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

Chapter 363

A message from Stardus out of the blue.

...Virtually the first contact since our last meeting, I swallowed hard and texted.

[What's up?]

A few moments later, a message came back to me with a beep.

>[Just...missing you].

"Huh..."

I gulped at Stardus' reaction.

Ever since she'd confessed her feelings to me, she'd become distant. I wonder if it's a reaction to all the time she's been holding back.

>[What are you doing not sleeping?]

When she asked me that, I simply replied.

[....I just couldn't sleep, I was thinking about this and that.]

>[Really? What's wrong?]

...Before I could even ask Stardus why she wasn't sleeping, the reply came quickly.

What's going on...?

[Nothing much. I'm just wondering what to do next. I've got a lot on my mind.]

I thought as I sent it.

...Now that I think about it, I should also tell Stardus that the powers of those with abilities will soon run out of control. That way, she won't be surprised when that day comes.

That's when I thought to myself.

>[If you have any concerns, please let me know.]

>[I'm your... girlfriend now]

>[(embarrassed teddy bear emoji)]

"Pfft."

I gulped down my water, my throat burning unnecessarily at her response.

Girlfriend... Girlfriend...

"Girlfriend... I guess."

I fanned myself with my hand, feeling my face heat up slightly.

...Stardus. That Stardus is my girlfriend.

Girlfriend. It's been years since I last heard such a cute word.

[I get it, haha]

>[Nods]

>[(nodding teddy bear emoji)]

I looked at the white bear emoji she was using, and momentarily stifled a laugh.

Stardus...Was this how she sounded online? It was so cute, unlike in real life, where she was a bit of a cold-hearted beauty queen.

'No... Now that I think about it, was she cute in real life?'

As I seriously thought about it, I realized that she was right and this was my chance.

A chance to tell Stardus what's going to happen next. Phase 4's ability power-up. The "Inflation" event, as it was originally called.

[Oh, and Stardus, there's something else I want to tell you.]

>[What? And don't call me Stardus, call me Haru...]

[Yes, Haru, lol. Anyway, that's what I heard...]

With that, I told her what was going to happen.

Roughly speaking, experts in the dark say that the abilities of all villains will suddenly be enhanced in the future.

As such, the world could become chaotic.

>[Okay, this is bad....]

And she easily believed me.
