Chapter 379 – The Secret Life of a Sidekick (25)
After returning home using Shadow Jump, he took off the Blaze King’s suit and sat comfortably on the bed.
“Now can I just watch my reputation grow?”
At least because he is a villain who knows something, the fact that he did such a thing will spread over time.
I was trying to check the quest window when the guide called the villain smartphone.
“What’s going on?”
“We even started a business together, but it’s cold. So what do you plan to do next?”
“I should leave it to the heroes. As a villain, I did everything I could.”
“Are you going to abandon Blaze King and return to Shadow Fang?”
I thought a guide would know.
I can hack any CCTV or electronic device, but it would be impossible to hide my identity from that guy until the end.
Fortunately, the guide didn’t go around talking about it around the neighborhood, as if he had his own rules.
“We’ll have to wait and see. A world without heroes or villains would be best, but this issue hasn’t been completely resolved.”
“I was unable to confirm the two entities, the Enchanter and the Enhancer, until the end.”
“There’s a chance we’ll come back to the playground we messed up, but not for a while.”
“Wouldn’t they come if we put up a sign prohibiting entry?”
“I hope so.”
The guide hung up first.
After taking a short break from the phone call, I put Blaze King’s suit in the secret closet and turned on the news.
Although the incident in Area A is being broadcast, there is no news that properly captures the interior.
And after some time, several A-class heroes, led by air divers, arrived at the ground and trudged over to stand in front of the reporter who wanted to report.
“Blaze King’s words were true. We will establish a new order by gathering the power of heroes who are willing to change the association.”
“To be honest, I don’t know what will happen to Hero City tomorrow. But I think he was right for today.”
“If a villain tries to solve the problem in front of him with force without looking far ahead, then he is a villain.”
After the heroes gave a short interview, a video began showing the reporters entering the basement created in Area A.
As mentioned in the second video posted through the guide, everything was clearly revealed: the broken test tubes, the burned body of the villain, the B-class heroes who cleaned it up, and the food production factory.
The quest was completed before everyone knew the truth about Hero City and their reputation could be checked to see if the previous interviews with the heroes had any influence.
『Quest-2』
〈Increase your reputation as Blaze King.〉
-Reputation: (1001/1000)
-Completed: Increased achievement of Yeonyeom Shingong (連炎神功).
『Tutorial Quest-5』
〈Experience pharmaceutical possession once.〉
-Completion: Obtain pharmaceutical possession.
With Choi Xian’s Quest 2 completed, the tutorial quest received as Yu Xian was also completed.
Now I can use my possession whenever I want, and now that I have completed three quests, I can return to the return of possession.
“Was it a little long?”
My daily life was a bit monotonous, patrolling and beating up villains, but I spent a lot of time raising my reputation.
I think it would have been better to quickly increase my reputation in a different direction by doing something like broadcasting, but I chose a too safe method.
“I’m glad my time doesn’t pass.”
Compared to others, I am able to practice for an infinite amount of time, and with my self-establishment, I no longer feel the gap in time.
If no other quests come up, there is no need to spend any more time here.
If I could do it to this extent, wouldn’t Choi Sian do well on his own?
I used Possession Return.
*
“Whoa…”
I got out of bed while catching my breath.
I went to the library to study how to control yin energy and yang energy, and after a long search for a possessed body, I ended up possessing myself using pharmaceutical possession.
【1】 There was still Choi Xian left in slot number 1, but the assimilation rate was still 50%.
Is this because they used pharmaceutical possession? I thought it would be different if I tried to possess myself again using Underworld Possession, so the moment I was about to try it, a quest appeared in front of me.
『Quest』
〈【1】 Make the hierarchy of the possessed body into one perfect world with complete liberation containing the power of the Supreme Ruler. 〉
-Upon completion: Reinforcement of Yeonhwanryu (C)
“It seems like it was real that this world was somehow twisted. If I hadn’t been possessed, would I have simply adapted to that world?”
It’s an imperfect world where there is only a hero city for my quest. Can’t I do more possessions instead of returning it to a single world?
I’ve developed a deep relationship with Yuna, and I don’t think I have anything more to gain from that world.
Rather, I thought it would be better to strengthen Yeonhwanryu by completing quests.
“Complete liberation with the power of Choyulja. Let’s try it.”
Skill Link-Boost
Choyulja. Complete liberation.
At that moment, my eyes turned pure white.
*
Choi Sian, who found out that the Korean Hero Association was planning to use villains to mass produce talented people, put on the mask of Blaze King and solved the problem.
The world raised voices criticizing the Korean Hero Association, and the high-ranking members of the existing association were completely replaced.
The newly appointed president of the association is an association executive in charge of the briefings that heroes are most familiar with. He said that he dreams of a world where villains disappear and heroes become unemployed.
Choi Sian broke the smartphone he was using when he was in Blaze King form and threw Blaze King’s clothes in the trash, letting citizens know that Blaze King was no longer needed in Korea.
And he officially applied for a relationship with Yeon-ah, and Shadow Fang and Impact Girl became a couple. The problem is that Shadow Fang has weakened to the level of a sidekick again.
Shadow Fang, who had been wandering around the day suppressing villains alone, was defeated by villains one after another, and became a B-class hero again not because he was out of shape but because his strength had actually weakened.
Since he couldn’t go back to being Impact Girl’s sidekick once he publicly became a lover with her, a big incident happened to Choi Xian when he was teaming up with another A-class hero.
After Yoo Yeon-ah’s pregnancy and her identity as Blaze King were abandoned, the two tried to have a child, but a premarital pregnancy led to them getting married and Yeon-ah taking a leave of absence.
Choi Sian, who became the happiest sidekick in the world, worked hard to sharpen his skills and became stronger again to a level slightly below A-level, and as time went by, Yuyeon-ah gave birth
She was smiling brightly in her hospital room, holding an unrecognizable baby, when her baby sneezed, and flames came out of her mouth.
“Huh… ?”
“Honey… ?”
After hearing Yuna’s very cold voice, Choi Sian slowly raised his head.
“By any chance were you the Blaze King?”
“Uh… No?!”
He used instantaneous acceleration on the bed and was thrown out with Yuna running towards him.
*
“I wouldn’t have died from that.”
In the case of Lee Si-an, even her death was completely shown, but Choi Si-an was cut off halfway through.
Is it because I failed to complete the path of destiny? Still, I’m glad to see them living happily.
And Korea, seeing that various worlds are emerging, it seems that the hierarchy has been properly completed.
【Skill: Link flow (B)】
【Mu (武) was fragmented and refined for ease of use.】
【One. Breakthrough: Grants the power to move forward.】
【2. Spiral: Gives rotational power.】
【3. Chamjeol (斬切): Grants the power to cut.】
【4. Spread: Grants the power to spread.】
And as a reward for liberating the class, the spread of Yeonhwanryu was obtained.
When destroying the underground area of Area A, the power of the spiral was used to spread out, but it seemed like it could be easily solved by giving it diffusion.
And since most of my skills are for interpersonal battles, I think I’ll get good results if I mix them well with skill links.
“Shahemoth.”
When I called for Shahemoth and used Shadow Craft, a small form of Shahemoth immediately appeared.
“Master is back?”
I brought Shahemos from the world of Xian Raven, and took her with me for a long time under the name of Sohye in the world of Han Xian.
And I gently stroked the gray hair of Shahemos, who thought that my world was now the real world he would live in.
“Hmph.”
As if it felt good when I stroked its head her, it made a snoring noise and fell into my arms.
“Shahemoth, I want to hear a story about the devil and the devil?”
“Suddenly?”
“Originally, I was planning on going there if I couldn’t find a place to possess, but I ended up finding it and went there.”
“Is that so? The Demon King is the king of demons!”
“What about demons?”
“Should we say that demons are humans who have inherited the blood of demons? They are a race that lives in the demon world and is innately capable of controlling demon energy.”
Such things have already been acquired through the knowledge of the Global Academy.
From the beginning, this world had a principle of judging and disposing of all races other than humans as enemies.
Unless you were a familiar, it was impossible to see a different race outside the dungeon.
‘I don’t know from the shadows.’
“But why the devil and the demons?”
“What do you have to do to make a hero appear? Roughly speaking, a hero exists to stop the devil, right?”
“I guess the Demon King is just expanding his territory? The more land, the better, right?”
“Demons like you were sent as the advance guard?”
“Yes. At the very least, the demon world can only interfere when faith in God weakens. Unlike God, who does not show himself but uses a representative, the devil only shows his power directly.”
If we catch and kill all the devils hiding in the hierarchy, will the demon world be unable to interfere and there will be no heroes?
I thought that if I were to possess Cyan Raven, she might be aiming for that since most of her recent quests involve hunting demons.
