41 – Chapter 2. Artificial and natural demons (4)

Hot pink is fine.

It is a personal preference for heroes to decide their personal color, and this preference is something that should not be touched carelessly.

-My costume is deep black, please.

-What? Isn’t black a bit of a villainous color?

-what? Did you say that black, my favorite right now, is a villainous color? Kururu, turn black!

– No, what crazy?

A person with a special ability is like a delicate piece of glass, and if touched carelessly, everyone will turn black.

Therefore, when heroes decide on their special ability suits, they should not carelessly argue from the sidelines.

hot pink.

It is a color to be respected.

Some people prepare hero costumes in rainbow colors, but hot pink is quite a classy color.

“Hot pink. It’s good. The color is clear, and even in the dark, dangerous people can easily recognize ‘hero’ when they see it.”

“Yes?”

“But I’m not a Doge Rider.”

“why?”

“Because he’s a villain.”

Hot pink is fine.

Light pink is fine too.

But not the Doge Rider.

“No matter what the design of Doji Rider is, Dokkaebi is a villain. Which hero in the world is said to copy the villain’s costume?”

“I’m sorry, sir. People don’t think so.”

“What?”

“Everyone felt ‘cool’ after seeing the goblin’s design, and now everyone is making new hero costumes based on the goblin’s design.”

“no.”

what nonsense is this

“Oh, didn’t you know? It’s been a hot topic in the past week.”

“I was working in the basement of the library reading books, so I wasn’t interested in that kind of thing. Didn’t that kind of thing come out often on the news?”

“In the student-only community, discussions were very lively, especially for male students.

I understand.

Originally, it was transformed into a design that stimulated the sensibility of that time but did not look tacky at all even in 2025.

Did you add excessive variations to break away from the existing design? No.

Is it a design that is too simple and makes the viewer laugh to protect a certain concept? No.

Is it a look that makes people who see it for the first time feel disgusted with ‘Damn, what is that?’ That too No.

Every man has a transformation hero in his heart at least once, and I actually transformed like that.

“Sejong Academy now looks like a villain version. Does this make sense? How can you say that you conceive and wear a villain costume in the field of education?”

“It’s not a villain’s costume. It’s a hero’s costume to deal with monsters and demons from outer space. It has a bit of a machine-like feel to it.”

“her.”

I was amazed at all the designs Yoon Yi-sun showed.

“Didn’t this come out before we were even born?”

“Yes. They are the epitome of Korean-style heroes who came out in 2000, before the upheaval of the world, and gained sensational popularity.”

Few people would know.

Knowing this, I think it would be perfect for young friends to say, ‘What is that?

“Earth Warrior.”

“…Yes, I know it’s a Korean-style special film. But is it really okay for everyone to go like this? Do kids with special abilities have no shame?”

“What’s more important than shame is ‘cool’. Isn’t it more important to be cool as a hero? No matter how good a hero is, if his costume goes bad, he won’t be popular.”

It is a theory.

“You can’t be popular as a hero if your appearance is ruined, right?”

“right.”

No matter how powerful a hero is, no matter how few S-class heroes exist in the world, if their appearance is ruined, their popularity will be ruined.

-Will you call me Mosquito Man?

-How can you attach a mosquito to an S-class hero! There’s something suitable like a wolf or a killer whale over there!

-But the person himself is obsessed with mosquitoes…

I’ll say it again, a person with a special ability is a glass-like being.

-What? do you hate mosquitoes? I can tolerate cursing at me, but I can’t stand cursing at mosquitoes! I apologize for that!

-Damn it, I don’t know anything else, but no mosquitoes! Of all the people in the world, no one likes mosquitoes! If you make cockroaches cool as a concept, it’s rather unusual! Because no mosquitoes!

-I can’t forgive you for swearing at mosquitoes! Everyone in this world who hates mosquitoes will return their rotten state of mind until they love mosquitoes!

-That’s because you’re crazy! Whether or not S-class blacks out, I have to say something!

Things like this happen all over the world.

In case the appearance that the hero pursues is not accepted by other people with special abilities, adults, or ordinary people.

-Make it! Awesome Mosquito Man! If you don’t like the design, I’ll leave the country!

-Where are you going?

– Until there is a country that accepts mosquito man!

– Damn it, yes! Let’s try it sometime! Let’s see how the world accepts Mosquito Man!!

I gave an extreme example, but Doge Rider is the same as Mosquito Man.

“Student Yiseon Yun. While I was talking about demons, I did say that even if the person known to the public is a demon or a monster, if his actions are righteous, he is a hero.”

“Yeah.”

“If student Yoon Yi-seon, for example… let’s say that he changes into a nine-tailed fox. But let’s assume that a nine-tailed fox doesn’t steal a person’s liver, but takes out the villain’s mana in a very special way and then stores it somewhere like a bead. .”

“……Would you like to talk about it in detail?”

Yoon Yi-sun’s eyes began to twinkle.

Yoon Yi-sun showed considerable interest, as he was openly spoiling the direction of development of this ability, rather than his future costume.

“For example, this is a nine-tailed fox wearing a hanbok, and carrying around an elemental orb like a prophet’s orb. From there, he spews fox fire, and when he goes into close combat, he wields magical claws. Sometimes it whips its tail like a whip, and fire from each tail shoots out and flies at the enemy.”

“…Wearing Hanbok?”

“Yeah. Later on, I just transformed into a nine-tailed fox. Oh, is this a bit like that?”

The final form of Yoon Yi-sun is to become a tall beauty whose body balance has been adjusted.

“You can go with the concept of absorbing the opponent’s mana. Wearing a hot pink hanbok.”

Rather than telling the hero to become some kind of giant beast, it’s better to leave room here in moderation.

“But you’re not a goblin.”

Such concepts as the Legendary Hero, Super Ranger, Power Sentai, and Masked Rider belong to Gumiho, not Yun Yi-sun!

“Making something similar to the goblin’s appearance could end up defending the goblin if done wrong.”

“I’m in favor of goblins.”

Damn it.

The words are repeated over and over again.

“Okay. Let’s say I became a Pink Rider, similar to a hot pink Dodge Rider. Will the external gaze be fair?”

“Yes. There is something you are overlooking, but the Goblin is so popular in Korea and all over the world that he has a fan club.”

“Even if it’s a villain?”

“That’s the point of view from the state. Although he belongs to the association Im Mae Mang-ryang, the goblin has never committed any crime except for the moment he executes the villain.”

“…….”

That’s right.

As a law-abiding citizen, I did not use this ability recklessly or show myself at any moment other than the moment I executed the villain.

“When the villains go wild, we take care of the enemies directly so that civilians do not suffer damage, and we give people vicarious satisfaction by executing the villains that heroes cannot bear to do.”

ruined.

Persuasion doesn’t work at all.

“I know that the Goblin’s actions are a crime. Even the Goblin fan club members do not deny that his execution of villains is at least ‘not a crime’. However, everyone is enthusiastic that his actions give people vicarious satisfaction and catharsis. “

“I mean, so…”

“Because he kills the villains in a cool way, everyone fell in love with it.

“Is that true?”

“Yes. It was only for a short time, and everyone felt sorry for the suit because it had an ordinary feel. But this time it was different. With a little modification, just a little change in color and design, it became something that could be called a ‘hero’.”

Public opinion on the goblin was good before, but it appeared with a completely new look and cool appearance?

“The goblin was wrong.”

“What is a goblin?”

“You transformed into a strange figure and bewitched people.”

I never thought that the appearance that he had transformed into a curious one would make people goblin craze.

“It’s difficult. Really.”

“Isn’t that right? People go crazy…”

Moment.

I was also hardened, and Yun Yi-sun was also hardened.

“Student Lee Seon. People are enthusiastic, but it seems it’s not just the students.”

“…That’s an insult to goblins.”

The drama suddenly switched to live on the TV in the restaurant.

[This is Saerogu Plaza! A monster that resembles a ‘goblin’ is rampaging! It is presumed that the villain exploded in his desire to imitate the goblin and became like that, and is currently called a ‘doppelganger’ with the code name!]

“Also.”

Yoon Yi-sun smiled and stood up from her seat.

“They say superstars drive both heroes and villains crazy.”

Is that the right thing to use at times like this…?

“Sir. I have somewhere to go.”

“You’re not going there are you?”

“It’s close to here, and after hearing the teacher’s words, I changed my mind a little.”

Pink sparks flickered from the tips of Yoon Yi-sun’s fingers.

“Would you like to see the new transformation of the student council president?”

“…You’re not a Rider, are you?”

“…….”

Yoon Yi-sun just smiled with her eyes bent like a half moon.
