Chapter 280: The End of the Break
Chapter 280: The End of the Break
After a day at the amusement park, I continued to relax. Honestly, I could have taken a month or two off waiting for the world to lose interest in me in the meantime.
...Of course, I don't know if it has yet.

[What would have happened if it wasn't for the Egostic?]
The Moonlight Gate terror that nearly destroyed the world at the end of last year.

If you walk outside of Seoul right now, you'll see new buildings going up all over the place but what would have happened if there was no Egostic?
First of all, everything is still fucked up. I can't write like this.
It was Egostic who found and defeated the Moonlight Lord who caused the disaster, and it was Egostic who stopped the monsters with the Egostream.
The Moonlight Maiden moved all the gates to the sea.
So Moonlight Maiden<<If she hasn't been in the Mango Family since the beginning, we'd be fucked.
I'm sure we'd still be in that basement watching the monsters roam around above.
Stardus would've been gone
Did you see how Moonlight Lord just opened a portal and sent Stardus away?
The camera was off so you can't hear exactly what was said, but if you listen to what he said afterward, right before he died, he just sent Stardus somewhere she'll never come back.
But then, when Egostic runs in and saves her, he has a brain freeze.
The best GOAT in the history of Korean heroes.
Honestly, if Stardus had disappeared from there, it would have been a terrible thing for Korea...If you look at the performance, most of the Seoul villains are actually Stardus one-man shows ㅋㅋ
3.Even if you block it later, Korea is fucked
Honestly, because my countryman, Egostic, blocked this as quickly as possible, even overseas, the Mangostick praise atmosphere, and the mango nation members increased, and there was nothing to say.
If he couldn't stop it, the scale of damage would have increased and there is no way that South Korea would have been free from the theory of responsibility lol.
How the hell do you manage the people, I'm 100% saying it's easy. It was a terrorist attack in Korea in the first place, so the scale of damage is also twice as big as other countries, but if it got to that point....
<Conclusion>

Just love it and you'll be fine.
Korea is just a mango holding country

[I really don't say this, but he's is a Goat]
[Mangostick! Mangostick! Mangostick! Mangostick! Mangostick! Mangostick! Mangostick! Mangostick! Mangostick! Mangostick! Mangostick! Mangostick!]
[I am a member of the Stardus Group, but I agree.]
ㄴ[But didn't Stardus do well this time?]
ㄴ[Honestly, if it weren't for Stardus, they would never have caught that giant monster lol]
ㄴ[It's just that we are now the golden generation of Korea's talent pool hahahaha. S-class talents Stardus on the left, Egostic on the right, along with Egostream and Shadow Walker. My heart is filled with grandeur.]
[Stardus and Egostic have chemistry and foreign countries see them as a love story......]
[Honestly, this terrorist attack was well prevented by the association. The sirens sounded like crazy from the start of the gates, so they put everyone in the underground bunkers and saved everyone...]
ㄴ[There is a 99% chance that they were also informed by Mangostick]
[Egostic broadcasting without me would have cost me half my life]
[Gains lifetime anti-scam rights Hahahahaha]

"....."
After a quick glance at the enthusiastic community response, I sighed.
...The problem with this post is, this isn't even my fancafe. It's just an auntie in a random comm.
'...Well, it's not really that important.'
I decided to let it go.
I'd already raised Stardus, stopped the Moonlight Church, and joined Cathedral as a villain. It wasn't about the masses anymore. A few terrorist attacks would quickly turn the tide against me. Maybe...?
As I thought about it, I suddenly remembered the pain in my head.
[...Sorry, backer, I, I, I... I think I need to take some time to think for a while]
I remembered that the woman who hosted the anti-Egostic broadcast I'd bought had contacted me to say she was having doubts and was taking a break from the show.
Before I could convince her otherwise, she apologized and took a dive, saying she was sorry.
...She'll be back, right?
"I guess it won't matter, though."
I muttered as I leaned back on the couch, crossed my legs, and sipped my tea.
The truth is, I was just being made out to be a big deal by a conspiracy of national TV networks and a few journalists, and it was no different in other countries. As I told Cathedral, other world-class villainous organizations helped the heroes stop this catastrophe.
So...Actually, by that logic, you're all heroes. You're all accomplices. You can try to tell me I'm not a villain, but you can't argue with me because you're just as guilty as I am.
Yeah. In the first place, people tend to put villains on a pedestal. Villains are people, people. Do you know why the vast majority of villains in this world commit acts of terrorism? It's either because they want attention, they're crazed killers, or they want to take over the world or all three.
All of these things are possible only if the world is alive and well, which means that our villains don't want the world to be destroyed by others.
In other words, even if any other villain had been in my position, they would have stopped the Moonlight Church without hesitation, so I had no shame at all.
"...But, Da-in."
"What?"
"Since they were all so enthusiastic about stopping it in the first place, isn't it rather conscience-free to not want people to praise you? There were already a lot of people who liked you."
After hearing my words, Seo-eun said that as if she was genuinely curious.
"...Well, that's not the point."
I said as I drank another cup of tea.
The important thing is that we averted a terrible disaster, and after that, we can just let the little things go....I've been thinking lately and so I took quite a break for a while.
...To the point where I was thinking, "Is it okay to rest like this? Shouldn't I be doing something? I'm still a villain, I should be doing something."
Well, I'm starting to think about the big retirement plan, and planning my next attack.
Just when I was starting to think about it something happened.
[Yes! Breaking news! An unidentified villain is currently terrorizing the people of this city, and the Association will be dispatching Stardus soon, the citizens are advised to stay away...]
A few months after the catastrophe, as the buildings were slowly going back up and society was stabilizing, the villains who had been waiting for the right time to strike again appeared.
I was on a terrorist vacation, so I took a break, but I'm sure other villains didn't, as a result terrorism began to increase once again...even more so than in the original.
The problem is that quite a few of the villains would have been eaten by the monsters in the original are alive now so I kept a close eye on these villains, but they were all weak, and in the face of our Stardus Fist.
So when I heard about the terrorist attack on TV, I wasn't too impressed. Just another Extra Villain 1, I thought.
...Yeah, that's what I thought.
"Wait...."
Until I saw his outfit on the broadcast.
Wait, that's him?
Quickly realizing the situation, I jumped to my feet and grabbed my cloak and mask.
"Huh? Where are you going?"
Seo Jae-young, who was lying next to me eating a snack, asked as I changed into my costume.
"Uh, I'm going to stop him."
It looks like I'm going to have to step up to the plate.
Gimmicky villains like that are more than what Stardus can handle.
Phew. I guess that's the end of my break. Yeah. I've rested long enough so I need to get back to work.
...Of course, I had an ominous premonition that if I stepped out now, the public would be all over me again, calling me a hero, but Stardus was more important to me than that.
Come to think of it, this will be the first time I've meet Stardus this year since last time.
...I'm sure she's a little nervous to see me again after we broke up last time, haha.
"Seo-eun, I'm going out for a while."
"...Huh? Where are you going?"
With that, I greeted Seo-Eun, who had just arrived in the living room, and teleported away after grabbing my camera.

"Hah..."
Hero Association office.
Stardus, who was preparing to deploy, sighed inwardly when she heard that another villain had appeared.
Lately, whenever she'd heard of a villain causing terror, she'd always gotten excited, wondering if it was Egostic and every time, she'd been betrayed.
She didn't expect much anymore....Of course, there was always a little bit of anticipation. No, she just wanted to meet him and talk to him, is that so hard? The comms don't even ring...
And so, once again, another unfamiliar villain appeared.
For that reason, she was still sighing and preparing to leave since she wanted to take care of him quickly and without much emotion.
'...He can't just show up out of nowhere.'
Little did Stardus know when she set out with such vain hopes.
She didn't realize that today was her chance to meet the person she'd been looking for.
