I Became The Villain The Hero Is Obsessed With

interested in you.
Yes, a lot.”

Whether I spoke or not, she was just staring at me with her mouth shut.
Is she giving me a chance to talk first?

Under her silence, I continued.

“A late bloomed hero, who went from class C to class A.
A person who doesn’t compromise with any evil with her own justice and belief.
You’re the representative symbol of a human hymn.
Personally, I deeply respect you.”

She looked annoyed at my hidden face behind the mask.
She still looks pretty though.

“If you’re going to talk nonsense, just shut up.
What are you trying to say?”

Oh, I just wanted to compliment you on the nationwide live broadcast.

If I do this, more people will recognize my Shin Haru!

Anyway, I should stop fanboying.

It is time for the real show.

“Now now.
Here’s what I want to tell you.
If you open the lower right drawer in the captain’s room on both ships, you will find the detonator.”

“The detonators are used to blow the other ships off.
Not your own boat, the other one!”

Stardus’ face wrinkled at the end of my words.
Yeah, she should understand what I said, right?

I continued with a gentle smile.

“Okay, the way to save everyone’s lives is simple.”

“No one has to press the detonator.”

“The time limit is 30 minutes, and you cannot press the detonators of two ships.”

“Instead, as soon as you press the button of one ship, the other ship will go BOOM… Oh, my.”

“Well, the people on the ship that press the button first will ‘100%’ be able to live.
So it’s not necessarily a bad thing.”

She still does not seem to understand.

Right, she probably thinks that no one would ever press the button. 

I grinned and said to her,

“Miss Stardus, who loves justice so much and always praises human beings.”

“After this, I hope you’ll realize how evil and selfish humans are.”

After that, I clapped and shouted out at the same time.

“As I said earlier, the time limit is 30 minutes.
Well then, good luck everyone!”

I turned the camera off as soon as I ended my sentence.

And then I switched to the images of the cabins on two ships.

“Now, shall we watch it together in this special seat?”

She glared at me, but I just shook two detonators in my hand at her.

Be well-behaved!

I showed the images of the cabins on the screen with a beam projector installed on the roof wall.

Stardus stared at it with an indifferent expression.

“Do you think people will move as you intended?”

She shot me with her words.

Oh, perhaps she thinks that people are quiet and calm so they do not even want to press the buttons, right?

“Well, you’ll see.”

I said with a smile. 

The video started to play on the wall.

Understanding the situation on the ships, her face soon began to stiffen.

[Press the button!!!! They’re going to kill us all! We have to press it first to survive!]

The sight of people bawling out.

Why is it the opposite of what you expected?

Of course.

I put a few agitators there.

If they scream at everyone and tell them to press the button, the person next to them will also think that they should press it as a tuning effect.

My plan is to use people’s anxiety by screaming and making them believe they will die if they do not press it.

Hahaha.

[Button!! Button!! Button!! Button!! Button!!]

Watching her annoyed expression at the unexpected situation, I grinned.

I am a professional villain.

I have to plan things in advance so that everything goes the way I want, duh?

Now, let’s see what kind of chaos will happen, shall we?

“Stardus.
Don’t you think it’s a little different… Haha, from what you expected?”

Gosh, I should not laugh.

But why is it fun to tease her?

“Helicopter! Did you prepare the helicopter?”

“Yes, we have already prepared it beforehand so I can move in case the ships explode.”

“Phew, there is nothing else besides that, right?”

“Other B-class heroes have also been assigned near the Han River!”

“I don’t think they’ll be useful.
Ha, there is no answer from Stardus since she’s being held there.”

The Hero Association of Korea’s Control Center.

In this crowded place with countless agents, the 50-year-old president of the association was wiping sweat from his bald head with a towel.

Just when he was thinking that things have become peaceful again after a while, but then why is this happening? 

Still wiping his sweat, he muttered as he watched the situation of the cabins on the screen.

“…But why are they making a fuss about pressing a button? If you don’t press it, you’ll live, right?”

“…I don’t know either, President.”

“Oh, gosh…”

[I’m not going to press the button!!!!!]

The situation in the cabins was still a mess.
