Chapter 74: The Night Before The Terror
It would be nice to terrorize right away and see Stardus again.
But to do that, there is something that needs to be done.
"Follow me in."
"…Where am I?"
Choi Sehee looks at me with a wary attitude.
Late at night, I caught her and teleported to the family house.
Exactly, that's where we have the underground base.
"It's my home."
"…Alright."
The girl follows quietly in a strange desperation.
What the hell made her do this when she was so tough?
I don’t quite understand what the hell happened in just a week.
Well, it’s a good thing after all, right? It's better than continuing to be rebellious.
I was going to show her a new world from now on, after she followed me obediently into the house.
"Come on, get in here."
"Yes…"
The place where Choi Sehee and I entered is a teleportation device in our room.
Her head tilted slightly as she saw a very strange-looking mechanical device in the middle of the house, but still got into the capsule without saying a word.
I turned on the device.
With a slight whirling sensation, we came out of the capsule.
It was definitely a family home when I entered.
When we came out, there was a magnificent mansion in front of us that was covered between the mountains.
"…Where are we now?""
"This is my real home."
I have two houses.
With that said, I headed toward the forest in front of the mansion.
She's following me, glancing at the mansion.
In the middle of such a dark valley, a man and a girl entered the forest.
She followed me without saying much, and stopped when I stopped. The way she just does what I tell her.
What's wrong with her? She's not normally like this. It doesn't make sense to change like this in just a week, no matter how hard I think about it. It's awkward.
"Ahem."
Anyway, I stopped in the middle of the forest and told her, looking at me with a slight longing.
"Now, there's no one here right now. It's just the two of us, and nothing is watching us here."
"So what?"
"You can use your ability to your heart's content here. Electricity, let it out as much as you want."
"…Didn't you say we were going to do terror attacks?"
"Who does terrorism right away? Before that, we need to go through preparations. Try it as much as you want. Full power."
"As much as I want?"
"Yes."
She hesitates when I ask her to freely show her abilities as much as she wants.
Well, of course. I've never used my abilities to my heart's content in my life. It'll feel new to do it. I'm a bit scared and nervous.
A little hesitant, I nodded and encouraged her. Hurry up and do it!
Seeing me like that, she soon took her breath and began to open her hands.
At the same time, sparks began to pop from her hands.
"Urggg…"
So when she finally let go of everything and used her power, electricity flashed from her fingertips.
At the same time
Crack-.
Everywhere near her.
Electricity stretched out all over her, like lightning.
Like a fountain, a stem of electricity that stretches out.
Not only that, but her whole body began to be engulfed in electricity.
Then, something broke inside her.
The sparks began to flash, stretching out toward the whole forest like lightning.
"Oh, wow…"
And I was watching it with admiration after falling far away.
It's a shame that there's no popcorn next to me.
She picked it up and electricity poured out like a huge dome, and it was like a fireworks display in the dark night. You can only see black and yellow in front of you.
The stem of electricity stretches out pruning and scatters into the air, which destroys all the trees around it and is not just a mess.
Of course, I didn't just look at it with admiration. At the same time, I checked how powerful her electric attack was. And the conclusion.
‘As expected, you're strong.'
Her power is suitable.
No matter how stacked it is, to keep emitting that amount of current is excellent. It goes without saying that even its power is enough to smash a tree with a single electric stem.
She’s been struggling alone for decades without being able to emit that much electricity, so of course, she has to be stressed out and sensitive. She can't live with such talent hidden, even if it's military discipline.
After the fireworks that lasted for a while ended.
Now she’s satisfied with everything, she has collected all the electricity.
I was far away, but I didn't approach her until she was done.
"Oh my god"
She's sitting on the ground, panting.
Then I handed her a bottle of bottled water.
"Are you satisfied? Here, drink some water."
"Oh? Thank you."
Sitting down with her eyes slightly loosened while sweating, she gulped and drank as soon as she received the bottled water that I handed her.
With a red face, it's her when she wears it in bottled water.
Her orange hair was sweaty and stuck to her neck, and she’s been struggling since earlier, but… she looks relieved.
Yes, it's the first time she’s shown her ability to the fullest. How great would it be? In the original, there was no such opportunity, so she was taken to a camp in the city in the middle of the night.
Now, she looks like she just destroyed all the trees around her by using her destructive instincts. All the grass on the ground was blackened.
She sat on the floor, I touched her hand.
"If you're with me… You won't have to hide your ability forever. You're not an ordinary kid. You can never live by suppressing your talents. Only when you're with us, you'll be able to live by revealing yourself as you are."
"…The terror you do, it doesn't hurt people, does it?"
"Yes, I'm a nonviolent person."
"…To put it that way, what have you done so far?"
While feeling worn out, she still grabbed my hand and got up.
I just smiled and told her.
"Welcome to Egosquad, Choi Sehee."
"What the hell is Egosquad…?"
***
Now that I have someone with ability, let's start the terror attack!
It would be nice if things can be like that easily, reality is a bitch.
There are many things to do before the terror attack, such as pre-preparation, time zone research, and planning, etc.
Choi Sehee also needed training on her ability.
"…By shooting electricity on the floor, I can fly in the air?"
"Yeah. Imagine shooting at the floor with the electricity wrapped around it."
"O-Oh… It’s working."
Under my special training using original knowledge, she is growing fast.
She didn't use her ability for too long, so she didn't know how to use it right, so I stuck together and coached her.
Of course, we already dropped the honorifics. We'll see each other every day, so using honorifics every time…I cannot stand it…
"Haa, haa."
"Here's a towel."
"Sehee, here's water!"
"Gosh. Thank you."
For a special training in her ability, she is staying in my mansion for a while.
And she got close to Seo-eun, too.
"Hey, hurry up and take a shower. You stink. "
"What did you say? Why are you bickering at me?”
She rolled her eyes at me so I just dodged and went back to the mansion pretending I knew nothing. Fyi, we got pretty close now. We stick together all day for the training, so it would be weird if we can’t get close.
An electricity passed by my side. That crazy bitch!
"Oh! Hey! Why did you shoot me?! I am a civilian! "
"It's bullshit. Why are you civilians? I'll make you feel the difference in my power today, come on."
"Seo-eun-ah, save me! She's trying to kill me!"
“…Sehee. Just shoot with 100,000 volts."
"Han Seo-eun, even you!”
Why do I feel like there’s no one that I can trust in this household?!
Anyway, time went by quite quickly.
Choi Sehee did not use her ability as well as I expected, so it took more time than I thought to coach her one by one. Well, there’s time to spare anyway. There's a long time left before Kim Sunwoo takes action, so there's no problem if we take our time.
Choi Sehee has adapted well in our family.
As she was in the service industry as soon as she graduated from school, she is getting along well with not only Seo-eun but also Soobin and Ha-yul. In particular, when she was wandering as if she didn't know what to do because she quit her part-time job, she fell in love with Seo-eun's devil and fell into playing games.
"…Playing games is fun, but shouldn't you sleep at night?"
"Yes…"
"I'm sorry, Soobin…"
Of course, there was also a happening where the two were caught playing games all night and scolded by Soobin. Fools. You should've run away around 5 A.M. like me.
"But Da-in was with us until dawn, too."
"…Da-in, really?"
"……"
Of course, I was scolded by a traitor.
Anyway, it's already been a month since I spent time with Choi Sehee.
I finally, after a long time, summoned everyone to the meeting room below.
"……"
Four pairs of eyes watching me.
In front of them, I opened my mouth and declared.
"All right. Finally, today, let's prepare for a new terrorist attack."
Egostic's new concept of outsourcing – the prelude to terrorism has dawned.
Now, the days of doing terror attacks alone are over.
The age of collaborative terrorism is coming.
That's how I explained the plan in front of them.
Soon after, Choi Sehee, who listened to everything, opened her mouth and spoke up.
“Isn't it just me doing everything from start to finish?"
"Yes, that's right."
I have to get some rest, too.
You do it this time.
