Chapter 835 – Side Story 339 the Dark Knight Rises (21)
Gaiden 339) The Dark Knight Rises (21)
It’s been a week since an unprecedented incident in which villains with strong personalities, starting with the Floen family, united to attack the Hero Association.
Everyone in the Dark City, regardless of gender or age, watched the fierce and desperate scene through the news. They desperately hoped and hoped for the Hero Association’s victory.
When the Hero Association seized the victory against the Ploen Family, the citizens clenched their fists.
Citizens fell into despair when the Villains Union and the Villains who escaped from the Villains camp appeared.
And when the Dark Knight came with reinforcements, when the heroes finally won, the citizens cheered with their throats exploding.
The heroes who carried everyone’s wishes on their backs finally won.
The heroes were able to find out the truth of this case by interrogating the arrested villains. Among the arrested villains were S-class villains who knew the truth, such as Death Rose, a key member of the Union, and Miracle Boy, a traitor.
In the end, the S-class villains, who realized that they too had been used by Smile, confessed everything they knew.
Upon learning the truth of the incident, the heroes trembled at Smile’s meticulousness, cunning, and executive power. If the Dark Knight’s reinforcements had not arrived in a timely manner, the outcome of the war would have been different.
The fact that such a great war started from the head and mouth of only one person was truly astonishing.
“We must arrest Smile no matter what. He’s too dangerous. We must, we must catch him.”
Ice Queen, the head of the Hero Association, has organized a pursuit team consisting of three S-class heroes: Piero, Ether, and Genephider. Taking out three S-class heroes in a situation where the aftermath of the war had not yet gone away meant that she thought Smile was dangerous.
… Of course, Smile, who said she must catch it, was fiercely oxidized by her own bomb.
*****
Public opinion on the Floen family was not very good.
No matter how much they were used by the villains, the fact that they were the starting point of this war did not change. If the Ploen family hadn’t moved, the villain union wouldn’t have been able to move easily either.
Accordingly, the boss of the Ploen family, their mother and godmother, returned the property to society to restore the damage, while declaring that the children who followed her would no longer commit crimes.
With the words that if there is a child who commits a crime, he will gladly lay down his life in front of everyone.
Of course, it was hard to completely overturn public opinion with those words, but the godmother and the Floen family didn’t care.
Even if others criticize or point fingers, they silently kept their word. Indeed, they returned all their property to society and took the lead in restoration of damage.
Money was not the most important thing for the Ploen family.
What mattered to them was family, that is, family.
That is why they are part of the Floen family.
Godmother and Speed Road have returned safely.
That was enough.
*****
The Ploen family, wearing hard hats, ran around busily. There was no one to take a break. Because their mother and godmother were there.
Two men and women were looking at the damage repair site. The man was enormous, and the woman was short, wearing a red cloak.
What to do with hiding
It was the match girl between the Dark Knight and the S-class villain.
“Why don’t you come along and help?”
“…”
“Wouldn’t it be nice to hang out with you?”
“…”
The match girl squeezed her mouth shut. He looked at the girl, no, at the [God] Who was using the girl’s body.
The god currently occupying the girl’s body is a transcendent being like me and Cthulhu. She introduced herself as [Hydra].
Idra was different from Cthulhu, who had an infinite greed that devours everything. She is sympathetic to human beings, and sometimes she wishes to become human herself.
A god who admires humans.
It really can’t be ironic.
Anyway, Idra, a god who longs for humans, wanders around the world, descends and grants human wishes. And this time, the person who granted her wish was the girl she had descended to.
There are many ways for gods to descend to earth.
The Dark Knight, the creator of this world, can exist without any restrictions.
Cthulhu, a god who does not belong to this world, must sacrifice countless human blood, bodies, and souls in order to descend. In this case, he can use his full power.
And in the case of Hydra, she descended into a girl’s body with most of her own powers sealed away.
Idra forcibly expelled the girl’s soul and did not take her body. She uses the body of a girl who died in the face of everyone’s ignorance, and eventually died.
The dead girl’s only wish was to have a meal with her family in a warm home like the other children.
He tried to make the girl’s wish come true, but it wasn’t easy.
Since the body’s original owner died, the body no longer grows. Hydra, a match girl has to live her whole life as a 12-year-old.
Unable to be her own mother, her only option is to be someone’s daughter.
But that wasn’t easy either.
The girl to whom the god of the other world descended aroused instinctive fear and fear in humans. Just like my family did when I went up to Earth in the past.
Everyone tried to ignore Hydra.
Then one day, there was someone who reached out to her and talked to her for the first time.
‘Baby. Why are you dressed so thin on this cold day?’
‘…’
The person who reached out to her was none other than her godmother, Easploen. She bought clothes, shoes, and warm food for a girl who was naked in the harsh winter.
The red cloak she now wears was then bought by her godmother.
Idra, who descended into this world and received kindness from others for the first time in her life, was terribly embarrassed. She felt an unknown emotion and it was so unfamiliar that she just ran away.
Hydra was influenced by a girl who died without ever receiving her kindness.
But she always followed her godmother out of sight. And the day her godmother was attacked by her union, she helped her. It was to repay her kindness to her godmother.
“Even if blood isn’t connected, we can still be a family. Originally, families are created that way. And Eas is the one who proved that.”
“…”
At my words, Hydra’s gaze turned to her godmother. Although she is the eldest, she took the lead in organizing the scene more than anyone else. Even when her children told her to take a break because they would do it, she did what I had to do.
“She can be your family.”
“… I am.”
Hydra, no, said the Dark Knight who saw through the wishes of the dead girl she had descended on. Then Hydra broke her silence and opened her mouth.
“I evoke a visceral fear in humans. Anyone who sees me is horrified. If I become that woman’s family… The family will be broken. It will be shattered like glass on the floor.”
“Aren’t you underestimating the Floen family too much?”
“…”
Hydra looked at the Dark Knight.
“They’re stronger than any family I’ve ever seen. They’re bound by bonds thicker than blood. Do you think that bond will break if you squeeze between them? Show me.”
“…”
“Go. Go and become their family. If you can’t be a family… I’ll be your family. So don’t be afraid to fail and approach them.”
“…”
The Dark Knight’s words became bullets and pierced Hydra’s heart.
Hydra, the girl, took one step at a time towards the Floen family.
The Floen family looked at the small and delicate girl who approached them with her curious eyes. But only one of hers, her godmother, greeted her with her smile.
“It’s been a while.”
“…”
“Have you eaten? If not, shall we eat together?”
“… Huh.”
Her godmother was not afraid of a girl who hadn’t changed in the years. He held out her hand to her girl as she would treat her own children.
Hydra, her girl wrinkled, but she held her warm hand.
*****
“Whoa…”
The Ice Queen, who had been busy days without opening her eyes, sighed as she leaned back in her chair. She was so busy that even taking a short break was a luxury of her own, but she was a person, not a machine. She needed some time off, even if it was just for a little while.
“Why are you trying to hide behind…”
The Ice Queen murmured.
Her current focus is on erasing the Dark Knight’s traces in this war. She wasn’t what she wanted, she was because of the Dark Knight’s favor.
However, erasing the traces of the Dark Knight was not easy. Traces of him were left here and there like stains spread on white drawing paper.
When the Hero Association and the Ploen family waged war, injured people disappeared as if they had been teleported. At the time, everyone was so distracted that not many people noticed.
There was only one person in the Dark City who could do that.
It wasn’t the only sign of him. In order to save the Ice Queen in danger, he even appeared and attacked the Regent himself. Many people saw it.
Is that all?
The Dark Knight even brought in a huge number of reinforcements.
There were strong traces of him all over the war, and it was quite difficult to erase them all.
“…It’s not that I don’t understand.”
Ice Queen loves the Dark Knight. She shared a lot of her rapport with him, so she understood what he was thinking when he asked to erase his traces.
He was wary of a country-sized city called the Dark City being controlled by one person.
The Dark Knight has left a big mark on the Dark City. Even the biggest one saved the world from Cthulhu.
That’s why people gave him a new name, the knight who protects the Dark City, the Dark Knight, who used to be called Steel Armor.
He has enough power to protect the world.
People will worship and idolize the God who exists before them. And will depend.
No matter what problem arises, you will think, ‘The Dark Knight will solve it’. All problems will depend on the ‘God’ who exists in front of you.
The Dark Knight didn’t want that.
What is the Dark City like?
When monsters ruled the world and wiped out all mankind, it was a breakwater and shelter for mankind that people risked their lives to protect and create. It is a symbol proving that humans are not yet dead.
It wasn’t the Dark Knight who created such a Dark City.
They were people who risked their lives one by one to fight against the monsters.
The Dark Knight did not want the people’s blood, sweat, tears, and frozen places to be controlled by him.
God never solves human affairs. Solve human affairs with human power.
The Dark Knight is saying that.
“I’m glad you know my thoughts so well. So please take care of it~”
“Aww!”
The Ice Queen screamed, stunned by her familiar voice and the lecherous hands grasping her breasts from behind her. Jumping up from her chair, she looked behind her and there stood the lover she had been thinking about just a moment ago.
“When did you come? Haa… I was really surprised. How come you don’t feel the crowd as the days go by?”
The Ice Queen sighed and grumbled. Her grumbling was an act to hide her hardened expression.
‘I can definitely feel it now.’
Through this battle, Ice Queen finally succeeded in jumping over the 10th level wall. She became a level 11 psychic.
The difference between level 9 and level 10 is significant. And the difference between level 10 and level 11 is much bigger than that.
The Ice Queen, who reached the level of a true superhuman, became the Dark Knight, and she could feel how strong, no, great the man she loved was.
God.
The man Ice Queen loved was a being who could truly be called a god.
But at the same time he was human.
A person who loves his family, who laughs when others laugh and grieves when others are sad.
“Come on, Jimin.”
“… Huh.”
The Dark Knight sat down where the Ice Queen had been sitting just before. And he stretched out her hand to her. Smiling, she sat on his lap.
“… Good night.”
The Ice Queen, who held her lover tightly, liked the firm arms that hugged her tightly, and the warm body temperature she felt from him.
“Yeah. I’m fine too.”
The Dark Knight also hugged the ice queen in her arms. He is a very energetic man. So when we meet, we start by having sex.
But this wasn’t bad either. Even if you don’t mix your body, even if you just hold each other, a corner of your heart becomes warm and happy.
“… Now I can unload a bit.”
“Jim? What are you talking about?”
At the sudden remark, the Ice Queen looked at her lover. He smiled.
“The knight who protects the Dark City, the Dark Knight.”
“…”
“It was too much of a responsibility for a selfish, foolish idiot like me to shoulder.”
“… Okay?”
“Huh.”
Returning to Dark City after 3 years, he secretly solved many problems. He protected citizens and loved ones from villains.
If he had been the man he was three years ago, he would have spread rumors all over the neighborhood that he had worked this out himself. He did not hide himself and would have enjoyed the cheers of the people.
But when he came back, he was different.
Just as a child becomes an adult, he matures mentally.
He does not dare to reveal his good deeds. He solved the problem silently, as if it was just what he had to do.
He never once asked for a reward for his actions. Because he already has what he wants. A precious treasure called family.
“This city no longer needs me. Because there are countless dark knights.”
“There are dark knights?”
“Yes. You, Yuna, Gina, Ignis, Raonjena, Ellis… Knights with the name Hero.”
“…”
“From now on, these Dark Knights will protect the Dark City. Someday, hard and painful times will come, but it’s okay. The Dark Knights will never give up on this city or the people they love.”
“Tony…”
“The dark knights have risen.”
The Ice Queen said the name of the Dark Knight, or rather, the man who had lightly cast off that weighty and responsible name.
He thought he was a man who lived as he pleased without thinking. But inside, there was a ‘human’ who struggled to carry a heavy burden.
“And.”
“My cock woke up too.”
“… Huh?”
The Ice Queen frowned at the words that followed. As if to prove her own words, her thick, hard thing pricked her ass.
Tony’s eyes turned dark as he looked at the Ice Queen. His hand caressed her breasts blatantly.
“Jimin, let’s do it together.”
“… Ha. Then it is.”
She sighed.
After all, she feels once again that the man she loves is a ‘human’ who lives as she wants.
After a while-
Aang, ah, ah!
A strange moaning sound echoed in the president’s office.
