Bam! Baaaak!! Bam!!!

Every time I hit the guy’s head hard, it felt like the stress that had just built up was going down in real time.

“Ah …

“Oh, it’s more difficult than I thought.”

I like the screaming sound~

To the rhythm of the villain’s widely resonating sound, I spurred on my swing of the bat.

“Aaah!! Ouch!!!”

Looking at him looking normal even after hitting his head like this, I guess he really is a person with supernatural powers.

He has the strength of an adult male who even exercises, and he doesn’t faint even when he is hit in a vital spot with a heavy bat.

Looking at all that screaming, it doesn’t make sense unless it’s some kind of power.

But he’s just so tough, he can’t even put up a proper fight.

‘That means it’s a good sandbag to hit.’

Baaaak!!

“Stop!!”

In the midst of such one-sided beatings, I turned my head when I heard a sound behind me.

Heroes who are looking at themselves strongly.

Just a moment ago, they were just watching the trash heroes chewing popcorn.

“Hey, I don’t know who you are, but is that enough?”

“That’s right! What you’re doing right now is clearly obstruction of official duties and violence!”

Oh my.

I looked at the heroes with a look of disbelief, with my leg crossed and the bat slung over my shoulder.

‘When this guy was causing a fuss, he was just being rambunctious…’

I guess it’s because they want to avoid disciplinary action.

There’s a world of difference between taking a long time to simply subdue a villain and having a non-hero suddenly show up and interfere with the heroes.

And in the latter situation, the hero loses the target he’s trying to subdue and gets killed by an unidentified guy?

Unless you were a fairly capable hero, it was clear that some action would be taken from the higher-ups.

“Ugh…ugh..”

A man whose voice is filled with pain.

When they saw the man’s appearance, the heroes looked somewhat relieved.

“..If you stop here, you won’t be punished legally.”

So, the hero extends his hand as if to tell the villain to hand it over to him.

“Huh.”

I felt somehow dumbfounded by that confident attitude.

Don’t you think that if they had been afraid of the law in the first place, they wouldn’t have done something like this?

However, the hero continued speaking in a confident voice, as if he did not mean to simply threaten.

“I’ve heard of them. For some reason, they are not active as official heroes, but illegal heroes who punish villains while operating in the shadows. They call themselves Vigilantes, right?”

‘I guess you’ve been thinking hard to figure out my identity in a short period of time.’

But it was a completely wrong guess.

Vigilante.

Direct translation: vigilante group.

Among the forces I mentioned before, there were those who belonged to the third force, like the researchers.

‘Being expelled from the association, having a criminal record, or simply lacking skills, etc.’

Those who, for whatever reason, failed to become official heroes, but instead devoted themselves to fighting villains in places that heroes could not reach.

Although it was illegal for non-heroes to kill villains, they were a strange group that cared nothing for and helped people.

‘If you really think of me as a Vigilante, then that kind of attitude isn’t strange.’

Vigilantes are ultimately those who catch villains to ensure the safety of the citizens.

That was the public perception.

“If you hand it over to us, we’ll clean it up neatly.”

Vigilante, who only kills villains in a fist-fighting manner, naturally has a hard time recovering from the damage caused by villains like the Association.

So if I’m truly a noble and good Vigilante who cares for the citizens, then it’s right to hand this guy over.

but.

“I don’t like it.”

“Yeah, I knew you’d make that judgment. Hurry up and villain… Wait, what?”

The hero looked at me with a blank expression, as if he hadn’t expected me to give such an answer.

Sorry, I’m not a Vigilante.

“Why should I… No, why should I do that?”

Since I’m already disguised, I should change my tone a bit.

There is no need to be polite now.

“But, you are Vigilante…”

“I think there are a few things you guys are misunderstanding.”

I walked over with a crooked posture and stepped on the villain’s back.

“One. I am not a group of vigilantes or navalists.”

And then, for a moment, raise your bat towards the heroes.

“Two. I’m not a kid who only hits villains. I hit kids who I feel are assholes.”

I quickly took a stance by surprise and struck the head of the villain lying beneath me with great force.

The villain shuddered for a moment, then quickly relaxed.

“……”

“Set. And now I think you guys are fucking fucked up.”

So if you’re going to attack, attack and get out quickly.

Because I have to take Gayeon out.

***

“Ugh..”

“Take a look..”

“I understand why you guys didn’t approach the villain carelessly.”

These guys are freaking weak.

It’s not that I didn’t train, but it’s clear that my skills would be greatly lacking if I didn’t use this ability.

What happened was that these guys were weaker than me, even without using my powers.

‘Anyway, let’s fry it now.’

After quickly gathering my thoughts, I looked up slightly and glanced at the citizens who were pointing their cell phones at me.

‘I was a little confused at first, but when I think about it, it’s not so bad.’

Anyway, I was planning to create a new fake identity soon and gain recognition like this.

A disguised identity that has a certain degree of recognition, but on the other hand, no information is available.

I’m not saying that I was really annoyed and just barged in and made a fuss.

‘No matter what method was used to get Gayeon out, we would have been able to bring her in.’

I glanced at Gayeon.

“…Brother?”

“Shh.”

I smiled and whispered quietly to Gayeon.

‘If you release Ms. Gayeon, please come and pick me up in about 5 minutes.’

‘huh.’

‘And you’ll have to explain to me exactly what happened.’

‘……’

Gayeon looks at me with a look of concern on her face.

So, did you think I would just let it go like this?

You’re going to get scolded later.

“Hey, shall we go back now?”

“..yeap.”

I smiled and patted Gayeon’s head.

“Wait! Who are you again..!”

“Hello~”

Ting-! Tiring-! Ting!!

Pusheee-

Ignoring the approaching Chise, he made a smoke bomb from his pocket and immediately detonated it.

Anyway, this status wasn’t created to make friends with the heroes, so there’s no need to talk to them.

‘Let’s run away quickly and change into Kangian’s clothes.’

He left the doll behind, which was gradually becoming blurry, and walked away.

***

“……”

A quiet and old-looking room.

A man closed his eyes and took a deep breath, as if meditating for a moment.

A room where the only sound is the man’s breathing.

“……”

The man’s mind gradually became hazy, his whole body lost its strength, and his posture as he sat on the chair became sloppy.

“Keue …

That moment when the meditation that had seemed so pious gradually degenerated into a nap.

BANG!!

“Boss!!”

“Ugh!”

A young man burst through the door, snapping the man back to his senses.

The man frowns when he realizes that it is a young man who has entered his room.

“..Who comes in during meditation without knocking?”

“Oh my, what about meditation? It looks like you’re just taking a nap.”

“..umm,umm!”

At the young man’s words that seemed to be nonsense, the man coughed in embarrassment and changed the subject.

“..So what brings you here, Secretary.”

“Would you like to take a look at this, Boss?”

The young man, who was called a secretary, took out a tablet from his arms and showed a video.

“What is this?”

“This is a recently uploaded video, and there’s a guy in it that looks interesting.”

It looks fun.

It was a term that a man’s secretary would use only for people he wanted to recruit into his group.

“Really?”

The man became interested in those words that came out of his secretary’s mouth after a long time and started watching the video on his tablet.

The location is an amusement park.

A villain and heroes were facing off.

Is the hostage a kid who looks like he’s in middle school?

“The villain was very interested in the hostage, so it would have been easy to catch him with a surprise attack…”

However, the heroes in the video did not take any action.

Rather than simply being cautious, I was scared.

The heroes in the video did not act rashly because they were afraid that they might be put in danger.

“Ugh, how come there are only heroes like this these days? Even in my time…ugh.”

“Stop talking like an old fart again and watch the video, boss.”

The man started to focus on the video again after being nagged by his secretary.

While the confrontation between the villain and the hero continued in the video, one guy appeared.

– If you are twice as careful, people will die.

A man with a mask shaped like a monster’s teeth and a long, sturdy-looking club slung over his shoulder.

“Huh?”

The guy who had been walking slowly approached the villain without a moment’s hesitation and swung his club.

“You’re much better than those stuffy heroes.”

I wonder where he received his training, he seems to have quite a good posture.

Their judgment of the situation and their ability to execute are also much better than those of the heroes who were just trembling in the corner.

– If you hand it over to us, we’ll clean it up neatly.

– I don’t like it.

And when someone tries to take credit for his achievements without any conscience, he flatly rejects them.

– I think you guys are fucking shit right now.

“Poo-ha-ha!! This guy is really funny!”

A mindset that eliminates anything that gets in your way, whether you’re a hero or a villain!

And yet, we could see that he had the minimum level of morality we seek in that he saved a child and left a citizen who might have bothered him alone.

A man smiled with satisfaction at the useful item his secretary brought him after a long time.

He got up, poured himself a bottle of wine, and watched the video again.

– One. I am not a Vigilante or a Nabal or any other group.

“Yeah, it’s not Vigilante now, right?”

But, wouldn’t it be okay if we just keep going forward?

“Secretary.”

“Yes, boss.”

“Can you find that?”

“Let’s find out while the boss is napping. What.”

“Haha!! Then please. It seems like you’re a nice guy after a long time.”

A man stood up from his seat, gulping down his wine.

The boss of the illegal hero group, Vigilante, smiled ferociously at his secretary.
