40 – Familiar Guy 7

A-Class Villain Sellamendra

He couldn’t understand what was happening to him at this moment.

Seller Mendra, who, with an extremely light heart, tried to make the boy in front of his eyes the riches of his art, whether he had been so far or not.

However, for some reason, no explosion occurred in the boy’s body even though he used his ability.

And…

The moment he was about to question it.

Sellamendra sat down on the floor, feeling a tremendous pain she had never experienced before.

“Oh! I’m sorry!”

His tongue began to swell as if it were going to explode.

His tongue, which had just been flexibly surprised and explained his art, was expanding to the point of filling his mouth at this moment.

‘This… how did this happen? What the hell is this all about! My… I… A great artist, this body is just… Just for a kid like this!!’

Sellamendra screams in his mind amidst the chaos.

But after that thought, Sellamendra’s head couldn’t even think of anything anymore.

A terrible pang that surged through his head right after.

Because the pain beyond the limit took away his spirit.

*

“Cheuk… “

The Sellamendra is collapsing, letting out a scream of pain.

Looking at him, I clicked my tongue inwardly.

‘A pitiful fellow… There is nothing to trust, so you believe in a hero and show gaps. I don’t know how a guy like this became a squad leader.’

Keep in mind one of the basic iron rules of being a villain, that if you’re not someone you absolutely trust, he can stab you in the back at any time.

While punishing the guy who forgot about her momentary conceit, I began to think that I should once again sharpen my guard against her… Minerva, who had entered my clique this time.

Then…

“Huh?”

“….Omg… Uhhhhh.

Suddenly heard rough breathing and an urgent voice.

Right after that, I began to see a hero moving towards me with difficulty.

‘Are you the one who dealt with this guy just a while ago?

With that thought in mind, I turned around and tried to go on my way again.

Apparently, this hero seemed to have a lot of questions about me after defeating the villain, but from my point of view, I had no obligation to answer them, nor did I want to get involved in anything more troublesome.

In the first place, the reason why I came all the way here and kicked this guy was because I was angry at him for interrupting the tea time and I was concerned that Yuri might get hurt in the process of this squad leader running amok without thinking.

It was absolutely not a specification to get involved with other things because of this.

“Hey… Hey! For a moment! Just stand there for a second!”

Coolly chewing on her words calling me so urgently, I went back to where I came from.

As if nothing had happened here before.

*

I returned to the cafe after arranging the villains who were mindlessly messing around.

But right after that,

In my eyes, I was seeing a scene that I hadn’t even thought of.

“… This..?”

From noble mtl dot com

“There were several of them roaming around here too, and they were not afraid to come here, so I took care of them.”

What you see in front of your eyes are the villains lying on the floor.

It looked as if it had been beaten with something hard, and through this I was able to recognize that these people were made this way by Minerva.

‘As for his A-level subordinates, it means that these guys are at the B-C level… To protect the glass and take care of those guys without a single wound, it must mean that this one isn’t a normal person either.’

With that thought in mind, I slowly check the state of the fainting guys.

Then…

Suddenly, something like a small piece of metal that I had seen somewhere in the past began to enter my eyes.

‘This is… ?’

A piece of metal with a dark bronze glow.

Looking at this, I couldn’t help but feel that the suspicion I had in my heart grew stronger once again.

‘A guy who uses this ability… There’s only one of the guys I know.’

Commander Athena.

The girl who remains in my memory of her is obviously covered with these metals, so she has the ability to defend herself.

The fact that her nickname is the strongest shield – Aegis – is derived from her ability.

And, from her point of view, who actually experienced the intensity, I had to admit that the nickname was very suitable for her.

‘It was to the extent that even my ability was chewed up and attacked…’

The problem was that the being who was using that ability was the object that I was already suspicious of, ‘Could it be…?’.

Of course, it was irrational in many ways to conclude that it was that person just because he used a certain ability.

In our class alone, there were 4 fire-type abilities or 3 ground-type abilities that were attached to each other, so it was impossible to judge who was who just because the abilities were the same.

Right now, even though I use scalar transformation, which is a relatively rare case, it is the same reason that no one associates me with Namgoong-jin, the commander of the Villain Alliance.

However, despite this, it was hard to reduce my doubts through the commonalities between Minerva and Athena that were constantly being shown.

‘From their looks to their abilities and feelings, they are similar… Could it be that Minerva really isn’t Athena?..’

If I could, I’d be tempted to ask a question right away.

But.. Anyway, I was judging that it was irrational in many ways to act like that in the current situation.

It was dangerous to talk about the Villain Alliance Corps Commander from my mouth, who is hiding my identity right now,

Furthermore, if this guy was really Athena, I needed to keep my identity tightly hidden so as not to raise unnecessary suspicions.

Athena who has a history of beating me in the back of the head.

As for what would happen if she found out who I really was… She honestly didn’t want to think about it.

‘I don’t need anything else, just to tell this to Zeus or another corps commander, I’ll be blown away right away…’

The correct answer is not to attempt risky gambling in the first place.

While thinking of her like that, I decided to keep a watchful eye on her for the time being, without expressing her ulterior motive as much as possible.

“Ah… “

A boy who completely disappeared from her sight despite her earnest cries.

So, despite Ivy’s body being injured from the previous battle, she thought of following the boy.

But…

“Coke! Coke!”

“! Eh… Ed!”

A painful coughing sound coming from behind.

At this, Ivy suppressed the thought of following the boy and asking him questions. She struggled to approach her colleague, who was fortunately still alive, and began to examine his condition. .

Ed is in a very critical situation due to severe burns and damage to his internal organs from an explosion.

But despite this, he did not die miraculously.

Perhaps, if the treatment is given in time, there will be no major damage to life.

Gratitude for that fact, Ivy hurriedly calls an ambulance and starts cleaning up the scene.

But…

Even as she frantically took care of what she had to do, at this moment, the image of the boy from before did not leave Ivy’s mind.

‘Who the hell is that boy?

A benefactor who saved her and her comrades’ lives, and an existence that prevented further damage.

In fact, in this case, as she recalled the image of him who truly deserved to be called a hero, Ivy began to feel an intense feeling in her heart.

‘I’ll find it… If I ever have to, even if I have to borrow the family’s strength, I must, I must find that boy and repay this favor…’
