The Crazy Villain Regains His Sanity

Episode 363:

After making a pact with Hematoma, I came out of the world of consciousness.

[He came.]

Sure enough, Yongyong was circling around me like a puppy smelling food.

[Have you been to an imaginary world?]

“Uh.”

[I guess the conversation went well.]

Do you feel that? As expected, he had the wisdom of a divine beast.

[I sense a presence. It’s a sign full of excitement. Your intentions are more impure than anyone else’s…]

You don’t have to worry about that. Both me and hematoma are ready to deceive each other at any time. In a space just between us, the one who is deceived becomes a fool and the one who deceives and takes advantage is the winner.

He’s probably looking for an opportunity to stab me in the back.

Of course, I also plan to stab him in the back.

Since I hold the initiative, I have an overwhelming advantage.

Yongyong read my thoughts and made an absurd expression.

[What happened to the relationship between you humans?]

This is friendship.

[really? Is this the friendship I know?]

The word friendship does not necessarily have a positive meaning.

Anyway, we succeeded in drawing out the hematoma. Regardless of my purpose, he will be of great help in controlling the Gift Egos and supporting them in battle.

And at the last moment, it even served as an extra life.

At this point, it is no exaggeration to say that it is on the same level as the tree that gives generously.

[It’s a relationship I really don’t understand.]

I walked away, feeling somewhat awkward during the short time I was in the world of images.

The place where Argos and Hell Master are presumed to be is a place called the ‘Palace of the Sun God’, known as an Inca ruin in the past.

In the past, the Inca Tawantinsuyu claimed to be a descendant of the sun god and ran the largest empire in the Americas.

It is no wonder that the sun god, who had been told in mythology there, was established as a divine beast.

[It was a unique divine beast. It has never been revealed to the world. There is a saying that its power is so strong that just by appearing, it exerts a powerful influence on those around it, making it unheard of. I thought it would quietly protect its territory, but I never thought it would disappear like this.]

Yongyong also says he has never seen the sun god. However, it is said that it possesses enough power to burn everything around it just by existing.

Naturally, if the Hell Master swallows this, he will possess far greater power than he has now.

[If the gift was given by a divine beast, it will need to be supplemented. I’m serious about killing you.]

He said it to me as if he was warning me, but it wasn’t a bad move at all.

Because that was what I wanted too.

“But what kind of divine beast does the Hell Master’s gift come from?”

[I think it was probably a divine beast that controlled death.]

“What’s your name?”

[I don’t know either. [He never showed up.]

A few names passed through my mind, but I thought they had no meaning.

I was wondering if there might be some clue, but as expected, Yongyong is no help.

[It’s unfair.]

“If an ordinary human discovers the essence of a divine beast, can he take it immediately?”

[It’s impossible. Accepting it, digesting it, and manifesting it as your own are all separate tasks. It’ll probably take a lot of time to find it, right? Why do you ask when you know it too?]

Yes, as Yongyong said, I also know the truth.

I checked it just in case.

“Even if we discovered it, it would be impossible to put it to good use.”

I take advantage of that gap and attack my opponent.

From the beginning, I chose it because I knew that the essence of divine water was a bad food that was difficult to digest.

“Shall we go?”

* * *

“Headbreaker. And…”

“You’re here. It’s better than that, right?”

The Hell Master looked surprised as he saw Argos turning white.

Nevertheless, Argos’ expression did not change. Instead, he closed his eyes and tears flowed down his eyes.

“Heinz is dead.”

“….”

The Hell Master’s mouth closed. Blackhound Heinz is a man who has been assisting Argos since its most difficult times.

A talented person who has completed countless burdensome missions while remaining quiet.

The only ones who stood by Argos and established the hierarchy of the league were the Blackhounds.

A huge tree that seemed to be strong until the day it died fell.

For Sean Bailey, black hounds were annoying nags. However, one thing is clear: because of him, I was able to freely travel the world and search for the essence of the divine beast.

One of the few people in the world I could trust. He was a friend that I could have by my side along with Argos.

Naturally, the Hell Master’s voice became harsh.

“Who killed Heinz?”

“Berserker.”

“I’ll remember that name. “If you take out the headbreaker, he’ll be the next to die.”

He, who always smiled, swore. Then he looked at Argos, who looked confused and his blood had disappeared.

“You get out of here.”

“Are you going to kill Sean Headbreaker?”

“I have to kill him. “I can kill you.”

“I know that I haven’t completely absorbed the essence of the divine beast. And Headbreaker won’t miss that opportunity.”

Rather, the head breaker’s method is to wait until it has an attractive bait in its mouth, then catch an opening and pounce mercilessly.

“I knew that would happen, so I took only the amount I could digest. This is my battlefield. “You leave this place to me for a bigger dream.”

“okay.”

Argos began to leave his seat with unsteady steps.

“….”

The Hell Master, who was following behind, sensed the presence of disaster approaching him and curled up the corner of his mouth.

“Did you really want to kill me?”

An absolute powerhouse that has transcended humans, and a self that can kill even beings that have transcended humans.

Of the two, who will be left standing?

The Hell Master had no doubt that it was him.

“I’m looking forward to seeing what level of skill you will show, Head Breaker.”

After a while, Headbreaker appeared inside the Sun God’s temple.

* * *

When I entered the temple of the sun god, there were two signs I could feel.

But at some point, both signs disappeared and only one appeared in front of me.

Looking at his appearance, he was a handsome man who was between the stages of youth and middle age.

“Where is Argos?”

“Your opponent is not Al, but me.”

“It was stolen. Did he run away?”

“If you’re talking about running away, call it a strategic retreat for Dae-gye.”

I think the word run is a seizure button.

Seeing the guy jumping up and down, I hit him again.

“That’s called running away.”

“….”

Cracks spread across the Hell Master’s relaxed face.

After a while, he calmed down his expression and added a sense of politeness.

“It was hard to come this far. “I’ll deal with you now.”

There are these types of villains.

They are the type of person who thinks they are cool only when they can relax at any moment.

However, when one’s own strength does not work and one is forced into a crisis situation and faced with the risk of death, a person changes.

They often take a submissive stance by holding onto the leg of their pants to save their lives and saying that they will lick their shoes if they ask me to.

“I think we need to get rid of the obstruction first before that.”

Hell Master’s eyes were fixed on Yongyong next to me.

[uh? Can you see me? It’s fascinating.]

“There’s no way I, a hyena who was looking for the essence of a divine beast, wouldn’t know. A noble person does not fit into such a squalid place. “I hope you only hear about the results when you return.”

[Wait…]

Yongyong tried to say something, but as soon as the red airflow from Hell Master’s hand touched him, he was scattered into the air.

Even if it is a very small part of the divine beast, it is still a divine beast, so you can sense it and use your hands. It was amazing.

More than anything, the red airflow that shot out from the Hell Master’s hand was annoying.

“Is that your gift?”

“It’s a very trivial application. “I’m embarrassed to show that to our headbreaker.”

I felt a deep sense of confidence behind it.

From my perspective, it was just unlucky.

“So, you completed the gift by drinking the essence of the divine beast?”

“Shall I show you?”

“However much.”

The air between me and the Hell Master began to tighten.

* * *

[This is not an ordinary guy. Even in my last life, the fact that I was able to move around as I wanted without being tied to the league shows that I had that level of skill.] I thought it would

become quiet with Yongyong gone, but what took his place was Hematoma.

He endlessly shared the information he knew about the Hell Master in his last life.

[The three evils of the League, but not bound by the League. The League granted him infinite freedom.]

Rather than his notoriety as a villain, Hell Master’s identity was that he traveled around the world and appeared in unexpected places, occasionally showing outrageous inaction.

Contrary to his image as the leader of a villain group aiming to conquer the world, he has not committed any evil deeds.

Compared to Black Hound, who regarded American politicians as enemies, and Argos, who fatally wounded the party, Hell Master was an alien being.

[I thought the day would come when I would face a fatal blow to the Korean League branch. I thought he would be interested in strong men, but I was wrong. He was interested in the essence of Shinsu, not the strong.]

Naturally, there was no essence of Shinsu in Korea, so it was an area outside the Hell Master’s interest.

I have no intention of going out in search of the three evils of the League, but the blood vessel’s wish to join me at least once was dashed.

‘I said it was similar to me.’

When I received information about Hell Master, the most common story I heard was that he was similar to me.

Argos, who was called the Oracle and played a pivotal role in the party, and Blackhound, who was called America’s cunning murder weapon, were already famous names that resonated around the world even before they were united as a league.

However, Hell Master appeared like a comet without any sign, eliminated Mr. White, a teenage superhuman belonging to the party, and took over as a teenage superhuman and the three evils of the league.

It was a completely different way of appearing from other superhumans, who showed their presence through systematic education and brilliant talent from childhood.

“I’m curious, though.”

How did you become stronger by avoiding the attention of the world? You probably haven’t returned to the past like me.

Meanwhile, the tension between me and the Hell Master was growing tense.

Contrary to the faint smile on his face, he clearly looked like he was reading everything, including my body, my energy, and my thoughts, and was ready to give me a blow.

This boring standoff isn’t my thing. I swung my hand from bottom to top and fired a sniping force bullet at the Hell Master at the same time.

Faaah!

The moment the force bullet bouncing upward from below was fired in an irregular motion, the guy’s body seemed to blur, and then the force bullet just passed through the air.

The guy who immediately closed the distance swung his sword, and I also struck back with mines wrapped in my hands.

Quang! Kwasik! Kwazijic!

The dark red air currents and golden mines intertwined, causing a series of terrifying explosions.

The Force was full and well refined. Hell Master’s movements were also similar to those of a martial artist who mastered one field, unlike Black Hound, who mechanically destroys his opponents.

It stimulated my interest because it was a completely different type from the awakened people I had dealt with so far.

“Let’s hang out a little more.”

Hell Master also nodded, probably having similar thoughts.

I quickly closed the distance and went in, wrapping my hand around a mine and trying to grab his arm.

Rather, he didn’t back down and clashed with them, causing a collision.

Shoot!

When I put my fingertips together and cast a bladestorm, the guy’s back bent backwards nearly 90 degrees.

It was different from Black Hound, which was like a machine. Although he may have felt scared by the attack just a moment ago, he calmly stretched out his hand to me without showing any emotion.

The overall ability was at a similar level to Black Hound.

If there’s no gift, there’s nothing more special.

I heard from Yongyong that activating the instant death gift is not easy.

This is just disappointing.

At that moment, my instincts sent me a strong warning.

It was so intense that I instinctively moved and retreated without even having time to judge the situation.

A red air current passed through them. It was an energy that had been received without much damage until just a moment ago.

Now, the scent of absolute death was coming from that red air current.

This was Hell Master’s gift of ‘instant death’.

Although it failed, a smile appeared on the guy’s face.

“It’s a shame.”

“You’re making a fuss.”

But why?

I kept smiling.

“Do more of that.”
