Villain Eaten By The Hero - Chapter 64
CHAPTER 64
“’So what’?”
“So, what does it matter? What’s the big deal? I mean, seriously, why drag morality into the act of something as simple as a one-night stand? Stories like yours are quite common. It’s not like I’m recklessly throwing around my precious body. How ridiculous is that?”
“It might seem funny…”
“It’s not amusing. It’s just a body. It’s not some precious treasure that needs to be desperately protected. It’s not like sleeping with someone for the first time or being intimate with someone lowers my worth. Or maybe, if I sleep once, does my value drop?”
“It’s not like that!”
“If I’m in a relationship, I won’t cheat. I don’t covet someone else’s man first. I don’t engage in things worthy of criticism. But I always seem to receive criticism.”
“…Well, yes. I can’t agree with your opinion, but I can’t say you’re wrong. But then, why are you a villain?”
“That’s a stupid question.”
“You’re different from other villains. You grew up well, without any discord, and even now, you’re more modest compared to others. The only unusual thing about your behavior is your lack of modesty. But that’s not a crime, is it?”
Of all the villains who violate the rules and regulations of the world, Hyena is overwhelmingly on the meek side. After all, she never broke the rules of the world in the first place.
“But if it’s not about using seduction, why do you exist in the world?”
“Because everyone criticizes me.”
“No, they don’t.”
“They will. They do. You know, people consider me a fallen woman by the world’s standards. It’s not like I’m hurt by those words. But no one wants to be criticized, right?”
Hyena’s finger forcefully poked Seok’s chest.
“I want recognition just like everyone else. So, I strive day and night to create a world like that. In a world like the one we’re in now, people like you, who are naive, are leaping around trying to prevent the secret meetings between heroes and villains.”
“Of course. I can’t just let heroes fall into corruption!”
“It’s not about corruption.”
“It is. If colluding with enemies, being affectionate to criminals, is not a sin, then what is?”
“It’s not colluding. Of course, it gets complicated when love is involved, but it’s just a few times, like fighting or shaking hands.”
“Ordinary people don’t think that way. Intimacy is something shared in a profound relationship… that kind of thing!”
“That’s not true. Usually, if I say, ‘Do you want to sleep with me?’ to a man, they come right away, even if we’ve only known each other for thirty minutes.”
“Ugh…! That’s why trying to reform people like that is the society’s fate, and you’re the one breaking it!”
“You’re naive. That’s how you get heroes who run away from the pressure. The only people who enjoy being criticized are masochists.”
“Then, just don’t do things that would bring criticism.”
“That kind of arrogance like ‘Everyone can be righteous like me’ makes people miserable. I feel sorry for Kim Seo.”
“Mr. Seo is a righteous hero. He may be a bit rough, but he never commits wrong.”
“…I feel sorry for him.”
Dealing with someone so firm and naive in close quarters would surely be mentally exhausting. As a hero, he has no place to back down.
If he admit it, he risks his own neck; if he doesn’t, he risks the hand that holds him.
Even when subtle clues were dropped, Seok still seemed oblivious.
“It’s not something to be pitied that you have a refined character that doesn’t casually pursue the pleasures of the flesh.”
“That’s the kind of thinking that drives Kim Seo to the brink.”
Words like ‘Your Seo slept with our Belze. More than five times.’ echoed in Hyena’s mind.
She had a lot to say, but Hyena didn’t utter useless words. She didn’t want to do anything that would trouble Belze. However, regardless of what Kim Seo did, if this affair were exposed to the world, it would undoubtedly have consequences for Belze. From the content of the questions, it was clear that both Seo and Belze have revealed their lusts.
While this may be fine within the realm, the villains outside of it will not take kindly to this. Just as a hero who succumbs to a villain’s charm rises to the top of the Blacklist at the Hero Disaster Headquarters, a villain who sleeps with a hero may be blacklisted by other organizations.
Who they’re with. In Meteor City, it’s Kim Seo, the public enemy of all villains.
Many will take their anger at Seo out on Belze.
It might be irrational, but villains are like that.
“Anyway, let’s go deal with the recording. Let’s put the whole Lotte thing on the back burner.”
“Understood. Still, it’s a good thing you’re the one I don’t have to hold back. We’re already onto the next question. Get ready.”
<Do you ever think about having intercourse with your paired partner?>
“Yes.”
It was a genuinely unhesitant answer, and unexpectedly, the sound of approval echoed. Hyena scanned Seok’s face with a bewildered expression. He looked as nonchalant as if answering the question, “Do you want to eat rice?” The situation had become even more bizarre with Hyena being the one perplexed.
“…Isn’t it a bit inappropriate to say such things without hesitation, considering the circumstances?”
“Huh? No, it’s not.”
“You said it shouldn’t happen between a hero and a villain.”
“No, it shouldn’t. But desires aren’t something you can control at will. Having self-control and not acting on it is what’s important.”
This guy… even if he unexpectedly finds out the truth, would he still have a mentality to triumph?
Despite having considered throttling him from behind, maybe it wouldn’t be necessary. Hyena answered the question with a simple “Yes” and silently wished that the two hadn’t given unnecessary answers.
*
Belze and Seo, who had given answers that would be socially deadly if revealed, were basking in the breezy atmosphere, without realizing the urgency of the situation.
Doing what feels good makes you feel good. Enjoying the cl*max as much as they could, they forgot about the urgency of the situation and exchanged light flirtations, nudging each other’s arms or running their fingers along the hem of their clothes.
Occasionally meeting the eyes of passing citizens who, sensing the peculiar atmosphere, wisely stayed away, and cameras that had all gone silent. It was not a bad time.
Moreover, all of Belze’s answers so far were about him. Seo looked down at Belze with a feeling of satisfaction, having relaxed.
During this time, Belze had been gradually figuring out the working mechanism of the iron gate and dismantling parts of the trap.
Normally, he would have frowned at her, but today was different; for some reason, he felt proud of her competence.
“You’re doing well.”
“Of course. DDD resources aren’t easy to handle, but they don’t match my skills. I’ll give them credit for putting together a big trap in a short amount of time, but it was a bit clumsy because it was made in a hurry. If you want to see how this works, here’s how it rolls….”
However, he stopped listening from this point on, as it was all unfamiliar content. He intermittently praised Belze, saying things like “Impressive,” “Well done,” or the like, while closely examining her attire.
“Why are you dressed like that today?”
The flowing white off-the-shoulder dress was an awkward choice for a combat outfit, which made it easy to lift the skirt and insert his c*ck, but it piqued his curiosity.
“Cute, isn’t it? Boss gave it to me as a gift.”
When she finished, Belze stood up on her knees and smoothed out the dress. Her face was flushed, and Seo’s face grew as cold as a winter sunset.
“Ahh… Boss gave it to you?”
“Yeah.”
“He gave it to you?”
“Yeah. Isn’t it pretty? It’s from the Singapore Collection in the first half of the year.”
“….”
“I wear it during battles, because it would be a shame not to wear a gift.”
“You didn’t wear the one I gave you…….”
Seo’s molars made a grinding sound.
Belze was quick to recognize that Seo was unhappy. Even the untrained eye could see it in his pinched face.
Despite the somewhat embarrassing complaints, but it also made her feel smug. Since he had explicitly asked for more affection, Seo’s complaints were akin to visible jealousy.
If the clothes he gave weren’t underwear, the atmosphere might have been a bit lighter, but it couldn’t be helped. Belze glanced at Seo with a slightly cheeky look.
“Send me better clothes next time.”
“They look good on you, and they’re expensive.”
“Just because they’re look good doesn’t mean it’s expensive.”
“Like a hundred.”
“Not… that much. Even if it’s expensive, it might not be suitable.”
She said it, but she was actually a little mesmerized by the prospect of paying a million dollars for underwear.
“But I got the size just right.”
“Well, that’s basic… isn’t it? Did you send it to me knowing my size?”
Come to think of it, she remembered that it was the same size as what she usually bought. Of course, she had never told him her size.
Belze thought that he had roughly estimated it, but Seo, boasting that it fit perfectly, caught her attention.
After about two seconds of contemplation, Seo narrowed his eyes and casually said,
“…I’ve touched it, I roughly know.”
No matter how one put it, such words were embarrassing. It was even more embarrassing that the size fit perfectly. Belze stomped one foot and tugged at his uniform top as if she were squeezing a fist.
“What do you mean ‘roughly’? Have you met so many women that you can tell roughly? Do you figure it out by touching them? Hey, even Casanova wouldn’t say that!”
Even Hugo, who had slept with countless women, didn’t say such things. It’s the kind of thing a h*rny guy would say, and it reignites her suspicions.
“We have profiles managed by the headquarters, so you can easily guess from there! Anyway, the size fits, but you didn’t wear it!”
“Really? Is that true? Isn’t that because you’ve met a lot of people in the past? Isn’t that because you’ve handled a thousand women? Wasn’t that it?”
“Have you completely forgotten your past plans of seducing me with women, which all ended in failure?”
