The Crazy Villain Regains His Sanity

Episode 334

Hyuna’s answer, which I thought was going to say something big, was simpler than I thought.

“Because you are human.”

“What is that?”

“Human life is not long.”

Those are simple but powerful words. I snorted.

“Are you saying you want to say that you will die after not being able to fight hard for a long time?”

“huh.”

“….”

Speaking so confidently, I was the one left speechless.

“You have no idea. For us who live forever, 100 or 200 years is not a very long time. Within that time, a transcendent person may appear and stand on equal footing with us. “But it means something different for us and other beings of a different species to live forever.”

“In the end, you can’t trust him because he’s not a divine beast.”

“You can look at it that way. “That’s the thinking of ordinary divine beasts.”

“Contrary to your strong words, you said you had no intention of overdoing it.”

“Unnecessary conflicts are bound to cause bigger repercussions. Unlike the guy who calls himself a god or the thunderbird, I think it would be ideal to minimize interference.”

In the end, it seems that divine beasts are similar to human society. There are strong-minded people who try to highlight Shinsoo’s purity as much as possible, and there are people like Hyuna who think it is better to minimize intervention.

However, when I see that it is only 100 to 200 years, I suddenly feel like I want to experience how long that time will feel.

You can think of this as a method to use if something goes wrong.

“I think I have a different opinion from Yongyong.”

[Why am I there?]

Yongyong, who was watching awkwardly, protested, but I turned my attention off and looked at Hyuna.

“is not it?”

“that’s right. “The dragon is concerned about non-divine beings having power.”

[Hey, why are you saying that there?]

Hyuna said with a stern expression to Yongyong, who was screaming.

“You’re next to this person and you don’t even know that? If you tell the truth, it will be easier in the future. “What on earth are you looking at?”

[That’s true, but… it’s because you don’t know how persistent that person is teasing…]

Yongyong, who had a sullen expression on his face, revealed that he had no intention of interfering further.

Hyuna continued speaking.

“But there’s nothing wrong with dragons. “When the dragon took on a physical body, there was a monster that coveted its power.”

“I heard it.”

I put that monster’s heart to good use a few times.

But I guess there was a deeper story than I thought.

“It wasn’t something that would be finished easily. “At that time, the dragon saw firsthand how corrupted a being who did not realize the weight of power could become when it gained power.”

It dates back to when Yongyong awakened into a divine beast.

After the appearance of the monster, Shinsoo, who had no real existence, had the opportunity to gain substance. In the process, there are divine beasts that chose eternal extinction, and there are divine beasts that were born as transcendent beings with a physical body.

Yongyong was a god who made that choice quite late. And the monster that coveted the neglected essence of the divine beast discovers the essence of the divine beast.

I thought Yongyong discovered and destroyed the monster that coveted the essence of the divine beast, but Hyuna corrected me.

“Due to the late dragon’s choice, the monster had absorbed more than half of the divine beast’s essence.”

As a result, Yongyong had no choice but to engage in a bloody struggle for his existence.

Yongyong is the one who wins after a bloody battle. However, the memories of that time were bound to become a wound that could not be washed away.

Beings with power without responsibility are dangerous. This is Yongyong’s idea. It means that he is stronger than Hyuna, but is controlled by Hyuna.

There is something to point out here.

“In the end, wasn’t it a stupid case where Ji almost died because of his indecisiveness?”

[hey! No matter how open your mouth is, you still say that…]

“That’s not wrong.”

[Yah! You have to take my side!]

“Because it’s true.”

[There really is no one on my side. [What did I do wrong?]

Just looking at it, that idiot seemed to follow Hyuna’s words even if he had his own opinion, so I thought I could just move on.

[This is why I tried not to have anything to do with that person.]

“Even if that idiot came to think like that because of something he brought on himself, it seems like the important thing is the opinions of the divine beasts. What is the ratio of hard-line guys?”

“In total, it’s a little less than 70%.”

“But there are probably only a few people who would risk their existence to put it into practice.”

“that’s right. “That’s what has made it so balanced.”

Although he insists on the purity of Shinsoo, he has no intention of risking his own existence to put it into practice. Although it may seem selfish, it was also an excellent self-sacrifice.

Or, it could be that the critical point has not been crossed enough to greatly offend one’s intentions.

“Are self-proclaimed gods like that?”

“that’s right.”

“What is it?”

“I don’t know that.”

Hyuna said that it is rare for gods to interact with each other.

It is said that if a nearby area is used as territory, exchanges may occur, but in the case of Shinsoo, who has a strong ego, it rarely leads to good relationships.

“The reason you and Yongyong are close is because you helped me in some way.”

[….]

“I’ll keep that a secret for Yongyong.”

Despite that, Yongyong looks very tired. In any case, it is said that there is not much communication between the divine beasts, and the existence of the basis of the divine beasts is kept a complete secret.

“Then the ultra-hardliners of the divine beasts are already deeply involved in the human world.”

A representative example would be a guy who calls himself God. Thunderbirds are probably similar.

“that’s right.”

Even Hyuna couldn’t deny that. So, the guys who are annoying to my eyes have been decided?

“Is their goal to rule the world?”

After hesitating for a moment, Hyuna nodded.

“Although the gods are transcendent beings, it is humans who rule the world. “There are those who think that only by controlling that person can our position be strengthened.”

Representative examples would be the Thunderbird and the self-proclaimed god.

“But their way of ruling is difficult to succeed. Humans are weak yet strong. “Unless you go to the front and kill everyone, you won’t be able to achieve your goal of dominating.”

“So what about you?”

“I… think it’s better to just wait and see how it goes.”

It was a much gentler direction than I thought.

“I like human culture. There are many creative and fun things that divine beasts cannot do. Just transforming into a human and enjoying it is enough reason to maintain human existence. “It’s not good to control it artificially.”

“In the end, you are thinking of it as part of having fun.”

“Isn’t that enough?”

“It’s enough.”

Because Hyuna was also a Shinsoo in the end. From that divine perspective, humans are nothing more than mere insignificant things.

Rather, it is highly likely that Hyuna’s perspective is the one that treats humans the best.

“Now that I think about it.”

“huh.”

“I thought it was strange that they were convinced just because I was human. “100 to 200 years is enough time for me to increase my power and hunt down all the divine beasts.”

No, if you have the strength, it will take much less than that.

“Is there another reason?”

“there is.”

“I want to hear it.”

“Of course, this doesn’t apply to all humans. “The reason I acknowledge you is because I know the weight of your power.”

“I said that?”

It was the most novel sound since returning to the past.

What I heard all along was that power was being abused too much. If you were a strong person, you would be told to be more self-respectful and use it for meaningful purposes.

Of course, I didn’t even pretend to hear that. My strength is a result of what I have gained. Deciding how to use it is entirely up to me and I am responsible for it.

Perhaps that’s why Hyuna’s words were unexpected.

“I have never seen anyone more aware of their power than you are.”

“….”

“Think about it carefully. “I guess I’m right.”

Hyuna spoke as if she could see through everything.

As I was about to refute it, I remembered the difference between the person I was when I had the hematoma and the person I am now.

Hematoma was a villain who lost control and destroyed everything, but now I am moving without control, but I am recognized as the world’s strongest superhuman.

What is the difference between the two?

If you look at the fundamental aspect, there is no significant difference. I killed the guys who attacked me and killed the same guys who were going to kill me.

The only thing that has changed is that I have come back to my senses.

Hyuna might think that my return to sanity is because I know the weight of power.

Surely it might seem like I’ve come back to my senses.

It is indeed the keen insight of a divine beast that can see through my sanity.

“There is something to point out.”

“That would be correct. You know better than anyone else the weight of your power. “So I’m not worried.”

“Since when did you notice?”

“From the beginning.”

“That’s amazing.”

“Why have this much?”

I never would have thought that the person who realized that I was sane before anyone else was Shinsoo, not a fellow human being.

I guess I misunderstood Hyuna.

I couldn’t believe that a guy with such bright eyes had another agenda.

“But other humans are different.”

I came back to my senses and realized the weight of my power, but since the strong ones had no control system, it was common for them to go crazy.

Of course, if such a crazy person caught my eye, I would kill anyone on sight.

“know. But I don’t think that person will become as strong as you.”

“That won’t be easy either.”

“huh. So, don’t worry.”

Hyuna’s fundamental belief was that there would never be another person with strength like me.

“But what if the gods give us strength?”

“…It is possible to overcome human limitations.”

“That would be quite annoying.”

“You have to be on guard. But not many people can endure and digest it.”

“is it.”

In that case, I thought I wouldn’t have to worry too much about that.

Speaking of which, I’m thinking of taking Hyuna to Leviathan.

“When the time comes, let’s go to the Atlantic Ocean together.”

“why?”

“This guy is full of hostility toward Shinsoo, so we need to soften him up. “I think I can be of strength to you if circumstances arise.”

“Not bad.”

The rest is up to Hyuna and Leviathan.

If even a relatively gentle guy doesn’t get along, I won’t have to interfere anymore.

“let’s go.”

[I’m going too!]

“Why you?”

[Why am I leaving it out!]

“Wasn’t it negative about Leviathan?”

[no it’s not! Hyuna is going too, so there’s no reason why I can’t go.]

But I don’t like it.

“Let’s take him. “I will try to control it well.”

“If that’s the case.”

[Wow, now I’m treated like a total troublemaker.]

I headed to the Atlantic Ocean with Hyuna, who obediently agreed, and Yongyong, who reluctantly followed along.

At first, the guarded mood eased slightly with my appearance.

Leviathan appeared a moment later and trembled when he saw Hyuna and Yongyong.

[Is it because you brought these divine beasts to see the end with me?]

“No, to show you that there are divine beasts that are not particularly interested in eliminating you.”

[You are a divine beast, but you are not eliminating me?]

“All the divine beasts in the world are not as interested in you as you think.”

There are so many things to enjoy and care about in the world, so why bother about Leviathan?

Leviathan, who listened to me and looked at me with a fresh look, accepted the offer.

[I will guide you.]

That’s how I and the two divine beasts were able to enter Leviathan’s space.

* * *

The reason I brought Leviathan was to increase the stability of the soon-to-be secured Atlantic route.

Even if you had a conversation with me, there would be nothing to calm a guy who throws fits whenever he hears about Shinsoo, like showing him that there are also non-hostile Shinsoo.

I thought that alone would be sufficient success.

however.

“Oh, really? I’ve been there too! “Are you saying that humans’ ideas are truly ingenious?”

“I saw that too and thought it was great.”

“Same as me. “I never thought I’d meet someone with the same tastes, but it’s amazing!”

“So do i.”

“Let’s go on a trip together next time! I’ll make a plan.”

“I’m looking forward to it.”

“….”

I was speechless as I saw a divine beast and a monster fighting in front of my eyes.

[I don’t know, you did it all.]
