Ep.168 Each Persons Reaction

As I taunted Metel, I avoided her attacks and waited for the right moment to strike.

Once I had my plan in place, I soared up into the sky.

Metels attacks followed, but he was ready for them.

And then everything went according to plan.

I pretended to be flustered and distracted, causing Metel to let her guard down.

With Seo-euns help, I maneuvered my way through the falling rocks like a darting fish and dodged the attacks.

I knew that I was taking a risk by using my abilities so recklessly, but as long as I could defeat the American hero, I was willing to do anything.

However, after several minutes of dodging and weaving, I began to grow bored.

My heart is pounding so hard I cant watch.

Mango is barely dodging by a hair. LOL.

Just hold on a little longer!!

I dont know whats up with Metel or Metain, but something about them really rubs me the wrong way. Theyre holding hostages, and all they can do is curse. LOL.

Egostic fighting! We cant lose to these Yankees!

[But seriously, even though theyre exaggerating and not even hitting anything with their camera, theyre actually playing along, right? Please tell me thats whats happening!!!!!!]

[Why is everyone cheering for the villain when the hero and villain are fighting? hahahaha]

[If youre Korean, of course you should support the patriotic person who is fighting against foreign invaders atrocities. hahahaha]

[Patriotism is great hahahaha]

Looking at the chat window, it seems like other people know that Im barely holding on.

As I continued to dodge the rocks, another current suddenly flowed.

It was a huge rock hand that was different from the simple rocks so far, and it seemed to have taken an enormous amount of energy as it approached me.

In that sudden crisis situation,

I grinned.

Nows the time.

Yes, Da-in!

I whispered quietly and then grinned, holding my hat and facing the camera as if to ask when I had been dodging.

Shall we stop running away now?

As I stopped dodging and stood still in the air, waiting for the giant rock hands to come flying towards me, the chat window began to fill with question marks.

At the same time, I raised one hand and flickered my ring.

Come out, Death Knight.

Finally, its my turn!!!!

With a voice ringing in my head,

A huge black greatsword appeared in front of me.

Swoosh!

As the rock hand coming towards me was cut off,

Kwaaaang!

A purple light flashed from behind, and a huge pink beam shot out from below with tremendous force.

With an incredible gust of wind that made my body feel like it was flying, and at the same time, countless rocks falling from the air and losing their center of gravity, falling to the ground.

Swiftly dodging a rock falling onto me, I naturally looked down below. Ouch I saw Metel bouncing like a cannonball, bouncing on the ground like a bouncy ball after being hit by a destruction beam and a lightning bolt during a moment of carelessness.

Ouch. That looked painful.

Soon, she continued to fly forward.

Quaaaang!

With a sound of something collapsing, she crashed into a building wall and finally stopped.

Hmm

This power is a bit stronger than I expected? I found myself scratching my head and thinking, without even realizing it.

Well, today was just a test run. I was planning to properly schedule the real battle next time, but somehow the impact was greater than I anticipatedeven though I only brought two people with me without even taking Danguri.

But its not like Im trembling just by looking at it. It should be enough for the next terror.

With that in mind, I smiled and turned to the camera.

Wellit went according to plan. So, shall we see what happened?

After saying that, I, along with Desiki, who had a great sword on my shoulder, went down.

Da-in

Yes. You did well.

While saying so, Eun-wol also appeared from behind, panting, so I patted her head and went down with her.

Like me, who was tired from dodging so much, Eun-wol also seemed exhausted from preparing for the last beam shot, drawing all kinds of magic circles and pouring energy.

Well praise her when we get home, for now, lets go meet those American punks.

As we landed on the ground, we forcibly pulled Metel, who had surrounded herself with rocks to protect her body, with Desiks sword.

She looked like a complete wreck, so much so that I couldnt believe she was an S-class hero. Her eyes were still blazing, looking up at me with tears in her eyes.

Anyway, the camera was still rolling at this moment, so I quickly said what I had to say and left.

First, provocation.

Well well

Metel responded with a voice barely audible, almost collapsing, while laughing dryly.

You ass

Regardless of what she said, I kept talking.

Well, I mean Youve been talking big about being S-class and all, I thought you were really strong. But I guess not

So youre weaker than my hero Stardus?

I said mockingly, and she responded by having a seizure while laughing.

Well, that should be enough

If I want her to lose her mind and attack me later, I need to do a little more.

Approaching her with a glare, I grabbed her chin with my finger.

Then, getting closer and whispering so that only she could hear me, not the camera.

So You usually hide behind other heroes. You went out alone with what kind of confidence?

As I spoke with a smile, she stumbled.

As I let go of her hand and looked back, she stared at me with eyes burning like she was going to eat me. Oh my, its been a while since I saw such a passionate look.

Eventually, in a fit of anger, she created a tiny pointed rock fragment in the air and Desik easily broke it with his sword in a last-ditch effort.

I laughed again and said, Well Youre too weak to be worth fighting, and its not even fun. Lets go, everyone.

As I said that, I turned my back and fluttered my cloak, moving forward.

I could hear curses and insults from behind, but I didnt care.

So I grabbed Desik and Eun-wol and teleported away. Oh, and I brought Electra waiting behind too.

Ah, todays work was neatly done. Better than expected.

Now, I need to rest at home and prepare for the next terror.

Metel. I will completely crush her and make sure she never sets foot in Korea again, the last terror.

And, thinking about the plan, well, its even better.

Meanwhile, South Korea will be in chaos again.

And my prediction, as expected, didnt go wrong.

[Breaking News) Egostic defeats American S-class hero Metel Metel urgently transferred to the association hospital]

Live broadcasted throughout South Korea, the video of Egostic defeating the S-class hero.

This news quickly spread throughout the country.

People were amazed that a U.S. S-class hero had secretly come to Korea to capture Egostic, who was an A-class villain in South Korea.

They were even more surprised that Egostic had smashed her.

That sudden happening.

If the reaction of South Koreans to this incident can be summarized in one word

Why did you come all the way here and cause trouble when we didnt even ask for your help?

[I wouldve been so satisfied if the terrorists had been fooled and then killed hahahaha]

Who asked the U.S. for help? hahahaha

Just Egostic<<<pretending to run away in confusion and then suddenly using her power to defeat Metelits so satisfying~~ If it had been a lie, it would have been even better hahahaha

=[Comments]=

[Lets give a round of applause hahaha]

[They suddenly came and caused a ruckus, but ended up being disciplined hahaha]

[When I saw them just telling the hostages to f*** off and sacrifice them, I was so dumbfounded. Fortunately, there was no one in the building, so it was lucky.]

[The U.S. S-class hero is nothing compared to our South Korean S-class hero <<<Mangostick just proved it hahaha]

[I was sweating with my palms and stood up and applauded when Metel was knocked downthis is patriotism hahaha]

[Who said you could just capture our S-class hero? hahaha]

[Seriously, isnt this a security threat from a powerful country? hahaha]

[I checked YouTube quickly, and Korean patriotic TV has already been uploaded hahaha. Theyre saying that the U.S. is no match for us, and so on hahaha]

[Stardust <<< just thinking about it makes me satisfied hahaha]

The person who always protected the hostages under any circumstances

The person who maintained zero casualties like a sharp knife

The person who always made the Egostic opponent win and run away

The person who always creates chemistry with Mango just by appearing on broadcasts

The person who was directly recognized by the Egostic

Simply put, the overwhelming number one hero in Korea and the hero in charge of Egostic,

Stardus

<- If this is true, upvote hahahaha

=[Comments]=

[Upvote hahahaha]

[I used to be in the Electra team, but after watching this broadcast, I switched to the Stardus team hahahaha]

[Honestly, Stardus is just an S-class hero hahahaha]

[In this broadcast, Mangos Moonlight Shaman called him Da-in and they were affectionate, but Stardus, who didnt even appear, was stronger]

[Seriously hahahaha, Egostic said from the beginning that his hero is Stardus, so if this isnt true, what is~]

[That was just a phrase meaning arch-enemy, but youre overreacting.]

[Looking at the authors post list, it seems to be from the Ice Mango team hahahaha]

[Ahahaha]

[The Icicle you support!!! Is not!!! Egostics my hero hahahaha]

[Damn hahahaha, this is so funny hahahaha]

[I really miss you, Stardus]

[It seems true hahahaha]

***

Contrary to the enthusiastic reaction in Korea, American citizens were not particularly interested in this incident.

There were so many S-class heroes that they didnt have much interest in each one, and it was not uncommon for a hero to make a mistake or lose in a battle against a villain.

Of course, it was a bit shocking that they were defeated by an A-class from a country with a small pool of talented individuals like Korea, but even that was quickly overshadowed by the fact that the mainland United States was already in chaos due to various terrorist attacks.

Still, there was some interest in this incident among the North American hero community.

As Americans who literally treat heroes as heroes, most of the reaction was that it was unfortunate, but there are always exceptions.

[Yeah, Metel couldnt do anything alone from the beginning, why did he even try hahahaha]

AAAAHHH!!! Fucking assholes!!!!!

That patient! Hero-nim! Calm down!

Administer one dose of tranquillizer B-4 here!!!

As Metel screamed in anger at the treatment center within the association.

Shin Haru, who was sitting nearby with a smartphone in one hand, could only smirk as she heard the noise.

It was a rare moment of inner peace for her.
