I Became a Framed Villain

Episode30 – Autosave

A meal joint that was immobilized because it was caught by Miracle Shine.

“They’re scheming, what do you mean?”

“It’s obvious, Mr. Miracle.”

“Wait, Tra… Oh Ji-seok.”

Even though the front seat was empty, she took a seat next to me, and after hearing my words, she opened her eyes and pushed me forward.

“Don’t call me that.”

“…Yes, Mr. Lilia.”

When she was a magical girl, she seemed kind, but when she is in her adult form, her way of speaking and behavior are completely different.

“The Hero Alliance is plotting something.”

But it seems that the eyes are always on fire. As she was smiling quietly at the sight of her, she rushed to answer.

“Can I tell you a creepy fact?”

“Well, what is it? Suddenly.”

“All the top-ranked heroes except the 2nd, 3rd, and… 11th ranks are actually monsters.”

Hearing that, she opened her mouth and looked at me.

“Are you serious, are you?”

“It’s true. Why would I lie to you now?”

I guess I was in a big shock.

Well, I was shocked when I first found out the truth.

If I hadn’t seen those damn tentacles in my eyes, I wouldn’t have believed so easily.

“The world of heroes as you know it is an illusion, except for the Academy, which is one of the few organizations that has not fallen into the hands of monsters.”

“then…”

“Believe it or not, it’s freedom. But you must have seen that day. Those horrible tentacles.”

The complexion of Miracle Shine, who nodded at my words, was not good.

I guess I should give it some time to think.

‘I guess that’s how Dice felt when he told me the truth.’

So quietly looking at Miracle Shine, I can still feel the gaze from somewhere.

– Clap… Clap…

“Lumia? Did you even chew on sand? Spit it out quickly!”

“It’s not seafood, so why does sand go into tteokbokki, you idiot?”

Rumia was smiling and staring at this side.

“……?”

I knew early on that she was crazy, so I didn’t think much of it. But for some reason, I still felt the gaze.

‘It’s strange.’

I turned my head to the place where I felt the senses, but I could only see Ariel with her head bowed and looking at her smartphone.

I guess it’s the feeling too.

“I don’t trust you completely.”

I’m scratching my head in a bad mood, and Miracle Shine is talking to me in a calm voice next to me.

“It could be that they’re deceiving me. The academy might have other ulterior motives as well.”

“It could be.”

“So I’ll keep watching you from the side.”

“Do whatever your heart desires.”

Seeing the return of his eyes, he seemed to have come to his own conclusion inside.

“Don’t make that smirk look.”

“yes.”

“By the way, if what you’re saying is true… why did the Hero Union invite you?”

I smiled for no reason, but after being scolded by Miracle Shine, I answered with a lowered voice to her question as she narrowed her eyes.

“Honestly, there is no way that Oh Ji-seok, who has no identity, could have been invited by the Hero Alliance.”

“That’s right.”

“Perhaps they’re trying to exclude me, or they’re trying to convince me. Either way.”

“I’m saying that excluding you is like that, conciliation?”

Having said that, Miracle Shine made a questionable expression.

“From their point of view, I don’t belong anywhere.”

“……..”

“Once you stab him, he’ll try to kill you if you don’t want to.”

Maybe Justia died like that.

Because that’s the guys way.

“So, are you going?”

“…I have to go. No, I have no choice but to go.”

“why?”

“To catch a tiger, go into the tiger’s den. It’s a Korean proverb.”

I have no intention of running away. If you deal with it well, it’s a desperate opportunity to dig up their information.

“It would be dangerous.”

“Hey, are you worried about the villain?”

“…that, not that.”

Miracle Shine, who was muffled at my words, spoke with a slightly dark expression.

“But, my abilities are reacting like crazy.”

“Ability?”

“You need my help… it’s nothing.”

Then she cuts off the conversation and falls into thoughts again.

‘I’m afraid it’s also dangerous.’

No matter how much I have Justiceia’s ability and dominating hands behind me, it’s natural, but I think this job will be quite dangerous.

It’s like breaking into the enemy’s stronghold no matter what.

And, all the guys wearing top-ranking heroes will attend the seminar.

Although the 2nd place Miracle Shine, 3rd place, and 11th place sister are not monsters, their power has been greatly reduced, with three people losing their lives in the recent Academy catastrophe.

They still have a potential that cannot be ignored.

Right now, in the case of Miracle Shine, it was a trick to catch one’s guard and subdued it, not by force.

If it becomes an all-out war, there is no guarantee that you can win even if you fight together with all the executives of the Dominating Hands.

If so, what should I do?

Should I get some insurance as a safety measure?

“Hey, I have a question for you.”

While I was quietly thinking, Miracle Shine asked me a question.

“Of course you won’t take your assistant, right?”

“An assistant?”

“It’s customary for seminar attendees to be accompanied by one or more assistants. But in your situation, you’d better not bring them.”

As she said, there was no need to bring a companion to go into the fire pit.

For a moment, I thought about taking one of the Domining Hands executives, but it seemed difficult.

Most of the executives had their faces covered already, and Pandora is not a combat agent, the only unknown face.

And if you give Ira’s transformation ability to multiple people, the efficiency and time limit will decrease.

“Well, I can’t help but…”

Because of that, I got up from my seat thinking that it would be best to go alone.

“…Aha.”

Suddenly a good idea came to me, so I quietly raised the corners of my mouth and muttered.

“There’s one person who’s perfect to take.”

Did you say ‘Chado kill indicator’?

“Lumia student.”

At this point, it seems like a good tactic to use.

“I have one suggestion.”

.

.

.

.

.

“yes?”

Rumia, who had been staring at Oh Ji-seok almost without touching the food, suddenly looked at him who approached her with a puzzled look.

“A suggestion?”

“Before that, let me ask you some questions.”

In the same way, Oh Ji-seok continues to ask questions to Lumia, ignoring the eyes of the classmates who are staring at him blankly.

“Have you been invited to the International Hero Seminar to be held in a few days?”

“Oh, you mean the seminar?”

Then she rolls her eyes for a moment and pulls something out of her arms with a smile on her lips.

“Of course I got it!”

When the invitation of the Hero Alliance with golden crests is revealed, the attention of the students sitting next to them is focused.

“envy…”

“It’s said that once you go, you’ll accumulate a huge amount of experience…”

An international hero seminar where the world’s strongest heroes come together.

It was also the place where many mysteries and technologies of the companies called Naro were first shown before they were commercialized, where you could get the latest information briefed, and it was also a place where you could build a lot of networks just by attending.

Naturally, it is a dream place for new heroes and aspiring students.

The reason why many new heroes voluntarily enter the sidekicks of top-ranked heroes, aspiring students use their spirits to impress professors, was also the reason that they could attend seminars as assistants.

However, Lumia is not an assistant, but a regular attendee.

The children looked at the invitation with envy.

“That’s sad.”

“yes?”

“I was invited to a seminar, too.”

But when Oh Ji-seok, who was staring down at Lumia, scratched his head and muttered, her eyes began to shake.

“I was going to attend with Lumia student as my assistant.”

“ah…”

“I’m sorry.”

Saying that, Oh Ji-seok quietly turned his back on Lumia.

– Cheekyik…!

At that moment, the sound of something tearing reverberates through the dining room.

“I was invited, I just turned down.”

Rumia, who even ripped the invitation to shreds, speaks in an excited voice, ignoring the students looking at her with a shocked expression.

“So, please, make me your assistant professor.”

“…if Lumia students want that, there’s nothing that can’t be done.”

Oh Ji-seok looks at Lumia like that, and answers with a grin.

‘Dating alone with the trauma? Then, will we walk side by side and ride the car alone? Can I monopolize him for two days alone?’

“Oh, and…”

‘Now that I think about it, am I dressed as a man? Then will we share a room?’

“……..”

‘I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you…’

“…it’s done.”

He, who was about to say something, read Lumia’s mad eyes, shook his head and left the restaurant.

‘… on the topic of a bitch, you shouldn’t be sick with the owner.’

“……?”

Then, after regaining consciousness, Lumia began to focus on eating while humming after raising the corners of her lips to Miracle Shine, who had a bewildered expression in the distance.

“………”

There was someone who looked at him with an expressionless expression.

“Mr. Ariel? Why is that?”

“…it’s nothing.”

After answering Hiroko’s question like that, she quietly got up from her seat.

.

.

.

.

.

a few days after that. on the day of the seminar.

– professor? When are you coming?

“We’ve just arrived, Lumia student.”

Oh Ji-seok, who arrived late due to overtime work at the academy, was about to enter the special administrative district of the artificial island of Navier to join Rumia, who had arrived earlier.

“By the way, I have something to tell you…”

“School, professor.”

Suddenly, from behind, he heard a voice quite familiar to him.

“Ariel?”

Oh Ji-seok, who completely forgot that he was on the phone with Rumia, opens his mouth with a surprised expression.

“Why are you here?”

“Ooh, what a coincidence.”

Then, she answered with an awkward expression.

“Because I was invited too… Seminar…”

“You mean?”

“Yes, yes.”

Then, she slightly hesitates at Oh Ji-seok’s sharp reaction and mutters in a crawling voice.

“Well, can’t I be invited…”

“……..”

And then, a brief silence began.

“…uh?”

Ariel, who had been rolling her feet with a sad expression on her face, suddenly opened her eyes wide and took a step back.

[Progress has been autosaved!]

It was because, along with a bright red warning sign, a message she had never seen before appeared in front of her eyes.

– professor? Are you Ariel? What does that mean?

“What is this…?”

Ariel’s voice, bewildered by the sudden change, and Lumia’s urgent voice from the smartphone mixed together and began to reverberate.
