Paaat!
The golden dinsional gate closed.
The two S-class villains, Goblin and Yaions, disappeared without a trace inside.
“W-what…!”
“Where did you send our leader?”
[Who knows.]
The Mushi Rangers erupted in anger at the actions of Platinum Sun, who had closed the dinsional gate. However, Platinum Sun nonchalantly pointed at the empty space where the gate had vanished.
[It’s sowhere on Earth, I suppose.]
“You bastard…!”
“How dare you send our leader…!”
Paaat!
The Mushi Rangers charged at Platinum Sun all at once, but Platinum Sun easily dodged their attacks, creating distance between them.
[If you want to find them, go ahead. I still need to finish getting rid of the evil spirits in Jeju Island.]
“What…?”
[You’re looking for sothing, right? I know where it is.]
Everyone’s attention was now on Platinum Sun.
“You know where Seon Ga-eul’s remains are?”
[Yes, I found them. I was going to destroy them, but as soon as I found out you were coming, I ca straight here.]
“If you know where the remains are, tell us! Now!”
Baridegi stepped forward, approaching Platinum Sun.
“You’re not like Goblin, are you?”
[I’m not. I don’t want to beco a villain.]
Surprisingly, Platinum Sun didn’t avoid Baridegi’s approach.
Baridegi ca so close, almost within one ter, close enough that if she stretched out her hands and feet, she could grab Platinum Sun’s wrist. But even then, Platinum Sun didn’t move from her spot.
[But I’m not sure about you either. Just like I don’t trust those Mushi Rangers trying to steal the remains, I’m not confident about what the Hero Association would do if they got their hands on them.]
“Of course we would-”
[The Goblin said he would destroy the remains.]
“!!!”
Baridegi’s hand stopped for a mont.
She now had an idea why this woman was temporarily aligned with Goblin.
“Do you plan to destroy Seon Ga-eul’s remains?”
[Of course. I believe they shouldn’t exist.]
“Why?”
[If soone were to use that ability and hypnotize soone to ‘beco a demon,’ there’s a chance they would.]
“A hypnosis that turns people into demons… No one would do such a thing…!”
[Are you absolutely sure?]
At Platinum Sun’s words, Baridegi bit her lower lip.
It was hard for her to say with certainty that such a thing would never happen, based on what she had seen and heard.
[There are abilities in this world that are helpful, and others that are more dangerous. I think hypnotic abilities fall into the latter category. So, I can’t just sit back and let that be.] Р
“Platinum Sun. I have just one question.”
The Thunder Emperor stepped up beside Baridegi, standing protectively next to her, and confronted Platinum Sun.
“Are you on the sa side as Goblin?”
[For now, yes. At least when it cos to destroying Seon Ga-eul’s remains.]
“…I see.”
Crackle.
“If you’re on Goblin’s side, that makes you an enemy of the Association, at least for now.”
[…]
“But our current mission is to stabilize Jeju Island. My top priority as Thunder Emperor Kim Yoon-ji is to restore peace to Jeju Island, not chasing after you.”
“Sister Yoon-ji!”
“Irin.”
The Thunder Emperor placed a hand on Baridegi’s shoulder and pointed toward the sea. Baridegi closed her eyes for a mont, then opened them, turning her gaze to the remaining four Mushi Rangers.
“…I will arrest the villains who illegally entered Jeju Island.”
“What about that woman?! She’s just as much of a-”
Whoosh.
Suddenly, a dinsional gate opened in the air, and Platinum Sun slipped through it.
“Chase-”
The gate closed before they could chase her.
“Wow. Her speed is incredible, even I couldn’t follow her. As expected, Platinum Sun is amazing.”
The Thunder Emperor scratched her head, feeling a bit awkward as she pulled her hand back from the now-closed gate.
“Ah, headquarters. This is Thunder Emperor. We’ve lost Goblin and Platinum Sun. But I’ll arrest the remaining Mushi Rangers imdiately.”
“You, you scum…! Acting so obvious…”
“You’re the ones who acted obvious. You secretly landed on Jeju Island, hiding from the navy by controlling an innocent whale.”
Crackle.
The Thunder Emperor gathered electricity around her body once again as she stood in front of them.
“Protect Jeju Island. That is our duty as heroes.”
Boom!
“You damn villains.”
From the sky, blue lightning fell.
Sotis, when I provoked an opponent to shake their ntality, I wondered.
‘What if this turns them into a demon?’
Shaking soone’s ntal state ant increasing their chances of becoming a demon.
Even those with strong ntal fortitude could beco demons if their most sensitive nerve was hit.
That was how it was for Yaions too.
“I’ll definitely kill you!!”
[If you kill , you won’t get the answers you want.]
“I’ll make you talk first, then kill you!!”
Every ti Yaions swung his killing sword at , his murderous intent brushed against my skin.
The blade’s wind scraped my entire body, cutting my robe with every pass.
“I’ll definitely kill the one who killed my noona!”
His rage fueled his murderous intent.
His fury amplified his magic power, and the clear intent to kill beca his most powerful weapon.
Clang!
Engaging him directly wasn’t favorable.
Even though our weapon skills were evenly matched, each clash sent sparks flying, and the blade wind attacked my entire body.
“Kama Itachi!”
Once again, Yaions slamd his sword into the ground.
At the sa ti, he slashed upward, and three sharp waves shot out from his blade.
[Too bad.]
I struck the ground with my goblin bat, summoning my magic.
A massive concrete pillar rose before , and the slash waves vanished as they collided with the pillar.
“What the…! Are you controlling concrete?!”
[It’s just an ability.]
I rely created a shield in the form of a pillar using my magic.
Whether it was because it was dark or because the form was too realistic, Yaions didn’t realize the pillar was just a magical creation.
With just the Goblin Bat, I created a massive pillar that rose from the ground.
[Do you not know that the woman you cherish so much has been seducing other n?]
“Shut up!”
[If you didn’t know, now you do. And if you knew, rember it again. The woman who whispered love into your ear and suggested crossing over to Japan was nothing more than a queen bee, a fem fatale.]
“!!”
Yaions’s eyes filled with bloodshot rage.
“That, that can’t be…!”
[But you know, don’t you? One of the people who went to Japan with you had also traveled with Seon Ga-eul to Jeju Island.]
“S-shut up!”
[Seon Ga-eul even went to Ulleungdo with another man, though she told you she was going on a trip to Seoul with friends.]
“Stop it! Don’t insult her!”
[It’s not an insult; it’s reality. Even if you charge with defamation, it would still be factual defamation.]
In denial of the truth, Yaions shook his head furiously and aid his blade at .
“She’s not so tramp!!”
[No, she is. That woman even tried to hypnotize and manipulate with her body. That’s why I killed her.]
“N-no! Shut up! That can’t be true!”
[Do you really believe that? Do you think she was pure?]
He was wavering.
And that wavering revealed Yaions’s true feelings.
[You know it. You weren’t her first.]
Because he knew.
Because deep down, he believed that what I was saying wastrue.’
[She wasn’t just experienced with n; she was still seeing other n even while she was with you, not just ability users, but older n too.]
“Ugh, argh…!!”
That man, he was not turning into a demon right now.
Despite shaking his ntal state this much, there was no sign of demonization, which ant he was aware of what I was saying.
[I simply took care of a villain who was using her body to disrupt world peace by seducing n.]
Because he knew that what I was saying was the truth.
[Let’s end this soon.]
And then.
[Also, if you’re going to use that na and title, don’t use such techniques.]
Whoosh.
The wind blew.
In an instant, Yaions staggered, his gaze shifting to the ground.
“What…?!”
[You’re stepping on remains.]
“!!”
Yaions’s eyes trembled.
In the middle of the rooftop, the ground had cracked slightly due to the battle, revealing an old piece of cloth between the broken concrete.
That clothing was undeniably familiar to Yaions, sothing Seon Ga-eul had worn when she was alive.
[You stepped on a grave.]
“You…!”
His eyes, his magical power, trembled with fury and confusion.
The trust Yaions had in Seon Ga-eul, who had guided him until now, wavered as he learned about her past actions. That unease and wavering shook the magical power that strengthened his body.
[On the grave of the fem fatale who tried to use you.]
And using that wavering, I broke the will of the brainwashed man before .
[Let finish this, to clear your mind.]
Whoosh.
As soon as I gave the signal, a gust of wind roared from the grave.
“!!”
Caught off guard by the sudden tornado, Yaions stumbled backward, trying to escape.
And from the ground beneath Yaions, a glowing green magical power circled out like a magic array.
“What…?!”
[Cyclone.]
Whoosh!
The green wind swirled up from below, launching Yaions high into the sky.
[Now, let show you true science.]
Gripping my Goblin Bat tightly, I leaped forward.
[Rember this, you who were bitten by a fem fatale.]
The green wind beneath my feet served as a springboard, propelling forward.
[Your na deserves a matching fighting style.]
Whoosh.
Guided by the wind, I arrived.
“Damn you!”
Slash.
Even as Yaions was hurled into the air by the cyclone, ntally shaken, he still swung his sword at with a single-minded intent to defeat .
“I got him—!”
[Too bad.]
I had arrived.
The one that Yaions slashed wasn’t the real , but a clone. The real had already arrived.
[There is no victory for soone who wanted to be the protagonist of a fem fatale’s story.]
As Yaions raised his sword, still staring in the direction where he thought I was running from, I stood behind him.
[Look at this, this is true science.]
Yaions was now floating in midair.
At so point, the Goblin Bat in my hand had transford into a sword.
“You
I unleashed three consecutive strikes.
[Final Breath.]
With three swift slashes, I cut Yaions down.
[This is the class of a master.]
