How to Survive as a Villain in a Novel

chapter 31



31 – Escape

A warehouse with a dark and eerie vibe.

Orbis student council executives gathered one by one in this place where hardly anyone came and went.

There are four in number, including student council president Seo Hayoon. They were all limbs that Seo Hayoon could trust and use.

The eyes of the student council executives were focused on the video output device located in the middle of them.

On a translucent screen, a video containing explosions and all kinds of chaos was playing, along with a 3D map of the ballroom where the new student welcome party would be held.

― Kwaaang.

The ballroom explodes with a loud explosion sound, and the floor collapses. The video ended with the image of a box with a red border, as if to signify the goal of the operation.

“This is the end of the briefing. I have explained the operation several times so far, so I think you will be able to do it well.”

It was a calm voice to just listen to, but Lucia, the vice president of the student council, did not miss Seo Hayoon’s expression.

Seo Hayun’s eyes shine sinisterly as if she will not allow her to fail. Lucia trembled slightly without realizing it. Because I know how cruel and scary Seo Hayoon is with those eyes.

“Do you have any questions?”

Dori Dori.

Lucia’s pink hair swayed from side to side. But there are always people who can’t read the mood.

“After all, they are Shenyang people. They even make videos of things that PPT would suffice.”

It was Kwon Ho-rang, the leader of the student council, whose brain was full of muscles.

Lucia, who saw that Seo Hayoon’s eyebrows were furrowed, quickly and quickly stopped Kwon Horang.

“You made it like that because you’re stupid. You muscle-headed bastard.”

“Well, I’m a physical person.”

I wanted to punch the guy who was shrugging his shoulders in the back of the head, but as I said, he was an ignorant and strong guy, so Lucia barely held back.

“He may be a bit stupid, but I’m sure he understood everything, Chairman.”

hehehe.

Lucia smiled without meaning to and tried to somehow lighten Seo Hayun’s mood. This wasn’t her specialty, but she couldn’t help it.

‘Of course!’

Any human being can notice that Seo Hayoon has been very uncomfortable lately. The dark circles under Seo Hayoon’s eyes that have appeared for a long time are not going away.

It must have been after she was properly broken by her father, the chairman of Shenyang Group.

Since her growth graph was completely shattered, Seo Hayun is gradually losing her power in the fight for her succession rights.

It is said that everything that Seo Hayun can do has already been mobilized to analyze the reason why her growth has slowed down. She heard that it only went so far as to speculate on someone’s abilities.

I guess that’s where Seo Hayoon’s impatience comes from.

‘Maybe that’s why we need that artifact.’

This is a bit of an unreasonable number.

No matter how overseas the branch is, they still have to steal the relics owned by Orbis.

It is a risky action.

Of course, there is nothing that cannot be done with the capabilities of the student council and the support of Shenyang.

“How good is that?”

Lucia roughly answered Kwon Ho-rang, who was still muttering with a dumb expression.

“An artifact that can brainwash an opponent.”

“Brainwashing?”

“You can control anyone at will.”

Hearing her words, Kwon Tiger quickly turns his head to the chairman.

“Chairman. Then, if it’s successful, can I try it on him?”

“… If you retrieve it safely without anyone finding out, I’ll let you use it at least once.”

What?

Has that woman lost her mind?

“Chairman!”

Seo Hayun, who made an ‘Ah’ sound in response to Lucia’s rebuttal, continued.

“Of course, not to the vice president, but to Yoon Hyun-jin or a woman like that.”

“That little body won’t be able to handle my things.”

Tsk. The student council president looks down at Kwon Ho-rang as if he were a bug, but he doesn’t speak again with regret.

Tak.

“Okay, enough chatting now.”

Lucia breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing the president slamming down on the table. Because she is back to her familiar self.

“Kwon Ho and you. There will be no problem with the floor bushing, right?”

“Of course.”

― Kwaang!

A punch without much magic power. A large hole is made in the rebar on one side of the warehouse.

Looking at that, Hayun nodded his head in satisfaction.

“Okay then, clerk.”

The clerk, who always hides in the shadows, crawled out from under the desk this time.

“You…You! Since when have you been there!”

“It was there from the beginning. And the question was wrong, Mr. Vice President. You should ask what he saw.”

“…What did you see?”

“White.”

Pukpuk.

After waiting for a moment of violence, the chairman opened his mouth.

“I have left the funds and items for activities in France with ‘Rabbit’. Please retrieve them from there.”

“Why… Do such a chore to me, a person with a brilliant mind…”

“Because you are the most trustworthy.”

“Phew. I can’t help it. So, I have no choice but to take action myself.”

Blood ran down from the clerk’s nose as he said that.

* * *

The portal through which Hyunjin Yoon and I were sent is located in the central district of Paris.

Thanks to this, we were able to walk for about 10 minutes and arrive near the restaurant.

“I can see it over there! Freedom of taste? Is that right there?”

“Uh.”

“…It looks quite expensive, doesn’t it?”

Of course it will be expensive.

According to the original setting, it is considered the best restaurant in the world.

As I approach the entrance of the restaurant, I hear a soft voice.

“Ravi de vous rencontrer. Avez-vous fait une réservation?”

Isn’t this just saying that you made a reservation without having to use a translator?

“By Lee Han.”

I was not taken aback by the sudden change in Korean, and the employee answered in fluent Korean.

“Could you please wait a moment?”

Then the sound of footsteps moving away.

Todok. Hyunjin Yoon stands in front of me.

“This place looks pretty good?”

“First time?”

“Hah? Yes, I’ve been on a date before!”

I meant that this was my first time coming to such a good restaurant. I think there was a slight misunderstanding. Besides, it’s a date.

Well, considering Yoon Hyun-jin’s personality, this would be his first time eating alone with someone like this. I almost cried a little.

‘Umm…’

Anyway.

Why is this employee so late? The future schedule is quite tight.

Once you have Hyunjin Yoon sit in her restaurant, there is a place to go out for a while.

I think there are about 20 minutes left.

Soon, the sound of an employee’s footsteps was heard.

“I’m sorry. You two look much younger than we thought. “I’m worried whether an old store like ours will be able to satisfy you.”

I said it as kindly as possible, but in short, it means that it is a restaurant where people share.

Considering the level of this restaurant, it is quite possible.

‘Now that I think about it, in the original version, only people with a good reputation entered.’

The reservation was made through a private phone call, not through a website or anything like that. I was the only one who remembered that number, but it may actually be a reservation number only shared with fairly prestigious people.

‘Hmm.’

This is a mistake.

I was thinking about a solution for a while.

Yoon Hyun-jin’s voice was heard.

“Le nom de mon père est Yun. Je suis juge en Corée. “Dois-je vous montrer une photo de mon père sur Internet?”

Is it French?

What are you saying all of a sudden?

“Yoon coréen? Je suis désolé c’est de ma faute”

This time, the employee’s voice sounded quite embarrassed.

I could even feel him bowing his head as if he was apologizing. What’s going on?

On the other hand,

“C’est bon. J’ai hâte de voir à quel point ce sera délicieux.”

Yoon Hyun-jin’s voice was quite relaxed and in some ways luxurious.

Another side of Hyunjin Yoon, who is always half-ostracized and ignored at school. Her background comes to mind once again, as she comes from a prestigious family representing the legal profession.

“I am truly sorry. Lee Han, Yoon. We will guide you inside. “We are thoroughly enforcing all employees to ensure that something like this does not happen again…”

Are you an administrator this time?

Receiving their even vehement apologies,

We went into the restaurant.

* * *

‘Uh…Uh…’

Lee Han doesn’t know this, but Yoon Hyun-jin’s face has been very red since a while ago.

‘I brought up the story about it being the first time and all…’

She unconsciously became conscious of a fact that she had completely forgotten. This is my first time coming to a restaurant alone with a man like this.

Plus, the restaurant is nice, they really put a lot of effort into decorating it today, and Lee Han also wore a pretty cool suit.

‘This is totally a date!’

It seems that my ears started to burn when I came to the thought

.

Date. Date.

How should I go about dating?

I’m very confused. Suddenly the employee said something strange. The tone of speech was extremely gentlemanly, but the meaning was simple.

– Our restaurant is not an appropriate place for nameless people like you.

Pajik.

Facing the fact that the first date might end in vain, I spoke out without realizing it.

– Justice Yoon of the Supreme Court of Korea. He is my father. Would you like me to search for you on the internet?

I decided that I would never use my parents’ names for the rest of my life. I was so angry that my promise was completely shattered.

It means that this moment is interrupted.

Perhaps it was Lee Han’s advice to let go of blocked thoughts.

Anyway.

“Wow. The atmosphere is so nice.”

As I sat down and looked around, all the random thoughts disappeared. The interior is infinitely luxurious yet elegant enough not to interfere with the meal. The sound of music flowing softly was not played, but was performed by musicians.

It was such a good restaurant.

For absolutely no reason.

Maybe… To the point where he thought that Lee Han sitting in front of him might actually be a really good person.

‘If it’s now.’

Maybe I can say it.

I always watched over you, but I hated you for breaking dozens of school rules.

Sometimes it really gave me strength.

And.

I definitely want to do this.

There is one thing I want to give as a gift.

“Over there…”

The moment Yoon Hyun-jin opens her mouth.

“Sorry! Stay eating your appetizer!”

“……?”

Suddenly Lee Han ran out of his seat.
