She went underground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s like a day-to-day life flying nonstop toward the fire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ugh…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Due to excessive fighting, her body is already sore from place to place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But she didn’t care, and continued to step down as her intuition led her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s also because her intuition, the ‘super-sense’, warned her that she had to go underground right now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, you cannot protect anything properly, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…..”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was also because of a certain voice that came to her ears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slowly, as she came down deeper into the ground, the light faded and the darkness began to thicken.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There, filled with black fluid, leaving no side to the wall. Some voices were beginning to echo in her head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like, a devil’s whispers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You lost your mom, lost your dad. Is it really the world’s fault that your parents aren’t here? Or is it your fault?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter how hard you struggle alone, do you think this world will change? You can’t do anything. Who will understand you?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Shut up…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stardus frowned and continued to move her steps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…Apparently, it’s a kind of curse in this space, probably created by the villain who started all of this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And that Stardus speculation was exactly right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A device that makes an intruder feel extremely negative, cursing themselves. The villain who created this devil castle, the ability that Demonz hung to prevent intruders from entering the sealed place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, the voice ringing in Stardus’ head never stopped. To kick her out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stardus, who noticed this somehow, clenched her teeth and tried to move forward, ignoring the rising thoughts, but…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You’ll end up ruining everyone. Think about it… Egostic. You ended up ruining him too, didn’t you?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who will like you till the end? How long will the public like you? They can always turn to your actions. Egostic, will he keep liking you?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Give it up anyway. There’s no one who can recognize you just because you’re doing this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“….”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So the curse here, the bad memories buried inside Stardus, and the negative thoughts she felt recently, were all drawn in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Constantly breaking through the dark thoughts that were asleep in her, she pushed them in front of her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Give it up, get out of here now. If we move any further, no one will know.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…Ha.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, there was one thing that this curse overlooked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s the fact that Stardus’ mentality is not the same as others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So that this curse, created to drive out the intruder, is counterproductive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“….I know.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stardus muttered, in spite of herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But what do you want me to do. I know it all, but I’m just ignoring it on purpose. What does it matter whether this action is meaningless or the public turns their backs on it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And well, even if Egostic now hates me, it doesn’t matter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…Maybe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Gosh.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the negative thoughts kept rising, she made fun of her steps faster, unknowingly frowning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes. Far from slowing down, she went down faster, confronted new monsters and fought back with her fists.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Okay.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There are two kinds of people in the world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a person who loses all motivation and lies down the moment she is absorbed by negative emotions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A person who works harder to drive away the moment he or she is immersed in negative emotions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And, Stardus was clearly the latter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Creeeeeeeeeek!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Shut up.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang-.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Appearing somewhere underground, she knocked down another black monster resembling Gargoyle, and went inside in a state of panic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Toughly enduring, the curse in her ear continues to gnaw away at her mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She came running like that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, she was able to reach the big door of the deepest floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…..”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A distinct huge door, certain to have occurred after the terror.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She couldn’t even hear the voice anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was sure that there would be a villain in here who opened all this, and soon she opened the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Creak-.Beyond the squeaky open door, there was a large room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And embedded in the middle of the room, something in the shape of a huge black heart, many times larger than her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thump- Thump-\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stardus’ eyes were naturally frowned at the strange sight, which was wriggling as if it were moving alive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon she made a judgment.Oh, I don’t know what it is. This has to do with the villain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having finished thinking so, she did not hesitate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Well…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She inhaled, and raised her fist. And a shiny fist at the same time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a trick she gained, beating up countless monsters down here. Freely, put this strange light-emitting force in your fist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like that, she raised her fist and stretched it straight out toward the black heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BOOOOOOOOOOOM-\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ugh…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As it exploded, a great amount of darkness poured out of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heavy black smoke, pouring quickly as if filling the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the room where all the light was lost in such an instant, a roar was heard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[ARRGGGHHHHHH—!]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, the darkness striked up a whirlwind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, with the sound of something being smashed up above, the spirit of the demon king released from the seal smashed all the way up to the earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Devil has been released. You’ll only have terrible pain now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Cough, cough.“\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stardus, who had been looking up, left behind from a dusty bottom, also began to fly along with it toward the ground in a hurry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She came back up like that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was her who had been in charge of fresh air for a long time away from the underground, which had only been sealed and dark, but without time, she had to deal with the disaster that appeared before her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Who are you to dare waking me up——!!!!!!]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It appeared under the night sky where the moonlight subtly lit below.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Darker than the night sky, it soon roared on the ground, looking as if it were wearing a full-length armor and a cape, with a black figure that seemed to be sucked in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And at the same time, the one who failed to become the king of the devil, turning his head to a head with two giant horns with a giggle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon it saw Stardus in front of it, and shouted so loudly that the earth would ring.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Are you the one who woke this body up?——!!!]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[I’ll send you to hell–!]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ugh…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A strong wind soon blew at the same time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instinctively covering herself, she leaned back, and at the same time, with a red spear, he rushed towards her with its heavy body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Living that feels instinctive, the devil’s whisper that erodes in his head again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even in the situation where ordinary people would lose their minds, she raised her head and confronted it, which seemed to embody its destruction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…I wonder where such things come from in this small country in Korea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ugh!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as Stardus’ fist shone, the battle began.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She fought with all her might.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although her body was exhausted by the constant fighting, and her mind was worn out, she did not give in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, despite it being so.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The opponent was too strong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She continued to be pushed back, the devil who was pressing her by endlessly swinging his red spear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Should I give up here?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stardus clenched her teeth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There are things that have been accumulated so far, and there are things that have been lost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn’t run all this time to give up everything here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that wish, she swung her fist with all her might.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A light brighter than the stars, a light to drive out the darkness, flashed at her fingertips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the moment of the night, to the point of brightening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flash-\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[ARRRGGGGHHHHHHH——!!!]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man screamed for the firstime as he bounced far away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The devil fell down against the wall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was the guy who hit and stretched out so well, but that didn’t mean Stardus was normal either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Cough…“\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Between the smashed buildings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stardus, who was sitting in the middle of it, was halfway down due to the side effect of excessive use of his ability.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Haa… Haa…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her barely holding onto her mind, without the strength to move her body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She did her best.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even with a body that was already devastated, he used an attack that was this powerful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ugh…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stardus, who was looking ahead with her hard-to-open eyes and her back leaning on one side of the collapsed wall, smiled at the scene in front of her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…The demon king, who thought he had knocked him down, was getting up and approaching him. With a red spear, dragging it to the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Haha. Even though I put everything into it, that’s it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stardus, who was thinking about it while falling down, felt a sense of disbelief in this situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…yes. In fact, it’s not the first time this has happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With death on the horizon, Stardus suddenly realized something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She’s always had a crisis. There were times when my life was threatened, I was frustrated because I met an enemy I couldn’t handle, and there was a moment when I gave up on everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But curiously, every time, someone showed up for her. Someone who blocked his life, stepped up when he was frustrated, and cheered for him when he gave up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…However, can we still say that it is the same as then. I’ve already hurt someone badly, and I’ve knocked him down again. Will he show up again this time?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, it won’t come.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She thought that without realizing it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment she quietly watched the enemy approaching her with such a bitter smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thump-.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In front of her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if, as if it was an obvious thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Someone, as natural as ever, fell from the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmm…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His appearance suddenly appeared very naturally in front of her eye, landing on the ground, humming, and naturally turning his arms and starting to stretch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wearing a black hat and a black cloak, covering his face with a mask, his smile was more familiar to her than anyone else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Okay… Oh, hello, Stardus. We met again since the last time. Oh, but this time I’m Stardus’ side!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking back at him, who was smiling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if nothing had happened, he smiled brightly and spoke to himself as if nothing had happened here, as if nothing had happened, and Stardus laughed unconsciously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Haha…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Anyway, you’ve worked hard, take a break from now. Does it make sense for my archenemy to fall to another villain, not me? I’ll take care of the rest.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As always, he smiled at her, saying nonsense, and then raises his weapon against the stopped devil with his back turned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon after, the camera he brought turned on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ta-da! Hello, I’m Egostic!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the back of him, smiling brightly at the camera, walking toward the devil with his sword out, flying his cape.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stardus smiled unconsciously\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Quietly, I thought to myself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Egostic is a villain. This is a clear fact that everyone knows and is recognized by the association.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But.
