《A Terrible Villain And Their Destiny》Interlude: Goddess Afa's Second Report
Advertisement
The Goddess of Heroes Afa sat on her massive white throne, her perfectly manicured eyebrows furrowed in confusion as she stared at her viewing screen. She didn’t quite understand what she had just seen.
That Gilles Coldwater was still alive. How? She wondered. Those assassin were meant to kill the boy. Sable was supposed to witness this and survive by hiding herself somewhere within the warehouse. But that didn’t happen.
Instead some random no named knight came in and protected the two. Where in the world did he come from? Afa had no idea who this person was. She had no plans for this random. What’s more was how was he able to fight against four of those assassin? Though not that well.
That worthless knight almost ruined her entire plan, being so overzealous nearly getting Sable killed. All her planning was almost wasted because of that idiot. Afa was almost thankful when Bryson Coldwater entered unannounced into the warehouse and saved Sable.
Though, even more questions were raised on how or why Bryson Coldwater and some random girl managed to find the warehouse. But Bryson was able to show her some of his abilities. Bryson showed that he had some power behind him, which meant that Afa’s investment on that front was at least paying out.
But again, why was he even there in the first place? Who in the world was that girl? Apparently she now had a job as Bryson’s servant or something, Afa cared very little about that. Maybe she could be useful for the future, Afa put that thought away for now.
Gilles was alive and that was annoying, but whatever, he wasn’t that important anyways. Bryson being there was weird, but again whatever, she had plenty of other events prepared over the upcoming years. She couldn’t wait to watch them all unfold.

As she was thinking the pixie flew into the throne room, “My Goddess, I have received news that the Coldwater family seemed to have recently been attacked.” She reported.
“Hmm? Oh, yes I know. I helped set it up.” Afa said bored.
“I beg pardon, Goddess?” The pixie asked taken a back.
“Yes. The plan was for them to kill Gilles and scar Sable.” Afa explained.
“Oh…” The pixie emoted, unsure what to say in reply. Thankfully for her, Afa kept talking.
“But for some reason this random knight got involved.” Afa trailed on, pointing at the display screen that now displayed a picture of the young knight Nico Reese, “Then Bryson and this random girl appeared as well.” She said and the screen then showed Bryson and Lila entering the warehouse.
“It’s annoying but nothing serious.” Afa said with a shrug.
The pixie initially wanted to tell Afa that the random girl she was referring to was actually the former maid that had been recently fired. Then, she decided that it would be better for everyone to not do that.
“So, excuse my ignorance my Goddess, but why have Gilles killed?” She asked.
“So that Sable could grow and it would allow that Lottie girl to grow as well.” Afa stated.
“I see… what are your plans for them in the future?” The pixie asked.
“So they can help my heroes of course.” Afa said condescendingly, “I need a good party to help my heroes and a good reason for them to hate Bryson and the greater evil. Now are you done? I’m busy.”
“Uh, no, no. Sorry, I’ll leave you now.” The pixie replied, giving a polite bow and flew out of the throne room. As she flew away one thought went through her head. Maybe Zarall was right about her.

8 241World of Alvarra: Rise of the Vampire Lord
Van was born a dhampir with memories of past lives that plague him. If he does not overcome them, he may face a slow descent into insanity. Growing up in a world where the memories of his past lives, clash with the truth of this strange new world. A world where women outnumber men to a large margin and are in control. Filled with magic, ki, aura, and creatures from other dimensions trying to break into his world to devour it. Will Van survive and thrive and make sense of it all? This is a story where I’m hoping to take some things and put them on its head. Everyone has heard of isekai about now, but has anyone ever really contemplated what it would be like to have voices, visions, or archaic ideas and views swim around a person's mind? We also hear about how the mc’s always gets the harem. But what if that's because there are more women than men and women are somewhat biologically different then the women we know from our world. Imagine a society where anyone can become strong and since there are more women than men, there are more stronger women than stronger men and now apply medieval history and a view that men are lower than women because the goddess made women in her image. And what if, the mc isn’t the only one with memories of past lives, and he meets some people who have been driven insane because of it? This is my first time writing a book and showing it to potential thousands of people. I won’t promise that my work will be good right off the bat. But I'm hoping that, with enough constructive criticism, I can provide an interesting read for all comers and improve to match and exceed the expectations put on me. The image used above does not belong to me. Warning! There is blood, gore, sex, and rape!(not anymore...) I may not be a good writer yet, but I will try to give a more realistic and authentic view of this world. This world and what you know of it will be of the view of the mc. So if something does not make sense to you, it probably does not to the mc ethier. Finally. For the sex or smut, scenes. I will hide them under spoiler. But you should not have to worry about it until somewhere around chapter nineteen or twenty, so if you don’t want to continue reading a book with sex, stop there. I will also be putting an NSFW sign in the chapter heading to warn people ahead of time. (all sex scenes will now be moved to my Patreon and scribblehub.) Thank you for reading and please help me become the writer I am hoping to be as well as the writer you all deserve to read from.
