I Became The Villain The Hero Is Obsessed With

Ep 91. Another Place, Another Person

Seola is weird these days.

“Don’t you think that Egostic is a real bad guy? Even such an evil guy has a fan cafe, it’s like the end of the world. Right?”

“…Yes.”

It’s already been a few weeks since she stayed at Seola’s house.

Since Seola invited her to come to her house in Busan to relax herself from the continuous stressful hero work these days, she usually stayed and played with Seola.

And, suddenly from one day

Seola started cursing at Egostic so weirdly.

“How many times has he done terrorism? That is so evil. He’s so cold-blooded.”

“……”

Haru somehow felt uncomfortable when she saw her friend suddenly talk bad about Egostic so frequently.

He’s definitely a villain, but…

However, she, a hero, could not defend a villain at all, so she always just nodded quietly.

“That bad guy, I wish I could rip off his limbs and kill him.”

….That’s a bit…

“I think he’s a psychopath who thinks only of himself.”

No, he saved me with his life on the line.

“How can a person cause terrorism against hundreds of people like that? He’s pure evil himself.”

….But no one’s dead yet.

“Also, he always calls you out, Haru. Isn’t it creepy?”

Not really…

Shin Haru just swallowed those answers in her mind, and only nodded.

When she was staring at the TV on the wall of Seola’s house.

[SPECIAL! In-depth Analysis of Egostic!]

Startled.

The sudden news program made Haru’s eyes shake.

And as expected.

“Oh! That bastard!”

Seola’s voice from behind the sofa made her sigh without realizing.

Oh, there we go again.

*

The video itself was just normal content.

As people have seen roughly from the Ego Stream by Egostic, there is a high probability that he will form alliances with other villains in the future.

And the area, where the attack will be terrorized, will definitely be Seoul, and the hero who will deal with him will be Stardus.

There was no problem with the information itself.

The problem was just Seola, who kept swearing at him next to her while holding the remote control.

“……..”

At this point, Haru realized something was strange.

Why is she so obsessed with things about Egostic all of a sudden? For what reason?

It was Seola who showed indifferent attitude, saying, “Don’t worry too much” whenever she discussed with her about Egostic.

Suddenly, it was getting weird since one morning the girl started swearing at him.

And even weirder..

“The reason why Egostic is a wicked villain is because just looking at that, what else would come out is…”

With her sense.

What Seola said, she couldn’t feel the girl’s sincerity.

That was the strangest thing.

“……”

So just like that, Haru was listening to Seola with her eyes quietly sinking a little.

***

A huge house in the valley.

The Big House, also known as the Ego Stream’s headquarters.

I was there, declaring to everyone.

“We are going to Busan.”

“What?”

“You went to Busan alone last time though. We’re going there again?

Choi Se-hee tilted her head as if she didn’t understand.

“Da-in. Why are we going to Busan?”

“To terrorize.”

With a simple answer from me, Haeun asked back as if she didn’t understand.

“An attack in Busan? You’ve always fight with Stardus in Seoul!”

“That’s right. Such a Stardus fan like you does it somewhere else?”

Everyone was looking at me unbelievably.

.

I mean. When did it become my image? It sounds like I’m obsessed with Stardus. Of course, I do live for Stardus, but that doesn’t mean I’m just thinking about Stardus all day long. No, not at all.

Anyway, I coughed up to break the atmosphere.

“Look. Everyone is misunderstanding, I’m not that obsessed with Stardus.”

“Well, Da-in, if you say so, aren’t you even running a Stardus fan cafe?”

Soobin listened to me and made a nonsense point. That’s sharp though. In this case, it’s best to naturally change the subject.

“Hmm. Anyway, in that sense, I decided to terrorize other area where there are other heroes than Stardus this time.”

I decided to do it because Lee Seola was begging me so much, but I also had an intention to reveal that I’m not always obsessed over Stardus. There are too many shippers out there.

And the timing is perfect. Maybe those brat might come to Busan soon, too.

“For that, Choi Se-hee, you are coming with me.”

“Huh? Me?”

Choi Se-hee blinks her eyes, pointing her finger at her eyes. Oh, gosh.

“Of course, you. You’re the only one among us who has superpower, isn’t that obvious?”

“Oh, well, that makes sense though.”

Choi Se-hee nodded her head as if she was convinced. In between her flying ginger hair, Seo-eun’s sulky expression could be seen from behind.

“…I have to hurry up and get to work…”

She muttered something but somehow I got this ominous feeling.

While I glanced at Seo-eun, Choi Se-hee, who was nodding her head, asked as if she suddenly remembered something.

“Wait, but. Didn’t I terrorize last time? I have to do it this time too?”

In her questionable gaze, I shook my finger. It’s not that.

“No, we don’t involve directly in the terrorism this time.”

“Then?”

“Of course, I’ll make someone else do it.”

I said with a grin.

What did I tell you? Ego Stream. Didn’t I say that I was going to create a Villain Union? Then, of course, I have to unite with other villains now.

It’s not exactly a union, in fact, I’m just going to boss them around. Kekeke.

With such evil thought inside, I also told Soobin.

“And Soobin. You know how to drive a boat, right?”

“What? Oh, I don’t know how to drive a big ship, but if it’s a small one, yes, to some extent.”

“I knew it. Soobin, you too. Let’s go with me this time.”

I flicked my fingers. All right, everything’s ready. All I have to do is contact Lee Seola.

“Just next week, we’re leaving for Busan.”

That’s how our next terror attack was decided.

Of course, it’s hard to terrorize right away in Busan, and I will need some time to persuade other villains.

Now, we need to show the world that I’m not a Stardus fan. I’m everyone’s terrorist! Stardus is just a little more special to me, but I don’t only think about Stardus. And especially.

‘I paid off my debt, right?”

…That day, I kept thinking of Shin Haru’s face, who smiled slightly at me and said that, and that is the problem.

I think I need to keep my distance from Stardus for a while.

Let’s get ready for terrorism.

***

“Next week? Good. A yacht? Hah, who do you think I am? I’m Lee Seola from Yoosung Enterprise. I’ll prepare the best one, so don’t worry and just come.”

“Oh, and I’ve been telling Haru bad things about you these days, but I don’t think it’s effective at all though? Just keep doing it? Alright…”

“Then okay, I see. See you then.”

Lee Seola hung up after talking for a long time, she laughed alone in her office.

Several abacus were already bouncing in her head. This time, the recognition, popularity, and the resulting influence for her and her image will be elevated as Egostic will do terror attacks in Busan.

“Perfect.”

After her phone call with him, plans were already being worked out. First of all, Haru said she would go back home in a few days, so there won’t be a matter… She thinks it would be perfect to use the data he sent her.

She felt better after a long time. Something is going according to plan. At this rate, she could achieve her goal in a few years…

Lee Seola then headed home with a lighter heart.

When she arrived home, Haru was eating the mango-flavored ice cream which was in her fridge.

“Haru!”

“Huh? Woah.”

As soon as she got home, Lee Seola hugged Haru who was waving at her with ice cream in her mouth.

Sigh. She felt healed just by laying in Haru’s arms.

“Huh? What’s wrong with you all of a sudden?”

Haru was embarrassed at the sudden hug, but she didn’t push her off and just stood still.

In fact, Seola liked this part about Haru. When she works as a hero, she’s more righteous and stronger than anyone else, then she shouts at the villains, but in real life, Haru is such a quiet kid. She’s like a nice cat without being cranky. She stays quiet without much resistance even if Seola hugs her like this.

Her MBTI is actually an I, so she’s an introverted? With that thought, Seola finally let go of Haru. Haru looked up at Seola with a questionable eye.

Seola just smiled at her.

“Nothing. I’ve been feeling good lately, so I went a little too far.”

“…Really?”

Haru tilted her head.

And just like that, for a whole day, Seola looked ecstatic. The corners of her mouth were slightly raised, her tension was high, and she did not mention it as if he had forgotten to swear at Egostic for the first time in a long time.

And looking at her friend.

Haru somehow felt more and more frustrated.

……She doesn’t know why.

So, the day when Egostic will start terrorizing Busan for the first time is slowly coming.
