I Became The Villain The Hero Is Obsessed With
chapter-50

"Phew."

So I teleported to the underground basement in one go.

Oh, shit… I think I'm going to faint because I brought two people with me.

While I stumbled holding onto my dizzy head, Lee Ha-yul and her brother looked everywhere.

What they're looking at is white walls, glowing with LEDs.

I don't have much of an impression because I see those things every day, but I guess it's different for them.

Of course, her brother… Was his name Lee Cha-yun? Cha-yun is looking back with sparkling eyes, and Lee Ha-yul is looking around taking precaution while hugging her younger brother.

Once I grabbed my dizzy head, I said to them.

"Oh… I feel like dying. Kids, stop looking around and follow me. Ugh.”

As I staggered forward, the kids followed me behind.

She's still being cautious while coming with me, but I guess she decided to follow me first.

While we were walking along the white hallway, Seo-eun and So-bin popped out.

"Da-in! Oh…"

Seo-eun was coming towards me as she suddenly saw the kids behind me, she paused a little.

She seemed a little nervous when the siblings suddenly appeared behind me.

"Oh, yeah. They're in trouble, so I brought them here. But put aside everything, we should let them take a shower first. Take them to the bathroom…. Bring them some extra clothes."

Seo-eun seems a little confused by my sudden words.

But fortunately, Soobin, who was behind her, stepped up.

"I'll show you around. Kids, can you come with me?"

Soobin stepped forward with a friendly smile. Yes, Soobin looks the nicest among us. It turns out that she also looks the prettiest among us…?

Soobin gently asked them to follow her, the siblings timidly followed her. Well, it's obvious that the moment they came here, they had no choice but to listen to us.

Still, Lee Ha-yul looked more comfortable with Soobin than me. Well, from her point of view, I'd look like a crazy man wearing all black with a gun… And since Soobin is also a girl.

But I guess the younger brother is not like that. The kid glances back at me as he goes. Why does he like me so much? Do elementary school students like me that much these days?

Anyway, after taking care of the kids, I walked towards the fatigue recovery capsule.

It was quite easy when I used my telekinesis, but the last teleportation was a little too much. Teleporting three people was a bit too much…

"Oppa… That hat. You're finally wearing it!""

As I was staggering, Seo-eun came toward me from behind and talked as we walked together.

"Oh… Yeah, this."

I touched the black magician hat on my head.

"What do you think? Don't you think I have some vibe? I'm going to keep wearing this."

"Uh… Haa. Well, as long as you like it."

What does that sigh mean?

Anyway, I managed to walk to the fatigue recovery capsule.

I somehow started to feel better as the machine ran.

As I was lying down and recovering, Seo-eun sat down in the chair next to me.

"So those siblings… What are you going to do with them?"

"Ugh… Them?”

The original plan was that we built up constantly then recruited them. Things got a little complicated. But…

"Her brother really likes me. So I think it'll work out somehow"

"Really? That's amazing. Is he in your Mango Union or something?”

"I guess so. Gosh, I didn't know what I've been building up to now would come back like this."

"Haha… I guess you're the president of elementary schoolers."

"That's possible. Right, did you finish installing the teleportation device?"

"I finished it the day before yesterday. Are you sure you want to move?"

"Yeah, we've been stuck here for three months, and I’ve come to realize that this is not the place. People need to live under the sunlight."

"Sob… I like it here though."

"Now that we have a teleportation device here, it's practically going to be close to the basement. Don't worry."

Waiting with such a little flirtation, the door of this room opened after a while.

Soobin came in first, the siblings hesitated for a bit and then came in.

They seem to have taken a shower and changed to clean clothes.

Oh, they suddenly look different after washing up.

They looked very dirty covered in dust a while ago, but after washing up and changing to new clothes, they became different. Particularly, Lee Ha-yul was also as beautiful as she was drawn in the original work. Do they also use the filters for villain’s appearance in this world?

Anyway, two of them came in.

I winked then told Seo-eun and Soobin to leave. The two of them read my eyes and quietly left the room.

In the large room, only me and the siblings were left.

"Kids… Just get the chair over there to sit."

As I still lied down for the fatigue recovery period, the two slowly sat down in their chairs.

Well, where do I start?

While I was thinking of what to say, Lee Ha-yul opened her mouth first.

"Why did you help us?"

She suddenly spoke up. I looked at her eyes, and they were full of distrust. As it was mentioned in the original comic, she seems to have no one but her younger brother.

Looking at her for a moment, I spoke up.

"I used to have a younger brother around your age.”

She frowned at the sudden unexpected story.

I continued.

I used to have a brother, but he was killed by the terrorists.

This time, I was tracking down who stole my wallet, and I saw you.

When I saw the terrorists attacking you, I thought of my brother who died in the same situation so I jumped in.

As I said so, I was holding my breath.

By the way, it's all a lie. I don't have any brothers.

However, in order to get rid of her guard, I have to make up a lie. Hmm…

"Lee Ha-yul, Lee Cha-yun… I searched for your information while you were washing up. Lee Ha-yul, you killed the head of the orphanage and ran away, right?"

She surprised me at my words.

Yeah, I know she would be like that.

"Well, I don't mean to reproach you. The head of the orphanage was also a pretty crazy woman. I don't know why she was so mean to you guys."

I need to spill the bait here, pretending ‘I don't know you have the best healing ability.'

If she knows I helped her because of that, she won’t stay still with her personality.

As I said so far, I set the tone again and looked at them.

"I can help you."

"With my ability, I can fabricate it like you guys ran away. You didn't kill the director of the orphanage, you guys just ran away when opportunity came up. I have enough ability to do that."

"And I can give you a place to live and money. Do you go to school? I'll send you to school, too."

"You guys just live while playing around."

"I'll back you up."

I suddenly offered her my generosity.

Already, her brother was already hooraying to his Mango Stick but…

He’s not the problem. Lee Ha-yul’s idea is more important.

As expected, she looks at me suspiciously at my sudden words.

"…Why would you do that much for us? It's our first time seeing each other today. It doesn't make sense."

She shoots back at me, still doubting.

But different from her firm voice, her body was trembling slightly. Yeah, it’s not easy for her to speak like that in front of me while knowing that I can kill someone with just one flick.

I smiled bitterly at him.

"I told you earlier. I thought of my brother when I saw you guys."

"Just think of it like you just won a lottery that you picked up from the street.”

She couldn’t stop doubting even when I said so. But she went away once I told them to go to bed.

Soobin came to take the two of them to an empty room and spread out the sheets for them.

Soobin takes care of the kid better than I thought. She is good at cooking, cleaning, and taking good care of the kids. No matter how much I look at her, she’s like a professional housewife.

Anyway, as I managed to put them to sleep, it was already the next day.

***

"This is where you’re going to live."

The next day, the siblings followed me from the morning and widened their mouths.

In the morning, we all had an awkward breakfast together, and I told them to follow me. We went up to the basement, and got out of the ordinary house.

This place was moved by the suspiciously high-tech teleportation device.

It is a three-story mansion that is as large as a palace, lying in a deep valley that no one can reach.

"I-I mean. This is a bit…"

With overwhelming majesty, Lee Ha-yul, who had been doubting me even just a while ago, widened her eyes as she looked at me..

"Of course, you’re not going to live here by yourself. We're all going to live here, too. I'm on the third floor. I’ll give you two rooms on the second floor, so just stay there.”

I smiled and they still had their mouths open.

"Didn't I tell you? I have a lot of money."

I’m showing off my fortune.

Anyway, we went inside. I introduced the room to them. Two rooms with two refrigerators and beds. It looks fully equipped because it is prepared in advance.

As I pushed the kids who were looking stressed to go in, they also seemed to have adapted quickly as their nature. I told them that since I’ve taken care of everything, they can go to school starting next week, so the two of them were dumbfounded.

We've only been together for a while, but we've gotten closer. Lee Ha-yul is definitely less nervous about me than before. Her younger brother and I got close quickly because I answered his questions. He really likes me. I didn't know he was really in Mango Union…

As things keep going like this, I will be able to recruit Lee Ha-yul, right? She hasn't revealed her ability to me yet, but still. What if I fall and come to the situation where I’m on the verge of death? Won't she save me with her healing ability?

Phew. Well, when the terrorists suddenly broke in, I thought it was ruined, but it seem to go well now. Thank God.

Gosh, I'm exhausted.

But I think I forgot something…

What is it?

***

[Title] Egostic is not dead, right?

I mean, it really doesn't make sense.

It's been almost 4 months. Where did he go?

Come back, come back, come back, come back.

=[Comment] =

[It's been 4 months since Egostic disappeared. I've been spending the coldest 4 months in the world.]

[He hasn’t been out for 120 days? It really doesn't make sense! Hahahaha.]

[Fuck, Egostic didn’t go retired, right?]

ㄴ[Oh my god]

ㄴ[Fuch, no way.]

ㄴ[But isn't it good if the villain retires? Why are you sad that a villain doesn't terrorize you?]

ㄴ[?]

ㄴ[?]

ㄴ[Checking.]

ㄴ[You're a Stardust, aren't you?

ㄴ[You Stardust bastard.]

"Haru, why do you keep tapping the cup? You look nervous these days."

"Oh, I'm sorry."

Inside the cafe.

Stardus, Shin Haru stopped touching the glass that she was tapping at without knowing.

It's been almost four months since that Egostic got off the ground.

Stardus were slowly getting nervous as she had been burning with the will to find out his secrets, tricks, and plans,

No, this guy needs to be active so she can find out.

‘Usually… It's already time for him to show up though…’

Even today, she was just spending a meaningless day waiting for him.
