"Who are you? And what are you doing here?"
Albert asked Ian who was wearing his usual mask and robe.
"I apologize for not getting your permission beforehand. I felt like this would be the safest spot if we're meeting up in secret, you see."
That was indeed true. There was no other place in the kingdom as godforsaken as this palace, the one of the deceased queen. If it wasn't for Albert sending his own servants once in a while to take care of this place, it would've turned into a playground for the wild animals.
'To think this would be the fate of the queen of a kingdom...'
Ian couldn't help but sigh at the thought of it.
"You still haven't answered my question. Who are you? Remove your mask."
"Oh! I cannot do that, I apologize once again. As for my identity, I'm Noah, a prophet."
"A what?"

An Important Villain Audience with the King
After Ian told Albert the secret about his brother, Reynold, they couldn't continue their conversation for much longer. Albert was too distracted by his complicated thoughts and feelings to focus on anything else."We should end today's meeting here."Ian wanted to give Albert the time he needed go gather himself. They decided to meet on a later date and left the place. Arthur decided to escort Albert back to the palace so they parted their ways at that."Don't forget to do what I asked you."Ian said to the both of them. He had different instructions for Arthur which he had explained to him before leaving the place."The night air sure feels great."Ian said as he stretched. He was walking along the riverbank while enjoying the refreshing air of the night. It made him feel relaxed and calm."That's right. It's cold and refres
An Important Villain The King's Interest
Ian wondered for a second what he should say to get out of the situation quickly and he soon got a few answers. He judged them by their importance and chose one that'd be the toughest to achieve otherwise. Once he was done deciding, he looked at the King with a determined expression."It seems like you've finally found something that you want. Speak."Said the king with a smirk, wandering the extent of Ian's greed. And Ian was very greedy indeed, much more than what he could've expected."I wish for one of my knights to be bestowed the title of a Marquis."He said with a smug expression knowing how difficult it was to grant someone a title, even for the King. He wanted the King to have a hard time and intentionally asked for that."...What?""How presumptuous!""Such Impudence in front of the King!"The King was dumbfounded while his aids reacted viciously. Ian wondered if they'll ask him to get the hell out of ther
An Important Villain Not a fairytale
"There was this little kid and his brother. They were orphan.. and the world was a dangerous place to live in..." Ian said as he tried to remember that hellish world that he had to face all alone with only his brother by his side. The zombie attacks were the least of their worries. Whether they'll be able to find something to eat or drink the next day was much more worrisome and of importance. "But they still didn't give up. They fought and fought. They cried and laughed together, ate and starved together as well." 'It wasn't too bad a life.' Ian thought as he saw the prince wriggle under his blanket. "After a few years of struggling, they even managed to find people whom they could call family. Isn't that great?" Ian asked, knowing he won't receive a reply. He didn't mind either. "One day, the brothe
An Important Villain Another Simp For Albert
"That bastard finally opened his mouth?"Ian asked Corner as he sat down under the tree on the training ground. Corner nodded his head in confirmation at Ian's question. They were talking about the guy that they captured at Saint Mary's Island.Ian wondered what kind of hellish treatment that bastard went through to open his mouth so quickly. He was inwardly praising the torturer of their duchy, although he didn't know who it was."What did he say?"Ian wondered how much of the truth was revealed by his confession. He wanted to at least have the organisations goal revealed, even if not the details of their plans."Well.. pretty much everything..""Everything?""Yes. What young master said was correct. They were all a part of a cult. I'm amazed by the fact that they managed to stay hidden till now.""Yeah.
An Important Villain Brotherhood Restored!
'Am I really doing this?' Albert asked himself as he sat on the sofa inside Reynold's study. He was doubting his decision of storming into his brother's mansion after listening to some strangers words. 'What if it was all a lie?' He couldn't help but doubt. Even until a week ago, he thought that Reynold hated him to the point of not even making eye contact with him. But to think that the boy was actually trying to protect him and his rights while harming his own image. It was simply unbelievable. 'I better go back.' Albert stood up intending to leave the place but as he turned around, he came face to face with Reynold who also entered the room at that moment. "Whoa.." "Brother..." Albert who was startled, and Reynold who had a poker face, looked at each other.
An Important Villain A Monster's Den
After the first reunion of the Royal brothers, at least from Albert's perspective, they started seeing each other more and more often. It was kind of one sided since Albert decided to visit Reynold first in his palace with every chance he got. Reynold, who was also unable to control his expression in front of his brother, although he did complain everytime Albert visited, his words and actions were very different. They started having their lunch and dinner together since Albert would always barge in twice a day. Thrice sometimes as well. Both brother's were extremely happy on the inside, although one of them didn't show it properly. Few days later. It was time for them to visit Ian's mansion for their picnic. Albert and Reynold left the palace early in the morning to get there on time. Ian, who was also notified previously of Reynold's visi
An Important Villain A Warm Black
'A monster's den.'That's the first thought that came to Reynold's mind as he saw the scene unfold before his eyes.He was a prince. One of the strongest figure in the country, someone with great authority and power.And someone like that was afraid. He, someone who had seen his fair share of battle in his lifetime, was afraid of mere kids and slaves bound by contracts.He was scared of Ian, the supposedly weak noble who was roaming inside that monster's den so freely as if he owned the place.And the thing he was most afraid of was their 'potential'. He couldn't even begin to imagine what would happen, what hell would break through if Ian utilised these people in the future.Ian could also sense something wrong with Reynold's expression as he stood up. He only wanted to make fun of him for little while, not make him frightened t
An Important Villain An Incurable Problem
As Ian was watching the kids and Albert have breakfast, he simply moved his spoon across his plate. "Are you not hungry, brother?" Asked Henry, noticing Ian's weird behaviour. It was weird indeed since he never played with his food like that. He was the type to always enjoy their food wholeheartedly. "Oh.. no.. I'm just waiting for someone." "Waiting...?" "For whom?" Asked the brother's as they looked at Ian. "Ash. He was supposed to come by now." Ash couldn't come with Ian because he was in the middle of his attribute training. Ian didn't forget to leave a note beside him, telling him to come to the mansion once he was done. 'And it's way past the time when he finishes his training.' Ian couldn't help but worry since he would always watch
