Hero Killer

Ongoing | Kkulbeol , Beolkkul | 2000 released

The story centers around Ihwa, who is seeking revenge against the 'heroes' for the injustice she experienced by the organisation of heroes...her sister was killed by them for a mysterious reason(it seems to be a big plotline), and the stranger thing is her sister (elder) was a hero or worked with them..it is a world where the heroes are corrupted and misuse their power and authority and the hero killer aka our protagonist is the one who is keeping them in place (in her own words). If there ever was a situation where a hero had to choose between one civilian against a much larger group, then the latter had to be chosen but as time went out, the heroes gained more power and just unnecessarily kill the hostages or the civilians while being on a mission meanwhile destroying properties (buildings and the likes)without facing repercussions. Ihwa is being trained by a mysterious old man in a wheelchair who later turns out to be one of 'The Elders'..the top people of the hero organisation who have existed since long ago..also quick note people who have abilities are called 'gifted' with their abilities being referred to as 'gifts' and they can live for a very long time but most of them die out before being able to die from natural causes.. Gifts vary from fire abilities, shapeshifting abilities to power stealing (?) abilities which our mc has(yes very op).. apparently ESP is used for the gifts..gifts can use high ESP or minimal ESP..When your ESP runs out..u r fucked as you know your gift is at the limit and u r in danger especially during a fight..the guy in the cover is Engen(?)aka smiling man..a villain with three other members forming the 'Nameless' organisation..later joined by mc..The girl is really similar in character design and personality wise to that crazy girl from bnha but slightly kinder and wholesome..there is a crazy doctor yet seems to be the most sane out of the bunch, he uses some kind of space magic..it might seem op but he seems weak atleast right now..the other guy rarely talks but is my fav out of them other than mc..Engen seems very transparent to me which is a first for me as his type is the one I think I know the least about cuz they are just that good at hiding things n a good author as well..the gap in level between Engen and Ihwa is a lot..the power scale in this manhwa seems pretty established already..with the 'silver witch' at the very top (she has silver hair too so she has to have some kind of connection with mc) then the light girl who gave Engen that scar in the war between villains and heroes...the heroes won and her line to Engen was if I recall correctly 'you are so sad or you have no expression so let me put a smile to your face' hence the scar on his face..but what's even stranger is I thought she would be the endgame for Engen or that he would hold some kind of grudge towards her but she seems to be an afterthought with the 'silver witch' being their common nemesis..she even called her a bitch and said she died to Engen's remark that she is still alive, just hiding and as long as she exists she would never be the strongest... THAT'S ALL FROM ME..WHEW SAYONARA!!
