The Hero Became Obsessed With The Villain [part 2 Complete]

Chapter 236: The President

I'm trying to coax the president.

I had been contemplating what to do to prepare for the Lunar Eclipse. To elicit the instantaneous cooperation of the Association, what should I do? Naturally, I needed to persuade the president. To do that, I had to meet with him.

I made up my mind and quickly put my plan into action.

The result...

"Hello, president."

"...Huh? Who is it?"

"Nice to meet you. I'm Egostic."

In the heart of Seoul, the center of South Korea's Association with its formidable security, president Park Junho stared directly at me as I teleported to his office, his face frozen.

"..."

His face grew slightly paler as if he were screaming in silence. Well, he probably never imagined that a villain would suddenly break into his office.

After a moment of being stunned, he sighed heavily as if the ground had collapsed beneath him, then turned back to his paperwork. He muttered to me in a voice drained of energy.

"Ah... Yes, why have you come?"

"Huh? You're not that surprised. Aren't you going to call the heroes or anything?"

As I smirked, walking towards the sofa, the president, who had been sitting at his desk, whispered with a weary voice that sounded like he had aged ten years.

"...So you saying you broke through the Association's security, what can you possibly do now?"

Once I had successfully entered, it didn't matter what I could do anymore. I had already cut off all lines of communication.

In other words, he had given up already. Well, that's the president for you – always quick in judgment and action.

"So, why did you come here? Are you here to deal with me?"

"Hahaha, no. Why would I do that? I don't need to do anything to someone like the president, who is doing a great job."

I sat down on the sofa in front, laughing, and said so. That's right, my primary goal was to persuade the president. To do that, I had to expose my weaknesses. That meant revealing my cards.

"So, I did not come here to make an enemy out of you. If anything, we're on the same side."

"...Huh?"

"Let me be straightforward."

I smiled for a moment, then returned to a serious expression and said, "South Korea is in danger."

"And to prevent that, we need your help."

"..."

He quietly listened to my words.

I see. This is where it begins. Convincing the president to have complete trust in me. I need to unravel the story to do that. The power of persuasion comes from the narrative.

So, I needed to start from here.

"First, let me speak."

"First of all, I never really wanted to become a villain."

"?"

The president frowned as if he didn't quite understand my words.

Seeing his reaction, I slowly continued.

After a serious conversation with the president.

"So... you never really wanted to be a villain. Your true intention is to save the country?"
