“Huff… Huff…”
The Teleporter, Kim Hak-chul moved his body while exhaling rough breaths.
Teleportation was supposed to be very easy for him, but his condition was not normal at the moment.
Holding the wound with his hand to prevent blood from flowing out of his abdomen. Continuously.
His vision was already clouded. His body feels heavy. He feels like he is going to die.
All of a sudden, he felt a surge of anger.
What did I do wrong to be in this situation?
I only robbed a few banks.
Of course, I killed a few people in the process, but it was their fault. He was doing so well, so why did they block him and make a fuss?
He kept teleporting forward. But perhaps because his body hurt and his head was spinning. It was not easy for him to move.
Normally, teleportation is only possible when the desired location or coordinates are clearly recognized in his head. However, as he was shot for the first time in his life, Kim Hak-chul’s consciousness has already reached a level where he cannot make a rational judgment anymore.
He just went and went to the furthest place he could see in front of him. Honestly, even that was not easy either, it was getting cloudy in front of him.
“AAAAH!”
“W-What the!”
“Argh!”
Now he is in the middle of the town.
In this crowded place, it was strange that people were not surprised when a bleeding man appeared in the crowd, flashing and flashing.
But he still had to keep going forward, and forward.
Because of that man chasing him from behind.
“Yes, yes, hello! It is me, Egostic!”
“Yes, yes. I am busy because I am working at the moment. Oh, my!”
“Don’t be surprised. I will not hurt you!”
“I am only cleaning up trash for our citizens, so please feel free to do your job!”
The voice from behind.
The despicable one, Egostic.
Of course, the teleporter Kim Hak-chul knew him.
In fact, no one in the Republic of Korea does not know Egostic, even if they only heard about him from other people.
Last week, on TV, on the Internet, even the people he met, everyone talked about Egostic.
Kim Hak-chul knew what Egostic caused. That he assassinated two villains.
But he was not particularly wary of Egostic.
Have you ever seen anyone not going out because they are afraid of being struck by lightning?
He thought… perhaps those villains and Egostic had some personal grudges.
Rationally, he thought the guy did not kill them for no reason.
So Kim Hak-chul was confident.
He was confident that Egostic would not try to kill him.
He was sure Egostic knew nothing about him.
And even if Egostic tried to kill him, he would be able to escape with his power.
But that certainty, in this moment, was betraying Kim Hak-chul.
Who in the world would have expected a man holding a gun to pop out and shoot him when he was resting at home?
And the unexpected result was coming back to him desperately.
“Come on out! I am going to catch a piece of trash today!”
“A-class villain Teleporter! Let’s go to hell now!”
“Trash goes in the trash can, and the trashy villain should go to his lord’s side!”
Egostic talked nonsense like a psychopath.
He screamed out loud like a madman as if he wanted everyone to hear it.
Kim Hak-chul was more afraid of those kinds of guys than anything else.
To be exact, his unabated voice.
Even when he was teleporting, the voice continued to be heard without diminishing.
Kim Hak-chul continued to move with a groan.
“Ugh…”
He slowly felt everything spinning in front of his eyes.
It was a miracle to get here with a shot in the first place.
If he didn’t have the teleportation ability, and if his body, which could sense death, didn’t wring it to his last power…
He was probably already dead.
“But oh, sadly*! I guess your life is up to here!” *TN: Oh-hoh統制라 (Oh-hoh Tongjaera): An exclamation used in a seriously distressed or sad situation
Hearing his nonsense words from behind, Kim Hak-chul finally collapsed.
His physical strength, eventually, became unable to teleport.
The man exhaled a harsh breath and bowed his head, his shadow fell on him.
He raised his head to identify the shadow, a villain smirking behind his half-mask.
“Teleporter! You told me you were guilty.”
“Huff… Huff… S-Save me. Please don’t kill me…”
“Oh! Don’t kill you?”
He looked around as he heard the man’s words.
People were surrounding them.
Egostic asked loudly to the surrounding citizens in a theatrical voice.
“Everyone! This garbage right here stole billions of other people’s properties and killed four good citizens! Should we spare the life of someone who slaughtered someone’s husband, someone’s dad, someone’s friend, someone’s son, someone’s innocent?”
“Kill him!”
“Kill him!”
The shouts of the excited citizens rang out wanting him to be killed.
Someone asked them whether Egostic was trying to flood hundreds of innocent sons and daughters, but none of them said anything in front of a villain with a gun. Because their lives are precious.
Standing in the middle of the shouting demand to kill him, Egostic shrugged his shoulders as he looked down at Kim Hak-chul and smirked.
“They are telling me to kill you though?”
“P-Please, just this time. Please have mercy on me…”
“Really? Just this time? Yeah, just this time… Do you want me to save you?”
Kim Hak-chul’s expression brightened up instantly with the positive response from Egostic.
But before Kim Hak-chul could speak up, Egostic had already pointed his gun at him.
“I’m sorry, Hak-chul. But there is no such thing!”
As soon as Egostic ended his sentence with a laugh, Bang! the sound of the gun rang out somewhere.
That was the last memory of the A-class villain Teleporter, Kim Hak-chul.

“Phew…”
The teleporter died after another shot.
After he died, people around us began to cheer and applaud.
“Thank you. Thank you.”
I exaggeratedly bowed my head as their applause got louder.
But… Uh…
Uh, guys. I am formally a villain.
So… Why are you guys standing around me?
This world is surprisingly similar to my world, except that they have superpowers, including heroes and villains.
But every time like this makes me realize that I came from a different world.
When? When a person was shot dead right in front of your eyes but people still clapped and enjoyed it.
I mean, he was shot in front of their eyes. When someone dies, we should be scared and scream… Shouldn’t we?
But it feels strange to see people smiling and clapping in front of a bleeding dead body as if nothing happened.
They were like people who enjoyed the public executions during the Middle Ages. Honestly, I see no difference.
Perhaps in this world, people have gotten used to death because of the fights between heroes and villains. Or is there another reason?
No, wait. Put everything aside, I am a villain. I am not a hero, so what am I doing?
Looking back at them after a grin, I said to those who were still clapping.
“Thank you! Thank you, everyone! But aren’t I a villain, too? What are you going to do if I suddenly shoot the people standing here?”
People were startled and stopped after hearing my words.
Okay, they seem to have regained their common sense. Now?
Anyway, I didn’t mean to scare them so I added.
“I’m just kidding, guys! I don’t just randomly hurt innocent citizens! Whenever I do something, I make a notice in advance and call a hero, so don’t worry! You don’t have to worry, I’m just here to clean up a ‘bad’ villain today!”
People were relieved as I explained.
I mean, if you are going to be scared like that, you should not have come close in the first place…
[If you are done, come out. Before the heroes come.]
Seo-eun’s voice rang from my ears.
Right, it is time to go.
Ugh, but I am so tired after teleporting continuously, and I have to go back the same distance. I am going to die.
As I sighed and tried to get up, a loud voice came from the sky.
“Egostic!”
Surprised by the voice, I looked up and…
“Stardus?”
Wait, why are you here?
