There Is No Salvation for Extras

73 – Same goal, different purpose (8)

The leader disappeared after leaving a final warning, and the silence continued thereafter.

“…Silence.”

“I know.”

After regaining her freedom, the villains asked her how she was doing, as if they had forgotten what had happened to her, and Yumi smiled helplessly, flopping down on her sofa and wiping her face.

“Are you okay?”

“Of course it’s okay. Nothing will change anyway. “If you fail, you die, everyone knew this anyway, right?”

“…But-“

“Don’t worry. “Because it was something I had to do anyway.”

It is something that cannot be helped. So it’s something that has to be done anyway.

“What if I fail like this?”

“You just have to not fail. Or what, are you planning to just give up and run away?”

“…Isn’t it impossible?”

“Okay. I should just give up and do it.

Even if they are used and then abandoned, they can never betray him. Of course, he has no respect for repaying a favor once taken from him or a sense of belonging to the evil brigade and doing his best.

The villains she was worried about in the first place were none other than her, and the reason they belonged to her evil brigade was only because she was here.

Nevertheless, the fact that they would die if they failed was enough of a reason for them to follow his words. That’s why Yumi looked back at them with a smile, but-

“It’s impossible for us, but not for you, Silence, right?”

“…What?”

“We have a time bomb, but Silence-no, it’s not Yumi-sama. Above all, isn’t the person you’ve been in recent contact with a hero?”

They were still looking at her with eyes full of determination, and one of them, the villain, continued to talk to her.

“Be careful what you say!”

“No. I have to tell you this. This plan is a complete nonsense. Yumi knows this too! “This is no different from a ploy to get people to die!”

“You-“

“The heroes already knew where we were. Just by looking at him, he’s acting like he’s noticed something! Plus, the intervention of Repentance, which was not planned. “Isn’t this a perfect plan to just die!”

“Stop. “Stop!”

“Honestly, isn’t it more realistic to surrender to a hero than to brainwash a hero, run away with him, and then return to headquarters?”

A villain who tightens his throat and shouts. His body turns red, but he doesn’t care and continues talking –

“Don’t you know? In any case, the author is a completely different person from his gentle past. Unlike when he took over Yumi, he now sees her as nothing more than a tool! In that case, you will fail and die-“

“Jinho Choi!”

“It would be better… To be locked up in prison…!”

A villain who suddenly clutches his heart and sweats like rain. She opens her eyes wide and extends her hand to him, but he pushes her hand away and steps back from her, as if he already knows his end.

“Yumi. Thank you for having me. Please-“

“Jinho!”

“I hope you choose wisely.”

Increasingly reddened skin, swollen body. He closed his eyes quietly as he finished speaking –

Puck.

“…Oh my.”

With the dull sound of something exploding, blood spurting out from his entire body, he fell to the floor and died.

“So… I told you to stop.”

Yumi smiles bitterly and closes her blood-flowing eyes. She quietly closed her eyes and sighed, then sat down on her sofa again and stared blankly out her window.

“Are you of the same opinion?”

After some time has passed, Yumi asks the villains who are still frozen. But she didn’t get an answer back.

Was it an affirmation, or was she frozen in fear – she already knew it was the former. Yumi sighed once again, and she quietly closed her eyes.

“I don’t know about you, but I could never betray Him.”

I can understand what the villain is saying as he is already a corpse. She already knows that she said it because she really cared about herself. But she can never betray him.

“I don’t know what it is like now, but he is the one who saved me from the danger of death. “How could you betray someone like that?”

The person who saved and took his life. How could you disobey the words of such a person? That doesn’t make sense. And-

“Besides, you believe in heroes. “Is that possible?”

Believing in a hero was the same as denying her foundation.

“The people who killed my parents and tried to kill me are heroes.”

The silence that followed as she finished her sentence, as if she was lost. Her villains continued to look at her, but when she held out her hand, they looked at each other and she nodded.

The people who took them in are Yumi. Her words are no different from the will of God. Even if they know something is wrong, it is their duty to follow it if she wants it.

The villains who immediately approached the body and started cleaning it up quickly disappeared, and Yumi just closed her eyes for a long time, lost in her thoughts.

From evening to night, from night to dawn-

She couldn’t sleep until the sun set and the moon rose, and the moon set and the next day came.

“Hey, you damn bastard.”

“What is it?”

Justice Academy’s principal’s office. Former hero Seok-Hoon and current hero Gladius were having a conversation there.

“-What on earth is this?”

“What is it? “It’s the answer you want.”

Gladius, who was reading several pages of documents, glared at him with his fists clenched, but Seok-Hoon quietly recited as if nothing had happened.

“You said it. “What on earth is the truth?”

“That’s it, this is-!”

Gladius slams his fist on the desk and stands up to argue.

“Lee Chae-young.”

“Don’t call me by my name, you bastard!”

“Face reality.”

Lee Chae-young froze at Seok-hoon’s cold answer.

“Your question was about ‘Why do you leave Lee Hyeon-woo alone even though you know his identity?’ And ‘The relationship between the Evil Brigade and Repentance.’”

I know. It is true that the question has been answered.

“And I just gave you the answer.”

After reading the documents he gave me, Seok-Hoon could understand why he couldn’t catch them, even if it meant quitting being a hero and chasing them.

“But why are you so angry?”

But-

“If it were you, would you not get angry and get angry?”

That is that, and this is this. Thinking that, Chaeyoung became furious and grabbed his collar.

“It would have been different if you had told me everything!”

“What, if I had told you the whole truth from the beginning, things would have been different?”

“Yes! In that case, I too-“

“You too?”

She was angry, saying that if she had told her the truth from the beginning, this might not have happened, but instead she stiffened at Seok-hun’s attitude, as he laughed at her, grabbed her hand, and glared at her.

“Do you think things would have been different if you knew the truth?”

“…Okay.”

“Are you serious?”

She answered her first question weakly, but when Seok-Hoon asked her again, she relaxed her hands and sat down again.

“You showed that attitude when the incident with that bastard and Yeonseo happened. If you had known the truth, would it have been different?”

She knew it too. What she’s doing now is unreasonable. That’s probably why she can’t say anything right now.

“That’s ridiculous.”

She would normally argue and get angry, but this time she just closed her mouth and sighed as if there was nothing she could do.

“…What are we going to do now?”

“What?”

“It looks like that bastard will continue to run wild. Are you going to keep leaving it like this?”

Inside the principal’s office, where silence continued. The one who broke the silence was none other than Chaeyoung.

“Now I know roughly what he wants. I also understand why you hid it and why you went around alone collecting clues. But you’re not a hero anymore, are you?”

“…That’s right.”

“Besides, looking at your attitude – it doesn’t seem like you have any intention of moving around on your own anymore. “Because he still remains calm at the academy.”

“There is a possibility that another attack will occur here.”

Chaeyoung, who had been staring blankly at her documents, stood up from her seat and spoke, and Seokhoon nodded her head and confirmed her words.

“Is that what you said?”

“…What.”

“I leaked information to the cowardly bastard who ran away with me at that time.”

“……”

“I guess that’s right. “Anyway, he was and is still a treacherous bastard.”

Silence is positivity. She immediately kicked open her door and walked out, turning her head one last time to glare at him.

“You said that, right? “What would have changed if I knew the truth?”

Yes. I have to admit what I have to admit. What he said is true.

Even if I had known the truth and acted accordingly, nothing would have changed. It is true that she behaved violently, driven by her desire for revenge and guilt, and she would have acted the same even if she had known the truth. But-

“At least I wouldn’t have been swept away by emotions like you.”

“I guess so.”

“Also, I wouldn’t have let this happen because I was worried about society.”

“…I guess so.”

It is also true that she is different from him. At least she wouldn’t have had to endure something like this.

“You haven’t changed from before to now.”

As the door slowly closed, she shot him one last look and took her steps.

“You hypocrite.”

Quang.

As soon as the door closed and the sound of footsteps were heard, Seok-Hoon turned his head.

“You’re a hypocrite.”

He looked at the papers she had left on her desk and let out a sigh –

“It’s not wrong.”

I just stood up and started calling someone.

-Have you decided?

“Yes.”

Soon, the person who answered the phone was a middle-aged voice. He nodded and stood up –

“Let’s make a deal.”

-This is an excellent choice.

He quietly closed his eyes as if he had decided on something.
