I Became a Framed Villain

Episode 21 – Unplayed, Target

Late dawn, the aerial fortress of the Dominating Hands cruising through the skies.

“Look.”

Paradise, standing on the open deck in the soft moonlight, murmured in a low voice.

“I was slowly trying to catch my eye.”

Surprisingly, the figure of Lee Se-ah, who was sweating profusely, was streaming from the smartphone she was holding.

“By the way, what exactly was Lee Se-ah’s ability?”

She looked at it with expressionless expression, and quietly closed her eyes.

– Shrimp…!

And the next moment, countless cards spread out beside her.

“Was it the concept of foreknowledge?”

Dice, who had been flipping through those cards, quietly tilted her head and muttered.

“I must have copied it somewhere.”

The concept of foreknowledge. A powerful ability that no one knows about its existence except for the holder, Isea, and Rumia, who is called the child of prophecy.

Of course, Paradise couldn’t have it.

Because it was impossible to have more than two concepts in the first place.

“…Ah, here it is.”

However, he took out a card with a percent sign among the many cards, and Dice, who had been muttering so, soon closed his eyes and flicked his hand.

“Let’s see each other, Lee Se-ah.”

When she woke up after a while, her eyes were dyed blue like Lee Se-ah.

“Anyway, mine is disposable.”

.

.

.

.

.

“ah.”

What Dice, who woke up, began to see was not the moonlit deck and pitch black darkness, but the ruins of the middle of the city.

“……..”

As soon as she saw it, her face began to turn white.

As she always had a relaxed smile, it was quite unusual.

“It’s the same as… the same day.”

Dyce started muttering in a trembling voice with such a rare face.

“It’s strange. They obviously changed a lot.”

Then, she starts moving slowly forward.

“Why is the ending the same?”

I feel sick to my stomach. I wanted to close my eyes immediately and stop my ability.

But it couldn’t be.

Because there was a chance that something might have changed.

That is why Paradise took a heavy step forward.

“…….”

Then, the figures of people gathered in the middle of the ruins come into her eyes.

“Nothing has changed.”

Dice quietly squirmed between them, then muttered with a bitter smile.

In front of her, there was a trauma that revealed Kang Ha-neul’s face with the mask completely shattered.

There was no blood on his face, with his eyes closed quietly as if he were asleep.

Seeing the deep wounds in his chest, it seemed as if his fate had already changed.

“Except for this kid.”

It was a sight he never wanted to see again, but Dice had no choice but to continue observing.

It was because there was a new variable that was different from the ending she knew.

“Did you say Ariel?”

There was a girl on her knees holding the trauma with her eyes closed quietly.

She is none other than Ariel Everleigh.

Kang Ha-neul’s eyes were tightly closed and he was sobbing with a pod in his hand.

“…ha.”

Dyce sighed deeply and looked away, quietly frowning.

“Did you die saving this child?”

I guessed roughly what the situation was.

“Are you going to hand over Justia’s abilities intact?”

Kang Ha-neul now has another goal besides the goal of ‘extermination of all monsters’.

That is, this time to protect Justia’s flesh and blood, who did not die on the day of the entrance ceremony.

No matter how much I thought about it, that was the only reason why Kang Ha-neul would die at this point.

– Ugh…

Dice quietly looked up at the river sky, and carefully reached out his hand to his face.

But her hand was just passing through the river sky.

“By the way, why can’t you see them?”

Nevertheless, Dice, who had been stroking Kang Ha-neul’s cheek for a while, quietly got up from his seat.

“Do you want to go see it yourself?”

Although it was ‘disposable’, the ‘concept of prophecy’ copied on Paradise’s card was somehow more powerful than that of Lee Se-ah.

To the extent that it is not uncommon for her to shift her point of view to someone she knows well.

“……..”

Just like that, Dice’s expression hardened as he moved to another place in an instant.

“Kang Ha-neul, is this your revenge?”

Then, without realizing it, she bursts into laughter.

But Dice’s eyes weren’t smiling at all.

“That’s you.”

Kang Ha-neul’s older sister, Great Order.

For some reason, she was at home, dressed in a suit, excitedly waiting for someone, watching the news on the TV in a daze.

“It’s your revenge.”

Then, not long after, she jumped up from her seat and ran out of the house in contemplation.

Kimchi jjigae, which she made with her clumsy skills, was sitting on the table, smoking seaweed.

“…Ugh.”

When he saw that scene, Dyce suddenly started gritting his teeth and moaning.

“Is this too far…?”

Before long, after confirming that blood was flowing from her eyes, she cautiously snapped her fingers.

– Tzuzuzuzuzu…

Then, the light in her eyes slowly began to disappear.

“ha…”

Eventually, the appearance of the deck returns again, and Dyce leans against the railing with a weary expression on his face.

“As expected, disposables are not efficient.”

Then, looking at the moon floating in the sky, she muttered in a low voice.

“Lee Se-ah, do you want to see the same thing as me?”

I couldn’t say that I had the same ability, but saw the same scene.

Because what Dice wanted to foresee was the ‘end’ of this world.

Of course, Se-ah Lee had foreseen something other than that.

But since his face was so pale blue, he must have come close to the correct answer.

After organizing her thoughts like that, she began to mutter with a smile.

“It’s okay, no matter what happens, the future isn’t fixed yet.”

she knew it well

The future seen through the concept of foreknowledge is not unconditionally confirmed.

The concept of foreknowledge, it merely showed the most probable future.

“You can change it, as much as you like.”

Dice, who had muttered so much, suddenly lowered his head.

“……..”

can change the future

In theory, of course, anything was possible.

Right now, several of them have succeeded in changing the future.

However, in order to prevent the death of Kang Ha-neul, a fundamental countermeasure was needed.

“Ummm…”

The reason Kang Ha-neul continues his life now is because of his revenge on the monster and Lumia, and his sense of debt to Ariel.

In other words, if all of them are resolved, Kang Ha-neul will lose the will to live.

So how to prevent it?

‘…there is a way.’

It was surprisingly quite simple.

That is, for someone to become the purpose of life for him.

“Hey.”

“……..!”

After thinking about that, she quietly clasped her hand, and shifted her gaze, startled by the sound of a voice next to her.

“What are you so excited about?”

Kang Ha-neul, who was holding a trauma mask in her hand, was suddenly on the deck.

“…Did you just return?”

“Yeah, I’m here to say hello.”

Dice, who had blinked his eyes, immediately raised his hand with a smirk.

‘After all, there is only one way to save you.’

And then, she slowly moved forward.

‘I, being a part of your life.’

Her eyes, facing the river sky, shine through the moon.

“The river sky.”

“……?”

In that state, Dice took one step closer to him.

“If you have time, would you like to have a drink?”

Having said that, she smiled and stretched the pizza, and Dice’s body lightly touched Kang Ha-neul’s chest.

“Whoever gets drunk first loses.”

In that state, Dice whispered in Kang Ha-neul’s ear.

“The loser grants the winner’s wish, how about it?”

Kang Ha-neul, who had been looking at her blankly, replied scratching his head.

“Sorry, but I have a prior appointment today.”

“What?”

Dice made a slightly flustered expression at those words, and Kang Ha-neul pointed backwards with an apologetic expression.

“I’ve decided to do it with Pandora.”

Where his finger pointed, there was Pandora sticking her head out on the deck.

＞ Kang Ha-neul is currently in use.

As Dice puts on a dazed expression, she sends a chat like that to her smartphone and then approaches her.

＞ Don’t touch it.

Eventually, she pulled on his sleeve and moved forward, leaving the message and going down with Kang Ha-neul.

“……..”

Just like that, Dice was left alone on the deck.

“…Could I be the car?”

She muttered blankly, then tilted her head and began to head downward.

“What the hell is Miyeonsi?”

Somehow, Kang Ha-neul seemed to like the term ‘Miyeonsi’.

Then there was only one thing she had to do.

“…Shall we do it together?”

She quietly began to move to Pandora’s room.

“Hey, heh heh…”

Around that time, Lee Se-ah’s office.

“Uh… uh…”

Se-ah Lee, who had been lying on the floor with her body drenched in sweat, staggered and got up.

“Lumia…?”

Then, with a pale face, she began to mumble.

“Why are you attacking me?”

Lee Se-ah’s eyes slowly begin to color with fear.

“Why are you suddenly betraying me…?”

– Ti-Ring, Ti-Ring♩

The cell phone started ringing quietly behind her.

＞ Seah, are you here now?

Lumia’s message was quietly floating on the smartphone screen.
