Ep. 143 Behind the Scenes of the Heroes
[Brazilian wave and global invasion, with two disasters in a row, the world is shaking. As the atmosphere of fear spreads, security worldwide has become unstable, and terrorism by villains has become more frequent. In response, the government has declared Japan and other countries ‘Travel control countries’.]
[Meanwhile, South Korea is relatively calm, and the association said it resulted from its efforts to stabilize the social atmosphere. Netizens responded that they didn’t know Egostream was an association…]
South Korea was peaceful.
Of course, only South Korea is peaceful, the world is about to become a mess.
[Controversy continues, with the U.S. National Assembly saying that all people with superpowers should be investigated and registered with the association. As unregistered people can become villains, those who have superpowers among all citizens are forced to register and will get punished if they violate the law…]
The countries are overdoing it, international associations are overworked, and companies are collapsing.
On the contrary, some people benefited.
“Mr. Choi, did you buy it there?”
[Yes, we took over. From now on, we plan to change the name from Nihonsan Tech&Ross to Yuseong Tech&Ross.]
“Thank you. Please continue to use your strength like this.”
[I’ll do my best.]
-Hang up.
“Phew…”
Lee Seola sighed after hanging up the phone.
So busy. It’s not enough even if there were ten of me.
In an untimely global crisis, Lee Seola had a better time than anyone else.
A situation in which the value of companies is gradually decreasing due to repeated breakdowns of security and terrorism abroad.
Of course, she was shopping for foreign companies with the capital she had reserved in advance, as the only exception was Korea, which was peaceful without any crisis. She’s bought so many tricks that she’s short of bullets now.
“Is this enough?”
Roughly finished, she leaned against the back of the chair. She sighed but still had a smile on her face. No one knows if this opportunity will come again, she has done enough for now. However, she couldn’t take over many Korean companies since the stock price was well defended as they had less damage… But somehow…
“…Really, what would have happened to me without Da-in.”
Lee Seola muttered without realizing it.
Egostic. Thanks for letting me know in advance, so I could prepare everything in advance.
…And isn’t it a relief that only South Korea could avoid the disaster in the first place?
…Seriously, Egostic, what would have happened without him.
Such an assumption was appalling to think about.
First of all, Seoul was destroyed by Behemoth and HanEun Group, and Wolgwanggyo hit the last hit, ending it neatly. Maybe Seoul was completely ruined, and Busan could have become the capital.
“Wait, that’s good…”
If the Blue House or the National Assembly had been moved to Busan, she could have already taken control of the government. Since Yuseong Enterprise is based in Busan… South Korea may have fallen into her hands a long time ago.
“…But that’s not it.”
But she shook her head. Lee Seola herself wanted to have a complete and intact Korea, not a country that was ruined.
She can say that she could conquer Korea easily in a world without Egostic.
..Maybe the world itself wouldn’t be happy.
Rather, would she have been rather distressed in the absence of a goal?
Well, it’s all a ridiculous delusion.
Fortunately, there was an ego stick, so Korea is still running smoothly today.
“…Egostic.”
In fact, even when Egostic first appeared, she wasn’t interested in him. She just thought he was one of those common villains.
But as time passed, she began to see his works.
She changed her mind.
Now, seriously, she thinks he’s great.
He knows all the information she doesn’t even know, and the way he gathers only talented people, that is, powerful people and has power on the bare ground, is simply something she should emulate. On top of that, he has already prevented South Korea’s crisis several times.
No one knows why he claimed to be a villain, who seems to be trying to protect his country more than anyone else, but it probably has a deep meaning. Da-in seems to know almost everything.
But the problem is that his attention is all focused on Stardus.
“…..”
…Of course, as time went on, she thought she might as well have him look back rather than Stardus, who didn’t even know where he lived.
But on top of that, there are many villains next to him.
But it doesn’t matter, the biggest problem is that she made a big mistake last time and he was disappointed in her.
“….Ok, let’s just stay put for now.”
…But she is the only hero who knows who he is, so there is still a possibility. Probably…
Lee Seola, trying so hard to console herself, momentarily hardened her face in a certain thought.
“…Come to think of it, Shadow Walker, he’s also…”
Stardus almost guessed that Egostic had been knocked down when the Wolgwangyo monster event occurred.
Lee Seola, who was surprised inside, was trying hard to cover him.
Shadow Walker deluded Stardus by testifying strongly that no one had seen him then.
“…Did he really not see him?”
Egostic was certainly there. If he had looked around there, he couldn’t have missed it.
…Why did he insist so strongly that he didn’t see him?
After waking up for a while, she took a wine bottle from the cabinet, filled it with grape juice, sipped it to clear her mind, and carefully guessed.
“Maybe…”
She couldn’t think of it because she was busy then, but now that she thinks about it…
Maybe Egostic approached him, just like her.
That’s a possibility that it was Egostic who approached him first…
“…Maybe I should talk to Shadow.”
She made up her mind.
Let’s see, where is Kim Ja-hyun’s phone number?
***
[…Yes. So, it’s certainly possible that Egostic negotiated with Latis behind the scenes. I don’t know if we luckily avoided terrorism because of that or if it was all predicted by Egostic.]
“What do you mean you don’t know? Of course, it’s all thanks to Egostic.”
After walking his girlfriend to her house,
The hungry Shadow Walker Kim Ja-hyun was eating kimchi fried rice alone at home.
He muttered while watching TV.
As he already knew Egostic was a hero, he wasn’t surprised to watch the news.
He knows that the time-limited villain, Egostic, is protecting Korea by sacrificing his body.
“Wow… Egostic, what the hell are you?”
As he recalled Egostic bleeding on his terrorism broadcast with Stardus last time, he sighed without realizing it.
He expected the situation after seeing Egostic’s rumor about his health problems. Do people know? He’s not just under the weather, but already a dead end.
But nevertheless, let alone despair for the rest of his life, he’s a man who is willing to devote himself to his country.
“…Egostic, when you pass away as a villain, I will surely tell you the truth and restore your honor. On the honor of being a real man.”
He made a commitment to himself.
So far, Egostic hasn’t said it because he doesn’t seem to want to identify himself for some reason.
He didn’t know why the guy did that, but he later realized as he checked the wiki about Egostic.
“You. You love Stardus.”
Debut with Stardus, still looking for Stardus.
He realized it as he saw it. This is Egostic, he likes Stardus.
However, even if he gets her, he has a time limit, so he kills his own feelings and lives like that because it would be a short love.
“Oh, my. Such pure love… He’s a real man.”
Kim Ja-hyun, Shadow Walker firmly believes Egostic is a time-limited lover hero, regards his guess as a fact.
Then he got a call.
“…Lee Seola. Why is she calling?”
Kim Ja-hyun answered the phone with curiosity.
[Kim Ja-hyun. You met Egostic, right?]
He received a shocking remark.
“…Hmm…”
[Don’t be wary. I’m on the same side. With him. So tell me.]
“…Yes, how did you know?”
[I knew it… Since that is the situation, let’s meet and talk.]
“Why?”
[Of course, for Egostic, to help him.]
“Aha. If so, cool.”
He agreed without hesitation
If he could help Egostic.
As such.
An informal meeting between the two among the only three A-class heroes in Korea was scheduled.
To help the A-class villain.

“…Who’s talking about me.”
“Da-in, stop picking your ears.”
“Da-in, do you want me to clean your ears for you?”
“What? No, thank you.”
I replied to Soobin, who made a joke with a sweet smile on me.
“I’m not kidding.”
“Haha…”
I guess it wasn’t a joke.
Anyway, that’s not the point. The next plan is important.
I started to think quietly while eating the peaches that Soobin cut for us.
“….”
…This is hurting my head. Should I go and take care of Stardus fan cafe first?
