49 – When everyone was in confusion
The interior was suddenly thrown into chaos by the collapsing building. While people were running in all directions due to their instinct to survive, those who were in imminent danger of death had no need to pay attention to the two students running away from there.
They succeeded in escaping safely, and the moment others will find out that they escaped from this place without being crushed to death will be in the distant future, so it won’t really matter. Hyunwoo smiled in satisfaction and glanced at his phone screen once again-
“Are you crazy?!”
“It’s noisy. “How can I do something that I can’t think of other than this?”
“But what if they destroy the building all at once?”
Ignoring the screams of Eunji, who was forced to run by his hand, he made an annoyed expression and pressed the button on his prosthetic arm.
“Oh, you followed me like I was crazy, really…”
“Is there any problem?”
“There are a lot! If you destroy this place, we too will be crushed like rats! Besides, why are you running inward instead of out?!”
“That’s right, because there are still villains left inside. Just take it.”
Two masks and a sword with prosthetic hands splitting on both sides and sticking out. Hyeon-woo snatched it all with one hand and returned the prosthetic hand again, and Eun-ji looked shocked as she grabbed the mask he casually handed her, but realized it was already too late to argue and gave up.
Eunji sighed and put on the mask, and soon after confirming the altered voice, he burned the pile of concrete falling on his head and opened his mouth.
“The villain remains inside? “Didn’t they take care of all the villains who came inside?”
“There are still two big fish left.”
“You were still trapped inside the building? No, let’s say Silence is like that, but who is the other one?”
“The guy who just installed those bars. Overhead.”
Hyunwoo rolled his head as he recalled the story of the game, and soon continued to run inside, while Eunji continued to advance, burning the falling structures.
“Then isn’t it too dangerous? “Even if we don’t compare to the evil brigade, it’s a bit difficult for the two of us to deal with those guys-“
“Once again, I may never have this opportunity again. How is it? “Is it still there?”
-The jamming was completed successfully, so those guys won’t be able to contact you outside. It would be natural for them to still be trapped. However, I don’t think I can find the location perfectly anymore. Even the CCTV was destroyed.
Since they destroyed all the buildings, it would be natural in a way. However, Hyunwoo thought that this was actually the best outcome for them.
“Not bad.”
“Are you listening to me? “What’s not bad?!”
“I know what you’re thinking, but a situation like this where we have to deal with both at the same time is not going to happen.”
“…Yes?”
“Think about it carefully. “Who evacuated Silence when the first terrorist attack occurred?”
What Eunji thought of was none other than a boy with black hair and purple eyes. Eunji, who remembered that he had taken Silence and the people on stage and evacuated, opened his eyes wide and then bit his lip.
“Hero Shield… Does that mean the villains are trying to lure him out and get rid of him?”
“It would actually be the opposite.”
“…Yes?”
“Think about it. “Why would they bother impersonating us?”
“That’s-“
Eunji was worried as she stroked her chin, but she couldn’t answer easily-
-To hide her identity. He would be a talent that would be a waste to throw away after being used once for a terrorist attack like this.
“Correct answer.”
The answer that came back was not from her, but from her in-ears, and Hyunwoo smiled bitterly, agreeing with what he said.
“Repentance attacked. The reason for the attack doesn’t really matter. However, what is important is that they attacked the location of Jo Yu-mi, a famous vocalist, and that she pretended to be a victim.”
Why do you hide your identity while doing a play like this? That would be obvious. She may be trying to hide her appearance here and attack her when others can trust her.
“Besides, there’s no way I can kill them just because they attack me. To be honest, Silence is not a guy with very strong abilities.”
“…What kind of bullsh*t is that? “Did you not see the performance until just now?”
“That’s a talent, not an ability. Of course, he is more threatening because he is talented.”
Her ability is voice. When dealing with ordinary people, it was a versatile ability that could brainwash them and turn them into puppets, or even explode their entire bodies, starting with their eardrums – but that’s only when dealing with ordinary people.
When dealing with people of the same ability, things don’t go that easily. If a person has reached the same level of ability, they are immune to mental abilities and will not be easily defeated.
“No matter how much of a fan you are, would you trust someone you just met for the first time? He’s a hero too. “He is a guy who has been through all kinds of hardships and hardships – and has already experienced betrayal.”
“…I’m sorry.”
“Don’t suddenly become sullen. Because I don’t care. Anyway, there aren’t any problems right now. As far as I know, that b*tch’s level is not much different from Shield’s.”
In that respect, Hangyeol is in a situation where he can immediately suppress Silence. As far as he knows, there won’t be a big difference in the levels between Hangyeol and Silence.
The guy who hit the cage at that time is also a mid-boss in the game, so he wouldn’t be that strong. In fact, unlike the game, Hangyeol has become stronger – so even if those two try to overpower Hangyeol, they might end up getting the opposite chance. .
However, if there is an exception-
“But if you gain favor and reduce your guard, it’s a different story. And it may take time and opportunity to create an opportunity to gain that favor, but-“
“…The opportunity was created today, and now there is only time left. And I just created an opportunity to get that time. Should I say kill two birds with one stone?”
“So I have to kill him right now.”
They gained numerous benefits from this raid. If we look at it from now on, we don’t know what variables will be created by them. That’s why we need to kill him right now.
“If you’re hiding your identity, you won’t use your abilities. Rather, I wonder if I should act like a victim of what is happening.”
“So, it would be perfect if you could kill that guy right away and escape! “It might be easier than you think!”
“It would be great if it were that simple!”
“Huh?”
Eun-ji, who became brighter after hearing Hyun-woo’s explanation, immediately made a dumbfounded noise at his words, but Hyun-woo immediately grabbed the sword and swung it toward the floor –
“To put it the opposite way-“
With a crunching sound, the floor began to crack and fall into pieces, and Hyunwoo, who checked the people he saw in the gap, smiled bitterly and lowered his voice.
“…Does this mean we have to deal with that guy?”
“Damn it.”
A crumbling floor, a hallway on the first floor seen from the second floor. Hyun-woo, who found Han-gyeol there, sweating coldly and using his ability to lift the collapsing ceiling, bit his lip, which had not yet hardened and was bleeding, while Eun-ji cursed and closed her eyes tightly.

“Mr. Hangyeol…!”
“Please stay back.”
Hangyeol bit his lip with bloodshot eyes and activated his telekinetic powers to the maximum, and tried to reassure himself by smiling at the woman’s voice coming from behind him.
“Because you won’t be defeated easily. “I will definitely protect you.”
These are truly reassuring words to hear from a hero. This is the standard line that a hero who appears in a crisis situation would say to a hostage while confronting a villain.
“But…!”
However, instead of feeling reassured, the people behind him were looking at him with worried eyes.
The situation is very bad. It is so disadvantageous that even the average person can see it. Hangyeol was working hard to remove the remains of the currently collapsing building, and thanks to this, the collapse of the building was slowly slowing down, so it could be considered fortunate –
“Is it Hero Shield? “Any time I see him, he’s such a monster.”
Villains appear in a situation that is already in crisis. If this is not a disaster, then what is it? How on earth can you win in this situation?
“Still, it looks like it’s going to be very difficult – I guess you could do it if you wanted to escape on your own, right?”
“Shut up…!”
“Oh my, that’s a bit harsh.”
Unlike villains who wear masks and continue to attack without saying a word, this villain juggles with the rebar he is holding in a relaxed manner. Hangyeol glared at him and gritted his teeth, but even though he was actually smiling at him, he was embarrassed on the inside.
A building collapsing? Yes, you can. The leader who moved them in the first place had said that this situation might come, so he had roughly anticipated it.
However, the fact that they are holding on to these collapsing buildings with their telekinesis, continuing to block their own attacks, and even defeating other villains is just an extremely embarrassing situation.
Of course, they were just moving according to the script, but they were also assuming that they would eventually lose here and retreat – deep down, he was hoping for it.
No matter how famous the hero is, he can stop this many people on his own? Does that make sense? Wouldn’t it be easier for everyone, including Silence, to join forces and kill that person?
Kaaang!
“Tsk-“
He thought so and readily admitted that he had been arrogant. That hero was no different from a monster in that he was able to stop so many people by himself, as he did now by instantly bending the rebars he threw.
If they continue like this, won’t they also be crushed to death here? Should he step back now? – The villain who thought so soon tried to ward off the other villains with hand gestures, and finally opened his mouth and tried to spit out a certain line towards him –
Quaaang! Grumbling-
“…Hmm?”
As soon as he felt a sudden heat, the ceiling began to collapse, and his eyes widened when he saw flames bursting from there.
“-Oops!”
Both the villain and the performers who were really caught up – while the citizens were all confused, Hangyeol gritted his teeth and stretched out his hands upward to disperse the rushing flames –

Sweet-
Something that flies away in an instant while he has a moment of opportunity.
The sharp-looking sword was shot like an arrow, and soon flew towards Yumi, who was sitting down behind Hangyeol.
“Oh my-“
“Damn it!”
Both the villain and the citizens screamed, unable to hide their agitation, and Yumi opened her eyes wide at the unexpected attack and was unable to avoid it.
With the distance between her sword and her not long remaining, it is clear that she will die if things continue like this –
“Heo-eok, heo-eok-“
“…Tsk.”
Hangyeol looked at the sword that stopped in front of her, exhaling heavily and sat down. Then, with a clicking sound, she looked back at the people who had fallen from the second floor to the first floor and landed.
One is a man wearing a mask, and the other is a woman wearing a mask.
When they saw the appearance of a man holding something similar to the sword that had just attacked Yumi and a woman spewing fire from her entire body, they soon realized their identity and their expressions distorted.
“Villain Ash, and Guardian-“
“Hero Shield… As expected, his skills are outstanding.”
Although it has a strange voice and a different appearance from those previously confirmed, we can still tell who it is. Hangyeol frowned as he spat out the names of the villains who attacked him and his friends, and the same goes for the villains.
I didn’t know that Repentance’s villains would really show up. Have you come here to stop them? The villain man holding the rebar swallowed dry saliva as he looked at them, and just as he was contemplating what to do-
“I’m sorry. “It’s late.”
When he suddenly saw the two villains looking at him and lowering their heads,
“…Huh?”
He let out an incoherent sound and froze.
