I Became The Villain The Hero Is Obsessed With

Chapter 371

371 – Reaper

Now that we’ve reached the final stage, my task is clear.

It’s to stop the god who is finally descending into this world.

If I can stop that god, a true happy ending will come to me. A happy ending that I couldn’t see in the original comic.

Of course, that’s not all I have to do. There were various tasks left.

And some of them, naturally, were to eliminate other villains.

Especially the villains who became exceptionally strong after inflation.

‘…Now, it really feels like I’m holding a time bomb.’

There is one reason why I feel particularly uneasy.

As all the villains have become stronger, each terror they cause is too threatening. If I can’t stop their first act of terror, there will be countless deaths.

So, I was destined to stop the terror as soon as it started.

‘…Fortunately.’

Of course, there was also good news.

Firstly, the Shadow Walker is still alive.

Unlike in the original, where he lost his girlfriend and went mad, turning dark and disappearing, in this world he successfully married his girlfriend because I saved her.

In other words, unlike the original, the night is still safe.

Now Stardust doesn’t have to suffer from the terror that happens every night and can’t sleep properly… it’s truly a relief.

…Of course, this means that the story gets twisted differently from the original because the villains who caused terror at night won’t do so anymore, but it was manageable. Especially considering how much stronger the Shadow Walker, who was invincible at night, has become after inflation… I couldn’t deny that it was a great help.

Anyway, what will happen next is decided.

It is to eliminate the villain who will come soon.

[hehehe! Do you want to play hide and seek with me?]

The villain named Reaper.

The guy wearing a mask on his face like me, was quite a powerful villain.

His unique ability is to go berserk. His body transforms like a beast, and his hands turn into long knives, an ability clearly specialized for mass murder.

And he was a pleasure-seeking psychopath, rare among villains.

If there are villains who do not shy away from methods to realize their ideology.

He was just a disgusting guy who felt pleasure in killing people.

After slaughtering hundreds of people in his first appearance, he ran away before Stardust arrived.

…In fact, up until then, he seemed like an ordinary villain. Well, in a world without dreams or hopes, it was common for hundreds of people to die.

But the real problem occurs after his first act of terror.

That is, he belatedly realizes that he has another ability.

That other ability is.

It was cloning.

“…..”

The ability to summon up to 5 clones with the same strength as his body, but with lower intelligence.

After sending one out and even if the clone dies, a clone appears again in front of the main body just by flicking a finger, a crazy ability.

…Because of this simple yet powerful ability, many ordinary people died. The biggest problem was that they couldn’t find him. The main body was hiding somewhere underground, and they could only send clones continuously, leaving the association helpless. What’s the use if the villain is weak enough to be smashed by Stardust’s punch? After killing dozens, another clone is created and comes again.

He sounded hopeless, and indeed many people died because of him in the original. Especially since the main body was hiding and only the clones were appearing, there were all kinds of rumors about this Reaper in the [Stardust!] fan community. Some said that the author finally created a character to kill all civilians in Korea except for Stardust…

Of course, in the original, they eventually succeeded in stopping the Reaper.

To be exact, it was solved by Ye Seul Ah.

‘…Wait a minute, didn’t he say that he could create a maximum of 5 clones?’

The method was derived from when the Reaper taunted the association during his repeated terror attacks, saying he had 5 extra hearts.

Instead of killing the clones on the spot, they captured them one by one and imprisoned them.

…Then, the Reaper could no longer create other clones because they were alive.

In contrast to the overwhelming despair he had shown, it was quite a hollow solution.

…In the end, they caught all 5 clones and put them in prison, ending his terror.

The main body was never caught in the end.

“…Sigh.”

And now, at this point where the original work has become reality.

…One could think that to catch the reaper, it would be necessary to catch five more of his clones. A daunting task just thinking about it.

Still, there was a way to break it.

It was his first terror attack.

At that time, just once, the main body came.

“…So, it means that you just have to do well at the beginning.”

In the living room of the Ghostream House.

I sat on the sofa, staring intently at the calendar hanging on the wall, and muttered.

I couldn’t know the exact date when he would initiate the first terror attack. It’s not that I forgot, but it wasn’t specified in the original work. The timing itself was certainly a few months after the inflation, so it would be soon…

That was when I was pondering, resting my arm on my chin.

“Uh huh, Dain~ What are you thinking about?”

Seo Ja-young, who came stumbling from somewhere, rubbing her eyes, came up beside me, held me from behind, and asked over my shoulder.

‘…’

…So, I naturally let go of Seo Ja-young, who was holding me from the side, and looked at the calendar, sighed, and said.

“Sigh, it’s not something else… Some crazy guy is planning to do something soon, and I’m worried about how to stop him.”

“Huh… Wait, are you avoiding me?”

“It will be a mess if we don’t catch him right away. Sigh, the problem is big…”

“Hooooong…”

The woman, who looked at me with a strange glance and snorted,

Soon she put up her hood, hiding her purple bob hair, tilted her head, and said.

“But what’s the problem? Just beat him up when he comes out, right?”

At Seo Ja-young’s words, I shook my head.

The problem is that I’m busy.

I had a role in the revised Cathedral, and with many occasions needing me to go abroad since I have things to do with Celeste.

However, it has become very nerve-racking to go abroad, not knowing when that reaper will come out. Sigh…

“…Yeah. I should think about what I should do when the reaper comes out.”

I muttered softly and thought.

In fact, the main body of Reaper was very flimsy. Berserk, beastification. Nice words, but he was a guy who was specialized in mass murder and a bit weak in 1-to-1. In the original, the main body also used hit and run strategy, and all the clones died after getting hit once.

The fact that such a reaper was one of the worst villains in the original work was a paradoxical thing. He was certainly a weak villain, but he lived off his unique brutality and the fraudulent characteristic of clones. Of course, his recognition was a bit lacking. Not many people were watching the cartoon when he appeared because it looked too miserable…

Anyhow, the main body itself is flimsy.

So, I had this thought.

‘…Can’t I, maybe, take him down?’

I have become fairly strong too. As much as the power of a mechanism like Stardust, my psychokinesis has now reached a certain level. There was still a risk, but..

Anyway, I wanted to test my power this time. Wouldn’t it be okay if Seo Eun or Choi Se-hee are by my side in case something happens? That’s what I thought.

Well, whatever it is. Waiting for the appearance of the reaper would be the first thing now.

So, from that day, I started watching news flashes every day.

[Breaking news! A villain has started a terror attack! He is currently in Gwanghwamun…]

It was not the reaper.

[A villain is causing a terror attack by shooting fireworks from the sky! Her villain name is Joy the Wonderful, and she already has a criminal record…]

It was not the reaper.

[A villain claiming to be a returnee from another world is attacking Busan! He is in armor and a sword…]

From noble mtl dot com

It was not the reaper.

After anxiously waiting for him, as if waiting for a beloved,

[Breaking news! A villain has appeared in Seoul! He has a beast-like appearance with long blade-like hands…]

“Finally.”

The reaper finally appeared.

“Who’s there now! Hey! Choi Se-hee over there! Come here, let’s go together!”

“Uh, huh? Oh. Got it! Just a moment!”

“Hurry, hurry!”

Hastily donning a mask, I quickly dressed in a coat and cloak and flew into the sky.

I wonder how long it had been since I teleported at bullet speed with only Choi Se-hee.

“hehehe! Where is everyone hiding?”

I was able to arrive at the scene of Reaper’s terror in an instant.

A guy wandering the streets with a mask that looks like infrared goggles on his face, hands made of long blades and a giant fur like a wolf thrown on his back. That’s Reaper.

Upon reaching him, I said.

“Huh? You are…”

By the time he recognized me, I was already floating in the sky with guns in the air, looking down at him.

…I quickly turned on the broadcast.

[Egoistic broadcasting ONㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ]

[This feeling as if I’ve come home. This is Mango Broadcast]

[Viewer count has instantly surpassed 10,000ㅋㅋㅋㅋ What’s this]

Looking at the fast-moving chat window.

I grinned down at Reaper and opened my mouth.

Alright. Let’s start the show.

“hahahaha, Mr. Reaper. Congratulations! You’ve got the opportunity to be with our Cathedral. How about joining us as my subordinate?”

Of course, he will refuse here.
