head wasn't working well, so she gave her some serious advice..

"Then it's a day. Let's drink together."

"...alcohol?"

"uh. Basically, when alcohol gets involved, the walls between our hearts break down and we become closer.."

"is it..."

Saying that, Lee Seol-ah thought quietly to herself..

'I don't know. If a man and a woman drink together in the same room, it will come to a conclusion somehow..'

"Wait a minute, I'll give you a bottle....."

So Seol-ah Lee staggered to the closet and took out a bottle of wine from deep inside..

"ruler. Take this and drink it together. Then you will get the answer."

"...really? Thank you Seolya."

The alcohol that Lee Seol-ah gave Haru was.

When you drink it, it seems sweet and alcoholic, but in reality, it is extremely strong. It was a special wine that you can drink in an instant..

Seeing Shin Haru leaving holding a wine bottle like that, Lee Seol-ah thought quietly..

'...okay.'

If the two of you slow down to a certain extent, Dyne's psychological hurdle will also be lowered to that point..

...Lee Seol-ah had a plan..

*

And that night.

"Ego stick. Would you like to drink together??"

"yes?"

Stathers returned to the prison, wine in hand..

When I saw that, I thought for a moment and then.

'...okay. She has to tell her her plans for tomorrow anyway..'

You can persuade me while drinking..

Because I don’t drink much wine anyway..

"...yes. Sure, whatever. I will prepare a glass and snacks for you.."

I answered like that..

***

After we washed up together, Stadus and I had a drink, and some time passed..

"Now, ego stick! Let's toast, cheers!"

"...yes."

...With a red face, I quietly clinked my glass against Starther's, who was smiling brightly and handing me a wine glass..

dark room.

In a place where only a small light illuminated, I held my dizzy head and thought for a moment..

...Is this wine stronger than I thought?..?

Shin Haru, who is not good at drinking, has already been completely drunk for a long time. It wasn't like her anymore, hehe. Just looking at her smiling, it wasn't normal. Just by looking at it, the film will cut off tomorrow and you won't be able to remember what happened today..

...And actually, I was also quite dizzy..

"Hmm. joy. joy..."

Of course, Stathers, holding a glass of alcohol and smiling with a red face, was really cute. ...but it was really, really cute.

As I had something to say, I chewed my snack for a moment to come to my senses and then opened my mouth..

"Shin Haru. I have something to say."

"huh? What. confession?"

"...no. Could it be so?."

For a moment, I was almost taken aback by her words that came out with a grin on my face, but I managed to hold back..

After a moment of silence, he opened his mouth..

"Shin Haru. Now I want to tell you why I came to Carcaeas.."

...like that.

I explained my plan to her..

It is said that somewhere in this prison, an ancient monster called Inflace is sealed away..

If we leave it alone, it will definitely cause harm to this world, so we are going to get rid of it this time..

so. She said she wished she could help me.

I asked her to do that.

"...That's it.."

"..."

Just like that, she was quietly listening to me with a serious face as if she had never laughed before..

After I finished speaking, I was silent for a moment and thought..

Soon he smiled and opened his mouth..

"okay. I'll listen to you."

"...Rest. thank you."

...I sighed in relief at her words..

When I said it was for the people, they immediately accepted it....

That time when I thought.

"Egostick, because you asked for it. I'll listen to you."

She looked at me with a smile and rested her chin and said that.

As if there was no other reason.

...As if that's the only way to listen.

In her sincere eyes.

I was speechless for a moment.

And while I was doing that.

Stadus was silent for a moment, then took another sip of his drink and said to me with a grin..

"...Ego stick. thank you."

"yes? What?"

"Just... everything."

"haha. A hero who is grateful to a villain. If anyone else hears that, they'll make fun of them for the rest of their lives.."

"Haha... Yes. Maybe so."

She said that and shook her glass..

Then he yawned and said to me.

"Shall we sleep soon? He said he wanted to start tomorrow."

"...Yes, of course.."

"...huh. for a moment. Ha-am, how about we watch a movie and fall asleep before that? There's a TV in front of the bed..."

"That's right."

"huh..."

Saying that, Stadus got up from his seat..

I saw her stumbling for a moment, so I quickly got up, stood next to her, and supported her..

Her soft arms fit comfortably in my arms.

"..."

I arrived in front of the bed, suppressing strange thoughts and using the remote control with Stardust to turn on the TV and see if there was a movie to watch..

"...that. Yeah, let's see this.."

...With a red face, Stadus, who was next to me with his arms crossed, just like he was supporting me earlier, chose a movie with a red face..

I said okay and turned on the movie..

...Why is it a romance movie?.

like that.

dark night.

In a place where only the light of the TV illuminated the room, we watched a movie together..

The content of the movie was simple.

A story of love between a man and a woman who cannot come true due to their different social status..

...There was a pretty sad scene in the middle, and Stadus was sobbing tears next to me. Because she's very sensitive.

Even while watching a movie like that.

I was alone, drunk, and thinking about other things with my unruly mind..

...Is this right?.

Is it okay for her and I to be together like this? She, the hero, what on earth is she thinking about me, the villain? Is it really just an operation, or is there another reason?.

I do not know. My head hurts and I can't think..

Still, one thing is certain.

I am only of one mind, past and present..

So I quietly watched the movie, feeling her warmth on one of my arms..

Finally, in the scene in the movie where the two fall in love,.

"...ego stick."

Stardust quietly called me.

...And when I met her blue eyes looking up at me with watery eyes,.

I gave up thinking any more.

like that.

on a dark bed.

"..."

"....."

Making eye contact with her, I quietly moved my face closer to her..

...

After that, I don't remember much..
