A hero becomes an obsessed villain - Episode 369
EP.369 - Misunderstandings and explanations
"misunderstanding?"
"yes. It's a misunderstanding. Mr. Starders... No, Mr. Haru. Please listen carefully."
I began to speak in a confident voice, slightly avoiding the eyes of Haru, who was staring at me as she was held in my arms..
"First of all, you know that Lee Seol-ah has enormous influence in Korea, right? He is not only a hero, but also the chairman of a large corporation. He's even dabbled in politics.."
"uh."
"...So, in order to prevent a situation where I was caught and my identity was revealed, I contacted Seol-ah Lee first and threatened her. That's how we established a business relationship. That's it."
"I see..."
But why did you hide it until now??
For some reason, I felt like I heard something I didn't even hear, so I hurriedly spoke..
"I didn't mean to hide it, but I didn't really care so I didn't have a chance to say anything haha.."
"...huh. okay"
She responded as if she understood what I said, but she still seemed somewhat uncertain..
...It can't be helped. It's been a very long time since I revealed my true identity to Seol-ah Lee in the first place. Of course, we were closer to being business partners... but we weren't tactless enough to say that here..
Anyway, she looks glum despite my explanation..
...Somehow, I felt that if I let things go like this, it could be a big problem later, so I immediately felt the need to do something..
...okay. It has to be like this.
"...."
I ended up making that decision.
Immediately, I opened my mouth to her..
"...And Mr. Haru. You know."
"huh..?"
"Anyway, the only one I have is you."
After saying that, I gently held her hand, hugged her, and said with a smile..
"Haven't I told you this before? My hero is only you. Who have I been looking for as a hero since long ago? I only found Stardust. Do you think I'll turn my attention to another hero??"
"From the beginning, the meaning of life to me has always been you.."
I said that with all my heart..
Maintain eye contact with her and hold her hand tightly..
And to my words, Starders.
"...Ugh, uhh?"
His face was bright red up to his ears, and his blue eyes were unable to focus and he was trembling as if he were embarrassed..
...Finally, her face became more relaxed than usual instead of the scary face like before..
Phew. Have we barely passed the crisis?.
As the day passed by my embarrassing confession, I held her hand and lifted her up in the sky..
"Now, let’s go to other places. Because there is not much time left. We have a lot to see.?"
When I say that with a smile.
With a red face, she nodded and said.
"huh..."
***
like that.
We spent the remaining time exploring various places..
And now it's really time to break up.
"Phew... I guess this is enough.?"
"yes. It's good."
We disguised our clothes as if we had been in a fierce fight, and soon we were holding hands and standing in a place that could not be seen by people..
Now it's really time to break up.
...And that seemed to be something Haru couldn't bear to regret..
"We... we'll meet again next time?"
She stands facing me and touches my collar for no reason and says that I'm arranging my clothes..
I felt a fuzzy feeling right below my neck and answered reassuringly..
"Yes, of course. I'm sure I'll have a chance to see it again soon. Do not worry too much."
...Actually, I was also sad about breaking up..
"..."
She was fiddling with my clothes for the last time..
Soon, with a sigh, he placed his hand on my chest and opened his mouth..
"Yeah... I guess I'll see you again. Because we are heroes and villains. right..."
She soon stopped talking and hesitated as if she was looking for what to say next..
...In a quiet voice, he told me.
"...You know, ego stick. You know I didn’t ask you in detail, right? Why do you keep doing villainous things?."
Her words like that.
...And that was true. She turned to me and asked, but I was vague..
In fact, when asked why I continue to work as a villain, I answered this way. It's all for you. By being in charge of Catedal, I will become a breakwater that protects the Republic of Korea. Actually, that's true to some extent..
And in my words.
She asked me sharply, as if she had intuitively realized.
'That's all?'
'...'
and i.
...I couldn't tell her any more.
Because this is the true purpose I ultimately aim for by entering Catedal. A secret different from simply protecting the world.
Because it's too early to talk about it yet.
...It wasn't a truth she could bear yet..
Did you read my expression like that?.
One day, he quietly changed his mind. Because I felt like I didn't want to talk anymore.
And now, she's talking about it again.
"...I'm worried, but I trust you. huh. I will continue to believe in you... so please don't get hurt. If anything happens, you always call me.?"
"Okay... Yeah. Okay, it's a day.."
And in her words.
I nodded and ruffled her hair..
Because now it was really time to go back..
The sun was already setting.
"..."
I looked at Haru looking up at me with slightly expectant eyes..
Soon he lowered his head and kissed her again..
like that.
"Okay, let's go back.."
"huh...!"
We returned to the battlefield.
After that, things went smoothly..
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
"Hehehe! Stardust, are you back?!"
"...okay! Had a bit of trouble chasing him down, what's the situation??"
"It's hard, but we're winning! Looks like we've barely defeated it now.!"
"I get it. From now on, I'll take charge!"
Numerous heroes and white soldiers are flying around, and the sky above the city is filled with smoke..
I came back from a battlefield where it felt like I was fighting really fiercely, and I said,.
"hmm...! great. Everyone did a great job while I beat Stardus! To harass so many heroes with this many troops is a great achievement. I'm looking forward to next time."
"What are you muttering about? There is no next time!"
"Haha, you can't do that. I'm leaving this time, but next time I won't look at you... so look forward to it. Well then, that's it!"
With those words, I defeated all the summoned soldiers and teleported away..
like that.
Today's terrorism caused by members of the Catedal is over..
...And after that.
It was natural that everywhere, including the Internet and the news, started talking about this battle..
*
[Breaking news! The invasion between our heroes and Katedal's villains has finally come to an end! This terrorist attack, brought about by the S-class villain Egostick's return for the first time in half a year, was a de facto war on a gigantic scale that could not be considered a terrorist attack before....]
[It was a war won by the Republic of Korea, but experts said that it was a 'victory with only scars' and that there was a high probability that what Katedal showed today was not all of his strength. The opinion is that we need to be more thorough with our defenses....]
[...In particular, given that the abilities of the heroes have been leveled upward since the last inflation incident, the fact that the soldiers summoned by Egostick are strong enough to deal with each of the heroes shows that Katedal's power is high....]
*
In that way, the news generally summarized and pointed out visible facts well..
S-class villain Egostick is back.
He held off the Catedal soldiers he brought with them, but they were strong..
We still don't know the extent of Katedal's power, so we need to prepare carefully..
...And this, of course, is the official news story.
In Internet communities where people actually talk, there were quite different opinions..
*
[Fact) Isn’t it just that Ego Stick watched this time??]
It was an invasion of enormous scale! (The villain is an ego stick))
It was like war, it was dangerous! (0 casualties on hero side))
I think Mango is just carrying out safe terrorist attacks with zero deaths, as it has done in the past.
Government Association Press <<< If you think you changed your mind just because you were involved in a cathedral, then it's a shame haha.
Oh, you just have to trust the rhubarb mango sticks haha.

[Hahaha]
[What is true is that Katedal is currently invading other places as well, but the damage is not as minor as ours, and it never ends without any damage at all.]
ㄴ[ㅇㅇ In particular, we are not even a city and we fought in the sky, so there was no damage to the city haha Rhubarb Mango How far are you looking down?...]
[Statement of conviction~) There is no need to analyze terrorism, and if you want an explanation for the disappearance of Ego Stick and Stardust for 5 hours, it's okay haha.]
ㄴ[ㄹㅇㅋㅋㅋ]
ㄴ[ㄹㅇ What on earth are you two doing here? Hmm, maybe I’m the only one who doesn’t know haha]
ㄴ[No, they said there was a chase between the two, but there was nothing recorded haha. It's suspicious. It's suspicious....]
ㄴ[If you think that you need to quickly reveal that you are officially dating, that's fine haha. First of all, me first..]
ㄴ[Ugh, egosta dads, you’re delusional. I know my brother is that kind of person.?]
ㄴ[Ice Mango Group arrested at Yuseong Group headquarters]
ㄴ[If you look at the posts written by this person, he seems to be a strong supporter of Hacker Mango.]

[I just don't need it all and it would be nice if the ego stick came back haha.]

[ㄹㅇ It’s even more tantalizing, especially since he only shows his face for the first 10 minutes and then disappears.]
