I Became The Villain The Hero Is Obsessed With

Ep.184 – The Devil

The original comic.

The original comic that I’ve been following as a guide while living in this world.

This world is based on the original comic, and I know the future of this world through it.

In other words, what happened in the original story almost always happens.

Of course, there is one difference between the original and this world.

It’s that there’s a character named Egostic who didn’t exist in the original. Yeah. I’m the only difference between the original and the world. Other than that, nothing.

In other words, the conclusion is what happens in the original, time period. Things that I didn’t touch separately mean that they all go according to the original. Villain first appeared in the original by this time? Then it will appear exactly at this time in this world. In particular, overseas, where my influence is not at all, flows perfectly as I saw in the original.

…However, of course, sometimes things happen differently from the original, whether it’s a butterfly effect or something because of what I caused. Whether the crocodile villain of the past caused the terrorist attack earlier than expected, or Wolgwanggyo used the monster for the final match in advance or something like that.

So since then, when I make plans based on the original, I always prepare for the possibility that it will not go according to the original. Of course, there are a few things that will happen, so I just sketch it roughly. Of course, everything goes according to Plan A.

And now.

I’m on the verge of using the rough plan B and C.

The room with a full view of the building’s CTV screen, which was encroached by the darkness.

I was deeply troubled there, watching Stardus going underground without end.

“No… You can’t do that!”

[What’s wrong?. I think she’s going down excitedly.]

The jellyfish robot with a camera wriggled at the screen and delivered Seo-eun’s words.

Unlike Seo-eun’s response, who didn’t know what the problem was, I, who knew the future roughly, was taking this seriously.

This event cannot be solved in one day like that.

To be exact, Stardus struggles for almost a week, and every time she takes a break at the association and comes back, she has to go to the room with the final boss only after she breaks down all the devil-generating devices that have fallen around her.

The reality is that it is only possible to deal with it when it weakens the power of the villain who is sealing herself.

But now, Stardus are heading down blindly.

Gosh, you didn’t do that in the original. What’s going on…?

Watching the whole scene with a miserable heart, I soon regained consciousness and began to think seriously.

…Best turns around and goes back to society before she arrives in the room where the final boss, the villain, is.

But it seemed a little less likely, given how well she was now striding to the route to where the final boss was.

In other words, she has to move under the worst assumption that she will go down to where Demonz is today.

And so, what are the odds that Stardus will fight Demonz and win?

‘…It’s going to be hard though.’

No matter how much Stardus is stronger than the original, the situation itself is worse than the original.

In the original comic, Demonz weakened her strength as all the other Demonz, who were nutrients, collapsed, and the seal was not even half released, weakening to about half of her original ability. But even that, the original Stardus couldn’t win, and eventually, a few Demonz escaped.

On top of that, the current Stardus are tired of continuous fights. She’s just heading down without taking any rest. I don’t know what the hell is wrong with her. Especially considering that those dark tentacles are constantly whispering negative thoughts as she goes down. I don’t think she’ll be feeling very well. I’m just saying, can she fight like that?

But of course, this is just my thought.

Stardus may actually defeat that final boss. She may grow further in this fight.

Is it okay for me to stop it?

“….”

On one side of the ground floor of the devil.

I seriously pondered.

Should I teleport to the final boss’s room with my Holy-Cross now and end this division with a stab in the sleeping man’s heart.

Or just trust Stardus, and observe.

And after thinking for a bit, I made a decision.

Okay. Let’s trust her for now.

I’ve been talking about myself as an archenemy of Stardus, should I not be rooting for my static hero?

Of course, I think she’s going to lose…

Still, in the process of fighting, she can gain enlightenment.

Having thought that far, I decided not to step forward and stay still for now. Yeah, and maybe Stardus can turn her mind around and go back to the association.

But still, I have to prepare it in advance.

Get ready to step up.

As I got up, I said to Seo-eun.

“Seo-eun, can you show this on the screen where Stardus is on? Connecting with that jellyfish machine.”

[Uh… I’ll try!]

After that, I heard some typing sound.

Soon, a screen of Stardus began to appear from my masked eyes.

All right, so you can see at a glance if Stardus are okay. Good.

Then, let’s go do what we have to do in advance.

I took the holy-cross and told Seo-eun.

“Seo-eun, I’m going to stop by home again right now?”

[Huh? Why?]

“I thought I might have to step up. Let’s get all my holy bombs and holy canons in advance.”

[Oh… It should be somewhere in the storage room. I’ll be looking for it!]

After hearing Seo-eun’s answer, I turned my back and went out again.

…And if I do well, I’ll meet Stardus again today. Maybe I should step up.

“Okay, well. I can take this opportunity to recover my image that I lost from Stardus last time.”

I decided to think positively.

Villain that people are afraid of. To be that you need to prove yourself to some extent.

In other words, if Stardus is losing to Demonz, if I turn on the broadcast, break in and kill him instead of Stardus… Wouldn’t it prove roughly how strong I am? It’s an excuse for stepping up. You can think about it in moderation.

Actually, I’m not strong, it’s just that I have a weapon that is a weakness for Demonz, but I decided to let this slide. People don’t know anyway.

So I came back home for a bit, rearranged, and headed back to the devil’s castle.

So after sunset, just as I arrived.

BOOOOOOOOM-.

[Who are you to dare waking me up——!!!!!!]

With the sound of thunder, red clouds began to flock to the demonized trading center.

Soon, something, with a huge body with the devilish visuals in those fantasy games, popped out, literally smashing the ceiling of the building with a red spear.

“Hmm… So this is how it turned out.”

Black fog swarming, lightning strikes from the sky, and rising clouds of dust. The sound of explosion.

Watching the Trade Center in real time, I was watching on one knee from a nearby building.

It’s finally unsealed. I was expecting it, but it’s embarrassing to see it unraveled in less than a day.

But it’s been released in a day. Isn’t this a short time where it’s hard to save energy?

Maybe, there’s a possibility.

And then Stardus popped out of the basement after a while.

Demonz, who were angrily destroying nearby buildings with huge red spears. To be precise, having succeeded in making incomplete use of the ability to demonize, it shouted at Stardus with red eyes.

[Are you the one who woke this body up?——!!!]

[How dare you ruin my body plan…]

[I’ll send you to hell–!]

What a crybaby.

He was planning to gather strength and turn the entire South Korea into a devildom, but as it was wrecked, he turned furious.

…But the real Stardus is a lot stronger than before. I was really worried, but she pierced it in a day.

[[Breaking news] The Association issues a level 1 warning near the Trade Center]

[[Picture] Villain in the shape of a demon… Professionals, the highest level of the S-class. We have to pray.]

[[Live video] Stardus fighting against the villain with demon-like appearance… If she loses, we might end up in danger]

*

[We’re fucked. We’re fucked. We’re fucked]

[I live in Seoul. What the hell is that? Why is there a lightning strike in the dry sky hahahahaha]

[Shit. Why do they keep appearing in this small country? Hahahaha. Someone must purposely plan to destroy Korea…]

[I trust Stardus. Please, my stardust… Please win once…]

Looking at the article notifications and the broadcasting company chat window, it seems that everyone is going crazy over the sudden commotion.

Hmm. His visual is really on another level. He looks like the ultimate villain of the original. He’s actually just a mid-boss villain that appears before Wolgwanggyo.

Contrary to my appreciation, the surrounding area was already eroding. Black tentacles creeping up to the ground. A view that our Behemoth would definitely love as it thinks it’s getting new friends.

[…Da-in, are you sure this is okay? He looks too strong though? I’m worried about you, not Stardus…]

“Don’t worry, Seo-eun. I can’t get hurt right now.”

I reassured the anxious Seo-eun. He has a certain weakness, so if we use that, even Ha-yul, who is a regular person, and Cha-yoon, her younger brother, can knock him down if they do well.

But I don’t think it’s going to be easy to win without that… Still, just in case!

So I stood on the roof and watched the battle.

He’s giving off a lot of pressure even here. And Stardus, who stood up to it with her yellow hair flying,

Black, red, and yellow lights embroidered the dark night sky.

As I watched it, my face slowly stiffened.

Anyone can tell that Stardus is being pushed back.

…Tsk. Is it really not okay?

Seeing her so beaten and rolling again, I got up from my seat, murmuring to myself. I think I’ll have to step up.

And, the moment I thought so.

“…What?”

Flash-

[Argggggggghhhhhh——!!!]

Stardus clenched her teeth and punched him from afar.

It was the first time I heard the guy scream.

For a moment, as if a flash had burst in the dark night sky, the night sky was brightened with yellow light.

Booooooooom. With the sound of something being smashed, Demonz, aka the Devil, flew back.

Boom. Boom. Boom.

Buildings were smashed by him.

“What is it? What is it?”

Seeing the whole scene, I momentarily pulled myself forward, talking to myself.

I took a closer look, in a more visible view.

As if hit by huge energy, buildings flying in a straight line, and the Devil stuck in the corner over there.

Okay.

Our Stardus blasted that hard-trained Devil.

[Wow…]

[What was that?]

[Stardust! Stardust! Stardust! Stardust! Stardust!]

[This is a hero, this is a knight hahahaha]

Seeing the linked chat window noisy with hope, I almost cried and applauded without realizing it. That’s right. I’ve always trusted her! Yes, this is my Stardus!

But the chat window, which was so active, didn’t last long.

[Oh, fuck. I’m sad]

This is because the fallen devil staggered and rose again with a red spear.

On the other hand, our Stardus was barely breathing with her back on one side, perhaps because she ran out of energy in the last blow.

Towards Stardus who looked so helpless, the Devil took a step closer.

As the viewers’ anxiety reached its peak.

I smiled, quietly raising my mask.

“Yes… Stardus. Good job. I’ll take care of the rest.”

Piggy back on someone’s work. A truly vicious villainous act. Of course everyone will be terrified…!

Roughly judged, I took the camera, took the holy weapon, and jumped straight from the roof of the building.

Alright. Hero’s time is up.

From now on, it’s villain time.

“Ta-da! Hello, it’s Egostic!”
