Ep101. Future Plan

'We have such an outstanding characters in our Ego Stream!' is how our last terrorist attack showcased.

My mini-terrorism, where I introduced Death Knight to people, had a bigger effect than I thought.

Not only did the news report on the dangers and potentials of Egostic's Villain Union, but for the first time, the amount of mentions about Ego Stream began to increase as much as myself.

The Villain Showcase, which consisted of two consecutive Le Peace Group-Death Nights, certainly had a significant impact. Now, the more powerful villains are added here, the more likely they will be recognized as a force that no one can ignore in Korea.

But, anyway.

“I mean… What is it?”

I kept watching the footage on TV.

Stardus and Death Knight fight last time.

Stardus, who had obviously been fighting at the same level with Death Knight, suddenly awakened like she brought out somewhat tiger inside in the middle and smashed Desik.

As a result, Desik is currently resting again in the capsule. Well, although he seems to be pretty satisfied…

Of course, I still don't know why Stardus suddenly awakened her power.

I heard that she got angry while they were talking… Well, I don't think she awakened because she was so angry when she found out that Egostic wasn't coming, but probably because of Desik's “Muahahaha!”, it seems like his laughter annoyed her. That sounds like the only explanation.

Well, anyway, there's actually no harm for me.

The sooner Stardus get stronger, the better.

But…

“The speed… is too fast.””

I muttered without realizing it.

I mean, she's not even a bean sprout, why is she growing so well? Is she that slow Stardus in the original? It's still early to the mid-second part, but it's already getting as strong as the later half of the second part. It's enough to beat all the villains that will come out.

“Hmm…”

I leaned my chin and thought hard.

At this rate… It might be okay to slow down a little.

Then should we rest until the Wolgwanggyo?

As I continued to think, I heard a knock from the door and Soobin came in.

“Din, are you searching about Stardus again?”

And that was the first thing she said when she saw Stardus on my computer.

Her looking and staring at it, she might think that I'm managing Stardus fanclub, which is a misunderstanding. I'm already done managing the data for the fanclub, and now I'm purely making future plans.

I tried to say a word to protest, but Soobin was faster as she gave me the phone and spoke up first.

“Din, you have a call”

A call?

As I was wondering while looking at it, the caller turned out to be Lee Seola.

Oh, so I left my phone in the living room.

I thanked Subin for handing it over, and answered the phone.

“Hello? Hey, what's up?”

[Excuse me. You didn't forget that we were supposed to meet today, right?]

“…What?”

What? Is it already time?

Turning my head and checking the calendar, I realized that today was two weeks from the day we met last time.

“…Oh! Of course I knew. I was getting ready.”

[…No, you're not. Anyway, the location is where you told me last time, so hurry up and come, okay?]

“Yeah, yeah.”

After hanging up, I got ready to go out.

I'm going to go see Lee Seola.

…Honestly, it doesn't seem to be that long, anyway.

***

A while later.

I was sitting on the top floor of Yuseong Enterprise's branch in Seoul, in the president's office.

“I mean. How can the president's office look exactly the same in Busan and Seoul?”

I came into the president's office and looked around.

And looking at me, Lee Seola smirked.

“What would I have left as much as you do? I kinda flex a bit. “

Can money do all of these?

As I was amazed to see how all the furniture and shelves are located at the exact same places, she got up from her seat with the corners of her mouth still slightly raised and sat opposite me.

“Also, since I'll have a lot of time in Seoul in the future, I just decorated it how I wanted.”

“Why in Seoul?”

“Oh, what do you mean by 'Why'? Of course, all the companies that I have to get rid of… I mean, to buy are gathered here.”

She smiled again, as if she had never said anything and let out that cold-blooded laugh.

“And you're also very helpful. The acquisition is getting easier thanks to the data you handed over.”

“Oh, yeah. That one. There's one more here.”

As I heard her words, I found another USB in my pocket and handed it to her.

“Here. The last file contains all the remaining companies.”

“Oh, my… You don't really have to do this though. I didn't know there were still more. Thank you.”

She took it with a smile.

I emphasized once again to her.

“That's the last one, so you have to take care of the rest. Got it?”

“It's okay, you already gave me enough. But how the hell did you get this? Even the employees under me cannot find anything.”

I smiled at her, who was secretly trying to dig up information from me.

“I'm not an all-around person. I was struggling with the association and the government's encryption using their internal network, but I cannot penetrate the security.”

Technically, it was Seo-eun who cannot, not me.

Anyway, I answered while trembling.

I didn't answer her question, 'How?'

“Hmm…”

And as expected, Lee Seola was quick-witted, she noticed that I was changing the subject.

She stared at me with her chin resting at my one-step answer.

Then she spoke up, slightly smiling.

“Mr. Ego, can I visit your house?”

“No.”

“I can give you 5% of my company's stake.”

…Is that a lot?

As I looked at her with a salty look, she smiled and spoke up again.

“…Well, if you don't know how much that means, it's fine. Anyway, I won't betray you or anything, so I hope you can trust me a little more. It's a bit… upsetting.”

Murmuring her last words softly, she turned away and drank her tea.

“…..”

Looking at her, I thought for a moment.

…I don't think that we're already at that state yet though.

Anyway, if you think about it, there was a description in the original that Lee Seola took care of all the people who believed in her and followed her. Even after the dark secret was exposed.

Well…

As I thought for a moment, she asked me again in a slightly bright tone, returning to her normal expression.

“So, you. What are you going to do next? Death Knight was pretty impressive.”

“Next time?”

After her words, my back leaned against the wall and I slightly fell silent.

……I was going to do another terrorist attack to show them the power of Ego Stream.

But looking at the Stardus' current state, I wonder if it's necessary. I think she's now strong enough, so what's the point? I think I can proceed a bit slower.

Then maybe until the incident breaks out.

“Well, I think I'll take a rest this year.”

“What? That long?”

The girl startled.

Well, it's already autumn anyway. It's not going to be a long break.

…. Of course, my fan cafe will properly go nuts again. If it's getting boring, I guess I should upload a video.

Anyway, after talking a few more words, I asked for the last time before leaving.

“…And stay close with the Stardus from now on.”

We'll be in trouble if you two don't get along.

And you two need to be close so I can hear news about Stardus right away.

“We're already close though?”

“It would be nice if you guys could meet more often.”

“…Well, I see.”

“All right.”

I got up from my seat. It's time to go now.

And, before leaving.

I added a word to Lee Seola, who said goodbye to me as she looked at me from behind.

“Also, from now on… call me Din.””

“What?”

“My name. It's Din, so if you want to call me that, call me that.”

“Oh… Okay!”

I got out of her place after pausing for a moment when she understood my words and answered with a big smile.

……Yeah, it should be fine.

Maybe.

***

“Hmm… Oh. That's right.”

Right after Egostic left.

Lee Seola, who sat in her seat and smiled by herself, suddenly came to her senses and straightened her back.

Yeah, it's not time to feel happy. She has to do what she has to do. Gosh… Well, she has to check the USB that Din gave her.

She came to her senses again and began to work.

Oh. Also, he told her to stay close to Haru, right?

She thought for a moment, then smiled and picked up her phone.

Yeah. It's not really a bad thing to get along with Haru after a long time. Last time, there was something about Egostic, but… Well, she should be generous and approach the girl first.

Haru doesn't even know Egostic's name, but she knows his real name and even hears it herself.

With such a strange relaxing feeling, she called Haru with her phone with a smile on her face.

“Hey. Haru, what are you doing?”
