I Became The Villain The Hero Is Obsessed With-Novel

Ep.134 Alibi

In the washroom on one side of the beach

I asked Shin Haru’s permission to go there, turned on my phone, and quickly made a call.

[Da-in! What should we do? Are you okay? Why is Stardus there? Didn’t you get caught?]

“It’s okay Seo-eun. Not yet. But I don’t have time right now. So listen to me at once. Got it?”

[Okay! Go ahead]

“First of all, Death Knight, Choi Sehee, and the thing you called Starbreaker? That and Eun-wol, I need everything.”

We are going to cause terrorism.

Right now.

My plan was simple.

Shin Haru is suspecting that I’m Egostic.

So what’s the solution?

It’s simple: I can prove that Egostic is causing terror elsewhere when I’m here. I’m going to make an alibi.

But at the same time as I’m in a great hurry, the terrorism must leave Stardus with no doubt.

As such, the important thing is to stall.

Having planned so quickly, I told our Ego Stream members to progress the plan immediately.

The members weren’t confused by my sudden instructions and moved as fast as possible.

Thank you, guys. I picked the good ones.

As I suspected if I stayed for a long time, I came out of the bathroom again after delivering my instructions.

I breathed in for a while.

Yes, now all I have to do is wait.

Having made up my mind, I came out.

Then, she seemed to be worried as if she was a little disturbed when she hugged her on one side of the sunbed.

…Don’t tell me you’re trying to figure out how to catch me.

I have to look away before she can have any strange ideas.

With that determination, I approached and started the conversation first.

After a while.

Boom-.

The attack has begun.

And Shin Haru left in a hurry after she received a mysterious call, perhaps from the association.

…Of course, the farewell part was a bit troublesome, but the important thing is I cut her off.

Just like that, Shin Haru went away.

I got my act together alone on the beach.

Now. Let’s do as planned.

***

….What the hell is going on here?

Shin Haru wearing her suit and flying across the sky, Stardus’ mind was so confused.

Egostic appeared? Really?

So who’s the guy she talked to on the beach?

In the confusing situation, Stardus had no choice but to go for now.

She had to go since an attack just happened. She had to go immediately.

But…

“…It’s weird, it’s just weird.”

She muttered while flying across the sky.

There’s no way there are two Egostics under the same sky.

….

Yeah, of course not.

She’s mistaken, and it’s much more likely that the Egostic that appeared just now is the real one.

But

‘Really?’

She hardly believed her hunch.

But, but… This time it was almost certain. She could feel it with her instinct.

Okay.

This is strange. That’s absurd.

With such confidence, she quickly flew to the place where Egostic was.

It’s been a little delayed, but still.

She flew away in such a hurry with the thought that she could see him soon.

Egostic flying in the middle of a city center, throwing bombs.

“…..”

Cameras floating next to him. The roar of explosions.

And she could clearly hear his voice.

“Hahaha! Everyone, do you like bomb rice balls? So you like bombs, too? Here’s the bomb gift set for you!”

“….”

Okay.

He casually just caused the terrorism as if their talking and laughing on the beach a while ago wasn’t a reality. The black hat, the black cap, the mask on his face, and his voice speaks to the camera. It’s just no different from the usual Egostic.

She’s sure he’s been terrorizing even before she came, so…

It’s more likely that this Egostic is real, and the man he talked to on the beach is not Egostic. There can’t be two people at the same time.

Yeah. Maybe that’s the real Egostic.

…. But really?

She unwittingly floated up in the sky and looked at Egostic, who was still making noises while terrorizing people, as if he hadn’t noticed her from below.

…That one is Egostic.

Her instinct.

She’s feeling something sketchy with her instinct.

Something’s weird. Okay.

She’s sure the guy down there is Egostic.

But why?

Why doesn’t he look like Egostic?

It’s just her hunch again. If someone asked her why she felt like that, she would say ‘It’s just my hunch’. It’s more like speculation and delusion.

But above the sky, in the cold wind.

She was constantly in a strange mood.

She can’t believe it.

Egostic was definitely… on the beach with her.

However,

If she can just come close and face him directly within a stone’s throw. If only she talks to him, and says a few words.

She may know.

She might be sure.

If the man in front of her is really Egostic or not.

All right.

She’s seen Ego Stick more than anyone else.

…maybe, if she really just had a private conversation with him a while ago.

Obviously, just by facing him, she can grasp it right away.

She’s obsessed with that conviction.

Soon, she shouted out loud at Egostic, who was floating on one side of the street and still throwing something she couldn’t even tell if they were real bombs or just smoke bombs.

“Egostic!”

As he heard her voice, he paused for a moment, stopped throwing bombs, and turned around.

Looking at him looking at her, she was captivated by a more strange sense immediately.

….That’s Egostic?

Strange as it is, it was him.

She can check when she comes in front of him.

With that in mind, she flew like an arrow to him.

[Ack-!!!!!]

“….!”

Shin Haru hurriedly flew and pulled herself back as the sudden shadow and ominous sensation came at her.

Soon.

Thud-.

With a tremendous noise, something big stood in her way.

[Hahaha! Your opponent is me!]

A huge mechanical suit, large and heavy, reminiscent of a monster.

Falling from the sky, it shined neatly in silver.

In the middle of it was a picture of the star being smashed in half by a red line.

And unlike that huge, overbearing figure, the voice of a young girl inside came out from the speaker.

[Stardus? It’s been a while! I, South Silver, will stop you with this Starbreaker, your new nemesis!]

The girl who’s probably in the mechanism screamed triumphantly.

Listening to her voice, Stardus felt something springing up inside.

….My nemesis is Egostic, not you.

So.

“Get out.”

But the mechanical suit didn’t move away but opened its arms in front of Egostic.

Soon, Stardus held back her anger and clenched her fist.

…Yeah. Let’s get it over with and get to Egostic.

That’s how she jumped at that Starbreaker thing.

It also pulled the missiles out of its mechanical arm.

The battle has begun.

***

“Hello, everyone. This is Egostic!”

[Mang-hi (meaning Mango Stick hi~)]

[Egostic! Egostic!] What took you so long? TT]

[We’ve been waiting for you, Master ‘Mang’]

[The return of the king… All the petty villains will tremble with anxiety.]

[Fundamental appearance hahahahaha Big show coming hahahahaha]

[I just smiled as soon as I saw the notification for Mango’s show hahahaha.]

[I missed you… It’s been a while since the last terrorist attack.]

[I’m happy because I’m living in the same time as G.O.A.T’s Mango Stick]

[Oh hahahahaha So what are you doing today? hahaha]

[I mean, you went on live a bit late this time. Why didn’t you turn it on as soon as the terror started?]

He turned on the broadcast,

What people saw was Egostic floating in the sky and throwing bombs at the road like feeding chickens.

Egostic said hello to people instead of throwing bombs.

He seemed to be floating in the sky as usual, speaking in a cheerful voice.

Of course, the truth is

On the highway,

In the black limousine going across it, I was speaking with a microphone on.

“Yes! Long time no see. Guys! Wait a minute, let me throw some bombs while waiting for Stardus!”

[Of course hahaha He’s obsessed with Stardus hahahaha]

[He’s seriously an EgoStar supporter though?????]

[Information] There’s a villain waiting for a hero while terrorizing?]

[Isn’t Stardus the official guest of Ego TV? Hahahaha]

[Mango x Star combination is guaranteed to be fun]

[Why are you so sure that Stardus will come?]

[Seola said she’s near Seoul. What if Icicle comes?]

Yeah, she’s not going to come.

I glanced sideways at the silly chat window and looked at my face.

All right, no one noticed, right?

I turned off the microphone and asked Soobin who was driving in front of me.

“Soobin! How much longer does it take for us to arrive?”

“Just a little bit!”

Okay.

Now I’m rushing to the scene of the terror in the. car.

I can just teleport there, but if I do that again, there is a 99% chance that I will faint as soon as I move, so it’s inevitable.

Then who is the Egostic that is throwing the bomb in the video?

That’s my fantasy created by Eun-wol, who flew there first with her moon magic. She can’t reproduce my voice, so I’m broadcasting with the microphone on.

“Da-in! I think Stardus is getting there before us right now!”

“Really? Then hurry up and send that star thing out!”

“It’s Starbreaker…! And it’s my first time remote-controlling, so it’s hard…!

Seo-eun is tapping her laptop like crazy next to me.

I prepared to hand over the microphone to her.

She needs to say something too.

“…Hey, is this really all right?”

[Yeah, Da-in. It’s pretty… chaotic.]

“It’s our job to make it okay when it’s not okay. Sehee, Desik. Get ready to fight, both of you.”

I also checked my clothes once again. Hat, mask, cape. I’m wearing everything, right?

Phew. I took a deep breath.

Stardus will probably notice that the illusion of Egostic is fake as soon as she sees it up close. So, I’ll try to block Stardus’ approach as much as I can, and I’ll have to swap with Eun-wol before she notices. There’s no way she wouldn’t have noticed the illusion when she almost noticed that I was Egostic.

In other words, it’s now a battle against time.

Or will I successfully arrive first, swap, and make an alibi?

It’s the only battle.

“Soobin! Just step on the gas! There’s no car going around here right now anyway!”

“More here? O-Oh, okay!”

“Eeek!”.

So the car that carried all of us began to run as if it were testing the maximum speed limit that a four-wheel-drive vehicle could produce.

When we arrive nearby, I’ll take the risk and teleport there.

Okay, let’s go.

I can do it.

As such.

Stardus’s time attack, which only she doesn’t know, was beginning.
