I Became The Villain The Hero Is Obsessed With chapter 335

335 - Towards the End

335 – Towards the End

Egoistic’s terror, which turned an entire department store into a haunted house through renovation.

That terror came to a very successful conclusion.

Not only were there no casualties, but the scale of this terror, caused by the now world-famous Egoistic, was quite large. As a result, it received tremendous attention.

Egoistic dominated the real-time keyword trends all day long.

[I filmed a video inside the haunted department store created by Egoistic…(feat. Stardust)]

*

In particular, a video taken by one of the hostages…and participants inside the department store became popular and ranked as the number one trending video.

It was characterized as more terrifying than ordinary horror movies. Especially, the scene where, after wandering through a dark maze exhausted from fear, a monster appeared and attacked just before Stardust showed up, emitting light and saving the day. Many praised it as if it were a scene from a movie, as if someone had deliberately manipulated the monster to create such a situation.

Thus, translated videos of Egoistic’s terror spread worldwide, and comments asking how much the participation fee for the terror event was flooded in.

…Of course, it’s debatable whether the success of a terror should be measured by its popularity.

Nevertheless, despite the terror ending relatively successfully,

I was lying alone in my room, deeply shocked.

In that state, there was only one thing I was thinking about.

“…Sigh.”

…Obviously, it was about Stardust.

Around the time today’s terror came to an end.

Even then, she had consistently shown me a cold attitude.

‘It wasn’t that hard to deal with the mess caused by a piece of trash like you.’

Her icy voice still seemed to echo in my ears.

‘…I worked hard to prepare for this.’

Feeling slightly gloomy, I shook my head and thought.

Well, what does it matter? After all, Stardust is more natural when acting like this. She never compromised with any of the villains in the original work, so why would she be nice to me? It was a ridiculous idea from the start. I knew it was all an act anyway…

‘…No.’

…Actually.

To be honest, now that I think about it.

I had… I had a little hope.

That maybe she had feelings for me too, something like that.

But if I turned out to be wrong, I thought I wouldn’t be able to handle the shock, so I denied it. Getting rejected by your favorite character after chasing a pipe dream? It’s a wonder I’m still alive.

…And well, if you think about it, things turned out as I expected.

I was wrong after all.

I mean, considering all the terror I’ve caused so far… it’s absurd to think Stardust would have feelings for me. Haha.

Her cold voice wasn’t just an act…

…As I kept digging deeper into my thoughts, I realized it was already late at night.

“This isn’t the time for this…”

After lying in bed, lost in thought for a long time, I shook my head and got up from my spot.

…That’s right.

There’s no time to be heartbroken over something like this. Even though I found out that being scolded by Stardust hurt more than I thought… well, wasn’t this the inevitable outcome?

My goal wasn’t to get along with Stardust, but to make her walk on a path of flowers and protect the world.

So let’s stop having these useless thoughts and focus on what’s left to do.

There are still many things that need to be done.

“…Anyway!”

Isn’t it a good thing that I can now part ways with Stardust more comfortably? Yes. The more I think about it, the more it seems that way.

“…After finishing the last act of terror, maybe I should go on a trip somewhere far away.”

I leaned against the window and muttered.

There’s a lot to do. Once I protect this world until the very end and take a break… my role will be fulfilled.

Stardust. Whether she recognizes it or not.

I’ve decided to move forward on the path I’ve chosen.

For her sake.

They say that the path of a villain is a lonely one, don’t they?

…Of course, when I think about it, I have many colleagues, so I’m not that lonely. That’s nice.

So, I brushed off everything.

I smiled slightly at the corner of my mouth and opened the door.

‘…I’m hungry.’

Shall I eat something?

With that thought, I went outside.

Now, shall I start preparing for the last terror in earnest?

With that thought, I walked towards where my Ego Stream members were, greeting the day for the first time today.

I decided to do my best until retiring.

And so.

A lot of time has passed since then.

I caused a considerable amount of terror.

…Actually, I was going to do just one or two more, but when I thought I wouldn’t see Stardust after this, I felt reluctant and ended up doing more.

…In short, I produced terror almost every two weeks. Of course, since I had nothing else to worry about, I could focus on preparing for the terror, and the completion was quite excellent.

To be precise, after finishing the terror for measuring Stardust’s abilities, I returned to puzzle-type terror after a long time.

For example, I captured two politicians, exposed their misdeeds, and held a people’s trial to execute the one with more votes. Of course, in the end, Stardust saved both of them… but since they were both going to prison, it didn’t matter much.

Of course, Stardust’s reaction was cold throughout.

“Ha. This trash, he’s really excited.”

She shot at me with a cold voice like that.

When I approached her with a joke occasionally, her face would turn red, as if she was really angry.

…How did she hide that feeling until now? Is it because she’s a pro?

Of course, now that I’ve let go of my feelings, I’ve become more resilient, and she would just laugh and retort.

…Of course, my heart hurt from time to time, but anyway.

That’s how I’ve been living lately.

“…No, really. Are you not going to retire?”

One day, while doing that.

As I sat at the computer, reviewing the last terror, a small, cold finger poked my cheek.

When I looked to the side, wondering who it was, I saw Seoeun with her cheeks puffed out, poking me with her finger.

As I blinked my eyes, Seoeun fiddled with her finger and said to me.

“Oppa… I don’t want to rush you, but… isn’t it strange to say you’ll retire and then cause seven terrors?”

“Ah.”

At Seo Eun’s words, I laughed and said,

“Don’t worry. The next one will be the last terror.”

“…! Really?”

Seo Eun’s face brightened up at my words. She was so simple, and I liked that.

I calmed down the excited Seo Eun for a moment and then asked her,

“Can you call everyone to the living room? I have something to say about the last terror.”

“Huh? What is it?”

“For the last time… let’s gather all our members and make a big splash.”

“…Aha! Got it! I’ll go and come back quickly!”

As Seo Eun hurried out at my words,

I quietly smiled, turning my head to look out the window.

… My life as a villain, which had once declared itself the arch-nemesis of Stardust, was finally coming to an end.

No more entanglements with her, no more people gossiping about me like they used to.

“…”

I felt relieved, yet somehow regretful at the same time.

That’s right. Stardust had gone through a lot because of me. It was time to give her some peace. It seemed like she was struggling to face me.

“Let’s do it. The last terror.”

Muttering to myself, I picked up my mask.

To prepare for the grand show, where I would face Stardust for the last time.

***

[I think it’s best to keep going like this.]

“Uh-huh…”

‘… I feel uneasy.’

Lee Seol Ah, the chairman of Yoo Sung Group and an A-class hero in South Korea.

She whispered to herself as she conversed with her friend Stardust.

It had been over a month since Stardust caught the hit-and-run concept of Egoistic.

And the problem was that she had a feeling that something was not right.

‘… No, I told her to push and pull. Who said she should only push…!’

To Lee Seol Ah, that was the biggest problem she saw.

…It was that Haru’s acting was too good.

To be precise, her acting was so good that anyone who saw it would think, ‘Ah, Stardust must really dislike Egostick.’

Feeling a sense of unease because of this, Seol Ah contacted Dain.

[Ah, Stardust? Well, I guess she dislikes me. Isn’t that obvious? Hahaha…]

…Only after hearing his empty words did she realize that something serious had happened.

That’s why she wanted to tell Haru to stop right away.

“…You’re wrong.”

But Haru had no intention of listening to her.

The problem was, ever since she started treating Egostick coldly, he no longer avoided Stardust, but rather, his terror acts increased.

That fact was enough to make Stardust think that her method had been effective.

As a result, the now reckless Haru decided to keep pushing forward like this…

“Haru, no matter what, I don’t think you should continue like this…”

Still, when she said so much to her,

The girl seemed to gradually calm down.

[…Really?]

“Yes. It could backfire, you know…”

[Ah, Seol Ah, wait. I think I need to go now. Egostick is causing terror again. Sorry.]

“Huh? Uh, okay.”

Click.

Clutching the abruptly disconnected phone, Seol Ah let out a sigh.

“…I wonder if it’ll work out.”

And, Seol Ah didn’t know.

That the terror that day would be the last terror act caused by Egostick.
