CH 187

Pop. Pop. Pop.

Countless lights embroidered the dark night sky.

As if a flashlight exploded, the place where the devil was standing exploded with white light.

[ARGHHHHHHHHH—-!]

In line with this, a beautiful harmony was heard.

Yeah, the sound of the devil melting. He’s been hit by the holy cannon’s beam dozens of times, so it definitely melted him.

While the devil, who has a visual like he would destroy any country, was melting, I turned my back on the art of light and thanked the audience for watching my show.

“Thank you. Thank you.”

[Urghhhhhhh—- Ah—-!]

*

[Hahahahahahahaha fuck]

[He’s a psychopath hahahahahahaha]

[Aren’t we supposed to say thank you instead? Hahaha]

[When did he prepare that? Hahaha]

[The devil is slowly melting down~ (Really melting)]

[(Gif of Jerry saying hi)]

[What? Is it really over? That easy???]

*

Meanwhile, I look at the chat window. Uh-huh. It wasn’t easy. It was so hard to prepare for this.

With that in mind, I watched the devil melting in the light, screeching as if watching a campfire. As expected, I’m glad that I have a clear weakness. In the original, I always noticed my weaknesses after the incident, so I left nothing but emptiness… But in this world, fortunately, I have all that knowledge.

I watched the devil melt well under the moonlit night sky, feeling elegant.

…He’s probably the last mid-boss villain of this phase, and almost the last big event. The next main event will be Wolgwanggyo.

We’ve walked a long way.

I muttered to myself in spite of myself.

When I suddenly fell into this world, I wondered what the hell I was supposed to do, but I’ve already come this far. Now, if we stop the terrorist attacks by all names, including the next Wolgwanggyo’s portal incident and the gate incident, we can really take a break now. Of course, after leveling up Stardus well…

[… I’m…Urghhh willl… be back…]

“Oh, it must be over now.”

When I was so lost in thought, it wasn’t until I heard the voice of the devil from somewhere that I got up from my seat. 

After instructing Seo-eun to stop the offensive, I approached her and saw only the demon king who turned into a black puddle after leaving his last will. It went well.

“He said… ‘I’ll be back’…” 

Pfttt.

I laughed in spite of myself.

Yeah, no, you can’t come back. Live properly again in the afterlife.

I gave a short silent prayer to the devil who showed such a great impact. It’s kind of absurd that he died as soon as he was released from the seal, but he’s going to die anyway like in the original? He’d be dead anyway if I hadn’t. He would just do more damage to Korea.

…But now that I think about it, it’s funny. Is it a tradition for children under the moon god to die as soon as they are sealed and released. This devil and Eun-wol in the original work.

Well, anyway, the conclusion seems to have finally crossed a huge obstacle.

Thinking like that, I rummaged through the remains of the dead devil in my holy spear. As expected, the moonstone is visible. I knew this was gonna happen. There’s no place these Wolgwanggyo guys don’t have their hands in.

I roughly smashed it with the spear secretly so that the camera could not see it, and only turned away as it turned into powder and flew away.

“Yes, everyone! This is the end of today’s broadcast, as we caught this strange man interfering with someone else’s. I hope you’re all nervous because I’ll be back with a high-quality terror that’s incomparable to this low-quality terrorism. Thank you!”

*

[What???????]

[No! Why do you end it here?!!!!!!]

[As soon as he stops the villain from destroying a city, he leaves… Is this… a villain?]

[What high-quality terrorism? Fuck hahahaha]

[This villain saved the country]

[Mango Stick! Mango Stick!]! Mango Stick! Mango Stick! Mango Stick! Mango Stick! Mango Stick! Mango Stick! Mango Stick! Mango Stick! Mango Stick! Mango Stick! [Mango Stick! Mango Stick!]

[We’re living in the era of Egostic]

[Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you]

Leaving the crazy chat window behind, I turned off the camera and got ready to go home. It doesn’t matter since they’re going to talk about it fiercely for a few days and forget again… Oh man, I’m almost screwed today. I’m so tired since I haven’t used my body in a while. 

…But that’s not the problem now. 

I headed to Stardus who collapsed earlier. When I saw her earlier, she looked fine except  looking a bit tired, but just in case.

What I saw back then was her still lying leaning on one side of the wall of the ruins in anticipation of that posture earlier. I must have lost my mind by closing my eyes. Wait, don’t tell me?

Just in case, I ran fast and sat on one knee on the ground to see if she was breathing. Phew, thankfully, she’s resting well. Of course she is, but you never know. If things went wrong, I would go down to the underworld and rescue her.

Thinking of that, I looked down at her, who was breathing heavily, beaten …How can a person be so pretty even when she is covered in dirt after a fight, she’s truly amazing. Is this the main character buff or something?

Anyway, she must have had a hard time, because she even fainted. After becoming strong in the second half of the original work, she couldn’t move my body no matter how hard she tried, but I guess it was really hard today.

..I mean, she’s had a hard time today. She only ate an energy bar in the morning and then had to beat all those devils underground, even fighting with the devil in the evening. I can’t believe that she accomplished all this in one day. It’s really different from the original.

“…Good work, Stardus. As expected… from you. Haha.”

I rose from my seat, whispering words that I could not hear to her. All right, let’s go. I think the association staff will be here in a few minutes. And I can hear the helicopter sound. I think the broadcasting stations are getting closer because the situation is over.

As I was about to get up and leave under such a cool night breeze, I suddenly saw Stardus lying alone in the ruins… It’s already cold, so if I leave like this, she might catch a cold? Of course, the association will come soon, but… in the meantime. Worried is worried.

After thinking for a moment, I soon took off my cape on my back and covered it over Stardus. Well, I have a lot of capes at home.

Of course, I wonder what she’d think when she woke up to see this… It wasn’t a big problem because I think her mind-set of hating villains would think circuit. ‘Are you mocking me for lying here without doing anything?’, wouldn’t she think so and be angr?

Thinking of that, I smirked unconsciously, then rose again, turned my back on her, and walked away. To teleport. Oh, I’ll have to get some more fluids when I get home.

With that thought at the end, I teleported.

I didn’t know at the time as I left right away.

“….”

After I left, Stardus moved slightly.

-Fiddling.

Holding the cape on top of her with one hand.

***

[Shocked! K-Villain Egostic protects Korea again? His unexpected ability made netizens ‘Shock!’. We live in the age of Egostic… All the popular videos in real-time are swept by Egostic.]

[Shocked! Egostic only hit the last one? Stardus, who’s done everything alone, from collapse of the devil’s castle to the devil elemination! “Korea is safe because there is Stardus.” Why did an anonymous staff from the association praise Stardus in tears? Her good personality is being highlighted again!]

Korea, which managed to prevent the city from collapsing and the country from collapsing again today, was heated by the issue from the next day.

In fact, it’s not once or twice that the country almost collapsed and miraculously survived, but the media always print new and thrilling articles every time they go through it. Of course, the scale of the self-proclaimed devil was enormous this time, so it was natural to think about it. Many people said that the scene where the devil collapsed in the middle of downtown Seoul, and black and red clouds gather and his red eye glows gives them goosebumps even now.

Anyway, the devil died and the Trade Center, which turned into the devil’s castle, returned to its original state as soon as the devil died, all the black sticky liquid disappeared. Of course, they need to rebuild the ones that were smashed by the fight… But this is pretty good.

When the country regained its peace, the topic of conversation was, of course, Egostic and Stardus, who prevented this terrorist attack.

[[Exclusive] Could the terrorist group “Wolgwanggyo” that produced the Moonlight Shaman be related to this terrorism? Reporter Chae Nayoung’s exclusive report!] 

Of course, there were genuine people trying to get to the bottom of the attack, but the public was not very interested in the past.

So far, terrestrial broadcasters have been playing infinite videos of poor Egostic, who is a villain and has no portrait rights, and videos of Stardus’s performance have been uploaded like crazy under the direction of the president of the association, who ghostly grasped the rise in the hero and association popularity.

On top of that, the number of subscribers, whether it’s Mango Union or Stardust, is soaring side by side, and lawmakers immediately asked the issue and asked the association headquarters to petition for the promotion of Stardus to S-level…

Days of such confusion.

I was resting in a peaceful big house, far from such a disturbance.

“Oh… The second Cathedral meeting is about to start, right?”

Until I look at the calendar.

Oh, it’s been a while since we went to see S-class villains around the world.

“I’ll see you again, old man Atlas.”

I put a piece of apple in Seo Jayoung’s mouth who was lying on the floor, and I also mumbled after taking a bite.

…It’s going to be fun.
