Villain of my own novel

"Hmm..." I stared at four system notification windows in a slightly puzzled expression.

That cursed trait was slowly fading away, as what looked like (cursed) had now faded to look like (curs....), although the reason for this was still a mystery to me. And then, my human hunter trait, whose condition previously had started from (0/20) instead of (0/10), for whatever reason, was now at (246/300). There should be no problem at all, and there wasn't any, but what I couldn't understand was that it would increase by "1" after every 10 kills, and it continued to increase until it reached "19," and then the condition for another stat increase by "1" abruptly increased by a hundred, and the condition for another increase was now turned into "???/300."

For example, the trait's condition would normally increase by 10, making the condition something like "???/210," but now! Now, as soon as the condition hit "???/200," it instantly rose to "???/300."

And finally free stat points, whose value, just like those (+19) from my human hunter trait, is still unknown. I can easily understand the meaning of stat points, but...

"Grraaa!!! I don't know!! F**k this! I don't care!" I ruffled the sides of my blood-soaked hair roughly in irritation.

I can feel the changes in my body caused by the 1 stat increase in the original system's 'ranked stats,' but I don't feel any changes from the (+19) stats next to them; perhaps this is because I've grown accustomed to them, but still... I don't know their exact value like I do about the others.

"Haa..." I sighed and closed the system windows before calling out 'my' system.

'Control.' I muttered in my mind and a glitched system window popped up.

'Minimize to 'thoughts,' target Vinny.'

|Thoughts: Ah... maybe..... I should have listened to them and not send Katline to the war against the Demon King. Yes, I am dumb to have sent her to the war, I should have listened to the others.

If I listened to them, then I wouldn't have lost my friends nor my family, who became important to me as more time past and I let go of my resentment towards them.....

Right.... I simply haven't realized it yet, now I get it.... everything is because of me. This is all because I'm weak.|

'Minimize to 'thoughts,' target Katline.' I muttered in my mind, since I knew Vinny was currently in Katline's house.

====

|Thoughts: H-Help!|

====

"Huh?" I frowned as soon as I read her thoughts. There was nothing else; her entire mind seemed to have blanked out.

"Heh." I chuckled as soon as a crazy theory formed in my mind: Katline's fear and Vinny's daze, and finally both of them in a single home, who would Katline be scared of? Heh, of course.

"Let's get out of here, for now." I said to Pyre and Erebus, who were still bickering, but now Erebus had slumped on my head while Pyre had slumped on Erebus's head.

"Hahaha." I chuckled at them before grinning widely.please visit panda-:)ɴᴏᴠᴇ1.co)m

'Since the opportunity presented itself to me I should not let go of it, should I....'

SWISH

I vanished from where I sat, in the middle of the pit formed by the monster corpses.

*

I arrived at Sector Five after cleaning myself with fire and water magic before leaving the gate; I burned everything 'unwanted' on my body and washed away everything until I wasn't reeking of monster's blood anymore, and I rushed towards Sector Five soon after.

And it was quite a sight to behold, to be honest. Vinny walked out of the apartment as soon as I neared it, with a guilty expression on his face. I am not exaggerating when I say that he would have walked together with the police, if they had arrested him at the moment he walked out of the apartment. The amount of guilt on his face was something else, and goddamn, it was a great sight to see.

That wasn't all; as soon as I entered Katline's apartment, I found Katline passed out in the middle of the living room with the front part of her top ripped off.

'This!'

"..... should I became a soothsayer?" I scratched my chin and pondered very seriously, since I had expected something like this to happen.

'Haven't I been meeting too many perverts like this recently.....'

TAP

"Hm?" Erebus tapped on my forehead and when I looked up at him, he pointed at Katline.

"Argh...Haa..haa...argh...no...haa..." Katline breathed heavily and started to claw at her own body. She roughly stretched her marked wrists until they bled; the same went for her triceps, neck, and chest. I winced at the sight.

"I didn't ....think it would be this bad." I grinned widely and approached her, lifted her up, and walked towards 'her room,' which I had written in the original story, and laid her on the bed.

'I'm feeling quite hungry.... let's go and see what she has.' I thought and walked out of the room after covering her body with a blanket, and of course, it was done 'with care.'

*

'She woke up.' I noticed Katline get off of the bed and take out her bow and arrow while cooking food for two in a wok. I tasted the food, which most likely Katline had cooked, and it... tasted bland. Maybe it was because I like foods with strong flavours? But still!! it tasted bland.

And for the next few minutes, I continued to cook food while keeping an eye out for Katline, who then jumped out of the wall with her mana-infused arrow aimed at me. I didn't move and maintained eye contact with Katline, who stiffened as soon as she saw me.

I continued to cook as she stood dazed while staring at me; her eyes were shaking. I can't completely understand how she is feeling now; maybe I never will, but the state she was in was a bit... concerning. This was a kind of development that I hadn't ever prepared her for while writing her story; though this situation wasn't something that could be prepared for, her state was far worse than I expected it to be.

'Vinny, Vinny, Vinny.... I can't believe he had become so messed up.... Well, that's what's bringing you closer to your demise.' I chuckled inwardly.

After I finished cooking the food, I plated it for two on a single plate and walked out of the kitchen with the plate in my hands before placing it on the couch. I walked towards the dazed Katline, patted her on her shoulders, and hugged her to 'console' her while my lips twitched before curling up into a wide grin behind her back.
