I’m Not Your Dad, I’m a Villain

EP.65 EP4. Best Partner(1)

– Boo-woong.

Even if it is a mountainous area, it is definitely a place that has been touched by people.

Of course, the road and asphalt were cemented, but it wasn’t that good to drive.

Even if you step out of the guardrail just a little bit, a cliff is waiting for you, and if a wild animal suddenly jumps out, there is a lot of risk of an accident.

“driving.”

As I was driving with that in mind, my companion, who was sitting in the passenger seat, opened his mouth and said:

“yes?”

“You’re pretty good at driving.”

A class-A hero vanguard staring out the window while still wearing a mask.

Is this just a pure evaluation?

Or is it a consideration to relieve the hostile atmosphere?

“It’s nothing. Anyone can do this.”

Talking about anything is something both sides agree with.

It will take quite some time to get to the city.

Also, personally, as I have received some help, it will be more natural for me to have a close relationship with my acting.

“Anyone, that’s right.”

But is my answer absurd?

Vanguard still curled his tail and stared out the window.

The natural scenery that spreads outside the guardrail…

No, it’s inside the tunnel now. Darkness is all there is, so what is there to see?

“I… . Are you sure you don’t have a license?”

Vanguard still keeps an eye on the darkness of the tunnel, despite any questions he may have asked.

Its mouth opened when it came out of the tunnel.

“Five times.”

“yes?”

“I tried to win before, but I failed five times.”

“… … uh.”

“When I get behind the wheel, I get nervous. When I held it in my hand, I wondered if this huge piece of iron could turn into a weapon in itself… … .”

Oh, I know the feeling.

Actually, when I was learning to drive in an organization, I started by beating the villains of the hostile forces.

Of course, thanks to that

I was able to fully learn how to hit people and how fast I had to hit them so that they wouldn’t die.

Isn’t the other party on the side of justice to comfort each other by unraveling the past?

“Hey, I’m sorry about something.”

“No, thanks.”

He apologized a bit, but he still looked out the window with a consistent attitude.

With only the engine sound of the car resounding in the silence, my eyes naturally turned to the clock engraved on the instrument panel.

Damn, I think it’s time to arrive, but it hasn’t even been five minutes yet.

“Gather… … .”

Shall I sound the horn in the discomfort?

When he felt that urge, Vanguard broke the silence and opened his mouth again.

“yes?”

“That kid named Moa… he was very smart.”

Yep, that’s definitely what I would call a compliment.

And for a light topic, it was a word that could never be overlooked.

Moreover, because the object of the praise was none other than the boss.

“Yeah, it’s hard to believe that I just entered elementary school… … . If it weren’t for him, he might still be wandering through the woods today.”

“Wander through the forest?”

“Actually, after training in the mountains, I got lost on the way to the meeting place. Coincidentally, I’m not used to finding a way… … . It must have been luck in itself to have met him.”

“Ah yes. okay.”

I roughly matched the rhythm and burst into laughter, but if I thought about it, I didn’t know where to start tackling.

Even if an adult was helped by a child, it’s a meditation practice in the mountains.

What era is it now that the author of Hero did his training in the mountains, not in the training room?

And to say that I went into the mountain with such confidence and was in distress, there was no comedy.

“And it was so cute.”

But what was even more ridiculous than that was the words uttered afterward.

“… … yes?”

“Yeah, really… I think he was a cute kid.”

He looked back for a moment, unable to understand, but he still spoke with a blunt attitude.

That atmosphere had been adhered to from the beginning, but that uniformity sounded a little dangerous to me.

No, not a little, but seriously.

“Vanguard-san seems to like MOA.”

I said with a smile, trying not to show it as much as possible, lest the insides be revealed.

Okay, calm down.

The opponent is only evaluating the child to the end. Even if we are heroes, we have no idea that we are villains, so there is no need to be wary.

And although the hero society is said to be rotten, does it not obey ethics and morals?

As a child versus an adult, I would never have a suspicious heart… … .

“I like.”

– Kick!

The moment when your foot on the brake twitches.

He suppressed the fact that the car was likely to stop and be hit by a guard rail, and he turned his stiff head toward him.

“What did you just say… … .”

“I said I like it. that child.”

Yeah, I didn’t hear it wrong.

even arrogant

Even now, look, aren’t you turning your head, which has always been facing out the window, toward me?

Even though he was wearing a mask, I could tell that the eyes behind the mask had a serious color.

In front of those who are nothing but fathers.

This guy said he really likes his 7-year-old daughter.

“Well, that word… … .”

So, is that what this guy said?

You want me to kill you here with my own hands?

“If I had to ask whether I liked it or not, I would be the one who likes him. It helped me in many ways.”

“Ah yes. In that sense… … .”

Then yes.

If it had been a little bit late, I might have hit a guardrail and committed suicide with him.

“Are you offended by any chance?”

Unlike me, Vanguard was still blunt, but he seemed to be aware that he had made a speech mistake.

Yes, it will be difficult for those who become heroes each if they are not aware of the current words.

“Rather than uncomfortable, it was a burden. You said that so suddenly…”

“sorry. Coincidentally, I’m not good at dealing with people… … . It’s not easy to keep a conversation going, so I have a habit of trying to keep things simple.”

“Yes, I understand.”

No, there are many different people in the world.

Even discarded waste like Anatomy is doing well, isn’t this enough to overcome?

But even taking that into consideration, I thought that this person would be alien to being a hero.

“But it’s kind of weird. Usually, when you say a hero, you like to stand in front of people, but you’re not good at dealing with people.”

Because the things that are usually called heroes are often the seeds of interest.

Of course, not everyone is like that from the beginning, but being a hero isn’t just about beating down villains.

Whether you are sponsored by various companies, you are doing propaganda, or you belong to an agency and amassed wealth through the reputation you have built up… … .

As the association gives additional points to the rank evaluation for these activities, even if a certain amount of force is guaranteed, if there is no recognition, it will be in a low rank situation for later years.

In other words, those who have risen to a high rank have most of the savvy skills.

But the person next to me didn’t see that at all.

Even though he referred to himself as an A-class hero.

“My name, have you heard of it?”

A question that abruptly follows such a natural question.

After thinking for a while, I answered him right away.

“No, not at all.”

As a courtesy, you can say that you heard it, but that’s probably not the answer you’re looking for.

“Yes, of course. I have never been publicly exposed to my activities before.”

never revealed it publicly. Here’s another funny word.

A hero who lives by eating attention has actually lived a life that keeps his distance from him.

“That is, why?”

“It’s probably because I’m not proud.”

“I can’t be proud… … .”

“Before I got to this position, I have done a lot of shameful things in many ways.”

Why?

As before, his tone was dry, but he could feel a strange bitterness in his words.

No, it must have been that way from the beginning.

I just wasn’t aware of it until I heard the words now.

“… … Well, you must have a lot of stories.”

Isn’t it funny A person who claims to be a hero is afraid that the public will find out who he really is.

The fact that he’s wearing a mask even though he’s not on the scene, and that he doesn’t want to mention the reason… … .

There were a lot of things I was curious about, such as ranking and training in the mountains, but I didn’t even bother to ask about it.

There may be a relationship after today, but I didn’t think there was any need to continue that kind of meeting right now.

“Still, it is not good to suffer too much alone. You will go through many things in your life… … . I think it would be good to find a place to release the gin inside from time to time.”

But should I say it’s not like everyone else?

When I came to my senses, advice that I couldn’t even think of as light chatter was coming out of my mouth.

Even when a problem arises, he struggles to handle everything by himself without relying on others…

It was an experience that I had too, and I am still in a state of continuing that experience to a small extent.

After all, isn’t he a hero, not a villain?

Heroes live up to the expectations of the public, but sometimes they will have to learn to depend on them.

Like ‘that guy’ who once had a relationship with me.

“Well, it’s a little bit like the first time I met today, but… … .”

It took a while to end the topic with a vague smile in order not to give weight to such advice.

“You look alike.”

Hearing the sound of laughter, he quietly opened his mouth and spoke.

Words I didn’t expect at all.

“Do you look alike?”

“Even if you collect… … . Mr. Brad’s daughter said the same thing. Carrying it alone is not a good solution.”

Yeah, did the boss feel the same way about this guy?

But what I felt from him was more of a surprise than a bond.

Unless she is in front of vassals like me, she, who only plays a girl, gives serious advice to a stranger who has never been in a relationship like Nella.

“Of course, we had little time to talk with the child, and that alone cannot be said to have solved the problem. Still, that child threw a problem at me, who was not proud of the world.”

“A problem, right?”

“It’s just a child’s words, but I’m going to think about it deeply in the future.”

After saying those words, Vanguard looked out the window again.

At first, he thought he was just not able to adapt to the atmosphere, but now he seems to be deeply immersed in trouble.

Were you impressed with what the boss said?

I was concerned about the conversation we had, but on the other hand, I felt at ease in dealing with him.

Even though he’s a hero.

Still, for whatever reason, this guy, like Nella, was favored by the boss. do.

“It is arriving soon.”

The toll gate arrived at the end of the mountain road.

As I passed through the city and entered the city, I felt the hustle and bustle of the city touching my skin.

Is this the end of my relationship with this man?

However, once we’ve come together, let’s take us to the meeting point. Immediately after talking while thinking.

-Puff puff!!

A loud noise that cuts through the hustle and bustle of the surroundings.

With him, I reflexively stepped on the brake and looked straight out the window.

“What, what… … .”

There was not one place where the explosion was heard.

Almost at the same time, large-scale explosions occurred all over the city.

There are many reasons I can think of, but one thing is certain.

‘This was not an accident, it happened intentionally.’

“Mr. Brad, please evacuate.”

As if I wasn’t the only one who realized this, Vanguard immediately opened the car door and started carrying my luggage and carrying it on my back.

I am also fixing the mask I am still wearing on my face.

“Are you going right away?”

“Of course. I am a hero too.”

The conversation ends with that.

After that, Vanguard drove straight down the road without saying a word.

You might be embarrassed by a sudden situation, but seeing them go to the scene right away, you seem to have a very strong sense of justice.

“Still, I want the people around me to take care of me.”

Grasping the wound on his neck that had not yet fully healed, he turned his eyes to Inkichiok, who was approaching from behind.

Kwagwang, bang! There is still a roaring noise, and screams can be heard from the alleyway passed by.

The men and women in hoods wearing masks are tracking the people who run away screaming like that.

Some of them noticed my presence and immediately began to turn their attention to me.

“Follow me quietly.”

There are no other weapons in sight.

But there was something like a light or a spark going on in their grasp.

“If I follow you, will you buy me a meal or something?”

– Paz!

A kid who sends electricity to the side of his head in fear of answering the threat.

Then, as if he were reloading his powers, he pointed his sparkly finger at me again.

“There is only one warning. Follow me quietly.”

“… … Anyway, why are these villain pawns so rude these days?”

tt

Wiping the blood dripping from his burned skin, he prepared to face them.
