chapter 28
28 – Since he left, we’ve been doomed 2
The Villain Alliance, a huge community with many villains.
However, this huge organization had to be very difficult to deal with compared to general organizations as its members were made up of villains.
Existences who ignoring laws and regulations neatly, pursuing the life they want and going wild.
Since the alliance of villains was made up of such guys, the instability of this organization was more serious than it seemed.
In fact, even at this moment, not only the public enemy of the Villains, Heero, but also the Villains belonging to the same Villain Alliance were fighting a battle if they were bored.
It’s not just an individual fist fight,
A war between villains reminiscent of past struggles between mafiosi in which relatively like-minded people form a huge organization to attack the opposing forces.
In this way, within the single fence of the Villain Alliance, conflicts large and small were taking place even at this moment, and in fact, it was positioned as a danger like a time bomb that could explode at any time.
And…
Now the safety device holding the second hand of the time bomb is gone.
Villains with thoughts had no choice but to recognize them instinctively.
About the great storm that will surely come sooner or later…

“…. Are you listening?”
“Gulp! Gulp! Kyaa..! Of course, I am listening very intently. So roughly, sooner or later, our villains may have a big fight. You mean that?”
Despite trying to explain the circumstances at best, Hera maintains a bad attitude.
Anyway, at times like this, I wanted to show a little more serious side, but it seemed like it was unreasonable to expect such a thing from this younger sister.
“Well… If you put it simply, it is..”
Poseidon gulped down his goblet, feeling his stomach burn again, having decided to give up such a neat detail.
And… Looking at him like that, Hera grabbed the bottle of wine left over from her older brother and slowly waved it.
“Hmm.. But it’s unexpected. I knew he was quite capable, but was my sweetheart really that great?”
“… Did you really like him without knowing anything?”
“Of course you know! His face is just that, but he’s a very kind and tolerant person! He is the only man who can accept me and not be broken!”
Hera speaks with a scary feeling in many ways.
Looking at her like this, Poseidon spoke with sincerity, skipping over the details for now.
“Yes.. As you said, his generosity is amazing, but as soon as he took office as my policy officer, the fights between the organizations that had existed before that were drastically reduced. There were a couple of times when it was even quite dangerous, but I managed to get through it without a hitch.”
“Heh….”
“Heh.. It’s not. This is a really serious problem.”
As soon as a serious story comes out, Hera replies with a blank expression as if she is listening to the Buddhist scriptures across the river again.
At this, Poseidon continued to speak in a vehement tone, feeling a slight rise in his veins.
“At least recently, the atmosphere between organizations has been unusual. In the midst of this, when news of Gaia-sama was cut off, it was because he was there that there was no noise! However! That last safety pin guy! He’s completely gone! It’s not even a hero who can turn complaints, it’s the same Villain Union’s internal disposition!”
In a situation where the top leader’s whereabouts were unknown, the person who was recognized by many people and appropriately comforted them disappeared.
It wasn’t because they did anything particularly wrong, but the result of the purge, which was almost forcibly brought down through simple cavils, was no different than setting fire to this situation, which was already showing signs of unrest.
Rather, if Namgoong-jin was suddenly killed in a raid by heroes, it would rather be able to arouse the atmosphere within the union through this.
Under the pretext of revenge against those brutal heroes who killed a competent corps commander.
However, although Namgung-jin’s death is presumed to have been at the hands of the heroes, he had already been purged and imprisoned by the elders of the Villain Alliance.
In other words, there was no room for an excuse for the Villain Union in relation to his death, and it was clear that this would inevitably accelerate the time of the catastrophe that was inevitable.
But…
“….Swimming… “
“…..”
Hera literally puts on an expression of ignorance in response to Poseidon’s passionate speech about the seriousness of the situation.
Seeing her like this, Poseidon stopped explaining further and continued speaking in a limp voice.
“Haa.. Anyway, just know that a big accident will happen sooner or later, whether you understand it or not, since the people who can get along with each organization have disappeared, if one person presses the wrong button once, it will literally go wild. I will fly.”
As if he had no energy to explain, Poseidon poured the almost empty wine glass into his mouth.
And,
Looking at him like that, Hera asked him in a tone that still felt light.
“Huh… Then, older brother, how far can you go about making a mess?”
“… What?”
“You say something big is going to happen, and if that happens, you can say that you just need to delete a few corps commander positions, right? Should I just blow out 9 out of the remaining 14?”
“…. You..”
Hera begins to tell really scary stories in a thoughtless tone.
Regarding this, Poseidon finally recognized the fact that he was thinking wrong and began to put seriousness on his face again.
‘I overlooked it for a moment… Come to think of it, this guy is the one who will be most upset about his death.’
Hera was forced to give up even her brother halfway.
And… Namgung-jin, who was virtually the only being able to control Hera.
Poseidon belatedly began to recognize that now that the man had disappeared, Hera would have nothing to say even if she let go of reason and ran amok.
And…
Toward him… Hera said with a terrifying smile on her lips.
“Are you sure you are smart? A safety pin. Yeah, I think that makes sense. To me, that guy was really like a safety pin, but now that safety pin is gone? If this happens, I can’t help it either. But looking at that man’s face, I tried to live a little bit as a good kid… but now there’s no reason to do that.”
“… Hera..”
For a moment, the younger brother’s face shows a sincere feeling of sadness.
At this, Poseidon looked at her with her hardened expression.
How long had it been since his brother had shown direct emotion in this way?
I’ve never shown the emotion of sadness so clearly that I thought I wouldn’t be able to contain in my life..
She has never been with her since she became a member of this villainous coalition.
The problem is that these feelings of sadness mean,
The fact that he is showing the fact that his younger brother has pressed the switch to the splendid destruction he has been concerned about all along.
So, feeling ironic at the fact that she hadn’t shown her true feelings for the first time in a while and could never be delighted with her brother’s appearance, Poseidon asked her with a different feeling than before.
“You mean… You really intend to do it?”
“Huh, of course… Is that why I came to see you today in the first place? Who else can I rely on in a situation like this, besides my blood-shared family?”
“….”
In fact, Hera is recommending that we open the gates of hell together with her.
Poseidon couldn’t help but hesitate for a moment about her words, but the time to think about it didn’t take that long.
Of course, there was loyalty to his younger brother, but at the same time, he also came to a conclusion while looking at his younger brother.
‘That’s right.. Hell will surely open in a little while anyway.
He couldn’t stop the rolling cart anyway.
In that case, it would be better to be the first to get on the wave.
Having concluded that, Poseidon said in a quiet voice, looking at his younger brother who was shining with madness in front of his eyes.
“..I got it.”
