The Crazy Villain Regains His Sanity - Chapter 246

Episode 246

These baby fish are probably marlin babies. He must have taken it with him while it was out of his territory and kept it within his field of vision.

Although it was bigger than me, it could hardly be called a cub.

Perhaps the marlin saw its location as the safest place.

But even that is over as long as it depends on me.

────!

A marlin was approaching from behind with fierce force. Even so, I couldn’t do more than was necessary as long as it was in front of me.

I smiled brightly and turned around. In front of me, an extremely angry marlin was approaching.

“I guess it’s your child. “If you see it coming quickly.”

[What are you going to do?]

“Okay.”

There were so many ideas that it was hard to figure out how to handle them.

First, I need to calm down the crazy guy.

“stop. “If you come any closer, I will kill all your babies.”

The movement immediately subsides in response to my threats.

I accepted it because I knew it would be difficult for a smart guy to deal with me, but I guess he wasn’t a bastard.

One guy tried to approach me. Did you think you couldn’t see me because I was turned around?

Sigh!

He immediately cast a storm of blades and seriously injured him. Even if the parents are plus-stage monsters, the offspring is just a cub.

The other cubs were circling around, making a fuss.

“If you mess up one more time, I’ll kill you right away.”

The cubs also became quiet at my warning. I fixed my gaze on the marlin watching me.

There were holes here and there from having to endure it several times with my body, but it seemed to be fine. Even that was fully recovered due to his good recovery ability.

It was a shame that I couldn’t test it properly because the movement was so fast, but it worked out well.

In that case, you just have to target it properly.

I said to the marlin.

“If you calmly take my attack, I will give the cubs time to escape. “The longer you last, the farther your babies will be able to run away.”

[Ah, it’s the devil!]

An unprecedented situation is happening where Shinsu believes in the devil.

I just do my best to achieve what I want.

Regardless of what Yongyong said or not, I looked at the marlin. It was interesting to see what decision he would make.

Since Hyegwang Simeo worked hard, the monster language would have been activated and he would have understood my words.

That’s it!

The guy who thought for a while answered. A rough interpretation in monster language would be ‘I accept it.’

This is the tearful heart of a parent.

Maybe he thought it was worth holding on to after taking a few bullets. Or was he thinking of sacrificing himself for his children? In any case, it is true that weaknesses have been exposed.

If so, you should actively use it.

“Hold on.”

────!

The moment I raised my hand, the marlin cried out and the cubs behind it started running away quickly. The speed of running away was faster than I thought.

I didn’t care and cast Force Refining on the bullet and fired it.

Plop! Bub bub bub!

Dozens of bullets hit the marlin. Due to my reckless shooting, the marlin’s injuries grew out of control. I didn’t kill him on purpose because I had to properly act as a punching bag.

If you can hit it right, force refining can inflict fatal wounds even on plus-level monsters. As I become more familiar with it, I will be able to kill monsters and divine beasts.

It’s nice to not have to worry about just aiming for the head. If I were to become a two-horned monster or a divine beast, I could take full advantage of the fact that my attacks would become monotonous if I only aimed for the head.

There is no reason to bring yourself to lose in a battle of numbers.

More than a hundred strikes had reduced the marlin to rags.

Since I had roughly assessed its power, I set out to deal with the aftermath.

“You went quite far. “Let’s go, Yongyong.”

[You are a real devil.]

“Quickly.”

[Okay.]

Yongyong accepted it with a reluctant expression and then had me move through space.

The place I arrived was where the young marlins had escaped. The guys who were trying their best to run away looked scared when I appeared in front of them.

“First one.”

I rushed in earlier and fired a bullet at the injured guy.

puck!

The guy lost his life with his sharp upper jaw broken and his head caved in. I didn’t stop there and took care of the other bastards one by one.

Should I just let these guys go who will later tell me I’m crazy?

Even if it was a cub of a plus level monster, it was still a cub. There’s no way it’s an immediate threat. But given time, you won’t know. Since he has already become my enemy, I cannot rule out the possibility that he will grow up like this and become a nuisance in the future.

Even the slightest possibility must be thoroughly trampled to avoid any setbacks.

They scattered in all directions and tried to escape, but we went to them all one by one and eliminated them all.

When the chicks were all bleeding out, a marlin approached from afar.

You didn’t have to go far, they came to you on their own.

────!

The marlin cried out as it saw its slaughtered chicks. The earnest thought I had for my children spread outward. Why are you bringing cubs to a place where there is a fight like that?

If you target others, you should know that you may also be targeted.

Ah, if you look at the inside story, is he a victim? After all, it wasn’t something I did.

Thanks to this, it was nice to be able to easily test the power of the gift.

The marlin, engulfed in anger, charged without hesitation, but allowing injuries and unexpected results was just a cliched development.

puck!

The head of the marlin that was hit by the mine was caved in. The man, who had already suffered fatal injuries and had used up all his strength to get here, died.

Still, since my child and I died on the same day and at the same time, we should be able to go to the afterlife in peace.

I dragged the hanging marlin’s carcass and rose to the surface of the sea. I pretended not to, but fighting in the sea was very draining on the force.

I’m curious about something like underwater breathing, but should I look for it with a dog?

[You are the devil. There’s no reason to look for the devil anywhere else. There’s a devil here. Because of you, all the devils would have lost their jobs and starved to death…]

“Why are you fussing so much?”

[If you look at today’s battle, the word ‘devil’ cannot help but come out. You are the real devil.]

It’s hard to grab onto the other person’s weakness and exploit it to your advantage.

I just did my best to win.

Yongyong heard the words with one ear and let them go with the other, then stuck his hand into the marlin’s heart and drank its blood. This is a task to find out what kind of gift there is.

“Nothing much.”

There was only one gift inherent in the marlin’s heart, and that was the ‘charge’ with its sharply protruding upper jaw.

Even if I charged in, it wouldn’t have helped, so of course the gift was trash.

But the taste may be different.

“I think it would be delicious if I cooked raw fish.”

After recalling that it was quite large but moving dynamically, we headed to Okinawa with the body.

Because it’s Okinawa, there must be a sushi chef, right?

* * *

When I arrived after catching the marlin, the whole of Okinawa was in a festive mood.

It would be a natural reaction since the demon that isolated them on the island and tried to destroy the entire city has disappeared.

I asked Josuke to sashimi the marlin with the help of the best chefs in Okinawa, keeping only what I could eat and donating the rest. It’s quite big, so it could feed several people.

What’s interesting about this fish is that its scales, which were hard when fighting, change to no different from other fish when it dies.

Of course, it was a bit tougher, but it was at a level where experts wouldn’t have much trouble dismantling it.

After receiving the most delicious part, I took care of Yongyong first.

The guy who refused at first became increasingly greedy after tasting the eyeballs of the Devil’s Armor the last time.

“How do you feel?”

[It’s delicious!]

It has to be delicious because I didn’t give it to you for free.

The marlin sashimi I ate that way wasn’t bad. Although it is called a descendant of tuna, it never loses its taste. The gift was trash, but the raw fish left behind after death was good.

“It’s all thanks to Superhuman. Thank you for your help.”

“I just did what I had to do.”

“no. Even though they had great power, they all only acted shallowly and there was no one who stepped forward as willingly as Superinnim. Thank you again. “You are the benefactor of Okinawa.”

“I gratefully accept it.”

Being Okinawa’s benefactor doesn’t mean much, but there’s no reason to dislike the fact that he likes me.

When I think about it, I think Okinawa could be a pretty good halfway point when I go a long way by boat.

To do that, Josuke has to protect Okinawa for a long time, but seeing that he is protecting Okinawa until the end this time, it doesn’t look bad.

Should we decide to do public affairs in moderation?

Josuke was busy praising me, and Tamaki next to him also joined in the praise. Then he suddenly looked serious and spoke to me.

“Superman, there is something I would like to ask you.”

“What is it?”

“This is a story related to the future of Okinawa.”

I have a feeling that just hearing the first word of this is going to give me a headache.

I gave off a look that I didn’t really want to hear, but Josuke shared his thoughts.

“After mobilizing all of our intelligence, we found that the reason Aoi Wazawai attacked was because the central government kidnapped the cub. “It passed through Okinawa during transportation, and Aoi Wazawai discovered traces of the cub left here and attacked it.”

What Josuke is angry about is that the government deliberately took steps to draw aggro to Okinawa.

In the meantime, the mainland will be safe.

It may sound like an absurd paranoia, but such things happened calmly in this world where monsters were rampant.

“This is clear discrimination! No matter how much they discriminate against the mainland, how could they do such a cruel thing…!”

Tamaki spoke on behalf of Josuke, who was overcome with anger and was unable to speak.

“I don’t think this is everyone’s problem. Now we have many friends on the mainland who insist they should help us. We plan to work with those friends to uncover the truth about this incident.”

“Yes, try your best.”

There is no reason for me to care about them fighting and frying among themselves inside.

But from all my dealings with politicians so far, I don’t think I would have even said anything if it was going to end here.

As expected, Tamaki, who was watching me, spoke carefully.

“Superman, it may be shameless to ask you a favor, but may I ask you a favor?”

“I decline.”

“yes?”

I guess I’ve become a lot easier. In the past, if they showed any intention of using me, they would destroy my head first.

Since I decided to end it on a good note, I decided not to kill him.

“I have no intention of getting involved in troublesome matters. Especially if it happens abroad. “I’m sure you know very well that it’s not good for me whether things go well or things go wrong.”

“Superman, don’t do that, just help me just this once!”

“I already said no.”

“….”

Josuke’s mouth closed as he spoke firmly. The atmosphere may be awkward, but it’s much better than getting into trouble.

Tamaki had a look on his face, but he gave up when he looked at me.

“I understand the desire to resolve things easily, but it will only be possible for the parties involved to accept the results if they take responsibility.”

“Yes, sorry.”

There is no reason for me to get involved anymore.

I left the room so they could stir-fry among themselves.

Anyway, wherever they go, schemes run rampant and back-and-forth relationships continue.

Although I said I was free, I wondered if I was truly free from the endless tangle.

“I guess it’s inevitable if you want to live a social life.”

I’m talking about how relationships between people are intertwined and connected.

If you don’t like it, you become a villain, but now there’s no reason to do that.

By just thinking about it a little, the improvement around me wasn’t bad.

Above all, as long as I have excellent people around me, there is no need to give up an advantage.

[In the end, you’re going to do whatever you want, aren’t you?]

“That’s true. why?”

[I feel sorry for the people who have to deal with you.]

Pretending to be concerned about humans when it comes to divine beasts.

“If you have something to say, say it.”

[How did you know?]

“If you twist your body like that, wouldn’t it be read as if you have something you want to say?”

[Did I say that?]

I waited for Yongyong’s next words as he answered naturally.

[I’m going to meet Hyuna.]

“Are you going since I’m nearby?”

[huh. And I’m curious as to whether she knows the inside story.]

Well, Hyuna might know the detailed inside story.

Since I had no right to stop Yongyong from coming and going anyway, I obediently let him go.

Instead, I left only one request.

“Bring your friend’s fee when you come.”

[What?]

Yongyong screamed in horror.

[Why is my friend suddenly raining?]

“You ate what I gave you, right? Then you should bring your friend’s money too.”

[Wasn’t that something they just gave away?]

I guess they thought they were giving away the hard-caught sashimi of marlin for free.

“You can only be friends if you have clear calculations with each other.”

[I moved you through space!]

“Oh, that’s right.”

[and! If I had let my guard down, I would have just missed it. you! From now on, don’t give me food! No, don’t give me anything! I will never accept it!]

I thought that if I stabbed him while he was distracted, he would get over it, but it turned out to be a shame.

I decided to postpone collecting my friend’s fees until next time.
