The Crazy Villain Regains His Sanity

Episode 99

“······.”

There was a cold silence between me and Gunji.

In the first place, the line was crossed over there. Mentions of gifts among awakened people are known as examples. As it clearly reveals one’s power, it has become a kind of taboo.

But you ask for that?

Let’s give it a try.

I know now too.

That he made the suggestion not for operational purposes but as an unpleasant signal. In that case, there would be no reason to respond to that.

What can you do if you tell me anyway?

Just by looking at him, he doesn’t look like he has that much skill.

“Are you saying you won’t cooperate for the operation?”

“Even if we cooperate, are you willing to make it successful? “That’s why I came.”

“······.”

I could feel that while he was trying to be polite, he was only leaving out what was absolutely necessary.

“Did I say something wrong?”

Incompetent people speak louder than their actions. If you don’t want to hear this, why not get results? From what I’ve looked into, Gunji is excellent in defensive battles, but doesn’t show much power in offense.

A typical gift-giving superhuman. You cannot rise to a higher level by being swayed by gifts.

When you look at this guy, your eyes widen and you radiate murderous spirit. Are you claiming that this is your home ground?

I was about to open my mouth again and say some bullshit, so I used my hand first.

“What…!”

Gunji was startled and crossed his hands. The mine struck like a thunderbolt, but failed to penetrate inside Gunji’s body and bounced off.

This is the effectiveness of the defense gift. Mines were fired and attacked to the left, right, and back, but the solidity was maintained.

To me, it was just a hard punching bag.

Although the army successfully defended itself, it could not help but shake the balance. After distracting him with a series of attacks, he came closer and kicked his leg, causing his balance to fall and leaving him defenseless in front of my hands.

My outstretched hand hit his shoulder.

puck!

But my mine couldn’t penetrate the translucent membrane surrounding it. The color is getting darker, and it seems like the defense increases as it gets darker.

Is this why it is called a guardian deity? In the end, it is just a strengthening of the sandbag.

Let’s see how long we can last.

puck! Plop! Burbubbuk!

In an instant, more than a dozen mines struck the defense shield. The defense shield, which was as strong as an iron fortress, rapidly cracked and shattered in front of the mines that rained down for a split second.

In the meantime, the military stands in balance, but it is meaningless. If you want to apologize, do so in the afterlife.

“for a moment!”

Tsuyoshi, who had been watching, intervened as my hand crushed his wrist and was about to grab his neck.

The long blade separated me and Gunji.

If it had been a wide open space, I would have avoided it and dug in, but the drawback was that the conference room space was narrow.

I stepped back without hesitation.

Quagwagwang!

The table and chair were caught in the force and shattered into pieces.

I fixed my gaze on Tsuyoshi. I’ve built a decent relationship, but that’s no reason not to kill him.

What Lee Se-hee said comes to mind.

It is said that many superhumans who come to foreign countries die from ‘unforeseen accidents.’

Is that why you are doing this now?

To gain a reason to kill me?

It’s a foolish choice. I have more experience than any other villain when it comes to killing someone and escaping. Am I the only one who has had tens of thousands of people mobilized multiple times to kill a single villain? There is also a way to kill everything and swim back home.

If you reveal your true feelings, I should join in.

It was then.

Tsuyoshi put down his sword and raised both hands, showing that he had no intention of resisting.

“sorry. Gunji was very emotional because he lost his beloved younger brother to the League. “I hope you can forgive me with a generous heart, as it was a rude action to get the league back as quickly as possible.”

“······.”

Now you come?

Should I pretend not to know and kill him and remain unmoved?

…I thought so, but there was no justification.

He threw away his weapon, apologized, and tried to talk, but killing him seemed a bit difficult.

The fight that took place was also a bit weak.

The cause was provided by Gunji, but it was weak in finishing it in the direction I wanted.

“thank you.”

Tsuyoshi expressed his gratitude when I relaxed my combat stance, then turned his head and raised his voice to Kunji in Japanese. The military did not give up and shouted. Then, I was excluded and the two Japanese superhumans continued to argue.

After arguing for a while, Gunji finally gave up and stepped back, and Tsuyoshi sighed and bowed his head to me.

“Thank you for your understanding.”

“······.”

Since he apologized in such a low tone, it was difficult not to accept it.

Gunji made eye contact with me and turned his head.

I don’t like it.

However, it was difficult to ignore Tsuyoshi, who put aside his pride and repeatedly apologized.

“I accept your apology.”

“thank you!”

The atmosphere had completely cooled down, so I backed off without insisting any further. Sighs of relief could be heard from all directions. I think a lot of people were surprised that there would be a collision.

Tsuyoshi hurriedly walked up to Kunji and grabbed him. As I was leaving the place, I felt the gaze directed at me was very disrespectful.

Should we take care of it first before a problem occurs?

If you try to trick me one more time, I’ll have to clean it up.

* * *

“Why on earth are you doing this!”

Tsuyoshi, who had moved from his seat, raised his voice uncharacteristically.

I know that Gunji hates Choi Jun-ho. However, he was a person who knew how to manage his facial expressions depending on the situation. There was no reason to give them an excuse to clash like this.

“This guy is a villain disguised as a superman. “We are being helped by the villain.”

“That’s your opinion. Choi Jun-ho is currently the best superman in Korea and is recognized internationally. “Why are you trying to make things so difficult!”

“Is that really enough?”

“what?”

“Do you think it would be okay to resolve the situation with Choi Jun-ho’s help? It’s happening in Japan. “Is the situation so urgent that we desperately need Choi Jun-ho’s power?”

“······.”

Tsuyoshi closed his mouth. What Gunji said was something he had been thinking about for a long time.

But it was decided from above. It is clear that Choi Jun-ho’s skills are of great help.

“So what do you want to do?”

“Let us solve it.”

“Are you saying we should reject the cabinet’s instructions now?”

“The idea is not to reject it, but to resolve it through preemptive measures. If you show us what we can solve without Choi Jun-ho’s help, we won’t repeat the same mistake. Tsuyoshi, I will come forward even if you don’t.”

Gunji’s will was firm.

Tsuyoshi sighed at the sight of his strong friend. I knew that it would be difficult to go back on my decision because I am a friend who never changes his mind once he makes it.

But even if it is reckless, it is too reckless. Gunji’s gift was suitable for defensive warfare, but not for attacking somewhere.

“No matter what, you can’t pass.”

“Tsuyoshi!”

“Keep listening to me. As you said, I agree with the opinion that we should take the lead in resolving the situation. “Let’s give Choi Jun-ho the role of killing small children on the outskirts.”

“······.”

“If you don’t accept this, I will talk to the cabinet. “You will fall for it.”

“okay. Do as you say. “Do you have any ideas in mind?”

“there is.”

The conversation between the two continued for a long time.

* * *

About an hour has passed since the two left.

The surrounding atmosphere was quite chaotic. In particular, there was a lot of attention focused on me.

Right now, even Park Young-hoo was looking at me with wide eyes.

“Why do you look at me like that?”

“I heard stories about Superhuman, but I found out that it was just as rumored.”

“What kind of rumor is this?”

“Well, those are pretty difficult things to talk about.”

“it’s okay.”

When I broadcast on the Internet, I see reactions in real time, but I only have this much.

Park Young-hoo, who hesitated, spoke with difficulty.

“I heard that if you are defined as an enemy, they will take merciless action against you.”

“You’re not wrong.”

“It’s just that words are coming out…”

I mean, it will come out.

Anyway, I don’t really care what’s going on behind my back.

However, there was something to be heard from Park Young-hoo’s words.

“There are times when I don’t feel there are clear standards.”

standard? Actually, I don’t think I’ve ever thought much about it.

The standard for taking action was the person who would kill me, the person who did something to my death, and the person who started a fight with me.

Now that I am a normal superhuman, there is a need to make that distinction.

While I was gathering my thoughts, Gunji and Tsuyoshi appeared.

“sorry.”

Kunji briefly apologized, and Tsuyoshi also apologized.

“I apologize again for the sudden situation.”

“···it’s okay.”

After thinking for a moment, I accepted it.

If I had been a little late, I would have done something, but there is no need to say that.

As I accepted the apology, the discussion began in a much softer atmosphere.

“I will be at the forefront.”

Tsuyoshi said he would take the lead. His immobility gift stood out against the Witch Doctor’s curse.

Even if there is an advantage in compatibility, basic competency is important, right?

Villains called Zodiac signs are superhumans who are known to be difficult to deal with unless they are teenage superhumans.

Tsuyoshi’s evaluation did not reach the level of Witch Doctor.

I’ve never seen it before, so I’m not sure exactly how big the difference is.

Are you trying to use this operation as a test to overturn that assessment?

The guess seemed to be true, as Gunji and I were put off to a supporting role. If a full-scale attack begins, he will intervene at that time, but it seems that Tsuyoshi himself intends to eat the most delicious food.

Can the evaluation really be overturned?

Of the countless evaluations that have been made so far, there is only one that was different.

Are you saying I’m crazy?

It remains to be seen how much Tsuyoshi can accomplish.

“Of course.”

“Thank you for your understanding.”

Tsuyoshi, who had a worried expression the whole time, smiled brightly and thanked me.

Let’s take a look at your skills.

* * *

Information was received that the League’s reinforcements had arrived, and Tsuyoshi began to move quickly in the vanguard.

Although it was a stealth mission, I had no intention of missing out on the opportunity.

‘Catch the Witch Doctor.’

Tsuyoshi never once thought that he was lagging behind the zodiac signs.

Immovability means a mind that never wavers.

This is why it is immune to mental gifts and is able to maintain calmness in many daily situations.

The close younger brother that Gunji lost was also close to him. Unlike Gunji, who was influenced by it, he accepted it as something that could happen in everyday life.

Being unshakable is a huge advantage in battle. However, since I don’t like to show off by nature and don’t show off, I felt that my skills were being underestimated.

Tsuyoshi didn’t think much about this part. This is because I believe that confidence in oneself is important and that there is no reason to be sensitive to or swayed by the evaluations of others.

But I changed my mind some time ago.

Even though the cabinet said they had enough, they brought in Choi Jun-ho.

Do you find yourself unsatisfactory? Where is the county? They were all superhumans who devoted themselves to Japan. In this case, I thought there was a lack of respect for them. That’s probably because he hasn’t revealed his skills clearly until now.

“Gunji’s words make sense.”

This time, we thought we should achieve solid results and make ourselves recognized.

If there is no greed, it is a lie. The prestige of defeating the 12 signs would be truly great.

Tsuyoshi invaded the league hideout at high speed. The plan was to pass through the large factory site, spy on the deepest warehouse, and obtain information.

However, that intention was ruined when a voluptuous black figure appeared before my eyes.

“You’re Tsuyoshi, right?”

“···you.”

“me? “I think he’s pretty famous among you guys, but I guess he doesn’t know?”

“Witch Doctor.”

“answer.”

The woman who radiated alluring beauty even in the dark was none other than Witch Doctor Constantina.

Her blue eyes were following Tsuyoshi in silence.

“······.”

Tsuyoshi gathered his brows as he looked at Constantina who proudly appeared in front of him.

The reason why she, who was known to lack direct combat skills, appeared was unknown.

Constantina, sensing his thoughts, laughed.

“Isn’t it a little too late to be suspicious now that you’re in the middle of the trap?”

When she raised her right hand and tapped the air with her index finger, black ripples arose. At the same time, Tsuyoshi felt disconnected from the world and his five senses were disturbed.

It was a curse that the Witch Doctor liked to use. Tsuyoshi, who was briefly disturbed by the surprise curse, activated his immovable spirit.

The eyes, which had been shaking dizzyingly, returned to their original positions in an instant.

“That kind of trick doesn’t work.”

“As expected, it’s immovable. “Then how about this?”

Tsuyoshi rushed towards the Witch Doctor, who was about to cast the curse once again.

When the Japanese sword reflects the moonlight and sprays a blue force, the Witch Doctor’s body shakes and moves away into the distance. The curse was activated in a short moment. Although the immobility prevented abnormal conditions, the power of the curse was stronger than expected.

“Big!”

An unwavering mind is a mind that never wavers. A firm mind leads to a firm mind and provides the strength to maintain one’s self-centeredness despite any changes.

Now that you have withstood the curse, it is your turn.

Tsuyoshi reached in front of Constantina and swung his sword.

Although she is a member of the zodiac, the reason she gained fame is because of her curse ability that can influence superhumans.

It is known that his direct combat ability does not reach that of a superhuman.

If so, it is your victory.

Just when I thought I was going to be cut in half and die, something surprising happened.

Constantina threw away the Japanese sword without difficulty.

That was a blow with all his might.

“how······.”

She smiled slightly at the astonished man.

“Did you really think that I was called a superhuman without any combat skills? There are no believers in Europe, but there are believers far away. “Thank you for fooling me.”

“urg!”

Tsuyoshi gritted his teeth and swung his sword. The blue force flashed, splitting the darkness and rushing in. Constantina easily received the attack with her white hands.

The battle between the two superhumans continued over thirty times in an instant. Tsuyoshi, who was in the middle of the enemy lines, did his best but was unable to break through Constantina’s defenses.

Then, the one who was gradually being chased was Tsuyoshi, who was in the middle of enemy lines.

The smile on Konstantina’s lips deepened.

“Aren’t you too careless?”

“What nonsense!”

As black ripples appeared in the air, I realized that a curse had been activated and activated my immobility.

But this curse was different.

There was a huge shock as if I had been hit on the head with a blunt object.

Tsuyoshi, with his eyes wide open, gritted his teeth and tried to keep his composure.

“Do you think I’m playing?”

Constantina dug into that gap.

The moment her touch passed over his heart, Tsuyoshi felt his immobility shatter.

Could it be that there was also a curse that unlocked gifts?

“If you want to make a living in the curse industry, you have no choice but to find many ways.”

Although it was said as a joke, the aftermath was truly powerful.

“Aaaah!”

A flood of uncontrollable emotions surges through the collapsed wall of immobility.

What filled my mind was the hypocrisy I had committed.

He killed anyone who got in his way, even if they were innocent, for the sake of the greater good, and mercilessly abandoned the woman who devoted himself to him for the sake of success. And under the pretext of peace, he unilaterally eliminated innocent witnesses who suffered damage and paid no heed to casualties resulting from accidents in order to increase his own ransom.

All kinds of hypocrisy had torn Tsuyoshi’s conscience to shreds.

Why live like this? Are you worth living? I am trash. Living any longer would only bring harm to the world. It must disappear. Let’s disappear.

Self-hatred is spreading uncontrollably.

The final blow was the memory of an old lover that had been buried tightly.

A woman who has supported him since he had nothing. She told him to focus on his training and did the work himself and did not shy away from hard work.

A woman who believed in herself even though she had nothing and gave everything without any doubt.

A woman who pretended to calmly accept his declaration of breakup, but eventually died of sorrow.

And he himself resolutely ignored it.

‘Keiko…’

Feeling sorry for her shattered Tsuyoshi’s spirit like a dam overflowing.

“Ugh!”

In the end, unable to bear the shock, he picked up a Japanese sword and cut his own throat.

Sigh!

A fountain of blood spurted out and a headless body fell to the ground.

It was a meaningless end for a superman who represented Japan.

“You made quite a bit of use of the means you prepared.”

But even superhumans are ultimately humans.

In front of his own curse, strong men, old people, awakened people, and superhumans were all the same.

If you have a gift that can withstand the curse, you can cast a curse to scatter it.

Constantina, standing in front of Tsuyoshi’s body, bowed.

He smiled, wetting his hands with blood that had not yet cooled.

“Now all that’s left is Head Breaker.”
