Ep.147 Terror on a Summer Night.
Global Villain Organization Latis’s Coastal Terror, where all countries bordering the sea have been damaged.
Korea was the only country that suffered no damage, with countless countries still suffering from the damage.
And it has been tentatively concluded that the reason why only South Korea was safe was all because of villain Egostic.
Egostic’s recognition and popularity have risen madly again, as all terrestrial and Internet outlets have beaten this fact to everyone on a wide range. Even people who weren’t interested in villains usually knew about Egostic.
Right now, at a time when there is the highest interest in Egostic.
His broadcast, at last, is on.
***
A dark night.
On the dark city streets of night, where only a few lights from street lamps and buildings glow faintly.
Only the same dark-clad man was floating in the sky, flapping his black cape.
Looking down at the night street with his back turned to the screen for a while, he smiled and finally looked at the screen. He opened his mouth with a big smile.
“It’s been a long time. Hello, everyone. I’m Egostic!”
Looking at him greeting with his arms wide open like that.
The chat window was simply, just a mess.
[Egostic! Egostic! Egostic! Egostic! Egostic! Egostic! Egostic! Egostic! Egostic! Egostic! Egostic! Egostic! Egostic! Egostic!]
[Korea’s one and only S-class hero, Mango Stick hahahahahahahaha]
[Mangkki* yoohoo~! Mangkki yoohoo~! Mangkki yoohoo~! Mangkki yoohoo~! Mangkki yoohoo~! Mangkki yoohoo~!] *TN: Mangkki = Mango + kki. K-netizens often add “kki” to the name of celebrities they adore.
[What took you so long? What took you so long? What took you so long? What took you so long? What took you so long? What took you so long?]
[Kya hahahahaha. I’m done sleeping tonight hahahahaha.]
[Monday night, no regrets, watch Mango Stick live hahahahahaha.]
[Like if you jump right when you saw Egostic’s live notification hahahahahaha]
[Damn, I trusted you, Egostic!!!!!]
Chatting like a flood.
In the enthusiastic response that was so hard to check with the naked eye, Egostic only nodded, his arms still open as if he knew it.
“Yes, yes. Nice to see y’all. Nice to see y’all. Have you all been doing well?”
As he greeted them with a smile, the chat window flared up with more chats. Especially most of them were compliments for Egostic, who single-handedly prevented Latis’ terror.
On the screen, Egostic, who smiled and seemed like he just remembered something, was punching one hand.
“Yes, folks, it’s nice to see you, but hmmm. I’ve been hearing incitement and fabrication about me lately. About me protecting South Korea or something like that.”
As he laughed as if it were nonsense, the chat window heated up.
[Fake and incitement? What incitement and fabrication?]
[What fake? What incitement?]
[It’s all facts though hahahahaha]
[I protected Korea (That’s right)]
[What is incitement and fabrication?]
[Why was Korea the only country safe when the whole world was attacked? Thanks to the underwater diplomacy of the proud K-Villain Egostic! The United States is shocked, and Japan is sobbing at how Korea is a country where even villains try to protect…]
[Fuck. The chat above is making me dizzy hahaha]
[Why can’t you say you did it? Tell us your real heart!!!]
As if he could not see the chat window full of protest, he shrugged and continued.
“Well… It’s nonsense, so no one would have believed it seriously in the first place. It’s a completely groundless rumor. Groundless.”
[Indeed groundless bullshit hahahahahaha]
[You didn’t even tell the reason. It’s hard to say it’s groundless hahaha]
[Breaking news) Egostic says it’s groundless in the latest news but no evidence?]
[You’re saying you made an agreement, but you didn’t stop the attack]
[At this point, the association should hold a forgiveness event and whitewash hero Mango hahahaha]
[Who would believe this? hahahahaha]
[Yes, no matter what you say, the growth rate of Egostic fan cafe is already at its best~]
[Mango sound ON]
“Hmm… Anyway, it’s been a long time.”
After finishing his speech with a dry cough, he shrugged his shoulders again and turned his back to the screen.
Soon the camera got farther and farther away, capturing him standing alone in the dark sky.
Egostic opened his mouth and began to speak as if he were telling a story.
“It’s a beautiful night. The moon is shining beautifully.”
Having said that, he turned his head for a while and grinned, and then continued talking.
“It’s been rumored that the night has been…Korea has been safe. No villain can beat Shadow Walker! I saw a lot of these comments.”
“In that sense, we, Ego Stream, would like to challenge his authority once again.”
“Let me introduce you! This is our new villain, Mist!”
Having said that, he reached out his hand and pointed to one side.
The camera soon turned, and the screen was moved to the side of Ego Stream
What appeared on the screen was a woman.
“……”
Long waist-length purple hair, half-closed eyes, beautiful and mysterious at the same time, the appearance that seems difficult to talk to in real life. And unlike her appearance, it’s a plain black hoodie that looks a little bigger than a simple one.
She was about a little shorter than Egostic, and she was watching a purple flame rising blankly on her little hand.
Soon, she recognized that the camera was recording her, so she turned her head and looked at the screen.
“….?”
Soon after, she was still looking at the screen with a languid expression on her head. Soon, she made a V with her fingers and raised it toward his face.
“Yeah… Is this okay? Well, hello, I’m Mist.”
She smiled slightly, raised her hand up to her chest, and made a small wave.
The chat window stopped for a moment at the dreamy appearance of a beautiful girl with purple hair hanging in the background of the night sky.
Soon, the chat began to explode again with reactions.
[Oh hahahaha What’s up with the atmosphere?Hahaha]
[I thought the villain introduction was a celebrity introduction]
[Ego Stream chose villains based on their looks. Why is everyone either cool, pretty, or cute? Hahaha]
[Starting today, I’m supporting Purple Mango]
[Come to think of it, another girl hahahaha]
[Mango’s gay, he seduced another girl]
[Egostic/Controversy/Involved with women]
[CasaMango fuck hahahahahahahahah]
[Ha Mango Star, Electric Mango, Ice Mango, Moonlight Mango, Hacker Mango, now Purple Mango appears hahahaha. How many are there? Hahahaha]
[Why is no one interested in her purple fireworks? Hahahahaha]
[Is this the first time we have a show at night? It looks so cool]
While the chat was soaring up, the camera turned to Egostic again.
Still smiling, he clapped his hands and spoke up.
“Yes. As soon as I introduce her! It just so happens that he’s coming over there!!”
The camera turned again.
A black man in the shadows was seen from a distance. Hero Shadow Walker was coming.
“I’ll be watching from afar to see if he can beat our Mist. Bye guys!”
At the end of his words, Egostic disappeared.
Even before leaving regrets to the viewers, now Shadow Walker was caught on the screen.
“…Villain, what are you doing here?”
“Well…”
Shadow Walker recited in a low voice.
At his words, the purple-haired girl, Mist, put her finger to her lips for a moment and said as if she were asking for something obvious.
“Terror?”
And at the same time as her words are over.
Flame up-.
In the dark night sky, at the same time a huge purple ring of fire appeared behind her back.
She grinned with her still half-closed eyes and flicked her finger.
Soon purple fireballs sprang up around her, and she began to aim at Shadow Walker.
“…Ha. To fight against this Shadow Walker at night. You have some guts.”
“…well, long story short, uh… Shouldn’t we try to see it?”
Soon, as she answered like a song, she flicked her finger again, and the flames began to flare at Shadow Walker.
Shadow Walker also began to hide in the shadows and try to stop them.
The battle began in earnest.
***
‘…Ugh. This guy doesn’t attack me very well either.’
A dark night
Shadow Walker lamented inwardly as he fought against the villain Mist brought by Egostic.
Ah! How did he end up like this when he defeated everyone at once in the past?
Now, more people will try to beat him.
He, who was frustrated by the nightmare of the HanEun group and Wolgwanggyo again, soon clenched his teeth and came to his senses.
‘…Yes, is this what Egostic means?’
Perhaps Egostic knew Shadow Walker was powerless in front of villains who ignored his ability.
Yeah, so all this terrorism, his stinging advice to grow himself mentally. Don’t drag on, get a grip and fight.
“…Yes. A man must fight back without being swayed in any situation.”
Mumbling quietly so that no one could hear him, he clenched his fist.
Yeah, who is he? Isn’t he Korea’s Shadow Walker?
He can do it.
With that thought, he resolved himself, looking at Egostic, who seemed far away.
Egostic, I’ll never let you down!
“Now, let’s go in earnest.”
“Hmm…?”
Immediately, determined again, he looked at the girl shooting a purple ball of fire at him.
Yeah, I’ll knock her down, and I’ll be recognized by Egostic.
With that determination, Shadow Walker jumped at her once again.
How he overcame frustration and leaped forward.
Even for himself, it was fierce.
***
[Oh! Shadow Walker is doing pretty well against our Mist. Amazing, he’s amazing.]
“Mr. President, Shadow Walker is currently fighting equally with the opponent. I think he can win!”
“No, I think he’s losing.”
“…What?”
“I’ll have to step up anyway.”
“What? Wait a minute, Stardus! Please have a seat.”
At that time, the association staff was sweating to stop the hero from acting unexpectedly.
