You both did well.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Unni, come here. I’ll heal you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Okay. Thanks, Ha-yul.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No, I’m sorry I can only help you this way.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I watched Ha-yul, with her long brown hair flowing behind her, step forward to heal Choi Sehee’s wounds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Choi Sehee let out a satisfied sigh and exclaimed, “Aigoo, I’m so happy!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is Ha-yul, also known as the evil princess in the original story, whose main ability is healing. In the original story, she turned into a villain after losing her younger brother to enemies, but I saved her and joined her on our team in Ego Stream.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike in the original story, Ha-yul has become a very kind and caring person. She is currently a medical doctor in our Ego Stream team.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hey, everything’s okay now. Thank you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Choi Sehee smiled and thanked Ha-yul. As I watched them conversing cheerfully, I couldn’t help but smile too. After all, Choi Sehee and Ha-yul have always been the closest friends, even in the original story.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But then, my expression turned serious. The real problem is not the current situation, but something else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ha-yul left to attend to Eun-wol, and Choi Sehee sat alone on a rock. I watched her stretch and yawn, feeling a mix of emotions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>… There’s actually a bit of a problem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s about Choi Sehee and her abilities in Electra.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Choi Sehee’s problem is not anything else but…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fact that she’s just weaker than in the original work. That’s the problem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…It sounds strange, doesn’t it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, there are plenty of others weaker than Electra.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Seo-eun could make many more suits, but she’s still weaker than Se-hee. Death Knight could also be considered weaker in reality. However, both of them have hacking and resurrection as their main strengths, so they don’t stand out as much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But with Electra, having just one electric ability makes it more noticeable that she’s weaker.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That doesn’t mean she’s completely weak, though. She’s originally much stronger than me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s just that she’s weaker than expected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even looking at Ice Cool, who has the same elemental power, he’s an A-class hero on par with Stadus and Shadow Walker with just his freezing ability. Elemental powers are that good.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially in the original work, she was definitely stronger than she is now. She could even summon lightning from the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…So I thought that with some training, she could get better, and I’ve been training her hard until now, but…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her fighting sense has improved, but the fundamental problem of her firepower hasn’t been resolved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s why I’ve been worried lately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ah, this can’t be right. There must be something I’m missing. What is it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is it just a matter of time? Or is it because Se-hee didn’t go to prison as in the original work?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What’s the difference between the original and now?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As I racked my brain with these worries…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Da-in Da-in, are you okay?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I naturally raised my head at the voice coming from above.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ha Yul was standing in front of me with a worried expression, looking at me with concerned eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh, it’s nothing. I’m just thinking for a moment.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I reassured her by waving my hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Ha Yul, who still seemed worried, soon stood behind me and put her hand on my back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Da-in seems to be going through a hard time lately. Let me help you relieve some of your fatigue.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And without me even having a chance to respond, she immediately infused power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I felt my fatigue, which had unknowingly accumulated, gradually dissipating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is it good?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Um… yeah, it’s good…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I answered in a voice that was unconsciously becoming more relaxed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was definitely good. It felt like ten syringes of solution were flowing through my veins all at once. The warm energy I felt in my back spread throughout my body, making me feel like I had just taken some herbal medicine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As expected, there was a reason why I had recruited Ha-yul right after Seo-eun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only did her basic healing ability greatly increase the safety of our Ego Stream, but she was also able to help with small recoveries like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And after we defeated Wolgwanggyo, she could once again play an active role…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She could even dispel debuffs like she did for Eun-wol’s curse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As I sat on a rocky surface, enjoying Ha-yul’s telepathic healing, something came to mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ha-yul was capable of anything related to healing, fatigue recovery, and debuff removal. I didn’t know she could recover from fatigue, but I knew she had removed curses from other villains like Choi Sehee.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But wait a minute.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isn’t healing a kind of buff when you think about it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As this thought flashed through my mind, I immediately got up from my seat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Eek!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ha-yul. Come here for a moment.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes? Oh… okay!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I grabbed the bewildered Ha-yul and approached Choi Sehee.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What is it? Why are you doing this?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As expected, Se-hee was also bewildered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I explained to Ha-yul while standing in front of her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ha-yul, healing is essentially about strengthening your health, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes? Um… that’s right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Well, then think of it as strengthening your ability instead of your health. Do you think that’s possible?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Um… I’m not sure…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Try it once. You can do it!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…Okay. I’ll give it a try!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a determined nod to my request, Ha-yul raised her hand to Sehee’s back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Ha-yul worked up a sweat, I wondered how much time had passed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, a blue lightning bolt fell from the sky and struck the forest with a loud crash.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a deafening roar, a huge hole was created in the middle of the forest as if a meteor had hit it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“….Uh…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sehee stood there, her mouth agape at the sight before her that Ha-yul had brought about. I too stood there, speechless, watching as she struggled to catch her breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I mean, honestly, I just took a picture of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…Why is this real?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That day, Ha-yul evolved from a simple healer to a versatile buffer who could enhance the performance of an ability of a superhuman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>***\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Haa… It doesn’t work on me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wow…this is amazing.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That night, after conducting various experiments with Ha-yul, I learned a lot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First, buffs enhance the performance of a superhuman’s unique abilities, and the strength and duration of the buff can be roughly determined by Ha-yul. Of course, the more buffing that is done, the more strain it puts on Ha-yul’s body. Even if it lasts for several hours, if it’s enhanced more than twice as much as it is now, it might only last for an hour.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second, buffs don’t work on me and Eun-wol.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“….”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Well, that was expected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the beginning, Eun-wol and I are different from others in terms of our abilities. Maybe that “buff” enhances “superpowers” rather than magic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But that doesn’t mean Eun-wol and I have the same source. It’s obvious from the fact that I can’t use magic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…If I can’t do it, then it’s obvious that Stardus can’t either.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It can be useful in an inconvenient situation, but it’s a pity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anyway, there were various difficulties, but it was definitely a good thing. If I hadn’t thought about it, I wouldn’t have known that Ha-yul had this kind of buff ability. It’s embarrassing to think about it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…Of course, if you look at the original work, it seems like this buff ability enhanced Choi Sehee, so maybe she could have acquired it on her own at some point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anyway, it was a pleasant sight to see Choi Sehee’s abilities more than doubled. Yes, this is it. It’s like what I saw Electra do in the original work. It’s Choi Sehee who shoots lightning bolts that split the night sky like that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oh, and if there are other beneficiaries of this ability…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wow…look at this…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s Seo Jayoung.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She’s already been spitting out some kind of flame-like thing on her finger for a while.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seo Jayoung, who opened her eyes as if she couldn’t believe what she had made, and Choi Sehee, who was excitedly shooting electricity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Seo-eun, who was whining about why the robot couldn’t get buffed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s confusing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Da-in, Da-in…I’m going to die…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yeah, yeah. Let’s go rest now. It was tough, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes. But…I’m glad I could be of help.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite the fact that she’s about to collapse from overusing her new abilities and that self-healing is meaningless, Ha-yul smiled with pride on her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I supported her and took her to the sofa to rest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…Everything’s fine, but come to think of it, if Ha-yul gets tired from using her abilities too much, there’s no one to heal her. And self-healing is useless if it’s due to abusing her abilities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as she lay down on the sofa, I covered her with a blanket, sensing how tired she was, and I went back outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The night sky, with the moon as a backdrop, was very yellow and purple, and in a state of chaos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the two who suddenly became twice as strong and appeared happy, I couldn’t help but smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…It was really an unexpected harvest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, it won’t last long, and Ha-yul will tire easily, so she can’t be called all-powerful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, it is an undeniable fact that the power has significantly increased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It feels like winning the lottery overnight. Moreover, with the newcomers who will come in the future, they can almost all receive buffs, so it’s a good thing in the long run.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…Yes. Since the problem I was thinking about has been resolved.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Should I train Ha-yul and take a break?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wouldn’t be bad for everyone to go out and have some fun together. Yeah, should we go to an amusement park or make a reservation as I mentioned last time? Rest well, and then turn on the broadcast and cause some terror.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s how I was dreaming happily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Da-in, Da-in!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I just heard, but the American association sent S, S-class heroes to capture you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…What?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Until I heard the news from Lee Seola.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah…um.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, S-class heroes are coming to Korea, not even A-class heroes, and from America?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…This is fucked up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I muttered briefly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No. Why can’t I be happy?\u003C\u002Fp>",1780,"2026-06-03T14:38:02.428Z",1,"novelbin.me","70565045dde62ade7b8dece71af3fdc4fb06c648bdfc27d3d86873e40f3c9b5f","i-became-the-villain-the-hero-is-obsessed-with-chapter-165","i-became-the-villain-the-hero-is-obsessed-with-chapter-163",449,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-became-the-villain-the-hero-is-obsessed-with-cover.jpg"]
