Chapter Index

    thud!

    “I am ……. You know my nickname, right?”

    thud!

    “You can’t do this to your fans. Let’s talk face to face, we.”

    Thump thump!

    “Do you know how hard it was for me?”

    “Ugh……”

    Sarah was leaning against the cabinet in a crouched position, covering her ears.

    The sound of a man speaking while knocking on the door of a soundproof booth could be heard faintly.

    “Open the door quickly!”

    Boom!

    “Aaaah…!”

    The impact of the door being kicked in from the outside traveled through the cabinet to Sarah’s back.

    The man may have lost his temper after breaking into Sarah’s house, but even though he was talking to her in a calm voice, he suddenly became agitated and started a riot.

    Clink!

    When he couldn’t open the door easily, he moved into the living room and started breaking things.

    After confirming that the man was not visible outside the door for a while, Sarah took advantage of the opportunity and picked up her smartphone to call the police again.

    “Hello? This is the person who reported it earlier because of the doorbell…”

    -Yes, patrol personnel are on the way now.

    “Ji, a stalker has suddenly entered the house and is hiding…”

    Sarah, who was explaining the situation to the police, felt eyes on her and slowly raised her head.

    And before she knew it, she returned to the glass door again and made eye contact with the man who was staring at her with his face pressed against his face.

    In his hand was a long sword of unknown origin.

    Tuk.

    -hello? Reporter, speak up! Reporter!

    The voice of the police officer, who had noticed an unusual situation, continued to be heard from the dropped smartphone, but Sarah was in no mood to respond.

    Seeing Sarah’s completely frozen appearance, the man raised the corner of his mouth, smiled brightly, and hit the presser foot of the hammer in his hand.

    puck! Damn it!

    “Aaagh!”

    The tempered glass door, which was intact even after being pounded with fists and kicked with feet, shattered into pieces with one strong swing of a hammer.

    The man removed the small glass shards that were falling with a hammer and pushed the cabinet blocking the entrance into the soundproof booth.

    “A little…! I’m going in!”

    “Go away! Go away!”

    Sarah desperately pushed the cabinet using her whole body, but she was unable to defeat the man who was one head taller than her with her physical strength.

    Eventually, the man who pushed away the obstacle entered the soundproof booth.

    Sarah backed into a corner to get as far away from him as possible.

    The man’s eyebrows and mouth were grotesquely distorted, as if he was happy to finally meet Sarah face to face.

    “So why… aren’t you listening to me? It’s not like I asked a difficult request…!”

    “Ugh…!”

    “If you’re doing a broadcast… shouldn’t you be dating…? Viewers are so funny…! No? If you say sorry now, I will forgive you.”

    Even when he spoke politely, he became emotionally agitated and scolded him informally. He was clearly a mental patient.

    He said that and extended his hand to the subject who broke into Sarah’s house without permission and threatened her with tools.

    Sarah closed her eyes tightly.

    “……”

    As time passed and she did not feel anything touching her body, she slowly opened her eyes.

    The man who had stretched out his arms right in front of Sarah was struggling, caught by the hem of his clothes.

    “Profit…! Let go of this! What are you!”

    Minho was standing behind the man, holding on to his clothes.

    He was dressed in loose clothes as if he had just been at home, and for some reason his head was sticking out like a lion.

    Even the white socks were dirty and covered in dirt.

    “Ha… are you okay?”

    Sera looked blankly at Minho, who came running to her in disarray to help her.

    ***

    ‘Damn, I didn’t even have my shoes on because I jumped right out the window.’

    My socks were dirty and my hair was sticking out in all directions because I rode my bike with all my might without a helmet.

    Still, the situation was so urgent, and the psychotic stalker had already come in wearing shoes with dirt on them, so it wasn’t obvious that his socks were a little dirty.

    ‘What about the head… I’ll just have to deal with this bastard first and then touch it.’

    “Let go of this! This bastard…! ”

    I looked at the stalker struggling with the hem of his clothes in my hand with pitiful eyes.

    He’s just holding on to his clothes, but he’s twisting his whole body on his own and going crazy.

    Looking at him with his scattered hair and untrimmed beard growing uncontrollably, I could tell he was a guy with some kind of problem, but I thought he was acting like a stalker without being noticed.

    I turned and pushed him in the opposite direction of Sarah.

    Pop!

    “Lee, Lee… Lee Min-ho…! Even if it weren’t for you… Sarah can be happier without you!”

    Stalker, who was pushed away, dropped the hammer he was holding and stumbled. He barely managed to keep his balance, looked at me, and muttered that.

    In this psychopath’s mind, he seems to be playing a fantasy of the broadcast being completely ruined and suffering due to Sarah getting involved with him.

    ‘Rather, I think I have a significant share in Sarah’s recent growth…’

    Still, perhaps because the sturdy man was blocking his path, he didn’t blindly rush at Sarah like he did just now.

    I turned my back and looked at Sarah sitting on the floor. Sarah’s body seemed to have lost all strength, and she was leaning back against the wall.

    I extended my hand to her who looked up at me blankly.

    Seueueuu

    I went halfway down and pulled the cardigan draped over my arms back up to my shoulders. Then he said as he adjusted his clothes.

    “I’m here, so don’t worry. Did you report it to the police?”

    “Yes, yes… thank you…”

    Sarah, who was looking back and forth with an embarrassed expression, probably because she suddenly touched my clothes, looked behind me, opened her eyes wide and shouted.

    “Minho, behind you!”

    I slowly turned my head and checked behind me. I saw the stalker running towards me with both hands outstretched.

    Is he angry because they ignore him as if he doesn’t exist?

    It felt like he was trying to grab me and take me away from Sarah.

    Wow!

    Fight!

    “Oh…!”

    “Ha… These are my favorite clothes…”

    I held him still to see what he was going to do, but all I could hear was the sound of stitches popping from his t-shirt.

    I’ve long since passed the point where I can’t even budge when a guy like this whines.

    ‘How should I do this…’

    I thought as I watched the stalker holding on to his clothes in an ugly way.

    To be honest, this stalker was more annoying to me than the villain in Namhira or the bandit in Tuseonhyeophaengrok.

    The ones I traveled to had much stronger bodies, so they were able to withstand to some extent even if I attacked them without any worries.

    And even if something goes wrong and you end up getting killed, you are praised for doing a good job.

    In comparison, this guy was an opponent that could be killed with just one hit, without any exaggeration.

    Although he is a bit big, he has completely untrained body and has sloppy movements.

    It was clear that if he reflexively threw his fist out, he would immediately become a murderer in real life.

    From my perspective, he wasn’t much different from a crazy guy who jumps into a dump truck to commit suicide.

    The person who jumped in was so out of his mind that he didn’t even notice that there was a dump truck.

    “Keuuu…! What… are you cheating on me!”

    The stalker seemed to have decided that he couldn’t get rid of me with physical force.

    He let go of the stretched shirt and stepped back. And then he lowered his posture as if he was going to attack.

    I said looking at the guy.

    “Do it in moderation. Anyway, if the police come soon, it will be over for you.”

    “Police…? That’s right, the police are coming! I haven’t even had a proper conversation with Sarah yet…!”

    It was said to be merciful, but the stalker muttered like a crazy person and took something out of his pocket.

    It was a kitchen knife with a black blade.

    “Then search quickly!”

    The stalker swung the knife at me without hesitation.

    “Ha……”

    ‘Should I just kill him?’

    I thought as I saw the kitchen knife drawn diagonally toward my stomach.

    Taking a kitchen knife out of one’s pocket means that it was a tool prepared in advance, so wouldn’t Sarah’s life have been in danger?

    Strength naturally entered my fist.

    ‘Maybe it would be better to just cut his head cleanly here…’

    “Aaagh!”

    At that time, Sarah, who was hiding behind me, saw the kitchen knife and screamed.

    ‘…I almost did it because I was so angry at that moment.’

    No matter how disgusting a stalker you are, suddenly seeing someone die in front of your eyes would be perfect for trauma.

    And Sarah and Stalker seemed to have forgotten about the situation in a hurry, but the entire situation was being filmed on camera.

    ‘As long as you don’t use your hands directly and don’t kill him, it’ll be fine.’

    Swish! Swish!

    While avoiding the kitchen knife, I quickly grasped my surroundings.

    And before the stalker slashed his sword five times, the design was completed in his head.

    ” Search, search, search!”

    The stalker lunged at me with a force that almost seemed like he was foaming at the mouth.

    Ji profit ㅡ

    In order to create a scene that was avoided as narrowly as possible, cuts were intentionally allowed on the clothes.

    Although it was my favorite piece of clothing, it had already stretched a lot from the dirty stalker’s handling of it, so I was thinking of buying it from a better brand.

    Whether I am thinking about something else or not, my appearance on the outside is a very precarious situation.

    Thanks to this, Sarah, who had stayed behind, had a pale face that looked like she was about to pass out from screaming so much.

    ‘Almost done.’

    Swish! Swish!

    “Huh…! Hehe…! ”

    I ripped off the hem of a t-shirt that was stretched and torn here and there and used it as a string to deflect the stalker’s attacks.

    Stalker’s posture began to become increasingly unstable due to my movements using Alvaroi’s fighting techniques. To be honest, it was such a sloppy attack that it seemed like there was no need to build up.

    And the moment the exhausted stalker throws his arms back wide.

    ‘Now is the time.’

    Pop!

    I inhaled my energy into a torn piece of shirt and struck it with a kitchen knife.

    Clink!

    “Ugh…!”

    The stalker who dropped the kitchen knife took a step back due to the pain he felt in his hand.

    And before I could check my feet, I stepped on Sarah’s smartphone that was lying on the floor.

    Boom!

    “Uh…!”

    Crack!

    A cool sound echoed from the back of the stalker who fell over the threshold of the soundproof booth.

    “……”

    “Wow…! Ugh!”

    Basically, I stepped on the threshold of a fairly high soundproof booth, and that too on my slippery smartphone, and fell, landing on my back in the air.

    ‘I’ll probably have to live in bed for the rest of my life.’

    It left a slightly bitter taste in my mouth.

    Until now, the only times I’ve used violence against people have been while traveling, not in real life.

    But such delicate appreciation did not last long.

    ‘I feel refreshed.’

    Maybe it’s because I was in such a rough place while traveling that I didn’t think much of it even though I made the stalker look like that.

    Still, it was handled quite neatly.

    Without once directly touching the stalker’s body, he struck the weapon accurately and disarmed him.

    It was entirely the stalker’s fault that he slipped and fell while taking a step back.

    It must have been recorded on camera that I didn’t threaten him.

    Rather, if my life was threatened by a kitchen knife, I would have received it.

    ‘Was this the first time I was like this in Namhira?’

    As I was watching the stalker, who seemed to have slightly bent his back in the opposite direction, flinch, the police finally arrived.

    I opened my mouth in joy when I saw the police officers in uniform.

    “Police! welcome! Stalker here……”

    “Hands up! Don’t move!”

    “……?”

    “If you move, fire!”

    The police officers shouted, pointing their pistols and Tasers at me.

    I looked around.

    Sarah is still unconscious in the corner, the stalker is lying down with his back bent, and I am the only one who looks fine, although my clothes are a little torn.

    If I didn’t know the process, I was the most dangerous person here.

    He waved his hand urgently to resolve the misunderstanding.

    “This is a misunderstanding…”

    puck! Tidididididik~!

    The Taser fired by the police flew into my stomach and hit me.

    To be exact, on the fabric of the remaining t-shirt.

    The Taser’s needle did not penetrate the skin.

    ‘ha……’

    Being misunderstood as a criminal will be resolved quickly because there is evidence, but the situation could have become more serious if he had held on without falling.

    If I resisted in vain and a live bullet was fired, I might have been kidnapped to the laboratory while I was sleeping.

    I really had no choice but to relax my legs and throw myself onto the stalker hanging over the threshold.

    “Wow…!”
