I’m Not Your Dad, I’m a Villain

EP.45 EP3. Observation class (3)

The first meeting was at the venue where I saw the flyer… … .

No, it wasn’t a meeting at the time.

I was one of the thousands of spectators there, and she was the main character on the stage.

‘Is your hatred really true?’

Yeah, she didn’t look at me at the time.

the whole, not one.

Those two eyes looked at everyone in the field, and they wanted to embrace everything.

‘Are you prepared to forsake all that you have achieved for the sake of that hatred?’

If it’s obvious, it’s obvious.

The credibility will be even lower as it is the words of someone who claims nothing but evil.

‘Then don’t be afraid. Even if the world will deny it, I will affirm you. Even if the world throws you away, I will take you into this hand.’

Nevertheless, I… … .

And we couldn’t take our eyes off her.

‘No matter what hardships and adversity may come, I will remember you and swear that I will spend eternity with you.’

It was simply because I understood it instinctively.

That being looking down on us never tells lies.

He felt the sincerity of his youthful power in those words, so he was drawn to him and followed her.

“Among those here, there must have been no one who did not look forward to today.”

That voice that touched my heart.

At this moment, a young girl’s vocal cords were borrowed and embodied in this place.

“Even those with leftover parents would be ashamed to see them ruined the stage in this way.”

Of course, even if his charisma stands out, in the end it’s just his eyes.

Although he may be able to focus attention on his young and small body, he will not be able to demonstrate the spirit that can lead all people and overwhelm them.

“But have you not prepared much for today?”

Still, she is not discouraged.

As if the power she possessed proves that her existence was not just created by her followers.

“If the words that come out of your mouth become weeping rather than the fruit of your efforts, you will most likely regret this moment forever.”

Yes, the inside of her hasn’t changed at all since then.

The only thing that has changed is that the place where I am standing is not on top of the public, but in the same position as them.

“Still, that’s all to show Mom and Dad… … .”

Did such equality even create a sense of resistance?

When a girl spoke in a crawling voice as if she was about to cry at any moment, the atmosphere of the children around her began to darken at the same time.

“Okay, what’s the use without my mother?”

“It has already been all in vain… … .”

As if to teach you that this silence now is only about procrastinating for a while.

“Look there.”

But the boss categorically denied it, and pointed his finger off the stage.

Towards the tripod standing in front of the spectators.

“… … camera?”

Yes, it was the camera.

The video filmed through that object was to be delivered to the parents later to decorate a part of the memory.

“The time that has passed does not come back, but there is a way to leave such a time as a momentary memory. Do you want this moment that will become a memory in the future become a sea of ​​tears?”

Efforts are not in vain just because the audience is gone.

If this moment can be preserved, meaning exists.

It may be ruined now, but in the future.

“… … I don’t know, like that.”

But there are children here.

For those who have not lived for a long time, the importance of remembering the past was a concept that did not reach the heart.

“What do you care about later? Dad broke his promise to me again.”

“And, my mother always comes back injured.”

“My dad too. If you leave in such a hurry, you will be in and out of the hospital for a while.”

“What if I get seriously injured again this time?”

“I want to go see Dad.”

The feeling of betrayal, the worry, and the anxiety that you might never come back… … .

It leaks out one by one from the children’s mouths, and then the murmur swirls around like a whirlpool, spreading anxiety around them.

The moment when the planned chaos, which had been delayed for a while, reappears.

“It will be fine.”

nevertheless.

“Don’t worry. I’m sure you’ll come back safely.”

Nevertheless, she does not give in and tries to beat the young and mature boys and girls.

“It’s not okay! If Daddy gets hurt again… … .”

“Semi.”

A boss who calls for a girl who screams in anger.

Yes, it was the girl’s name in her mouth. She remembered the name of the girl in front of me.

A single individual belonging to the ‘public’ that surrounds him.

Unlike when I heard the speech… … .

“Do you not trust me?”

But it is so obvious.

The two eyes facing each other in front of me will definitely be reflected on the girl in front of me.

Just like the days I enjoyed my daily life with her.

“uh?”

“Isn’t this body in front of you unsure… … . So I asked.”

“…….”

“… Yes, it is the same.”

Did you read trust from that silence?

The boss, who turned away from the girl, smiled contentedly and began to turn my gaze to the surroundings again.

“Just as we trust each other, they will all trust those around them. Even unreasonable tasks that would normally not be possible could be done with each other’s backs.”

Those words had power.

As if teaching you that it is not just an illusion, but certainty.

They claim that trusting each other, helping each other, and dividing responsibilities is a privilege only heroes do not have as villains.

“So you don’t have to be afraid. Nothing has changed, we just have to direct the stage the way we did the first time.”

Yes, she was the one who fought justice before anyone else.

He was a person who wanted to understand them while competing with them, so he is convinced that what he is saying is not wrong.

Even if they are clumsy and urgent, they will never be defeated, even if they disappoint those they need to protect.

The followers of the group that defeated him will not despair over this.

“Beyond merely adorning the memories of the past, as a triumph to celebrate their glorious victory.”

After he finished speaking, the boss’s gaze turned to the surroundings again.

No one opened their mouth hastily. No, I was just looking at her.

Not only the children, but also the teachers and the few remaining parents… … .

Of course, the words that came out of the mouth of a 7-year-old child at best. You may be able to accept the present words only as an illusion by looking at their appearance.

But what if we accept it as a fake?

The confusion that should have been foreordained was completely silenced by the atmosphere she evoked at this moment.

“Nella.”

In that silence, she called out the name of the person she called her close friend.

Nella wakes up late and trembles.

The boss whispered softly towards her, as always.

“Can I ask you to lead?”

“Ah yes!”

Nella, who had been at risk before, also came to her senses and began to take the lead again.

Eventually, the children’s eyes turned from the boss to Nella.

As she focused on the person representing the class, she felt the gaze and began to see Nella’s shoulders sinking heavily.

but don’t succumb

Even though he was shy, there was a person by his side who insisted that what he was doing at this moment was not wrong.

“Forget about the pain of giving birth~♬”

Starting with the first verse of the prepared song, the children began to sing the song one after another.

The lyrics deal with the love a child has for his or her parents.

Unfortunately, it was not known where it was passed down orally.

It is only vaguely understood that one of several cultures lost after the cataclysm has been passed on to this academy, and that it has become a tradition.

“It’s okay~”

As I sat quietly listening to the song, someone sitting next to me showed a sarcastic smile.

An old man with a humorous look with a long beard. Isri’s creator was Bruce Lee.

“It’s really easy~ To make things go so smoothly in the yard that ruined the most anticipated feast, your daughter has such great leadership.”

“Oh, no. You are exaggerating.”

“Of course, the feeling of age in what you say seems to have been greatly influenced by cartoons… … .”

“… … hahahaha.”

He smiled vaguely and ignored his words.

Yes, it would be nice if you could understand that and move on.

“By the way, aren’t you a member of the association? I thought he’d go after the heroes… … .”

“Chuckle, why would I, as a non-combatant, go to the field?”

Still, I wanted to return my words just in case, so Bruce Lee accepted my words without a doubt.

His gaze was directed towards a girl who was still on stage.

“Initially, I took part in this observation class to observe Isri. There’s no way I can’t keep my eyes on Isri now, is there?”

Clearly, he was easy to forget because of his arrogant personality, but he was a person who could be called an authority in the engineering world.

Naturally, he is more interested in his masterpiece than his work in the field.

The emotion he felt as he looked up at the stage was nothing but admiration.

“However, I didn’t know it would turn out like this. If it were Isri I knew, I would follow the heroes. . I hope they choose to be in the arms of the children without causing any problems.”

Yes, he was a professional maker of equipment to support heroes.

Of course, that artificial human must also be a ‘weapon’ created to assist the heroes.

Nevertheless, the reason he chose to be here without taking part in the sweeping up of the villains is probably because he was convinced that things would be sorted out even if he did not come forward.

Don’t worry, they’ll come back safely… … .

Because I was moved by the boss’s opinion.

“Is it possible to get along like that without being human?”

As if he had felt something from him, the two eyes staring at the stage gradually began to lose their mellowness.

Is it because of the feeling that those words sound unusual?

“Yeah, really… … .”

No, she’s not human as well.

Even so, I didn’t feel anxious at this moment.

“I’m glad everyone seems to get along well.”

After the speech, the Transcendent entered their arms.

Because now I’m just a girl singing a song.

That would also teach her that she had completely melted into society, but nevertheless, the touching feelings in a corner of her heart did not disappear.

Because I know that this stillness is also a result of her creation.

Going further….

Because I realized that it was my mission to spread this awareness to the world.

***

It was a little confusing, but the performance ended safely, and the class was back on track.

As expected, the parents returned safely after resolving the situation.

From what I’ve heard, he seemed to be a pretty famous villain for robbing a bank, but even he said that he had no choice but to be defeated when dozens of people flocked to him.

Hagi, no matter how strong you are, there is no business in Taguri.

Anyway, in that way, the parents returned to class safely, and after that, they were faithful to the observation class and watched their children take the class.

Yes, until the last parent-teacher consultation, the result was very satisfactory.

“Dad!”

“Yes, my daughter. Have you been waiting well?”

The consultation is also slowly coming to an end.

James, who had just left the consultation room, the health room, hugged his daughter Nella, who was waiting outside, and smiled brightly.

“Did you finish the consultation safely?”

“Yes, I was relieved that the teacher seems to care a lot about Nella.”

Saying that, James stroked Nella in his arms.

The joy drawn on his face must have come from a sense of relief that the consultation went well.

“Then we have some work to do after school, so excuse me first. I also hope that Mr. Brad will finish the consultation well.”

“Ah yes. Be careful and go.”

After the consultation, James leaves the campus with Nella.

At that moment, a voice began to be heard from the half-open door of the health room.

“Moa’s father, please come in.”

“Oh, yes.”

Finally, the last turn has come.

Of course, it’s parental counseling, so what’s the point?

“Then I’ll be back, so my daughter waits in the classroom for a while… … .”

It took a while to shake off the tension with such a light heart.

Suddenly, as I was about to enter the health room, I realized that my sleeve was being pulled by something.

The boss grabbed my sleeve.

With his head bowed, his hands trembled slightly.

“boss?”

“…No, nothing.”

The boss puts his hand away from my sleeve after a moment of steaming.

Afterwards, the boss who looked up at me gave me a faint smile.

It was a face that showed concern.

To the extent that it contrasts with that mature figure who calmed the children in the morning.

“Please, I hope you have a safe trip. my father.”

“Ah yes.”

Why are you making that face?

Coincidentally, because he had a consultation ahead of him, he did not dare to ask about him and entered the health room.

“Nice to meet you. So… … . You’re Gingerbread, Moa’s protector, right?”

“Yes, nice to meet you, Mr. Faust.”

Afterwards, he met a man in a white robe with a good-looking impression.

It’s a pretty friendly atmosphere, but I couldn’t forget the words the boss left while I was talking to him.

‘I wish you good luck’.

It’s just parental counseling, so why did you leave such a warning?
