Thump. Thump. Thump.
A man standing in the air against the backdrop of an exciting drumbeat heard from somewhere.
Wearing a black cape, a black robe, and a black magician’s hat that doesn’t rise in broad daylight.
Smiling behind a mask covering half his face, he soon shouted loudly at the camera.
“Hello, everyone! I, Egostic, the No. 1 most influential villain chosen by the Hero Association of Korea and the best villain chosen by Forbes, is here to see you. Nice to meet you!”
The man floated in the air against a large bridge, taking off his hat and greeting the camera like a medieval European style.
People’s reactions were crazy when he was on live nationwide through three broadcasters and YouTube.
The chat window of Youtube is officially transmitted by Egostic, which comes up so fast that you can’t see it with your eyes.
[Mango Stick! Mango Stick! Mango Stick! Mango Stick! Mango Stick! Mango Stick! Mango Stick! Mango Stick! Mango Stick! Mango Stick! Mango Stick! Mango Stick!]
[Is Egostic a God? Is Egostic a God? Is Egostic a God? Is Egostic a God? Is Egostic a God? Is Egostic a God?]
[Mom, I’m going to be a terrorist when I grow up! Mom, I’m going to be a terrorist when I grow up! Mom, I’m going to be a terrorist when I grow up!]
[Release Kim Sunwoo Release Kim Sunwoo Release Kim Sunwoo Release Kim Sunwoo Release Kim Sunwoo Release Kim Sunwoo]
[Let’s go~ Let’s go~ Let’s go~ Let’s go~ Let’s go~ Let’s go~ Let’s go~ Let’s go~ Let’s go~ Let’s go~]
[LOL is this that famous EGOSTIC? Wonder if there is eng sub]
[Fuck, the chat window is going crazy. Hahahaha.]
[It’s nice to see him after 4 months. Hahahaha]
[What is he going to do this time?]
[Mango punch! Mango punch! Mango punch! Mango punch! Mango punch! Mango punch! Mango punch! Mango punch!]
[What is that hat he’s wearing? Hahahahahaha.]
[韓国ビランのレベルwww 私たちの大日本帝国に比べて劣るwwww]
[The Hero Association is crying while preparing for the company dinner. Hahahaha.]
Fuck, even the foreigners are watching now. Hahahaha Look at the comments]
[So where is that??????]
“Nice to meet you all. Everyone. Yes, I’m at Mapo Bridge. Wow, it’s nice to be at the Han River after a long time. The first time I made my debut was here, at Han River. It feels like yesterday that I cause the terror attack, but it’s already been almost a year? Time really flies.”
[Was it already a year ago?]
[He did one in spring, but it’s already winter now.]
[A year with Mango Stick. Hahahahaha.]
[There’s a brat who went hiding for 4 months in a year.]
[He caused three large-scale terrorist attacks within a year. Fuck. Hahahahaha. ]
[I guess he’s doing something today, but if we include this, it’s going to be the fourth one!
[You,,, villain,,, You bad guy… How dare you show your face…!~~ You brat]
[The elder also knows how to type on YouTube.]
“Anyway, ta-da! To tell you about the situation, there’s a bomb on the Mapo Bridge below me! Heroes and the Association, if you do something nonsense… You know, right?
Egostic shook the detonator in his hand toward the camera.
[Entering the 516731461th season of detonation.]
[He’s always carrying a bomb around.]
[I heard that the civil servants tested explosives every morning, lunch, and dinner after the last ship bombing]
[Why would civil servants do that? They’ll hire part-timers to do it]
[Mango Stick create jobs]
[Am I the only one who can see Mango’s beautiful features? Doesn’t he look too sexy?]
[Mango Oppa, I’m going to die TTT]
[I’m going to die. Fuck, I’m at Mapo Bridge]
[Fuck, aren’t the brat above in danger? Hahahaha.]
“Ahem. Heroes, if you don’t want to see a broken bridge, you’d better stay still. Actually, Stardus is the only hero who can stop me, right?”
He coughed a little, and then continued.
“Yes, I recommend you to stay away. I’m a little impatient, so I don’t know what I will do if I see you.”
He once again fiddled the detonator as a warning.
[Stardus’ Retirement Announcement…]
Though his body paused a little when he saw something.
His mouth opens naturally, as if nothing had happened again.
“Everyone…”Oh, before that, wait a minute. Hmm… wait a minute. Bang!“
A loud roar from both sides of the bridge as he speaks.
At the same time something collapsed, blocking both ends of the bridge.
At the same time, he took out a large loudspeaker from somewhere and shouted loudly at the cars passing the bridge below.
“To all of you who are on Mapo Bridge!!! Please just stop there!!! If you do something weird, I’ll shoot you right away!!”
Cars slowly stopped pedaling at full speed, as Egostic warned them.
He didn’t attack them right after he appeared, but as he gave them some time, there weren’t many cars..
Only two cars that didn’t hear the radio or had a bad timing are standing together.
Having said what he had to say, Egostic blew the loudspeaker back somewhere and grinned at the camera.
“I’m sorry. Isn’t terrorism more enjoyable when there are audiences? I stopped talking for a while because I was casting a guest on the spot.”
[He grabbed the people who were running well and invited them as guests. Fuck Hahaha.]
[Crazy brat… Crazy brat… Crazy brat… Crazy brat… ]
[What did the people in those two cars do wrong? Hahaha]
[There’s no one died in his attacks before, so it doesn’t matter]
[Isn’t it a reward? It’s a thrilling exciting terror experience!]
[I should’ve gone]
[I don’t know if the world is weird or if I’m weird whenever I look at the comments]
[You’re weird]
“Yes, yes, now that we’re all set. I’m going to talk to you for a second.”
At the same time, they turned off the exciting music that was played.
A suspense background music that seemed to appear on a white tower began to come out.
At the same time, I’d like to know a little bit Egostic that spoke up in an anchor tone
“Everyone, do you know my name? Yes, it’s Egostic. By the way, everyone, do you happen to know where my name came from?”
“Egoistic, which is similar to Egoistic, which means selfish in English. The reason why I named it like this… This is because I became a villain because I wanted to prove how selfish humans are.”
[He read the selfish gene so deeply wwww]
[Who named the “selfish” gene as a must-read for teenagers?]
[It’s Richard Dawkins’ fault]
“Well, anyway, I’m here to live up to my name. How selfish humans are, let’s do an experiment! If humans are selfish, I win. If humans are not as selfish as I thought, it’s my loss.”
All the viewers were surprised to hear Egostic say so far-reaching words.
He wants to experiment with selfishness? How?
Whether people are wondering or not, Egostic is starting to sound nonsense.
“This bridge. Ah, Mapo Bridge. It’s really big and beautiful. How much did it cost to build this? Would it have cost tens, hundreds of billions?”
He’s asking the price of Mapo Bridge out of course.
“But with so much money, isn’t it conveniently used by citizens? Without this bridge, the road would have been so blocked.”
Then, his eyes once again turned to the camera with an evil smile.
He spoke up.
“Well, let me explain this attack.”
“It’s simple. If you send me the address, link, or text me your account number, I will give you $100.”
“I’ve already hacked all the computer networks, so I don’t have to worry about getting caught. If you’re just 19 years old or older in Korea, send me your account and I’ll send you $100 without asking or arguing. It’s free money.”
“However.”
“By 7:00PM. tonight, if there are more than 5 million people who have gotten $100 won from me.”
“I’m going to blow it up along with the people on this bridge.”
“Everyone, make a choice.”
“Is it $100 for free? Or I’m going to blow up this bridge.”
“Is it so altruistic that humans can easily give up about $100 for others? Or am I a selfish person who takes money with me?”
“Well, it’ll be revealed today.”
“So! Let me introduce myself. A new concept, a terrorist attack where the whole nation participate. Are you going to choose the bridge or $100 for a stimulus check? ‘The nation’s choice 1vs10’. We shall begin now!!!”
At the same time, loud applause can be heard in the background of the video.
The video ended with Egostic that smiled and greeted the screen against the background of the bridge.
After that, the blank screen only shows every method for them to send account numbers to all Egostic, such as sites, phone numbers, Kakaotalk, blogs, and Twitter.
And at the top of the screen, the time remaining was set until 7:00 PM.
[8h 56m 45s]
[8h 56m 44s]
[8h 56m 43s]
…
In front of such a quiet video, a comment was posted on the chat window that made everyone’s hearts.
[This is crazy.]
Just like that, on a normal day in South Korea, the [Big Money Era] has been opened.
***
“……”
On the riverside, you can see at a glance
Stardus clenched her teeth as she watched the place surrounded by police, blocking everyone’s entry and being placed in a confrontation.
Egostic.
She knew that one day he would terrorize again.
But she didn’t expect this kind of terror.
Staring at the bridge, she feels very bad.
Of course, he’s doing such a thing and terrorizing the public.
…This is not the first time that he didn’t call her out during his terrorism.
Of course, it’s not. But it doesn’t matter whether he calls her out or not.
She doesn’t care about that.
She’s certainly not concerned about that.
She repeated herself.
“…..”
Ha. But
Until now, he’s always called her out.
Why did he suddenly tell her not to come this time?
“I can’t believe it…”
So she muttered to herself.
Words that no one will ever hear, alone.
Even so.
Last time, he called her to save the plane.
Is he going to do that this time, too?
She doesn’t think he’s going to rule herself out at all.
She just kept thinking about it.
She doesn’t even know why she does it. That useless thought.
***
“Da-im, are you going to mention Stardus in this terrorist attack?”
“Hmm? Uh, I’m not going to do it. If we blow up the bridge, she’ll just have to fly in and get a car. This time, it’s not for the Stardus trials, so you don’t have to call her out.”
Stardus will like it better if he doesn’t bother her.
