I’m Not Your Dad, I’m a Villain

EP.26 EP2. Heroine Contest (1)

‘Who is the best hero?’

It is a topic of debate that cannot be left out in today’s society, and even today, many heroes are competing to become the best in their respective fields.

Neither helplessness nor recognition, nor nobility or beauty…

And what took place at the ball hall in District G, where I was currently located, was the Miss Heroine Contest in which women competed for ‘beauty of women’.

As it is a festival that focuses on appearance and individuality, female heroes who are focused on a sense of justice or fighting spirit are not interested in it.

Conversely, if you are from an agency where recognition is important, it is not an exaggeration to say that participation is half-compulsory.

‘Uncle, please do that outfit.’

Yes, that was the reason why Kana suddenly ran to me a while ago.

‘No, there is a dedicated coordinator, so why do you have me do it again?’

‘That’s right, I’m a magical girl who protects children’s dreams and hopes. If I’m faithful to my personality, of course, wouldn’t it be better to entrust it to someone who knows how to understand a girl’s heart?’

‘Certainly I am the father of a daughter, but…’

‘I’ll allow you to touch me here and there only when I’m coordinating. Whatever it is, it’s okay to touch my breasts!’

‘… … hey.’

‘ah! No chastity! It’s a source of magic, so it’s hard until retirement!’

‘You, no matter how open-minded you are, you know that flirting with any guy isn’t so good looking, right?’

How much less is she an idol loved by many people?

No matter how close an employee such a person may be, it would be disrespectful to the fan to say that it is okay to touch my body.

I hope you will respectfully say such a thing, even because of your professionalism.

‘I don’t do this to anyone.’

‘What?’

‘I’m doing this because I’m an uncle.’

‘…….’

… … shit.

Why don’t you know that it’s more of a problem?

Of course, I understand where the excessive favor she has for me came from, but continuing to pursue it will not be good for me or her.

The manager’s contract is the last day.

In the future, we will be destined to become enemies again.

“Oh, aren’t you the manager?”

As I was pondering such bitterness, some people who enjoyed the banquet started to know me.

Industry workers I knew while helping with broadcasting, and employees or their representatives belonging to other agencies.

Temporary contractors aren’t the kind of people I would face, but their feelings towards me were close to favor.

“Hey, the manager is here too.”

“It’s only natural that he’s the manager of Spiritas.”

“Haha, today is the last day. After watching this banquet, the contract will expire… … .”

“Oh, it’s great that you’ve made it this far. Using this achievement, we could consider hiring a full-time employee rather than a temporary employee. Do you have any plans to appeal?”

“On our side, we highly value the manager’s resourcefulness. I would like to have known each other for as long as possible, but… … .”

Hey, I don’t know what to do with industry leaders giving such high ratings.

Of course, he earned twice as much as he would earn in a year just by working for a month or two.

As the pay is high, I also feel harsh, but unfortunately, since the opponent is the opponent, I thought that this part should be approached seriously.

The high level of attention means that there is a risk that you will soon notice something suspicious.

He had a rough idea of ​​what kind of character Spiritas was. As further observations are considered meaningless, subsequent infiltration may do more harm than good.

“I’m sorry, but I… … .”

It’s been a while since I tried to explain that point.

As I turned around, avoiding my gaze, my gaze was focused on one place.

A person walking through the crowd.

A woman of the same age as me, with long white hair that stands out even between a black tailcoat and a colorful dress.

“… … uh?”

I couldn’t take my eyes off her.

what, why?

Why is that guy here?

“Why?”

“Wait a minute, excuse me.”

He turned his back on the people who showed his favor and ran to the woman who had just disappeared into the crowd.

it’s not wrong

White hair and blue eyes. Cold eyes that overwhelm those who meet him.

If you look at the color arrangement, it is close to the figure of North Asian descent before the cataclysm, but the face shape is East Asian like Kana.

There is no way to go wrong with such a unique appearance, right?

“new year… … .”

Sulwharan.

I tried to shout that name out loud, but later realized where I was and kept my mouth shut.

Yes, this is the realm of heroes. As a villain, I shouldn’t call that name openly.

Moreover, because his opponent was none other than Ouroboros’s executive.

“…that guy, why are you here?”

Yeah, since the news of his death hasn’t been officially reported, he’s probably still alive.

What I’m worried about is why he’s not wearing a mask and stalking the hero’s realm with his bare face.

Are you sneaky like me? If it’s undercover, for what reason?

No, no matter what, the ex-executor came here.

“this… … . Something might happen here.”

It was enough to have an ominous premonition.

***

Suzuki Kana.

She, who uses the name Spiritas in public, was currently spending time in the banquet hall waiting for the contest to be held.

But even she, who never loses her innocence, couldn’t contain her tension now.

‘Oh, I guess I stepped on a landmine.’

Yes, the problem is that what she is wearing is cute enough for a child to wear, unlike the glamorous and elegant dresses around her.

A pink dress with a lot of ruffles. Except for being a little richer, it’s not much different from the costume I usually wear.

Of course, it is said that it symbolizes itself, but isn’t this a banquet hall for business people who should live with solemnity and dignity?

‘No, let’s think about it the other way around. The cuteness in the glamor is surprisingly a gap moe, right?’

Perhaps this kind of outfit may unexpectedly receive high ratings in the contest.

So, until the results come out, don’t worry about your surroundings and push yourself forward. It’s been a while since I made up my mind on my own.

“Oh my gosh, who is this? Isn’t that Mr. Spiritas?”

A woman approaching with a clenched fist pretending to know Spiritas.

The main character of the voice with a hint of arrogance was clearly present in Spiritas’ memory.

“Oh, it’s been a while, Ping-ping, how have you been?”

“Don’t call me ping-ping!”

A wavy Western woman in an alluring dress. Although she was more glamorous than those around her, her graceful appearance made her look like an aristocrat.

However, what was drawn in the two eyes staring at him could not be regarded as a favor.

“Anyway, your personality hasn’t changed since then. It is said that a position makes a person, but even after a year has passed since I took the position, it is still the same… … .”

Just like the last time we met, a woman who nags at herself.

But Spiritas did not displease it or not. He simply pointed out the parts that were at odds with what he knew.

“Aren’t you going to wear that jjokjjil today?”

“It’s not a jjojol, it’s a supersuit! It is a proud uniform of Super Rangers that has been handed down from generation to generation!”

Super Ranger Pink, who shouts while taking a picture of her usual small dishes.

Spiritas’ thoughtless words would be called a revolt to her.

Although it may seem funny to some, that suit is something that comes to her with pride after becoming a full-fledged hero.

“It’s just that this isn’t a stage or a scene, so I just took it off for a while. Because, unlike you, I have enough brains to dress appropriately for the environment.”

“Oh yeah?”

“by the way……”

Ranger Pink glances up and down at Spiritas, who is making a fat expression.

No matter how much she is a hero based on a girl’s character, it was an outfit that I thought was not suitable for wearing at a scene like this.

“Are you going to enter the contest like that?”

Normally I would have laughed at it, but I also feel worried about things that are beyond common sense.

Still, Spiritas just shrugged insignificantly.

“What can’t you do? There are no rules for dress code, both you and I have the same qualifications…”

It’s a bit unlucky, but first of all, aren’t you in the same industry?

As long as the opponent does not come out too hostile, Spiritas also had a willingness to play fair play with her for this contest.

As the same hero and as a rival with the same goal.

“… There seems to be some misunderstanding about this.”

However, Pink was skeptical of Spiritas’ words.

Spiritas looked back at her with suspicion.

“I misunderstood, what do you mean?”

“Yeah, I just came here as a guest, and decided not to participate in the contest.”

“What? Ping-ping, you’re not attending this kind of event? Are you still interested in social media all day long?”

“Don’t call me ping-ping! And it’s strictly a publicity and fan service activity, not because I’m hungry!”

Fierce Pink let out a small sigh and turned her gaze to one side.

“I am also a person who is very proud of myself, but coincidentally, today’s contest also serves as the retirement ceremony of ‘Familiar Familiar’. Oh, you don’t know, do you?”

“Oh, well, I’ve heard of the name.”

I just never met him in person.

Afterwards, when Pink moved her gaze to the place she was facing, an elderly woman talking to people from afar caught her eye.

A person with very impressive tear spots under the eyes.

The faint wrinkles around her lips and forehead taught her the years she had spent, but nevertheless, she felt a noble aura that was difficult to approach.

Farm Fatal Familia.

She is a living legend in the current entertainment industry and the oldest female hero in existence, an A-class hero.

“The Age

There are, but as the name of a hero, she has all the fatal charms that a woman should have. I am also proud of myself

Even though it’s my body, I can’t help but die in front of that person, so I decided not to participate in this contest.”

“…….”

“Oh my goodness? Mr. Spiritas. Were you nervous about the fact that Pampa Tal Familiar is participating in the contest? Haha, if it’s that person’s charm, you’ll be able to recognize my fountain just by looking at it.”

No, it’s not just about being attractive.

Would the criminal say that he felt an aura that he couldn’t even touch?

Yes, it is difficult to approach, but I still feel the desire to approach… … . A person who induces what is often referred to as ‘longing’.

‘Is that person also participated in the great war with him?’

It is only for a moment that such awareness harmonizes with the admiration of a hero and a star, creating a mysterious feeling.

– We will inform everyone who participated in the banquet. The contest is going to be open soon… … .

“Hey, it’s time. Then I will go to the audience.”

Please don’t show any shame.

After Ranger Pink left after giving the advice, Spiritas followed the broadcast and prepared to head to the waiting room.

At that moment, the waiter, who was carrying alcohol nearby, approached.

“Ah, are you Hero Spiritas-san?”

“Ah yes. I’m Spiritas, but… … .”

“The association’s executive has called. Could you please come over here for a moment?”

“… Executives?”

An executive is a person who oversees the heroes.

Although he may not be the best hero, there is a high possibility that he will visit this place, which is full of well-known female heroes.

But in the yard ahead of the contest, only you pick yourself up and call.

‘No, if it’s an executive’s call, something serious might happen.’

It may take some time, but it is enough to change the waiting order anyway, so let’s take some time. And I followed the staff for a while.

“Hey, this is a warehouse… … .”

The place we arrived at was a dark warehouse area.

As soon as I entered the sparsely populated place, the door slammed shut, and the man who was advancing ahead took out what was in his arms and aimed it at the Spiritas.

Mechanism of a black color bent with a lifter.

– Taang!

A flash of light erupted from it, and it struck the eyes of Spiritas precisely.

However, even if the body is tilted by the impact, it does not fall.

The result expected to some extent as the opponent is the opponent.

If the surprise is unsuccessful, the next step is to push the numbers.

“… … her.”

As the shadows were gradually revealed from all over the warehouse, she straightened her tilted body and turned her bullet-studded eyes around.

“Isn’t what’s happening today a festival?”

The shriveled bullets fell with the twitching of his eyes.

“Why are there so many people asking for a funeral?”

The aura created by the concentration of superhuman power in his grasp began to soar.
