I Am The Game's Villain



A dark place and dark mountains scattered around. 

No doubt anymore.

"A Human."

I recognized that voice immediately. 

I turned around and my eyes narrowed.

Before me, sitting on a throne made of rocks was a tall man. He had short black hair, a well-trimmed beard with red eyes in which golden slits were present. 

Is that his true form?

The two times I saw him, he was more like a monster than something human-like as now. 

And this time I could feel…his aura of a God.

I didn't have doubts that I was in front of God and…not a good-natured one.

I don't know how the hell I ended up here but…

I glanced on Baphomet's left and saw a red crystal floating. It had a similar aura as Eric so it must be Rubina's soul or something like that. He was corrupting her like he did with Annabelle. 

"You see…I had a weird dream recently." Baphomet said while tapping his finger on the armrest of his throne. "I killed a girl several years ago. It was nothing difficult. I first killed her mother and her weak-mind gave up to me."

"..."

"I'm certain that I had killed her but in that dream someone appeared in my isolated dimension and managed to save her. A mere dream." Baphomet said before staring at me. "But I don't believe in that. I am a very cautious man and I…will not approve of the existence of a mere human with the ability to enter and leave my dimension as he wishes." 

As he said that, Baphomet scanned me from head to toe, as if trying to peer through my soul.

"That girl is just an unfortunate one who fell on my sight just when I thought of finding out this mysterious ant who dared to taint my dream," Baphomet said as he swirled the crystal in his hand. "And here you are again in my dimension. Seeking death."

As soon as he finished, it became difficult for me to breathe. With sheer will, I kept myself from falling on my knees.

The first time I entered his dimension was thanks to Cleenah's Legacy but this time, if I had to guess, it's because of Annabelle being contracted to me. Since she inherited Baphomet's power, I also obtained some of his power, thus the reason why I was able to enter his dimension.

I should better leave before something happens.

I thought I could have done something to treat Rubina but guess I was wrong. This guy was way too strong for me. He was currently not comparable to the one I saw before.

Just when I was thinking that, a green light shone in the dark place and a familiar figure appeared in front of me. 

"Cleenah?"

With her long shining green hair, green eyes and flawless face, Cleenah appeared with a stern expression as she looked at Baphomet.

"Oh~" Baphomet stood up when he saw Cleenah. "The Colorless Goddess in person in my territory."

Colorless?

Baphomet's smile widened at Cleenah silence. "You are as beautiful as ever, Cleenah-"

"Enough flatterie Baphomet." Cleenah didn't seem in a good mood. 

Moreover, she seems to know Baphomet…

"Hm? You disappeared thousands of years ago and here you are in a perfect form and…accompanied by a human," Baphomet muttered before widening his eyes. "You chose to become a Legacy? His Legacy?"

Do you have a problem with that?

"This is something not even Athena would have guessed…you seem to have changed a lot as well…" Baphomet's eyes were only on Cleenah as he spoke about things that I couldn't understand.

Still, without showing much emotions, Cleenah spoke. "I am here only to warn you, Baphomet."

"Warn me?"

"Yes." Cleenah nodded. "Amael is with me. Forget whatever dreams or plans you had already thought of during this whole time." Her tone was threatening.

"Ahahaha!" Baphomet burst out laughing at Cleenah's words. "You got me there, Cleenah but your protegee stepped willingly in my territory and probably because of you, he can from now on enter and leave as he wishes as long as he approaches someone I already put my hands on. It's problematic you see."

What is problematic?!

Me trying to save a little girl or the pedo?!

"You are not in the situation to ask for anything, Baphomet. You are an enemy of Eden. You killed countless Gods and they are all looking for you. I just have to reveal what you are doing and where before they come for you."

Well, it wasn't really a surprise for me since he is an Evil God but again, he really killed a lot of Gods and managed to run away? It must explain why he chose to become a Legacy. It's easy to escape gazes from Gods like that. 

"Come for me?" Baphomet laughed out loud. "You should be the one worried about that, Cleenah. From what I remember, you have been banished to the mortal realm thousand of years ago."

Huh?

I looked at Cleenah.

Banished?

"The only reason you are still living right now is thanks to Zeus' obsession with you; otherwise, all those lunatics of Eden would have already killed you long ago."

Zeus…

He means…Jayden's Legacy?

"I am perfectly aware of that but I am safe with Amael." Cleenah said and put her hand on my shoulders.

"Wait." But Baphomet stopped her and threw the red crystal to me.

"Huh?"

"It's my gift," Baphomet said. "I am already satisfied to have seen Cleenah."

What the hell is he blabbering about?

"But." Baphomet's smile vanished as he sat back on his throne. "In a year or two, I will recover my body and not even you Cleenah will stop me from killing that brat."

"In a year or two?" I snorted at Baphomet. "At that time, I will be strong enough to kill you."

"I am disappointed in you Cleenah," Baphomet ignored me and spoke to Cleenah. "Someone of your caliber is choosing such a weak man? He will not go far with this mentality."

"What…?" I was about to take a step forward but a light engulfed before that. I just glared at that bastard before my vision blurred. 

….

….

"Ah!" I breathed out when I was brought back to the real world. 

"Hey, what did you do…" Eric asked me with an utterly shocked expression. 

Then Milleia "Sir Nyrel…she is awake…"

I looked down. My hand was still on Rubina's forehead. 

"T-Thank you…" Rubina thanked me with a healthier face than before. She didn't have that pale face anymore. She was still recovering so she fell asleep as soon as she muttered these words.

I stood up and leaned my back on the wall. I was tired mentally and physically after meeting Baphomet. I put on a tough front there but I was really shivering in front of his monstrous pressure. But in the end, that bastard noticed my state and even made fun of me.

I knew it.

Since I met Cleenah and the other two, I already knew that the Gods were clearly in another realm of strength compared to us, lesser races. Still, I didn't expect that Baphomet to be that strong. I couldn't even tell how strong he was since it was unfathomable. I felt like I couldn't beat him with even thousands of years of training…

'Cleenah?'

[<...>]

I sighed inwardly at her lack of answer. 

I knew she was there.

'You are angry?'

[<Angry? Of course I am angry, Amael!>]

I closed my ears but it was useless as her voice rang inside my mind.

'I know, it's my fault, I should have told y-'

[<Of course, you should have told me, Amael! I-I don't understand why you didn't even tell me that you met Baphomet until now! How can you forget to tell me something so important?!>]

I had never heard such a angry 

I was so engrossed with Milleia's Event and Annabelle's apparition that I just shrugged it off. 

'Well, I thought that he wouldn't remember me in the real world…'

[<Putting that aside, you knew it was dangerous and you still willingly chose to go for the second time in Baphomet's space? Without even informing me?>]

'Cleenah…I'm sorry.'

[<Amael, Baphomet would have killed without me interfering and he would have killed you even with me! Do you the reason why he decided to spare you and abandon his grip on that girl?>]

'...'

[<Laima. Laima is the only reason why he didn't even dare to harm you.>]

Laima?

I've got that strange impression of having already heard that name.

"!"

It's her?

I'm sure it's her.

'You mean the Goddess with white hair?'

[<Listen Amael. I know. I know I am useless for you>]

'No! I didn't mean my words, Cleenah-'

[<Amael. I can't help you and can't even intimidate Baphomet like you've seen. Laima would have been clearly a better help than me if she wills to help you.>]

'Cleenah. You know most of my thoughts. You know what I think of you.'

[<I know. But that's why I ask you to please rely on me more. If you don't even speak to me…am I that unreliable for you…?>]
