I Was Possessed By An Unknown Manga - Chapter 379
379 – [Side Story] Friendship Is Forever
That’s how the fight with Shigeru’s gang began.
Normally, it would be normal to feel disadvantaged in a situation like most other people, but at least it wasn’t for me.
‘Approximately twenty people.’
Honestly, I can deal with numbers like this even with my eyes closed.
However, there were three people to guard behind me, so it was difficult for me to attack first.
“Die!”
So, while I was watching the situation, thankfully, two gangsters holding wooden blocks attacked first.
“Sigh!”
With a short breath, I stretched out my fist and instantly destroyed two wooden blocks that were struck vertically.
“Puhak!”
A fist straight into the face.
Even though it was barely hit by the government, the person was sent flying as if he had been hit by a dump truck, and the scoundrels who were about to attack him flinched and stopped.
But that was only for a moment, this time guys with iron pipes and chains attacked from all directions.
“Pounce! Since that guy is also human, he won’t be able to block several people with his own two hands anyway!”
It was definitely a logical approach.
But that is impossible by the average person’s standards.
A fighter of my level can attack several times in just one second.
Kooo-
I used Hayate’s breathing method and swallowed the wind deep into my lungs.
Then, as soon as he exhales, he fires long shots in all directions.
Hayate Type 4 Oui
‘Uzumaki (渦巻き)’
These little guys are helpless after getting hit all over their bodies by long hits thrown at furious speeds.
As six people were killed in an instant, the gang that Shigeru had brought in also began to look like they realized something was going wrong.
Then, the guy wearing a mask behind him shouted.
“Ah! That face! I remembered it! The first winner of the NGOF held about 10 years ago! Yu-seong Kim!”
Then, the thugs, who had been confident just a moment ago, started to step back with a scared look.
“What? “That guy is the monster from back then?”
“Defeated the world’s greatest fighters one after another as if breaking a seal?”
“This is ridiculous! We’re all going to die!”
A look of panic in an instant.
Even though 10 years have passed since the competition was held, my name still seems not to be forgotten in people’s minds.
On the other hand, Shigeru, who had led the gang himself, probably didn’t think that I was the same person as Kim Yu-sung, and started denying reality.
“That’s ridiculous!” There’s no way that Nobita is the same person as Kim Yu-sung, who is said to be the world’s greatest fighter! They must just be the same person!”
I looked at Shigeru with pity.
If that guy had eyes, he would be able to tell that I was Kim Yu-sung just by looking at the technique I showed him just now, but he doesn’t seem to want to believe it.
“What does that mean? What on earth?”
“What did Yooseong say?”
On the other hand, Sousuke and Taichi behind me didn’t seem to know what they were talking about.
Ah, these guys were otakus who didn’t really care about social issues…
Feeling a strange sense of relief at that fact, I placed my hands neatly on my waist to put an end to this fight.
And then,
It is a new way to use energy that I learned while fighting Set in Egypt, and Hayate’s 8th technique that I created.
“Hot wind wave!”
It sent a wave of heat.
***
Hayate Type 8
‘Hot wind wave’
To tell the truth, it is a technique created based on the long wind technique commonly found in fighting games.
Due to the nature of martial arts, there are no long-distance countermeasures, so it is sometimes inconvenient, but by developing this technology, I was finally able to obtain a long-distance countermeasure.
As the name suggests, the heat wave is a bullet that condenses hot wind and fires it, so depending on how it is used, it can hit multiple enemies at the same time.
And Shigeru and the gang, hit by the heat wave I fired, were blown backwards and rolled around on the floor, like an umbrella caught in a storm.
A fight that ended literally in an instant.
Shigeru’s gang, who stumbled and barely managed to get up, made eye contact with me and said, Hidebut! He ran away in a huff with a strange scream.
All of his subordinates ran away and Shigeru was left alone.
The guy staggered and got up, but perhaps he had already lost his will to fight, and when he made eye contact with me, he slowly lowered his eyes.
“Get out.”
As soon as I said that, Shigeru ran away without even looking back.
Unlike his confident appearance, it was a truly shabby exit.

After the whole fight was over, Sousuke came to me with a puzzled expression.
“I know that Yooseong has become stronger, but I never thought it would be this much.”
And Taichi, a fighting game enthusiast, grabbed my shoulder with his eyes shining.
“The technique from before! Teach me too!”
“Wait, wait, I’m crazy, so speak one by one.”
Even though I found out that I was a very strong person, I was relieved to see that the two people’s attitude was the same as before.
In fact, if you are too strong, you will be afraid.
That’s why I try to hide my power as much as possible in front of the general public.
People who know me well are not afraid of me, but people who do not know me well are naturally wary no matter where I go.
Maybe his appearance was scary, but even more than that, I could feel that he was afraid of me.
It was also the reason why I did not participate in the NGOF from the second round.
Because I wanted it to be naturally forgotten by people.
‘But 10 years have passed and I never thought there would be someone who remembers me.’
Honestly, it was an unexpected situation, but I’m glad it was resolved well.
“I knew about the NGOF that took place 10 years ago, but I had no idea you were the first winner of that competition.”
I massaged the back of my neck shyly after listening to Sousuke’s words.
“I didn’t try to hide it on purpose. I just didn’t have the right time to say it.”
“I know. You’re not the type of person to lie to your friends.”
Sousuke patted my shoulder while saying that and then said with a grin.
“I can still see the image of you getting beaten up by other kids in middle school. You’ve become stronger, Yoosung.”
“… Well, because I tried.”
When I possessed Kim Yu-sung’s her body her her her, I was able to devote myself to her her exercise her her to that extent because I inherited some of Kim Yu-sung’s memories of her her.
Feeling sorry for myself for being bullied, anger toward Shigeru, and anxiety about the future led me to devote myself to exercising.
In other words, what made me who I am today could be expressed as the numerous discrimination and harassment that Yu-sung Kim experienced in the past.
“No matter what you look like, you are my friend Yoosung. I just want you to know that.”
Sousuke said that and extended his right hand to me.
I stared at the hand Sosuke held out and then held it together.
Taichi, who was next to him, looked at that and said as if he was dumbfounded.
“Are you just going to be friends and leave me alone?”
“Of course, you are friends too.”
When I said that and extended my free hand, Taichi accepted the handshake while raising one eyebrow.
After shaking hands with the two people, I put Rika, who couldn’t stand properly, on my back and spoke.
“Let’s meet again next time we get a chance. I’ll buy food then.”
“So that doesn’t mean we’ll lose contact again?”
“If that was going to be the case, I wouldn’t have even told you the Line ID in the first place.”
When I said that and shrugged my shoulders, the two people nodded.
So we waved our hands and parted ways.
***
This is the story backward.
The story I heard from Naoto later was that Shigeru was betrayed by a colleague she trusted and ended up in prison on drug trafficking charges.
In Japan, the sentences for drug trafficking are quite harsh, so it will probably take quite a while for him to return to society.
After the year-end reunion, I started exchanging Line messages with Sousuke and Taichi in earnest.
Since they were both otakus like before, their main conversation was about subculture.
It was an even more valuable relationship because there were not many people I could comfortably talk to about this kind of thing because of the scary image I had.
Afterwards, we made an appointment for the weekend and gathered together at a card shop we used to frequent in the past and had a heated duel for the first time in a long time.
The owner of the card shop was surprised to see that I had changed so much after seeing him for the first time in a long time, but he seemed convinced when I jokingly told him that I had been growing my dual muscles to reach a higher level .
That’s how serious the boss is about card games.
Anyway, maybe because it’s been a while since I played, but I couldn’t keep up with the latest meta, I lost the game itself, but it was fun just to play with my friends.
When I think back, regardless of whether I win or lose, I think it was nice just to hang out with like-minded friends.
As you get older, it becomes more difficult to play with friends.
‘I hope this friendship will last forever.’
Thinking so, I happily pulled out a sword called Card from the deck.
