The Villains Became Obsessed Bosses

Episode 30: Where the flames passed.

I still keep a smile on my face as I stare at the Inferno in front of me.

“A suggestion.”

Inferno was still laughing as if he wasn’t in a bad mood, but don’t be relieved.

Even in the original Magical Girl Shine, Inferno is one of the few psychos.

I turned my attention slightly to the surroundings to relax.

The room was painted all red.

Well…You don’t have to tell me why.

The floor smells of burnt blood, flesh, and pus.

As if the people in charge of cleaning this room had used various perfumes and scented products to get rid of the smell, a flower-like scent came through, but the disgusting smell of blood followed.

I wonder if he is the boss of Butcher?

Perhaps the source of this blood smell is not ordinary meat.

Damn it. What I did to relax made me even more nervous.

I tried to keep a smile on my face and looked straight at the Inferno sitting in front of me.

Inferno closed his eyes as if thinking for a moment.

“..Any suggestions?”

Inferno opened his eyes as if he had finished his thoughts, and I answered with a smile.

“As you can see, I’m here to sell drugs, but I have a lot of stock, but I can’t sell them.”

Inferno still stared at me without saying a word.

..Keep talking about this.

“The reason, of course, is that a huge corporation is holding and monopolizing the surrounding area. How can a small corporation like me survive?”

At this point, the eyebrows of Alpha and Beta, who were standing in the back, twitched wildly, as if they had noticed something.

“..No.”

Inferno leaned forward and put his interlaced hands to his mouth as if he was having fun.

…To bring a beast out of its den.

“I will completely destroy the drug family. Please join me in this plan.”

You have to throw him some huge food that will attract his interest.

Alpha, Beta, Gamma, and Delta frowned as if they were taken aback.

“What can I get?”

But Inferno was not at all embarrassed and asked what he could receive.

..As expected from the original.

I never panic.

A wild beast that responds calmly no matter what.

An apex predator that eats predators.

I struggled to move my dry tongue.

“We will provide medicines free of charge for one year after the war ends. I will pay for all the medicines used in the war.”

Inferno responded with a smile at my suggestion.

“That’s not all, is it?”

..Is that not enough? Also.

“We are not greedy for land. Just give the drug family 3 lands and you can keep all the other lands.”

Inferno is still looking at me with a creepy grin.

…..Ehh.

“We’ll only have two.”

Still looking at me.

“…Or one…”

Looking at me.

“..You have all the land. We will only take the right to sell.”

“Wise choice.”

Inferno finally took his eyes off me.

..It’s like a crazy greedy person.

“But. Where is the guarantee of winning against the drug family? I won’t fight pointlessly.”

Butcher asked me again.

This is a question to ask myself.

‘How well do you know the situation?’

It is a kind of provocation.

I replied with a grin.

“That’s enough already. I haven’t figured out the odds yet. If the premise is that Butcher’s boss is afraid of the fight and doesn’t avoid it, we can roughly calculate the odds.”

As a provocation for a provocation.

Throw more interesting food.

I glanced at Delta’s expression.

The faces of Alpha, Beta, and Gamma passed with emotions of surprise and admiration.

They’re probably surprised that they said that to their boss.

But Delta’s face was distorted, sending me clear feelings of hostility and anger.

I smiled slightly and focused on Inferno again.

Inferno was smiling even bigger than before.

“Interesting. So. What’s the proof of that odds calculation?”

..I don’t think I’m in a bad mood yet.

I calmly began to explain.

“First of all. Rumors are spreading in our industry these days that the Drug Family is ruining deals with strange drugs in their dealings with various organizations. The Butcher must have also suffered from this unfair deal. A small organization that did business with the Drug Family They say they are turning their backs on the drug family because of this.”

Inferno is still silent and listening to my explanation.

“This means that there are fewer and fewer organizations to help the drug family. If war breaks out, other organizations will not help the drug family due to the fact that they have nothing to gain from the drug family. The drug family is alone and alone. It’s going to be a tough fight.”

A person who has lost trust cannot expect help from those around him.

“And secondly. According to the information we have obtained, infighting is taking place within the drug family. It is information from ‘Mute’, so it should be clear. If you don’t believe it, you can check it from ‘Mum’.”

And at this point, the name of silence is sold to increase the credibility.

Mute has a reputation on this floor that is equal to Crow’s in accuracy of information.

So just mentioning the silence increases the credibility of my words.

“No organization is more prone to disintegration than one that is shaking inside. It won’t be a very difficult fight.”

“..Hoo.”

Inferno rubbed his chin and smiled intriguedly.

“That’s great. Even if a small organization could get this kind of information, it wouldn’t be easy for a small organization to dare to come in front of me and make a proposal like this…”

“Don’t be fooled boss!”

Suddenly, Delta cut off Inferno from the side and jumped out.

“The author is lying! How could the drug family disintegrate so easily…!”

“No. 4.”

The space shudders ominously.

A sudden burst of heat covers the space.

My lips are dry.

All the moisture in the mouth is blown away and it transforms into a barren desert.

Stunned by this overwhelming force, Delta stepped back in surprise.

No. Gamma, standing next to him, quickly grabbed Delta’s neck and pulled him back into place.

“Don’t interfere.”

Inferno glared at Delta for a moment, then turned his attention back to me.

“Go ahead.”

The heat is cooling off.

My mouth is getting moist again.

I just need a little more stimulation…

“Besides, according to the other information I gathered, I heard that the Drug Family started the fight first. They said that a Butcher executive in the area of the Drug Family fell and died. If this is not a declaration of war, then what?”

This time, Gamma and Delta’s faces contorted at the same time.

“..Although this is only speculation. The case of Soldier Girl raiding Butcher’s workshop. It is doubtful that this incident was also the work of the Drug family. Isn’t there?”

Inferno nodded his head.

“..Hmm. Interesting.”

Inferno is getting interested.

..Okay.

Now it’s time to gamble.

“It was the Drag family that declared war first. If you ignore this declaration, people will ignore the Butcher. A war is necessary to continue to intimidate other organizations. I believe you are not one to avoid the war that is being waged.”

Inferno’s eyebrows slightly twisted at my words.

..Damn it. Did it go too far

I checked Delta’s expression.

..As expected.

“What did you just say…”

“It’s a guess! Boss!”

The Delta, who had endured the whole time, stepped out again.

It seems that my words have gone mad.

“I think the enemy is the author! Continued from earlier..!”

“No. 4.”

The fury that had been crawling over me turned its head into a basin into which to pour out its new anger.

“I am.”

The room is filled with heat.

From Inferno’s fingertips, flames rise like red flowers.

A flower of intense heat spreads its branches.

To those who offended him.

To the fearless who ignored their warnings.

“Wait a minute Boss..!”

Gamma noticed the situation and tried to step out.

“I told you not to interfere.”

Intense flames cover the body of a weak girl.

Delta tried to scream at the painful heat climbing up her legs.

Before she could let out a scream, the flames that rode through her body ignited Delta’s vocal chords.

Fragile vocal cords become dry and twisted by the heat.

Dries.

Twisted.

It’s torn.

In an instant, the fire ignited fiercely a single green tree that hadn’t even lived for several decades.

Like that, Delta’s life turned meaningless to ashes with a single firewood.

The fire faded in an instant, just like when it rose from Delta’s body.

A stone statue made of black ash in the shape of a human stood in the place where the fire had died down.

Inferno waved his hand nervously.

The black stone statue in the shape of a person tipped over and ran towards the floor.

Perseok.

Something that was once a person no longer sounds like a person has fallen.

Ashes were scattered across the floor.

..Damn it.

I tried to calm my upset stomach and smiled.

“..Ho. The more you look at him, the more interesting he is. Provoking me isn’t enough, do you keep smiling even after watching this scene?”

After pouring out his anger, Inferno regained his smile again.

“Okay. It’s going to be a war anyway.”

Inferno reached out to me.

“I’ll help you.”

I looked down at his hand for a moment and then hurriedly grabbed his hand.

Fortunately, the fire did not come out.

“..Show me the medicine.”

I let go of Inferno’s hand and looked behind him and said.

Crow, who was waiting in the back, put the black bag on the desk with the bag he was holding in his hand.

“This is a sample. You will be sure of one effect of our medicine.”

“Ha. Good.”

Inferno’s smile was slightly brighter than before, probably because he poured out all his anger.

“Go back now. We’ll decide the next deal.”

“..I understand.”

I quickly headed for the door.

Crow clung to me and followed me.

I made the suggestion.

On the contrary, I felt overwhelmed.

..Damn it.

The unpleasant smell of burning people was still hanging in my nose.

******

“Kuh. It’s fun.”

Inferno looked at the door the Obscue left and laughed.

“You’re lucky. I’ve been thinking about what to do with the drug once the drug family is gone. It just so happens that this is an easy-going organization.”

Inferno looked back and said.

“Do you think so, number 1?”

“..Yes…Yes..”

Alpha struggled to answer, stuttering her words.

Alpha was desperately holding back the distorted expression.

Beta looked down at the floor with her pale face.

Gamma looked down at the crumbled ashes at her feet, her porcelain, with an expression of indescribable despair.

“Tsk. The floor is dirty. Hey number 3. Clean that up quickly. Ah. Refill number 4.”

Inferno, who got up from his seat and roughly ordered it, spoke to Alpha.

“No. 1. You should go out of Seoul right now and find out if there are organizations that sell other drugs. He’s an interesting guy, but you can’t rely on him alone. It won’t happen again.”

After hearing Inferno’s command, Alpha hesitated for a moment before speaking.

“..Boss. I’m sorry but…”

“What?”

Alpha lowered his head to hide his distorted face.

Alpha said something to Inferno.

“……”

Inferno’s expression contorted again.

*******

「This is breaking news. This is the news that a series of arson cases are happening around Seoul. As a result of the police investigating the surrounding area, people from the White Detective’s detective agency came out to investigate. It is said that traces of a large amount of drugs were found. Experts say that around 26 drug warehouses in the area around Seoul are burning and that drug gangs are trying to keep each other in check. Considering that the method of arson was the same, it is speculated that it was done by one person…”

“Tsk. I thought only Seoul was in trouble, but it seems that’s not the case. Rotten.”

An old detective inhaling black cotton muttered while watching a small TV set inside the police station.

And the male junior, who was eating jajangmyeon next to Detective Noh, admired watching the news.

“I don’t know who it is, but it’s amazing. To clear all the drug warehouses around Seoul…”

“It’s amazing. After all, that bastard didn’t do that sh*t for his own benefit. Damn him. He too.”

Slurp.

After inhaling the black bean noodles, Detective Noh got up from his seat and started walking somewhere.

“Follow me. We must investigate our case.”

“Oh, yes!”

The junior placed the leftover jajangmyeon on his desk.

“…What is this?”

While the junior was putting down jajangmyeon, he found something and picked it up.

The letter was completely black, absorbing the surrounding light.

“Don’t come soon!”

“Yes, yes! I’m going!”

The junior put the black letter into his chest and ran in the direction of the old detective.
