The Crazy Villain Regains His Sanity - Chapter 27

Episode 27

Berserker opened the door to an abandoned house that wouldn’t be surprising if it collapsed right away. The house was filled with a mixture of bloody and musty smells that bothered my sense of smell, but this was a natural part of everyday life.

The place where his steps stopped was in front of a corpse with its head, arms and legs torn to pieces and its chest ripped open. Anyone can see that it was artistically torn apart.

“What a stupid death for a stupid guy.”

It was a feeling that came out of nowhere.

After acting so proud, such a ridiculous death.

“No, maybe Head Breaker is that great.”

The reputation of the puppet master known as immortal was real, so it would be fair to say that Head Breaker, who found and killed him, was amazing.

“······.”

Berserker, standing in the room, closed his eyes and accepted the remaining force flow in the room. I could see the scene in the room a few hours ago. The signal emitted from the puppeteer was controlling the puppet. Blue eyes seemed to pierce the room. A thunderbolt was seen following the signal created by the puppeteer.

What was within it was a murderous intent of such magnitude that it was difficult to even imagine.

A madness that makes you feel like you’re going crazy just by looking at it from the side.

There was a crazy person in the world who found it funny that the world called him Berserker.

“Tsk tsk tsk tsk!”

Berserker laughed, shaking off the madness that was trying to engulf him.

“I don’t know how much of what I saw was real.”

Everything was chaos itself.

The puppeteer didn’t die because his residence was discovered foolishly. What are the eyes that appear in the room and what is the lightning that penetrates the flow?

I tried to read it several times, but not everything was revealed.

He eventually gave up and left the abandoned house, where he arrived about 5km away.

In the traces of the intense battle, Berserker tried to sense the flow of the battle between Doll and Headbreaker.

But this time too, it went wrong. Headbreaker fights with lightning that destroys everything it touches. But no traces were detected here.

rather.

“···Why can I feel the scent of the Eradicator?”

No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t understand it. However, Headbreaker’s fighting style was not felt, and the only thing that filled it was the presence of the Eradicator.

“Are you saying the Eradicator is a head breaker? “For what reason?”

Was there a reason for the civil servant Hunter to pretend to be a villain? I tried to put the puzzle together using several clues, but gave up when the picture didn’t fit.

Instead, he assumed the opponent was an Eradicator and accepted the force flow.

·······!!!

Berserker’s eyes widened as he felt a dull pain hitting his chest. A massive murderous intent and madness that could not be compared to before swept through the interior.

Is this really a size that a person can have? All Berserker could do was take a deep breath under the most vicious will to devour it just by recognizing its existence.

“···There are even more reasons to watch Head Breaker.”

I wanted to see what kind of guy he was.

Berserker put aside his thoughts and shouted towards the thick grass.

“Come out.”

“······.”

“How long do you plan on watching?”

“···This is an ordinary contact.”

The person who appeared was a man with a normal face and dressed like a salaryman. However, what was felt about him was that he was at level 5 and had the ability to play an active role in the front line of a large guild.

Normally, we would never encounter something like this.

Berserker laughed as it seemed like something interesting was about to happen.

“Where are you from?”

“I came from the Holy Guild general operation team. “This is Lee Young-tan, the deputy team leader.”

“Did you tell me to watch over you?”

“I was told to convey words and items accurately.”

“Say it.”

“This is a message from a head breaker. He said Berserker would be here and to contact me if I encounter him.”

Then, he took out his smartphone and held it out to Berserker.

“······.”

Berserker looked at his smartphone and stretched out his hand. After a while, the bell rang. I didn’t know how to connect the call, so I was able to connect only after Youngtan Lee told me to push to the side. A voice came from beyond the smartphone.

-Berserker.

“Is it a head breaker? “You have something to say to me?”

-I’ll kill you soon, so don’t install it and just stay still.

“what?”

-Select your desired date and time. It will suit that kind of rhythm. Lastly, have a private meal and then contact me again. You can also use Talk. You know how to write, right?

With that, the call ended. Berserker, who was looking at his smartphone blankly, burst into laughter.

“Khahahaha! “You’re crazy!”

Kwasik!

A broken smartphone.

“······.”

Berserker stared blankly at the pulverized smartphone. Lee Young-tan showed no signs of embarrassment and took out another smartphone. Berserker looked at it silently and accepted it.

Also, since there would be no means of contact if it broke, I put it in my pocket to prevent it from breaking.

Only then did I regain my composure and smile again.

“It’ll be fun.”

‘Crazy guys.’

The guy who pushed himself into Berserker’s mouth thinking he wouldn’t die anyway.

A guy who is laughing at the idea of killing himself.

They were both the same guys.

Only Lee Young-tan, who was caught among the crazy people, felt like dying.

* * *

After finishing the puppet master, I headed to Shinsung Hospital where Yunhee was hospitalized. Choi Yun-hee’s single room. This benefit is given priority even though it is not a major injury. I think this is why people want to join the Holy Guild.

When I went inside, I saw a person wearing a patient gown and blushing with normal complexion.

Is that why I told you not to contact your parents? Since it wasn’t a serious injury, I listened to him. It’s not like the intestines ruptured or the stomach split open and the contents came out.

I heard from the nurse that he ate three bowls of rice, and that one rice bowl was huge. Even at home, I run out of rice and side dishes quickly. I guess that doesn’t change the fact that the culprit makes a fuss and shouts loudly when you ask if you’ve finished eating. I put down the fruit basket.

“Are you okay?”

“uh? Why did you come? “I’m being discharged tomorrow anyway.”

“My younger brother is hospitalized. I have to come see if he’s breathing.”

“Is that what you would say to your injured brother? I was joking. Thank you for coming. “If it wasn’t for my brother, I would have died.”

I shook my head as he spoke with an awkward expression.

“No, you did well. “It held up really well.”

“But I felt how poor my skills were. Should I have tried harder? “No, cancel what you just said!”

Shocked, Yoonhee tried to pick it up, but she heard it all.

“I’ll give you more when you’re discharged from the hospital.”

“No, I said it wrong. “It’s enough now.”

“I don’t think so.”

“Is it enough? “What I was talking about was the gift.”

“Gift?”

“I was just complaining. I thought it would make a difference if there was a gift. “Not everyone has it.”

The percentage of hunters who have gifts is very small. However, most hunters with high level skills possessed gifts.

Gifts grant special strength to hunters.

In the early days of the Awakening, some countries even conducted biological experiments to open the gift, but the result was a failure. I’m probably the only one who can figure out the type of gift based on blood intake.

I watched Yunhee and threw the bait.

“What if there was a way to have a gift?”

“Is there a way like that? really?”

I pretended to think for a moment and then nodded.

“there is.”

“Then tell me! I also want a gift. “I want to become stronger.”

“It’s a bit dangerous.”

“are you okay.”

Is it because of the desire for strength? It bothered me a little because it seemed like I craved power in my last life before I became a hematoma.

no. If you continue to pursue that desire, the distracting thoughts will disappear. If you let go of your strength, other desires will disappear as well. I guess I’ll use the pretext of opening a gift.

“First, get treatment well and improve your condition. “Let’s talk again later.”

“okay. “I remember everything my brother said, so don’t say you don’t remember later.”

“okay.”

If Yunhee has the gift, she will be better at hunting.

But won’t you be surprised if blood near the heart is drawn?

I decided to think about the rest later.

“ah! and. “Is it true what you watched?”

“huh?”

“Were you watching me play against a doll?”

I thought it was a daydream, but I remember the situation exactly.

“no.”

“I think I was watching.”

“······.”

His narrowed eyes pursued me persistently. I think I may try it a few more times in the future, but there’s no reason to reveal it already.

“Miss, there is no evidence.”

“Did you dream?”

“No, it was real! And take some of that.”

Yunhee pointed to the large pot on the table.

“What?”

“Open it.”

I lifted the lid and checked the contents.

What welcomed me with its delicious smell was the head of an owl. The pupils moved according to my gaze.

It was a soybean paste stew based on an oulboar head. How did this get here?

“Dahyun brought it to me to take care of my health. Your brother recommended it, right? it’s crazy? Are you crazy? “Are you crazy?”

“This is health food.”

“I ate rice with soup, but I can’t stand those eyeballs following me around. Dahyun says eyeballs are the most delicious, but how do you eat them? “My brother eats it.”

“okay.”

At Yunhee’s insistence, I returned home with Owlboar’s head soybean paste casserole.

It was an unexpectedly large harvest.

* * *

By the time I returned to the National Guard, the entire atmosphere in South Korea had calmed down as breaking news broke out about Kim Young-hwan’s death.

This is level 8 death and no one else’s. Even though he was aging, the impact of Kim Young-hwan was as deep as his shadow was dark.

As a result, claims that Jeong Joo-ho was responsible arose, but things quieted down when it became known that I had caught the puppeteer. However, inside the civil service organization, where morale was low, it was lamented that the leadership had completely passed from the government to the large guilds.

Their opinion is that catching Berserkers has become virtually impossible without the cooperation of large guilds. The government said it would invest the budget to develop level 8 superhumans, but blind money will only end up in other people’s pockets.

I’ll keep an eye on it, and if I get the privilege of not being arrested, I’ll kill it.

Anyway, the situation was moving as Lee Se-hee said. If time passes like this, there will be more things to ask for when the negotiation table is set.

“Welcome.”

In a moment, Jeong Joo-ho’s face became half-faced. The only reason his expression is not dark is because he saved face by eliminating the puppeteer. I guess it’s my fault that I couldn’t identify the body.

Should I go and get it now? It was too late because it would be bad after a few days. Next time, I’ll have to remove the head first.

Even if I brought it anyway, no one would know the puppeteer’s face.

“Is it true that the puppet master was eliminated?”

“yes.”

“No, I mean. You are said to be immortal. How did you get rid of it?”

“Puppetry uses waves of the Force to control puppets. We found the source of the wave. It was there. The puppeteer’s actual strength was of no use.”

“Why didn’t you bring the body?”

“I smashed my head. “Lee Se-hee said she could testify if necessary.”

“Is there really a need to go there? “It’s unfortunate, but I guess I’ll have to accept it.”

Joo-ho Jeong, who was scratching his head, said.

“Still, I survived thanks to you. There was so much chaos after Minister Kim Young-hwan’s death. The inspiration is like that too. “As you get older and your skills decline, you should take a step back. Don’t be greedy for no reason, tsk tsk!”

“I’m glad it was resolved well.”

Officially, Jung Joo-ho is my junior. I hope you stay motivated and help me for a long time.

“Anyway, I live thanks to you. “What would it have been like if it weren’t really you?”

“The atmosphere seems serious.”

“The government is dying. It is true that even though the man’s character was broken, he was dependable. If you’re going to go in vain like that, you should at least raise up your successor. Tsk tsk! “The way I see it, it would be difficult to come out anywhere else.”

“······.”

“On the other hand, if you reach level 8 now, your value will increase. It’s not a bad development for you. “It’s funny how someone’s death benefits someone.”

He smiled bitterly, saying that although he was relieved that the annoying human was gone, he would not be able to avoid being outnumbered in the future struggle for leadership with large guilds.

“Director.”

“Huh why?”

“Can you help me negotiate when I reach level 8?”

There is a high probability of rejection. Since Joo-ho Jeong has been a public servant his entire life and has been loyal to the country, he may think that my actions infringe on the interests of the country.

But as soon as he heard what I said, Joo-ho Jeong curled up the corner of his mouth.

“Junho. “To be honest, I’ve been waiting for you to say just that.”

“yes?”

“Honestly, is there anyone who has as much knowledge of government as me? I’ve been a civil servant hunter my whole life, and there’s no one above me that I don’t know. “I know where they grew up and what they did.”

“Please share that information later.”

I’ve already found something to sweep away.

“···Once you know that you have eaten it, cancel it. If you lose your hair, will your memory also disappear? You don’t remember? Anyway, since you asked me for help, I will fully help you. Aren’t you from the National Protectorate? “I have to step forward and give it to you.”

I was able to get information. So close.

Still, if you stimulate it a few times, the necessary information will pour out.

“I thought you would say it was infringing on national interests.”

“What is infringement? Anyway, if you don’t get it, everyone else will hurt you. Did you see that the support fund was allocated this time to promote level 8 training? It’s all blind money. It’s much better to use it to flirt with you than to get into the assholes of strict guys. I will properly punish the government. Just trust me.”

“I believe it.”

This guy must have accumulated a lot over the years.

“So, what do you mean?”

“huh?”

“I’m trying to catch Berserker.”

“Have you given up yet?”

Jung Joo-ho, who was smiling, was surprised and pulled out his hair.

Can I do that?

* * *

My relationship with Berserker goes back to my last life.

The guy who came with the crazy idea of constructing nothingness was a madman who wanted to complete his own world under different standards from others.

It was not revealed until shortly before his death that he was a level 8 gift holder.

This time, the gift was not revealed, but it was revealed to be level 8.

However, I still remember the things he said when he looked at me to the point that the thought of him as an unusual guy remains in my memory.

“I said it was a stellar moment.”

Berserker chased after talents that could inspire him.

That’s probably why I followed the traces of the Eradicator. He said that he was more afraid of death than death, and even at the risk of death, he tried to catch a glimpse of the star.

I don’t know if he saw it until the moment he died. But the obsession with power was real. Even though he was 60 years old when he died by my hand, rather than regressing in his skills, he had hidden all kinds of secrets to become stronger.

Berserker – When will it come?

Berserker – I’ve already arrived.

Berserker – Waiting is boring. This is also a seasoning for enjoyment. haha!

Berserker-[Photo attached]

Berserker-You can come early if you have time.

This kid must have been bothered by the fact that I asked him if he didn’t know how to write.

He’s been sending messages to me since 3 hours ago.

Why are you sending me a selfie of me sitting down? The photo capacity was also extremely large.

I left exactly on time.

When we arrived at the promised location, we saw Berserker sitting on a tree stump, as shown in the attached photo.

“It’s on time. “I almost got tired of waiting.”

“Who’s early and long?”

“I was so excited I couldn’t hold back.”

“Crazy guy.”

“Kkkkkk!”

He smiles even when he hears swearing. Maybe what Jeong Joo-ho said is right. This guy is truly crazy. If we hang out together, I think I’ll get colored too.

“Have you filled the hole in your stomach?”

“Enough. I also have a question.”

“What?”

“Are you the Eradicator?”
