“One of the powers of action is daunting.”
Watching the articles and videos being deleted in real time, I admired the Hero Association, or the power of action by the public authorities.
It hasn’t been 24 hours since I filmed and sprayed the scene of destroying the Kane organization, but the press has already entered control.
It was indeed a quick action.
“It doesn’t matter, though.”
Even if you control the media, everyone who will see it has already seen it. That alone is enough for me to benefit from.
Originally, I was going to send this video only to the villains in my area.
A warning that if you play the wrong way against me, you will end up in the same way as Kane.
Known externally as a Class A Villain, I single-handedly wiped out the same Class A Villain, Kane, as well as his Villain subordinates and gang.
People who have seen the video will know.
That I am an S-class villain, not an A-class villain.
Then the villains have two choices.
Resistance and surrender.
Villains who follow the logic of power like beasts will not try to resist me. How do you deal with an S-class villain?
Maybe the villains will come under me on their own.
However, it was a small revenge against the Hero Association that spread the video so that not only the villains but also the world could see it.
So why are you hiding my debut? And why accuse me of something I didn’t do?
If I hadn’t hidden my pre-debut video, I would have sent the video only to the villains as originally intended.
Therefore, this is the Hero Association’s fault.
Tiririri-!
“Hmm?”
As soon as I turned off my computer, the phone rang at the right time. It was a Daepo phone, not my cell phone. Only two people, Yuna and Jungbo, know the number of this cannon phone.
I checked the number and found that the person who called me was Jungbo.
“Okay.”
-Boss. I’ve done everything you said.
“Good job.”
-It was nothing. By the way… Are you really going to throw away all the hideouts?
“Yes. You can find a new hideout anyway.”
-Yes. All right.
“And make sure that the ‘bugs’ don’t starve to death.”
-Ah… I see. Rest in peace Boss.
“Okay.”
The short call with Jungbo ended.
I used the building that the scorpion was using, but now that no one knows about my existence, I threw it away without any regrets.
The villainous organization I created, Skull Head, is clearly a powerful organization. But without me, it becomes just one of the villainous organizations that are widespread in the back world.
As proof of that, I was robbed twice by Aquagirl and Kane while I was away. This is because it is never easy for a non-psychic to deal with a psychic.
If so, to deal with psychic powers like heroes or villains, I should be confined to the hideout, but I can’t.
There is the easiest way to postpone the second generation of a faithful chaebol and protect the hideout.
“[The alter egoist] Is…”
[Clone Magician]
[It is a superpower that creates an alter ego that looks exactly like oneself. The alter ego behaves according to its usual conduct. The created clone’s physical abilities are inferior to that of the main body. You can transfer your consciousness to your alter ego. Depending on the level of the superpower, the number of clones that can be created and the physical ability increase. If the main body has another psychic power, it is possible to use that psychic power.]
If you have this superpower, you don’t have to give up your hideout. This is because as an alter ego, it is possible to act as a steel armor after acting as a man in heat.
In addition, if I show others the situation I encounter after transforming into my alter ego and steel armor, I can completely block suspicion.
Wasn’t there someone who saw my size and recognized me even though I was wearing a mask at Duran’s birthday party the other day?
“Do you take a picture or not?”
The situation tells me to choose a [Clone magician], But I don’t particularly like it. If possible, I would like to choose a destructive superpower with excellent visual effects for the third superpower.
“It’s not urgent. Rather than that, shall we go out soon?”
As always, I am very busy today.
Elizabeth also has to train her to fall in love with me, and I have to go see her bugs too. She also has to make friends with the bugs as she roams the different areas.
But the most pressing thing above all the schedules is…
“Hmm.”
It was the job of mending the suit torn by Kane. I took my suit bag and went outside.
Let’s go see the man who sold me this nice suit.

Chairman Bal Ji-woon was checking the data given to him by the secret agent.
“…”
His expression hardened as if it was a serious matter.
Chairman Bal Ji-woon has two types of subordinates.
One is the chief of staff, Miles, who carries out all the affairs of the Sanctuary company wholeheartedly, and the other is the person who secretly handles secret matters that should not be known to others.
The chief of staff, Miles, thinks that he knows all the secrets of Chairman Bal Ji-woon, but in reality he does not.
Miles did not know Chairman Bal Ji-woon’s most important secret. And he didn’t know that Chairman Bal Ji-woon had a secret agent he didn’t know about.
Chairman Bal Ji-woon, who put down the papers, looked at Campbell Bridge, the secret attendant.
“So… Are you saying that there is a very high probability that my son will be the A-class villain Steel Armor?”
“That’s right.”
“Are you 100% sure?”
“95% sure.”
“95%? What about the remaining 5%?”
“Always keep the 5% chance of failure in mind so you don’t make mistakes.”
“Okay?”
Campbell Bridges was a man who could be said to be Chairman Bal Ji-woon’s hidden sword. He was so loyal that Campbell could really commit suicide if it was Chairman Bal Ji-woon’s order. There were more than 10 heroes and villains who were secretly dealt with under the orders of Chairman Bal Ji-woon.
“It’s 95% for you and 100% for others, so you’re saying that’s for sure.”
“Maybe not.”
“Yes, maybe not. With a very low probability.”
“…”
As Campbell kept his mouth shut, Chairman Bal Ji-woon looked down at the papers again.
‘Can this be?’
A person with supernatural powers will always reveal their existence.
Superpower is an unknown power that cannot be explained even by modern science. How exciting and thrilling it must be to have such power for a person who lived an ordinary life.
In addition, people who have just developed supernatural powers cannot handle them as they wish. Long meditation and training are required to control supernatural powers at will.
It was when he was 8 years old that Chairman Bal Ji-woon first acquired a supernatural power called [Unidentified in the fog].
Now I can handle my superpowers as easily as breathing, but back then I couldn’t control it. The village he lived in suffered a catastrophe in which the fog did not clear for 150 days. Thanks to this, the village where Bal Ji-wun lived became a ghost town where no one lived.
‘You hid it so perfectly? Is that possible?’
It has been 30 years since Chairman Bal Ji-woon lived in the same house with his son. He, of course, is busy with work and doesn’t spend much time with his children, but you can still see if he has superpowers.
He also confirmed the video spread by Steel Armor. Chairman Bal Ji-woon, who checked the video, was in great shock.
Even in the same A-class, if there is a strong A-class psychic, there is also a weak A-class psychic. However, Steel Armor has gone far beyond that category.
I can say for sure.
Steel armor is not A-class, but S-class.
‘I didn’t notice while growing up as an S-class psychic?’
That made it all the more difficult to accept and hard to understand.
‘5%.’
Chairman Bal Ji-woon recalled the odds Campbell had mentioned. He knew that 5% was effectively 0%, but this time he hoped Campbell was wrong.
I don’t know how to hide it if it’s only the Hero Association, but when the S-class villains who are crouching come forward, it’s hard to hide even the best president.
“Campbell.”
“Yes, sir.”
“For now, keep tracking my son. Didn’t you say that the probability of my son being steel armor is 95%? When that 95% becomes 100%, report back then.”
“I’ll investigate again. I’ll report back as soon as I confirm.”
“Okay.”
After Campbell left, Chairman Bal Ji-woon burned the papers he was holding. So that no one could see him. Only after the paper was completely burned did Chairman Bal Ji-woon leave the warehouse. He lit a cigarette.
It was a cigarette that I had been living in my mouth since I was young, but after meeting his wife, I quit. Her wife hated the smell of her cigarettes. Her wife, the fool Bal Ji-un, did not want to be hated by her wife.
“Haa… It’s poisonous.”
Today, however, Chairman Bal Ji-woon smokes again for the first time in decades. He couldn’t help but smoke a cigarette.
-Love! Destiny of fate like a storm of storms!
“100 million!”
His phone rang It was his wife, Stephanie Yu. Surprised, Chairman Bal Ji-woon hurriedly extinguished his cigarette and answered the phone.
“Yes, Yeo-bong~ Chiwoon answered the phone. Yongyongyong~!”
As I said many times, Chairman Bal Ji-woon is 50 years old this year.
-Honey~ Where are you? I went to the president’s office, but you’re not there?
“Oops! Did you miss my queen? I’ve been out for a while now! I’ll go back to work soon!”
-Yes, come quickly. I miss my honey.
“Ouch! Poetry, my heart is full of love! Wait, honey! I’m coming! Just wait! I’ll fly away in 10 minutes!”
Chairman Bal Ji-woon hung up the phone and drove back to the company like crazy.
“Honey! Did you smoke?!”
“…”
And he was scolded by his wife.

-Men’s suit specialty store-
The name of the store is just standing in front of a clothing store at the end of a men’s suit specialty store. It was a common store with an interior that was not much different from other men’s clothing stores.
“I see. It’s a place that’s good enough for a hermit to stay.”
When you hide a tree, did I tell you to hide it in the forest? If it was this ordinary, other people wouldn’t even think that there would be a hermit here.
The person who greeted me at that time was a young man in his early twenties. He asked him if he was the boss, and he replied that he was the boss.
Shelter in her early twenties… Maybe it’s half-romantic.
But here’s a superpower, can a martial arts thing come out?
Well, it doesn’t matter, so I opened the door and went inside.
“Welcome.”
“Hello.”
“Huh? You’re here again?”
“Do you remember me?”
When I entered the store, the boss I saw at the time was diligently brushing the dust off the suits on display. The boss recognized me right away.
“It is impossible not to remember someone who is in such good shape.”
The boss replied with a warm smile.
“But what are you doing?”
“Ah, the clothes are a little torn. Is it possible to repair this? And I want to buy more of the same ones.”
“Haha. Of course it is. Would you like some clothes?”
“Here. Oh, can you repair it for free? I just bought this.”
“Of course, of course. Originally, there should be a receipt, but it’s okay because I remember the customer.”
“Oh yes! Here it is.”
“Yes, please wait a moment.”
The young boss took out a torn suit from his clothes bag and began to check its condition. He looked around the store and asked the manager.
“By the way, what’s the boss’s name? I’m sure he’ll be a regular here, but he’s our common name.”
“Is that so? Ha ha. I’m Peter Elline. What about the guests?”
“I… It’s a mystical concept, so I’ll tell you something else instead of a name.”
“Yes? The concept of mysticism? Haha, you are an interesting person.”
He put on the mask with the skull mask he had brought with him and opened his mouth.
“Nice to meet you. I’m a villain working under the name [Steel Armor].”
“…”
Pop-
While checking the suit, the young boss, Peter’s hands froze.
