I Became The Villain The Hero Is Obsessed With

Chapter 72: Recruiting Talents

All for Stardus.

It's a life goal that I've been aiming for for a long time since I fell into this world.

In the end, the star of this world is Stardus.

Yes, I will burn myself for her, who is also my favorite character.

The conclusion I set my mind on for her. Let's get rid of all the villains that bothered Stardus.

But then, who does Stardus fight with?

Stagnant water is bound to rot. Can a hero who doesn't work be called a hero?

And Stardus get stronger the more she goes through the ordeal?

…All right.

I'll be a villain myself and give her the ordeal that she can handle.

So far, I’ve worked hard to cause terrorism.

And it's time to take a step forward here.

"Terrorism… Should I do it?"

Okay.

Do I have to do this myself?

No, no need. As long as there are no casualties and only Stardus can grow, there is no problem if it’s other villains, not me.

So.

If I build a Villain Union or something, and let other villains start terrorizing instead of me.

I… can retire, right?

As such, it is necessary to find a new talent.

Seo-eun, Soobin, and Ha-yul are all supporters. There's no one with force!

That's why I'm going to pick another talents now.

This is a cafe.

I sat by the window, sipped coffee and peeped at the counter.

"Soobin, try this, too.""

"Hmm. The strawberry cake here is delicious, too."

"Cha-yoon, you should brush your teeth after eating"."

And next to me, Seo-eun, Soobin, Ha-yul, and Cha-yoon are all gathered to chitchat.

…..Can’t the head of household get his own personal time?

***

The person I'm going to pick up this time is a woman named Choi Sehee

She's the one working at the counter at the cafe I'm at.

"…Yes. It's 7,000 won."

Choi Sehee, who has orange hair and looks tired doing everything.

This time, I only came to spy on how she lived, so I just sat quietly in the cafe.

….So, I'm going to go to a cafe to recruit talent.

It's the weekend, so everyone followed me.

Everyone is eating a piece of cake.

"Da-in. You should take a bite, too.""

"Huh? Oh, yes. Let me have a bite."

It's good.

I kept looking at the counter with a mouth full of cake.

"……"

Meanwhile, she got asked for her number

I like how she pulled her tough expression and refused.

"Hmm…"

I kept looking at her and came to a conclusion.

Yeah, we can begin the operation now.

"Da0in, stop looking at the counter and eat more."

"Can I order one more honey bread?"

"Yeah, yeah, order everything you want."

First, let’s just eat some and have some rest…

I can wait until night.

I was lost in thought while eating a piece of cake.

Choi Sehee.

SHe is an electrician who can emit electricity.

In the original, She is one of the villains working under the name of Electra.

Among the villains,she is quite feisty, and she is quite hot-tempered.

She’s one of the popular characters for the original cartoon readers under the nickname "Iljin* noona." *TN: A term for ‘Bully’ in Korean.

She, who has been working busily every day without a break, eventually explodes without enduring the accumulated stress.

She was unable to resist the nature of the destructive light on the inside, her electricity overflowed in the middle of the city at night and was immediately suppressed by Shadow Walker.

As soon as she made her first appearance, she was immediately transferred to a camp, so she didn’t appear in the cartoon for a while, but she later showed up from the episode of The Great Escape.

Anyway, as she was designated as an A-class villain, the electric attack itself is a very excellent ability. In the first place, it’s good if the elemental dexterity itself is moderate. Just by looking at Icicle with her ability to use ice…

I need her anyway.

So, let's do it.

***

In the dark night.

Choi Sehee was taking heavy steps home.

"Haa…"

A life where she has to work every day.

She works from morning to evening, and when she gets home, she falls asleep.

"…Gosh. Shit."

She walked on the streets at night, spitting out some curses.

She doesn't work because she doesn't have enough money. Of course, it’s not like she has plenty of it either, but she still doesn’t have to overwork like this.

There's only one reason that she's working like she's forgetting the world.

A quirk that can never be said to others

Just to suppress the inner impulse of destruction that she has.

"….."

Walking through the dark night streets, she gently raised her head and looked around.

An empty back street

At the back of an alley where there’s no CCTV.

Seeing that no one was there, she took out the hand in her pocket.

And she raised her hands up.

Soon, at the tip of her fingers, the electricity chattered to the point where it was visible to the naked eye.

And soon, like a tree in the dark streets, stars were embroidered in the air by the electricity.

Twinkling yellow rays starting from the tip of her finger and spreading out in front of her

As she stared blankly at the sight she had achieved

"It's beautiful."

Suddenly, a voice came from behind.

"…!!"

Surprised, she stopped emitting electricity in a hurry and looked back.

Behind her, there was only a dark alley where nothing could be seen.

"…Who is it?"

She began to be alert, reaching into the darkness, and preparing to emit electricity at any time.

As she was on her guard for a moment like that.

An applause coming from the darkness

Clap clap clap clap-.

"Crazy bastard."

She shot the electricity forward after confirming that the opponent was also not normal.

As if there was nothing in front of her, the electricity just cut through the air.

But the constant sound of applause.

Then, soon someone popped out of the darkness.

"Hello, Ms. Choi Sehee."

The person who came out saying hello to her

A man wearing a black hat, a black robe, a black cape and a mask covering his eyes.

And the man, she knows.

"…Egostic?"

The moment she called his name with a frown, he paused.

He soon opened his mouth again and asked her.

“Do you know me?"

"Of course, I know you. You come out whenever I turn on the TV."

"……I didn't know you knew me."

He murmured in a low voice for a moment, coughed in a dry cough,

"Well, then I don’t have to take long for the introduction. Choi Sehee, do you want to work with me?"

"……I can't keep up with the story right now. You followed a person at night and suddenly you're asking her to be partners? Come on."

"Oh, mu. I guess my explanation was a little insufficient. So, I mean, terrorism."

"…You’re telling me to work on terror attacks with you?"

"Yes. Do you have any thoughts of terrorizing together?"

"A fucking crazy bastard. Get lost!"

Choi Sehee fired electricity at him in anger.

She already has a shitty life, but now she can’t believe that she’s being casted as a terrorist.

However, the electricity she fired only cut through the air again as he evaporated from his seat.

And then again the voice behind her.

"Think carefully. Didn't you always fall into great pain because you couldn't show your ability? If you're with me… You won't have to hide your instincts…"

"Get out of here!"

Although, she's back at it.

He just disappeared in front of her eyes.

"I'll see you again next time. I hope you think about it until then."

"Fuck off!"

She looked back, huffing and puffing.

Again, an empty alley.

So, in the alley where nothing could be heard but her breathing, she sighed again.

"Haa… Shit. I've been through all sorts of things in my life."

The girl spits out a curse and hits a stone by the side of the road for no reason. Even if she doesn't become a hero, she has no intention of becoming a villain. She never thought a terrorist would come into contact with her. She’s speechless.

Feeling annoyed, she looked back for a moment to see if anyone was following her, and then walked back home.

He’ll come back next time? He’s saying bullshits then, she'll just turn his face into an electric grill.

With her orange hair fluttering like that, she stepped forward.

"…."

As she continued to walk, she looked up at her hands.

It felt really good when she threw her power at him earlier, generating electricity from her hands. She feels a sense of liberation, and she feels like she’s opening my heart.

It feels like the things that have been good for her have been blown away for a moment.

"……"

Does he mean that she can always feel this sense of freedom if she’s with him?

"Fuck. What bullshit."

She spoke ill of herself again, then moved her steps.

She’s not such a sabotage, a psychopath.

She will never be a terrorist under any conditions, ever.

***

"Da-in, how’s your plan to recruit a new colleague?"

"Oh, that? It's going smoothly. I think she’s denying it now, but it won't take long for her to fall."

I held up a spoonful of cup noodles.

It's hard to teleport often, so I have to fill your stomach.

I turned on my smartphone while slurping noodles.

And I went into the Stardus fan cafe, where I’m the manager.

That’s right. The life where I organize Stardus’ posts after a long day of work. This is perfect.

Next to me, Soobin was looking at me with a complicated expression. Why…?

Anyway, I thought about Choi Sehee. She's the electrician I've decided to recruit.

Considering her rejection, her stubborn attitude of not wanting to terrorize me.

Hmm.

A week would be enough.
