BXBX NOVEL Chapter 106: Ep106. Dark Night
月光* (Wolgwang) *TN: Moonlight.
In the dark evening sky, two letters shining pink were shot for the last time.
The villain who caused all these incidents disappeared without a trace. With the pink energy she evoked.
And only heroes remained where the villain left.
“I, this I… I can’t believe I’m so incompetent at night. This is ridiculous! Oh my god. I should just go and die. Why am I even alive?”
Shadow Walker sat on one side, digging the ground alone.
“No… Why isn’t Da-in picking up the phone? Haa… Please…”
And on the other side, Icicle, who mumbled while calling someone with the phone on her face, looking nervous.
And in the middle.
There was Stardus looking at the place where the villain left, with a more somber look than anyone else.
“……”
The place where the villain was in ruins.
This city, which had flourished with people until this day, was destroyed in just one night.
In such a lonely place where no one is here, only the rubble is scattered.
Shin Haru clenched her fist and gritted her teeth.
….It doesn’t matter that the city was smashed. They’re just buildings. They can be rebuilt.
The problem is they couldn’t catch that villain even though they worked so hard.
And a high chance that the villain, who disappeared and left only the word ‘Wolgwang’, will come back.
And the biggest problem is.
When that villain came back and started the attack, she still unlikely wouldn’t be able to stop her then.
“…..”
The moment she aware of that fact again
Such hopelessness poured into her, truly indescribable.
That villain will probably come back.
And she will hurt people, destroy their homes.
And she might still be this incompetent.
With that though, she suddenly raised her head and looked up at the sky.
She has felt this frustration before.
But at the time, she had someone encouraging her.
And sometimes, he would come forward himself and prevent it in advance.
And she didn’t know that back then.
That he was a bigger force than she thought.
Without him, how awful things go.
Only at this moment in his absence, did she realize.
“…..”
And
She realized he wasn’t coming this time.
Realizing he probably won’t come again next time.
She’s unconsciously upset at that fact.
It’s nothing to be sad about, but it’s unknowingly so.
Just under the dark night sky, at the ruins ahead,
Blankly.
She kept staring blankly.

[月光(Wolgwang) lit up the night sky after the attack. What does it mean?]
[The attack that lasted for hours, why couldn’t the heroes stop it?]
[[Exclusive] Shadowwalker was found to be locking himself at home...]
[The Association. Announcement of the establishment of an emergency manual that allows citizens to evacuate safely in case of an emergency. There are also voices of concern that ‘This case will not be fundamentally resolved.’]
[Who is the woman in a shaman suit? The Moonlight Shaman, commonly called by the association. Find out more about her identity.]
The pink storm devastated a city in Seoul.
The incident, which is only known in two words ‘Wolgwang’, turned the South Korean upside down, with the criminal’s identity still unknown.
There’s only one reason why Korea, which is already quite used to villains’ terrorism, has been turned upside down.
Because even though three A-class heroes stuck together, they couldn’t win.
One of them was Shadow Walker who was almost invincible at night, so the shock of the citizens was even greater.
There weren’t many casualties, perhaps God must’ve helped them, but surely it’ll be the same next time.
With all three heroes gone, the association is telling the media that they’re considering a counterplan, but that was it.
Just like that, Korea was boiling up.
It was no exception to the communities either.
*
[Fuck, that Moonlight Shaman or something. Why is she so strong?]
I couldn’t even see her face well.
Even if she’s painted the whole city all by herself with some pink tornado or something.
How can Stardus and Shadow Walker still lose to her?
I don’t understand how Shadow Walker lost from the beginning.

[Shadow, he couldn’t even get close to the villain. He couldn’t even use his ability.]
[According to experts, there’s a high possibility that the shaman or something has something that weakens the heroes’ abilities]
ㄴ[Then fuck, she can make a storm by herself, shoot stars, and even weaken them? How are they going to defeat her?]
ㄴ[That’s why I’m saying they cannot win]
ㄴ[There’s even a rumor that electronic devices don’t work nearby]
[If that’s the case, shouldn’t we borrow S-class heroes from overseas?]
ㄴ[It’s a weaponization capability, so no one seems to be coming… Also, Stardus is almost an S-class, and Shadow is actually an S-class at night, but they’ve been defeated…]
[Well, we’re screwed then.]

[At this time… The person I miss the most…]
‘That man’ who handled the hotel terror attack in Busan alone.
‘That man’ who stopped the crazy giant worm by breaking the bridge before it could pass by.
‘That man’ who took over and blocked when the HanEun group went crazy and invaded Seoul with a giant robot
The best GOAT* of this era *TN: Greatest Of All Time

[AAAh… I thought it was going to be spring after the flowers fell off…]
[S-class hero Apple Mango, please come back]
[Where’s Egostic? I’m not sure if it’s Ego Squash or Squad but please cast her and take her!!!]
[Haa, fuck. My house was destroyed by this attack, but there was no place to claim compensation… Egostic helped me every time]
ㄴ[Isn’t it weird to say ‘fuck’ at the beginning? Hahaha]
[I liked it the most when Egostic terrorized.]
[Mango, can you just close your eyes and help us this time? You’re the only one left after Stardus Shadow Walker and that I-something failed.]
ㄴ[I mean! Shit hahahaha Egotic is a villain, you punk! Wake up!]
ㄴ[If Egostic intervenes in this attack, he’ll help that Moonlight Shaman or something. Why would he help the heroes?]
***
Yep. I’m going to help them.
“Haa… Just, shall we start the next terror attack right away?”
“Da-in. I heard that you’ll just stay still until the second time and then go on the third terror attack, right? What happened?”
“Well… Urg! How can I just watch my Stardus suffering like that?!”
“Da-in… But among the magic circles, we broke the one that strengthens the villain’s ability, so the damage is not much.”
“Yeah. Hey, what have you been saying for a long time? Stardus, you said this is a necessary process to grow her. You said number four was supposed to be number two. But what’s the point of doing it after the first?”
“All right… All right.”
I raised my hands and leaned back on the sofa as a sign of surrender.
Yes, this is a painful but necessary process. Looking at the Stardus’ success these days, it’s true that she has to eat a few punches as much as she doesn’t have many chances to roll like this. On top of that, I manage the magic circles separately, so it’s a safe growth opportunity that will not come back as it’s even possible to control the difficulty.
However, the problem is that watching Haru suffering made me cry without realizing it… Phew. Yeah. Let’s hang in there just once.
By the time I was thinking that, Ha-yul came to me with her phone from my room.
“Da-in oppa. I keep getting calls from a person named Lee Seola.”
“Gosh. Is she still like that? Just turn off the phone.”
“Is that okay?”
To Ha-yul, who tilted her head and expressed doubts, I nodded.
She finally turned off the phone.
It can’t be helped. This is because if Lee Seola tells her the truth in the first place, Shin Haru may sense the composure inside Lee Seola.
It would be nice if I told her that I would come out during the third terrorist attack to prevent it, but it wouldn’t work. In fact, as the event of Lee Seola going up to the north of the original comic and beating Behemoth has disappeared, there’s no harm in her growing up on this occasion.
…But, of course, I’m afraid I’ll be told after all this.
“…Haa”
I sighed again as I watched Stardus’ gritted expression on TV.
I’m sorry, Haru. I’ll definitely come next time.
I mean, let’s just hang in there next time, okay?
“Urgg!!”
“Haa… Are you going to keep doing that until this is over? Doesn’t sound good…”
Listening to Choi Sehee collapsing next to me, I focused on the TV.
As a big Stardus fan, I just have a hunch that the time ahead is going to be terrible.
Oh, gosh.
***
So even after the incident, time went on.
While organizing Stardus photos, I shed a bucket of tears as I posted it on the fan cafe.
When I heard Stardus was having a private training, I spilled out my words. Haru, you won’t be able to win like that!
The association once again delivers counterplans and emergency evacuation instructions to the citizens.
Isn’t the meaning of Wolgwang related to the veiled religion of Wolgwanggyo?… And such words started to spread out.
Not long after, I wrote another letter to the association.
After all, again.
In the middle of Seoul, a huge pink vortex appears.
Wolgwanggyo, the Moonlight Shaman’s second attack began.
“Oh, my!! Haru!”
“Oppa… Please…”
And Shin Haru and her friends were shaking again.
It breaks my heart.
