《Life of a Villain》Chapter 11: Demon Lord?
Advertisement
[A few moments before Andy fell off the cliff]
A man in a black robe with a white mask on his face was trailing the silver-haired boy.
He continued to follow the boy as he went deeper into the mountains.
The youth's perseverance even impressed him. Even though he was mortal and had a weak body, the boy's face was filled with determination as his eyes searched for something.
He was assigned to protect the boy by the manager of the Phoenix Pavilion. He has been strongly advised not to make his presence known to the boy.
"Who said he was a wastrel?" he mused, his gaze fixed on the boy.
It startled the man when he noticed the boy running towards the white rock. When he saw the boy approaching the cliff, his heart skipped a beat.
"What is he up to? Is he planning to commit suicide?" He mumbled when he noticed the boy staring down the chasm. He approached him slowly because he wanted to deter him from committing suicide.
Lin Juan, his boss, would kill him. If something were to happen to that boy,
"Young Master!"
He called out to the boy as he approached him slowly. He was very cautious because he didn't want to startle the boy.
However, his world was turned upside down when that boy fell off the cliff while he was turning around.
"Oh, no!" he exclaimed as he ran towards the cliff, his heart started pounding faster.
As he stood on the cliff, he noticed the boy falling into the darkness. And after a while, he was completely disappeared from his sight.
"What am I going to do now?" He muttered to himself, his gaze fixed on the darkness.
------------------------------------------------------
Andy's mouth was agape as his body fell down the cliff, and he stared in disbelief at the disappearing cliff.

For a brief instant, his gaze was drawn to the figure of a masked man before darkness engulfed him.
As his ears picked up the fast-approaching sound of lightning, his heart continued to pound quickly.
His heart swelled with helplessness as his body continued to fall into nothingness.
"Is this it?" he muttered as he closed his eyes. Memories of his life kept flashing through his mind as his heart relaxed.
While he closed his eyes and became lost in memories when a tear in space appeared down in the chasm and grew until it became the size of a car.
However, as soon as the body of the boy fell into that tear, it disappeared.
.........................
He had a peaceful expression on his face as he accepted reality. The sound of lightning was soothing to him.
Suddenly, everything went silent, and he found himself to be lying on the ground.
He was completely taken aback. When he opened his eyes, he was shrouded in darkness.
Is this the end? I'm dead? "Is this heaven or hell?" he wondered as he looked around. He was absolutely amazed that he had died feeling no pain.
But, all of a sudden, he actually realized he was still inside Lu An's body. Just then, his attention was drawn to a white light originating from a distance.
As he moved closer to the light, it became increasingly bright. As his heart pounded, he had a moment of realization.
Continuing to walk, he noticed an altar-like structure with a white light emanating from it.
When he got close to the altar, his footsteps came to a halt when he noticed someone standing on it. He spotted a man dressed in a red robe and white hair. But he couldn't see his face; all Andy could see was the man's back. He could tell that the man was deep in thought and staring off into the distance.

"Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha"
Suddenly, the man burst into laughter, turning around and he stared down at Andy as laugh came to a halt.
Andy was startled when he saw the man. When he read the book, it stated that the Supreme Saint was an old man with a wrinkled face. Who appeared to be on the edge of extinction.
But the man in front of him didn't resemble him at all. It was a young man in his twenties, with milk-white skin and white hair falling down his shoulders. But it was his bright red eyes that stood out the most. He was so good-looking that any girl would fall in love with him.
"Who are you?" Andy asked, while his heart pounding faster. Despite his fear, he summoned the courage to voice his doubt.
The man squinted his eyes as he looked at Andy, and then he began laughing again.
"So there you have it. That is why she took so long to send someone here. So you're not from this world, are you?"
When Andy heard those words, he became rooted on the spot. Sweat poured out of him in beads as nobody knew he'd been transmigrated.
"Who are you?" Andy stumbled as he took a step backward. As he looked into the man's eyes, he felt a surge of fear in his chest.
"Me?" The man raised his finger at himself. All the while, he had a playful expression on his face.
As he spoke, he sighed and sighed again. "I've been here so long that I've forgotten what my name is. However" He came to a halt in the middle of his sentence to look at Andy.
"How...However what?" Andy asked again.
A smile bloomed on his face as he said, "However, I remember, people used to call me Demon Lord"

A Mildly Odd Reality Breaker
Omar receives an unexpected visitor who comes baring a gift—a "registration ticket"—in the form of a small metal card. The ticket is itself an offer to participate in the game, "Reality Break." Accepting this offer means that Omar will be able to perceive the true nature of reality where there is not one, but two dimensions of time, and in this second dimension history changes (and somewhat "frequently"). Along with this, he will also gain access to the "chronopause"; another reality that is not so much parallel to our own as it is perpendicular, which acts as both a place and the natural boundary between non-sequential points on the timeline. Using the chronopause, Omar will become a chrononaut with the ability to travel through time, and as a player, he will be given a cybernetic interface and his own portable extradimensional storage space. It's a strange conversation, but due to Omar's dismally short attention span, he only consciously hears that last bit about the portable pocket space, and that's only after the physics-defying void is opened in his living room and literally waved in front of his face. Reality is certainly stranger than most people realize, but then again, so is Omar. Thankfully, he responds well to shiny things, and for better or for worse, his chronic inattentiveness is the least of his psychological issues. Omar also has a mild form of "Oppositional Defiant Disorder" which presents itself as an occasional, arbitrary need to disobey others (especially authority figures). However, his oddest psychological issue by far is his "abnormally hyperactive" subconscious mind. Outwardly and consciously, Omar is a lazy, apathetic man-child prone to mildly asinine behavior. Subconsciously, he's some sort of genius capable of extraordinary feats of cognition. Most of the time, Omar is a (technically) functioning adult, but in order to live as such, he must rely entirely upon unusual abilities he's completely unaware of, despite the fact that he uses them regularly. Up until now, his life had merely been ridiculous, but now it was also a game. Note: The narrative style is that of a reliable narrator with a "3rd-person sarcastic" POV. This story takes place in the Reality Breakers/Chronopause universe.

She Who Reigns the Stars [Vol. 1]
*Remastered version of She Who Reigns the Stars* Tell me, what will become of us? Presenting your Goddess… Asteria, Supreme Deity of Stalera, the nation of the Universe. She who rules the stars with steel eyes and an iron will, the glorious, the beautiful, the adored Goddess, has now fallen under the hands of her nemesis… The Archfiend, Emperor of Talonis, the nation of Vice and its Shadows, has now assumed reign over Stalera after the death of the Goddess. With the power of Vice, its Shadows, and the Universe, it is assumed that he would be satisfied now that Stalera was under his mercy, and the other two nations of Yelerna and Antalis would follow suit. But much to our surprise, he isn’t because he still lacks the… Ruby, The Goddess’ last attempt to save her empire and the entirety of the Universe. Before her death, the Goddess sealed a portion of her blood, which contained the remaining powers of the Universe the Archfiend hadn’t obtained, away from his grasp. She entrusted it to one of her Zodiac Warriors, a member of her elite service known as the Zodiac Warrior Circle, and instructed him to hide the precious jewel on Earth. The restoration of Stalera and the defeat of the Archfiend would lie in the hands of whoever inherited the ruby jewel. Those who inherited the ruby were known as the Goddess’ Successor, and the one next in line to inherit it is… Auriella Corentin. Life was never the same for Auriella the night her Grandmama gave her the ruby jewel and died, thrusting the poor girl into a world of magic. Now in possession of the Goddess’ blood, it wouldn’t be long until the Archfiend found her, killed her, and obtained her ruby inheritance. But Auriella never wanted this responsibility, not when she had her own past and inner demons to battle against. Nevertheless, she finds herself seeking an alliance with the Zodiac Warriors and a strange barista as she learns to wield the powers the Goddess bestowed to her. But as frequent demon attacks, a secret admirer (or stalker), strange notes, and a handsome, amber-eyed boy pile onto her plate, it is no longer clear whether the universe needed Auriella to be their savior or to be the Goddess’ (inferior) replacement. A Goddess in need of redemption. Four Nations at the brink of destruction. Our question still remains unanswered… What will become of us? [Updates Monday, Wednesday, Friday @8pm PST]
