I Became The Villain The Hero Is Obsessed With

Chapter 372:

"No!!! Why the hell not! I'm definitely with you….!"

-Kwagwagwagwagwang

~The city center of Seoul~

I was there, beheading a villain who wouldn't listen to me, the original's signature insane serial killer, The Reaper.

I gave him a chance to rehabilitate himself in Cathedral, but the fool didn't listen.

As such, it's only right that he should be dealt with, right? Mm-hmm. It was inevitable.

*

[?????? ???]

[Hey, Teacher Reaper has something to say~]

[Oh, the answer was preordained.]

[Listen to the kid, please]

[Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh]

[LOL Oh, if he teased us he should have told us sooner~]

[That was the most villainous thing he’s done lately]

*

…Let's edit the chat and the video later.

I silently thought to myself, breaking into a small cold sweat.

No, how can I accept him? He's a crazy guy who kills and tortures people because he's bored.

Anyway, for now, let's focus on dealing with him.

I did my best to immobilize him with telekinesis, throwing every weapon I had at him.

"Aaaaahhhh!!!"

"…Hey, Ego. Do you want some help?"

"…..Hold on, I'll do what I can."

There was a slight problem: He didn't die.

Perhaps due to the enhancement of his body from his Beastification ability, he seemed to take the firepower of all the guns I'd gathered with a lot of pain.

So much so that Choi Se-hee, who had followed me and watched from behind, whispered to me.

I'm not going to be able to kill him with weapons.

With that neat judgment call, I quickly stopped all the guns with my left hand, chuckled, and raised my right hand.

"Here we go. Let's do this."

With that, I raised my hand and slammed it down.

With that, the Reaper's body was lifted into the air then tumbled back to the ground.

I kept the smile on my face and continued to flick my hand, telekinetically slamming him into building after building.

Now that's what a powerhouse should taste like…! I had forgotten that I had telekinesis until now.

Of course, there's the problem that my stamina is shrinking while I'm doing this…I'm going to go home and puke my guts out.

*

[Oh Egostic, why are you so thin???]

[Kya thanks to inflation or something, I see Mango is taking the lead, I can close my eyes in peace now…]

[Is this the true colors of the Cathedral cadre…]

[The chatters are like parents who spoon-feed their kids after they're out of school]

*

…After attacking with such excitement, I calmed down a bit when I realized that the chat was surprised.

Okay. That's enough.

Let's ask Se-hee to take care of the rest.

"That's it…"

I said to her behind me, pointing to the (former) serial killer lying in the street in a pasty state.

"Ms. Electra. Finish him off."

"Okay." f𝚛ee𝐰𝗲𝐛n𝐨v𝚎𝗹.com

I said, and she walked away, chuckling.

As soon as the words were out of her mouth, she stretched out her hand.

-Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

"Kwahhhhhhhh!"

She released a thick bolt of lightning, like a missile being dropped…there was a flash of blue light, and then he was gone, reduced to ashes.

The Reaper, who had slaughtered tens of thousands of people in the original, is gone now.

I felt like a huge burden had been lifted off my shoulders.

"Phew…! I've taken care of the one who doesn't follow the new order of things. If there are any other villains watching this, I'd appreciate it if you could come to me first so I don't have to come to you. Thank you!"

With that, I smiled brightly and flicked a baton at the camera, then flapped my cloak and turned to leave.

…And then, there it was.

"…Egostic?"

She had come just as I was about to leave.

The voice was all too familiar, and as I turned around, I saw her.

Stardus descended from the sky, her blonde hair flowing, and stood in front of me.

…There's a bit of blood on her suit, so she must have been late taking down another villain earlier.

*

[Hmph]

[Enters the room late]

[This is really starting now!!!]

[Heh]

*

"…What is it?"

And at her appearance, Choi Se-hee, who was next to me, became very wary and started to poke at Stardus.

Of course, Stardus didn't mind, and just looked at me with a puzzled gaze.

She was probably wondering why I suddenly stepped forward, but when she arrived at the scene and saw the other villain lying on the ground, she seemed to understand the situation. I was just doing my usual boss-hunting behavior again.

…She looked at the (ex-)Reaper lying on the ground with a slightly confused look, and then flashed me a brief smile that only I could see.

She then returned to her normal expression, and asked me.

"Egostic. What the hell did you do?"

"Haha! I was trying to do some casting, but he refused, so I made him an example."

"…Trash."

That's right, we were playing tiki-taka.

"Ha! What did you say to our Egostic? That's ridiculous."

…Suddenly, Choi Se-hee pulled me toward her and said that as if to protect me.

Stardus' face hardened when she realized that I was stuck with Choi Se-hee for a moment.

…But then she realized what she was thinking, and she relaxed her expression and smiled as she replied.

"Yes, I apologize for what I said to ‘you', Egostic."

"…What's wrong?"

Choi Se-hee frowned, puzzled by Stardus' leisurely smile, expecting her to harden her expression or become angry.

Seeing that she was looking up at me and gesturing for me to leave quickly, I nodded and turned back to Stardus.

"Well, that's too bad, we still have a lot of work to do, so if you'll excuse me…!"

"…"

I turned off the camera, and Choi Se-hee turned her head away while Stardus gave me a little smirk and a goodbye look.

"…"

I nodded slightly, and with that, we parted ways.

…No, I'm going to get caught if I really mess this up, I hope you don't mind…

***

After taking care of the Reaper, I was able to go home with a lighter heart.

There is a saying that there is an inner room and an outer room.

You have to be strong inside to be strong outside. Korea is my home, and I need to take care of things here so that I can be active abroad.

Even though I've become an officer of Cathedral, there are many things I must do to prevent the destruction of the world… I had to stop the destruction of Seoul first, and I did.

And now that the inner chamber had been secured, it was time to start working outside.

"…Hah."

I sighed as I looked at the calendar.

The Sun God's would descend to destroy the world but until then, I had to find a way to stop the Sun God and prevent the destruction of the world.

It's the beginning of Phase 4, and a lot of time has passed.

How much time is left before the Sun God descends?

"A year."

Yes.

One year.

About a year until the Sun God descends and fulfills the original's bed ending: the destruction of the world.

It seems like a long time, but in the end, it's a very short time.

Until then…I had to prepare to stop him.

‘…Though, of course, Stardus will do the actual defeating.’

There are things that must be done before that.

The defeat is not the end of the story. Before that, I must stop the Sun God from destroying the world, for the moment he descends, he will do everything in his power to destroy it as quickly as possible, like a speedrunner.

In order for that to happen changing Celeste's mind was a top priority.

‘…Let's see. How long until the next Cathedral?’

I muttered, looking at the calendar.

Cathedral Conference. To be precise, now is the time for the cathedral to expand and transform into an executive meeting.

From now on, my every action would directly affect the future, and I would have the power to change the world.

Sun God must die.

I must make him die.

Therefore, I must begin my persuasion to convince others to follow my ideals.

With that serious thought, I went into the living room to think about the agenda I would present at the next Cathedral meeting.

That's when I stepped up to speak to everyone.

[Shock! Stardus X Egostic Love Affair Reignited! This time for real! What is that smirk on Stardus' face!!!]

…In the living room, where everyone was gathered, the TV was showing something like that.

I froze in my tracks.

"Ha! What did they just say? I can't believe it."

Seeing that, Seo-Eun laughed, reached for the remote, and changed the channel.

Then, when she saw me, she opened her mouth as if she thought it was funny.

"Ha, there's a lot of fake news these days, Da-in. You're dating Stardus. Phew. What kind of nonsense are they making up, right?"

"…Haha, yeah. Funny."

…Just as I was replying in the calmest possible tone, Seo-Eun smiled as she lay down next to me and muttered.

"So. If Da-in really did that, do you think you'd be able to stand up like this right now?"

"That's right, hahaha!"

…Looking at them laughing like that I broke out in a cold sweat, silently and secretly.

Maybe that's not the only thing I have to worry about…
