The Tough Guy Hides the Villainess - Chapter 135



135 – The Black Hole Swallowed the Spaceship!

135 – The Black Hole Swallowed the Spaceship!

Inonoi and Baonoi are nymphs.

Nymphs of clear stream water.

Both were forest fairies born in the forest, originally good friends, but at some point, they became very hostile to each other.

“Inonoi is a fool…!”

“Why is this Inonoi a fool…!”

“Just because…!”

“Even the gentle Inonoi gets angry when hearing such words…! Then it’s a duel…!”

They were staying at my house, Han Namjin’s, and quarreling whenever they were bored. Watching them fight wasn’t boring because the content of their duels changed every moment.

Today, their main duel content was 「Eating Candy Quickly」.

“Nymph Technique, Eating Candy Recklessly!”

“Nymph Technique, Eating Candy Recklessly!”

Dududududududu-.

Nymphs stuffing grape-flavored candies into their mouths recklessly.

It was quite impressive to see several bags of candy disappear simultaneously.

“Muhuhu, the one who ate five bags first is this Baonoi…! Therefore, this duel is won by this Baonoi…!”

“This Inonoi ate first…! Baonoi is a liar…!”

“What lie did this Baonoi tell…? The liar is Inonoi…! Inonoi often said they would come to play in the forest but never did…!”

“This Inonoi had circumstances and couldn’t go out…! Trapped in the Great Labyrinth, couldn’t move…! It’s not really a lie…!”

Chattering endlessly without a break.

Anyway, the important thing is that I safely escaped from Gusejun’s church and returned home to listen to the nymphs’ complaints and grievances.

About an hour ago.

I witnessed the true nature of the terrorist Gusejun at the church.

He possessed the concept of a “Savior” who redeems people and the concept of “Time” that he could manipulate at will.

How to deal with such a being.

The thread of his vulnerability lies in seizing the next opportunity.

“So, I first escaped the church with a ‘Southern Counterattack’.”

“Are you saying you ran away…?”

“Ah! Ran away?”

Bao Noi, you fool, what a thing to say!

“It wasn’t running away, it was a counterattack! There’s no such thing as running away in a man’s dictionary.”

“Indeed, that’s impressive…! This Inonoi must also counterattack instead of running away from now on…!”

Listening to the admiration of the nymphs, I looked at my smartwatch.

The time on my smartwatch was 11 PM.

And the clock at our house showed 10 PM.

There was roughly a one-hour time difference.

This indicated one thing.

‘It means that time was flowing differently only in that church.’

It seemed that the concept of “Time” that Savior possessed was an ability that affected only specific places or spaces.

In other words, the range within which Savior could control time was limited. If I were to fight Savior again, that point would be the key to solving the problem.

I entered the Awakener-exclusive site to see if there was any useful information.

Its name was “Awakener Gallery”.

“Title: Did you see the L-Mart terror this time?”

“Content: It seems that the artificial awakening agent developed by the government was used.”

└So, does that mean the government is now terrorizing its own citizens?

└└No, it seems like it was something stolen from the government.

“Title: It seems that the artificial awakening agent was stolen by Lieutenant Ha Gi-hoon?”

“Content: This person, Lieutenant Ha Gi-hoon, was a soldier of civilian origin who was deployed during the discovery of the Great Labyrinth.”

└Does that mean a retired soldier stole government property and gave it to terrorists in exchange for cooperation?

└The treatment of soldiers is so poor that he betrayed them when he saw the opportunity.

The “Holy Water” that was spread at L-Mart.

Did Old Man Heo give it to the “Genesis Holy War”?

‘Old man, what on earth are you thinking?’

I had been pondering in front of the computer for a long time, and before I knew it, it was late.

Midnight.

The living room was unusually quiet, so I glanced towards it. Just a while ago, Inonoi and Baonoi had been playfully bickering, but now they were lying on the floor, asleep, hugging each other.

They looked like squirrels surviving the winter in a narrow burrow with each other’s warmth.

“Muhuhu, this Baonoi found the bottle cap first…”

“This Inonoi also wants the sponsored bottle cap…”

Shhh-

I covered them with a blanket.

“Getting along well.”

Knock, knock.

At that moment, someone knocked on our door.

Creak-

When I opened the door, there stood Yuyeoreum.

“I’m hungry, bring me something to eat.”

It was the dark side of Yuyeoreum. Actually, it didn’t matter which side it was.

To confront Gu Sejun, strengthening my concept of “Leap” was essential, and there was no one more knowledgeable about strengthening concepts than Yuyeoreum.

“Nuuuh.”

She sat on my sofa without permission and stretched lazily.

Swooosh-

As I was admiring her legs stretched out below her dolphin shorts, Yuyeoreum spoke.

“I’ll get straight to the point. I’m facing a major obstacle. Han Namjin, I desperately need your help. To find the location of my biological parents, I urgently need your help.”

“Help?”

“Give me your seed!”

Pop-!

Yuyeoreum suddenly pounced on me.

Was this how a rabbit felt when pounced on by a puma in the dark? She grabbed me tightly and bit my neck, and I felt like I was about to shed tears.

“Guaaah!”

I’m being devoured!

Physically! Literally!

Thinking I had to get out of this situation, I decided to calm Yuyeoreum down first.

But how the hell do I get out of this steel-hard, invincible b*tch?

The method is simple.

Awaken the “Light Yoo Yeoreum” within.

And awakening Light Yoo Yeoreum wasn’t difficult either.

Just flip the switch.

The switch that’s attached twice to her chest.

“You wench! How dare you seduce a man so lewdly!”

*Thwack!*

I squeezed Yoo Yeoreum’s chest with all my strength.

Stimulating Yoo Yeoreum’s concept of propriety, so that Light Yoo Yeoreum would pop out and prevent the dark personality from running rampant.

But this time was different.

“If you squeeze that hard, it hurts!”

“What the…!? Why isn’t Light Yoo Yeoreum coming back!”

“Ah, that girl? She probably won’t wake up for a few days. I’ve tied her up tight deep within the darkness of my heart, my inner self. Which means it’s just us two here.”

“This Baonoi is also here, thing… ! But you can ignore me, thing…!”

“This Inonoi is starting to get interested, thing…!”

The nymphs who were sleeping seemed to have woken up because of the commotion, but they didn’t seem to have any intention of helping me.

I feed them and give them a place to sleep, and they’re useless!

“Hanamjin, this isn’t a bad deal for you either, right? I’m not exactly asking you to date me. Just one night of wild passion is enough. Or do you just not like me?”

“It’s not that I don’t like you. But I like Seo Gaeul.”

“Seriously, you’re incredibly picky. If that’s what you think, then there’s nothing I can do. I’ll be working for the ‘New Order’ from now on. Today will probably be the last day we meet like this.”

“Yoo Yeoreum, you’re going to ‘New Order’? That’s not going to end well.”

“I know.”

*Swish-*

Yoo Yeoreum moved away from me.

She laughed as if she felt relieved.

“That’s the deal. Why, has your thinking changed a little now that I’m saying I’m going to ‘New Order’? The night is still young. There’s plenty of time.”

“But you don’t like me that much. How much resentment would a child born without love, only to become the Red King, have for the world?”

“It’s not that there’s no love. I think I quite, like you.”

A moment of silence flowed.

It was because Yu Yeoreum’s story made me think a lot.

The conclusion came faster than I thought.

“I don’t like people who lie to themselves.”

# # #

When I stepped outside, the moonlight was dazzling.

Whoosh-.

Yu Yeoreum shivered in the weather that felt colder than expected.

Tonight’s plan failed again.

It was because Han Namjin’s defense was stronger than expected.

‘How could he reject a charming woman like me?’

Yu Yeoreum knew she was attractive.

Her body, toned yet soft like a foxtail, was truly a blessed physique.

Her face was also quite pretty.

But Han Namjin rejected Yu Yeoreum and even gave her a sharp rebuke.

“You don’t like people who lie to themselves?”

It wasn’t exactly a lie when Yu Yeoreum said she liked Han Namjin.

‘I like Han Namjin. Quite a bit.’

It could be called a strange bad relationship that started with a kidnapping, but in the end, Han Namjin’s story was all correct.

As Han Namjin said, monsters began to swarm the world, and it was heading in an unpredictable direction.

But none of that mattered.

Because Yu Yeoreum’s life had been filled with uncertainty for a long time.

However, thinking of Han Namjin made her feel quite reassured.

No matter what problem arose, it seemed like he would somehow handle it.

And he actually did.

Also, it was easy to form a strange sense of kinship and empathy among people with many deficiencies.

They resembled each other.

Yu Yeoreum knew that Han Namjin was a great spoiled child and a lonely person. The fact that he picked up strange monsters and brought strange nymphs home was proof of that.

‘Han Namjin can’t stand the quiet solitude. Yet he calls himself a man. He says he doesn’t like people who lie to themselves, but he’s the one lying the most.’

Swipe, swipe-.

Yu Yeoreum roughly wiped off the makeup on her lips with the back of her hand.

A bit frustrated.

“I even tried putting on makeup for once. It was useless.”

“It seems the plan has failed.”

A foreigner approached Yoo Yeoreum.

A blonde Englishwoman named Louise, wearing a tight-fitting riding outfit that revealed her figure and a sword sheath at her waist.

Her ears were slightly longer than those of ordinary people, and it was said that she was a half-elf with fairy blood, just like Yoo Yeoreum.

Louise spoke in awkward but humble Korean.

“Then let’s go to ‘New Order’ now. If you, the sister with the concept of ‘light,’ join us, everyone will surely welcome you.”

Yoo Yeoreum had heard that she had to either seduce Han Namjin or cooperate with ‘New Order’ to get information about her biological parents.

If Yoo Yeoreum cooperated with the new world government ‘New Order,’ her adoptive father Yoo Dogwan would be recommended to join the ‘Council of Sages’ in return.

“Your first mission will probably be to retrieve the ‘witch.’ According to the Chinese girl, the witch is with your friends. Can you persuade them?”

“It’s impossible to persuade them.”

“Then, unfortunately, a violent conflict will be unavoidable.”

‘So Seo Gaeul, Baek Yeoul, and Han Namjin will become my enemies from now on.’

Yoo Yeoreum thought of her biological parents, whom she had never met.

Turning her friends into enemies to see the parents who left her at the orphanage…

It was a dilemma.

“By the way, we have obtained intelligence that the rude terrorists of ‘Genesis Temple’ are targeting your family. If you want your adoptive mother and brother to be safe, it’s best to receive our protection.”

Yoo Yeoreum’s adoptive mother and brother.

They were not blood-related, but they were very precious to Yoo Yeoreum.

For their safety, Yoo Yeoreum had no choice but to make a decision.

“I still won’t go to ‘New Order.’”

“Why not?”

“Because I don’t want to lie to myself anymore. I’m done being used by others. I want to live my own way. I’ll protect my family with my own hands.”

“That’s admirable. Honestly, I shouldn’t say this, but ‘New Order’ isn’t exactly a noble and righteous organization. Especially the ‘Council of Sages’ has a lot of shady dealings. I wish you the best, sister of light.”

Contrary to her expectations, the Englishwoman Louise respected Yoo Yeoreum’s decision without resistance.

Yoo Yeoreum felt a strange sense of kinship and camaraderie with her fellow half-elf, but at the same time, she felt it was a waste of time.

So Yoo Yeoreum returned to Han Namjin’s house.

From noble mtl dot com

“What, why are you back?”

Han Namjin, slightly flustered.

Seeing him in pajamas, was he getting ready for bed?

Yu Yeoreum grabbed Hanamjin’s shoulders.

“You’re right. People who lie suck. Especially people who lie to themselves are even less attractive. So, I won’t lie to myself anymore either.”

Smack! Smack!

Yu Yeoreum slapped Hanamjin’s cheek twice.

“This is payback for tricking me and kidnapping me without permission.”

Hanamjin, struck by Yu Yeoreum’s steel-like palm, instantly bled from the nose.

“That’s a bit much for payback.”

But, Yu Yeoreum wasn’t finished yet.

“And this is, for saving me and helping me.”

Yu Yeoreum pressed her lips to Hanamjin’s.

“What!?”

Even Hanamjin, who was always relaxed and eccentric, seemed flustered by Yu Yeoreum’s honest action.

Well, he had no choice but to be flustered.

Sluuurp-!

Yu Yeoreum sucked on Hanamjin’s lips like a powerful vacuum cleaner.

Thanks to that, Hanamjin’s face twisted into a swirling shape.

“Gwaaah!!!!”

Hanamjin screamed as he was sucked in like a spaceship caught in a black hole.

Seeing that, the nymphs made a fuss.

“That is the ‘Core Secret Aggressive Kissing’ technique…!”

“Yeoreum is displaying a very high level of ‘Core Secret’ skills…!”
