A Hero Becomes an Obsessed Villain - Episode 84
EP.84 recognized
It's been quite a while since Stardust faced a giant weapon..
".....ha. ha."
In the midst of the ongoing battle, she stopped the attack to catch her breath and moved away from it a bit..
Fortunately, he gave me a chance to rest, but he didn't chase me and attack me or anything like that..
Thanks to that, she was able to exhale and rest for a moment like this..
"...Phew."
She looked very tired as she was wiping her sweat in the air..
The suit I was wearing was so tight that I could see the inside..
Her iconic blonde hair is also seen blowing here and there in the wind..
In that situation, she judged herself objectively..
Her current condition was not good to say the least..
Except for this small break, he was constantly flying and fighting for hours against weapons that were several times his weight class... In fact, standing like this right now was incredible..
You've already overworked your body so much that it wouldn't be surprising if you collapsed at any time..
In an extreme situation like this where it is difficult to make even a fistful of punches,.
Paradoxically, she felt her strength growing stronger..
"......"
In order to produce output in a state of loss of power and in good condition,.
Because I tried to exert too much force,.
It feels like my abilities are gradually breaking through without my knowledge..
Just as an athlete develops skills by running while wearing a sandbag,.
The more she gritted her teeth and tried to exert her usual strength in a situation where she was pushed to her limit, the more she felt something stirring inside her..
It felt like her strength, which had been stagnant for a while, was gradually growing again..
I have a feeling that with just a little more stimulation, I can grow explosively..
With that thought in mind, she looked again at the cockpit of the gigantic weapon that Ego Stick was riding in..
Did he do this because he knew his abilities could grow in this way??
...maybe for this?
'you can.'
She shook her head, thinking of his voice playing again in her ears..
Even so, it won't go there..
maybe...
After getting enough rest, she took another breath and prepared to resume the fight..
okay. Whether he intended it or not, it is a great opportunity to increase his strength. The stronger your abilities, the greater your chances of being able to protect citizens from villains..
For now, let's focus on beating him..
With that promise, when she steps forward again.
Suddenly, a voice started coming from the earphones she had forgotten were in her ears..
[Starders. Stardust, can you hear me??]
"President of the Association..?"
As she was heading back to where the weapon was, she stopped without realizing it..
I'm so busy fighting right now, why are you contacting me?.
As if to answer her question, the association president's voice was heard through the earphones..
[It's a change of strategy. Be prepared to withdraw soon.]
"....yes?"
She couldn't help but tilt her head at the association president's words. She is currently fighting well and breaking through her limits, but is she withdrawing? The charter situation is not particularly unfavorable.?
Just as she was about to question her without realizing it, the president of the association spoke in a low voice..
[The President shot GOAB there. It's about to fall into that giant weapon, so watch your timing and run away..]
"...What did you shoot??"
[...GOAB-3. It's a stealth guided missile. It is the most powerful missile at the moment, almost destroying the surrounding area. It's already flying there now.]
The moment she heard that, her head turned white without her knowledge. You fired a missile? here?
No, but wait a minute..
"...First of all, can you catch that thing with a missile??"
[okay. It was being developed in secret. The power was so strong that if it had been in the middle of the city, the city would have been blown away and they wouldn't have been able to shoot it, but they say they were able to shoot it because Ego Stick went to the outskirts..]
"Are you crazy now? Anyway, what if I shoot something like that here?!"
[If you were to ask me, what would I say? It's the president's dogma. He said that he would use this opportunity to get rid of the evil villains who are disrupting the country. Increasing trust in government.]
Starders, who had been excited to hear that, calmed down and tried to regain his senses..
okay. A grade villain. The cause is clear. There will probably never be another opportunity like the present. Especially since he is stuck inside that weapon, there is no time to understand his surroundings..
"......"
Stadus, who heard that far, hardened his face..
Both the government and the association are sincere..
Right here and now, I plan to launch that giant weapon and the ego stick at the same time..
...okay. In fact, it is not uncommon to kill a villain who is impossible to capture alive..
Many of the A-level villains, including Egostick, are already on the list of possible summary executions..
therefore
Right here and now, the ego stick dies.?
"......"
No.
He'll notice the missiles coming..
He was always one step above me and looked down as if he knew everything, so of course he would know..
okay. So, I'll probably run away right away. Because there is also instantaneous movement..
Yeah, I guess?
[You're finally back, Mr. Stardust! How long are you going to make me wait??]
When she quietly returns, his booming voice is heard from the giant weapon..
...He is a villain who waits until the hero gets enough rest rather than fighting..
"....."
She thought, once again having a complex and nuanced appreciation for egotism..
okay.
If that's the case, he will definitely run away during the battle. Of course it is.
And, there is still time before the missile flies. I'll run away soon.
With that thought in mind, she continued to fight as if nothing had happened..
Still, her mind was complicated..
You will notice and run away, right? It will be like that.
You probably already know.
[Why are you so unable to concentrate on the battle? Please pay attention!]
And is it because she keeps thinking about something else?.
He noticed that his condition was strange and told him to concentrate..
...It's so funny. If the enemy isn't focused, isn't it better for him??
[Starders. The missiles are about to fall. Slowly run away.]
And, how much time has passed? The association president's voice heard in her ears.
After hearing his words, she looked at the ego stick once again..
[hahahahahahahaha!]
He waved his huge arms wildly, still showing no signs of alertness..
No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like he knows that a missile is falling on his head..
"......"
then. If she stays still now, he'll die like this..
Looking at him like that, she thought about him again for a moment..
Ego stick. He is a definite villain. The number of terrorist attacks he has caused so far is numerous..
So, even if the government tries to kill him, there is nothing unfair about it. It's natural. You should kill a dangerous villain while you can..
however.
Is it true that he ends up like this in this place??
She thought.
In the face of his death.
She doesn't deny him herself
honestly for the first time
Ego Stick, I thought about him..
Ego stick. At first, she had decided that, like other villains, he was simply a 'bad guy' who took pleasure in scaring people and committed terrorism for his own amusement..
But since when?.
When I found out that every time he carried out a terrorist attack, there were no deaths as a result.?
When he found out that all the villains he killed were dangerous people?
At the festival, when he stopped me from leaving and took his place?
When she said she believed in her when she didn't even believe in herself.?
When he went to the scene of another villain's terrorist attack, even deceiving himself as a hero.?
When he confessed that the reason he collapsed the bridge was to save people.?
I don't know exactly when it started.
However, since when? she is...
So she
Dealing with the giant weapon that Ego Stick is riding
Blowing my blonde hair
Only when he was close to death did he admit it..
Since when did she.
I didn't think he was bad..
I don't know exactly why, but.
When I look at him, I don't feel any of the evil feelings that are common in other villains..
Sometimes, the reason he causes terrorism and the reason he is hostile towards himself.
I often thought that there was some other hidden reason that she didn't know about..
Egostick is clearly a villain..
He's clearly a villain, but why?.
Every time she sees him, does she feel a strange sense of kinship inside?.
At what point did it not even occur to him that he was a villain?.
Do you think he's acting like that on purpose?.
She realized at this point.
He said he wanted to believe in ego sticks. no. In fact, I already believed it without even realizing it..
He actually wants to save others, just like himself..
Isn't the whole reason he commits terrorism because there is an unavoidable reason why he has to do it?.
At some point, she was looking for a reason why Ego Stick was not a villain..
That's what she decided the moment she first admitted her feelings for him..
Egostick cannot die like this..
and.
'This time... you owe me one..'
Didn’t he save his life once too?.
Doesn't she owe him a debt?.
okay. He shouldn't die like this, like this..
I will block that missile myself..
After being silent for a moment, she quietly whispered to the association..
"....sorry."
[huh? Stardust? Stardust? what? hey! New day!]
She turned off the earphones in her ears that were connected to the association..
And the moment her decision was made.
The action was quick..
She got off her feet and flew up into the sky..
In the direction where the missile is flying.
***
[What are Starders doing now??]
[What are you running away from????]
[To say he's running away is because he's going up, not to the side. What are you doing???]
[Our stardust is crazy!!!]
[Soaring like a rocket]
"What is he doing now??"
I screamed in absurdity without realizing it..
No, why did you suddenly soar into the sky instead of fighting? Is this a fucking hidden camera??
"It's not like my brother is stressing me out so much that I explode and fly away.?"
"...I don't think so."
I looked up from the cockpit and looked at Stardust continuing to fly into the sky..
no, really.
What the hell is going on???
