Villain of my own novel



As soon as Ecrirn came in contact with the dome, a hazy feeling struck him, making him feel extremely lethargic, so lethargic that he literally just wanted to slump on the ground to sleep, he could hear a soothing rhythm ringing in his consciousness while make him feel want to fall asleep, forever if he could.

DING-!

[A user is recognised to have started a raid on the a Fallen's area!]

[Time limit for the first and last quest has begun!]

[Time limit: 00Y: 179D: 36H: 59M: 59S]

As soon as the timer started, rewards were issued to Ecrirn even though he had yet to get out of the dome to really complete the quest given to him, and without his consent, "Marionette" skill got activated and behind him a humongous blackish red arm materialized and reached out towards Ecrirn, who was dazed, lazily.

The arm that materialised out of nowhere from behind Ecrirn, soon, reached out at him and picked him up by his head which was held between the arm's thumb and index fingers, with a subtle flick, Ecrirn's body shot back out of the dome which had began to devour him.

THUD-!

With a loud thud, Ecrirn's prototype body fell on the ground out of the dome and without even flinching in the slightest, Ecrirn slept soundly, as the arm behind him dematerialised.

[Good work....] His god spoke again, but Ecrirn wasn't able to hear.

***

The warnings of the time limit activation chimed across the entire world, alarming every existence that had even the slightest hope to live! While also igniting the last embers of their dying down yet raging desires to live!

While the world was thrown into a chaos, the one who was the cause was looking intently at the long, white-haired beautiful woman in front of him.

"W-what?" Isha asked stuttering, the longer she stared at Eshwar's intently gazing and glimmering gaze, the more she was getting embarrassed.

'Wh-why am I getting flustered? We have done it a bit too many times for me to be getting embarrassed!!' Isha pondered inwardly while her face flushed crimson with a puff.

"Once? Just once! Pretty please?" Eshwar asked, knowing what he was asking for, Isha's fluster increased by a notch.

"Don't "pretty please" me! You are not Mia!" Isha yelped at him as she avoided his adorable gaze.

'W-why is he so adorable!!!? Ghaaaaa!!!' Isha thought, screaming inwardly.

"He! He! He! Of course, Mia will learn from her father!" Eshwar muttered, pumping out his chest as he gloated in pride.

"Hmph!" Isha snorted and began to walk towards the door behind him.

"!!!" Her pupils dilated when Eshwar's hands slithered around her waist like a snake, which he was, and picked her off of the ground, and dropped her off on the bed before she even put up a struggle against his actions.

"W-wa-wait!" Isha yelped but it was too no avail as Eshwar leaned down on her, reaching for her lips with his, just as she was about to sigh and give up on putting up an act of resistance against his actions, she noticed Eshwar's body stiffen.

"??" Isha tilted her head to the side, cutely.

"Don't do that, I'll bite you for real." Eshwar muttered gazing at his adorable wife.

"What's wrong?" Isha asked, ignoring his words which he meant for real.

"Haaa.... Having worshipers sure is annoying...." He muttered under his breath, understanding his words Isha loosened her involuntarily wrapped arms around his neck with a pout.

".... Come back soon." Isha muttered as she supported herself with her elbows as she pushed herself up, intending to get up, but the grip on her shoulders pushed her back onto the bed and before confusion dawned her mind, she felt something soft on her lips which she lost herself in when she realised what the softness on her lips was.

*

After their minutes long, passionate kiss that got both of them heated up at the extreme, Eshwar finally, albeit extremely reluctantly, broke the kiss, he gazed into Isha's tear-filled gaze, but before he spoke;

".... Go," Isha muttered on his lips and felt a hot sigh on her lips.

"..... But come back soon...." She said and turned away, somehow managing to escape from his clutches as she rolled up in the bedsheets.

Chuckling at her actions, Eshwar's nodded and stood back up,

"I'll be back." He said and disappeared from the spot where he was.

"Mhmn...." Isha nodded under the bedsheets after he had left.

Minutes ago.

Seo Hana, who had received the notice of the time limit being active just like everyone else, stood dazed in shock and confusion.

'Wha....' Just as she was about question reality and begin to analyse all kinds of information to make sense of what was going on, Eshwar's cold and indifferent face flashed in her mind, making her shudder involuntarily.

'I-it can't be, right?' Hana thought inwardly.

Many disastrous scenarios happened in her presence ever since Eshwar made his presence, as a stronger being, known to the world, Antinoüs!

'It could have been a coincidence. Somebody could have framed him behind his back.'

Or any other thoughts even similarly to that flashed in her mind.

'No.... Everything happened after he came to this world with all the others!' Seo Hana concluded extremely quickly as if she trusted her conclusion to be too true. There was a situation where an entire city was razed to the ground, and it was at the exact time when "coincidentally" Eshwar's presence wasn't known to the world Antinoüs at that time, but his presence and name was revealed at the academy in the matter of a week after that plight, just like that.

The culprit hasn't been found till date, nor did anybody try to find who the culprit was in the first place, even when so many lives were lost in a day.

'This....'

Seo Hana had seen him disappear for days when they were still dating back on Earth, she didn't think much of it as dungeons existed and Eshwar seemed quite rich, due to which she concluded that he was clearing dungeons for a living, only now did she began to connect the dots, with another peculiarly standing out dot, named White Swan!

She had noticed that whenever Eshwar disappeared, White Swan made his presence know, she had thought that it was a coincidence, which was the reason she had been ignoring that.

'This..... Why didn't it dawn upon me when he revealed himself to the entirely of the Earth that he was White Swan?' Of course, she, together, with the very few that Eshwar kept alive, knew that he was White Swan, but until today, the fact that Eshwar was White Swan hadn't registered in her mind because at the time when he revealed his identity, the situation didn't really allow them to understand what was happening, and since she hadn't pondered on Eshwar's identity till now, she wasn't able to connect the remaining dots in the other ignored dots, which led to the formation of an incomplete picture about Eshwar in her consciousness. Which was a Eshwar's, Eshwar-like image instilled in her consciousness before.

Now, another Eshwar's picture formed in her consciousness....

It was that of a demon's, or so she felt.

Eshwar's, Eshwar-like image, but his soft, playful gaze from before was now visible in a glare.

A glare that seemed to look down at each and every existence in the world, or so it felt like to her, but if she broadened her view of the worlds, then his glare felt to be looking down upon every existence and the universe itself.

That image of his made her tremble uncontrollably while she also felt that somehow, for whatever reason, that image fit perfectly with Eshwar. She'll accept the fact that she doesn't know about him completely, she'll even accept that Eshwar was a anti-hero like being in her mind, but she couldn't and wouldn't accept the fact that he was reason that THAT many were dying.

At the same time, she also wouldn't accept the glaring fact which she knew in her consciousness, that was roaring at her that he, Eshwar, was the one that killed those around her, and he was also the reason that the time limit got activated.

Her phoenix trait that had merged entirely with her existence was sending tremors of negative emotions and thoughts, each and every one of which were against Eshwar.

'..... Eshwar....' She called out inwardly, because she believed that he would be looking and listening to her, though she couldn't speak through telepathy in such long distances like Eshwar, she believed that if she called out for him, he would respond.

Now,

She merely wanted an yes or a no from Eshwar, nothing more, nothing less. She wanted to know whether her were thoughts were true or not, and her belief didn't go unnoticed,

[You can visit me.] Eshwar's lazy yet hypnotic voice sounded in her consciousness, which shuddered in response as her agathokakological consciousness began to reject everything that involved Eshwar.

[Tell me when you are ready, I'll summon you.] Eshwar said and cut off the telepathic link between them, only after that could Hana stop trembling as she responded and assured those around her that nothing was wrong and she was alright.

The decision she would be making would influence everything around her, so she couldn't hesitate nor could she have other thoughts distracting her, and currently, even if her emotions are being masked,

The concerns she was receiving were nothing but merely distractions that could potentially force her to procrastinate her decision.

'No, please invite me.....' She muttered in her mind after assuring them—Katline, Grace, Neal, Reynolds, Hannah, Louie, Core, and Arngrim—that she had somewhere to go, and

Seo Hana disappeared.
