chapter 9
Episode 9 – The possessor and the regressor
Meanwhile, at that time, the academy annex.
“Greureuk…!”
Rumia, who thrust her sword into the head of the monster who was struggling for the last time, exhaled a heavy breath and stepped back.
“haha…”
Monsters who have stopped their activities piled up like a mountain around her.
“This isn’t it. This isn’t it…”
Despite collapsing from exhaustion in the aftermath of the intense battle, Lumia was focused on one spot, standing erect.
[Villain Name <Trauma> Debut (LIVE)]
[605000 viewers]
A smartphone covered in blood from the wind that did not let go even after defeating numerous monsters.
[No, what is this? Is it real?]
[It’s the first time I’ve seen a great cry lol]
[Academy’s half faction]
A live broadcast that is being played in real time on that small screen and has already surpassed 600,000 viewers.
[Who the hell is that hero who saved the Great Eyes? Is this your first face?]
[He is the villain who debuted this time lol]
[But why are villains saving heroes and students? (I really don’t know)]
Lumia, who was observing the chat that passed quickly, muttered while grinding her teeth.
“This isn’t… Trauma-sama…”
A voice of embarrassment and anger escaped from her mouth.
“I mean, Trauma-sama is an absolute evil… not a clumsy dark hero like this…”
So, around the time that voice was getting louder.
“Only my own… my own villain…”
“It’s still loud.”
“……!”
Something sharp, brushing her cheek.
“hi?”
“You, you…!”
Lumia shifted her gaze forward and raised her sword with her eyes wide open.
“Blonde hair!!”
“Call me Dice.”
Paradise, which had sprung up laughter, was slowly walking towards her with hundreds of cards floating around her.
“Last time, you avoided yourself by yourself, so why did you go out on your own this time?”
“what?”
“Are you afraid that the story will go wrong and Haneul will die? You are also very sincere.”
As Dice flicked his finger lightly, the cards floating in the air began to resonate lightly.
“You, maybe…”
Lumia stared blankly at that figure, and opened her mouth with a long and brooding expression.
“Isn’t that the possessor?”
Dice, who intercepted the words midway, answered with a smile.
“But you’re the possessor, Rumia.”
And the static started.
“…Nonsense.”
Rumia, who opened her mouth in shock, muttered involuntarily.
“You, an extra like you… how could you…”
“That’s funny, Rumia.”
Then, Dice opened his mouth again with a cold smile.
“Why are you the only one pretending to be the main character?”
Hearing those words, Rumia’s face turned pale.
“You know that there are two main characters in this world, right?”
Dice looked at it and quietly stopped walking.
“Is the other one a first-year class 1 student?”
“that…”
“Fortunately, in this episode, all of the first-year class 1 are surviving.”
To the speechless Lumia, Dice whispered in a low voice.
“And the few monsters hiding inside the academy, we just cleaned them all up.”
“ah…”
“The only people who can tell the difference between ordinary people and monsters are the villains, right?”
And at that very moment.
– Faba Baba Baba Park!!!
Countless cards started to stick to Lumia all at once.
“………..”
However, for some reason, there was not a single card inserted into Lumia.
“After all, your abilities are a pain in the ass.”
“eww…”
“At this point, I thought my abilities would be even a little weak. Killing or kidnapping would be unreasonable.”
Dice, who had unnaturally missed and looked at the cards stuck on the wall behind him, looked at Lumia who was still in shock and said:
“Well, it doesn’t matter. I’m here to declare war today.”
“A declaration of war…?”
“I mean, with that good original knowledge, try hard for once.”
Seeing Lumia’s hand trembling with the sword, Dice whispered while raising the corner of her mouth slightly.
“Like last time.”
Upon hearing that, Lumia began to tremble and mutter.
“Give it back.”
“Hmm?”
“Give me back… the old man.”
Then, suddenly, she began to show a violent reaction.
“Senior is mine!! It’s only mine!!”
She rushed to Dice like lightning and swung her sword with all her might.
“Only me can understand you!!”
– Pajijik…!
“Only I can save the seniors of the future!! The only one who knows how to do that is me…”
However, Dice easily dodged that attack.
“Unfortunately, not anymore.”
Her blonde hair radiates beautifully.
“Now I will be his companion.”
At the same time, the cards on the wall started returning to her.
“I’ll send you a mysterious videotape soon.”
“for a moment…!”
As soon as the cards wrapped around the dice, Rumia hurriedly stretched out her hand.
“Consolation with that, please.”
It was futile.
– Slurry…
Dice, who had left those words, disappeared somewhere in an instant.
“……..”
Because there was only one card with a funny clown on it, and it was held in Lumia’s hand.

“A villain…?”
After hearing my words, the older sister tilted her head with a puzzled expression on her face.
“Ha, but. You saved us, didn’t you?”
“…… ttt.”
“I don’t know what your story is, but first…”
Then, she slowly started coming towards me again.
“……..!”
Then the sister’s eyes suddenly turn round.
“Wait, are you okay?”
“…Ugh.”
Why?
‘Is it a penetrating phase?’
It must have been that his tentacle pierced his heart when he blew off Resurrection.
The wound wasn’t that deep, but the blood wouldn’t stop bleeding because his body’s durability was low.
“Chuu, there’s too much bleeding. First, I’ll support you…”
That’s why she’s been clenching her teeth for a while, so she says so and reaches out to me.
“…..ah?”
However, the face of the older sister who had stopped in that state turned white.
“Those eyes…”
I must have seen my eyes exposed through the broken mask.
Well, I changed my eyes while transforming, so I don’t have to worry about being bothered.
Still, seeing that he was staring at my eyes that were still dripping with blood, he seemed to have a sense of indebtedness to his blindness.
Would she have reacted like this even if my eyes were blind?
Of course not.
“It’s not a big deal, so don’t worry about it.”
I didn’t really want to brag that I lost my left eye while protecting you. So, after answering that, I tried to quietly leave the room.
– Sreuk…
For some reason, she hurriedly grabs my arm and stops me, then starts caressing my eyes with trembling hands.
“………”
Her hand reached the unfocused eyes.
“What are we going to do with this…”
Thanks to that, I feel very uncomfortable and try to push her again, but she suddenly sits down as it is.
I wonder if my legs have lost strength from being beaten so badly.
“you…”
“……?”
“Why are you… me…? What does that look like…”
Since he is tilting his head, he now looks like he has seen a ghost and even speaks nonsense that he cannot understand.
Did you hurt your head too?
Either way, I didn’t want to give her any more attention, so I turned and headed towards the students.
“Why, why are you…?”
“Hehe.”
Then, the guys backed away with a slightly frightened expression.
“Has anyone seen where Rumia is?”
When I ask a question like that, the students quietly shake their heads.
“Then who has seen the rapport?”
“Oh, I’ll be on the roof!”
I couldn’t help but ask a question again, and someone raised his hand and answered.
“He told us. He said he would be on the roof too.”
“Well.”
“I actually saw him go up to the roof!”

Justia’s younger brother was answering me with twinkling eyes.
“is it.”
My ultimate goal is Lumia.
However, now that the top-ranking heroes have flocked to her, it is impossible to find her whose location is unknown.
If so, you should change your purpose.
“Thank you.”
Having decided on my destination, I looked at the students for a moment and then opened my mouth.
“Wait here until the faculty and staff arrive. Don’t listen to the orders of the heroes.”
“yes?”
“Only follow the instructions of the staff.”
I don’t know why, but most of the heroes had suspicious tentacles wriggling on their bodies.
However, only a few faculty members had tentacles planted.
Since even that was attacked by the executives earlier, the safest beings right now are the faculty members.
“thank you.”
After I finished talking, I was about to walk upstairs, but Justia’s brother, who was looking at me, muttered in a low voice.
“By the way, he’s a villain.”
“………”
“No matter how you look at it, you’re a hero. You.”
For a moment, it felt like my mind went blank.
a hero
It’s something I’d never heard before, even when I was working as Agent Black.

Justia, except for her.
“under.”
bitter laughter erupts
After all, the person who said it was a being who resembled her very much.
“You are the hero.”
I put my hand on her head without realizing it, and whispered in a slightly trembling voice.
“Not like me.”
There were many things I wanted to share with her.
Because that Justia was the child she always brags about, saying that it looks like the main character of a boy’s cartoon popped out.
But there was no more time.
“Watch out for Rumia.”
“yes?”
I left those words hoping that she would not go through the same procedure as my sister, and I began to hasten my steps.
“…there is a proverb that instead of a pheasant, it is a chicken.”
Towards the sympathy, who will be on the roof by now.

– Jiying…
“Well?”
As I was working hard up the stairs, something that looked like a drone flew by me.
> no attack
As I tried to put my hand in my pocket, thinking it was an attack from the enemy, something quickly turned around and displayed text on the monitor.
> It’s me!
“Who are you?”
> Genius pretty girl. Hero Magall sympathetic gonic. The mascot of the Dominating Hands.
Seeing you talking nonsense hard today, I thought Pandora was right.
> dear Why did you save them earlier?
After confirming that they are allies and silently starting to climb the stairs again, he turns around and flies in front of me and asks questions.
“Are you filming?”
> I’ve turned it off for a while now. be safe.
After finding the camera on the drone, he frowned and asked a question, and he answered that way.
“…Now is?”
It’s a bit of a catchy word, but I didn’t have the energy to worry about it until then.
“I just wanted to give you some shit.”
> To whom?
“To the being who made me this way.”
That’s why I gave a rough answer, but in fact, I was thinking about something completely different.
‘I’m a fool too.’
Most of all, he lost all his precious colleagues.
For that reason, I let her go in vain, whom I admired.
Even, he was pushed to the edge of the cliff under the absurd accusation that he had killed her who had been sent away.
And eventually, he became a villain, blinded by his revenge.
But really stupid
despite being like this.
I still like helping someone.
The nerd who became a hero simply because he liked helping and saving someone, still remained inside of me.
‘Now I don’t know.’
The moment I lost my eyes after saving everyone by throwing my fists, I couldn’t help but burst into laughter as proof of that.
“I have to take revenge.”
> Revenge?
Mumbling like that with a somewhat refreshed heart, Pandora spins the drone and asks questions.
> What revenge…
“Shh, be quiet.”
Acknowledging that it is still good to save others, and revenge are different stories.
He was still full of heart to take revenge on those who brought me and Justia to this level.
“Hey, you useless bastard…!”
“I’m sorry… I’m sorry… I’m sorry…”
So I arrived on the roof and quietly peered through the cracks in the door, so I saw two Inyeongs in the distance.
“With the villains… No, it was a desperate opportunity to end the war with those damn bastards who wore villain skins! But, by the way…!”
“Groo…”
Having confirmed the owners of the seal, I opened the door with a quiet smile.
“Who, who are you?”
“…!”
Then, the sympathizer who stepped back in surprise, and someone who looked at me with a surprised expression as well.
“Obviously, I threw it to pieces with my comrades, but the dragon also crawls back.”
“Yeah… Guy…”
Its identity was none other than recreation.
“I see the playback is a bit slow, so it must have been a critical hit?”
As the name of a hero with the meaning of resurrection and rebirth, the concept inhabited by him is the concept of ‘regeneration’.
It’s a pretty deceptive ability that can heal any kind of damage.
“Hey, get it done! Get it done!”
“Grrr…”
When the sympathizer who found me screams with a blushing face, Resurrection comes up to me with a body full of wreckage.
If it had been someone else, there would have been no way to fight against the guy with invincible recovery ability and the means of attacking the demonic beasts.
But, unfortunately, his opponent was me.
– Ugh…
I don’t know if it’s because he was extremely vigilant before, because he was a guy who walked up to me without even maintaining his reason properly.
Using hypnosis to subdue it would be a matter of time.
“Stay still. Let’s see…”
So, I took out my smartphone from my pocket and tried to run the hypnosis app.
“……?”
I stopped walking, found the guy looking at me with a blank slate, and tilted my head.
‘what?’
It’s a familiar situation.
Is it because of the mood?
“Get down.”
– Sreuk…
When I quietly gave instructions, the guy knelt down and bowed his head.
“What, what are you doing! Hurry up and take care of him!!”
“…….”
The vice-principal, who seemed to be the guy’s superior, gave the order in contemplation, but he was unsteady.
‘It’s the same situation as in spades.’
I could understand it intuitively.
That this situation is very similar to what happened with Spade yesterday.
Apparently I wasn’t hypnotized even then, but I was able to master the spades.
And, for some reason, sadism was springing up.
Looking at it, I don’t think it’s my fault.
‘Maybe, it’s the ability I didn’t know about.’
A person with a ‘concept’ in their body is usually able to freely use the abilities related to that concept.
However, this ability is still the realm of mystery.
There are many cases in which the ‘concept’ of a person who has undergone a major change of heart is suddenly overturned, or he has been mistaken for his ‘concept’.
Of course, it is very common to not fully understand one’s abilities.
‘I’ve already defeated Resurrection once. then…’
Thinking from that perspective, this phenomenon is also my ability.
If so, there was one thing to point out.
Could it be that I can hypnotize people I have defeated indefinitely?
Not sure yet. But if that’s really true, I wouldn’t have known about it until now.
If I wanted to defeat someone, I had to be accompanied by ‘hypnosis’, so it was probably no different.
But if that’s true, does that mean I’ve defeated Spades in the past?
When the hell did I meet him?
“Hey, you.”
I shook my head for a while, but there was no clear answer, so I decided to finish what I had to do first.
“Tell me your true identity.”
“Greek… Grumpy…”
Now was a desperate opportunity to discover the identities of the bizarre monsters. So, when I investigated Resurrection, who was lying face down, he cried for a while and then started to open his mouth.
“We… are blessed by him… the chosen ones…”
Those were the last words he had left.
– Whoops…!
“……!”
The guy who was about to say something’s head exploded with a pop.
“…this.”
After that, the droopy body of the guy did not regenerate again.
“It’s a shame.”
I took a breather quietly, and forced to look away from him and moved forward.
“Hey, hey…!”
Then he sat down and began to tremble.
“Sa, save me…!”
He looked quite pitiful, but according to the data that Dice gave him, he had no pity at all.
Academy fund embezzlement. Encourage fraudulent admission. Five female students were molested under the pretext of additional admission. And the number one contributor to the Justia expulsion case.
Besides, the connection with the Resurrection that was just revealed.
“Ah, my wife and daughter are waiting for me. Please save my life…”
“Hey, when did I say I would kill you?”
Still, I had no intention of killing him.
“Is that so?”
“Absolutely.”
It has been a question since ancient times.
“Well, by the way… what is that thing you’re holding in your hand…?”
Why is the death penalty the highest punishment in court?
In this world where there is no such thing as a god or an afterlife,
The death penalty was such a kind and humane treatment.
“Okay, how can I change common sense?”
last a lifetime,
It was time to become his trauma.
