I Should Be The Villain, Right? - Chapter 57
When the first day of examination finally begin, my mood become worst and worst as I been looked down by others. The main reason why I become the center of that disgusting sight is I, as the participant belongs to the lowest ranked group of the newbie cultivators. The participants divided into groups, from the best rank, the S ranked, until the lowest one, the F ranked like me. There quite less people here, even far more fewer that the top S ranked group. Even the S ranked divided by three groups, but there only a single F group. Not surprise, as the main culprit of this case are because of the quitters. As you expected, most of the participants with this rank assessment call it quit before the test, just after registering at the administration office. They will face mockery from the officials there, even become the laughing clown, in that damn place. Those [email protected] receptionist words still sounded in my mind, and make me wanted to kill them later on. Well, not like they actually wrong to advise me. My actual talent is the worst and nightmare for a cultivators. Even my father feeling down after knowing it, but thanks to my mother and grandfather, I grew up as a great and ‘kind’ person. Still, I will kill the receptionist before I return home after finishing my cultivation training here.
Because of my wrath, I accidentally destroyed the grading stone in my first test, thanks to my real spiritual armor, the ‘clear sky’ bell. The clear sky bell seemingly more active in this world, the lower dimension, and helping me without any of my intentions. The artifacts of spiritual armor belongs to the enemy of Tommy, who are the legendary Iron Might in the past. The clear sky bell is the artifacts that require the user to master seven elements in order to release the maximum potential of this powerful things. The old user is the mono elemental master, the fire, failed to handle the armor well, cost his life because of it. Although I didn’t have any compatibility of the elements, but thanks to my new gauntlet, I have placed seven crystals that will become the medium to master all elements. Right now, I can use the seven elements, although just a little bit of it, but enough to activate the artifact. Just for additional facts, these crystals will be the house of my contracted elemental fairies, in the future.
Back to current events, it’s seem that I become the third person destroying the grading stone. The first person is the hero who his mother become my lover. The second one from the higher dimension, so I expected that he is the rare genius or the hero like the first fellow. The test failed all the F ranked group except me, so I moved to the fifth E ranked group, that become the last placed after the F group disbanded, in the second test. There’s no more mockery or abuse sight targeting me, as I become the top three pupil as for the results on the first test. Although some might think that I got myself lucky but they didn’t voiced out their dissatisfied feelings or doing something like bullying me, afraid that those action might bite them back!
The second test actually has a hidden reward, if you managed to climb the highest floor. Tommy on his days in this lower dimension, managed to climb the highest floor on his 30th tryout, and received the map of the Fairy Land, Stadthuys. But, I, who climb the highest floor in my first try, received a special map, the Throne of Fairy, A’Famosa ad the reward. Moreover, I am the only person who managed to get this hidden reward! Why I targeting this map? Like I mentioned earlier, I wanted to make a contract with the fairy as my medium to use the elements of cultivation. Tommy used to travel to the Fairy Land Stadthuys and managed to make a contract with lower ranked Earth fairy. That’s why he managed to learn the highest Earth element cultivation with Jarnis, the high elf that become the goddess of Earth, which now will become the Goddess of Bavalotia in the future. Although he also like me, without any compatible in the elements, with the help of the contracted fairy, he managed to learn the highest rank cultivation technique.
My success of the solely person who managed the climb the highest floor become hot news and also receive the scowl from other participants. Why? With my success climbing the 30th floor, the minimum requirement to pass the test increased from the average yearly 10th floor to this year 15th floor. The other top three who excel in first exam didn’t managed to finish their climb. By the way, most pupils here didn’t care much of repeating the second test after they became much prominent in the cultivation due of the test nature itself. Much powerful person in cultivation, the more harder the test become. That’s why when Tommy wasted his time trying to finish the climb, he been labelled as insane and maniac student.
There are no break or day off after the second test as we continue the third one right away. I moved to another group, but still E ranked one, that actually is the only group now. The E rank groups that supposedly have 5 now become one, thanks to the second test that failed most of them. Even group B, C and D been affected by the elimination, and cut the quantities of participant. The last test quite easy, and I didn’t even trying for this one. As you guess, thanks to my real spiritual armor, it’s easy as ABC. Clear Sky bell is the most powerful defensive artifacts, not only protected the body, but also my mind. The torture mind attacks in the dark cave do nothing to me at all. I enjoyed my stay there and ended up as the last person who exit the place. There are no more failure or kick out pupils and that’s concluded the participants that manage to become the students in this place. While waiting in the dark cave, I teleported Ximena, my right hand and ex-duke in demon territory in the past to my side, and having quickie.
After the test ended, all the passer will given the time to pick their school of cultivation. There’s too many school to be chosen by the qualified students, but the high achievers will be scouted straight away by the school itself. But, as for me, not even one offer comes from the scout of the schools, even with my results, as the best student in the examination. Nah, I don’t give a shit about that. I already determined the school myself, and will register there without second thought. I wanted to meet my ‘stepson’, the hero, and greet him. Of course, I won’t tell him anything about his mother, but I wanted to know his merry girlfriends, while on it. But, as a hero, that fellow already meet his encounter with the mob, which is the small villain. Well, the person that been said is one of the best newcomer of this year, so the right way to describe him is the the ‘field boss’ like RPG. By the way, I describe myself as hidden boss of the villain, and the last boss still unknown to me.
“Hey kids, how dare you show off in front of me….” The person who is the villain hail from the Chow royalty member in the Chow planet of higher dimension, who have some history with my family. The punk showing his hostile to the hero kid, ignoring his surroundings.
“Nope, that not my intention…” The hero with his naive face, reply to him. His innocence rubbing the face of the Chow kid. He then pronounced his challenge to the hero.
“Let’s have duel, shitty kid….”
“No, I don’t want to have any duel, sir….” The hero didn’t show any motivation to accept his challenge, raise his hand.
“Coward….” That shitty brat laughed, bringing the smile to my face.
“Hey, why don’t you pick your own size?” I enter the conversation, selling the fight to my fellow villain. I didn’t done it for that hero brat, just to show my concern for my stepson, although the person himself unaware of the fact. Huh, the same age stepson huh?
“Well, well… What we have here… A talent-less person with surprisingly high ability…. A grandson of failure person, a Wu family huh?” As expected, that fellow know about me. The reason why my grandfather forced to descend from higher dimension because of the Chow royalty. Before my grandfather enter the secluded cultivation, he warned me to be careful with the Chow royalty. They have quite influence and army power, feared by the small planets in the higher dimension. As for the bigger planets, most of the superpowers one have been bribed by the Chow royalty in order to maintain their power. I remember exactly how the Aqua Port Kingdom, which is my cousin real husband (in paper), who been NTR’ed by me, his kingdom used the same way in order to become one of prominent country.
“Wu? Wu Tian?” The hero seems shocked when he aware about me, making appearance here. He become speechless, like encountered his beloved superstar or something, didn’t continue his sentence after that.
“You regret later after insulting my grandfather…” The kill intent filling the atmosphere around me, challenging him into the death fight.
“Haaa….. You can try, if you dare!” The Chow brat laughing like the insane person, challenge me to duel.
“Wait you two!” The officials nearby stopped us from beginning our fight.
“Don’t stop us…” Chow brat sending his warning to those officials.
“Like I give a shit about it!” Said the leader look like person, scolding the Chow brat. They asked us to change our venue, to the duel stage that not far from our spot. Our duel will become the exhibition for all pupils here, thus the crowd in the watching area are flooding the place.
“It’s looking good for me, as I can repeat what my father done to your grandfather…..” That brat provoking me with those sentence, after taking his place at the stage.
“The weakest dog bark loudest, thus should I said more, little doggie?” I reply with provocation, face him from opposite at the stage.
“You courting death, you shalt have it! The loser is you, and you will die like a dog, mongrel!” That shitty Chow brat screaming out his wrath, but I didn’t reply as the referee of our duel making his appearance at the stage. Surprisingly, this fight has been officiated by the organizer of the examination place. I guess, they doing some gambling too, to raise their fund.
“Come forward both of you! Remember, this fight will not been responsible by us, but solely on both of you. If you two agree, we can give you the permission!” After the words from the referee, we both nodded our head, as the sign of agreement.
“So be it. You two can start now, en garde!!!!”
“Storm fist!” He launch his punch directly to my body. It’s make me fly from impact, but the attack didn’t stop there.
“!” A kick connected to my back change my flying direction to opposite direction, but another kick come from my left side.
“Thunder kick, unlimited!” Although the attack is quite powerful, but the attack itself is only the mortal martial arts, not the cultivation techniques. So those attacks didn’t harm me much, only scratch my pride. I can’t respond any of his attack due of his level, already 42, while I only level one. But due our base stats much differ, with mine like the monstrous one compare to him, he didn’t managed to hurt me at all.
“Tai chi flows!” I try to counter his attacks, but realize that my ignorance of the martial arts training for a while before of the creation of artificial spiritual armor, weakened my abilities and physical a great length. I didn’t want to use my armor suit as I now going to train my cultivation techniques, making me much weaker than ever. The counterattack didn’t happen, and the continuous attack of my opponent continued without mercy.
“Tsunami palm!” His palm planted right on my c.h.e.s.t, leading me crashed into the floor of the stage. I realized that this is my first defeat, after been invisible for a whole my entire life (7 years btw).
“Clear sky bell; first resonance…..” As I practically admit my defeat in my mind, I activate my real spiritual armor basic stance, as to counter Chow finishing blow, “Earthquake Punch!”
As the result, Chow blasted away from my location and flew about 100 meters away before crashing the wall with great impact. He became gravely injured, but managed to keep his life. The audiences full of cheering now absent from any noise for a moment before changing the loud voice of their surprise. I, the untalented person has proved that even the ordinary people can climb the highest peak of mountain because of the hardworking and unwavering efforts. Well, not for me actually….. But who care, the sentences sound like motivational quotes and look cool.
After the duel ended up with my victory, suddenly a group of people began to flood around me, asking me to join their school. These [email protected] flies and dogs don’t have any shame after ignoring me, now begging for my attention. I ignore them and making my move to the school of my target.
