Life Of A Nobody - as a Villain



While the Royal Palace was celebrating the birthday of the princess and now the awakening of their princess, far away from them a black car glided through the silent streets of the city. Its sleek form cutting through the darkness like a shadow in the night. 

The city, usually bustling with life, was now quiet and empty. Some dazzling decorations and colorful fireworks would paint the sky with bright bursts of light from time to time. 

The car's windows were tinted, concealing the identity of those within. Yet the faint sound of the loud music outside could still be heard inside. 

Myra, who was silently looking outside, glancing at the scenery that passed them by, was startled as she felt the device in her hands light up. 

Looking at the message she received, she glanced at the boy sleeping by her side, as she thought if she should wake him up or not. But knowing the importance of the message, she still did. 

"There's news from the palace."

Getting no reply in response, she continued "Princess Rebecca had her awakening just now."

"How did it go?" He said, without opening his eyes. 

"She awakened the element of water successfully. She even got her first blessing."

Her words caused Esme to look back with a surprised expression, while Myra nodded her head, confirming that all she said was the truth. 

"Are we going back to the palace?" Esme asked. 

"No, continue driving." Rio said, with his eyes still closed. 

Unlike the 2 of them he wasn't surprised. He had already anticipated it. There was no need for him to go back and waste time on babysitting her, while she slept. 

"But, it's _"

"We'll meet her tomorrow. Now just keep driving." Esme was saying something, when he cut her off. 

Following his wishes Esme started the car again, and kept moving towards their mansion. They would've reached the Blake mansion by now, but the main roads were all crowded by people who were still celebrating the birthday. 

After all, most of the things today were free for everyone in the Haven, so people were happy to enjoy them. 

That's why she had to take the longer route and go even slower, cause her master sitting behind was trying to sleep. 

_

Rio, in his thoughts glanced at the new notification he just received

[Goddess of night wishes you to go back.]

[She feels curious about your partner's progress]

'She's not my partner.'

'And you already know which goddess she followed.'

'Is she fine now?' He asked her, just to be sure. 

[She is.]

After reading that, Rio closed the panel with his thoughts. 

With Nyx's reaction, he was certain that things went just like what was written, and some new gods or different variables didn't pop up to change things. 

_

As the silence lingered in his mind again, his thoughts drafted back to what was supposed to happen next in the novel. 

After their failed awakenings both Rebecca and Leon were seriously injured, and wouldn't wake up for 2-3 days. 

Leon was taken back to his family, and no one found out someone intentionally halted his awakening. 

Rebecca lay in her room, where different healers and priests came to check her condition, almost every few hours. But nothing seemed to work. 

Giving up on normal methods, when there was still no change in her situation after 3 days, king Maximus decided to take her to one of the best Medical Association of Arcadia, widely known as 'The Circle of Renewals'. 

The CIRCLE OF RENEWALS, an organization entirely devoted to the line of healing and restoration. Healers and priests from all around the world want to join and learn the art of healing here.

But they couldn't since the association followed very strict rules and requirements for outsiders entry.

They hold a respectable position in the world of humans. Yet they remain neutral from all factions. Not interfering in any way. 

The healers from there managed to fully cure Rebecca's broken veins, and made her as good as new. 

While leaving from the association, Rebecca's eyes fall on the comatose Leon who along with his father were currently waiting outside the gates. 

Then the same dog blood routine of cliche followed, as after learning the truth and seeing the sad look on protagonist's dad, who could do nothing but watch both his wife and son unconscious, she agreed to help. 

Rebecca ran back to her daddy and asked another favor. Reluctantly the King agreed, and left the place before her dumb daughter decided to ask him to have everyone waiting in line outside cured. 

What happened next was even more cliched shit, as Leon who was more badly wounded then Rebecca, was fully healed in only a few days. 

In those few days, somehow the protagonist halo did it's magic, and he managed to act pitiful and got in the good graces of an elder there. 

As one can guess, that old elder also had a little grand daughter same as Leon's age, who somehow became friends with him. 

After a few days, Leon had to leave, but he promised in his usual protagonist tone, that he'll always remember their help, and come meet his new friend if he ever could. 

Obviously the girl he met at that time was another heroine. Whom he will meet again at the academy and then everyone knows what's next.

Yupp, she joins the harem too. I think you should take a look at

-

It was then that Leon also learned, it was the princess who saved him, otherwise his father and he wouldn't even be allowed entry inside the organization for quite a while. And would have to wait in line for weeks probably. 

Going back home, he also saw the princess's poster the next day, which talked about the engagement between Blake family and royal family.

With that he learned that the one who saved him from the bullies, helped him get treated, and the one who helped his mother, are all same girl, and she's the princess. 

He also learned that keeping his promise king Maximus really sent healers to help his mother. 

After learning everything, Leon again swore in his protagonist voice, that he'll pay back all his favors, and protect her at all cost if he ever got the chance. 

_

A smile came to Rio's face, when he remembered how the same protagonist who swore to protect her, ended up being the one who killed her. 

The irony of that scene was hilarious, as he remembered the cringe lines protagonist swore in the novel at the beginning, and the righteous words he said before he ended up killing her. 

–Hun hahaa–

A small chuckle escaped his lips as he remembered both scenes simultaneously. It really was funny. 

Seeing him smile out of nowhere, made Esme and Myra confused. But before they could ask him, he composed himself back and started acting like he was sleeping again. 

-

Rio wondered what kind of effects the changes he brought would bring. 

Since the princess is all okay now, who would be the one, who'll save the protagonist. 

Will some new character or backing pop up to save him, or will he keep waiting in line for days until those geezers in charge of the circle took notice of him. 

He could also go ahead and have Artemis recommend Leon to be treated. With her status, it wouldn't be hard. That way he could have the protagonist feel even more indebted to him. 

But then he shook his head again. There was no need for him to do anything. 

He already planned to save his mother, that should be goodwill enough. 

And besides, learning how the fate of the protagonist worked, would only help him better.

Because from all the novels he read on earth, he was sure, that even if he became friends with protagonist, always helped him and saved him - these righteous hypocrites would always leave him to die and run away with all the heroines, if ever shit hit the fan and bad situations arose. 

Hell, he even remembered some novels where the protagonist lets his subordinates die, and then goes to 'comfort' their sisters and wives. 

A shudder ran through Rio's back at the thought of that. 

'Yeah, not happening.' 

'If I let Ria get close to him, who knows what horrific death would she get.'

Protagonist's halo always ends up bringing doom to those close to him, just so he can come to their rescue and shine. 

Or if they died, then he'll kill all their rich enemies in the name of revenge, and loot everything they had. After that he'll enjoy his life, while those who died will never be mentioned again. 

-

Deciding to just let the protagonist be, for a while, Rio turned his attention back to other things he planned for today. 

The heroine he was planning to meet was, the very heroine whom Leon uses the Pura Corpus potion to fool. 

The future no.1 alchemist of Arcadia, the brightest bookworm of the academy arcs, and another member of Leon's harem - Ayla Mizerpitt. 

Just about now, she's going through the worst phase of her life. And this time, HE was going to be the one giving her a helping hand. 

Her single support, her ray of hope in this damned world of darkness- would she still fall for the protagonist after he changed her everything, her whole routine. 

With her talent in alchemy, and his knowledge of all the recipes written in the novel - the duo of them had zero chance of failure and the profits would be legendary. 

He could make half the potions himself, but the more important ones would obviously be more complicated for him to make easily. 

To create them, he might just need years of practice in Alchemy, and even then, he might have some chances of failure. 

But she, the daughter of destiny, the chosen heroine, well, there was no way she could fail right. 

Maybe she would, but at least he has an idea about her talent and ways to help her improve it. While he himself is new to all this.

She can make him potions, & he could leave selling them to his family. That way, he would have more time to deal with other people, instead of wasting it in some lab. 

'She will be my first recruit in my fight against my fate.'

Rio thought, and watched as the car stopped moving. 

He opened his eyes and a smile came to his face as he looked at a little girl, sitting down and crying in the middle of the road.
