BXBX NOVEL Chapter 18: Hero
Well, most people would have the same thought.
That person is going to break into pieces.
That is a common thought.
In that sense, what do you think when you see someone running toward an oncoming train?
You would not able to think much other than, ‘These days, people try so many ways to suicide!’
The view that I\'m looking at now is the same.
A slender woman is running straight to the train.
But I have faith in her.
I believe that she will not be shattered.
But this is not the time for me to say so.
It\'s time to be exaggerated.
I made a fuss at the sight.
“No!!! Is that even possible? If you do that, you will be shattered!”
[Did Stardus finally go out of her mind?]
[I know Stardus is an A-class hero but can she handle that?]
[No, I don’t think Stardus will be able to handle it. I saw the data posted by the Hero Association, the maximum amount of her physical strength is less than that train crash.]
[What will happen?]
[I said that she should have chosen either one or five deaths, but it seems like we will have six deaths.]
“Wait! Ms. Stardus! Why are you trying to kill yourself? Stop!!!”
I\'m screaming on the cliff, loud enough for Stardus to hear me.
I was only watching Stardus running into the train in vain.
But the chat window is heating up.
[Koitsu*. Why is he panicking over meeting a mad woman? wwwww] *TN: “This brat”. It is actually a Japanese word, but Koreans use it as slang.
[He only re-created a dilemma but someone is committing suicide. Hahahahaha]
[Why is Mango Stick frozen?]
[He became an ice mango. wwwwwww]
[I think they should upgrade him to an S-class villain.]
[He can eliminate an A-class hero by doing nothing. Hahahahahaha]
[These crazy brats! If Stardus dies, we are doomed, too. It\'s not time for you guys to laugh!!!]
[Isn’t Stardus in charge of Seoul? I don’t live in Seoul, so it doesn’t matter. Hahahahaha]
[As long as it’s not meeeeee Hahahahaha]
“This… This is not my intention…”
I muttered bitterly.
To be exact, I\'m pretending to be bitter.
Not my intention, my ass. Of course, this is my intention.
With Stardus’ personality, there is no way that she would let anyone sacrifice.
She would rather sacrifice herself.
Stardus. Shin Haru.
Shin Haru goes through many hardships in the original comic.
All kinds of extraordinary villains do their best and try various ways to kill Stardus.
In the process, Shin Haru’s body and mind become tattered. Even though she is more righteous than anyone else, she constantly suffers.
On the first day that I realized that I had stepped into this strange world, I made a promise.
Let’s relieve Stardus, Shin Haru’s pain.
But there is a tiny problem.
Like any hero in the hero movies, Shin Haru also gets stronger as she goes through hardships.
The more exhausted your mind is, the stronger your ability will get, and the harder your body is, the stronger your ability will also get.
A grass-like character who overcomes hardships.
But the thing is, the odds are fading as I decide to remove villains instead of her.
She has to suffer, but she doesn’t suffer because of me.
If she does not suffer, she cannot become stronger.
And if she cannot get stronger, there will be a lot of trouble.
As I said before, the world which was made up in the original comic will become power inflation. Obviously, Korea, where appropriate heroes and appropriate villains are gathered, becomes a story of villains becoming insanely stronger over time and Stardus also becoming insanely stronger.
And the U.S. In this worldview, the United States is always in a state where it seems to be able to turn into a mess in 5 minutes. Korea is the world’s no.1 in having no S-class hero, and also a country that has the most S-class villains. A country where all kinds of incidents and accidents happen every day.
In the second half of the story, some kind of deity appears, and also the world has to face global destruction, which even the S-class people in the U.S. cannot stop but my Stardus prevents them all.
I have been talking for too long, but the bottom line is that Stardus have to suffer and get stronger to prevent the end of the world.
And now I\'m the one who has to give her the hardships.
Wouldn’t it be better for Stardus to suffer from me, who is in charge of a systematic and well-organized hardship curriculum, rather than suffering from those unpredictable villains that only cause casualties to the citizens and property damages?
Anyway, I\'m better than them.
And the first of my hardship gift set is blocking the train, which is coming right away.
Yeah, it can be hard. It can be hard, but we will be able to withstand it for one day. Stardus, cheer up!
At that moment, Stardus crashed into the train.
BUMP! A tremendous roar that can be heard all the way here.
[AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!]
…Also, Soobin’s scream.
I\'m so sorry, Soobin. Please hang in there a little longer.
I watched the sight with my mouth open.
Through a cloud of dust, the train kept running.
However, it\'s certainly slowing down.
Because someone is pushing it at the front.
The squeaking train, which was slowing down, finally managed to stop just right in front of those five people. It works! It stopped! Phew, I secretly sighed.
Hold on. Stardus is okay, right? I looked there with my fist clenched. She made it, right? She definitely made it. There is no way my Stardus would collapse because of this. That’s right, she definitely made it.
I gulped down my saliva without myself knowing. An unprecedented situation. The dust began to clear out.
I somehow started to feel anxious. What if she died? Oh, then that cannot happen.
A horrifying moment.
Before I knew it, all the dusty clouds were cleared up.
What appeared in it was the image of Stardus standing firm.
I opened my clenched fist and shouted without realizing it.
“Yes!!!… I mean! Oh! Oh… Oh! You made it. You made it. Wow, you made it. Yeah, this is not what I planned, but… Well, alright. You solve this dilemma in your own way. Hmm. Alright.”
[Did he just yell “Yes”? Hahahahaha]
[Doesn’t he look happier than anyone else since Stardus is okay?]
[I knew it from the moment this Mango Stick killed the other villains and wrote Stardus’ name. He is Stardus’ number one fan all this time. wwwwww]
[What the fuck? “Yes” he said. Hahahaha]
[Egostic is so cute.]
[Wow, but Stardus made it! How did she do that?]
[Wasn’t the speed like 140? How can a person withstand that?]
[Not a person, she is a hero.]
[Stardus! Stardus! Stardus! Stardus! Stardus! Stardus! Stardus! Stardus! Stardus! Stardus! Stardus! Stardus!]
[Mom, I\'m going to become Stardus when I grow up! Mom, I\'m going to become Stardus when I grow up! Mom, I\'m going to become Stardus when I grow up!]
[Seriously hahahahah. I thought Stardus would be cursed whether she turns the lever or not, but she solved it like this. Hahahahahahaha]
[Those who cursed at Stardus, come out right now!!]
[Egostic still caused zero casualties. Is this for real? Egostic is really a legend…]
[I\'m asking the association to appoint Egostic as an A-class hero.]
The reactions in the chat window are also very good.
Yeah, this is it! Stardus deserves this!
I\'m relieved. Good, good. Even though there were also zero casualties this time, there will be more people who will fall out of me… Yes, I can take this much sacrifice for my Stardus.
Right at the moment I was so moved by myself, I could see Stardus collapsing in the distance. Uh-oh.
I immediately went to Stardus.
Stardus collapsed on the floor.
Covering in dust, she could barely open her eyes, and she was wheezing. She looked like she was about to pass out.
“You… punk…”
Stardus called me in an exhausting voice.
Looking at how she looked like she was about to faint, I felt a little sorry. I made her suffer because she had to, but I feel sorry for making it hard on her like this.
Before she faints, I should at least say something.
I sat on one knee beside her and spoke up.
“Yes, Stardus. Good job. In a way that I could have never imagined. I didn’t expect you to save everyone in that way. It\'s your victory. I\'m going to take off now, so get some rest. There will be other heroes coming soon.”
As I whispered, I reached out one hand and closed her eyes.
She tried to resist for a while, but as soon as her eyes closed, she seemed to have completely lost her strength as she breathed heavily, but eventually, she fell asleep. Yeah, it must have been hard for her.
I stood up and turned around, then said goodbye to the camera.
“Alright. That was my terrorism for today. Thank you for watching.”
Everything seems quiet now, I should pick up the fainted Soobin in the engine room and head home.
After my ending greeting, I turned off the camera. As soon as the broadcast was turned off, the chat ended.
[What was that between the two of them?]
That was the last comment.
And that night, a love scandal between Egostic and Stardus broke out.
Is this really… Korea?
