I Became The Villain The Hero Is Obsessed With

Chapter 341: Cruising

Egostic.

When I think about it, it’s been quite a while since I’ve been working as a villain under that nickname.

It’s been almost five years already…

‘That’s a long time.’

Actually, it’s been a long time.

Originally, this world was not designed for a villain to be active for a long time. As soon as the hero catches him, he’ll retire.

Especially in this [Stardust!] universe, there’s so much power inflation. In fact, all the villains from the early days of the comic were pushed aside by the subsequent villains and Stardus’ power inflation, so the A-list villain Crocodile Man, who used to turn into a crocodile man in the early days of my career, was a very strong villain, but now, if you look at our Halo, who shoots angelic death beams…

Anyway, in conclusion, it is rare for a villain to be active for a long time without being caught. In particular, there are some truly evil villains that are not caught for a long time in the original but I took care them in advance. Weapon Maker, Scream Maker, that sort of thing.

Anyway, the point I’m trying to make is that I happen to be the only villain in this world who’s been around for so long.

…So, as it turns out, I’ve gotten a few people lamenting my retirement.

[I think this is going to be my last attack, I think this is going to be my last attack, I think this is going to be my last attack, I think this is going to be my last attack.]

[I think this will be my last attack. I think this will be my last attack. I think this will be my last attack. I think this will be my last attack. I think this will be my last attack. I think this will be my last attack. I think this will be my last attack. I think this will be my last attack. I think this will be my last attack. I think this will be my last attack. I think this will be my last attack. You won’t be able to point the finger at me in the future. Goodbye, Stardus.]

Anyway, I think this will be my last bit of fun.

You’re all grown up, you don’t need to play with me anymore.

I probably won’t be referring to you in the future.

Goodbye, Stardus.

[This is not real this is not real this is not real this is not real]

[Collective PTSD ON]

[Shit who the fuck are the people who upvoted this shit]

[Why is this shit in the top posts?]

[I was so bummed when I first heard this, and he only said it to Stardus rather than to the viewers]

[He abandoned the mango group!!!]

ㄴ[Mango, who was Stardus pure love until the end… Of course, then he abandoned Stardus too…]

[It’s been 3 weeks now, isn’t it? Give it a couple months and I’ll forget all about it… Who’s Egostic?]

[ㄴ[Egostic’s terror intervals are basically 3+ months, so everyone is used to waiting…]

[I’m saying Mangostick already ruined everything]

ㄴ[problem is that he won’t come even after 3 months]

[………]

The people who regretted my retirement were, um, a bit much…

Most of the fan cafe posts were like that.

First denial that I retired, then anger, then trying to negotiate if I could terrorize them once every six months, and finally depression.

…The problem is that once you accept it, it doesn’t matter, and then you go back to the beginning and repeat the process. No, come on, people.

Of course, there was an unexpected upside to my retirement.

I’ve gotten a lot of people to stop thinking I’m some kind of S-class hero and start recognizing me as a villain…!

[Egotistic <<<< If you’re a real S-class ‘villain’, you’re an asshole…]

Seeing how he manipulates the emotions of tens of millions of Korean citizens, he must have been a villain…

=[Comment]=

[I’m feeling the pain of heartbreak…]

[Korea’s human seawall, Mango, retired? This is a disaster]

[But there’s still Stardus]

[If there was no Stardus, I would have to abandon the country and run away…]

[I’m sad that I can’t see the Egostic Terrorism broadcast for safety and stuff… It was the highlight of my life]

[I’m sad that I won’t be able to see Egostic Terrorist Broadcast…It was my life’s crack]

[So why did Mango retire?]

ㄴ[Isn’t it because of the fight with Stardust? This is a real possibility]

ㄴ[It’s not like that… It looks like he’s preparing something]

[Honestly, Stardus is out of her mind… The person who always helped her suddenly disappeared]

*

…Well, is that a good thing…?

Anyway, I sighed and looked at my fan cafe in disbelief as Seo-Eun giggled.

“No…What’s wrong with those people?”

“I think I know why. Your fancafe is still the number one fancafe right now, so it’ll probably take a while for people to get over it.”

It was Seo-eun, sitting on a beanbag, facing me with her face covered in sepals, smiling with a big smile on her face.

…Seo-eun, who is in charge of technology and information at Egostream, and who has always liked to watch my fan cafe.

After showing it to me, Seo-eun clapped her hands, operated the remote control, and said.

“That’s right, Da-in. Do you know what your fans are doing these days?”

“What are they doing?”

I asked, scratching my head, as the screen changed before my eyes.

There was a post on it.

[Mangostream’s 4th regular broadcasting announcement]

Thank you.]

[Ah, that’s why I’m watching it over the course of a week.]

ㄴ[After all, what is faith!!!!!]

[This is madness because they memorized all the lines when the main scene comes out.]

[The real madness is the number of viewers, what is this 10000 units?]

[This is the point of the show where all the nostalgic viewers come back to reality and have a seizure in the chat when he announces his retirement]

[Life is a tragedy up close but a comedy from afar…]

[Why there are only non-boring kids in the comments now? Already most of the mangodans are not here because they went to watch the 3rd season…]

“What is this?”

“That’s because…”

What Seo-Eun told me was ridiculous.

That is, people were replaying the terrorist videos I had broadcasted up to this point. They said it was because I retired and didn’t update new terrorist videos…

“Speaking of which, would you like to take a look?”

Seo-eun fiddled with the remote control, and a new video appeared.

When I looked at it, it was a channel that was playing a video of my broadcast.

Looking at the scene on the screen, I realized that it was during the battle with the Moonlight Church.

The voice of the crazed Moon Cultist was heard in the video.

[Yeah…The traitor knows. There’s no way you can survive. Just despair, despair, despair, forever…in torment…In the afterlife!]

And then, the moment the Stardus moved her arm the chat window began to go crazy.

*

[Wait!]

[Wait~]

[Wait!]

[Wait]

[Stardus stretches out her arms, I was nervous]

[Stardus is calling. Wait a minute]

[Hey, hey, hey]

[fubberfubberfubberfubberfubberfubber]

[3 seconds before Stardus screams]

*

After the chat window is finished Stardus’ voice comes in later.

[….wait!]

After that cultist magic bullets began to rain down.

“…..”

Watching that, I was dumbfounded.

…No, why are you memorizing that?

Anyway, the chat room was in the midst of the greatest memorization contest in the world.

“Da-in, aren’t they funny? Phew… I feel sorry for them, so why don’t you let them know how we’re doing and do SNS like I said, okay?”

While listening to Seo-eun talking to me like that I was staring at Stardus’ face on the screen.

‘…Stardus.’

I wonder what she’s doing these days.

The headquarters of the Korean Hero Association.

“…Stardus…here’s the, uh, approval paperwork…”

“Yes. Leave it there.”

“Yes, yes…!”

The woman who answered so hastily, glanced at Stardus smiling face, sighed quietly, and walked out of the office.

“Heh…I hope you’re okay, Stardus…’

Stardus didn’t threaten her or say anything.

On the contrary, she smiled at her reassuringly.

It was just…

‘…Stardus, are you sure you’re not in trouble…?’

“Ha…”

That’s it, it’s the man.

With that thought, the association employee sighed and walked down the hallway.

S-class hero, Stardus had a smile that could break at any moment.

Her recent behavior, seemingly precarious, was the Association’s biggest concern at the moment…
