I Am The Game's Villain



"Triple Mirrors." I said and three mirrors appeared in front of Milleia. The wolf was first surprised but nonetheless continued its attack, breaking the glass easily. Easily indeed since I didn't want them to be sturdy. The countless broken shards of the mirrors didn't fall on the ground but instead floated around the wolf before attacking it from every side.

The wolf let out a painful groan as the shards lacerated his skin and eventually slumped lifelessly on the ground.

" … " Milleia was looking speechless at the dead wolf for a minute before recovering. " T-This mirror! " She looked frantically around looking obviously for me.

Whatever, my face is altered.

Thinking that, I came out of my hide, and Milleia eventually saw me.

"Y-You are!"

I ignored her for the moment and put all the wolves' corpses in my space ring, including the ones killed by Milleia. 

Nice, I am a little wealthy now.

[<You robbed her.>]

'I took her prey as compensation for saving her. It's a win-win situation.'

[<She didn't even notice it…>]

'That's good as well.'

[He has the Evil Edward's genes, it's nothing for him.]

Whose genes do I have?!

"U-Um…" Milleia stuttered, still surprised. "Thanks…for saving me." As she said that, she scanned my face trying to confirm something.

"It's nothing. I was just passing by." I lied as I couldn't say that I was stalking her before intervening when she was really in a pinch.

"D-Do you remember m-me? You saved me twice, first five months ago and yesterday as well…" Milleia eventually asked a question I didn't want to answer.

Should I lie to her?

What was the benefit I would get by telling her the truth?

She will just uselessly get curious and try and befriend me which was just a waste of time.

"Maybe. I don't remember." I just shrugged my shoulders.

"Y-You don't remember?" Milleia was dumbfounded at my reply. " It was yesterday…I'm sure that you were the one saving me…and I think you are also one of my classmates…and you are in the BikeRace club. "

She really guessed all of that?

"Maybe." I answered ambiguously as if it was the better way. I was just here to help her get the Golden Grass instead of Jayden who was busy.

"This…" Milleia pouted, upset by my answer.

" …" Without waiting, I started to walk away.

"W-Wait! Sir, please!" Milleia stepped in front of me, blocking my way.

I knew she would stop me and that's what I wanted.

"What?" I asked while showing her my confusion.

"I'm sorry…it's just…may I know where you…are going? " Milleia asked in a guilty tone. It wasn't like her to speak and stop people like that but she knew that her situation was urgent. Any help would be welcomed.

"The Golden Grass, " The moment I said that, Millie's pink eyes shone in shock and happiness.

"I-I'm also looking for the Golden Grass! " She shouted and approached me excitedly.  " I-I have a proposal, please hear it… " Milleia fumbled in her words.

"Proposal?"

"Yes!" Milleia nodded. " Since we are both looking for the Golden Grass, wouldn't it be better to work together, Sir? "

" … "

Milleia's eyes started to turn teary at my lack of answer. It was so touching that I wanted to say 'yes', right away but I needed to act like any random guy out there.

"H-How about that! I will give you all objects and Mana Beast I have beaten!" Milleia insisted and even added her today's chase.

"Seems good for me." I immediately accepted, trying to hide my grin beneath my mask.

I will get a lot of money today, I feel it.

" T-Thank you very much! " Milleia grasped my hands gratefully.

She knew I was strong so she must be happy and relieved to have me at her side now.

"Oh, yes! I am Milleia Sophren. Pleased to meet you." Milleia introduced herself and waited for me.

"Nyrel. " I kept the name I always use with that mask, hair and eyes.

"Nyrel…? Such a unique name… " She wasn't the first one saying this to me. It was the name given by my parents from Earth. 

" B-By the way, Sir Nyrel… "

She was sure chatty.

"What?"

"Um… " Milleia seemed hesitant to speak but it didn't last long. " The last time, I saw you, you were wearing another mask, covering your eyes until your nose… "

" … " I groaned inwardly, remembering that cringe mask. I really wanted to forget all memories about that day, I had to wear that mask to save the children during the entrance ceremony day but looks like it will follow me forever!

All of that, because of Jarvis and that tasteless guy from Tokyo!

"I don't remember wearing that mask. I always wear this one. "

[<You should face her truthfully.>]

Face what?

Humiliation?!

"N-No, I'm sure you had that golden and black mask! The one someone who wears during parties… " Milleia seemed to remember that mask really well, unfortunately.

Kuh…Kill me!

"Why would I wear such a strange mask? " I retorted to her.

"I…really liked this mask…though… "

Huh?

Is that a joke?

"You liked that mask…?" I couldn't help but ask her with a raised brow.

"Yes!" Milleia nodded. "It suited you well, Sir Nyrel…you know…like a H-H-Herooooo…" her face blushed in embarrassment when she finished.

I also wanted to blush in embarrassment but my memories of that mask kept me cool.

"I see…" I should get rid of that mask fast before she asks me to wear it again.

….

….

….

After confirming my partnership with Milleia, we both explored the forest together. If there were beasts, we would obviously fight together.

"Wow! Sir Nyrel, you are really strong!" Milleia said, genuinely impressed when I killed three beasts with my two short swords. "As expected of someone from the Royal Eden Academy…"

"I'm not in the Royal Eden Academ-"

"I wish I was also strong…like you Sir Nyrel…" Before I could deny something Milleia had confirmed,  she muttered that in a sad tone.

I knew why she was sad.

It was something that was slightly said in the game but now it was real life and I noticed that as Milleia's classmate. It was her complex of inferiority. 

When she was chosen by the Royal Eden Academy, Milleia was proud of herself. She trained from childhood to become strong like her father after all. But when school started, she understood that she wasn't one of the strongest. The first day, she understood that when Ronald Trueheart punched Jayden who was the strongest commoner. Then one by one, she met the nobles and the High-ranking nobles. They were true monsters. Lyra was already a monster from Milleia's point of view but the Prince, the Princess, the Tarmias Twins were on another level.

What discouraged even more Milleia was Jayden's and Tyler's amazing progression over the course of months. They became strong enough to contend with high ranking nobles, even more Jayden. Plenty of times, I saw her gloomy expression when she looked at us. Us, I mean, Jayden, me and Lyra. The last straw was probably what I showed against Ronald. I didn't tell them about the Anathemas Fire so they were all shocked. I had two legacies, Jayden had Zeus' Legacy, and Lyra was born strong and talented. Her sense of inferiority was understandable.

It wasn't good to let her like that, cursing her own helplessness.

"You are strong." Without choice, I choose to cheer her up.

"Eh?" Milleia turned toward me.

"You are strong. Stronger than what you think." I just said that and walked ahead.

It wasn't even to comfort her as it was the truth.

Milleia when she awakens Raphiel's bloodline, she will become a freak. She doesn't understand how powerful she is. Her pink eyes were proof of Eden's blessing. If I remember they recognized Milleia's talent thanks to her eyes. Even in the game, she was extremely important. She had as much importance as the Saintess, the Prophetess, the High Priestess and the Apostles of Eden.

In the First Game, she was the one helping the most Jayden to kill the [Main Antagonist]. Without her, it was possible but you had to have nearly all the other Heroines at your side.

In the Second Game, with Jayden, the [Protagonist of the Second Game] and the Prophetess, Milleia will kill me thanks to the help of all the other Main Characters.

In the Third Game, I didn't finish so I didn't know but I heard that she was also important in this game. Of course, she could die but without her, it was hard to finish the Game and get the happy endings. 

I knew Milleia's potential and strength and that's why I first befriended her. It was the same for Jayden. With the two of them at my side, I felt a strange sense of safety BUT of course, I wasn't relying only on their plot armor or strength. If I reached such a level in only six months, it was because I needed power to defend myself—from Ante-Eden.
