Title: “I Became The Villain The Hero Is Obsessed With”
“Look! Can you see the railway track in the distance?”
I used my telekinesis to fix the camera’s view on the train tracks.
The tracks ran straight, but there was a fork halfway where it branched off in a different direction.
And at the end of the tracks the camera showed, people were tied up.
“Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Can you see it, everyone?”
The chat window buzzed instantly.
Yes, that’s right. This is what I wanted! Be more afraid!
“I tied them up. People on the tracks, that is. If the train keeps going straight here, it will run over these five innocent people. But see that lever over there? If you pull it, the tracks will switch, and only the one person tied up on the forked path will be hit.”
[Hey, where have I seen this before?]
[Isn’t this that trolley problem?]
[The trolley dilemma in real life, wow…]
Realizing what the chat window was referencing, I had an ‘aha’ moment.
Oh, so the trolley dilemma is known in this world too, unlike DarknaXt?
It seems no villain has pulled this trick yet. I breathed a sigh of relief.
“Will you turn the lever? Or will you not? Just so you know, stopping the train is not an option.”
I switched the view of the camera.
There, the engine room of the train rapidly approaching was visible. The original engineer lay unconscious, and a masked woman was driving the train. Yes, that’s Subin. Thank you, Subin!
“Keep in mind that if you fool around, I can flip the train over. You only have the option to turn the lever. So here’s the deal. Stardust, please come. I will observe your moral judgement.”
Now, the stage is set.
It’s just you, Shin Haru. Just come.
[Stardust again, wow… At this point, it’s true love?]
I completely ignored the chat window.
