I Am The Game's Villain

"It's a draw!"

At Theo's words, the spectators clapped loudly.

They were still in shock at what I did, since it was completely against the spirit of Skyball to sacrifice mates.

Well, I didn't have a choice.

[<You were behaving a little strangely…>]

'Don't start it, Cleenah.'

I sighed.

[<I'm not->]

"What a great talent you showed us, Edward."

As soon I landed on the ground, professor Julia threw me a glare.

"I didn't have a choice and they agreed anyway."

I shrugged.

"We tied with the opposite team, which included the great, experienced Dylan, so I hope we deserve more than some claps for our performance."

I said as I removed my bracers and the boots.

"You sharpened your tongue in a few years, Edward, but yes, you still didn't lose despite the disadvantage."

Professor Julia glared at Dylan, who was glaring at me.

He quickly averted his face when he noticed Julia's glare.

Jayden and Tyler joined me.

They seemed nervous and their faces were still red.

That's what happens when no girl has touched you for a decade.

[<You are in the same case though?>]

'What about Mary?'

[<Don't you have any shame? She is contracted to you.>]

'Yeah! I have no shame!'

I hurled back.

"It's decided. We will take the three of you. As for the others, they will have to pass several other tests before we make our decision."

At professor Julia's words, the three of us sighed in relief.

It had a different meaning though, since I wasn't here to enjoy it.

[<Pretty sure you will enjoy it.>]

'A girl like you will never get a boyfriend, I swear.'

ραпdα Йᴏνêl(сòm) [<I-I already had a boyfriend!>]

Cleenah's voice turned high-pitched.

It was a little cute…

'Yeah, yeah, it's Brad Pitt, I know.'

I scoffed at her.

"Now, you will have to declare your sponsor."

"Sponsor?"

Jayden was confused.

"Yes. A sponsor is a senior of the club who will help you during your practice and stay at the club until you are completely integrated into the club."

Yeah, and the Sponsor will get bonus Eden Points for her class if he/she gets an Endorser.

"I see…"

Jayden and Tyler nodded in understanding.

"We will take them."

A new voice rang.

I turned around and saw a group of three students.

In my amber eyes were reflected Miranda, Lea and Theo.

Three people I met in the Enigma Dungeon, but I have also met at parties or banquets.

"I will leave them in your hands then."

Julia gave a glance at her niece, Miranda, before walking away.

"Come, you just have to fulfill a form."

Lea was the one speaking with a smile at Jayden and Tyler.

Yeah, I was clearly not included when she said 'we will take them'.

Lea was Miranda's closest friend.

Miranda probably confided to her everything about me, so there was a high chance that Lea hated me.

""Y-Yes.""

Jayden and Tyler nervously walked toward Lea and the other two.

I glanced at Miranda.

As beautiful as ever.

She was without doubt my first love in this world.

When I was a child, until ten, I couldn't see my life without her.

Miranda.

Her dark green hair reaching her neck was tied with a green hairpin and was letting loose on her shoulders. Her tangerine eyes didn't look back at me but seemed to look at something far away. She was clearly avoiding my gaze.

("You are better with long hair, Miranda.")

I smiled, remembering my childish words as I saw Miranda's current haircut, which was short at neck's length.

"Edward, what are you doing?"

"Hurry up man."

Jayden and Tyler called out to me as I didn't move.

"No."

Lea spoke before I could say a word.

"We are willing to take you, but not…him."please visit panda-:)ɴᴏᴠᴇ1.co)m

I smiled when I saw Lea having a hard time controlling her expression to distort into disgust.

I was used to seeing people forcing a fake smile hiding their disgust towards me, so it was easy to guess.

Strangely, Miranda wasn't hiding disgust or anything.

She just feels nothing about me anymore.

A little pain prickled my chest a little as I thought about that.

No.

I immediately erased any thoughts starting to arise in my mind.

"Oh my, isn't that Miranda Stormdila?"

The uncomfortable silence was broken by a girl's voice.

She is finally here.

I turned around and saw a young woman whose beauty didn't lose at all to Miranda.

Jayden and Tyler, who were just recovering from Miranda's sight, froze again.

Long bright red hair flowed down the seventeen-year-old girl. Her pinafore uniform could only enhance her delicate features.

She was the last [Main Heroine] of the First Game.

"Kleah…"

Miranda was forced to speak when her rival showed up.

Kleah Toyreas.

She was the younger sister of a [Monarch], so like Miranda, she was affiliated with a Monarch.

Kleah's leaf green eyes stared at Miranda.

"Are you causing trouble on an important day, Miranda?"

Kleah crossed her arms and asked.

"Tell me, juniors, if she causes trouble. I will expel her from our club."

""What?!""

Jayden and Tyler let out a shocked voice.

They didn't ask for anything and didn't want to be in trouble either.

"Don't you have anything else to do, Kleah?"

Miranda, for the first time, smiled, but it wasn't a gentle smile.

It was an irritated one.

"I'm doing it, Miranda. Professor Julia, your aunt, my homeroom teacher, asked me to oversee the smooth running of our club's presentation. When I was strolling, I happened to see Lea just harassing a junior who just wanted a sponsor? Is that the mentality of the Second year's Dragon class?"

Kleah tilted her head with a smile.

I stepped aside a bit from her, since her perfume was really intoxicating me, and coupled with her beauty, it was hard to not want to look forever at her….like Jayden and Tyler who were doing it shamelessly.

"I-I didn't harass him!"

Lea couldn't remain silent about Kleah's outrageous allegations.

"If you are so worried about him, why don't you take him as your endorser, Kleah?"

When Miranda retorted with a demand, Kleah froze.

Because Kleah had never taken endorsers since she integrated the club.

The reason for that was unknown to everyone in the club, but they knew that Kleah didn't want anyone too near to her.

No students knew about Kleah's secret except two people.

There was obviously me since I knew from the game and the second one was…

"What's up, Jayden? You sure look at her like you have never seen a girl ahahaha"

Tyler laughed even though he was the one most touched by Kleah's beauty.

Anyway.

Jayden first froze because of Kleah's surreal beauty, but second because he felt Kleah's peculiarity. He felt Kleah's elven aura.

Because yes. Kleah was a half-elf.

…and half-elves, no- Elves globally weren't seen nicely in the human kingdom of Celesta.

If the truth about her was one day revealed, it would be the end of life in the academy and it would cause problems for her sister, who was currently seen as a human Monarch.

Kleah had a strong artifact containing her elven aura or mana but she knew it wasn't enough to completely erase her genes. Indeed, the headmaster soon noticed it but he was the only one, since he was a freak. As for Jayden, he was a future freak, so it was normal.

"..."

Kleah glared at Miranda.

"I would be glad to get sponsored by senior Kleah."

I raised my hand and smiled at Kleah.

"N-No, I am not looking for any endorser."

Kleah shook her head.

I have to become her endorser to create a bond between her and Jayden. Of course, you'd say it would be easier to make Jayden Kleah's endorser, but then what about Miranda? She also had to become Jayden's lover. Moreover, Kleah was extremely wary of boys, so she would never open up to Jayden easily and with that guy's denseness, it would never work out.

I have to force Kleah's route and I can only do it as her endorser. The good news was that Kleah doesn't really know about me. Since she was the sister of a Monarch, she became automatically a noble monarch, but because of her elven heritage, she avoided all feasts.

She didn't have an interest in news either, so I was just a normal boy for her. She just knew that I was the son of a Duke, so a high-ranking noble, that's all.

"It's a problem senior. Since no one is willing to take me. I plead for your goodness."

I approached her and…inhibited all my men's instincts to avoid falling for her nervous expression!

Kleah took a step back each time I took a step forward.

"I know senior."

"W-What?"

"I know about…"

I touched my ears and stretched out my finger as if to elongate my ear.

"!"

Kleah's expression warped into horror, understanding what I meant.

"S-Since you are so desperate, I will sponsor you and take you under my wing!"

"What?!"

That voice belongs to Miranda.
