"I will be a Villain in this life."

Chapter 6.

While Zavian was lying down on the bed, Yug tended to him before Simon arrived in the room.

"I thought you don't care about him."

"How can I ever stop caring about him? He was is and always will be my brother."

"Hmm..."

"Honestly, I was glad that he is not close with anyone because all the people are filthy, but I didn't realize how lonely he must have Felt."

"I am sorry, but I don't see any reason for you to abandon him."

"My father once beat me with a whip to death just because I had supported Zavian. I know he wanted to use me in order to make Zavian feel bad, but how can I let that happen?

He already blamed him for our mother's death. I can't allow him to use me to torment him? You must have heard all the rumors about him and how he is treated by the nobles, all thanks to him. Our lovely father."

Yug clenched his fists. "So he didn't spare you, huh?"

"He does not care for any of us, he has even started to slaughter the innocents in the name of grief and loss of his wife. He has gone too far, as far as to support the empress."

"And what are you doing about it? "

"All the servants here are loyal to Duke. my every action is reported to him and after what happened today I am sure we are both in danger."

Yug also had a grave expression," the empress and duke are working together, the empress wants me dead, she attacked Zavian and duke don't care whether both of you live or die"

"That's why I want to send him somewhere far from here before I kill the Duke because Zavian will surely not like it"

"Why?"

"Because even after everything he still yearns for our father's love I am sure he will hate me when I kill him and I can't do that but the truth is that the royal family and the nobility need some serious cleaning and he hates violence.

How can I tell him that the person he is loyal to is actually a criminal and a human trafficker? A person like duke has to die but I am sure he will not support me."

"And that worst part is that I have to help him, even if I want or not."

"This country needs a rebellion. And we don't have resources for it yet. No one is willing to support me a son of a traitor."

The two just stayed there with deep thoughts, not knowing that Zavian was actually listening to them trying his hardest not to cry.

His brother was actually suffering all these years all by himself.

Simon and Yug stayed with him for a few more hours before he fell asleep.

In the morning, Zavian's injuries were completely healed, each and every injury no matter how deep they were and no sign was left, he did his morning routine and proceeded towards the temple with a heavy heart. He wanted to meet his brother after coming back home.

Today he wanted to talk to his brother and tell him and he was thankful that he will always support him just as he was thinking about it he heard a commotion and the sound of glass breaking.

When Zavian ran towards the hall from where the sound came he saw his father Duke Seth, the powerful man he had always wished to meet but today he felt dread when he saw him he was brutally beating his brother.

The Duke kicked him and gripped his hair, "you damn bastard! You dared to go against me?"

The duo mercilessly beat him and banged his head against the wall. He also broke his arm right then and there while the head butler watched with a smirk.

The Duke picked a chair and was about to throw it toward Simon but Zavian protected him with his body thus taking the hit.

"Zavian! " Simon yelled and held his brother before glaring at the Duke, "you bastard."

Simon then picked up a rod and attacked the Duke with all his might. The Duke might be strong but Simon was also his son. He gave the duke a tough competition.

But in the end, the duke overpowered him with one swing. He cut off Simon's arm and pressed his face with his foot, and glared at Zavian. " I was kind enough to let a pest like you live but not anymore"

While Simon pushed the Duke and stood in front of Zavian "eyes down you bastard" the Duke warned but Simon continued to glare at him while Zavian held his brother's forearm as he looked with horror at the other arm.

"Brother, please listen to duke..."

Simon slightly turned his head and spoke," Runaway."

Zavian, who was dumbstruck, couldn't do anything when Simon was grabbed by the collar and his eyes were ripped off by the Duke one by one.

"NOOOOO BROTHER!!NO, "Zavian yelled and collapsed on the floor. His body gave up.

And the Duke threw Simon to the side as he picked up his sword and walked towards Zavian," you shall pay for your son's Today, I will bring her back"

The Duke raised his sword and aimed toward Zavian, but before the sword could touch him Simon blocked it this the sword pierced through his heart.

"B...brother?" Zavian whimpered but his brother only smiled lightly and said,"just go bunny"

The Duke threw Simon's body away with anger, "FEED IS BODY TO HUNGRY DOGS"

Zavian, who watched his brother's body being dragged, couldn't help but run out of the building.

He ran out with the injuries and tears all the way to the temple, but just when he reached the temple of the goddess another shock waited for him.

As soon as he reached the temple, he saw the temple was ransacked and the statue of the goddess was destroyed and Silas was sitting on the floor on his knees with Saintess standing with a sword in front of him.

"Why are you on his side? why don't you support us, you bastard?" Adeena yelled.

"I will never betray my goddess, and you can never kill me."

"Oh we'll see about that," she said and stabbed him in the heart.

"SILAS!!!" Zavian ran towards him and picked him up in his arms Silas's body was covered in blood and Zavian bit his hand and place it at Silas' mouth but Silas didn't respond much he just said," always believe the goddess" before he died in Zavian's arms.

Engulfed with rage, Zavian picked up the sword and aimed at the Saintess but she only screamed before the guards surrounded him.

"THIS MAN HAS KILLED THE HIGH PRIEST, AND HE TRIED TO ATTACK THE SAINTESS."

"NO, IT ISN'T TRUE THR SAINTESS IS LYING," Zavian yelled, but no one heard him as he was handcuffed and dragged outside with the crowd of people shouting angrily at him.

The people threw stones and different things at him. He was yelled at called names. Even his clothes were torn and his face was smeared with black ink. Even kids threw harmful stuff at him and their parents supported them. He wasn't allowed to sit in the carriage and his shoes were also taken off as he was forced to walk to the palace bare feet under the intense sunlight.

No one stopped them when his feet burned, no one stopped him when he couldn't keep up with the horse anymore and was dragged against the hot ground.

While the crowd either yelled at him or laughed at him, or wished even worse for him.

No one helped him.

He was dragged all the way to the castle and forced to walk in the dungeon before he was thrown in.

Zavian forced himself to sit up. One by one today's events flashed before his eyes and slowly tears flew down his cheeks before he burst into crying.

Why is this happening? why everything is going astray? What went wrong?

"Brother... I miss you, brother!" he cried
