I Became The Villain The Hero Is Obsessed With
Chapter 70: Recuperation

"Seo-eun."

"What?"

"Can you untie this, please?"

"No."

I shook the handcuffs which tied me to the bed.

I mean, tying my hand to the bed is too much…

And if I teleport, I can easily get out of it.

"If you try to take it off, I will never see your face again."

"….."

Seo-eun seemed to have read my expression, but she said it with a sad expression.

Tsk… I can't do anything because I did something to her.

"All right, all right. I’ll just lie down, all right?"

I finally surrendered and leaned back in bed.

I had an IV in my right hand. It’s fluid or something.

It has already been weeks since I took the stab for Stardus in the basement of HanEun Group.

Thanks to Ha-yul’s healing ability, I managed to stay alive while hovering between life or death. I had a hole in my body, but I can't believe it's a miracle.

On top of that, considering the fatigue from teleporting all the way here, I was lucky to be alive.

But the problem is.

Everyone in my house knew that I was almost dead.

As a result, I’ve been locked up.

"……"

"Okay. Say ah~"

"…Soobin, please, can't I scoop up the rice myself?"

"No, you can't."

"Haa…"

Yes, I admit it.

I would have been really surprised too.

What if Seo-eun, Soobin, Ha-yul or her brother goes out and there is a hole in their body when they come back, and even bleeding? My heart would drop.

Actually, when I woke up a few weeks after I passed out, everyone was crying in front of me.

…But I didn’t think that I would be handcuffed to the bed.

Anyway, I didn't feel so well after waking up, so I lay in bed with an IV for a while.

"…I'm sorry I hid it until now."

"No, it's nothing. I should thank you for saving me. What are you talking about? Stop!"

And Ha-yul confessed to me that she has healing power. Except for the head of the orphanage who she told because she was young and naive, this is the first time she confessed to me about her ability,

Of course, I'm sure everyone found out because she healed me who was lying down in the living room. Because I already knew. I just stayed still until she opened up first.

So, officially, I got a healer.

I was like, ‘It’s fine now since Ha-yul can heal me when I get hurt, right?’ but ended up getting hit on the head by Seo-eun. Anyway.

The first thing everyone asked me since I got better. How did you get hurt so badly?

I was just going to tell them, ‘I hurt myself trying to protect Stardus.’

"….."

I felt something strange.

For some reason, I feel like I'm going to be fucked up if I say so.

Does this mean that I also have a super-sense like Stardus? What the hell is this feeling?

…Yes, let's say this.

"The monster made a surprise attack from behind?"

"Yeah, I was off guard and got hit."

It's not a lie. I told only part of the truth.

It’s true that I was stabbed by a monster raid. But I was stabbed on purpose, if I said this I think I’m going to have a terrible time going, so let's stay put.

Everyone's expressions are stiff at my words.

Everyone bothered me so much about why I went into such a dangerous place from the beginning, so I was only released after I promised not to go to such a place in the future.

A man has to take a risk.

So after a few days of confinement.

At my plea that lying in bed is not good for my body, I can finally get up and take a walk.

It’s a lucky thing that our house is in the valley, the yard in front of the house is practically a park without having to go anywhere, so it’s perfect for a walk. Isn't it the dream of modern people?

Of course, I couldn’t walk alone. Seo-eun said she'd keep an eye on me.

….No, what could I do if I ran away suddenly? So unfair.

Come to think of it, maybe she just wanted to walk with me. Well.

Anyway, it’s a good day.

Maybe because it's spring now, birds are flying around and flowers are blooming… It's nice because the wind is cool, too.

"Oppa, are you sure you're feeling okay?"

"Yeah, I'm fine now. How many weeks did I take off? It's weird if I’m still not."

"…You had a hole in my chest, so it would be even weirder that you got better soon, no?"

"Ha-yul is so good at healing. As expected, every team needs a healer. If not… I'm sure it would be a big deal.”

But I feel sorry for Ha-yul.

I heard that she fainted after doing treatment for me.

….Actually, I recruited her because I wanted to have a healer from the beginning, but my heart felt a bit bothered because she had to do it again.

I still patted Seo-eun's head, who looked at me with a worried look from the side.

Seo-eun doesn't say anything when I touch her hair. She's not normally like this, but she's gotten a little softer since I passed out.

That's true. Seo-eun was the first one to see me come back half dead. Others instinctively prepared their minds after hearing Seo-eun's scream, and Seo-eun said she ran without any such thing and saw me. Honestly, it would be a trauma to watch a person bleed with a hole in his chest.

The child was very surprised. According to Soobin, she kept crying. I feel sorry.

All right. Let's show her something funny.

"Seo-eun, look at this."

"What is it?"

I clumped Behemoth on my hand, which was on my side.

Actually, this is my only benefit from this crap.

It's a black, remotely controllable liquid monster.

…I don't think it was cool to just say it like this, but anyway.

I've put it together like a bunch of balls.

Four wiggly black balls in an instant.

"Ta-da. Juggling!"

I juggled it.

A Biological Weapon Special, which was made by grinding dozens of people in a secret laboratory.

Can be used as a juggling ball.

"…Are you having fun?"

Seo-eun only looked at me with a salty look.

That's weird. Do kids not like juggling these days?

***

Anyway, I took care of myself for quite a while.

After a few weeks, my condition is good again.

Now I can finally graduate from the life of lying in bed and getting IV fluids, and sit in my room properly.

It's been a while since I've come back with my personal time.

As expected, you need some time by yourself.

"…The end."

I wrote everything that happened this time in my diary, and I immediately put it deep in the drawer and locked it up with the key.

Until "The Villain" appears, I have to keep my diary like this every day. After that, I will burn it…

So I’m going to be in big trouble if someone reads this. I wrote down all my secrets.

But Seo-eun keeps trying to read my diary, so I'm in trouble. You can't read this, kiddo.

I need to come up with a solution.

"Phew…"

Having my task done, I leaned on the chair and fixed my hair.

What happened in the basement of the HanEun Group this time. I succeeded in getting Behemoth like how I wanted, but the problem is afterward.

In fact, for the first time after coming to this world, I realized I could die.

I would be a big problem if I die.

I don't know how Seo-eun, Soobin, and Ha-yul will move around. Eventually, this world will be doomed.

In fact, everything I’m doing now will only slow down and turn into a waste, and it means nothing unless I knock down the final boss of the original.

So the conclusion is.

I have to think about the world after I die.

"…."

Maybe I should buy another note.

Anyway, let's think about preventing a recurrence so that this doesn't happen.

This time, I felt that I had little force, so I feel a little dangerous to come forward alone somewhere.

"…I mean, it's not that I don't have anything."

I looked at the black thing attached to my right arm's shoulder. Behemoth. Now that we have this, there's some force. We can use this to stop the incoming bullets.

…But I won't be in much of an actual battle, it's actually just like insurance. I will only bring out at the worst possible moment

Anyway, the important thing is that there is little force.

Even more, it's hard because I keep coming out on the media.

All right, I also need to implement the thing I envisioned quickly.

Just putting all the villains in the Republic of Korea under my control.

Heroes also have an association to manage them, shouldn't villains have something to manage and keep them in control too?

If that happens, I won't have to take the initiative to terrorize myself.

I'm going to give all of them missions. So that there's no civilian casualties and only Stardus can be strong.

If that happens, maybe. Maybe my retirement won’t be just a dream anymore.

I will stand far behind, only to manage and confirm all terrorism.

…But will that day ever come?

"Phew… I should cast her first."

That's how I started making my next plan. First of all, we need someone with force.

…

I have to… make a plan…

"Haa…"

I sighed while planning.

Yeah, I don’t give a damn to this future plan or whatever it is.

My biggest concern right now is.

"…What about Stardus?"

What the hell is she thinking of me?

Oh, my God. Some villain just took the stab on my behalf.

I have nothing to say even if she starts doubting me.

"…Gosh, I don't know."

I don't know. I'll just have to talk later.

But there's something I've done so far. She’s not going to suspect all of sudden just because of this one.

Well, I've had four terrorist attacks so far, uh-huh.

…She has to believe that. Let's not worry about it.

"…."

…No, before that. I left like that at the end.

She’s not going to think that I’m already dead, right…?

***

"Haru, why are you spacing out so much these days? What is the matter with you?"

"Oh… It's nothing."

"What's nothing? You’ve been getting slouchy lately, so your expression hasn't been good. Did something happen?"

Something happened.

Something that bothers her.

The thought was swallowed inside, and Shin Haru tried to smile and said nothing.

It's been a month since that day.
