The Crazy Villain Regains His Sanity - Chapter 401

Episode 401

His words were so disgusting that it was difficult to listen any further.

In the end, it was nothing more than doing what he wanted.

I was just caught up in a situation that I had no control over.

If he was alive, I would have twisted his neck with my own hands.

But the guy is already dead.

It is fortunate that there is at least a body left.

The moment I tried to force myself out of the fantasy, words that were difficult to ignore came out.

[This power will be passed on to those who have earnestness. And the best way to gain strength would be through consuming blood. Blood is the ocean and core of information that contains everything. Those who accept this will gain more power depending on how strong their mental power is.] What

becomes clear from this is that obtaining blood feeding was due to the guy’s arrangement.

However, my mental state after gaining this power was not healthy.

Because I lagged behind others, I had low self-esteem, and I sought power to make up for it. I thought that greater power was the only way to set me upright, and rather than refining myself, I constantly coveted power.

The result was the birth of a madman called Hematoma.

The guy didn’t even pay attention to that fact.

[Even if that monster destroys the world, it won’t be a bad thing since it will cause damage to my people who will destroy me. It’s just a shame that I couldn’t witness the scene myself.]

The appearance of the reclusive sage with a vague smile began to fade.

You just say something and try to disappear.

“for a moment.”

As I was repeating some information, I remembered that I didn’t hear the information I really needed to hear.

The guy only explained about getting more power.

So how did hematomas come about?

I tried to ask that, but my mind slipped out of his world and outward.

[are you okay? Are you coming to your senses?]

When I returned to the original world, I saw Yongyong wandering around frantically.

The otaku guy in the corner is self-indulgent until the end.

“How much time has passed?”

[It was less than 10 seconds.]

It was literally a split second. But in the meantime, the cold invaded deep into my defenseless body.

I hurriedly drove away the chill and used extreme super regeneration to return my body to its original state, but I still felt uneasy because I couldn’t hear what I wanted to hear from what he said.

[What’s going on?]

“That guy knew he was going to die.”

[Really?]

“I just like to stay in the corner of my room, but that doesn’t mean I don’t have any sense of humor.”

[Then why…]

“Did you not have any regrets in life?”

I could only guess why. It may have been so envious of humans that it chose to burn its last flame even though it knew that it would be exploited and then destroyed.

No, it was clear from his actions.

“You got caught up in that stupid thing.”

Of course, it cannot be said that his actions were 100% responsible.

Because in my last life, I acquired blood feeding much later than now.

A few years later, blood feeding may have developed an ego, or else a thunderbird or a self-proclaimed god may have discovered this place and played a prank on it.

Unless the future continues the same way, there is nothing I can know.

One thing is clear: in the past, I was caught up in the pranks of the divine beasts and was just played by their pranks without knowing who was responsible.

“I guess we can just take care of all the people involved.”

There is also a self-proclaimed god among them.

[You are so cruel.]

“It’s no big deal.”

After Yongyong shrugged his shoulders at what I said, I looked around.

In addition to the blood-eating core, there were two things that appeared to be its legacy in the cavity.

“Did you look at that?”

[It was all force operation in an advanced direction. If you use that, you can diversify the expression of power. I learned a lesson. I could understand why the other divine beasts tried to get close to me.]

I also looked and saw that there was a very complicated flow involved. It was a very perverted level of force use, so it must have reached its extreme as a divine beast.

I gladly passed it on as I didn’t need it.

“You retrieve them.”

[Yes.]

After examining the Hermit Sage’s achievements, I left it to Yongyong to collect them. Just looking at it, it looked like if I touched it, a chain explosion would occur and the cavity would collapse.

“And that’s all that’s left….”

Yongyong and I both looked at the corpse of the hermit sage.

The huge fuselage, which was well over 100 meters long, must have looked daunting and solid when it was alive.

[Can’t I retrieve that too?]

Yongyong said that with the intention of returning his fellow countrymen, Shinsu, to nature.

I’m not particularly opposed to that either.

“wait.”

[Huh why? Hey, what are you doing now….]

I put my fingertips together and cast a bladestorm on his corpse.

Damn it!

The bladestorm with all its might tore through the body of the guy who was not protected by the Force.

Yongyong looked devastated as he looked at the body that had instantly turned into rags.

[What are you doing?]

“I paid back what I owed that guy.”

It would have been better if I had done it while I was alive, but it’s just a shame I couldn’t do it.

I wanted to cut more, but the wounds were already full.

It’s a shame, I should have been there to deal with that guy.

[Wow, what a scary person.]

Yongyong muttered as he collected the body of the hermit sage. The body gave off a soft light that illuminated the dark cavity and then dispersed as if it was melting into thin air.

[It’s over.]

“Then let’s go.”

This trip was fruitful.

After leaving the secluded sage’s abode, I took a high-speed flight not to Europe, but to Seoul.

The original plan was to meet a saint and talk to God, but after hearing the story of the hermit sage, I felt the need to clear my complicated mind.

I looked at the core resting on my hand.

In my last life, I somehow obtained this. There is a high possibility that the will of this core, not my will, was at work there.

Without even knowing it, in my last life I thought I had great talent and went crazy from the power.

It was entirely my responsibility, but now that I know the details, I have someone to blame.

However, there was one question here.

“Why is there no hematoma?”

The presence of something that should exist in the core was not detected. At first, I thought it was because my ego wasn’t growing. If so, there must be at least a small seed within the core, but no such presence has been detected.

why? It is a gift created by Shinsu. If the guy is greedy, he may have implanted his own will.

Just like during the instant death.

However, there were no traces of the blood feeding core anywhere.

Then, it comes down to one conclusion.

“It didn’t exist?”

The hematoma did not exist from the beginning?

It was a difficult statement to understand. So, where on earth did the hematoma exist?

[If there are no seeds, other seeds will be planted.]

Yongyong said to me who was worrying endlessly. Even when I heard that, it was difficult to understand. Planting a seed when no one was in the core?

[There is a host. The host’s ego becomes the seed.]

“….”

My mind went blank for a moment. I couldn’t immediately understand what Yongyong was saying. Then I soon realized what those words meant.

“So, the ego can be formed through the existence of a host?”

[Because it is a core created by Shinsu sharing his power, not anything else. If the soil is good, the seeds will grow well.]

So does this mean that the blood species was created based on my ego? That crazy guy? So it’s true that he’s another me?

“You’re not doing that on purpose, are you?”

[Why are you doing this again? I’m just telling you what I know.]

Well, Yongyong still doesn’t know that I’ve returned to the past. If that’s the case, then you’re just telling the truth without knowing that this core I got is blood-feeding…

“I’m going crazy.”

That crazy guy was me?

I feel dizzy from the unbelievable facts.

Anyway, that crazy guy was born from my ego.

I tried hard to deny it, but once I was convinced, it felt like an uncontrollable weight.

I was the hematoma itself.

How on earth can you be so crazy?

I didn’t understand the hematoma, but at the same time, I felt fortunate that I kept the line until the end.

[what’s the matter? [Suddenly?]

Yongyong approached me with a worried expression.

Yes, Yongyong is the only one who knows this fact. Then, if I deal with that guy, there will be no one anywhere in the world who will find out that I was a hematoma.

Should I deal with it? How to handle it? Should I blow it up in an instant and then fly to Mt. Baekdu? And just brush it off before you react.

[Hey, are your eyes dangerous? What are you trying to do now? I didn’t do anything!]

…Okay, we don’t know yet, so let’s leave it at that. Not yet.

“never mind.”

[If anything strange happens, please tell me. I don’t want to fight with you.]

“Okay, okay.”

Although he is a bit lacking, he is a good friend. Sometimes he intervenes without notice, but it helps me, so I’ll have to endure it.

“Aren’t you going to talk to Hyuna about this?”

[I have to tell you, but is it okay?]

“It’s okay. “If Hyuna knows this, it will be easier for her to deal with it.”

[That’s right.]

“Then tell me.”

[okay. Don’t worry too much. Because I also think that the actions of God and the Thunderbird were wrong. And that thought would be the same for Hyuna.]

In most cases, it is correct to think that way. But will Hyuna and Yongyong be able to clash with the self-proclaimed god to correct the twisted facts?

I’m honestly skeptical about that part.

[Don’t worry too much.]

“What do you think I’m worried about?”

[I’m calling for non-intervention as much as possible, but at least I know what’s right and what’s wrong. And I know that we have to move to correct it.]

“….”

[Hyuna probably thinks the same way as me. Because I think we must protect our identity in order to remain noble beings.]

“What about other divine beasts?”

[…I guess they won’t think anything of it?]

Then it might be a good idea to get rid of them first before they get attached to the self-proclaimed god.

[Don’t think strange things! Because you can try to persuade them first. Understand? huh? Don’t do anything weird until I get back!]

“I’ll try.”

[Wow, that is the most unbelievable thing to say.]

“Then don’t believe it.”

[No, I will believe it. So don’t do anything else! I will be watching!]

After saying that, Yongyong seemed to think that my words would change and disappeared in an instant.

Perhaps because I saw so many sinister divine beasts, I found his behavior cute.

The world is in such a mess.

“…Then, let’s take a break and gather our thoughts until the conversation comes together.”

I can’t just sit around and play, so I have to do something.

Thinking that I should stay in Seoul for a while and take care of business, I contacted Franz, who was probably working hard in Europe by now.

“Young Master?”

[What happened all of a sudden?]

“Something urgent happened, and I need to come to Korea.”

[what? Why do I….]

“If it’s too late, the world may end.”

[what? What the hell is going on! Tell me more!]

“Then I will assume you are coming.”

That ends the call.

I decided to take a leisurely rest and gather my thoughts until old Franz arrived.
