chapter 1
Episode 1
<If you become a villain, what fate would you like to live?>
<Are you going to obey your destiny?>
<Or are you going against it?>
<If not… … .>
It’s noisy.
Unable to bear the nonsense tickling in my head, I opened my eyes and quickly looked around with a broken heart.
Because I saw something I couldn’t believe.
“… … what.”
Uncomfortable feeling of irregular rocking in a hard chair.
Looking at the scenery outside the window, I wonder if this is a train.
Strange.
A little while ago, I would have been on my way to the convenience store.
Have you ever been kidnapped?
A guy like me wouldn’t even get a ransom.
Come to think of it, somehow my vision seems to be slightly different from usual. My body is somehow full of energy.
Do you feel like you have regained your lost youth?
It was a time when I couldn’t calm down at all because of a sense of deja vu that I couldn’t understand.
The train carrying me entered the tunnel.
I glanced thoughtlessly toward the darkened car window, wide-eyed, and stunned.
“Huh?! Is this real?”
I can’t believe my face.
No, I don’t mean it in a strange sense.
Faintly reflected in the car window was the face of a boy he had seen somewhere.
The black hair reflects the lighting in the room and occasionally emits a strange aura of purple.
And pale skin and golden eyes.
“My face is so handsome.”
Do kidnapping dramas support cosmetic surgery for victims these days?
It can’t be!
I know this boy’s face.
But that’s so absurd that I had to wonder if I was crazy or if this damn world had gone crazy.
I’m sure it will too.
“Have you become Xian?”
One of the villains from the last game I cleared.
A walking lump of experience.
For some reason, I felt like I had the face of the villain in the game.
Chapter 1 – What if you become the sprout of a villain?
Let’s recall.
The days when I was living as ‘Anshihan’ rather than ‘Xian’.
It might have been a comment from a viewer when I was running a channel as a gamer who earns a living.
-A game called ‘Love Story’ is hot these days. Do you have any plans to play it?
-That’s a really cool game!
If you say so, you should!
Jump on the trend! That’s the way Hako Yuxber survives!
There was a game that has recently been going viral among gamers.
<Love Story>
Your love will save the world! boy, girl! Build a relationship and save the world!
This game, which had a naming sense and an advertisement that wanted to say, ‘When the hell is this the enemy game!’, did not receive much attention at the time of its release.
Because the ads are gone!
Because it’s so damn good!
However, when a gamer is free, he cannot pass by even the game rolling around the corner.
Among the gamers who played out of curiosity, favorable reviews gradually came out, and it gradually received attention.
The basic concept is love and redemption.
On the stage of youth called the Imperial Academy, the main character gets entangled with various characters, sometimes forming friendships, and furthermore, dating.
Gradually, the secrets of the world are revealed, and sometimes conflicts arise with colleagues who were once shoulder to shoulder.
In the end, a decisive battle to save the world.
In that decisive battle, the main character uses the bonds he has built to save the world.
Although it is standard, it can be said that the basics are the ones that touch the human psychology the most.
-By the way, salting in front of the final boss… … .
-That’s it. ‘I pity you who don’t know the beauty of love!’ that?
– Poor final boss.
-Please curse that evil couple!
… … It seems to have become a topic of conversation in many ways.
‘What do you know about dating! For players who exclaim, ‘Real men don’t date!’, there was also a scenario in which players could clear the game only with the strength and skills of the main character, not by fate.
A so-called extreme difficulty solo ending.
‘I’m in love too! I played while shouting.’
That’s right, everyone likes it when you have to suffer for playing a game.
To add, it was terribly tough.
It’s not called Extreme Difficulty for nothing.
As a game with a theme of love, as the relationship deepens, elements that lower the difficulty such as power-up events and debuff events for major bosses are bound to be included.
Going solo means you’re going to fight alone, regardless of power-up events or anything else.
Is it an insurmountable difficulty without a relationship?
‘Heh, ties are insignificant in front of level and muscles!’
How do you not look like a man?
There were not a few users who intentionally pursue solo play because they liked the sensibility of saving the world with one body.
‘Thanks to you, I suffered… … .’
I had to stay up all night doing the replays over and over again.
Needless to say, the feeling of accomplishment when you defeat the final boss in a situation where it seems like you could be killed with just one touch.
“Woke up aaa!”
A cry of accomplishment rang out.
After barely finishing the broadcast, I wanted to go to a convenience store to cool off the afterglow.
I was so excited that I couldn’t seem to fall asleep.
‘That shouldn’t have happened.’
If you stay up all night, you should just eat and sleep.
please don’t be silly
‘Well, who would have thought.’
I never thought I would get hit by a car on my way to a convenience store that is only a 3-minute walk from my house.
“… … Then when I woke up, it was like this.”
After reminiscing, I paid attention to the world I was seeing with my two eyes.
A sense of speed unique to trains and a shaky ride. And the scenery outside the window goes by quite quickly.
It must have been the first time I saw it, but somehow it was familiar to me.
If I have to say, it should be a memory of seeing the modeled landscape.
“I never thought I would wake up in that game world.”
The world of <Love Story>.
I never thought I would wake up on a train heading to the capital of the empire.
It didn’t take much time to realize the identity of this world.
I felt a sense of deja vu just by looking at the scenery.
more than anything there.
‘Because I’ve seen a lot of faces… … .’
The face of a certain character in that game became my face, so I can’t even deny it.
‘Yes, this is cyanide.’
draft.
‘Why should I just pick and choose?’
Those who have played the game will surely recognize this boy’s face at once.
The problem is this boy’s fate.
‘Huh… … . This guy is a typical contemplation of a villain.’
A game of this genre is bound to exist.
A being who blocks the main character, is jealous, and even cheats on the heroine.
such a person.
It is the main character’s antipode, and in the end, he is destined to die after being stabbed by the main character.
Black Mage Xian.
The sprout of a future villain who will be called by a nickname that makes his face hot.
“You mean that draft?”
I looked at the setting of ‘Cian’ now and the scenario of the future with my left hand open.
‘Proof that I became Xian.’
After a little consciousness, black energy naturally gathers in the palm of the hand and condenses to reveal its presence.
‘It’s not a black flame dragon on my left hand! … … come out! Margie!’
magic.
A name that categorizes special mana with evil properties.
The quality that this boy had no choice but to fall into the abyss of evil.
As a black magician, I was looking at the dark magic that could be called the ideal talent.
“Whoop whoop whoop… … .”
Suddenly, the corners of his lips went up.
I was appreciating this power rising in me with rapture, like watching a burning campfire.
‘But isn’t this pretty cool?’
A villain laughing happily while holding the black energy rising from his right hand.
For some reason, my heart is pounding.
It feels like the childhood sensibilities left behind are reviving.
Ah, innocence is reviving.
I understand?
As a man, there are times when you want to show off your power with your right hand or your left hand!
You can enjoy it proudly here.
No one looks at me pitifully!
Because this is a world where magic and swords exist.
‘It’s a world where it’s possible for a black flame dragon to rise from your right hand!’
You are full of dreams and hopes.
‘… … Isn’t it surprisingly good?’
When I first became Xian, I was embarrassed.
Yes, becoming a villain means dying a violent death in the future.
In particular, Xian’s end could not be said to be very pleasant.
Because Xian, who ran the end of his evil deeds, ended up cursing the world while being sliced without mercy by the main character who gave up on his rehabilitation.
Of course no one wants to die like this. Knowing such a future, it would be normal to despair.
I even got a headache at first.
but.
‘Isn’t it fine if I don’t die?’
Life should be positive.
You just have to affirm the path you pioneered and move forward.
‘And there is no other way.’
Perhaps I will never go back to the life of ‘Anshihan’ again.
There is no specific basis, but strangely, instinct teaches this.
That day I died
then?
‘I have to live as a cyan.’
I was destined to live as a villain.
So what’s the right response to this?
Should I hide in a corner and just shudder, terrified, despairing and longing for survival?
Do you flatter the main character and beg him not to kill him?
Will he be stuck in the jungle over there until the end of the scenario?
‘What does that mean?’
It’s not even alive.
What fun is that?
I came to the world of games after a long time.
‘Then I should enjoy life.’
In fact, I quite like this face and this body where demonic energy rises.
Stimulating emotions strangely makes the heart pound.
Besides that, there are plenty of things in this world that stimulate my sensibilities.
‘I just need to become an immortal villain.’
There is an evil that cannot be hated.
Didn’t everyone have a villain they thought was cool in their childhood?
I want to support more than the main character.
stronger than the protagonist.
‘Please punish that cowardly protagonist!’
Have you ever sympathized with the evil that falls to the main character who brings a new weapon, a companion, and even a lover every time he salts it?
“Isn’t this life worth living?”
Let’s not only worry about how to go against fate, but let’s seize it and rule it in reverse.
Be generous with your subordinates.
stronger than anyone
What if you become a being that no one dares to look down on?
Above all, I am not the main character, so I have the right to dream bigger than anyone else.
World domination, for example?
Isn’t it an enterprising dream more suited to a villain than a protagonist?
“… … Will you enjoy it?”
The will to live with this face is suddenly starting to soar.
Squeezing the demonic energy in my hand as it was, I smiled.
It’s not an innocent laugh.
A little more dignified and noble.
It feels like crossing your legs and looking down on the world.
“Now, you should enjoy coming to the world inside the game, right?”
I know very well about this place.
what will make me die
What can I do to become stronger and richer.
and.
“What should I do to look cool?”
Not having fun is a loss.
I can’t control myself because I’m looking forward to my future to waste the life I’ve earned so long.
‘Villain! Let’s do something!’
What if it’s wrong? Because there is a way then.
As I dream of my own bright future, the scenery of the train gradually changes.
At the end of the plain, the city’s walls are visible.
“Oh oh… … . We are finally here.”
The destination, the capital of the empire.
And the academy there.
The place where the scenario of the game begins and the place where my life, ‘Sian’, will unfold.
“This is the stage of my life!”
Yeah, it’s not the era of the protagonist.
It is the place where the era of Xian will begin.
Let the villains rule this world.
“Then let’s enjoy this damn game.”
Even the damn love ending.
It’s not even a solo ending with extreme difficulty.
Let’s show the best ending just for me.
As soon as I became Xian, I set a goal.
