The Returning Supervillain Raises a Hero

Episode 26. Cantante (2)

“-The news is that mutant mice are appearing near the Han River in Seoul. Reporter Park Gyeon is on the scene. Reporter Park Gyeon?”

“Yes, I am now at Jamsil Hangang Park.”

“How is the situation there?”

“Even if you go inside a little bit, like this. Rats are gathering and gnawing at flowers.”

Four or five red mice scatter in all directions as the reporter climbs over the knee-high flower bed fence and pulls the grass away with a stick.

“It appears to be a different color than a normal mouse. Is that correct?”

“That’s right. There are two types of mice in Korea, black and brown, and there are no mice with this color in other countries.

pod.

Deep in the abandoned Han River underpass. When the light of the Holo TV disappeared, a man moved slowly in the dark.

“3rd grade.ね.”

There was anger in his muffled, muffled voice.

“Stupid Josensing bastards.”

Blood Curse is a masterpiece that was completed after countless trials and errors. It’s only 3rd grade, so I know the level of Korean guys.

In half a year, 30% of the population of Musimata Prefecture was killed. Japan thoroughly controlled the media to prevent this fact from leaking out, but neighboring countries already knew everything about my impressions and research process.

Except for Korea.

Immigration officers who let it pass by saying that they came for sightseeing will later vomit blood and do Togeza.

Preparation is over.

Since they succeeded in adapting to the environment, which was the biggest problem, the Blood Curse will multiply by thousands a day.

The day will not be far off when the Korean capital will be under the curse of blood.

according to his declaration.

Ten days after the news, Seoul began to be infested with mice. Relief work by mobilizing quarantine companies and heroes continued day after day, but even if they succeeded in reducing the scale, the seeds could not be dried, resulting in repeated proliferation and killing.

As the mutant rat became a hot topic every day, he came to the fore, claiming that he was the creator of Blood Curse.

“Did you ask what I want? It is not difficult. Dedicate Seoul, Korea to me.”

The video he uploaded contained brutal content in which innocent citizens were killed by rats, which made people angry.

“Human killer rat!”

Articles about him were posted on a number of communities, and the same word ran with swearing in all of them.

Killing Rat.

That became his villain name.

“It’s a bit.”

“You were the one who said you wanted to be a hero.”

“… What is voice modulation?”

“If you don’t like it that much. I do not care.”

“I will wear it. You can wear it!”

A hero costume from a century ago. Soybean helmet in a jolly. I must say that it is comforting to know that there is a chest protector and I am not embarrassed.

Even though I tried to think positively, I couldn’t help but let out a sigh.

“But, do you really do that?”

“Doesn’t it fit perfectly when you look at it?”

After the Killing Rat declared war on the conquest of Seoul, rats were introduced into the academy.

Nam Man-hyuk, who hates dirty things, played Hosik and Samsik for 24 hours to eradicate the rats that invaded his mountain.

In the process, he discovers a combination, which is why Kantante is wearing a hero costume now.

“I didn’t know the magic missile would hear me… .”

Kantante was training for traits at the mountain gym, and Samsik was intercepting rats on a container.

The timing of using the skill coincidentally overlapped, and, surprisingly, the magic missile was given the Bleeding attribute.

A mouse doesn’t die with one hit of a magic missile. Its power is so weak that you have to put at least two shots, or even four shots at most.

The magic missile with the bleeding property blew out blood and died with just one hit.

It wasn’t an ordinary synergy, so I asked Professor Magic about this.

“Even my older generation had many wizards of the Necro School who dealt with blood and curses. Long ago, when a civil war broke out over which magic was orthodox of the school. The anecdote of the combination of Extreme Dark Ball and Bloody Sphere is famous-”

To summarize Professor Magad’s two-hour lecture, which continued into the history of the Necro School.

The undead and blood had been a proven combination since ancient times. Then he draws a magic arrangement, such as a complex chemical formula, on the holoboard, which took an hour.

anyway.

Nam Man-hyuk remembered Cantante’s wish the other day as a reward for 30 minutes of climbing.

“I want to be a real hero.”

Hero is.

When you accept the tragedy given to you and do not turn away from the tragedy of others. I think I’m finally qualified to call myself.

In that sense, Cantante has the skills of a hero.

He borrowed a costume that had been left unattended in the corner of the Academy’s main warehouse and gave it to Cantante, and while he hated it, he wore a costume that looked like his grandmother would pop out when he took off his helmet.

Kantante’s eyes twinkle inside the tinted helmet goggles.

Rep. Yang Hyo-min fumbled through the drawer as a habit to take out the medicine due to the coming headache.

“Are you eating again?”

“What should I do? You should eat it before it gets any worse.”

He was a secretary who was worried about Rep. Yang Hyo-min, who had already taken medicine just two hours ago, but he had already put water in his mouth and mumbled, so he stopped drying it and followed the report.

“It is said that the Onnuri Party agreed to a temporary transfer.”

“Heh, you crazy bastards. The authors of the Republic of Korea lawmakers… . A secretary, what do you think?”

“I am just like you. It is clear that he is not sane.”

temporary transfer. It is scarier than the killing rats that still kill people that a playful proposal to temporarily delegate the mayor position and then withdraw it has passed through the party meeting.

“Because these guys are in politics.”

Tsutsui.

Rep. Yang Hyo-min kicked his tongue and entered the Janggo with his arms crossed. The secretary, who knew not to interfere at this time, quietly retreated.

After spending some time alone, Hyomin Yang pulled out her holophone and called the world’s busiest man.

“Brother, I will.”

-What’s wrong with our famous brother-in-law? How are you?

“Are you aware of my circumstances?”

-Uh-huh, I played it once. So what’s the dragon?

“I want to show the people my face once.”

What Yang Hyo-min lacks is his career. It was believed that the way to fill this gap in a short period of time was public interest.

He decided it was time to use the Seohia Principal Card, which he could only use once in his lifetime.

– For free?

“older brother. At times like this or when are you trying to help? Even if it’s not for me, my wife will be very disappointed.”

A small groan was heard from the other side.

– What do you want me to do?

“A picture of me recruiting foreign heroes. How is it?”

The number of heroes possessed is the national power. Bringing in heroes from other countries is a regular achievement in the political world that is always welcomed.

Just like other politicians, we need to bring in the awakening from a poor country and wrap it up as a hero. Hyo-min Yang was seriously planning to recruit professional hunters to hunt mice.

– That would be difficult.

“Yes?”

– It seems that our kids are preparing. If you want, there’s a name, … Well? hey, this is true Did he even have this in mind? I mean, it’s scary. nice.

Yang Hyo-min was puzzled by his muttering, so the explanation continued.

– Brother-in-law, do you know Nam Man-hyuk from Hana Orphanage?

“Hana nursery school… . Oh yes. I remember. First, they contacted me and asked me to donate. He was a crazy kid.”

As he recalls what he heard through a secretary, he chuckles.

– Call him.

That was the end of it.

Yang Hyo-min sees the current situation in which Seoul is dominated by one villain as a major turning point in her political life.

‘Depending on what you do here, it can be a flowery road or a thorny road.’

… Imagine that bowing your head to a 17-year-old will qualify you for the presidential election.

After finishing the arrangement, Yang Hyo-min called the secretary and called Nam Man-hyuk.

– I’m busy.

Disconnected in 1 second.

One secretary turned around hiding her expression as much as possible, and Rep. Yang Hyo-min.

“Hey, it looks like the phone didn’t ring properly. again… .”

– Oh, I’m busy!

bang!

The sound coming from the inside of the holophone is unusual.

-Ah, Mr. Who is it. Hyomin Yang? … Okay, let’s talk later.

Then it broke like before.

At the same time, a secretary’s holophone vibrates like crazy when a villain-related special alert pops up.

“sorry.”

“It’s okay. Is it a business phone? I will open it in open mode.”

[Emergency, the appearance of a forgotten hero? The mouse that dyed Seoul red. Annihilate the herd!]

[This reporter witnessed an unbelievable sight while covering the construction work of the heroes on the banks of the Han River.

Even when he appeared with a kid wearing an old hero costume and a hooded child on his back, it was thought that the grandmother, who had been a hero in the past, had come to help with her grandchildren.

However, with their appearance, the operation to clear the Jamsil Hangang Park was ended at once. Please check the attached video for details.]

“I will press.”

“I know.”

Rep. Yang Hyo-min watches the video being played with serious eyes with her hands in front of her nose.

A woman who wears old-fashioned costumes and sings while rushing around. The altered voice is strangely addictive.

As the song started, purple magic missiles shot up from behind and flew towards the mice, killing them one at a time.

Yang Hyo-min noticed a man holding a phone in the corner of the screen and wriggled his eyebrows.

“That man.”

“Yes?”

“Isn’t that Nam Man-hyuk?”

A boy looking at the holophone and making a trembling expression. A secretary who zoomed in on the screen shook her head.

“you’re right.”

His brain, which made Yang Hyo-min what he is today, worked fiercely, and after burning kilograms of fat, he came up with a strategy.

The secretary quickly brings out nutritional supplements to his emaciated appearance in an instant.

“Thank you. Don’t do this. Tell Nam Man-hyuk that it’s time to pay off the debt.”

“All right.”

A secretary followed Yang Hyo-min’s instructions without a doubt, as he had seen many of her thoughts.

As soon as I texted Nam Man-hyuk, the phone rang.

-debt? Are you done with giving away the white gift?

“Isn’t it a waste to write that now?”

Seong-gun doesn’t suit the turbulent times. My family is dying in the war, and no one pays attention when I say I am a good person.

-… Ah, let’s make a deal?

He is a boy with a keen eye.

“You can think of it that way. I will not hire you.”

– How long have you known?

immediate answer.

Without hesitation for a second, the answer seemed to come out of the spine. Even Yang Hyo-min, a master of improvisation, had no choice but to shut his mouth for a moment.

“… Give me whatever you want.”

– You’ll regret it.

“Instead, make sure.”

– I’m a guy who works only as much as I put into my account, so do it yourself.

drop.

Yang Hyo-min’s feelings at this time were unpleasant and strange.

First-class mercenaries who have received numerous requests and are not too concerned about money are usually like that.

“How old was that boy?”

Yang Hyo-min looks at the boy on the frozen screen and asks.

“Nam Man-hyuk. 34 years old. 17 years old, for sure.”

With some clues in the video, I even guessed that the two were a combination, and that the child on his back might not be a human.

The boy’s or-not-like reaction is unexpected.

It was obviously Yang Hyo-min, who felt strangely uneasy even though he painted a picture that was sure to succeed as before.
