With Ian's order, they returned to the back gate of the mansion after riding the horse again for some time. When he came down the horse with Ash, he ordered Corner to take the girl to his new house and keep her there with the others.
"And also, pay attention to the rumors' going around the duchy about me and report to me what you hear. Remember, none of these should reach my father."
"I'll do as you say, young master but... Umm...do you really have foresight?"
"Something like that."
"Then... Did you learn about her in the future? How does the future look? Did I retire with all my limbs attached?"
Corner, who could no longer suppress his curiosity, asked one question after another as he stared at Ian. Ian sighed as he stared at the middle aged man acting like a kid. He decided to be a little dishonest.
"Smile. I see lot's of smiles in the future."
Corner, whose eyes were sparkling like gems even moments ago, stared blankly

Ash, who was watching everything from the sideline noticed Arthur backing away slowly. He turned his head and saw that Ian was deep in thought and unaware."He's running away." Ash said grabbing Ian's shirt from the back as he pointed to Arthur. He was a very sharp kid."Y-you! You idiot! Come here before I drag you myself!" Arthur flinched and stopped moving back when Ian shouted. Ian was also flustered, seeing Arthur trying to run away. At this point, he thought it was his lack of sleep that was making him do this.'But he's the protagonist! And he's so weak! And I'm bored!'Yes. He was bored. One week was his limit. He really wasn't used to lying around and doing nothing all day. When he first came to this world, he thought about rolling around doing nothing all day. But it was impossible for someone like him to do that."Thanks. Now go back under the tree and read your book." Ian said as he patted Ash. He did as he
An Important Villain My Trustworthy Knights
Corner wanted Ian's guidance. And Ian complied with his request.They had quite the spectators by the time Corner started. Many knights approached them to watch their captain's demonstration. Corner's attribute was water, the same water that represented their duchy. Ian was also curious about his combat abilities since Corner couldn't fight properly the last time when the monster's attacked. He had used up most of his mana casting barrier and protecting Ian. Corner pulled out his sword. It was a longsword, different from their wooden swords and had a beautiful glow to it. Ian gauged that it was a pretty expensive one. Soon, the sword sparkled as water covered it's blade. He grabbed the helm with both of his hand and moved. Starting from the basic moves, his sword technique was a combination of thrusting, slicing and cutting the enemy cleanly. It was a sword style made for killing and nothing else. Ian was quite amazed as he watched on with curiousity. The techniques of this world w
An Important Villain A Place for Me
"I'm tired." Ian said as he lay flat on the bed. The ceiling of his room was as shiny as always. "I'm so tired." He said as he rolled around and grabbed a cookie from the bedside table. "I wish I could sleep. Haah." He chewed on the cookie as he sighed. He felt exhausted when he thought about going to the mansion. The kids from the sewer and Arthur's sister were all there. He still hadn't met any of them yet. He didn't want to think about it. It felt like he'd get tangled up in something bothersome. He looked up only to find Ash totally emerged in his book. The boy has been reading all the time ever since he took him to the library. Ian felt his exhaustion double as he looked at him. After spending half an hour successfully mopping in his bed, he finally got up. It was afternoon. He said he'd go to the mansion so he couldn't delay it any longer. After informing his father, he took Ash and two of his knights, which excluded both Corner and Arthur, he left for the mansion. T
An Important Villain Far Away from the Protagonist
"A teleportation circle to your mansion?"Miller looked a bit surprised as he looked at Ian. They were having dinner together when Ian suddenly asked for a teleportation circle to be installed in his room."Yes. Since I plan on visiting there often."Ian replied casually. They looked like father and son but at the same time, not like father and son as well."Sure. That's fine. But since it's a little risky to install it in your bedroom, how about the study?"Miller's point was reasonable. If the other mansion was to ever fall under attack, the attackers can directly invade Ian's room through the portal, putting his life in danger. But what Miller couldn't imagine was that the people Ian had in his mansion was going to have attack powers that'd even surpass a whole duchy's. So there was no way it'd be seized by an enemy."You're right, father. Then we'll do that."But Ian had no intention of telling Miller a

"So... What happened?"Ian, who was still in Steve's room, asked as soon as Steve entered the room. He looked like he already knew everything and was just asking to confirm the facts."As soon as he opened the letter, h
An Important Villain That Type of People, the Strays
Ian was less than five steps away when he realised he miscalculated. The amount of mana Arthur was releasing was astronomical. He had no way of closing the distance without getting badly injured. It would be considered lucky if all his limbs stayed intact. He kept cursing(Arthur) internally as he took a step forward.Slice.Ian heard the sound of something getting cut smoothly, following a severe pain in his left leg. There was a cut the size of an adults palm in his thigh. Blood poured out and wet his clothes. Ian clenched his teeth to not make any sound and looked forward once again.One step, two step, three step. When he was finally behind Arthur, his hands and legs had more cuts compared to before and the blood pooled around his feet.'How do I have so much blood?!'Ian was thinking stupid things even at a moment like this. When he was just a step away from Arthur, he stopped, covered his left hand with wind, layer by layer
An Important Villain I'm Not Some Hero
Ian was a very thorough person. Or so he says. He would always carry potion, emergency ration and other stuff in his spatial dimension ring. And once again, he was very satisfied with that habit of his. He took out two high grade potions from his ring and handed one over to Louis, the red haired boy in front of him.As he gulped down one of the potions himself, he could see his wounds getting healed in real time. The boy in front of him kept glancing between the bottle in his hand and Ian. His eyes were red and puffy after crying for a long time and his ears hung low in embarrassment."Drink. We don't have much time."Ian hurried him as he stood up. He then threw the robe he was wearing to the ground and went towards the stairs."Where are you going?"Louis asked, curious about everything Ian was doing."Well..Gotta make sure none of them went up.. Finish the potion before I return."'They must have a saf
An Important Villain The Protagonists Party
"Here, drink this."A blonde haired girl handed Arthur a bottle of potion as she said. They were currently inside a worn-out building with two other people. One of them was an elf, and the others identity was unclear due to his fully covered appearance."How long was I out for?"Arthur asked and gulped down the potion next. Most of his injuries were caused by the mana explosion that happened inside his body. It was a result of trying to merge two different attributes. Attributes are like people, each with a different personality, trying to make them combine was bound to cause casualties."Six hour, thirty five minute and forty second."Replied the man who was wearing a robe and covering himself from head to toe. Arthur didn't find it weird since he has been with them for a long time now. He simply nodded his head and turned around."And the thing I asked for?"Arthur asked, looking at the elf. She w
