Episode 15 – Belated Discovery

Finding a hiding place to have a secret conversation with Miracle Shine was easier than I thought.

The place where I am now is Navarre, a huge artificial island where the International Hero Academy is located.

It is said to be the safest place in this unanswered world where demons are infested wherever you go.

But despite this, it seems that he could not escape the hand of the Villain League, which has been providing shelters all over the world for a long time.

Rather, the area was closed at Miracle Shine’s request, so I was able to easily move with her to the nearby hideout without anyone’s interference.

“Now, please sit down on your chair and disarm all of them.”

“Uh, hey… If you take all this off, you’re wearing underwear.”

“…I’ll get you around my cloak.”

And it was easy to get ready to talk to Miracle Shine.

“Okay, then, tie yourself up with this string.”

“Can I do this?”

“Okay, good job. Now take a seat. I’ll tie up the rest.”

Just like the actors and staff ahead of filming, Miracle Shine and I quickly completed the preparations.

“Lord, the line is quite tough.”

“Yes?”

“Even if I try my best… I don’t think I can solve it…”

After all the preparations were done, Miracle looked to and fro for a while, then muttered while holding back his laughter.

‘The effect is good.’

To be able to capture the second-ranked hero with such a lax method was hypnosis that made me ‘pretend to be hypnotized’.

“Well then, shall we start?”

Okay, so now it was time to pull out the mulberry before the hypnosis went away.

“Now, look. This is the most common form seen by monsters.”

“…….”

several hours after that.

“Isn’t it different from normal monsters? It’s a bit more intelligent, and its shape is similar to that of humans.”

“yes…”

“Have you ever seen this form while dealing with witch beasts?”

“I’ve been there a few times…”

Miracle Shine, who was listening to the trauma lecture with eyes wide open, endured the bursting yawn with superhuman mental strength and quietly gnashed her teeth.

‘How long are you going to show that…’

The video playing the trauma, she had seen it several times.

A video that has been circulating on the Internet for quite some time, in which a person turns into a beast-like monster.

It was because there was a time when there was quite a popular story about the existence of a monster hiding in society with the video turned into a beast.

‘It’s been several years since it was discovered to be a hoax… not even a child.’

At one time, it was a famous ghost story that many people believed in. However, after several experts revealed that the video had been tampered with, it had declined considerably.

‘Are you sure you’re the one who’s been tainted by the Villain League?’

However, young children and conspiracy theorists were instigating ghost stories that had grown cold to believe, as if the recent villain league was true.

For example, a major community including the hero community was occupied by Pandora, a hacker belonging to the Villain League, for a whopping 5 hours.

During that time, the videos the Villain League sent were all about ‘monster ghost stories’, except for Pandora’s pride.

‘Then my ability to react, maybe…?’

The magical girl’s ability to find people who need help. Maybe that’s why that ability is reacting to trauma.

If the trauma was deceived or brainwashed by the Villain League.

Killing and messing around with normal people as monsters was an explanation.

‘Poor man…’

Miracle Shine, who looked at the trauma with pity for a moment, closed her eyes tightly and shook her head.

‘No, you can’t be sympathetic.’

No matter what the story is, the wicked are evil.

The trauma in front of my eyes was an outright criminal.

‘Help what you can, but make sure you pay for your sins…’

Because of that, she had to organize her mind and immerse herself in acting again.

“Ummm… it doesn’t work at all.”

Then, an unusual name came out of the trauma’s mouth.

“Pandora, are you listening?”

‘Pandora? Are you talking about that Pandora of the Villain League?’

Miracle Shine, with her eyes wide open, began to listen quietly.

‘After all, the trauma had to do with the Villain League.’

“I think I’m going to have to do some broadcasting soon. Please prepare.”

‘And if you look at what you’re talking about, you look pretty friendly…’

And then, she quietly started reasoning.

‘Then, perhaps, the new executive of the Villain League, from whom information was recently obtained…’

Eventually, the reasoning came closer to the answer,

right at that moment.

– My heart…!

“Ugh!?”

She suddenly became contemplative and then vomited a scream.

“Ah, uh… uh…”

“Well?”

Then she lowered her head and started to sweat in a cold sweat, and then she tightly closed her eyes.

“Where are you sick?”

Trauma, who was communicating with Pandora, looks at Miracle Shine with questionable eyes and begins to approach him slowly.

“My, don’t come near me!”

Then Miracle Shine hurriedly shouted that, shaking her whole body and taking a deep breath.

‘Damn… I guess now…!’

Every ‘concept’ user inevitably has one weakness.

Guardian of love and justice. Even Miracle Shine, called the Miracle Magical Girl, was no exception.

– Magical girl, you don’t make sense.

“Oh no!”

Her weakness is that she can occasionally hear her inner voice while transforming into a magical girl.

Of course, if that was all there would be no problem, but there was another scary aspect of this penalty.

– I fell for the enemy’s trap in a nice way, but what’s wrong?

she knows That the preceding magical girls had succumbed to this inner voice and disappeared. That’s why you should never fall for this voice.

“This, this is what I chose. It’s not a crisis situation.”

Even though her hands were shaking because of this, she began to resist the voice inside.

– You’ve already been hit by the enemy’s ability.

“…What?”

– Didn’t you crawl into the enemy’s hideout yourself and tie yourself up?

However, the inner voice, as always, began to tease her with flamboyant language.

“that…”

– Your plan? That was the enemy’s goal. To make you believe that you are not mind-altered, and to do your bidding. You looked really good.

“Oh, no.”

Even as he shook his head, Miracle Shine began to doubt himself more and more.

“No…”

Did he really need to take the risk to get here?

Wouldn’t it have been better to arrest and interrogate the traumatized ones?

Even if that wasn’t the case, wouldn’t it be more comfortable to secretly chase after the trauma that runs away?

“No way…”

As soon as such questions came to her belatedly, her face turned pale as she wondered if her mind was really being manipulated.

– Why but. You always said you could hold on to yourself.

“Everyone, shut up!”

– Stop admitting it.

At that very moment, the inner voice begins to penetrate.

– You can’t figure out whether you’re normal or not.

Hearing those words, Miracle Shine’s eyes slowly began to shake.

‘Hey, it’s dangerous to go on like this.’

Then, she bit her lip to the point where blood leaked out and started to straighten her mind.

‘I need to release the transformation right now…’

She had been in this situation a few times in the past, but she always managed to get out of it.

It was because her inner voice no longer bothered her once she had unleashed her transformation.

‘I have to release it…’

However, there was a trauma in front of Miracle Shine, who was trying to unravel the transformation.

After that, with a drone equipped with a camera in flight.

The thing that Pandora asks for is that drone, no matter how much you think about it.

Then it was a big deal.

‘I can’t reveal my identity…’

If the true form of oneself who has been transformed is exposed to trauma, or if it is taken by that camera.

As a magical girl, she was the end.

He will probably lose all his powers and become a normal person.

‘Well, then… what should I do…’

And even if a miracle happened and his identity was not discovered, he could not escape from this place in a normal state.

Absolutely perfect pinch.

In such a gloomy situation, the inner voice begins to be heard even louder.

– Magical girl, stop accepting it.

Hearing that voice, Miracle Shine starts to look hazy again.

– The darkness within you…

‘ah…..”

At the same time, her whole body began to tremble.

‘I’m sorry… everyone…’

That’s when a single tear fell from the corner of her eyes.

“…there.”

The annoying, traumatic voice that began to be heard in front of me.

“Who are you brainwashing in front of now?”

Having said that, he took out his smartphone and started tapping the screen lightly.

“It’s a little uncomfortable.”

And then, the next moment.

– Shaa…

“uh?”

With a refreshing feeling, her mind began to clear.

“What, what? Why are you…”

Miracle Shine, who asked in a bewildered voice at the refreshing feeling he had experienced for the first time in a transformed state, soon realized something.

‘Can’t you hear your voice anymore?’

The hateful voice that had been whispering to him just before was no longer heard.

“Oh, it’s nothing.”

To Miracle Shine, who blinked his eyes in such a mysterious situation, the trauma he answered by scratching his head.

“There is no treatment function yet, so I tried to combine the aphrodisiac effect, addiction effect, and pleasure effect properly.”

“…yes?”

“Thanks to you, are you in a good mood?”

Upon hearing that, she felt her whole body itching for some reason and began to tremble again.

“What have you done to my body…”

“And that.”

Trauma, who was looking at her like that, suddenly picks up a cane and jumps out at high speed.

– Kwajik…!

Then, towards her, the trauma of striking the cane with all its might.

“eww…?”

Miracle Shine, who closed her eyes unknowingly at the sight, shuddered and opened her eyes when an unknown liquid started dripping down her lap.

“……!”

And then, she is startled.

-Greuk… extremely…

An unidentified tentacle-like creature was bleeding, clinging to the Staff of Trauma.

“Can you see it now?”

“Uh, what is that…?”

Trauma began to speak in a kind voice to Miracle Shine, who gazed at the bizarre figure in contemplation.

“Haven’t I told you all along?”

Her ability to detect people in need of her help was more responsive than ever.

“The monster actually exists.”

wearing a black mask.

“Welcome to the truth of the world.”

To the man in front of him who is smiling at himself with the mask slightly removed.

.

.

.

.

.

After reassuring the shocked Miracle Shine for a while, I made a promise to meet her again in a few days, who was still insane, and left.

I’d like to prove the existence of the monster, I wanted to talk a little more, but I didn’t have time.

It was because I received a call that top ranking heroes were coming to this hideout.

‘I thought I’d have a little more time…’

How did you find out about the situation here? Since all broadcasting helicopters were also withdrawn, the information could not have been known.

Could it be that they realized what their colleagues were doing?

– Grrrr…

“shut up.”

While thinking that, I smashed the moaning guy clinging to my cane to the floor.

‘Anyway, he’s an unlucky guy.’

Although this guy was not inside Miracle Shine’s body, it was nested in her combat uniform.

That’s why I disarmed her.

As he began to tell her the truth, he squirmed and crawled out of his battlesuit and clinged to her.

What would happen to Miracle Shine if it had been left alone? Just imagining it was terrible.

‘Anyway, I have to get out of here slowly…’

I was a little worried about Miracle Shine, who seemed to be shocked by what happened today. But since I told you to be wary of the heroes around you, nothing will happen.

Well, she won’t be easily defeated because she’s the 2nd ranked hero.

I’ve also dealt with those nasty tentacles that ate her mind, all the more.

– Jiying…!

“……?”

While I was thinking about that, I was about to leave the hideout, when Pandora’s drone flew next to me and started spinning round and round as if I was happy to see it.

what? why is this here

> Is this enough for a live broadcast?

While looking at the drone for filming with a puzzled expression, a message popped up on the drone.

“What?”

> Please tell me this is enough. I have to eldenling.

A live broadcast?

what the hell is he talking about?

“what.”

I looked into my smartphone while thinking about that, and when I saw the live broadcast notification floating on the screen, I had no choice but to open my eyes wide.

[LIVE! Magical Girl Abduction Brainwashing Training.mp4]

[Highest number of viewers: 506,945]

what the hell is this again

I looked at the control blankly and trembled as I entered, and I saw myself in the thumbnail of the broadcast that had already ended.

“What did you do?”

> Did I tell you to prepare for a live broadcast?

“……..”

> All the drones were damaged in the previous battle, so it was broadcast as a good thing.

So, does that mean that all the scenes from the time I told you to prepare until now were all live?

> The microphone is broken and no sound is transmitted. But the scenes were recorded in high-definition!

When I looked back at the replay with a miserable heart, the scene where Miracle Shine was convulsing while looking at the suspicious video was very vividly contained.

And from the scene where I hit her with the wand, and the scene where red liquid drips from the wand.

Unfortunately, the broadcast was cut off there.

> Low battery and it ends there. It takes an hour to self-charge. So…

“Damn it, people misunderstand me like this!”

Tentacles were not recorded in the broadcast.

If a third person saw it, it would certainly be misunderstood as it was.

“Are you crazy? Why are you suddenly broadcasting live?”

> Did I tell you to prepare?

“The monsters I locked up in my hideout! Relay them!!”

She raises her voice because it is really unfair this time, her drone flinches.

> Wasn’t that for tomorrow’s live broadcast…?

“I sent a text message to say let’s do it today while they were dispatched.”

> ………..

“I didn’t see you because you were doing Tekken.”

In response to my chilly question, the drone that had been floating in the air quickly began to fly somewhere.

> xx

Just leave that message.

“Twitch.”

It seemed like I could hear the sound of my evaluation somewhere.

Well, since I’m a villain now, it didn’t really matter anyway.

To thoroughly trample on a magical girl and become a scumbag trained in one day. It was a bit embarrassing.

> Still, the reaction was explosive.

“You’re dead when you go back…”

In response to the text that the drone poked my head out from in the distance, I sighed and began to walk.

“…Ugh.”

However, the body soon began to tingle again.

“Is it time for the self-hypnosis to slowly dissipate…?”

Read at readwn.com

Just as all abilities have weaknesses, my abilities also have weaknesses.

That is, every time I use my ability, my mental power is also consumed.

The more mental power is consumed, the shorter the duration of hypnosis.

Thanks to that, the limits of self-hypnosis, which used to stop feeling pain, began to come to a limit.

> Sir, are you okay? Would you like to ask for support from other villains?

“No… it’s okay.”

The Pandora’s drone that flew over and fluttered was trying to support me, so I waved my hand and moved forward.

Top ranking heroes were coming here.

If you make a request for support and even run into them, things get bigger.

> Then you die!

“But if you survive, you will become stronger…”

Because of that, I continued to move forward believing only in the ‘refining’ skill.

“Class A Villain, Trauma.”

I stopped walking at the appearance of an unexpected existence that appeared through the iron door of the hideout.

‘The one outside… was my older sister.’

The one who appeared before my eyes was none other than the Great Order.

I could feel the popularity outside the hideout from earlier. But I thought of her as a hero or a monster, but I never thought she was an older sister.

“It’s okay, I have no intention of antagonizing you.”

Grinding my teeth, I was about to raise my staff, but my sister raised her hands and said so.

“I heard all the stories from before.”

“……..”

“As expected, you were what I wanted so much.”

I wondered what was going on, so I listened quietly to her, and she walked over to me with a quiet smile.

“By the way, do you know the river sky?”

Then her eyes light up quietly.

“…what do you want?”

“Let’s make a deal, Trauma.”

And the next moment, the words that came out of my sister’s mouth.

“I will help you unconditionally in the future.”

I heard that remark.

“As soon as possible.”

I couldn’t help but smile and nod my head.

“Let me kill the river sky with my own hands.”

It was because she was planning to do whatever she wanted.

Meanwhile at that time.

In the past, Kang Ha-neul’s childhood friend and irreplaceable partner. Currently, the 17th ranked hero Lee Se-ah, who is on the verge of success as an investigative partner of the Secret Intelligence Agency and the Police Department.

“…….”

She was staring blankly at the contents of the file that had just arrived at the office.

[♤♤ Nursery School Nursery School Student File]

What is in her hand is a picture of a white-haired girl smiling while wearing a V-sign.

“Rumia, you.”

Se-ah, who was looking at the picture, murmured in a crawling voice.

“…what the hell is this figure?”

The screams of her childhood friend who had told her not to trust Rumia seemed vaguely heard in her ears.
