How I Become The World's Greatest Villain
In the land of Yigena where two suns rise and set. Four kingdoms coexist with each other. With the Silver Bloods riding their dragons as they lead their nations, the Red Bloods struggle for power. It has been like this for centuries. From the eastern kingdom of Raxes, an outcast named Ryzen, and his twin sister, Raya, faces the daunting annual coming-of-age ceremony for all the sixteen years old in the kingdom. Being born from the cursed Red Bloods, they either become the rich red blood's slave or become the Avatar.
Being the Avatar means death, for whoever crosses the wall never makes it back alive. But the gods never answer their prayers; his twin sister got selected to be an Avatar. Fear-stricken, he made a drastic choice. Now he is Raya Rozenhart, the new Avatar, chained to guard the kingdom against the terror outside the wall.
Leaving his old self, he faces the unknown. But his tale has yet to start when the horrors outside the wall grow stronger each day. Sent to conquest to find the people who can only save the land, he sets off to search high and low for the seven mythical criminals.

Chapter: Two Years LaterThe harsh winter breeze seemed like a needle in his bare arms. Everything around him ached as if a dozen of Minotaurs rough-handled him. Ryzen was very much aware that he did open his eyes, but what startled him was that he could not see anything at all. With his sensitive hearing, he could hear the breathing of three more creatures under the sheath of winter blaze. Ryzen tried to use his limbs, but he was left immobilized under the three pairs of eyes for some reason. He could not even open his mouth, even though he was not gagged.A soft hand caressed his cheeks. "You shall wear this blindfold whenever you are around other people. This is a tradition for all the Avatars. You can only take it off once you're outside the wall." A soft voice said. Her voice seemed like a melody soothing his soul. She was neither the seer nor the wizard. Who could she be?An arm snaked around his numb body before dragging him somewhere else. His three breathings decreased to one when he was nearing th

Chapter: Avatar's InitiationThe seer was gone for two hours already, and Ryzen Rozenhart was left alone in the dingy old cellar. He was treated like a prisoner, with a centaur guarding beyond the locked door and at the end of the hallway. He could tell using the beast's eyes. There was no need to hide anything anymore.He was drifting back to sleep when the rustic door flew open. Ryzen was greeted with the presence of the seer. 'Oh, she has company.'A girl, barely ten years old in her physical appearance, was with the seer. With the pointed hat she was sporting, he could tell that the seer's companion was not any ten-year-old kid. Wizards tend to be deceiving in their appearance, after all."To be a fully pledged Avatar with a new identity, you must face the initiation every Avatar went through for centuries." The seer seriously informed him; the void in her gaze penetrated Ryzen, now Raya.'An initiation?'The centaur came again and led Ryzen to the much more profound and darker part of the cellar. It reeked

Chapter: I Am Raya RozenhartIn the southern part of Yigena there lies a kingdom ruled by the Red-haired Silver Bloods. They worshiped the fire gods, and only them. Unlike the eastern and northern kingdoms, the southern kingdom had the red sun and fire-breathing dragons. It was common knowledge that the southern kingdom was the strongest among other kingdoms and led by the most ruthless and oldest Silver Bloods.As the scorching red rays of the sun seemed to penetrate the throne room, the king who sat on his throne stared at his son before him. His queen beside him never stopped scolding their son. His squires seemed to be uncomfortable by their queen's outburst while his son seemed to be relaxed though he was not looking at them."Queen Reza, let the prince go." the king calmly said but the queen huffed."You tend to spoil your son, my dear. He should learn some humility and not use his dragon against his people. " The queen reasoned. Earlier this day, their son, the prince of the kingdom of Euria, Frex, went

Chapter: Ryzen's ChoiceRyzen swiftly captured the blue butterfly.When its wings touched his palm, the butterfly turned into golden specks of dust and vanished into thin air, thus, leaving the piece of paper on his palm. Raya was still so busy admiring the event unfolding before her that she failed to notice the real magic happening beside her. Ryzen's heart thundered with dread as he slowly unfolded the piece of yellowish paper on his palm. He did not know how he would know what was written on it. After all, the lowest races did not have the privilege of learning how to write and read.Glancing toward the stage, ten flags were raised by each centaur. Each flag seemed to be a banner representing the teens' fate in this arena. Each flag had an embroidered drawing at the center of each flag. There was a book for the scholars or mentors, a home for the housekeeping, a shield for the guards, a sword for the next generation red blood soldiers, a feather for the messengers, an aristocrat hat for the silver blood

Chapter: Start Of CeremonyThe round arena owned by the wealthy dwarflings in the kingdom of Raxes was fully packed with teens from different races. These teens, with their parents, took a seat from the bleachers with only one thought running through their minds, the annual coming-of-age ceremony. The siblings, Ryzen and Raya, took the farthest seat from the bleacher assigned to the lowest races. The distance was not a big deal for Ryzen. First, he was not that interested, if not only for Raya. Second, using the beast's eyes would bring them trouble, and he could not risk it.The center of the stage looked extravagant. It was also there that the silver holy knights and centaurs formed a circle position tasked by the crown to protect the sacred fire of Raxes. At the center of the stage was a huge goblet where the sacred crimson fire was laid. Behind it was the thrones for the King, the Queen, and the heirs.Ryzen looked at the giant hourglass above the arena designed for this event only. It showed there would be

Chapter: I Don't Need Alms, Silver BloodRyzen and Raya were so used to a rural area that they felt overwhelmed by the drastic changes in the scenery. After passing the wall, Ryzen failed to take a glimpse of the captain of the holy knights that everyone in Raxes knew. Shrugging his disappointment, a red blood soldier gave them a pamphlet about the details of the annual coming-of-age ceremony. It said that after the bell of Korendell rang, the ceremony started, but the official selection or the main event would be held an hour before midnight. 'So we have four hours left as a free individuals before being proclaimed as a slave to some arrogant red blood noble,' he bitterly thought. He glanced at Raya, who was happily walking beside him while she linked their arms together. Her gaze never stayed put, and it was twinkling with happiness.'Happiness that would be gone long after midnight.'If this was his last drop of freedom, then he might as well enjoy it. Doing what Raya was doing, he looked awed as Raxians from different

Chapter: Murder Case: Alchemist Department's First DeathAfter returning to his dormitory, Cielo immediately let Rito out as he calmed the chaotic energy within him. In the middle of the night, a strange dark figure silently swept across Trinity College.Cielo had only started his cultivation when there was suddenly a commotion heard from outside. He opened his eyes as there was a sudden knock on his room door.He stood up to open the door to see Jason standing outside the door with an extremely unpleasant look.“What’s wrong?” Cielo asked—an evident frown on his face.Jason looked at him with a grim look. “Something happened.”Something had happened at the department which is especially built for alchemists. In the continent, many could become a warrior and a beast tamers through sheer luck or perseverance, but to be an alchemist needed more than just that—it needed innate talent. Even though there were only a few alchemists in the school, the Trinity College was the next best equipped compared to the other schools in the Government League

Chapter: Refining The First Heart BloodCielo placed the Night-Luminescent Pearl, given by Velicia, on the candlestick on the wall and used the dim light to examine the secret chamber. The secret chamber was very narrow, less than two meters in length and width, and less than three meters in height.There was only a round futon in the secret room. Cielo walked over to the mat and sat down. As soon as he sat down, he saw a faint blue light floating in the secret chamber.“What’s this?”‘Touch it.’ Rito answered in his mind in a sleepy tone; he liked the dense energy here.Cielo extended his finger and a strand of blue light coiled around his fingertip. When he sensed the energy’s fluctuation from the light, Cielo realized that it was the energy of someone with strength at least a Divine Tier and at most a God Tier.Cielo hurriedly stood up, clasped his hands, and bowed in gratitude toward the light. Only then did he sit cross-legged on the praying mat again to consume the energy as his own before he started the refining of t

Only then did he realize that it was the end of the year.Cielo suddenly thought of the time when he was young and spent the New Year with his little sister and mother while his father and his new son were happily dining at the clan’s main house. His mind wandered to his past life, making him shake his head immediately.Velicia had left the Trinity College a few days ago. She went out to do some work for the Aberon Clan and returned today. When she came back, she saw Cielo standing on the balcony of the dormitory while admiring the snow.Seeing that Cielo was only wearing a warm gray sweater and not a coat, Velicia frowned and said, “Cielo, come in quickly. It’s cold outside.”C

Chapter: The First Heart BloodThree days after the Ranking Tournament, an incident wracked Trinity College. Apparently, Lexa suffered a lightning tribulation after forcibly absorbing a beast’s core in hopes to level up her tier. The result led to the current situation—her grandfather, the Patriarch of the Liam Clan, came knocking on Trinity College with a deep frown he could master.“How can you call yourself teachers and principal when you cannot even stop the tribulation from hurting my daughter? Expelling her is not enough! Now, you want to cripple her as well? Is this really the Trinity College?”Upon hearing this, Professor He Xiaosi laughed out of anger. “As warriors, who don’t rely on their own abilities to withstand Tribulation lightning?”Thinking of Gregor Liam’s dirty past, Professor He Xiaosi’s face revealed a hint of mockery. He said meaningfully, “Patriarch Gregor Liam, have you forgotten that the reason you were able to sit on the seat of the patriarch of the Liam Clan was due to the tribulation lig

Chapter: Ranking's Top 1Qiao Ye looked at Cielo in a daze. He lowered his head and cast his line of sight down to his own two hands that were still trembling slightly.He lost!He was defeated so thoroughly without a chance of turning the tides!“What is this? Cielo won?”The audience erupted. Words of disbelief and cheers for the victor collided. Those who were still dazed were the people who had mocked Cielo Regalia a few minutes ago. And those who were applauding were the silent spectators who were waiting and hoping for Cielo Regalia to rise amid adversity.Another student answered with a sneer. “Of course! Are you blind? Wasn’t it obvious enough?”“No, it’s just that I find it too hard to believe! Our Trinity College’s peerless genius has actually been defeated just like that.”“Cielo is the true peerless genius! That was too amazing! I have decided that he will be my idol from now on.”In the audience area facing the stage, there were currently a lot of discussions going around and voices were being ra

Chapter: Divine Tier Battle WolfAt present, Velicia’s pupils contracted and her fists clenched slightly. She was feeling very nervous as she watched Cielo battle onstage. As long as Cielo refused to use the full potential of God’s Eyes, everything was dangerous.‘What is your plan, Cielo?’ Velicia could only ask herself.James began to wail. “Oh no, Cielo! It’s too dangerous! It’s too dangerous!”Niel Klyn steadily kept his eyes on the duel without uttering a word.With a few quick pierce and slash of his sword, Cielo finally managed to make the Battle Wolf retreat.Although his exchange of blows with the Battle Wolf was brief, Cielo alone was the most aware of the danger they contained. If he had wielded his sword just a little slower or if his energy was just a tad weaker, he would have already lost at this moment.Cielo narrowed his eyes at the mark the whip left on the ground. If his steps had been just a second slower, would that whip have slashed her face instead of the ground? It seems as though Qiao Ye had d

Chapter: Disposable ToolsI’m at the Queen’s office right now. It’s Saturday, and there are no classes. That’s why I don’t need to see the Seven Sins. I asked them what they were doing on weekends, but no one answered. They remove their masks and live like ordinary people for the next two days. To think that the Seven Sins have everyday lives aside from following the Void’s rules is a foreign concept to me. Maybe because I saw how they kill people without any guilt at all. If they’re not like us, the Phoenix, perhaps they have everyday lives. After all, they’re still a bunch of high school students. But they are the younger version of Phoenix, the Void's Sword.I gulp the contents of the glass of beer.“So, you came here to drink? I just want to remind you that this is my office, not a bar.”When I looked back, I saw the Queen of the Void standing there. She is wearing a black backless dress, holding her eldest kid with her right hand. On her left hand is a champagne flute.“Oh, where’s King Kiel? Why are you

Chapter: The Ratio Of The Dark ArmsEven though Greed and Gluttony are already compromised by Claudia’s ability, Pride and Wrath are still calm while standing beside Grim. When Grim looks at Wrath, she is eating a lollipop that he doesn’t know where she got. When she felt him staring at her, Wrath glared at him. “I’ll shoot you with my Mad Hatter if you ask for my lollipop.” Wrath threatened, making Pride shake his head.“Leave him alone, Wrath,” Pride said. “You’re the only childish one in the group.”“Of course not! It’s Gluttony.”Grim could feel Wrath’s pouting lips even behind her mask.The twins, who are just kneeling a while ago, are now lying on the ground on their stomachs. Claudia doubled the gravity field of her Tatara. But since she’s a Dark Arms user, she can freely walk anywhere. Her eyes are already dead, and no emotion can be reflected. She looks like someone who just gave up life and let the Dark Arms control her.“She will enter the Abyss,” Wrath mentioned.“Abyss?” Grim asked.“There is a balance bet

Chapter: Asterisk FamilyThe whole block of the residential area in Sector 3 is peaceful. Even though this is a residential space, the houses are still far from each other. Security is also tight in each home. And the Seven Sins know that the hired guards scattered in this area are all graduates of D University. Like how they do things, someone will become the decoy who will approach the target. The bait often isn’t going to take part in the fight. And since this is Grim’s first mission as the leader of Sector 7, he will become the decoy.Grim is hesitant, but he doesn’t want them to know, especially after what Fallen Angel told him.Flashback...“We don’t even have a proper plan. They said that before I make a plan for them, I must get to know them first.” Grim is frustrated at the woman on the other side of the phone.He is in the faculty room because it is lunchtime, aside from him who stayed. After all, the queen called him.The queen answered her with a cold laugh before saying, “Stop whining, Grim. Sho

Chapter: Meet The SinsThe King of the Void and the Queen of the Void's orders are clear. Make sure that nothing will go wrong on every mission. We have to bring back the lost Dark Arms to the Void no matter what happens.And here I am, precisely eight in the morning, already in front of the room where I'll be working. I will be staying here from now on – as a goddamn teacher of all things. When I open the door, a few students are sitting inside already. Though covered with their god-awful masks, my hackles raised upon their underhanded gazes. It is as if they are the predators assessing whether how they will treat me – kill me raw or slaughter me later.I am pretty used to this kind of gaze. Should I have said good morning? The fool I am, I momentarily forgot my other goal – to treat them like any typical student. Opening my mouth to greet them, the door bangs open. The remaining three members trot inside the room without a word. I don't know who is who, but I know they're the Seven Sins. I'll only know w

Chapter: Know The SinsTRINITY HIGH IS LOCATED in Zone 13 of the Void. This zone is a new project of the Void for the new citizens. The place is more industrialized. New establishments are built here. Even though it was only established three years ago, this school is already grand. It is like a massive palace from Ancient Europe. This school caters to students from elementary to high school. On the other hand, D University accepts college students.“Sir Chase!” Flustered by my sudden arrival, the guard immediately opened the driveway for me.It has always been like this. Either they recoil from my presence, or they run from it. I take my sweet time as I trudge into the school. Glancing at my watch as I walked along the eight-columned halls, my footsteps echoed around.Teachers talking with each other and students giggling welcomed me as soon as I took the turn on the nearest right corner of the hallway I was trudging a moment ago. As I walked deeper, a couple of gazes shifted at me, and I could not blame

And so I did become one of them – one way or another.Now, I am on a mission as I trudge my way to answer the call of my superior. I trot my way to the death – or so what miscreants call her.Getting a special summon by the Queen of the Void herself is something I am not looking forward to. It has not been long since I arrive at Sector VI, the place in the Void where the King and Queen had asked me to watch over.Sector VI. This is where I keep track of drug syndicates, fighting pits, and human trading. Under my jurisdiction, citizens from the Void cannot get involved with these transactions. The safety of the children, women, and elderly must be ensured at all costs. We may be marked by the Void, but we always take care of one of our own.People recoil at the sight of criminals. They call them monsters. But they don’t know what is lurking below them. The Void consumes all and pr
