"I will be a Villain in this life."

chapter 1.

Zavian's Pov.

Waking up is the most unpleasant Job in the world.

Here I was sitting on the cold bed in a dark room. The servants didn't even bother to open the curtains, not come and greet me as their master.

I lost my faith in them a long time ago. I formula from my bed and opened the curtains. Looking outside.

I then proceeded to take a bath in ice-cold water since no one bothered to warm it for me.

Even though I am the son of Duke, I am treated like trash in this kingdom.

After wearing my clothes, I went outside the room. The servants were right outside the room and didn't even bother to greet me, whereas the head butler he does not even try to hide his hate towards me.

It has been ten years since my mother's death and to this day I am to be blamed.

My father has been on the battlefield ever since then and my elder brother is the one who handles the affairs.

I walk towards the temple to offer my prayers to the goddess.

In the last ten years, only the goddess has been my comfort for me, but another development has happened in the last few years. People are more and more worshipping the Saintess who have received the blessing of goddess Duat.

Ever since then, people have been blindly following her. When I reached the temple, I was once again greeted by Silas.

Even though he couldn't see me, he could still smile and know that I have arrived without looking at me.

"Young master, Zavian, good morning"

"Good morning Silas," I said, I would help him in cleaning the goddess's temple since no one bothers to do that anymore.

Silas is someone I really like, perhaps more than anyone.

After we were done cleaning, I offered my prayers to the goddess and said goodbye to Him before going out of the temple.

However, before I could even step out I was met with the Saintess, she was still the most beautiful lady to ever exist and I smiled at her and bowed.

It is said that the person, who is favored by God, is often blessed with special powers and she was blessed with her power to heal. I respected her and admired her for that.

She smiled at me as well," young master Zavian, how some come you are going so soon?"

"I have already offered my prayers to the goddess, and it's time for me to leave"

The saintess smiled. " I admire you for your Devotion to the goddess Ankh. Even after she killed your, mother, you still favor her"

This made me smile and even though I didn't say anything, I still felt bad about it. My mother died by choice. Nobody forced her, then why do people blame the goddess?

Goddess didn't save me, my mother did.

"Perhaps you should also show some devotion to the goddess Duat"

I smiled and only greeted her before leaving. It's not that I hate it and dislike goddess Duat, I respect her as well, but my devotion and connection have always been with goddess Ankh.

On my way back to the house I heard someone calling me, "if it isn't the young master Zavian."

I clenched my fists and forced a smile. It was the daughter of Count Churchill, Ruby Churchill, " I didn't expect to see you here. Are you perhaps here to offer your prayer to that partial goddess?"

I smiled and answered," yes Lady Ruby."

Ruby eyed me from top to bottom. Her gaze made me uncomfortable," even though you are the son of the most powerful Duke, you are still roaming around freely without a knight or a servant. They really don't care about, you, do they?

"How about you marry me? My family can provide better treatment and duke to you."

"Lady Ruby, you seem to be very good at joking, however, I don't enjoy this joke"

Lady Ruby's smile suddenly vanished as she looked at me with hate this time." I was being kind to you, but it seems like you really don't know when to appreciate kindness"

I couldn't say anything to her in return. And how can I? I didn't have the guts. If I say something, it will backfire on me, the count will blame me, father and brother will blame me as well.

So I just bowed my head slightly and quickly left from there.

This is not something uncommon. It happens almost, everyday daughter of a count who is supposed to be lower in the hierarchy than me dares to mock me.

Not just her anyone who knows me, always looks at me with disdain, even the shop owners, sometimes.

A mocking smile appeared on my face when I think about this.

Life is really weird.

When I reached home, no one really noticed me, and those who did just walked past me.

I was going towards my room when encountered my brother. He had that same cold expression on his face.

My brother was the same height as me. He had very fair skin and black eyes, and a slight bunny face just like me.

"Greetings elder..." I hadn't even completed my sentence when he walked past me and didn't bother listening to me.

I wonder what in the world I have to do to get my protective older brother back.

How many times do I have to apologize for him to finally listen to me?

I still haven't given up on my family. I wish to have them back one day.

When I reached back to my room, I saw a letter on my table. It was an invitation to attend the 15th birthday of Sapphire. Churchill, the elder sister, is Ruby.

I wonder if this is some kind of joke or prank, but the letters said that she will especially wait for me and apologize for her sister's actions.

A smile crept on my face and excitement found its way to my heart when I realized that this could be my chance to make some friends.
