Theatrical Regression Life

Episode 528

Lee Jae-heon said he was a villain.

“Why are you a villain in the first place?”

Song In-myeong’s question was valid.

“Don’t ordinary people think they are the main characters…? Of course, he is a very far from ‘normal’ person, but if he still calls himself a villain, there must be some clear basis.”

“That’s an unusual question.”

“In what sense is this an unusual question?”

Lee Jae-heon rather said that he did not understand Song In-myeong.

“Isn’t it obvious? First of all, the impression is bad….”

“Oh, if you have a bad impression, everyone is an asshole?”

“I don’t have a good personality.”

“It’s bad in a way… but that doesn’t mean they can all be villains.”

“More than anything, it is a being that is harmful to the main character.”

“oh.”

Song In-myeong frowned.

“Hero?”

“Yes, protagonist.”

“Where in the world is there something like that…? The ‘main character’ I just mentioned was just a metaphor for how much you respect yourself. But I don’t think the main character you’re talking about really means that, is that right?”

“…Don’t you know the main character?”

“…who is that?”

“As far as I know, I think it was a friend named Jeong In-ho.”

Song In-myeong closed his mouth and raised his head to look at the ceiling. Song In-myeong, who had been staring at the ceiling in silence for a while, looked at Lee Jae-heon again and nodded.

“Fuck, settings that I don’t know about keep popping up. “They say there is a god in a very dark world, right?”

“I think there probably is.”

“….”

It was a very interesting fact, but Song In-myeong frowned deeply. Now was not the time to discuss each other’s faith, talking about the main character or God.

He waved his hand.

“…Later… Let’s ask more about that later.”

“Why doesn’t Song In-myeong know anything?”

“Knowing is even weirder, damn it. “Let’s go back to the original topic.”

Song In-myeong asked after regaining his pace.

“So why is he a villain? A being that is harmful to the main character, Jeong In-ho? Isn’t that a bit strange? Didn’t you almost live with Jeong In-ho? “It’s probably not particularly harmful, right?”

“That can’t be possible.”

“Why are you so adamant?”

“Isn’t that my role in the first place?”

Jaeheon Lee asked as if he didn’t understand.

“Jaeheon Lee. He is an old man, a royal, and the manager of Ohsung Corporation. He has a bad personality and is a pretty pathetic person who is bad at his job. And because he feels bad for Jung In-ho, he picks fights over everything and scolds him unnecessarily. There’s no way Jeong In-ho could like such a pathetic person.”

“You know that even if you look like an old man with such a calm face, you don’t get it, right? I’m saying this because I don’t think you know. In the first place, why is the uncle’s role like that… that kind of pathetic villain? I don’t understand from there now. Do you usually act like you’re playing with concepts? Have you been dreaming of becoming an actor?”

“Not really.”

“Then why is your role like that?”

“Because it was decided that way…” “

….”

After thinking for a moment, Song In-myeong asked.

“So you’re saying that you don’t think of yourself as a villain, but rather that someone decided for you?”

“…I may have brought it upon myself, but wouldn’t that be true in some ways?”

“The uncle liked it so much that he accepted it and said, ‘Oh, of course, I’m a villain.’”

“…? I couldn’t help but like it. Because it means that I am given a task to do, and that proves that I am useful…” “

….”

Song In-myeong thought to himself as he was carefully analyzing Lee Jae-heon’s bullshit.

‘…Has this party also created a cult?’

It was a reasonable suspicion.

I don’t think so, but seeing Lee Jae-heon’s reaction makes me very suspicious. Isn’t it a nuance that if you can be useful to yourself, it’s okay even if it means being hated by others?

Jaeheon Lee was abnormally obsessed with his own values.

‘I had a similar question before… but who on earth made Lee Jae-heon like this?’

It was difficult to explain with only the brothers’ affectionate abuse and treatment in the underworld.

No, it’s possible, but no matter how much I think about it, I think there must have been another reason. There must be a law that is firm, like the providence of nature or the rules of a group, rather than something vague like the opinions of people around you…

“…Uh…”

Now that I think about it, they said there is a God in the other world.

There is also a main character, and that is Jung In-ho.

“….”

“Do you also agree with my opinion?”

“I have more questions than that.”

Song In-myeong asked after cutting out Lee Jae-heon’s nonsense.

“Is it God who decided that you are a villain?”

“Yes that’s right.”

“….”

“What’s the problem?”

“…I’m a bit shocked by the fact that the underworld was a huge pseudo-group….”

Song In-myeong, who was honestly asking the question but was thinking of saying, ‘Wow, this is really bittersweet,’ suddenly snapped at Song In-myeong. The presence of God who attacked me was truly burdensome.

“…That god… also decides on the main character? “Is that Jeong In-ho?”

“It appears that Song In-myeong’s friend is close to Assistant Manager Jeong In-ho.”

“Yeah, I think he’s big enough to be like this.”

“…it is difficult to determine the intent of the utterance.”

“Just listen to it. You grew up well. “Wow, this is great.”

In this crazy situation, if he was that crazy, he would have made a save. The person has grown up so well.

“Good boy good boy.”

“thank you.”

“It’s not for me to say, but shouldn’t you be a little annoyed if you treat me like a dog?”

“I took it as a compliment.”

“A compliment was a compliment, but there is such a thing as class and result in this world.”

I reflexively refuted it, but Song In-myeong just resigned himself to seeing Lee Jae-heon’s face saying, ‘Anyway, I know you praised me and I will accept it well.’

“The more I sell this, the less I get answers…”

I couldn’t figure out what to do to prevent Lee Jae-heon from dying. To be honest, at this point, it seemed like it would be polite to just let Lee Jae-heon die.

Even if he dies, he will come back to life anyway, so is there any reason to stop him like this?

“….”

No, I can’t persuade you.

“…Honestly, this isn’t my field.”

“Then, as expected, I agree with my opinion….”

“Nevertheless, I will try my best.”

Song In-myeong composed himself.

He shifted his perspective a little.

In order to prevent Lee Jae-heon from dying, he would have to address his self-esteem, which was the most fundamental cause, but the problem was too big and deep for serial killer Song In-myeong to solve. Instead, Song In-myeong decided to consider the efficiency that Lee Jae-heon lives by so much.

“Do you think you’ll be able to make people happy if you die?”

“Isn’t that so?”

“It’s so bold that it’s ridiculous, but if I were to give you the correct answer, it’s not at all. “If you die now, there will be no one but people who will cry.”

“….”

Lee Jae-heon’s face, who was staring at Song In-myeong, frowned a little.

“…then that wouldn’t work.”

“I’ve felt it before, but why do people have to be happy about your death? Because you’re a villain? Because God decided the role like that? Isn’t the man’s ‘no’ a reaction like that of a judge who says that he can’t do that according to the rules, regardless of his own preferences? that’s right?”

“….”

“I’m just saying it. Even if you make sacrifices, no one will like you. No matter how much of a villain he is, why is Trent like that these days? “There is a villain who makes everyone sad when he dies, and there is a villain who becomes cider when he dies.”

“I’m definitely the latter.”

“No, it’s the former. Of course, the person in the former case is shaking like this.”

Song In-myeong was a bit absurd.

“At this point, honestly, isn’t it a matter of cognitive ability rather than social skills?”

“There is no problem with my function.”

“Then maybe all the memories of you helping the chicks or playing with them have evaporated and you can’t be conscious of it at all? “Of course you wouldn’t feel bad if a close person who helped you and talked to you about every detail was left behind instead of you.”

“….”

Jaeheon Lee looked a little confused.

“…Did I get along well with anyone?”

Song In-myeong clicked his tongue.

“Didn’t I tell you earlier…? Of course, since I have a good relationship with you, Park Da-hoon doesn’t do that just because he doesn’t want you to get hurt. “I’m sure other people do the same.”

At those words, Jaeheon Lee kept his mouth shut.

My eyes wander.

“Why… why…” “

….”

“…like that…”

Frowning face and clouded gaze.

He acted like a person who had heard something truly absurd.

Like a person who witnessed two moons appearing in the night sky or a person flying in the sky.

Lee Jae-heon continued speaking slowly.

“…Isn’t that okay?”

That’s what I mean when I think about it and worry about it.

“I’m sorry, but honestly, I don’t understand. “I don’t really understand what my friend Song In-myeong said.”

“…It’s not that you don’t believe it, is it?”

“I think there is that too.”

“….”

“I must die. Then people will like it. It’s that kind of role. It’s always been that way and nothing has changed. It’s correct that there shouldn’t be any. No matter how much I don’t die on my own terms, I know that that should be an unchanging fact. “Maybe so.”

The neat and clear voice was a bit gibberish.

“…No one pays that much attention to resources that are only meant to be consumed, right? “Unless he’s a pervert with outrageous tastes…”

He seemed to be feeling repulsed beyond understanding.

“….”

Anyone who saw him would have thought he was a person who had been assaulted on the street or sexually harassed at work.

Surprisingly, the level of reluctance Jaeheon Lee was showing was exactly that. They are acting like victims who have been harmed by criminals.

Even if it was Song In-myeong, this reaction made me feel a bit dizzy.

“…I’m going crazy….”

There are degrees of absurdity.

So what exactly is the ‘obviousness’ that Jaeheon Lee can understand?

Is it right to curse him and even kill him? No matter how crazy a person is, he or she should not be at the level of taking for granted common sense that is completely opposite to general common sense.

“….”

In fact, Song In-myeong did not greatly sympathize with Lee Jae-heon’s unfortunate past.

‘Anyway, you’re living well. Then, isn’t that enough?’

So Song In-myeong didn’t really think about whether Lee Jae-heon called himself a monster or a villain. It was simply because I saw his unique and strange self-esteem as one of Jaeheon Lee’s unique characteristics.

Because of that, sometimes when I look at Lee Jae-heon’s chicks, I’ve thought, ‘Anyway, he says he’s fine, but why would he do something like that…’ more than once or twice. From my perspective, Jaeheon Lee’s plans were often effective, as he said.

“But that’s only when there is no real damage.”

“yes?”

“Right now, damage is coming to me.”

Of course, mental damage was also damage.

Song In-myeong admitted that he did not welcome Lee Jae-heon’s death. When I think back to the first time I met him, I thought, ‘How could this be?’ But that was then and now is now.

Song In-myeong had to persuade or at least hold on to Lee Jae-heon until someone who could stop him arrived. He was in a situation where he could avoid seeing Lee Jae-heon’s body only if he destroyed this bullshit logic.

“….”

But I never thought there would be this much no answer.

“…I’m really dumbfounded.”

What should I say?

‘What should I do to prevent Lee Jae-heon from dying?’

Is that even possible in the first place?
