I Became the Academy’s Kibitz Villain

I had achieved the core of my plan, that was the minimum goal.

Securing the spies of Wijeong Cheoksa.

The best outcome would have been locating the research institute on Sejong Island, but at worst, gathering information about those targeting the Zenros on the ferry.

I didn’t achieve the best outcome, but the results were not the worst either. The rest is up to the agents under my command to extract information from the spies of Wijeong Cheoksa who have infiltrated—or betrayed—the Hero Association.

Yumir’s plan assumed that we would ‘cause a scene,’ meaning we would have to take physical action when necessary.

For example, if someone who came to the break room to smoke was murdered, an innocent person killed, Yumir suggested we immediately cause a disturbance.

Yes.

The situation for JamminPuffGirl to shine has come.

-That’s not possible.

I was relieved and looking forward to JamminPuffGirl taking action, but an unexpected tackle came from somewhere.

-Rather than doing something like JamminPuffGirl, I think Director Do’s actions would be most effective.

-Chairman?

-Director Do? Let’s reserve JamminPuffGirl for situations where we’re ‘fighting villains.’ It’s absurd for a righteous hero to step in for such matters.

Yumir simply planned to change identities, but the Chief added another layer to the plan.

-Let’s have JamminPuffGirl appear when a giant demon shows up, and in situations like this, targeting Wijeong Cheoksa, it’s better if a third force steps in.

-No.

-We pretend not to be the society. We can’t pretend to be Wijeong Cheoksa either. We create a completely different organization. That’s the answer, creating a new, incomprehensible organization for others.

The chairman said.

If it’s not the society stepping in, make it so that people don’t even realize the society has intervened.

In that sense, I stood before the people in a completely new form.

So that no one could think I was the Goblin.

“Huh. It seems you’re too shocked to speak.”

“Identify your affiliation and identity.”

Lee Jun-young clenched his fist, trying to conceal his confusion.

“Didn’t I say? I am ‘The Dark Charisma.’”

“Your affiliation?”

“I belong to no one. I am a guardian of patriotism, an awakener of superpowers, a protector of children’s dreams and hopes, a messenger of peace, and merely a passerby.”

He blurted out anything, attempting to regain his composure.

“But if you insist on specifying an organization, then yes, call it ‘The Black Sephiroth.’”

“The Black… Sephiroth…?”

That look meant, ‘what is that?’

Unless one was interested in complex or emotionally stimulating settings, the word Sephiroth itself might be unfamiliar.

And those who knew might think, ‘Why choose that name for the organization?’

It didn’t matter.

The name, the meaning, was irrelevant.

-The goal is to confuse people, so don’t worry about it. Hahaha.

The organization name was personally created by the Chief.

The only member was me, The Dark Charisma. No one else.

“What are your goals! Where are you taking the people?!”

“Hah! I’ve come to save the weak!”

He took the bait.

Now, I have to recite one of the scenarios planned in advance.

“The rehabilitation of the weak who have succumbed to the temptation of the devil! Loss of superpowers? Hahaha! Don’t make me laugh!!”

Flap.

Once, unnecessarily fluttering the cape and making grand gestures.

“Once a superpower user, always a superpower user! Zenros? Loss of superpowers? That’s just the surface appearance!”

To present something in front of people, there must be a purpose and a principle behind the action.

“It’s not because of someone called ‘Platinum Sun’ that they lost their powers! It’s because their own will is weak! I cannot acknowledge such weak individuals as fellow superpower users!”

What logic could such a being, who appeared during the escort of prisoners labeled with a ‘loss of superpowers’ by deploying 30 warships by the state, propose?

“I will personally correct their rotten spirits! As a true superpower user, I will rearm their spirits so they can regain their powers with all their might!”

“You’re going to revive their powers by yourself…?”

“It’s not me who revives their powers! The revival of dead powers! That’s something they must create themselves! It’s not something that can be done just because someone tells them to!”

Indeed, the ideology and logic of a madman with conviction.

“That’s an interesting opinion. You think if there’s a will, they can regain their powers?”

The Heavenly Demon approached me stealthily from the sky.

“Do you really think everything is possible with just willpower?”

“Hmph! The will of a superpower user is the measure of their strength! Those with weak wills cannot become strong!”

I was spoiling a world-class setting in front of the whole world, but it’s uncertain how many people would be influenced by these words.

“Superpower users of the world! If you do not possess a will as strong as steel, you’re just admitting defeat!”

By the way,

The Goblin didn’t say things like this.

They’d rather spend their time beating more demons.

“With a weak spirit, you can do nothing! Especially if you’re a fool who turns away from the truth and imposes your ego on the world!”

I deliberately turned my gaze towards the sea.

Naturally, everyone turned their eyes in the direction of my gaze, and there was Susanoo.

“Foolish superpower users who turn their eyes from reality! You’re just a disgrace to S-rank!”

[What did you say!!]

Susanoo started running towards me.

Noje tried to stop him but sidestepped due to Susanoo’s momentum.

Noje’s look suggested he might have roughly understood who I was through the Taeguk Watch.

Or he might be wondering what made me so great to be speaking like this here.

What kind of madman would make people disappear secretly in a place where four S-ranks were fighting?

As dangerous as it was considered, through Susanoo, they’d attempt to gauge my strength.

[You strange pervert with a mask!!]

I remained silent.

Just a bit longer, until he gets closer.

[Only crazies or perverts hide their faces with masks!]

“Hmph! Foolish one!”

I unleashed my magic power.

The color of the magic power emanating from behind me was unlike the usual Goblin hue, a murky blend of various colors.

“If you’re an ability user, you prove your existence with your superpowers and strength!!”

[……!!]

Susanoo hesitated for a moment.

“I’m already proving myself with my strength; what more is there to hide!”

It wasn’t my shout that made him stop, but it seemed my words sparked some realization in him.

“I’ll show you! The pinnacle of superpowers! The strongest power on earth! An invincible force that shakes heaven and earth, unmatched by anything!”

[I, I…! Susanoo will never lose!!]

He charged at me, manifesting his ability.

His posture, as he clenched his fist and pulled it back, was far from that of a trained fighter.

Gugugu.

A giant circle unfolded behind me.

Unknown to others, using the GoblinBbat, blending the power of Gunggi and Doul, and even Yumir’s magic power, a giant figure shining in brilliant yellow appeared.

[A summon…!]

“It’s not a summon!!”

With the promised line.

“It’s a god!!”

Flash!

Black lines spread across the body of the golden giant.

Normally, it would be black with yellow lines, but most of the magic power forming the giant was not mine but Yumir’s.

“Mana energy, to the max!!”

Yes.

That magic power, all of it, belonged to Yumir, Gunggi, and Doul.

-Rather than something like JamminPuffGirl, how about showing our strength more clearly? Like a giant of light?

The final weapon, added by the chief’s suggestion.

“I’ll show you! The power held by the Giant of Sephiroth!! The power of will!!”

I extend one arm forward.

The most crucial aspect of utilizing such superpowers is ensuring that the movements of the caster and the magic-created entity are never synchronized.

Gugugu.

With golden glimmers in both hands, the giant of light twisted its waist and swung its right arm back. The posture was distinctly different from that of Susanoo Jammin, refined enough for martial arts practitioners to take note and emulate.

“God, Hand Crusher────!”

The giant swung its fist of light downward towards Susanoo.

As one might expect,

It was impossible for Susanoo to withstand an attack infused with the magical power of three S-ranks to its limit.

Puh────!

Susanoo’s head was crushed.

The giant’s fist smashed through Susanoo’s skull, creating a dent in the middle and collapsing it inward.

Pffsst.

Susanoo’s body vanished into mist.

The real body of Susanoo, a boy located near the solar plexus, fell towards the sea with a dazed expression.

“This is…will…!”

Splash!

Susanoo fell backward into the sea, dissipating like mist.

“Applaud! Strong, invincible! A power unmatched by anyone else!”

The giant of light also faded into a cloud of light.

Unlike Susanoo, whose head was crushed and who fell backward, having completed its task, it systematically disappeared from the bottom up, illuminating the surroundings.

“Uhahahahahahahahahaha!”

With an inexplicable, victorious roar.

“Hmph.”

I savored the victory.

…as The Dark Charisma.

---

“…….”

Baek Seol-hee was speechless, staring intently at the TV as a man of unknown identity burst into maniacal laughter.

“Wow, sister. That looks insane. What on earth is that?”

“…I don’t know.”

How could she know?

Such a superpower user had never appeared in this world before.

“……It’s a relief.”

She could only express relief.

‘Do Ji-hwan is not like that person.’

Do Ji-hwan would not do such things.

“Sister. Doesn’t that person seem like they’re just releasing stress?”

“I don’t know.”

Baek Seol-hee didn’t even want to think about such a lunatic.

“What I’m curious about is whether the people he said he kidnapped are safe. Well, still.”

Baek Seol-hee somehow felt pity.

“…He must have been under a lot of stress usually.”
