A Hero Becomes an Obsessed Villain - Episode 66

EP.66 Wrong meeting

perplexity.

My feeling when I first encountered Stardust was bewilderment..

No, why is he here??

You didn't go here in the original version.!

But there's no way I can say something like that..

So we were strangely looking at each other without opening our mouths..

....No, did you know that we would suddenly meet like this deep underground, a few hundred meters from the ground?.

Stadus, who had the same embarrassed expression as me, quickly changed his expression and returned to his cold expression..

She asks me coldly.

"....you. why are you out here?"

That's what I want to ask..

"...No, Starders. Why are you here??"

"I am a hero. Of course, there are monsters and dangerous substances here that threaten citizens, so of course we have to come and deal with them.."

She answers as if she is asking something obvious.

Yes, that is correct. That's true....

I heard you weren't here before.!

When I keep my mouth shut and make silent shouts.

She suddenly grinned and started clenching her hands..

"And... it just worked out. It's an unexpected harvest."

Wow, I think it's the first time I've seen Stardust smile since I came to this world..

The sight of her smiling while cracking her fist is truly a goddess.

It would be great if that smile wasn't just about trying to catch me..

"If you catch it gently, it won't hurt much.."

As soon as she said those words, she rushed at me..

Yes, teleportation.

I teleported behind her as she ran toward me..

However, as if she had expected it, she just turned her head and waved her arms backwards..

I had no choice but to move further back..

"for a moment!!"

"What is a brief moment?!"

Despite my desperate cries, she continued to fly towards me with her blonde hair flying..

What are you doing in this narrow hallway?!

"Wait a minute, let's time time!"

As I continued to teleport away from her, she finally gave up on catching me and raised her fist..

Man, that's crazy! If I hit you with a fist, I will die instantly.!

"Hey Mr. Stardust! Just calm down a little.!"

Then, as if she couldn't hear me, she flew towards me and punched me..

Fortunately, I succeeded in escaping by teleporting in the nick of time, but the wall instead of me ended up getting hit by her fist..

Cooung-.

Even though the force was controlled so as not to die, the wall shook with a loud noise when it hit the wall..

As a result, the ceiling shook, dust flew, lights flickered, and there was a lot of chaos..

"Is there any way to destroy everything here? Please calm down a little and listen to me.!"

The basement is still shaking.

After destroying half of the hallway, Stadus calmed down..

"...what are you talking about?"

Oh, you want to hear what I have to say?.

Her light blue eyes were fixed on me, and she put one arm on her waist as if she was not going to attack for a moment..

Now, you have to clean your mouth well here..

Or maybe I'll be dragged away....!!

"First of all, I have no intention of fighting. Didn't you come in from the beginning not knowing that we would meet each other like this? Why don't we all just do what we normally do??"

"...Tell me to leave you, the villain, to roam around as you please in this level 1 security facility.?"

Well, I guess not this..

"No, I didn't come here to do anything anyway. The Bank of Korea Group is so embarrassed, they just wanted to broadcast it.."

I said that and showed the camera..

"...They said it was broadcast here?'

Her expression is getting worse..

Are you saying this was also a miss?!

It looked like Starthers had clenched his fist again and was preparing to attack me, so I hurriedly opened my mouth..

"for a moment! How about forming a temporary alliance??"

"temporary alliance?'

Despite her eyes looking at me as if asking me what kind of nonsense I was talking about, I persevered and opened my mouth..

"Stardust, don’t you know how dangerous it is here anyway? Since it's like this, how about forming an alliance and going together until we get to the deepest part? In fact, even if they try to catch me anyway, I can just teleport away and that's it. Rather, it was fate that we met like this, together? We are going to cooperate with each other. I'm curious about what's down here too.."

Well, I think it's just bullshit..

Right now, she said, 'Are you asking me, a hero, to form an alliance with a villain?' It's not surprising if you get angry and rush at me..

Hey, what should I really do now? Should I just run away? My behemoth, my power-up, goodbye....

Just when I had already made up my mind, she frowned for a moment and then suddenly relaxed her expression..

Then she answered:.

"..Ok, fine. Let's just go together until we get down here.."

"yes?"

"...Why are you surprised when I tell you?"

When I was embarrassed, she smiled slightly and turned her head..

"Follow me. It was already difficult for me to kill it alone, so why don't you help me out?."

"yes? Ah, yes. great."

Seeing her taking the lead downstairs again, I had no choice but to follow in a daze, as if I was fascinated..

No...what is it?

I thought it was nonsense even after I said it, but seeing her readily accept it, I couldn't help but be confused..

what? What kind of plan is this? The Stadus I know is not that type of person.?

Of course, I thought he would rush in and say there would be no compromise with the villain, but I couldn't help but be embarrassed when he suddenly came out like that..

So she and I ended up walking down this underground together..

...What the hell is going on?.

***

Starders.

The things she encountered as soon as she came down to this basement were countless monsters..

They looked horrible, as if they had melted, and had one thing in common: they were all white..

Even though they all crumbled to dust and disappeared with one punch from her, the fact that each and every one of them had some kind of ability made her creepy..

And that feeling got stronger as I entered the lab..

The horrific records they studied.

The test subjects who would have been trapped behind the glass wall had long since escaped, and only their records remained..

"That's terrible..."

Monsters that would have been born from inhumane experiments.

She trembled slightly at the thought that if this accident had not been discovered, they would have continued to conduct biological experiments in the middle of Seoul..

If the accident hadn't happened.

And if Egostick hadn't broken the bridge.

It was clear that terrible things had happened..

"....."

So she continued to walk forward, slowly eliminating the monsters she could see one by one..

As we descended deep underground, communication was cut off and the lights flickered, creating an ominous atmosphere..

There are countless crossroads that are tangled like a maze..

However, she was unstoppable.

This is because her intuition, which developed over time, led her to go this way..

In front of where her senses led her.

"Ahh!!!"

When he came out, Ego Stick was standing there, startled and brandishing a sword..

okay.

To be honest, she was very embarrassed too..

Who knew that ego sticks would come out here??

But she quickly regained her senses..

Yeah, I don't know what it is, but this is an opportunity..

I don't know why it's here, but let's catch it and think about it..

So she rushed at him..

"for a moment!!!"

"What a moment!!!"

She tried to catch him, but as expected, he was running away by teleportation..

Finally, after she hit the wall and almost destroyed the basement, she stopped and listened to what he had to say..

He said he was here for a broadcast and.

"temporary alliance?"

His proposal was to form an alliance and go down together to the very end of this underground area..

After hearing that, she laughed to herself. Why on earth does she have to ally herself with a villain?.

After rejecting him like that, she thought about attacking him again..

For a moment, such a thought passed through her..

'for a moment. That bastard can just use his powers to get away anyway.?'

Yes.

It was a fact that had been overlooked because he only teleported briefly, but in the first place, if he wanted to, Ego Stick could run away out of this basement in an instant. From the beginning, didn't he disappear right before our eyes after each terrorist attack??

....That doesn't work.

Will there be another opportunity to meet alone in a place like this where no one is around??

no, probably not.

Given his personality, the next time we meet, it will be somewhere in front of a camera broadcast to the entire nation. On the stage he set up.

This might be the only time we can be together without being swayed by him..

'...Anyway, if I refuse here, I won't be able to catch him and I won't find out anything, and he will just run away..'

Then it would be better.

If I keep it by my side and walk around with it, wouldn't I be able to get to know it better??

The questions I've had about Ego Stick so far may be... an opportunity to be resolved..

And if you keep him next to you, you'll know exactly why he came down here..

Plus, that girl has never shown any sign of trying to harm me in the first place... She doesn't run away in the first place, and if we fight one-on-one, she will win by a landslide. It is said that there is little risk..

'Yeah, this is just to get some information out before you miss it anyway..'

Making an excuse that she didn't know who she was talking to, she said to him:.

"..Ok, fine. Let's just go together until we get down here.."

"yes?"

He proposed it first, but was surprised when she accepted it..

...It's funny, I guess he thought I wouldn't take it and just threw it at me like that..

Now that I think about it, I think it's the first time I've seen him look embarrassed. Because up until now, she had always been caught up in his pace..

"...Why are you surprised when I tell you?"

Somehow she felt cheerful, and she smiled without realizing it..

Yeah, I didn't expect to catch him today..

Instead, here.

This may be an opportunity to resolve the questions she always had about egotism....

***

Stardust accepted the offer of a temporary alliance, and we entered the labyrinth together..

...What are you thinking? I still don't understand.

So, without lowering my guard, I followed her..

Is this true? It's not that the hero is worried about being stabbed by the villain, but that the villain is worried about being stabbed by the hero.?

As we went deeper inside, not much happened between us..

Occasionally, she would kill the approaching test subjects with a single punch, so it wasn't scary at all. She used to get scared when she was alone.

Sometimes I tell a joke and she just chews it up and so on..

Of course, sometimes he failed to keep himself from laughing and laughed, but then he quickly changed his expression and glared at me, telling me to be quiet, which was kind of cute. I know all your humor codes..

Perhaps the end is near, as more and more research labs begin to appear..

She shuffled through documents with a serious expression..

what did i do?

She asked if the villain was looking at confidential information, so I couldn't see it, so I just looked at her..

Well, actually, being able to see my favorite person up close and personal for such a long time is probably a kind of reward.?

It was a sight to see Starthers rummaging around the lab with his blonde hair flowing and wearing a tight-fitting red hero suit..

Good, good.

Did I just find out something like that?.

We headed inside again. No, why is there no end here? It's not some kind of ant cave.

What was even more surprising was Starders, who was moving quickly as if he knew where he was going..

Did you research the geography here in advance??

...I guess my extra senses haven't already developed. no way.

Anyway, this time I felt like I had really reached the end. Because I felt the wind blowing from somewhere.

....But how does the wind blow underground?.

What we encountered as we continued walking was [Top Secret Area]].

And next to it, there was a passage painted in red..

"...What are you doing here??"

To her question, I just shrugged my shoulders and answered.

"Let's go in first.."

"hmm..."

After much deliberation, she decided to go in and take a look..

So we went inside together..

As I walked down the passage, what I found was a small room..

"Paranormal Ability Suppression Room...?"

She muttered when she saw the notice posted in front of the room..

Paranormal abilities suppressed? Are you saying that if you enter this room, you won't be able to activate your abilities??

No, the Bank of Korea Group also had this technology.?

This is some serious technology....

As I was looking at him with such a serious expression, Stadus in front of me turned to me, nodded, and opened his mouth..

"...Egostick, you go in first.."

"...Me? why do i."

When I said that, she quietly raised her fist..

...Yes, yes. I'm going in.

"Yes, yes. All right."

So I ended up in a small two-pyeong room..

A secret room covered in white on all sides. Other than a clock or something, there's nothing neat about it..

So, that means you can't use your real abilities here.?

As a demonstration, I used telekinesis on the bundle I was carrying..

"Inhale?"

Oh, that really doesn't work..

Then the instantaneous movement is?

I tried to concentrate, but as expected, nothing happened..

This is amazing.

"How do you feel? The ability isn't really used?"

"yes. Yes. What's the principle??"

As I was looking around, she came inside as if she wanted to experiment..

"...It really doesn't work."

While she was testing her abilities, I was looking at one side of the room..

If you use this well, it will be really great. What is the principle?...

While I was looking at the wall and doing some clever exploration, there was suddenly a bang from behind and the room shook. what?

When I turned around in shock, I saw Stadus smashing his fist into the wall..

No matter how much his abilities were suppressed, the wall was hollowed out in the shape of a fist, perhaps because of his strength..

When I looked at her with a puzzled expression, I saw her shyly avoiding my eyes..

"No, I wanted to check if everything was really suppressed...."

"No...what should I do if I hit the wall so ignorantly??"

If something went wrong, I would have been submerged here and almost died.!

Just as we were about to argue, an alarm suddenly sounded in front of the door we entered..

The entrance to the room, which was open, was blocked by a shield that came down from above..

thud-.

"What, what??"

She was embarrassed by the sudden situation..

Of course she wasn't the only one who was embarrassed. I'm also embarrassed. What happened all of a sudden??

Suddenly, a barrier made of cement came down, suddenly blocking the space that had previously been connected to the hallway..

"....."

uh...

So the current situation is.

Suddenly, in a secret room deep underground,

Stardust and I were trapped together, losing our powers.?

"....."

"....."

In such a small room, there was only silence..

hmm.

Fucked..
