312 – Promise

collapsing joint.

After being carried away by Stardus, I looked around with a cold expression.

‘…what the f*ck is this.”

The head that had just woken up for the first time and found composure after quite some time.

Having regained my sanity, I fell into thought as I flew through the sky cutting through the wind.

First of all, I seem to have lost my memory.

The words I hear now in my earphones may be fabricated lies, but when I heard that tone, it must have been me. It’s not something you can follow just by copying it.

And, when I tried to gather the information so far.

“…Mr. Stardus. What was I doing here?”

“Ugh, huh? You’re here to catch the man who makes your wish come true. You don’t remember?”

She answers my question with a trembling voice.

After dismissing it as nothing to Stardus, I made my judgment while flying through the sky while being caught by her.

Apparently, this is the world of the cartoon [Stardust!] I read before.

…I don’t know why the trashy manga I read before became a reality, but hearing the name Stardus and the name of a familiar villain seems almost certain. In the first place, people are flying in the sky right now. So, is this prison the Carceas?

Thinking that far, I burst into laughter at the absurd situation.

…f*ck. I woke up and fell into a cartoon. I was wondering if things are going well these days, but life is really good.

Looking at the atmosphere there, it seems that it has been quite a while since I fell into this world. Seeing that I killed the person who fulfilled my wish with the future me who had finished recording very thoroughly, it seems that they were trading my memories in exchange. maybe.

So I calmly grasped the situation.

A situation where the head that has been cold in a crisis situation from before shines. Before you panic, you gotta live and see

The conclusion I came to after glancing back at Stardus who was flying in the sky holding me from behind was…

‘…I guess.’

‘I must have been a hero in this world.’

That was it.

Otherwise, Stardus wouldn’t be so desperate to save me. His expression is very concerned about me. At least it looks like a sidekick. It’s a hero ego stick, but it’s a name that doesn’t sound like a hero.

I pretended to be calm in a sudden situation, but in fact, when I was almost half-conscious, I thought so carefree.

Stardus and I finally got out of the collapsing prison.

So, we finally came out under the blue sky, floating next to the clouds and looking down at the huge prison below.

…To be precise, the prison castle that was about to collapse while being entwined with strange thick black tentacles.

no, is that okay?

when i was thinking like that

Just in time, my voice came out of my earphones.

[Now, did you get out of here? It would be nice if nothing happened, but something must have happened. Like the guy with the white tentacles making a fuss.]

[In that case, the answer is Stardust. If an incident like this happened, she probably would have come running right away, so tell her. He said she could beat him. If you attack with the power of the star that shines from your body, you will be able to catch it.]

The voice that calmly suggests a solution.

So, without hesitation, I followed his words.

“Mr.

“…Okay. But then where are you going?”

When she asked me in a shaky voice, I answered calmly.

[Ask me to get off at the top of the castle with a red flag over there.]

“Please drop me off at the roof of the castle with the red flag over there.”

“…okay.”

At my words, Stardus nodded with trembling eyes, picked me up, and headed towards it.

Arriving there, I finally got off the Stars and set foot on the ground again.

On top of the old skyscraper-like castle where the cold sea breeze blows.

Watching me flapping his cape, Stardus was still looking down at me with worried eyes.

That moment when she opened her mouth while looking at me with her blue eyes, her blonde hair waving like that.

aaang.

Along with a roar, the sound of another side of the building collapsing was heard.

As if she couldn’t hold back any longer, she turned her head slightly.

But to her hesitantly, as if I were constantly being stepped on.

I smiled as naturally as possible and told her.

“I’ll be fine, Mr. Stardus. Go ahead.”

“…still.”

Like that, to her who still looks at me with uneasy eyes.

I take one breath and

Reassuringly, he said with a smile.

“…and.”

“…Mr. Stardus. Who you were and what you meant to me… I’ll remember soon.”

“Don’t worry too much and go.”

“Next time we meet, everything will be the same as before.”

“…ah.”

At my words, she put on a dazed face for a moment.

As if he had made up his mind, he nodded and told me.

“…Okay. Is that a promise…?”

And looking at me, almost crying a little, at my words asking like that.

I don’t even know what method there is.

“Yes. Of course. I promise.”

I made a promise that I might not be able to keep.

***

After leaving Stardus like that.

“Whew…”

After confirming that she had left and disappeared far out of sight, I let out a deep sigh as if I sat down.

“…ha.”

I told Stardus to meet you next time.

[If you go there like that, the party will come to pick you up soon. I’ll be waiting there until then.]

…That’s because my voice in the earphones said so.

The group is coming to pick you up… Who are you talking about? No, wasn’t my party Stardus in the first place? Do you mean association employees?

Thinking that far, the thought crossed my mind that I might not be a hero. Like a mercenary, the idea that he could be a competent person working in PMC. …I’m not sure if I have the ability, though.

Anyway, that didn’t matter.

thud. thud. thud. thud. thud.

“…No, what is it really?”

Left alone like that, I muttered as I listened to my heartbeat with my face red as if it were going to explode, with my hands on my chest.

From the moment I first saw Stardust until now, my heart started beating like crazy.

To be honest, when I first saw Stardus, I was surprised to see that she is much prettier in real life than in the cartoon. Especially since she was my favorite girl there.

…However, that’s all there is to it.

From my point of view, when I woke up and lost my memory in a hero cartoon overnight, it wasn’t that important. What’s wrong with my favorite girl? I feel like my life is screwed up right now.

However, the body did not.

…From the moment I first saw Stardus, my body was beating like crazy.

To be precise, it was as if the memories in my head had been erased, but only the emotions remained. It felt like my body remembered her. conditioned reflexively.

…In this world, how much did I like Stardus? You said you lived through this?

In addition, Stardus’ reaction was also strange.

…I think he noticed that I had lost my memory for the first time, but the worries and concerns in those eyes… were overflowing.

“…”

I’ve never seen a character that Stardus cared about so much, even in the original work. Because she was always a de facto dokgodai.

From noble mtl dot com

No matter how I think about it, I think it’s true that she and I had a special relationship…

With that thought in mind, I looked down from the top of the tower.

aaagh.

As the cold wind gusts, the huge black tentacles seen below come up from the underground and turn the prison on the ground into a mess.

And in the middle, I saw a flash of yellow light.

Maybe that’s Stardust.

…but I’m not like a pseudo-hero, am I? Can’t you help me and just look around like this?

At that time, I took a deep sigh as I looked down at a scene that could only be found in a sci-fi movie.

Just then, a voice came out of the earphones.

[Oh, and I didn’t tell you this.]

[You are the villain.]

“…?”

And the moment I heard it.

For a while, my head went blank.

…what, villain? I?

What is this April Fool’s joke?

In an instant, dozens of words to refute that statement popped into my head, then sank again.

…no, don’t f*ck with me. Then there’s no way Stardus would react like that. That was a reaction that would only come from a colleague who had been with him.

I was thinking that, and then I looked back at my body.

“…..”

Only then did I find myself wearing a black hat, covering my whole body with a black cape, and wearing a white mask over my eyes.

Villain-like all-black fashion.

Come to think of it, the name egostic also seems to have taken the Korean character from egoistic, which means selfish, after Stardus…

what the f*ck

That’s when I felt so confused.

[So, all of my colleagues are villains. Don’t panic when you see it.]

with those words.

“brother!!!”

“Hey, egostick!”

A girl’s voice came from the sky.

…So I looked up.

“…?”

I was speechless when I saw people who resembled the familiar faces I saw in the original work getting off the huge flying ship.

…No, a real villain?

‘…for a moment. Then what is Stardus’ reaction?’

That’s how I got into a huge mess.

…our Stardus isn’t the kind of guy who would do that to a villain.
