I’m Not Your Dad, I’m a Villain

EP.98 EP4. Will Of fortune(2)

“Cuckoo!!”

Unbreakable Vanguard.

As the name suggests, his body, boasting of great strength, was collapsing at the hammer I wielded at this moment.

To an absurd power that even I didn’t expect.

– It’s sticky.

But it wasn’t just his body that couldn’t stand it.

The handle of the sledgehammer that digs into your hand.

That wasn’t enough, my arm was also broken in reverse, a shard of sharp bone pierced my elbow and bled.

“…ha, what the hell is this again?”

I’m used to the pain, so I don’t care.

I was surprised because I had never experienced anything like this before.

It was something I had never experienced before to have my arm broken because I couldn’t withstand the superhuman force overflowing from my body.

– Dumpling.

But the surprise didn’t end there.

Even with a broken arm, the bone of the arm that moves at will at the moment it was about to move forward. My arm is regenerating rapidly, at a noticeable rate, even though I didn’t mean to.

It was as if something that had never happened before.

Not only the arm, but also the ‘hammer’ that had been broken in the previous blow.

“I know roughly how to write it.”

In short, if I wish, not only my body, but also the tools I hold in my hands will be regenerated.

“… Cool.”

The sound of coughing as I turned around to look back at my normal body.

The blood flowing through the shattered mask taught him that he had suffered considerable damage from the previous shock.

“Hey, what are you doing… … .”

“Well, I don’t know either.”

Quietly responding to Vanguard’s words, he carried the hammer on his shoulder.

He withstands the pressure he feels with his superhuman strength.

Realizing that that power is the power gained by giving up a lot of things.

“I’m still not sure if I can get strength like this.”

Yes, I have made an irreversible choice.

Originally, it has the power to twist even the set future, but isn’t a future without certainty very scary for humans?

“Still, I’ve been rolling on this floor for half of my life, wouldn’t it be okay to receive such a reward?”

But that’s what I’ve always been prepared for.

Putting aside worrying about what the future holds, and just being terribly confronted with it.

– Koo!

Therefore, I did not feel any hesitation in making the choice to rush right away.

I just hit the power that spreads from within my body as much as I can.

– Aww!

The blow with all its might held up on the spot and pushed Vanguard’s body, but the recoil was transmitted to my body as well.

Bones are broken and muscles are torn.

Even the hammer in his hand was broken, and fragments were scattered everywhere.

– Puff!

A fist aimed at that moment slammed the enveloped head.

I could clearly feel the bones being shattered and the brain being crushed by the intense punches.

But that too is only for a moment.

– Crazy, all of a sudden!

A black thread leaking from the body.

It stitched together the separated bodies, and consciousness was instantly revived, prompting the next action.

The moment when the broken arm is regenerated, and the weight in that hand also comes back.

– Aww!!

A Vanguard that falls out with a hammer loaded with a massive superhuman force.

He broke his arm again, but he moved on nonetheless.

By the time I close the distance with him, I already know that it will return to its original state.

“Now I feel like fighting!”

Yes, this is the power I gained from losing the fate that was set by my hands.

I am not bound by the Wheel of Fortune like the wheel of a cart.

Will of Fortune is driven by my will.

It is impossible to manipulate reality like a boss, or to foresee the future and avoid the dangers that may come ahead.

Nevertheless, if you show your will, you can attach a broken leg, restore even a broken weapon, and continue to drive the enemy.

It’s not a grand power enough to call it power, but at least.

As long as my will is not broken, so that I will not give up halfway.

– Paz!

But I wasn’t the only one who came through the ordeal and gained strength.

– Aww!!

Intense red sparks.

Immediately after that, my body was disintegrated and I was thrown out of my seat with a smashed fist.

It was powerful enough to pierce a hole in its stomach, even though it was able to protect its body by attracting superhuman forces as much as possible.

If it had been before gaining power, this alone would have made it impossible to recover.

– Dumpling!

But for now, as long as I can bear the pain, that’s enough.

If you wish to be healed, your stomach will recover, and if you do not release the weapon from your hand, it will return you to the time you held the weapon.

Its speed is at a level that cannot be compared to before the awakening of the ability. It’s a much better condition than when I couldn’t even move my body properly.

“… … That one seems to have entered Sado with great difficulty.”

Grasping the wound that healed so quickly, I quietly faced him.

The whole body is full. As if all over my body, blood is still flowing from my scratch.

A body that is just hard will come deadly from the moment the defense is breached.

But that’s why his ‘death’ can become even stronger.

If only I could demonstrate the desperate will to not yield to the enemy’s attacks.

“Shut up.”

And he was still standing up.

As if he has not given up yet, as if he firmly believes that he is right.

“I am different from you. For the sake of justice… … !!”

“Anyway, you will.”

It was pitiful, but not considered funny.

If it was me who should be criticized here, it would be me.

“…I’ll give you some sympathy. That miserable little boy who even sold his conscience for his own sake.”

A person who has entered an affair for justice and a pure villain.

Even a child will know which one is worse.

“Why?”

Still, is there something that hasn’t been done?

“Why… are you even doing that?”

He, who gave strength to his neck as if to suppress the pain, asked me with a crawling voice.

About why I am oriented towards evil.

“… … Would you like to come here and try some storytelling?”

“Being sincere in saving the child! Why are you surrounded by that woman!!!”

It’s not like provocations or careless consideration.

Seriously, because I am dissatisfied that I am standing here.

“Thousands of people have died because of that woman. Tens of thousands of people were injured and hundreds of thousands of people lost their homes!!”

Was it just a lie what he saw at the first meeting?

not yet.

“Heroes… … .”

Because I have in mind the slightest possibility that I came here for a reason other than a villain.

“Many heroes died because of what that woman did. People who have nothing to do with it, only because of that woman!!!!”

But it’s good to know what he thinks of me.

“You know that word applies to you too, right?”

He’s just less trash than me, but he was also called a villain in context.

A gift is one given per person. In other words, a multi-gift is basically a concept that can only be established by stealing someone’s gift.

even that ability

In order to strike a balance between the two, one alone will not be enough. Just as a finished work called Sulwharan came out after decades of experimentation,

He must have sacrificed many people to get the strength he is today.

It could be a criminal, or it could be a hero who died on the battlefield. Or, it could be an applicant who is receiving a multi-gift procedure just like yourself.

“Shut up and answer any questions I ask!!”

Vanguard evading answers to such a theory and shouting at me.

But what was seen through the broken lens was more of a sense of betrayal towards me than the anger at the provocation.

“On the subject of being a villain… … .”

Even if it’s only one meeting.

What did he feel in me?

“Until that point, why are you so desperately trying to protect that woman!!”

What the hell was that meeting?

Why is that person clinging to me like that?

“…the reason is.”

But in the end, it’s just someone else’s case.

Unfortunately, I was not in a position to have a peaceful conversation with him.

As much as my enemy, I had to reject and cut off his heart, even intentionally.

“Do you think I need a reason for doing this?”

“… … What?”

“It was a crying child.”

If you still want an explanation, please do.

Even in order to alleviate any regrets that may be left in this fight.

“That guy is the result of not reaching out to the crying child.”

“…….”

“… Why do you think it doesn’t matter what you do because you’re such a widespread orphan?”

It’s okay to commit an affair where no one else can see.

Was justice such a convenient tool or such a narrow concept?

If so, then the justice they believe in would be of worse quality than their fanatical beliefs.

Still, they see the eyes of the god who watches over them, and they care about my conduct even in places that no one sees.

“The resentment of the child you ignored continues to echo in your head every moment of your life.”

And I am a human living in an era led by such people.

That’s why I always thought of it when I closed my eyes.

‘Ahhhh!’

Beings who can only cry out when in danger and have no choice but to seek sympathy from them or wait for help from others.

He was also imaginary, not directly heard, but among the villains I have seen, there must have been many such guys.

“On a subject like that, you guys turn away from crying like that, and you’re in your own way. Today’s society is absolutely perfect.”

Of course, no matter what the circumstances, I have no sympathy for those called villains.

Whatever the reason, they are garbage.

What they have done cannot be justified or understood by anything. What a villain really needs to have is not justification, but firm determination for judgment that can come at any time.

“… … I have nausea. When you see something like that.”

Even more disgusting than the idiots who forgot that fact was the damn society that nurtured them.

To protect the whole, not just one.

A situation that forces small sacrifices for the sake of sustaining society.

“If you guys are really doing justice, you should know what they’ve been ignoring before blaming them.”

“that… … .”

“You guys!!!”

– Koo!

I don’t think that my thinking is wrong.

With that thought, the young hammer hit the ground, and once again caused a shiver in the space.

“… If you really stick to justice.”

I used it as a support, looked at the person in front of me and said,

“You always had to be on the lookout for being born in a place you turned away from.”

birth of evil.

There is no reason there.

Justice is the result of excluding what can be afforded, so unless everyone is saved, evil can appear at any time.

“It’s a natural thing to do, but even if it wasn’t for me, do I have to say that it wouldn’t be strange for anyone to be here?”

Therefore, those who seek justice must never sympathize with evil.

Unless the root cause of evil is not erased.

Unless we need to fix the system of society with the wrong foundation from the beginning.

“… … legitimacy.”

Do my words not make sense to you?

“Do you have no intention of claiming legitimacy?”

No, you will understand.

Because he is also called evil.

You’ll understand better than anyone what I’m talking about.

“Just, so… … . Is it enough to define yourself as evil?”

Nevertheless, it is also for the sake of justice.

He, who controls himself with such comfort, asked me one last time.

for real.

Can you afford a future where no one understands you and you might die miserably?

“Mercy or forgiveness should only be sought in court.”

So he answered

I have already made up my mind

“This is a battlefield. If there’s something you don’t like on the battlefield, isn’t it enough to just destroy it?”

“… … Gingerbread.”

Of the guy who calls my name like that.

Even the body that had been trembling in pain subsided, and then the clenched fist was aimed at me.

“You’re also a damn villain.”

A rush of adrenaline from anger.

From then on, the pain is forgotten, and the hesitation seen through the broken lens is gradually swallowed up by murder.

“…it’s too late to notice. You damn hero.”

The words that followed at the end were very welcome to me.

damn villain. Hearing those words from the hero’s mouth felt like a dream to me, who had been rolling from the bottom all the time.

“Yeah, we know each other’s assholes, but we don’t think we’re going the wrong way.”

And after hearing those words, I finally realized that I had set foot on the battlefield I had longed for for the first time.

And I felt it again.

What we’ve been doing all along is the fight between a big line and a small line.

It’s not even a fight between an unreasonable good and a dignified evil.

“So, just one thing, let’s decide on this one before we stick together.”

The enemy of the villain is the villain.

It has always been a battle between evil and evil to rule the world.

“here… … .”

Realizing that, I quietly solidified my resolve as I gripped the hammer.

including the followers of justice before me.

I am determined to face this one body with what I will call all the evils that exist in this world.

“The one who wins here has the right to debate justice.”

The beginning of all these stories.

Recalling that it came from a leaflet I saw on the street a long time ago.
