The Crazy Villain Regains His Sanity Chapter 176

Chapter 176:

After dealing with Heinrich, the Hell Master arrived at the location where Argos and Black Hound were and raised his hand in welcome.

“yo. this! Al, how have you been?”

Argos’s expression brightened when he saw him, but the black hound was still blunt.

However, there was a friendship between them that lasted over 30 years.

“How was Sean?”

“You’ve been doing well, so you’ll be able to face it safely like this, right? Hey Heinz. “What kind of expression do you give to a friend you haven’t seen in a while?”

“You’re still breathing.”

“Is that something you would say to your friend?”

“There’s nothing you can’t do.”

The Hell Master clicked his tongue at the sound of dissatisfaction.

“Anyway, there’s nothing you can’t do. I should have taught my subordinate well. “This is not the time to be laughing.”

Argos smiled and shook his head.

“It’s too much of a joke to say that Heinz is your subordinate.”

“Why are you doing this while getting hit by your subordinates?”

“If I am rich, you are also rich.”

“No, I’m a friend. “You are a subordinate.”

Black Hound frowned.

“Are you using it because you want to die?”

“Yeah, that’s right, I won’t die from you.”

“Let’s give it a try.”

“oh! “Do you think your skills have improved a bit?”

“….”

Seeing Black Hound and Hell Master bickering, Argos felt at ease. He was able to stand where he is now because he had two strong friends. Also, because of these two people, the league was able to stand where it is now.

In the midst of a heated argument, the Hell Master saw Argos smiling and was disgusted.

“Hey, don’t make that face.”

“Are you saying that just by looking at me now?”

“Can’t you just keep it to yourself?”

“It’s because I’m happy.”

“I can’t watch it.”

Black Hound added the words of the Hell Master that made him shudder.

“I agree with Sean on this one.”

“okay. “Then let’s talk about work.”

The three, called the Three Evils of the League, are the ones who first founded the League and are members of the Ten Superhumans, the strongest superhumans in the world.

It was possible to destroy most powerful countries with just their presence.

When we got to the point, both Black Hound and Hell Master had serious expressions.

“What about Heinrich?”

“I took care of it. “He’s a picky guy, so I gave him a gift.”

“then?”

“I’m leaving again.”

“I want you to go in together this time.”

“I did it even though I knew it was impossible.”

Hell Master said playfully, but Black Hound shook his head and said.

“Even if it is impossible to activate the gift, no one doubts your power.”

“It’s because I’m not satisfied.”

“….”

The Hell Master spoke as if soothing Argos, who was silent.

“I found some traces, so I’ll get them soon.”

“We can help.”

“Are there just one or two people aiming for that? “If I don’t find it myself, who’s going to steal it?”

“So you can find it?”

“Oh, I guess I’ll find it soon.”

The Hell Master spoke with confidence.

“The remains of the Divine Beast.”

The power left behind by the existence of a divine beast. Argos obtained it and gained immortal power. The remnants of the Divine Beast, which allows one to go far beyond human limitations, can completely erase the side effects of the Hell Master’s gift.

Argos was the one who knew its power better than anyone else.

“I hope you find it.”

“I will find it. The problem is people who act too quickly when things are going well. But I can’t not come when my friend calls me.”

“I would have gotten through the crisis just fine without you.”

“I hear people say they don’t need help.”

“I was just telling the truth.”

“Yeah, you’re great.”

“anyway.”

Hell Master asked Black Hound with a displeased expression.

“You’re that eunuch, right?”

“right.”

“Once I get rid of the gift limit, I’ll have to kill that eunuch. “Everything is very annoying.”

“Sean I hope that day comes quickly.”

“I will try. Oh and. “I heard there are people who are more picky than eunuchs?”

Argos and Black Hound’s gaze turned to the Hell Master.

“It was a good decision not to go with Headbreaker. “You shouldn’t interact with crazy people.”

“Please convince Heinz.”

“okay.”

The grinning Hell Master said to Black Hound.

“You are weaker, so don’t rub in and wait until I get the remains of the Divine Beast. Because the time to go on a rampage will come soon.”

“…I want to kill you first before that.”

“Oh my, I’m so scared. I’m so scared that I run away. Al, see you later!”

With those words, the Hell Master left his seat.

asked the black hound, who had been watching him until he disappeared completely.

“Do you think Sean’s gift will be completed?”

“As long as we get the remains of the Divine Beast. “No one will be able to escape the absolute death that will come without restrictions.”

“but. “No matter how monster you are, death is inevitable.”

If only I could kill Headbreaker.

Argos also nodded his head in agreement at Black Hound’s muttering.

To be honest, I think world conquest and world domination are empty illusions.

Are you saying that you want to dominate the world, which is so vast that even in this small country, Korea, there is no comparison even when considering region or origin? Just planting a flag is not enough.

The League, like Argos, was just a collection of villains committing crimes and struggling under absurd delusions.

Are you going to conquer the world with them? It was a sound that would destroy the world, which was in its own way of recovering from the fight against monsters.

Still, I had high hopes for the party’s ability to once dominate world affairs.

Because it is closely related to the United States, it was believed that it would still be able to achieve results based on its powerful influence.

However, what I heard from Maxim Geddes was quite below expectations.

-Failed. There is no shame.

“Are the league kids that strong?”

-strong. It was unfortunate that I didn’t know how to summon all my strength at the critical moment.

Shouldn’t we assume that from the beginning?

How confident are you?

Now that I think about it, what James Reed said comes to mind. It was said that the party has a structure that makes it difficult to come together as one, as it gathers to protect vested interests.

I thought it would be right to see Maxim Geddes as a failure even though he tried his best.

“Do you think the party is inferior in strength to the league?”

-It is true that our side has more to lose.

Maxim Guedes’ story was that there were bound to be differences between the league, which mobilized all its might, and the party that tried to protect its vested interests.

In the end, it’s nothing more than an excuse to cover up one’s incompetence.

“I didn’t have high expectations from the beginning, so it doesn’t matter.”

-Next time, I will bring satisfactory results.

“Is it possible?”

-Of course.

“I’m looking forward to it.”

I just finished speaking with Maxim Geddes.

“How is it?”

“Was it something I could hear?”

“It doesn’t matter. “You’re helping me with my work, so you need to know the details.”

“yes.”

Jin Se-jeong, who was listening from the side, made a simple comment.

“The Lion King’s desire to eliminate the League is sincere.”

“I’m sure it’s sincere.”

“Yes, but do the members of that party feel the same way?”

“What do you mean?”

“If the party represents vested interests, the presence of an enemy who can create a reasonable amount of tension is very useful. “They can shift responsibility and justify their use of illegal means.”

Maxim Geddes and the party may not have the same thoughts, and while his goal is the destruction of the League, it is highly likely that the party’s goal is to weaken the League.

That sounds plausible.

I remember when I was a hematologist, some politicians passed several laws to control the awakened.

So should the party also be considered a potential enemy?

“I think it’s enough to empower the Lion King.”

“Is that okay?”

“Yes and you don’t care.”

“Is that the end?”

Jin Se-jeong nodded.

“The East Asian powers have been wiped out in the current league, and the overlapping powers are the parties. “I think the best thing to do is to watch it and occasionally give it a try and be condescending.”

That meant I had to do what I had to do.

I like that better too.

“And you found a new way to increase your influence, right? “I think it’s better to focus more on that.”

Since I had the same thought, I nodded in agreement.

Meeting Wu Aye Cho brought me several realizations.

First of all, I can’t live a life like that.

As a hero, being willing to sacrifice everything for the country and people is worth respecting, but it was far from what I was pursuing.

I thought I couldn’t live like that.

Should we say that the species are different?

However, because I wanted to support him, I did him a favor.

In that process, I was able to think about what role I could play and decide on a method.

Because there are things I can contribute in my own way.

This is the superhuman strengthening project.

I strengthen the superhumans who come to me through individual interviews. Through that process, I am simultaneously expanding my influence.

As there are superhumans who struggle even if their skills are lacking, strengthening their capabilities will directly lead to strengthening my influence.

When I mentioned this idea to James Reed, he readily agreed.

“It’s a good method. “But you don’t like parties or America.”

“Should I act based on what they think?”

“Well…”

James Reed nodded obediently, saying it was a stupid question. He then encouraged me by saying that strengthening the capabilities of the relatively underdeveloped people of Asia would produce good results.

Why does saying it feel like goodbye?

Sure enough, James Reed hesitated and said goodbye.

“Junho, I’m going back to America.”

“Is this because of a conflict with the league?”

“A lot of people died. “Just watching from afar isn’t my thing.”

That’s not wrong. Although James Reed’s brain was lacking, I couldn’t stop him from doing so because of his will.

“I’m sorry I couldn’t go after finishing the boost.”

“They said it was difficult.”

James Reed nodded.

“It’s something that erodes human vitality. “If you use it just once, you will suffer severe aftereffects, and if you use it three times, your life will be at risk.”

In the end, boost research ended there. He said that there was no point in researching it further since it was meant to amplify power based on vitality in the first place.

I thought it was a league-like item that disregards human life and a good item for strengthening power in a short period of time.

After hearing those words, I was able to let go of my regrets.

“Thank you for your hard work. “It helped me a lot.”

“I’m sorry I couldn’t be of much help.”

“I’m even sorry.”

I pressed James Reed down to use his brain, but I had no intention of asking him to make the impossible possible.

Rather, I was helped.

And I’m not one to forget help.

“Thank you for your hard work. “If you want, I can help you sometime.”

“really?”

“uh.”

“What if I ask for help from America?”

“uh.”

“Really?”

“Then am I going to say it twice?”

“and! “I was really surprised.”

hmm.

It was very burdensome to see a 210cm middle-aged white man being so emotional.

…If you like something, that’s it.

James Reed, who became much brighter, smiled and said.

“Junho has changed a lot since the beginning.”

“I?”

“Yes, I beg you a lot!”

“is it?”

“At first, he was an unstoppable villain. “A villain more fearsome than the League!”

This little guy did me a favor and started a fight?

If he was talking about being born to be a villain like Argos and all that, I thought about giving him some training to commemorate his return, but something completely different came out.

“It’s much softer now.”

“suddenly?”

“I kept thinking about it. “For Junho, that’s the right thing to do.”

That’s something I can’t refute.

I also think that I am changing. Choi Jun-ho, who vaguely wanted to become stronger, became a hematoma due to his reckless greed for power. He was making progress as a superhuman, one by one, while being careful not to go crazy.

“It’s nice to see you.”

That’s a good thing.

So James Reed returned to America and I took the dog with me to hunt some monsters.

But it seems like the puppy is growing a lot faster these days.

[I guess he was confident that he wouldn’t be abandoned by his owner.]

It got to the point where I thought I might not be able to go home in the future if I continued like this.

bruise!

That’s not what a dog is. If so, that’s a relief.

Then, I received unexpected news.

When U Aye Cho arrived in Myanmar, he called me his benefactor and declared that he would inherit the good influence I had given him and help bring peace to the world.

Coincidentally, three days after U Aye Cho returned to Myanmar, a level 8 demon attacked him, but he succeeded in hunting the demon with even more overwhelming inaction than before.

U Aye Cho told the media that the reason was his meeting with me.

It was an achievement he had worked hard to achieve, but he also enjoyed the publicity effect by mentioning my name.

Well, for a super person who doesn’t have a gift, there won’t be as dramatic an effect as opening the gift.

Even if an adept cannot unlock the gift, being able to know the potential gift is a great help in setting the direction for future training.

Confidence in yourself gives you mental stability.

Cheon Myeong-guk, who came to see me, also asked about the reason.

“Did you tell Jo about the gift?”

“yes.”

“also.”

“Is that the end?”

“That’s right.”

“I thought you would say I did something pointless.”

“no. I think that the cause embraced by the Adept is very healthy and excellent. “It is a favor that no other superhuman could ever give.”

I don’t know what to do to hear such high praise from Cheon Myeong-guk.

“What I would like to ask, however, is whether this favor will be directed only to U-Aye Cho or to other superhumans as well.”

“It looks like we’re getting a lot of inquiries.”

“It’s hard to do my work because I’m busy receiving calls.”

According to Cheon Myeong-guk, inquiries from adepts from all over the world are flooding in.

It’s no wonder that superhumans turn their eyes upside down to become stronger.

“As the threat of monsters is getting stronger, we plan to increase the number of seats for the level 9 test to strengthen the capabilities of superhumans.”

“Are you serious?”

“Wow, I felt a lot after seeing Jjo. “I’m trying to believe in human good will for once.”

Because I learned that not all humans are evil.

What I felt during Jeong Da-hyeon, I became convinced after watching U Aye Jjo.

However, I do not have the absurd idea that everyone is good.

“I respect you. “If there is anything I can do to help, I will actively help.”

“thank you.”

This is my first time seeing such a look from Cheon Myeong-guk.

I think this is why people should do good things.

“Then we will try to coordinate the schedule.”

“yes.”

Here, I said that I would leave the matter of selecting superhumans to Myung-guk Cheon.

He trusted me and entrusted me with his willingness to work hard, but for some reason, Cheon Myeong-guk’s expression was not bright.

Jin Se-jeong said this would be a huge privilege?

“I thought that everyone would harass me to the point where I would not be able to live or die.”

“Then should I ask someone else?”

“no. The government should be in the middle so there won’t be any noise. “I will take care of it.”

“I also trust Director Cheon the most.”

“yes.”

Cheon Myeong-guk said that if he left this to someone else, he would 100% suffer.

Can corruption occur with just this? If corruption occurs, you can just smash the person’s head, but I thought it was too complicated.

Well, it would be good if no one gets their head broken.

“It’s a good thing, so I’ll be happy to cooperate. “Then, is there anything you want in terms of scheduling?”

“It would be nice to have a place where we can interact with our country, right? “It would be nice if the country in question had a friendly stance.”

“Of course.”

“That’s it.”

“What concerns me is the morality of superhumans.”

The reason why Cheon Myeong-guk speaks carefully is that if the superhuman is alone or in a country where there is no superhuman, it is difficult to say that the superhuman’s morality is good by saying good things.

Wow, it was such a rare case.

I’m prepared for that too.

“It doesn’t matter.”

“Is that true?”

“yes. “It’s too much to expect everyone to be as pure and innocent as Wu Aye Jjo.”

I am willing to turn a blind eye to it as long as it is a moderate amount of stress.

Wouldn’t that be the only way for a big fish to be caught thinking that it is properly seasoned?

Everyone was not strict with themselves and was lenient.

“It may be disposable, but wouldn’t it be nice if a villain-level superhuman thought he was qualified and voluntarily came to capture him?”

“What do you mean by that?”

“I am taking my own precautions. “The manager should know this too.”

I’m not a bigot, and I’m not saying that I suddenly explode with a sense of justice and want to benefit the world.

“I plan to write a contract when a superhuman visits.”

“What if it’s a contract?”

“It’s a kind of after-sales service contract.”

Not all superhumans will be able to open their gifts and adapt perfectly. It was a contract for that.

Why don’t you get consent for that surgery?

It’s similar to that.

“Superman. “I think this has a different intention.”

As expected, he could not fool Cheon Myeong-guk.

“Of course, this is a superficial reason, and don’t people feel different when they go into the bathroom and when they come out? “It’s after-sales service for that.”

For example, it could be like this.

What if a superhuman who had been moderately influenced by the world until then opens the gift and his behavior changes to that of a villain?

Wouldn’t I be the person who unlocked the gift of a guy who was more vicious than the villain?

Since this happened because of me, of course I have to provide after-sales service.

“I must reap the seeds I sow.”

“Super Choin, what you’re saying right now is…”

Cheon Myeong-guk’s face turned pale. I guess my intentions were conveyed correctly.

“Oh, you don’t have to worry too much. All superhumans just need to have the original intention.”

Isn’t it the easiest thing to maintain your original intention, just as I am maintaining my initial intention not to go crazy?

I gave Cheon Myeong-guk a soft smile to make him feel at ease.
