Episode 2 of the Overly Competent Villain - Episode 2 of the Overly Competent Villain chapter 53

＜ Brotherhood (1) ＞

As they boarded the Brotherhood’s ship, they planned to blow it up and make it crash, so they brought as much food as they could bring.

The combat rations are small in volume but high in calories.

Even so, there was a limit to what I could bring, so it wasn’t much, but all I had to do was get drinking water right now.

“I’ve filmed a survival story in the backcountry of the south. I went to sell weapons to the rebels, but there were not one or two rebels there. The airship was intercepted and left in the middle of the jungle.”

There were a lot of dizzying moments in the process of getting through the jungle to avoid hostile rebels, but the biggest problem was securing drinking water.

“The river water was dirtier than I thought, and it was obvious that if I just drank it, I would go to the goal.”

In the meantime, what they found were fruits that were clustered on palm trees.

The inner flesh of the fruit and the water filled inside were indispensable food for survival.

– Kak! Kakak!

The fruit of the palm tree is split open to make the juice inside drinkable. The two of them seemed to hesitate for a moment as they accepted the palm fruit.

“Uh… can you think of it as a health drink?”

There is bound to be a sense of reluctance, perhaps because she is a lady from a noble house who will never eat wild food as it is.

“There’s no way you’ll die from eating it, so dig into the flesh well.”

Palm fruit isn’t very tasty, but it’s sensitive in this situation. Not even the young girls of chaebol groups didn’t know that, so everyone grabbed each palm fruit as if they were sorry.

“What are you going to do from now on?”

Mir has asked about your future plans.

“Three days. If we hold out for the next three days, my men will find us one step ahead of the Imperials. Until then, let’s expect the Brotherhood to escape.”

[Sounds out of nowhere.]

I didn’t lie. lies.

* * * *

“Search the nearby islands. Hurry up. The imperial bastards will come soon.”

The airship crashed, but there were no casualties among the Brotherhood. It was a relatively gentle fall because the air pressure difference caused by the small explosion tilted the nasolabial line.

It was one thing that the situation was not very pleasant with the empire’s medicine being high due to the raid on the Krales fleet.

Cromwell made a cool decision.

First of all, except for the repair of the airship and the necessary manpower, it is to search the island and capture Pietro and Mayer.

‘It’s not worth it to withdraw like this.’

He could not punish Heisenberg, the prisoner trafficker who was the top priority, and he could not properly rescue his own people. Poonglimok, which was ranked second, was also missed.

In the end, Jacques Pietro did a lot of good things.

That’s why they kidnapped Lady Mayer and Jacques Pietro, who were ranked third…

“Damn Pietro. To pierce a ship like that.”

Farhan, a member of the Brotherhood, scolded Pietro as he searched until late at night.

“Don’t be loud, brother. They might hear you.”

“Heh, listen. Even so, aren’t we human? We can’t avoid our eyes at night like this.”

Even at night, the warriors of the Brotherhood continue their search without hesitation because of their eyes.

Even in the dark, the eyes of the beastmen, who can see as clearly as daytime, are not affected by the good or bad at night.

Rather, the human Jacques Pietro would be in a much more disadvantaged situation.

“Even if we find him and approach him, he won’t even notice our approach. He’s not even a warrior in the first place.”

They didn’t know that Jacques Pietro had magical powers.

Although there was a skirmish at the hotel, most of it was Elysia and the Highney Squad, and all they did was knock them out with a surprise attack.

In the first place, Jacques Pietro was pursued by the Brotherhood in the North. Even then, only his subordinates were sent out, and he rarely participated in engagements himself.

The gun was pretty good at shooting, but in reverse, it meant that I didn’t know how to do anything other than that.

It is not difficult to catch him as long as he catches the eye.

‘Farhan! Look over there!’

At that time, a colleague stopped Farhan and beckoned. At the tip of his finger, a man dressed in a foreign outfit on an uninhabited island was showing his back.

‘Pietro-kun.’

‘Approach without being noticed.’

The two warriors cautiously approached, killing signs.

It was a space where even the slightest wrong movement could make a sound, but it was like a home ground for hardened beast warriors.

The moment he thought he could attack Zach from behind, he stood up.

-stop!

Farhan stops his comrades with a beckoning gesture. Zach left slowly. For a very short time, the moment they were out of ‘sight’ because they were covered by trees in the forest, the two chased after Zach, who had disappeared quickly.

but.

‘has disappeared?’

‘How did this happen?’

The figure of Zach, who had been in front of me a while ago, disappeared.

‘Find the traces!’

‘The trace is also cut off here!’

The ghost was supposed to sing. It was definitely where Zach had been, but even the footprints had disappeared as if they had risen into the air.

Even in a situation where the smell he gives off is still full–

– Tup!

“uh?”

get caught in the head The beast warrior, whom he thought was a colleague for a moment, tried to ask if it was time to play, but he couldn’t.

-Pajijijik!

“Kwaaa?!”

“Kara!”

Farhan shouted as he witnessed someone appearing behind his back as he struck a comrade.

When? He was nowhere to be seen in his clear field of vision!

“You bastard! Jacques Pietro!”

Colleagues falling. Farhan accepted her, but his colleague passed out after receiving an electric shock to the head.

“Shh. Be quiet. The children are sleeping. Farhan.”

“Pietro…!?”

Wait, how come he knows his name?

“The friend over there must be Garnet. Has he been chain-smoking hard lately?”

“how?”

“Well, does that matter? Just jump in. I wonder how far I can go.”

“This bastard!”

Farhan’s fist rushed towards Zach. Judging by the electric shock, the wizard. The formula that wizards should not be allowed distance is the same for the Brotherhood.

However, the fist he was about to throw was missed by Zach’s smooth hand-snatch.

“what?!”

Zach’s fist rushes at him in surprise. It was a completely unexpected move, so the attack was allowed.

Wow! Farhan hesitated with an unusual sound. His gaze was filled with astonishment.

“how···?”

“It’s a trade secret.”

Feeling something strange, Farhan took two steps back.

Wizard? Sword user? Either way, it’s difficult to gauge the opponent’s strength. Zach calmly said to the perplexed Farhan.

“Avoid well. I can’t control this well either.”

“what?”

At that moment, the goose bumps ran up his back, and Farhan made an acrobatic move to evade.

And something razor sharp. He wondered if he had a weapon, but it was completely unexpected that he came into Farhan’s field of vision.

“shadow?”

A shadow rose from the darkness of the night and jutted out like a blade.

“You bastard…! What the hell did you do!”

“Is there a villain who can honestly answer that? If you were a hero, I wouldn’t know again.”

Along with the smirk, Farhan’s eyesight… all of his senses were filled with an eerie aura.

A thick darkness fell on all sides of the forest. Shadows formed by the moonlight wriggling.

“crazy······.”

It is as if the darkness of the forest reveals hostility. It was natural for Farhan to curse after realizing that he was dealing with not an individual but the forest itself.

“It’s the first time I’ve used it in real combat, so please understand. It’s nighttime, so my energy is overflowing.”

Shadows come over

The darkness of the forest ate the two beast warriors.

* * * *

late night Unlike Aris, who fell asleep from exhaustion, Mir could hardly sleep.

It feels like being placed on a well-planned chessboard.

It was an idea from the Grand Cruno Casino.

They wondered if they were being moved as he wanted in some big picture drawn by Jacques Pietro.

‘Nonsense. It’s speculation… that’s it.’

Yes, even if Jacques Pietro is a notorious criminal, it’s impossible to predict and plot all of that.

Mir is said to be able to predict the future with his innate talent, ‘mysterious power’, but isn’t that what Zach is?

‘It’s still a long way to be with him… it’s strange.’

He must have been the villain who killed his mother through terrorism. The kindness or consideration he shows embarrasses Mir.

Come to think of it, when he was about to part with Pietro on the island, he had no reason to carry them.

If you’re going to run away, you’ll be much more comfortable alone.

Even so, you dare to take care of yourself and Aris, who are burdens? Like you really want to help?

‘No, it can’t be. he’s a dirty criminal It’s definitely a ploy to get something from the president with this debt.’

Mir denied Zach’s intentions and looked at the handcuffs on his wrists.

“It’s all because of this…”

Handcuffs that seal magical power. These are the things the Brotherhood filled me with.

This is what made you weak and made you think weak. If it wasn’t for this, I wouldn’t have had to receive the protection of a criminal like Zach.

-Brush!

Then, pretending to be entering the cave. For a moment, I saw Zach in my field of vision, which I was wary of thinking it might be a beastman.

“Keuk…”

Zach struggles to enter while holding on to his side.

I tried not to pay attention, but I couldn’t help paying attention to the scent of blood that irritated my nose.

“Jacques Pietro?”

“Are you awake? Not sleeping.”

“Because it bothers me. What happened to the wound?”

“Well, I accidentally scratched it.”

“·······.”

It’s not just a scratch. These are the fingernail marks of a beastman. Also of a beast.

“Is it the Brotherhood?”

“Well, that’s right.”

“·······.”

Mir realized that Jacques had stopped the Brotherhood while they were sleeping.

“Did you kill him?”

“No. I roughly stunned him and tied him up. I don’t know how much he can restrain him.”

Mir looked at Zach’s wounds and gave a puzzled look.

“It’s not because of cheap feelings like sympathy. It’s just a case in point.”

“Multiple cases?”

“My relationship with the Brotherhood is hostile, but it’s not the worst. That’s because lives don’t add weight.”

When the life of the Brotherhood is touched, that is the worst. Zach talked about the weight of life and why he took the risk.

‘On the subject of killing my mother…’

Mir recalled the most terrifying day of his life.

「I’m sorry. All of a sudden, the fallen rocks…”

Ten years ago, Mir’s mother died in an accident.

To be precise, he got caught up in a collapsed building due to Jacques Pietro’s terror.

would he know? That my mother died as a result of her own terrorism.

In the Mayer family, the chairman’s concubine and his illegitimate son were known to have been spread, but it was an affair that was not publicly announced.

The terrorist incident that even my father, who is now frail, covered up with a shush. Now, only Mir, the daughter of the deceased concubine, is remembering the incident and waiting for revenge.

‘Even if it weren’t for the handcuffs…’

No, Jacques Pietro’s help is needed to save the prisoners who have been sold into human trafficking.

In the first place, it was confirmed that Zach, who was expected to be powerlessly ordinary, has unusual powers. This is a great harvest.

The more you know about Zach, the greater your chances of succeeding in revenge against him.

‘If the strength of the Mayer group… and my skills as a mage improve…’

Even this notorious tycoon who claims to be the owner of a criminal empire can be finally killed.

In the first place, Mir attaches himself to his nephew of the same age and helps the succession competition for the next chairman, because he is looking for a replacement for the chairman who has no intention of taking revenge on Zach.

Mir is steadily taking steps to avenge Jacques Pietro.

Even now, more than 10 years later, slowly and surely.

“I’ll take a look at your wounds.”

So not now. Revenge must be taken into one’s own hands.

At least now that the Brotherhood is after her, Mir wasn’t emotional enough to get rid of Aris and the only person who could keep her safe.

“Brotherhood. When do you think they’ll come?”

Mir asked while tying up the wound on Zach’s side.

“Within a day or two, the siege will be narrowed. It will be faster if you find the colleagues who have been tied up.”

“·······.”

Being caught is said as if it were an established fact. However, the villain named Jacques Pietro, whom Mir has identified so far, is a thoroughly thorough villain.

“Do you have any plans?”

Zach twisted the corner of his mouth and replied in a confident voice.

“I always have a plan.”
