Supervillain Idol System: My Sidekick Is A Yandere

"Hmm, what an interesting plan you have," Irene's muttered with intrigue, yet her face remained hard, hostility etched deeply into her gaze as she stared at Harold.

Harold kept his eyes closed, giving a short nod, his voice wavering just slightly as he replied, "The plan is pretty much foolproof. I'm even offering to pay in advance in case anything goes wrong." He cleared his throat, pushing the words out a bit too quickly. "What do you say? The money could be of great use to your cause and its children—"

A deep frown cut across Irene's face as her gaze sharpened. "They are not 'its!!'" she hissed. The snakes atop her head then snapped forward, their fangs out and glistening under the dim theater lights as they hissed menacingly mere inches away from Harold's face.

*Drip, drip,* flecks of what Harold could only assume was venom landed on his skin, a prickling sting rising wherever the droplets touched him. Instinctively, he took a quick step back, hands raised slightly in a gesture of surrender as he muttered, "Sorry, I didn't mean—"

"Spare me your empty corporate apology," Irene's voice was cold, cutting him off as she looked away, her gaze settling on the now vacant stage.

Her rigid expression softened, revealing a hollow look as she stared silently at the stage, her sharp features momentarily replaced by an unexpected, lonely expression. But just as quickly, the hardness returned to her eyes, and she turned her head, glancing at Harold out of the corner of her eye.

"I want double the amount," she demanded, her tone leaving no room for negotiation. "All clean. Otherwise, take your offer elsewhere."

A slight frown creased Harold's brow, but he nodded nonetheless. "Fine," he replied. "I'll even add a quarter more to apologize."

She scoffed, dismissing his offer as she turned her back on him and walked back to her seat. "Keep your apology; it sickens me enough that I am accepting your blood money," she muttered. "It's funny, you know?" Her steps slowed, her heels clicking softly as she moved. "How much of a giver you turn into when you need something, Harold."

As her footsteps faded, Harold's shoulders relaxed, and he opened his eyes, letting out a quiet sigh.

He tugged at his collar, straightening it, then cleared his throat, doing his best to sound composed as he called after her. "I'll take it we have a deal then. I'll have someone deliver the money to you along with everything you'll need to know about your target… and mine."

Meanwhile, back at the Bright residence, Don was laying on his bed, exhausted from the mental training session he chose to finish. He shifted slightly, his gaze drifting to the ceiling as he prepared to close his eyes and call it a night.

Suddenly, a faint sound rang out—
