Chapter Index

    Iria has always followed the iron rules she set while working as a hero.

    And thanks to that, he was able to maintain his position as second place in the S class and his sense of justice.

    There were a total of three iron rules she created, all of which contained her own beliefs.

    The first iron rule is to help people in trouble first rather than eradicate villains.

    Second, defeat the villains, but do not commit the same killings as them.

    Up to this point, it was pretty ordinary values.

    No different from other heroes… … .

    However, the third iron law was a little different.

    The third iron rule. Do not use “speech” except for villains.

    This was a shackle on myself.

    Of course, it didn’t matter when dealing with villains,

    It was not easy to endure verbal abuse in everyday life.

    Anything was possible with just one word.

    Whether it’s human relationships, power, or capital… … .

    If you were an ordinary person, it would never have been easy to resist this sweet temptation.

    Nevertheless, Iria has especially tried to strictly adhere to the third iron law. Because it was a unique skill that could be exploited as much as one wanted.

    He pledged to use this great power only for peace. And as a hero, he has been thoroughly controlled to maintain his sense of justice.

    The moment I used words against civilians for personal reasons, I felt like I would lose my essence as a hero.

    It seemed like he would become a villain and become corrupted.

    I lost my entire family to the villain.

    That’s why it shouldn’t happen. It can never be like that.

    It was Iria who had endured well until now with this one belief.

    But as of today, this iron rule has finally been broken.

    “… Please join us. I believe that the president of the association will understand me.”

    Iria mutters after taking off her gas mask.

    Although I was able to control my speech,

    She didn’t.

    He was speaking properly and making eye contact with Park Mak-rye.

    In the end, he had no choice but to lash out at Park Mak-rye, whom he had relied on and respected so much to protect his wife.

    I wanted to avoid using words no matter what happened, but there was really no other way. Park Mak-rye has already opened a Pandora’s box that should not be touched.

    He tried to ignore Shi Hu’s true identity and thought of him as his younger brother, but Park Mak-rye eventually discovered Si Hu’s true identity.

    He was the leader of the former Villain Alliance.

    ‘Everything is for Sihu. Not for me… … !’

    Iria, who spoke to Park Mak-rye, tried to allay her feelings of guilt. They say he had no choice but to use verbal language for the benefit of the public.

    In reality, there was no other option other than this method.

    Aside from his usual eccentric personality, Park Mak-rye had a strong sense of justice, so there was no way to persuade her other than words.

    ‘Could it have been possible to subdue the president of the association through a simple battle instead of words?’

    No, it is absolutely impossible.

    A being that cannot be defeated simply by strength alone.

    It was an unwinnable fight to begin with.

    Even Park Bi-hwa, who poured all his effort into it, was impossible.

    Even Park Mak-rye was still moving briskly.

    It was foolish to wage a war of attrition against such a superhuman figure. Even if he was lucky enough to defeat Park Mak-rye, Shi Hu’s true identity would not have been washed away.

    It was obvious that persuasion would not work either.

    If I killed myself, I would have done it.

    She was a woman who never compromised when it came to deviating from her beliefs.

    Therefore, I had no choice but to use verbal language.

    ‘A mayor is a mayor, but I can’t lose the president of the association. And if you are the president of the association… … .’

    ㅡSharp!

    “Ugh… ! Yeah, yeah… … . I understand your feelings well, Leah.”

    Park Mak-rye, who was caught by the remarks, stumbles for a moment and gets down on one knee. And then Park Mak-rye, who had been repulsed by words, began to move again.

    Because it was an order that he could not accept based on his beliefs, it put a strain on his brain for a moment.

    “President of the Association… ? Are you okay?”

    “Well, yeah… Maybe it’s because I’m getting older, but even just moving for a little while is quite difficult. by the way… … .”

    Park Mak-rye, who was clutching her pounding head, turns her head. Towards Moran and Han Si-hoo, who were watching all this happening right next to them.

    “… You guys are colleagues who will be working together in a guild or something in the future, right?”

    “… … ?”

    Suddenly, Yoo Hae-jin and Park Mak-rye’s tone and expression make Han Si-hoo barely able to speak.

    “… Colleagues at this age, chuckle!”

    -Sleep, clang!

    Park Mak-rye suddenly bursts into laughter as he leads the sword. As soon as she sheathed the sword, the murderous look on her face faded away like a lie.

    It feels like the pressure that was pressing the skin of my entire body has disappeared.

    “Cluck click… ! I’m sorry. I never thought I was truly surprised.”

    Park Mak-rye’s face, caught in the conversation, was just showing a kind and warm smile as if she was meeting her grandchild on a holiday.

    ㅡChuck!

    Park Mak-rye even gives his hand instead of his sword this time. He was shaking Sihu’s hand as a sign of good luck in the future. Still maintaining a friendly smile.

    With just one word, a person changed 180 degrees.

    This was also the reason Iria refrained from speaking. She was just looking at Park Mak-rye from the side with a bitter expression.

    It was uncomfortable to break the iron rule, but it was also embarrassing in many ways to reveal the unique talent that had been hidden in front of everyone.

    “ji, what happened now… … ?”

    Everyone was witnessing this situation.

    Sihu, I originally knew this, but

    It was a huge shock to Park Bi-hwa.

    “Sihu oppa… ? J-what is this… … ?!”

    Park Bi-hwa and Moran were completely unaware of Iria’s second unique story, so they could only make shocked expressions and were unable to say anything.

    If it had been Park’s usual story, I would have questioned Iria right away. What did you do to your grandmother?

    It felt like something was going wrong when my grandmother, who I couldn’t stop even with all my might, became so gentle with just one word.

    But on the one hand, it was true that things ended on a positive note without bloodshed. So, no matter what, I thought it was fortunate at first.

    “Ah, thank you.”

    On the other hand, Han Si-hoo, who understood the entire situation, immediately accepted Park Mak-rye’s handshake. As if nothing had happened.

    I grabbed Park Mak-rye’s wrinkled hand and shook it. We greeted each other very normally, as if we had just met.

    An ideal picture was being drawn just as Iria had hoped.

    ㅡAaaahhh… !

    However, there was something strange about the state of Park Mak-rye holding hands. Suddenly, his grip tightened and he fell shakily.

    Although his face maintained a gentle smile,

    She was shaking quite violently.

    As if this situation was unacceptable.

    “Huh? Tongue, president of the association?”

    “President of the Association? Let go now.”

    “That’s right… Ah, I understand.”

    When Iria, who sensed something strange, used verbal language again, Park Mak-rye let go of her hand. It was difficult the first time, but I had no hesitation the second time.

    The reason it ended up like this was because he had to make Park Mak-rye completely on his side.

    “Maybe it’s because this old man is getting older, but he seems to be getting more and more tremors these days.”

    Park Mak-rye defuses the situation with a slightly awkward tone in an awkward atmosphere. Even though she said that, she was still clenching her fists in the air.

    It was a time when everything came to an unnatural end.

    “ Kwahahah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ahhh !!! ”

    ㅡPatter-patter… !

    Suddenly, explosions are heard from all directions.

    Smoke rises, shaking the earth.

    There was dust from the explosion, but

    A thick cloud of cloudy, thick smoke had spread over the area.

    What is “ suddenly? Explosion sound?”

    “Oppa, are you okay?! Take my hand-!”

    “Grandma… ?! First, towards me… … !”

    “Hmm? It’s a secret story… ! By the way, why are you like that right now?!”

    Everyone is buzzing and embarrassed by the sudden situation.

    In particular, Park Mak-rye seemed to have forgotten everything that had just happened. Naturally, he was astonished to see Park Bi-hwa half-naked with his uniform burned.

    ㅡTtogak, ttogak, ttogak… !

    In the midst of confusion, the sound of footsteps is heard.

    As they were taken aback by the thick smoke screen,

    As if waiting, the sound of high-heeled shoes can be heard through the smoke screen.

    And at the same time, a black figure sways in the distance beyond the smoke screen.

    “Ohhoho-! Everyone got together nicely as planned!”

    A woman’s voice slowly approaches along with the sound of shoes. As an unidentified woman walks out, raising her voice, mysteriously, the thick smoke gradually clears.

    “Who, who?”

    As Sihu said, he was the first person I met. But judging by his appearance, he didn’t seem to be a hero at least.

    A woman wearing a black uniform and high-heeled boots. An unidentified woman was leisurely approaching them.

    Holding a barbed whip in one hand.

    “Chiit… ! I never thought it would show up earlier than expected!”

    “Peony? Do you know someone?”

    “I know! This is the guy who put us in this situation right now-?!”

    “Well, that means… … ?”

    It was like that. This guy was the leader of the new villain alliance, the Empress, a disaster-level villain.

    He is the one who overthrew the existing villain alliance.

    “Ohhoho! Peony, it’s been a while. You gathered us together according to my plan, so now if we just take care of you, the Hero Association will be no different from our villains.”

    The Empress, wearing a short-brimmed formal hat, had bright red hair and bloody eyes.

    And her eyes were staring intently at Han Si-hoo.

    “I never thought the contents of that letter were real… … .”

    “So why didn’t you listen to me-?!”

    “Who would believe such a flimsy letter… … ?!”

    “Ha, everyone is noisy.”

    ㅡWhirik, voila!

    The Empress treats Shihu and Peony’s noise as noise and slams her whip on the floor. When she whips the whip, all the smoke from the smoke screen that was still spread is blown away by the wind pressure alone.

    “Wow, I never thought all the villains would gather in one place… … .”

    “Grandma? Just in case, behind me… … .”

    When the smoke cleared, numerous villains were surrounding them from all directions. Everyone looked like they were wearing construction worker uniforms.

    From the beginning, he had infiltrated the Academy in disguise.

    As soon as the situation is resolved, another situation arises.

    It’s literally a mountain beyond a mountain.

    “If you just cooperate with what I say, I will spare your life. Because the only thing I’m interested in right now is the Dark Lord.”

    “Qu… ! Why are you chasing our master so persistently?!”

    When the Empress pointed to Hansihu with the handle of her whip, Moran, who was next to her, got angry and asked. It was an anxious voice, as if he was afraid that his wife would be taken away.

    “Do you call that a horse? Dark Lord, how much I want to eat you up… ♥ With this in front of me, I don’t think I can take it anymore.”

    The Empress, who stopped at a distance, licked her lips with her tongue and smiled bitterly.

    It seemed as if she would attack Han Si-hoo at any moment.
