The Crazy Villain Regains His Sanity - Chapter 398

Episode 398:

I felt like there was no way things in the world could be resolved smoothly.

extinction? Extinction? When we say extinction, it means the complete disappearance of existence.

I asked Windigo.

“Why did it disappear?”

[I don’t know the detailed reason. What was clear was that the Thunderbird and God showed signs of hiding. In my view, it was not a natural extinction.]

When I hear those words, I am reminded of the scream that a Shinsu once made.

The divine dragon that created Draculea.

I heard that he was betrayed and created a two-horned monster with the intention of burning the world.

What exists in common between then and now is a guy who calls himself God.

Whenever that guy was caught in the middle, something unexpected happened.

“The two guys were playing around…”

[I don’t know anything about the rest.]

“This is enough.”

According to Windigo, the harvest was greater than expected. I thought that the guy called the Hermit Sage might be the divine beast who created blood feeding.

[What will you do if it turns out to be that guy?]

I said without hesitation what Yongyong said.

“I can’t help it.”

If the culprit who twisted my fate has disappeared, there is no longer anyone to blame.

But there are also regrets. I wanted to meet you in person and hear the answer.

“Thank you for providing the information.”

[I’m just informing the person I recognize. I’m glad it was helpful.]

Unlike the first time, Windigo comes out favorably.

If he had come out with a twisted mind, I don’t know how far he would have gone.

Was hitting with all my might the correct answer?

He seems to be generous to people he approves of.

[Do you have any plans for next time?]

“Then in the end, I have no choice but to go meet this guy named Shin.”

[Ah, is that the guy who calls himself God? He was a guy who thought that only he could become a true god.]

Windigo closed his mouth and seemed to be thinking about something. Then I suddenly gave him some advice.

[Before you go find him, go to the Atlantic Ocean first.]

“Atlantic Ocean?”

That is where Leviathan is.

You didn’t mention that, but I think you’re referring to Leviathan?

[There are monsters in the Atlantic Ocean. He is someone we cannot easily see.]

“I know.”

[Now that you know, talking becomes easier. This is a guy named Leviathan.]

“He’s like the guy I know.”

[Leviathan is one of the people in the world who knows the most about this god.]

“Why?”

[Because he was also involved in the creation of Leviathan.]

It’s hard to find a place that doesn’t get caught here and there.

[Yes.]

* * *

After parting ways with Windigo, I walked east.

I could travel by high-speed flight right away, but I had to organize my thoughts in my head first.

[What are you thinking?]

“Did you think Leviathan and the self-proclaimed god were related?”

[No, I had no idea. All we heard was that the monster killed its creator. So I thought there were no more divine beasts involved.]

“Me too.”

With the recognition of Hyuna and Yongyong, Leviathan was no longer blocking the Atlantic Ocean.

The appearance of a being that is comparable to a divine beast even though it is a monster made the other divine beasts uncomfortable, but Hyun-ah also explained that there was no divine beast that could attack them at the cost of their own loss.

Then why didn’t Leviathan reveal that fact? Because you want to hide it? Or do you want to forget? Or do you have other plans?

In the end, it was a question that could only be solved by meeting Leviathan.

And I also knew which guy was the culprit.

“This guy called God is the problem.”

[This guy had more problems than we thought. The Thunderbird was also sinister, but I don’t think it compares to him.]

“What do you usually do in this case?”

There are suspicions that the self-proclaimed god has harmed his fellow countrymen on several occasions, and he is all involved in a conspiracy, helping to confuse the world.

At this level, it seems like some form of restraint is needed.

[Nothing. Even if sanctions were imposed, who would step forward?]

“You killed your own people?”

[It’s not certain yet.]

“I’m asking if it’s certain.”

[Perhaps they will be on guard? That’s the end.]

I didn’t have high expectations to begin with. If that’s the case, I guess I’ll have no choice but to take care of it myself.

[By the way.]

“Huh?”

[Why aren’t you talking?]

“What?”

[This is what you showed when dealing with Windigo! That method!]

“Ah, that.”

If you didn’t ask more, I was just going to pretend I didn’t know and move on. It was reported that Yongyong’s tact was different from before.

[It was made to deal with Shinsu, right?]

“That’s right.”

It was literally a useless tactic for anyone other than a divine beast.

Power and Gift This is a method that has been refined over the course of a year to determine how to influence divine beasts while researching the relationship between gifts and power.

It is a counter of the divine beast that uses the force and manifests power as naturally as breathing.

Of course, if you know that this method exists and prepare for it, it will not have much effect.

Instead, it might be a hassle.

“Did it look threatening to you?”

[It’s threatening. Didn’t Windigo kneel to you because of that?]

“I don’t think the same tactic will work twice.”

[I didn’t mean to subdue the opponent with that anyway. Isn’t it a success just to distract the other person?] Perhaps because

he followed me around for a long time, Yongyong’s eyes were quite good.

Since everything about Shinsu is threatening, I thought I needed a weapon that could threaten them.

[I have a question.]

“Tell me.”

[Do you think the divine beasts are your enemies?]

“….”

When Yongyong said that, I stopped walking and turned my head to look at him.

I had no choice but to give a proper answer to Yongyong’s serious look, which erased his usual playfulness.

“I think of him as a threat rather than an enemy.”

[Isn’t that what it is?]

“Does it look like I think of you and Hyuna as enemies?”

[That’s not true. But you think of beings like us as enemies.]

“At least not you.”

[Thank you for even saying something.]

But Yongyong seemed to want to hear an answer.

Which one comes first?

The gaze of humans and the gaze of gods are different.

“Humans are not much of a threat to Shinsu, but it is different from a human perspective.”

[Are we threatening you?]

“Apart from that, you have the power to destroy humanity if you decide to do so.”

[That’s right.]

“Then is it true that you are kneeling and surrendering before that mighty power?”

[But developing strength presupposes fighting.]

“You have to look at it as a concept of preparing.”

[Because you think it will happen someday?]

“It might seem that way. “But if you don’t think you could get hurt too, you’ll have to be swayed by your whims.”

I was sick of being swayed by someone else’s will rather than my own.

As such, even if Yongyong is dissatisfied, I will not neglect to prepare for dealing with Shinsoo.

“Because the divine beast basically ignores humans. “If all divine beasts could communicate like you and Hyuna, I wouldn’t want to use my power.”

[That’s a good thing.]

“You’re not asking me to do no research on an opponent I might be fighting, right?”

[I don’t know, it’s complicated. When I see you these days, I don’t know what you want.]

“I just want to know the origin.”

It was an unproductive goal, but once I had a clue, I couldn’t stay still.

Because I wanted to see the face of the guy who caused me to go crazy.

If it’s dead, even if it’s a corpse.

[Do whatever you want.]

Yongyong looked like he had given up.

I decided to rest for a day in Florida before leaving for the Atlantic Ocean, where Leviathan is located.

Meeting Akeri and fighting Windigo were starting to tire me out.

If you look at this, the human body is very fragile.

I would like to supplement this part if possible, but it is not easy to overcome the limitations of the species.

“It would be nice if we could replace the parts of divine beasts or monsters.”

[Is it because you don’t want to be a real human?]

“I’m saying this because I feel sorry.”

If we had transcended human limitations, we could have done more.

But that doesn’t mean I want to give up on humanity.

[That’s a good thing.]

“Then, let’s take a rest.”

* * *

As a result, rest in Florida became a rest filled with blood and screaming.

I don’t know how they knew, but the villains attacked the hotel where I was staying.

I thought it was an ordinary armed robber, but it wasn’t that. These guys were villains who lost their friends to me in LA. They attacked me to get revenge.

Even if you are the strongest in the world, do you think you can do anything while sleeping?

I’m sorry, but I can’t do anything even when I’m sleeping. How much experience did you have of being chased around when you had a hematoma? How could you have been unprepared when you fell asleep? I prepared from the moment they attacked and destroyed their heads.

Not only that, they broke into the temporary hideout and killed everyone they saw, but I’m not sure if this will be the end.

“The chain of resentment is not easily broken.”

[They’re going to attack me again?]

“It’s going to be even more sneaky and sneaky.”

Even if that happens, it won’t be able to hurt me. But those with a grudge will not be deterred by that fact alone.

Villains are that kind of people.

[Then what happens?]

“Everyone dies.”

[It’s a development without dreams or hope.]

“Because that’s reality.”

In the end, everyone has no choice but to die or give up, so it remains to be seen what happens.

In my case, I am the type of person who eliminates all regrets. All you have to do is pull out the roots so that they cannot even sprout, and then step on the ground firmly so that they cannot sprout.

The next day I crossed the Atlantic to meet Leviathan.

After Hyuna and Yongyong were introduced to me and their personal safety was guaranteed, full-fledged peace came as they were allowed to cross the Atlantic Ocean.

Satisfaction with Leviathan was also high. As the fear of the threat of the divine beast disappeared, the sharpness that was visible until then also disappeared.

However, since he was a monster and had a record of killing divine beasts, both he and I knew that this moment would not last forever.

“Come on. What’s happening all of a sudden? “Hyuna, you should have come with us too.”

“I will come back with Yongyong sometime soon.”

[Do you want me to come too? I don’t like him.]

Yongyong expressed his refusal, but he will come anyway if Hyuna asks him to come.

“So what brings you here?”

“I have a few things I want to ask you.”

“Let’s have some tea first and talk.”

Leviathan must have felt that this was a serious matter, but he erased his smile and guided them to their seats.

“It looks like serious content.”

“It could be serious or it could be nothing. At least for you.”

“I don’t care if you don’t pose a threat to me.”

“Depending on the case, it could be a threat to you.”

Perhaps it touched the most sensitive part.

In the worst case, Leviathan may turn into your enemy.

If that happens, we’ll have to start removing it.

“…It’s ominous. “It’s been a while since I found peace.”

“The peace that is forcibly maintained can be broken at any time.”

“So what is it?”

Then I said, looking at the guy who was ready to take questions.

“Do you know about God?”

“It’s also annoying.”
