章節 60: A good villain

Quit squirming around that much, after I only put a mere 5 hairs into your right foot. Moving around that much only creates a lot more unnecessary action from my side. As a consequence, even more, unnecessary pain for you. No, wiggling with your toes does not help either. Trying to kick me is also not helpful.

You do not have to the roll with your eyes as I am talking to you as well. I am fully aware that the current procedure is not to your liking, but in order to verify the similarity between your kind and my species, this has to be tested thoroughly.

I do not care whether you mock me by making strange gestures with your face, but please while you do stay still. Otherwise, I will be forced to nail your feet to the ground as well.

See, standing still is not that hard if the argument is compelling enough.

I have to make sure that I hit every single bone and not miss a single one. You might ask yourself, although I am sure that you are not, how I can be sure where one bone ends and the next one begins.

A possible answer would be that I already knew the general bone structure and only have to confirm their existence. But that would be a big fat lie, I am taking advantage of your joints and poke my needle hair in those areas.

I could confirm the existence of 26 bones, that seems to be the same number of bones that the average human has. No notable kind of difference here, if both have the same physique and the nearly the same kind of anatomy, is it possible that magic works like some sort of accelerator for evolution?

If it developed in accordance with the Gods, does that mean that their current form is the optimal vessel for mana or magic? If so why is it similar to the human body, which had absolutely no contact with magic outside the realm of fiction. The very core of my being is the polar opposite to magic, that is why I find it so hard to compare those two.

While my whole being is something special, I hardly doubt that something like this has happened already and did not leave any kind of trail in this world. While the technological standard shows similarities to our human society, it is very different. Their advancement is based on magic as an energy source, while humanity has used everything available.

I am quite intrigued, even after I told you that you lost due to all the information I could get on you, you still refuse to ask or talk to me and gather more information. Are my thoughts too preposterous to you? Do you doubt the validity of them? Or are you too stubborn to acknowledge my words?

" Do you really have to ask such a stupid question? Every single person here knows this world was created by the Gods, with their infinite wisdom. So your "story" is nothing more than a stupid fabrication, in order to create a mystery surrounding yourself. Throwing unknown words around to make it sound credible."

" The truth is you are just a joke, created by the developers to gather some cheap attention. The whole myth surrounding is just a player that got special rights and now tries to gather fame by fighting in an unseen manner. Strengthening your body with mana is not something new but your unhonorable fighting style is surely fitting for your role as a villain."

So as a villain, what would you do next to generate as much attention as possible? Should the maiden be tortured and toyed with? Should the maiden suffer unimaginable horror that you would not even wish upon your biggest enemy? Should the maiden be set free to live happily ever after?

" A good villain always fights the enemy and then thoroughly crushes them, when they are at their mightiest, that is what makes a good villain"

I see, so you want to have a rematch and put everything on the line?

" Of course, after all, I am the hero this story needs."

Then I have to disappoint you, this villain is not going to act like a stereotypical dumbass and ruin everything he has done so far. No, I am here to conduct some research on your anatomy and a true villain would not give away his plans so early. So let us continue, but this time I am going to hurry up a bit, in order to not waste any more time on useless rambling.

Since you are so adamant on ignoring my explanations I am going to stop them. I am just going to state the absolutely necessary details, I hope you are happy.

Even though you have been screaming during the whole ordeal, we are finally done with that part and the result is the same amount of bones as the average human.

I am truly sorry, I did not know that there was no bone behind your eyes, I should have come to that conclusion earlier instead of trying over and over again to find it. There are still a lot of things I do have to learn please do not get angry with me about that. Furthermore, I should not have pushed the hairs so deep that I failed to get them out. I should not have tried to test out the same spot several times afterwards as well. That was a big negligence from my side. I hope you find it in yourself to forgive me.

After this little expenditure on bones and joints, let us come to this event's main attraction, the world of your nerves. You will learn things about your body you never thought you would. Isn't it exciting?

I know you are so excited that you are not even capable of cheering anymore.

But fret not I have got every pleasure-seeking masochist just like yourself covered. My all-inclusive package contains everything that makes your heart ache in anticipation. Even Pinhead will be jealous after seeing you in the end.

This process is called Acupuncture and is mainly used as some sort of pain relief for the patient, though it claims to have a plethora of benefits as well. It targets different spots all over your body. While scientists still argue, whether there is something more to it or its just a placebo effect, there is no denying that it can help.

Still, I am not an all-knowing entity, so I have absolutely no idea what kind of effect which nerve might have, so that means I will have to guess a lot of things that you are feeling. Because your current constitution does not look promising enough, to actually talk to me via telepathy.

That just means that I am forced to repeat this process several times to see what kind of change is caused. There is no need for a scientific approach when you can learn by doing. And if at first, you do not succeed try and try again.

Am I doing this correct? Does a good villain act like this? You have to tell me, otherwise, I will lose my job. Do not be that cruel and ignore me, I am just doing what I was told to do.

How could I forget about the backstory, a good villain needs something like that.

Born as a lowly human, he would never amount to anything in his life. Unfit to wield magic he was doomed to be laughed at and ridiculed. Carved in his forehead was a mark of shame. Under this ill-willed fate, he decided to forsake his humanity and became a monster in order to fight, the people who once laughed at him.

No, that is not deep enough we need even more cliche, even more drama.

He was born as a pathetic creature known as a human being, he was forced to a life full of misery and sadness. Scorn and disgrace were his only companions. The words carved in his forehead would forever remind him about his inability. He would do anything to fight against this world, to prove those people, who mistreated him wrong. Even if that meant becoming a monster.

That sounds good, but I guess we still can fit a bit of drama in there.

He came to this world as an abomination. This abomination had many names, filth, scum or human. Such a creature would waste its life being condemned to suffer for all its pitiful life. The only fate such a hideous entity deserves is to live every day in a never-ending cycle of disdain and loathing. The words carved on his forehead, were for everyone to see and bear witness to his degrading nonexistent capabilities. He vowed to sacrifice everything including himself, just to fight against this unequal world. Turning into a filthy monster, was his only option left if he ever wanted to wash away all the sins connected to his very existence.

Now that sounds like a compelling backstory. Now we just need to add some really tear-jerking information, about how cruel his fate is.

Legends have foretold the story of a boy, who is so ugly that even his parents shunned him directly after his birth. Even the Gods in their infinite wisdom could not fathom how something so hideous could exist. Everyone that laid eyes on him had the urge to end their own lives on the spot, only their deep-rooted faith left them with a shred of sanity. Only the fiercest and mightiest warriors had the courage to face this calamity. Coming face to face with this deformity, they were forced to cleanse the affront to the Gods. The only option to redeem him was to make him feel horrendous pain and unimaginable horror. That was the only path that would lead to redemption.

Now that we have his sad backstory, we need to define his characteristics and motivation.

He is a psychopathic maniac, whose sense of right or wrong warped due to the misfortune he encountered. His primary goal of being acknowledged has already faded and left him with a twisted worldview. Since he turned into a monster, it was not about strong or weak anymore. The system itself had to be torn apart. He had to ensure that he would be the only case of such a fate and anything standing in his way would have to fall as well.

Even though he had turned into a monster, he is still haunted by his past and all his insecurities. He was born into a world he did not fully understand. He did not comprehend why everyone treated him like dirt. Surely there must be a reason to that, maybe he was at fault, maybe he did something so horrific that he did not deserve any other treatment. But he was just a human baby, how much sin could he have accumulated?

The only logical conclusion in his mind was that the System itself must be wrong, especially when every person involved thought to be in the right. So he decided to commit fully to being a monster and become something that is able to shake the very core of this rotten world.

Now that makes me a good villain, right?

So now it is your turn, the hero of this story, that is going to best the menace and bring peace to this world, after freeing it from all evil. The hero needs to be a role model, a paragon to whom everyone looks up to. The hero will always prevail in the end, because the hero is destined for greatness. No matter what obstacles, no matter what kind of challenge, the hero will overcome them all.

That is your destiny and right at this moment, we have reached the turning point of the story. The hero lost the fight against the arch-nemesis. Normally you would have been saved by someone else. So I am forced to change the script a bit, to save the story.

Her archnemesis explained his devious plan to the hero, he wanted to plunge the world into chaos. The hero tried her best to stop him, but it was to no avail she was far too weak. The monster injected something into, he was reassured that she would die under that excruciating pain, but far did he knew, that the hero would survive and even come out way stronger.

I have to admit I really like your spirit, you did not even cry once during the whole session. After I have covered every inch of your body with my sharp hair you did not even twitch. I will honour my promise, you deserve it.

And she is unresponsive. Here I was putting in so much effort to create a backstory for me and she loses her conciousness right in the middle of it. Right until now I always thought, that players could not lose their consciousness, so maybe she put herself in that state on her own. She may be in a coma or braindead, as well but I hardly doubt that.

So now its time for the real part of this experiment lets see what kind of wonders that slime can work.
