That bastard... What the hell?

-I know it's difficult to answer right away. You probably need time to think.

-...

-If you have any questions, I would like you to contact us anytime. I just want you to know that I'm ready at any moment, Sunset Swordsman.

'What? What in the world...'

It was just for a moment, but he had a weird expression.

'I thought you had a mental breakdown?'

I suddenly thought about the possibility that he might be a seed sown by Lee Jihye.

Of course, it was an absurd hypothesis, but his reaction was bizarre enough that I had to think seriously about it. I wondered if she had any reason to draw attention to herself just to launch the New Continental Protection and Management Committee.

'Are you aiming for something else? Or are you taking orders?'

The Republic and the Union protected the Song Villain, but it wasn't without risk. Exposing himself and moving meant he had to consider that he could always face a penalty.

He might be thinking of turning the continent's hero into an enemy. There was also a possibility of dying asleep.

That didn't make me feel that there was anyone behind him. There was no guarantee that Lucifer wouldn't be there, but I at least had no evidence of demons or others being involved with him.

Although his intention to take the place of Lee Kiyoung might seem to be his purpose, he had no reason to do so unless power was what he aimed for.

My thoughts became complicated when I saw our guys crying out loud like that.

Kim Hyunsung was also looking at the place where he left as if he felt the same.

'Fuck, let's give up. Actually, I don't even need to be curious...'

No matter what Kim Hyunsung thought, whether he really was for the continent or not had nothing to do with me.

In fact, even if that bastard was the last remaining hope of the continent, my stance remained unchanged. It was an undeniable fact that Song Villain clearly crossed the line.

Kim Hyunsung was walking slowly.

He clenched his fists as if he had made up his mind, and I didn't want to even look at his face at the thought that he might betray me.

Of course, I knew he wouldn't because of his attribute...

'We don't know what can happen.'

I couldn't dedicate too much to someone.

I had to always think about the worst and act.

If Kim Hyunsung got rid of me, fuck, what would I do?

'What do I do? I'll die.'

It was then that a voice came from behind.

"That's fun."

"Long time no see, Belial."

"How is it? That human... It seems like someone who looks quite usable appeared."

'Usable, my ass.'

"You must have been mistaken."

"He might be useful somewhere."

He had to be ruled out, regardless. Honestly, I wasn't sure if Song Villain made a big enough mistake in order to face a miserable end, but I wasn't in a position to judge that in the first place.
