A Hero Becomes an Obsessed Villain - Episode 89

EP.89 Hold hands

In front of me is a woman with long light blue hair, who looks like a cold cat. Lee Seol-ah.

There are many different words to refer to her..

First of all, along with Stardust, he is one of only three A-level heroes in Korea. He works under the alias Icicle, and is based in Busan, suppressing villains..

And she has another identity that is just as famous as that of a hero. The very name Lee Seol-ah.

She is a third-generation chaebol and heir to Yuseong Group, the second largest business in Korea..

She, who had long been known to some extent for her superior beauty and the title of third-generation chaebol, attracted a lot of attention by revealing that she would live as a hero after awakening her abilities..

Despite being a third-generation chaebol, he seemed to be doing heroic work for the citizens, and his image was quite good in Busan, where Yuseong Group's headquarters are located..

In particular, because of her unique beauty and smiling face, she is gaining the image of a good third generation chaebol from the public. He's a hero who doesn't need to be, so it's probably natural in the first place..

And this is all a mask.

She pretends to be an innocent woman who doesn't know much about the world, but in reality, she is a dark-hearted person with an ambition to swallow up the Republic of Korea behind the scenes. Hero activities are also used to hide one's true intentions, manage one's image, and create connections with associations..

She was practically in charge of Yuseong Group from behind the scenes, but after her competitor, Haneun Group, committed suicide, she became the de facto head of Korea's leading company..

Afterwards, in the original work, she expands her power by gradually taking over the political world one by one, as the president resigns due to the collapse of Seoul, creating a political vacuum..

And in the end, she takes control of the business world, politics, and even public sentiment, and in the second half of the original work, she becomes the actual ruler of the Republic of Korea, where she can choose the president according to her wishes and change the laws at will..

And she was in front of me right now..

"It's a partnership.."

Lee Seol mutters quietly like that and quietly puts down the tea cup..

Behind her, the sunlight was reflecting off her light blue hair and sparkling..

"It's fun."

Then she laughed, looked at me with cold eyes, and continued speaking..

"The villain is proposing cooperation with me, the hero. Does he think I will accept this??"

She speaks coldly.

At the same time, I feel like the temperature in the room has dropped slightly..

No, considering her abilities, she may actually have gone down..

And at that reaction, I grinned.

"Hey, what are you talking about? Even though we all know each other."

ruler. This is important.

Lee Seol-ah, as seen in the original work, is a very scary girl. A woman with a natural talent and situational judgment that can almost penetrate the other person's psychology..

however. That's when you have more experience and experience..

Now she is still ambitious and clumsy compared to the latter part of the original. At this point, her judgment is probably a bit impaired..

They say I'm still a kid.

So, now is the only time to cook her. Before she was ripe, she was now.

I continued speaking with a relaxed smile still on my face..

"I know for sure who is behind Yusung Group's expansionist moves, so why are you talking like that? I'm not trying to disturb you, I just want to have an amicable relationship where we walk the same path together. So, let's say we're comrades.."

After saying that, I lifted my hand and telekinetically lifted the empty teacup and kettle next to me, and poured a cup of coffee in front of me. And then I drank it. It's delicious.

Lee Seol-ah, who unconsciously twitched her eyebrows at the sight of me showing the comfort of my own home, quickly regained her composure and spoke coldly to me..

"I don't know what you know about me. How can you help me in the first place? This is absurd.."

Summary: Explain how you can help me.

I smiled at her again.

"There are many things I can do for you. Well, the list is endless.."

It would be a bit unseemly to brag about that in front of others.?

I quietly took out the USB from my pocket and threw it to Seol-ah Lee..

When a black object suddenly flew towards her, she flinched slightly but snatched it out of the air..

When she held the USB in her hand and looked at me as if asking what it was, I shrugged my shoulders and opened my mouth..

"It seems like you're busy these days with merging other companies one by one and getting involved with the political world... Well, I've given you something that may be of some help. I hope you think of it as my small sincerity.."

I said that and just got up. When I suddenly raised her body, she looked at me as if asking me what I was doing..

"I'll come back in a week. I hope you'll accept my offer by then.."

"hey? What is this."

"See you later then."

I just said what I had to say and wrapped myself in a cloak..

Villain special. Just say what you have to say and disappear.

I looked at her one last time before teleporting away and disappearing..

She looks at me with light blue hair and slightly sharp cat-like eyes..

Looking at her looking much younger than in the latter half of the original, I thought to myself,.

okay. Really, I wish you would accept it. Cooperation.

I was debating whether to deal with you or not and decided to do it, but at least this should help..

As I gazed into her green eyes one last time, I teleported away and disappeared..

Ah, now I have to go up to Seoul again..

It's so fucking annoying.

***

"ha... "

Where the ego stick left.

In front of him, Lee Seol-ah let out a breath..

"under. No really, what is it?......"

It was only after he left that she took the breath she had been holding..

In fact, although she didn't show it, she really thought her heart was dropping. My back is wet with cold sweat.

I really had no idea that the ego-stick, villain would suddenly appear in front of me. Especially since he was always looking for Stardust in the first place..

And, when he showed that he knew his plan, I thought it really gave me goosebumps. how? The information must have been hidden thoroughly, really thoroughly.?

When I saw his eyes that seemed to pierce through anything, I was nervous without knowing it, but I somehow succeeded in pretending to be relaxed..

Ego stick. She had some guesses about him..

Seol-ah Lee, ever since she was born, she has had the talent to guess what other people are thinking. With her natural intelligence and wit, she can almost control the hearts of others..

And according to her guess, Egostick initially acted as a villain, but had no hostility towards the world. This also applies to Stardust, a hero. Rather, he pretends to be a villain and acts like a hero..

And through the series of events that occurred and his actions, she was half convinced. Egoistic, he is a kind of anti-hero. very talented.

And, what is the possibility of him appearing in front of me? He didn't hit that high. Yes, no matter how talented he is, I don't think he knows that much.?

And today, Seol-ah Lee had no choice but to admit it. He knew he had underestimated him. He knew everything about her, she knew that she knew right through him, and she even offered her cooperation..

And when she asked him what he could do for her, he threw her a USB stick and disappeared. He just said what he had to say and left..

"Haha... what is it really?...."

What on earth does he want from himself? Why did you approach me??

Ego stick to begin with. He was a very bad person when he became an enemy..

Egoistic, she had seen through him with insight from the beginning. He pretends to be a villain, but in reality, paradoxically, he resembles a hero. And judging by her innate sense of humor, his behavior seemed to have some connection to Stardust. I'm not sure of the detailed reason..

There were several reasons to be wary of him..

Overwhelming information power that I don't know where it came from, overwhelming financial power that I don't know where it came from, and influence at a level that cannot be ignored. I don't know how, but he has formed a kind of fandom, and not only is the fandom large, but he boasts an incredible level of loyalty that unconditionally believes anything he says. No, in the first place, public opinion about ego sticks is generally good even among the general public..

In other words, as an egotic individual, he is the most influential person in Korea. You probably don't know because you usually wear a mask and laugh, but in some ways, it's a very dangerous and scary being..

However, in her judgment, there is no level of hostility, and it does not seem like there are many things to do with her, so she is not overly wary. She kept a close eye, but that's all.

But then he suddenly appeared in front of me..

There's a rather strange story about cooperation....

"ha...."

Lee Seol-ah’s head became complicated..

How on earth does he know about his ambitions, and what is it about cooperation? Is it a trap??

Especially the last look before he disappeared. Her body trembled slightly as she thought of his cold gaze looking down at her, as if her continued heartless laughter was a lie on her part..

....It's not really a trap?

In fact, unless he is hostile to her, she has no particular reason to reject him. Cooperation with him is a plus, not a minus..

....Whether he's truly willing to cooperate with me or not, I'll find out when I open this..

She looked at the small USB in her hand..

...If you plug this in, you probably won't get hacked.?

"...."

Hey, could it be so?

Although she thought it was useless to worry, she plugged it into the subcomputer just in case..

What on earth is in it?.

Although she was nervous, she opened the USB. In it...

"...uh?"

There were numerous files recording corruption and loopholes of other competitors..

From inside information to confidential documents and personal corruption..

These documents can be used in so many ways..

Her eyes sparkled slightly as she looked at them one by one..

With these, things related to mergers and acquisitions, which she has been struggling with these days, can proceed much, much faster..

Already, countless ways to exploit other companies using this information were appearing in her mind all the time..

"...He was a very nice person.."

ego stick.

Now that I see it, it seems like he really wants to help her. I don't mean to threaten you. The person giving her this can't be her enemy. then.

Her happiness circuit suddenly started to run due to the unexpected gift..

Judging by my smart and smart self, I think Egostick is a useful person who really wants to cooperate with her..

Then, of course.

There's no reason to reject him, right??

***

a week later.

"So, have you considered my suggestion??"

"yes. Well, there's nothing we can't do together.."

So the two held hands.

I, Egostick, embrace the dark side of the future of running the company with the largest market capitalization in Korea..

'You're lucky..'

You caught me in one go.
