Villain Ch 970. Players Petition

“Exactly!” the tank agreed, his enthusiasm infectious. “And it’s not just that he’s powerful. He’s got this whole crew with him, and they’re all just as deadly. They’re the ultimate squad, and he’s the one leading them. It’s hard not to admire that kind of leadership, even if he is supposed to be the bad guy.”

“I agree,” the archer chimed in, her tone thoughtful. She adjusted the strap of her quiver, eyes distant as if imagining the power that Allen and his companions wielded. “There’s something really compelling about someone who can command that kind of loyalty and fear. It’s not just about being evil; it’s about being… well, unforgettable.”

“Oh right, I guess you guys heard about that petition?” another player, a mage with a staff almost as tall as she was, interjected suddenly, her eyes lighting up as she joined the conversation.

“Petition?” the rogue asked, tilting his head in curiosity.

“Yeah, I heard about it,” the archer said, her grin widening. “I also signed it!”

“What?!” the tank exclaimed, looking between them with a mixture of surprise and confusion. “Wait, you actually signed it? What even is this petition?”

The rogue frowned. “Hold up, what are you guys talking about? What petition?”

The mage leaned in, her voice dropping to a conspiratorial whisper. “Some of the players, mostly the girls, are trying to get the game devs to make the Devil Emperor a romanceable character.”

Allen almost tripped over his own feet as he heard that. He quickly steadied himself, his heart skipping a beat as he processed the mage’s words. ‘A romanceable character?!’ he thought, incredulous. ‘Is this for real?!’

“Wait, you’re telling me that people want to romance the Devil Emperor?” the rogue asked, his voice dripping with disbelief. “I mean he is literally this game’s final boss !”

The archer grinned, her eyes gleaming with a mix of amusement and something else—admiration, perhaps. “He’s got that dark, mysterious vibe going for him. And, honestly? It’s kind of hot,” she said with a smirk.

The rogue shook his head, still trying to wrap his mind around the concept. “So let me get this straight: you’re telling me there’s a whole group of players out there who are obsessed with a guy who’s supposed to be the most dangerous villain in the game, and they actually want to… date him?”

“Not just date him,” the tank interjected with a chuckle. “They want to ‘romance’ him. Like, full-on relationship stuff. That’s what the petition is for—to convince the developers to add a feature where you can romance the Devil Emperor.”

“And it’s gaining traction,” the mage added, her voice brimming with excitement. “I signed it because, honestly, how cool would it be to have a villain romance arc? It’s so different from the usual hero stuff.”

The archer nodded in agreement. “Exactly. It’s like a challenge—he’s powerful, unattainable, and probably the last person you’d think of in a romantic sense. But that’s what makes it so intriguing. Who wouldn’t want to try to break through that cold, villainous exterior?”

The healer looked at the group incredulously. “You guys are insane. I mean, I get the whole villain appeal, but this is next level. You’re talking about the Devil Emperor here. He’s not exactly boyfriend material,” she reminded them.

“But you also signed it, right?” the mage said with a teasing smirk, glancing at her.

“Of course,” the healer said. She pressed her lips and smiled dryly. “I love red flags guys. And he’s all red.”

“No, you are colorblind,” the mage teased her.

The healer nudged her and pouted. “Shut up,” she said in embarrassment.

“Well—” The archer just shrugged, her grin widening. “That’s what makes it fun. He’s a challenge. And besides, in a world like this, who wants to go for the typical good guy? It’s the bad boys who are more interesting, who’ve got layers. There’s something about that danger and power that’s just… irresistible.”

Allen’s jaw almost dropped. ‘THIS IS SO MESSED UP!’ he screamed internally, trying to maintain his composure as he listened to the conversation. It was one thing to hear that players admired him for his power and feared him as the ultimate villain, but to hear that they actually wanted to ‘romance’ him? That was a whole new level of bizarre.

He had built his reputation in the game as the most formidable, terrifying force, the Devil Emperor who ruled with an iron fist—and now people wanted to turn him into some kind of romantic interest?

The mage nodded, her eyes gleaming with excitement. “Exactly! It’s like those stories where the heroine falls for the villain. There’s always that question of whether he’ll stay evil or change because of her. It’s dramatic, it’s intense, and it’s way more interesting than just another hero saving the day.”

Allen, still reeling from what he’d overheard, decided he needed to dig deeper. He couldn’t let this bizarre turn of events slip by without getting some answers. With a steadying breath, he approached the group. He kept his voice casual, blending seamlessly into the ongoing conversation as he spoke.

“Hey, I overheard you guys talking about that petition,” Allen said, his tone curious and slightly conspiratorial. “I’ve been pretty active on the forums, but I haven’t seen anything about it. Where’s this petition you’re all talking about?”

The group turned to look at him, a mix of surprise and intrigue in their expressions. The archer was the first to respond, her eyes narrowing slightly as she sized him up. “You won’t find it on the official forums,” she said, leaning in a bit closer as if to keep the conversation private. “It’s in one of the fanbase Discourd servers.

It’s unofficial because, well, not everyone would be on board with the idea. Some players might totally hate it, so we’re keeping it low-key to avoid any unnecessary arguments.”

Allen nodded, trying to appear as though he was just another curious player. “Makes sense.”
