The Crazy Villain Regains His Sanity - Chapter 233
Episode 233
A rumbling sound spread from all directions. There were quite a few people around me and Yang Joo-hyuk. They could not hide their astonishment when they saw the day that pierced Yang Joo-hyuk’s heart.
“….”
Anyway, I tasted Yang Joo-hyuk’s blood and began searching for gifts.
During Yang Joo-hyuk’s Inner Claw days, his gift was to divide the force into small pieces and use it to crush the opponent.
I remember the guy who was in his second year of middle school at the time talking about it and calling it Mancheonhwawoo, but the official name was Split, a gift that splits the force into small pieces.
The utility is a bit ambiguous, but if it were me, I could use it for sniping and split the bullets. But then the power will be weakened and it would be better to pour out the force and create more bullets.
It was unfortunate that it was of vague use, but I thought I should give up.
However, there was a gift that caught my eye more than the split. This is what is called rapid growth.
Although this is not a legendary level gift, it is a unique level gift. If the holder trains through a systematic system, it will greatly increase efficiency in the repeated process and help growth. I know that I can build up force at a much faster rate than others.
Yang Joo-hyuk used splits when he was an Inner Clown, but I guess he wasn’t able to open up this rapid growth.
Split and rapid growth were both meaningless gifts to me.
I was disappointed that there was no result and told the pale guy about the type of gift.
“Split and rapid growth?”
“okay.”
Splits are known to be a good gift depending on the application. But rapid growth is a different story.
“You know the weakness of this gift, right?”
“Can I ask what it is?”
“As growth is rapid, it is premised on the owner’s continuous efforts. Rapid growth focuses on force growth rather than physical growth. If physical training does not support this, the balance will be lost. And it gets eaten up by power.”
“If you get eaten by power….”
“You’ll go crazy.”
As I patted his head, I saw Yang Joo-hyuk swallowing dry saliva. I understand it surprisingly well. Has he ever gone crazy like me? Or have we returned to the past?
…I guess not. Because he’s ridiculously weak considering he’s returned to the past.
“I’m not planning on smashing your head, so don’t worry.”
“Yes, I know.”
“But if you go crazy, I will come and smash your head, so you know that.”
“…yes.”
“Anyway, rapid growth is a good gift, so treat it well. “If you use it well, it can shorten the time it takes you to get where you want to go.”
“thank you!”
Yang Joo-hyuk bent his waist 90 degrees and bowed. I said I liked it too, but in the end it only ended up being good for Yang Joo-hyuk. Should I have just gotten a split? No, it’s a nice gift, but it doesn’t help me much. If you get greedy for small things and try to have everything, you will end up in disaster.
“no.”
There’s no need to give up.
Once your chest has been pierced, nothing will change if you pierce it again, right?
“yes?”
“See you next.”
Yes you keep.
and.
After sending Joo-hyuk Yang, I came to one thought.
If the Gift is inherent in the human heart, wouldn’t it also be in the heart of someone who has achieved something other than an awakened person?
I also thought about this when I had a hematoma. However, at that time, I did not feel the need to take action due to the abundance of awakened people around me.
“I’ll give it a try.”

After finishing my errand with Yang Joo-hyuk and meeting with the president, I had to listen to Cheon Myeong-guk nagging me.
“Superman, if you do that without saying anything, a commoner like me might have a heart attack.”
“The manager is a small citizen?”
“yes. “Did you not know until now?”
“Now I know. “Are you very surprised?”
“Everyone is surprised when something happens in the middle of the Blue House. “No, even if I knew, I would be surprised.”
Since the person in question said that, I have nothing to say.
“I will be careful.”
“Since the Adept says so, I will trust it and leave it to you.”
“Please believe me.”
Cheon Myeong-guk nodded at my trustworthy answer.
“By the way, what about Secretary Yang’s gift?”
“It was okay. “It will grow at a faster rate than now.”
“Fortunately, the. “You are naturally talented, so we can look forward to it.”
“If you mess up, please tell me anytime. “I will change my habits.”
“…Please don’t kill me.”
Somehow, Cheon Myeong-guk thinks that if he catches me, he will send me away.
Yang Joo-hyuk is useful, so even if I beat him up, I will do just enough to allow him to recover.
“…Then back to the point, things are going smoothly.”
Cheon Myeong-guk said that the special prosecutor’s office is actively working on the awakened brainwashing incident and is making arrests one by one.
“In that regard, I have something to ask you, Adept.”
“Please tell me.”
“Even if you are not satisfied with the fate or the sentence, can you please let it go?”
“Isn’t the sentence much?”
“You will be punished as severely as possible, but it will not be as severe as you wish.”
It was not because of the legal system of this country, but that vested interests in any country have the right to self-defense. Cheon Myeong-guk told me that he hoped that the special prosecution itself would make sufficient changes without my intervention.
I guess it doesn’t look good for me to step forward.
But will things go as Cheon Myung-guk wants? You’ll find out when you watch.
“All right.”
“thank you!”
“You have a face that I didn’t expect at all.”
“I thought you would accept it, but I didn’t expect you to accept it so willingly.”
The president is nodding his head next to him, but he secretly makes people feel sad. You really think I’m going to use all my might to destroy his head first. That’s like a hematoma.
[The way I see it, you and him…]
I just ignored Yongyong’s argument. Whenever he gets the chance, he tries to put me on a similar level to Hematoma.
Since he is a god, I think it is difficult to distinguish between a normal person and a crazy person.
And here is a method I came up with.
“You can just watch quietly and make it look like he died of natural causes.”
“….”
He looked as if he had been caught off guard, and I wondered if I had said something wrong.
“…Well, I guess we can’t stop a superhuman from doing something like that.”
“Thank you for your understanding. But when will you announce your candidacy?”
“I was already going to tell you that. “I think it’s right to share it with you.”
Cheon Myeong-guk explained the schedule, saying that the request this time was related to running for office. With Cheon Myeong-guk in charge of coordinating the special prosecutor’s work, he plans to gradually increase media exposure and warm up the atmosphere by showing his competence by completing his work successfully.
You’re trying to capture the feel of a competent practitioner and a seasoned politician at the same time.
“I will support you. “I will give a speech in support later when I get the chance.”
“Oh, that’s okay.”
“….”
I was left speechless by the firm refusal.
* * *
Was the congratulatory speech a bit over the top?
I should have talked about supporting election funds instead. However, in this part, Cheon Myeong-guk showed a resolute appearance.
Are you thinking of winning the election on your own without receiving help?
Looking at it that way, I thought it was premature to say that I could help someone when they could do it on their own.
I guess I was a lot more motivated.
“by the way.”
Will the special investigation proceed smoothly until the end? Those involved in the awakened brainwashing incident are those with vested interests in society. It would be naive to think that they will be easily captured and left behind for what they have.
The Blue House may have a plan, but I have never seen it go 100% according to plan.
When variables arise, I will have the opportunity to contribute even in a small way.
It was when I returned to the office, gathering my thoughts.
“what’s this?”
There was a huge poster with my face hanging in the building where my office was located.
This is none other than me smiling during the hearing.
I almost had a car accident.
Well, for your information, I wouldn’t die in a car accident.
“Superman! “I’ve been waiting!”
When I arrived at the office, Jin Se-jeong brought me into the conference room as if she was fishing for prey.
I remembered what I saw a little while ago and asked Jin Se-jeong a question.
“What is that?”
“You know that this hearing has become a hot topic, right? “I printed what I thought was the best moment!”
“…Tell me what the best moment is and printing.”
“That is to expand the goods business. Choin, this hearing was a bigger success than you expected! Do you know what’s really fun?”
Jin Se-jeong said that the remarks I made at the hearing were the most blatant and cruel at the same time compared to anything I have made so far.
“But it didn’t feel that way for the public to accept. That means only one thing.”
“Is this the image you see?”
“that’s right! “This could be a tacit permission for the superhuman to use his hands without hesitation in the future.”
I don’t think I’m a villain, but I think I might look like one depending on who sees it. Because of that, he was attacked by public opinion saying he would soon become a villain. But are we going to a stage where such attacks can even be permitted, let alone attacked?
“Superman.”
“yes.”
“What I felt after watching the hearing was that Choin was literally born to become an idol!”
“….”
I suddenly feel dizzy. A title like < On how I, the worst villain, was a natural idol... > suddenly comes to mind.
“Let’s hear why you think that.”
“When I first saw him, he didn’t seem to care at all what his image was. “No, it was a nuance of what on earth such an image meant.”
“I guess so.”
“But what did you think of what Choin showed you at the hearing? “I will try to interpret it.”
At the same time, Jin Se-jeong fired a beam and projected the image of me speaking at the hearing across the entire wall of the meeting.
…Isn’t this an overt rebuke?
“In the last remark, which can be said to be the highlight, Choin instinctively looked at the camera and adjusted the angle. This means that I instinctively knew how to look good on camera. And this smile is the same smile that Superin trained hard with me!”
In the end, even though my remarks were anti-social, it was my smile that made a strong impression.
Don’t you usually pay more attention to the content of what you say?
Jin Se-jeong firmly said no.
“What’s important is the image. “People in the world care more about what they see on the outside rather than looking deeply into the essence.”
Can you make so much change with just this one thing?
“The ability to impress the public at the moment of need is an essential ability for an idol. “You have idol abilities that are better than any other idol!”
“….”
Jin Se-jeong was clearly praising it.
But why is my mind dizzy?
I have Hye-gwang Sim-eo and Man-dok Bul-chim, but I feel helpless against Jin Se-jeong’s mental attack.
“So what is the conclusion?”
“So you’re a natural idol? “I’d like to take this opportunity to check out the goods business a bit more, but I need permission!”
I wanted to say that I would allow it, so please stop, but I held it back.
If I allow this, I think I’ll fall into a deeper hole.
“What are the pros and cons?”
“The advantage is that we can further solidify Choin’s fan base and expect an influx of new fans, and the disadvantage is that, um, wouldn’t Choin’s image become more of an idol?”
< About how I, the worst villain, was a natural idol... > kept going through my mind.
I wonder if I can leave it like this.
“Just trust me!”
Jin Se-jeong speaks triumphantly while pounding her chest.
It seemed like only the person involved didn’t know that it was a bigger problem.
But I could see that the proposal wasn’t bad in the grand scheme of things.
Regardless of whether I have natural talent or not, I have confirmed that the image created by Jin Se-jeong is helpful.
I guess I should accept it.
“All right.”
* * *
Those in power are diligent. This is in line with what I say about evil being industrious; those in power move tirelessly to maintain and increase their power.
Knowing that, I did not think that the special prosecutor would arrest them all. This is because it makes no sense for people who work hard to increase what they have, giving up everything and meekly being judged by the law.
That’s why I was able to keep calm about the news of the escape of the suspects who were scheduled to be arrested.
“….”
In contrast, the atmosphere at the Blue House was gloomy. In particular, Cheon Myeong-guk, who was leading this matter, had a very clouded expression.
“The biggest mistake is that it appears that they are not amenable to the judgment of the law.”
It is easy to chase down those whose whereabouts are unknown.
But then things get bigger.
Cheon Myeong-guk was concerned that those in power were refusing to face the law when they committed crimes. This is because it is believed that society can no longer be maintained in its intact form when social leaders deny the law.
It’s time for me to step forward.
“Is it okay if I step forward?”
“Can I ask you a favor?”
“yes.”
“But the whereabouts of those who escaped are unknown. If you start looking for it in earnest, you might be able to find it, but in that case…”
That’s why I said it was tricky.
Of course, that’s just Cheon Myeong-guk’s opinion, and for me, a few clues are enough.
You can take the most dangerous but fastest route in the world.
“There is a way. “You can use the villain’s path.”
“The villain’s way?”
The President and Cheon Myeong-guk look puzzled. Are you sure you don’t know this? This is a method I used very well when I had a hematoma.
Ah, since there was no hematoma right now, it was a time when it would not be activated properly.
“It’s a way to traverse the monster’s habitat. “It is difficult for pursuers to properly pursue monsters, and as a villain, they have the advantage of being able to break through the fastest route and reach their destination.”
Villains with great power mainly use this method. It’s cumbersome, but it’s the best way to shake off the chase. But in my last life, Cheon Myeong-guk fired a missile here.
I had a way to carve out my own path, but the missiles caused the monsters to go crazy, so the bombings became bombings, and the monsters followed as monsters, and the chasers followed as chases, so I had a hard time.
“huh?”
As I was reminiscing about old memories for a moment, I noticed something strange about the way people around me looked at me.
“Why are you doing that?”
