Return of the EX-Class Genius Villain

chapter 12



new house

squeak-

The sword embracing the strong spirit passes through the villain’s neck.

Due to that power, not only the villains but also the fog in the area where the sword passed were briefly scattered and reunited.

Leon saw a man’s face at that moment when the fog dissipated.

‘Kumalai.’

He is the one who created this foggy forest, and he is a villain with a deep relationship with himself.

Leon’s face twisted.

‘Why are you there.’

Vice-captain of the Phantom Knights, Leon Fortre.

He was born into an impoverished aristocratic family.

Because he was poor, he could not get along with nobles, and because he was a noble, he could not get along with commoners.

My father was always drunk and beat Leon, shouting that it was you who killed his mother.

Just like that, Leon was always alone,

So, longing for free supermen, he wandered around swinging his sword every single day.

Even on that day, a few days before his seventh birthday, Leon, as usual, was swinging his wooden sword diligently on the hill behind him.

-Who taught you how to hold a sword?

The man who suddenly appeared and asked was a gentleman with a good impression.

– I never learned… … .

Leon felt intimidated by the attire and atmosphere of a gentleman who was a high-ranking aristocrat.

The gentleman smiled at Leon like that and sat down on the bare floor to meet Leon at eye level.

– Is it true?

– I really am!

– That’s great.

Leon widened his eyes.

Because I had never heard of anyone being great, not even my parents.

The gentleman patted the seat next to Leon, his face flushed red.

– Sit down. If it’s okay, I’d like to hear something about you.

-yes!

Leon, who was always alone, quickly sat down next to the gentleman who had said he was wonderful for the first time in his life.

The story of Leon, which began like that, continued for over an hour.

‘He’s a good man.’

The gentleman was as kind and caring as he seemed.

Leon liked the gentleman to the extent that he even thought that he wished this man was his father.

So I asked.

-Who are you?

– Someone who had a childhood similar to yours.

-yes? Are you uncle?

– Why is that?

-It doesn’t suit me too much. You seem to live in a different world from me.

The gentleman, who seemed to be smiling, stroked Leon’s head and asked.

– How do you think I live?

-Well… I think the uncle must have a lot of money and be strong. I think I will live a wonderful life doing whatever I want to do!

The gentleman who had been looking up at the sky for a moment nodded.

-I don’t think you’re wrong.

What a wonderful life he was!

Excited Leon grabbed the gentleman by the sleeve and said earnestly.

– I want to live like you too! Please take me!

-Are you serious?

-yes!

– There are so many things you have to endure to become like me. Would you still do it? Will you overcome all of that and become like me?

-I could. I will make it!

After thinking for a moment, the gentleman nodded.

– My name is Carseden. Call me Master from now on.

– Yes, Master!

On that day, Leon was born holding Carseden’s hand and left the neighborhood he lived in for the first time.

10 years have passed.

Leon adjusted well to Carseden’s education, and his talents blossomed.

Leon met several people, but the closest person among them was brother-in-law, who had the same teacher.

The brother-in-law took care of Leon, who had a large age gap, on behalf of his teacher, as if he were his own child.

The death penalty’s name is Kumalai.

Leon spent most of his time with him, and for the first time in his life, he felt safe.

I felt the warmth.

-Leon, you will receive your first mission soon. Aren’t you nervous?

– What is tension! There is no such thing. I will do my duty as cool as the brother-in-law.

-You know what we’re doing?

– That would be a good thing.

-… Why do you think so?

-That’s right, Master and brother-in-law are good people.

-Is that so… … .

Kumalai nodded weakly and said.

– Master is looking for it, so go see it.

-Five! Are you Master? Oh yea! I’ll go!

When Leon, excited at the thought of seeing his teacher Carseden after a long absence, accelerates his pace, something happens that turns his life upside down.

cooong-

There was the sound of something being crushed.

Looking up at the sky, I saw something transparent falling down in the form of a hemisphere, the size of the hemisphere was so large that it completely covered the village.

When Leon’s body stiffened due to an unexpected miracle, there was a person flying through the air toward the eastern entrance of the village.

The teacher, Carseden, was him.

– Master!

Leon quickly tried to chase Carseden. But someone came up and grabbed Leon’s shoulders to stop him.

-no.

-execution! Master is never someone who moves in such a hurry. It’s clear what’s going on! We must hurry and help Master!

-Yes, as you said, Master is someone who never moves in a hurry. Doesn’t the fact that such a person left in such a hurry means that there is an enemy of that kind over there?

-… … .

The death penalty was right.

If the enemy is the one who made the hemisphere in the sky, it won’t be solved unless Master goes.

Leon bowed his head.

said Kumalai as if to soothe him.

-Even if we go, it will only become Master’s burden. All we need to do is get out of here quickly. I mean survive.

-… The death penalty is right.

-Then let’s get out of there before it completely descends to the ground.

-yes… … .

The two of them tried to get out of town.

However, their steps had no choice but to stop at the western entrance of the village, on the opposite side of where Carseden was headed.

There, there was a man standing alone among the corpses of villagers.

A cold-looking man, as if stabbed with a sword and not a drop of blood, pointed at the death penalty with the sword he was holding.

– Demon Summoner, Kumalai. Am I right?

The face of the brother-in-law who saw the man was hardened to the extent that Leon had never seen it before.

The two stared at each other for a while.

It was Kumalai who spoke first.

-Sword Demon, James. It is the sword of fantasy. The fact that you are here means that the cheers are also here, right? Was that an act of cheering?

-I’m hitting the base of the 5th villain… Even more so, it is a place where the 5 s villains themselves are located, so shouldn’t the 5 s heroes be given the right level?

-… what?

-That’s what you said. That’s what the lord said

It was only then that Leon realized that the person who created the hemisphere in the sky was Hwanseong, one of the top five superhumans among heroes full of hypocrites.

– You hypocrite! How did you kill innocent villagers like this!

James’s nonchalant eyes turned to Leon’s cry.

– Why are they innocent? Don’t you know what they did?

-What?

– You really don’t know. Think when you have a head. Is there even one person in this village who is not a superhuman? Have you ever thought it was strange?

Leon couldn’t answer James’ question. As he said, all the people in this village were superhuman.

Seeing Leon like that, Kumalai sighed and stepped out.

-One on one, isn’t it Hwanseong that belongs to the lower rank of the superhumans in their teens? Furthermore, they would not be able to defeat Master with such a huge magic circle covering the entire village. Therefore, return quickly to your lord’s side.

At first glance, it seemed correct, but James shrugged.

– When did I ever say that dealing with Carseden is my master?

-What is that… … .

Kumalai cried out with her eyes wide.

– No way another hero!

-The swordsman came with me. Today, the 5th Villain will become the 4th Villain. It’s a very good day.

As soon as James finished his words, a terrifying air wave blew up from the far side of town.

The fight between two people in their early teens on the continent, maybe three people, had begun.

-You’re crazy to turn your head in front of an enemy.

Kumalai and Leon, who were staring blankly at the place where their teacher was supposed to be, were startled by James’ voice right next to them and widened their distance.

James didn’t follow them and just watched them.

-… Why didn’t you attack?

-I don’t think there’s any need to do that.

– You bastard… … .

Kumalai distorts his face in anger.

James said to him.

– You, just go.

-… What tricks?

-As long as the master and the swordsman come out, you are no different from the end. There must be someone who can control that huge organization of yours that still remains.

It wasn’t Kumalai and Leon who didn’t know that it meant to lead well because it was more annoying to beat the scattered villains.

-So you’ll just let it go? you are nobody! The villain’s nightmare, the sword demon, us who are the disciples of the 5 major villains?

– Are you us? All I am sending is you that guy can’t

That guy, Leon, drew his sword and aimed it at James.

-Who wants to let go and decide what to do! we have you… … .

puck!

For a moment, Leon felt a strong pain in his neck.

My eyes go dark.

As he slowly collapsed, he heard the voice of the brother-in-law, who he liked next to his teacher.

– I must live. Live too, Leon.

That’s my last memory in town.

The first thing Leon saw when he woke up was not a prison, but a luxuriously spacious room.

‘What the hell happened?’

As I turned my eyes to assess the situation, someone entered the room.

It was James, a hero who killed countless villagers.

– First, wash and eat. come back a little later ah! The association is looking for you with their eyes on, so you better not run away.

After washing and eating, he came back.

– You must have a lot of questions. First of all, the sword demon did not die. One arm was blown off.

Sword horse. This is the master’s nickname. It’s fortunate that he survived, but how on earth could he have lived against two of the 5 heroes?

I didn’t even ask, but James meekly explained.

-Yeomma (炎魔) has come.

Yeomma is also one of the 5 villains.

-I never thought he would come. Thanks to that, I have no face with my lord and swordsman.

From James’ words, Leon could see that all the plans to destroy the town had originated from him.

-If I had known it would be like this, I would have killed even Kumalai… … . Anyways, do you have any questions?

-… Why did you keep me alive?

-You guys. They called me a hypocrite.

– That’s how I learned.

-Of course there are hypocrites among heroes. There are guys like that everywhere. But did you know that those hypocrites protect the powerless even to show a fake appearance? That it will help the world?

-… … .

– You can’t really feel it with these words. you are lacking So follow me for a while and see the world with your own eyes.

After that, Leon went with James and saw, felt, and learned a lot.

I also learned that the villagers, who were always friendly, were in fact diabolical villains who treated people like insects and killed them.

Like that, by the time three long years had passed, Leon had become James’ disciple.

One day Leon asked.

-Why does someone as great as Master pretend to be Duke Lamot’s hands and feet instead of forming a family?

At least in Leon’s eyes, James was as great a person as the superhumans called the 5 heroes.

I couldn’t understand that such a person was only doing something like a knight commander.

– People like us are tired.

– Someone like us?

-Yes, those who are only strong and don’t know how to do anything.

Leon could not agree to this.

-I’m sure I’m one of those guys, but isn’t Master different?

Rather, it is James who is so versatile that it is difficult to find something he is not good at.

But James shook his head.

– Me and you, there and there. Just because I’ve outlived you. So there are only a lot of things that are a little stronger and know how to do a little more.

-That’s not it… … . Anyway, so what?

-People like us should have a home to return to. A house where you can rest anytime.

-Are you saying that the house is the Duke of LaMotte?

– He is the lord.

If it’s your master, you’re referring to the phantom Pedro Ramote.

‘Isn’t that what it is?’

At the time, Leon couldn’t tell them apart.

But now, more than 10 years have passed since then, Leon understood the words of his master.

The fantasy knights are the same concept as a workplace to him.

The only time I felt comfortable enough to call it home was when I was with my teacher, James.

But for the first time, he felt at ease like a teacher from a boy named Martin, who had been adopted by the Lamot family a week ago. Maybe that’s why he kept talking about his painful past in the carriage, unknown to anyone but his master and master.

‘Mysterious boy.’

Leon smiled, thinking that maybe he had found a new home.

“Hold on a little. I will rescue you soon.”

I can’t see anything and I can’t hear anything, but I know the direction where Kumalai is, so that’s okay. After running in a straight line and beheading the old death penalty, he will return to his new house where he will be waiting for him.

It was at that time that Leon, who had made up his mind, was about to step out.

“Who saves who?”

In the foggy forest where it is not allowed to hear.

The voice of the birdhouse was ringing in his ears.
