Ep.135 Time Attack

“Tsk…”

In the heart of the city.

At the sudden appearance of the robot armor, Stardus chucked.

[Ugh… Why is this so hard to manipulate? Gosh!]

Swoooooosh-

Boom. Boom Boom.

Starbreaker… The girl in the machine, the one who came out with Starbuster last time.

The member who appeared in Egostic’s pre-terrorism appearance came out again.

And being quite stronger than before.

“…….”

In fact, the movement itself was strangely slow than last time.

It felt like it was moving like a human last time, but this time she felt like it was being controlled awkwardly.

However, the difference is that the firepower is definitely stronger than before.

All the small missiles and guns.

[I’m going to protect Ego Oppa!!!]

There were also words that scratched her nerves in the middle, and it was steadily stopping Stardus alone.

Starbreaker is practically a one-man army. It was not easy to fly to Stardus along with all kinds of guns and missiles while swinging its fist as it approached her.

Even the material itself became stronger as it became silver, not gray, but it seems that it has less impact than last time.

However, Stardus.

She wasn’t playing all this time.

[Hey! Do you think you can stop me?]

“…Ha.”

Listening to the girl’s voice provoking her, Stardus murmured quietly.

“…Ten minutes is enough.”

Only ten minutes is enough to knock you down.

As she murmured, she flew back toward it.

Faintly visible behind a mechanical suit, she can see Egostic.

She’ll knock down this machine as soon as possible.

And she will get to the bottom of it today.

So Stardus clenched her teeth and threw her fist.

“Seo-eun… Aren’t you embarrassed with your words?”

“…Sehee, I’m concentrating right now, so be quiet!”

Seo-eun, with her face red, shouted at Choi Sehee, who sat in the front seat and turned around with a worried expression.

No one’s sure why her face turned red whether because she’s super focused or if she’s feeling embarrassed by her words.

Seo-eun sat down and controlled the thing with her laptop, sometimes she turned on the microphone to say a few words, which seemed to be simply a method of acting.

People would think that she’s a genius if they see her typing on her laptop while saying some words. Oh, come to think of it, Seo-eun is a genius.

Of course, there was a minor problem in which the comments made even the listeners feel cringe, but that was rather a charming point.

However,

“…Seo-eun, wouldn’t it be too much to provoke Stardus by calling her ‘auntie’?”

I cautiously expressed my opinion from the sidelines.

I mean, calling a kid in her early 20s who hasn’t even graduated from college yet ‘auntie’. Isn’t Stardus like 23 years old?

There’s no need to diss her like that.

Of course, it’s not like I’m uncomfortable with Stardus listening to that, or I do things for Stardus or because I like Stardus, it’s just because the dissing is a bit too much. For high-quality terrorism, excessive amounts of dissing should be avoided. As the head of the Villain Union, I need to manage the quality of terrorism. Hmm.

“…Gosh. I can’t say anything in front of you.”

Seo-eun grumbled, then she called Stardus by her normal name when she made the next comment. It’s much better.

Anyway, that conversation continued, and soon our car got off the highway and gradually began to get closer to the city.

The car rattled at high speed.

Seo-eun, who was struggling to tap her laptop even in such a tough situation, soon let out a rough sigh.

“Phew… That’s the last missile I just flew. I don’t know what’s going to happen now. I don’t think I’ll be able to last long at this rate…”

Seo-eun was so focused, even sweating on her forehead.

I cooled her off with something looking like a fan. Sorry for making you suffer, Seo-eun.

But I need to ask her something.

Taking the interlude where Stardus disappeared for a while, I asked Seo-eun.

“By the way, Seo-eun.”

“What?”

“You said South Silver earlier, what is it?”

“…Oh, I’m going to take that as my villain’s name. After my name.”

“Huh? Then shouldn’t it be West* Silver right?” *TN: “Seo” in Korean means West

When Choi Sehee, who was sitting in front, looked back and asked so, Seo-eun spoke up as if she was pathetic.

“…Sehee, who would translate exactly like their name so stupidly? That little thing is caught and identified. I need to add some variations.”

“…Yes. Then why South?”

“That’s the most similar to Seo.”

…Is that so?

As I listened quietly beside her, I just nodded and kept fanning.

Yeah, well, that’s how the current generations think of names for themselves.

FYI, Seo-eun, who was relaxing her hands for a while with that short answer, looked at the screen and screamed again.

“Gosh! How can you get up already?! No way!”

Apparently, Stadus just endured Seo’s fatal blow.

My beloved stardust is indeed strong.

Seo-eun, who was so focused and tapping her laptop like crazy, shouted urgently.

“Da-in! Sehee! I won’t be able to hold on any longer!”

“Soobin! How long do we have left?”

“The distance itself is not long, but it takes some time because it’s downtown! All right. Hold on, everybody!”

With Soobin’s shouting at the end, the car slowed down a little and then began to roam around the city streets again.

The car ran at the shortest distance, breaking every property, crossing the road and sidewalk like she was playing a game. There were no people on the sidewalk due to an evacuation order, so it’s okay for us to do this.

Of course, as a side effect, the inside of the car was rattling like crazy as if it were riding a flume ride.

“Kyaaaaaaaaaa!”

With Choi Sehee screaming in the front seat.

I used telekinesis to hold Seo-eun and her laptop even though the car was rattling. Otherwise, our little Seo-eun would bounce off with her laptop.

Soobin was filming GTA by herself, Choi Sehee was screaming while witnessing the horror scene that crosses the boundaries of life and death in the front seat, Seo-eun was staying busy with her hands and her eyes on her laptop, and me filming my head on the ceiling of the car because it was so rattling.

What kind of trouble is this? This is all because of Lee Seola. I’ll make Seola kneel down in front of me.

Putting all the blame on Seola, we continued rushing there.

Oh, Eun-wol, how far did you go?

Of course, I told her to go as far away as possible to avoid trouble, but… it’s too far!

In the meantime, Seo-eun delivered bad news.

“…Da-in! Sehee! My Starbreaker is about to break down, too! I can’t last long from now on!”

Damn it.

This is not good. Should I just teleport there, even though I’ll throw up blood?

As I was determined to do so, Choi Sehee, who was sitting in the front seat, spoke up.

“…All right! Hey! Get Death Knight out for me. We’ll go first! That would be faster than this Jordan Express!”

“What? How!”

“It would be faster if we just flew between buildings than this car! I’ll go ahead and block her, so come slowly! Lee Soobin, stop the car!”

“…Ugh!”

The car pulled the steering wheel all of a sudden.

Soon after getting out of the car, Choi Sehee ran with the ring connected to Desik in her hand.

Like lightning, she jumped at a tremendous speed.

Leaping on the roof of the building, leaving an afterimage of lightning, she just ran off and disappeared.

…Someone would think she has superhuman speed power, not electricity.

Sehee disappeared with Death Knight.

We drove off again.

The car was rattling again.

I mean, I’m starting to get nervous now.

I said to Soobin, who was concentrating on driving.

“…I think this distance is okay, Soobin, I’ll teleport now too!”

“Don’t be ridiculous. Da-in! You’re really going to die if you do that!”

….And I heard an angry voice which isn’t a usual thing from Soobin, so I decided to stay still.

But if I die, doesn’t that mean Soobin will kill me herself…?

“…But we’re almost there, so Da-in, please get ready to go!”

Yeah, I guess so.

I can hear the sound of a fight.

At the same time, BOOM-.

I heard something collapsing from over there.

Things are getting crazy.

***

“…Phew.”

Stardus looked at her fist, which glowed yellow for a moment and then went out.

DUDUN-.

And the sound from behind.

Okay.

She finally succeeded in knocking down that robot.

That means there’s nothing to stop her from going to Egostic now.

Stardus looked up.

Then, Egostic looked down at her with his arms folded from up there.

She looked up at him as his cape was flapping as if he were asking her to come to him. Stardus’s mind got complicated.

…That was the one talking to me on the beach before?

No, if that’s the real Egostic it means that the person on the beach wasn’t Egostic, so does she have to conclude that he isn’t?

…What am I talking about?

It’s confusing now.

However, she believed.

It’s probably something she’ll notice with her own ‘feelings’ if she says a few words in front of Egostic.

Okay.

Let’s go.

With such determination, Stardus flew up to the sky.

Soon a thunderstorm hit her.

“……!”

A woman’s voice was heard as Stardus hurriedly avoided it.

“Haa. Haha! I, haa, I’m here!”

[Hahaha!!! I’m here, too]

A woman flying with electricity splashing through her body.

A ghost in a black knight’s armor, standing equally with electricity spilled over his body.

Seeing the two suddenly come out and block her, Shin Haru is now more upset than angry.

Why are all of them popping out at this time?

***

[Really, almost all the members came out so far]

[Is this the All-Star battle or what?]

[What’s this one-on-four? Hahaha Are they doing a raid or something?]

[If you want to fight against Stardus, you have to drag out this much force hahaha]

[Electra, what took you so long? It’s been a long time since we last saw Death Knight, too. Hahahaha]

[What is that electricity all over Desi? Was he evolving all this time? Hahahaha.]

“Da-in! We’re almost there!”

“Yep.”

With Soobin’s words, I put my mask on and prepared to go.

…Time attack, I think we succeed, right?

Now all I have to do is prove myself.

Let’s go.

“…You already met Stardus 30 minutes ago but I guess you’ll get to see her again soon, huh?”

Of course, I’ll be wearing a mask this time.

With that said, I teleported.

Let’s go see Stardus.

To prove my alibi.
