Chapter 292:

As soon as she heard that there was a major terrorist attack in Busan, Stardus immediately took flight and headed there.

Her flight speed was already much faster than before, thanks to the Moonlight Church incident and the missile barrage from Egostic.

To protect Busan

The attack is believed to have been carried out by the North Atlantic Villainous Organization, Latis

And that it was carried out by Latis, who was friendly with Egostic and had promised to bring no terrorism to Korea.

Obviously, she was expecting him.

She flew fast and made it to Busan.

And what did she see?

?

The sea off the coast of Busan was white and frozen.

The waves were still rolling, and even the tsunami was frozen in place.

Well, its because Seola doesnt usually use her powers, but she can do it.

Before she could even kick it, she was filled with pride for her friend.

Stardus eyes took in the sight.

What?

In the middle of the frozen ocean in front of a giant icy wave, Egostic smiles and reaches out to the fallen Icicle to help her up.

What the hell, when did they get so close?

Of course, it didnt make sense for a hero and a villain to be close, but it didnt make much sense considering Stardus relationship with Egostic in the first place.

Add to that the fact that he had traveled all the way down to Busan to terrorize Seola in the past

and shed even had a dream where hed declared that Icicle would be his arch nemesis from now on.

.

Stardus stiffened at the thought, her body twitching.

Shed already seen the image in her mind of Icicle taking Egostic and laughing hysterically.

And here she was, unwittingly watching it, continuing that ominous thought.

.ah.

She turned her head, and their eyes met.

At the same time, Seola turned her head and locked eyes with Stardus and Stardus could see her flinch for a moment.

Why is she flinching?

Before she could even think about it, Egostic was quick to wave his arm at her.

Just like that, they were together, and Stardus was away from him.

The sight of him waving at her, still smiling It was a little too friendly for a villain who had seen a hero, but it wasnt a bad thing, so Stardus flew over to where they were.

Landing on the frozen sea in front of him, Stardus didnt open her mouth until they were close enough to hear each other, and then she spoke in a slightly shaky voice.

You. What are you doing?

In a slightly lowered voice, Stardus glanced over at Icicle.

Uh, Stardus. Hello?

And Egostic smiled, as casual as ever. So carefree, as if hed forgotten what happened in that labyrinth the other day.

Stardus, are you here?

And Seola smiled as she came, greeting her with the same gleeful smile, as if she hadnt just flinched.

Stardust looks back at her, and before he can say anything, Seola quickly opens her mouth to speak.

Stardus, did you see that I froze everything? Anyway, while I was stopping this, Egostic showed up. He said hes going to talk to the villain who caused this and try to stop it.

Yeah, right. Even though Im the villain, I still have to ask why my acquaintance is suddenly acting like that. Im just helping out this time, its a temporary cooperation like we used to have.

Egostic replies with his trademark smile.

Seola and the two of them took turns speaking rapidly to each other, and it was a perfect match.

Of course, I was the only one who got wet, and Stardust, who was wearing a hero suit, didnt seem to notice whether the suit was waterproof or not. Of course, her hair was soaked and stuck to her head, but she still looked beautiful. So

Yeah. This is not the time to think about this. I should be thinking about Ariel.

And just as I was thinking that, Stardus suddenly turned to me and said.

Its in there, isnt it?

With that, she pointed to a rather large, circular sphere of water.

Yeah, I think so.

I replied.

She nodded, and suddenly grabbed my hand.

Her hand was wet and clammy.

As we stood there, mice clinging to each other, she looked back at me and said.

Were going in like this, so hold on tight.

What? Uhhh

With that, I held on to her hand, and flew through the air with the sensation of my body collapsing in an instant.

-Koo-koo-koo-koo-koo-koo.

We went through the sphere like that, hitting the water like a waterfall.

No wonder my already wet body was even wetter.

Uh-oh.

What we saw was a huge circular dome of water in the sky.

Egostic?

It was Ariel with blue hair, controlling the storm from the center of the sphere.

Yes, Ariel. Its me.

I replied, taking off my hat and running my hand through my damp hair.

Ariel?

Stardus stared at the two of us, scratching her head.

Ariels expression darkened for a moment as she looked at Stardus.

Ariel, I dont know why youre doing this, but I think you should talk to your brother

My brother. I know.

Ariel interrupted me and suddenly said that.

Her hands clenched into fists, she looked at me and said, her eyes slightly watery.

My brother is dating her.

Huh?

I ask, stunned by the suddenness of the conversation.

What?

Stardus, next to me, also reacted.

She looks back at me with a cold, hard face.

No, I could be dating a girl. Is that such a shock? Of course, Im not dating anyone, butbefore I could retort.

Ariels words were faster as she stretched out her hand.

With her.

And at her fingertips.

Huh? Me?

There was Stardus.

No, why is she under such ridiculous illusions?

That was the next thing Stardus wondered, after her sudden blush and embarrassment.
