"Victor, you're so famous!" came the sound of a woman's angry scolding from the study.
A beautiful woman with short black hair was holding a newspaper, pointing at the portrait on it that had been photographed by a magic guide stone, and raging.
"Are you trying to disgrace the family name 'Klevena'?"
Snap!
The newspaper was flung at the man's face. With an expressionless face, he removed the newspaper. The obsidian bright eyes quietly scanned the contents of the newspaper.
The man in the newspaper had proper features, and even on this kind of paper that could only print black and white images, one could see that the man was excessively handsome. This was already a face that was enough to impress thousands of young girls. But that didn't include the girl in front of the man.
The man moved as if he was inviting the girl, but the girl in the picture rejected him with a smile on her face. In the smile, there seemed to be a bit of dislike.
Bang!
A sound pulled his thoughts back. The woman in front of him - Leah Klevena - slammed the table heavily. "Calling you to represent the family to attend a dinner party, you actually confessed to the duke's daughter in public at the party!? She's still a minor! Are you crazy?"
Yes, the newspaper, it was written.
[Shocked! Viscount Clevena actually did such a thing at the Duke's daughter's dinner party!"]
It had to be said that this newspaper knew how to get attention. If he himself had seen this kind of headline, he was afraid that he would have spent a few coins to buy one as a pastime for tea time. Unfortunately, the object of amusement in this newspaper headline was none other than himself. Victor Klevena.
He looked at the mirror that sat on his desk, reflecting a portrait that looked exactly like the handsome man in the newspaper. But as a traveling party who had just crossed over today and didn't even have the slightest memory of it. Victor did not want to take the blame.
Though, in the face of the woman in front of him's rage, he could do nothing but be silent. A mentally ill person killed someone and said that they killed someone because they were mentally unbalanced, so they could avoid the death penalty? It really can. Provided you had such a certificate. Victor didn't. All he could do was scowl as he listened to the other man's insults.
But this seemingly left-ear in, right-ear out look seemed to be more likely to raise the other party's anger level. In the end, the other party ended the one-sided insults with the words, "I'm so mad that I actually thought you could listen to me".
Victor was also able to organize as much information as he could during the tens of minutes of insults. After a series of arrangements in the study, as well as the appearance of the short-haired beauty in front of him, all of them without exception could be compared 100% to a game he played in his previous life.
It was an adventure MMORPG, or "massively multiplayer online role-playing game". In this world of swords and magic, players could make up their own faces, play as different races, experience different professions, and play through various plots and challenges.
And his profession. It's a substitute trainer. This game also requires leveling, if not kryptonite players, but also need to liver out a variety of supplies and materials. If a player didn't want to kryptonite, but didn't have the extra time to get the levels and materials, at that time, a substitute trainer would be needed.
At the same time, some PVP (player vs player) qualifying tournaments, players need to rise with their own strength does not match the segment, also need the help of the substitute coach. He was in this line of work in his previous life, and he was a little famous in the vicarious coaching circle.
And just yesterday, he didn't eat, didn't sleep, and used seven days to finally finish his seventeenth list for the rest of the month. Just ready to settle the bill. Pop, sudden death. His crossing over was just so plain and simple.
Returning to the main topic, the character he is now traveling through, is named [Victor Klevena].
The status was Viscount.
In a country like the Kingdom of Calencia, where power was distributed through a title system, Victor's viscount status was more of a status symbol.
Aside from having a territory, there weren't many other privileges. In the eyes of commoners, Victor was seen as a powerful big shot.
But... messing with the daughter of a duke? A viscount couldn't compare to a duke.
"Worthy of being a villainous boss, the opening is hellishly difficult," Victor muttered under his breath.
Unlawfully taken from Royal Road, this story should be reported if seen on Amazon.
"What did you say?" Leah's voice raised a few degrees, puzzled and expressing her dissatisfaction with his indifferent attitude. This caused Victor to naturally set his gaze on his nominal sister, Leah Klevena.
In the game, she was Victor Klevena's younger sister. Due to her extremely high attractiveness, she was one of the few female characters in the game that players chased after and called "wife". Leah's popularity was also due to the fact that she had a "villainous brother".
Victor Klevena was a boss character who was defeated by players in the early and middle stages of the game.
Due to his actions, the kingdom of Calencia was turned upside down. The current queen issued a mission to seek help from players to defeat Victor Klevena.
The villain character ended up being inexplicably popular, with various labels such as [High Attack and High Speed Difficult to Defeat], [High Attractiveness], [Scum Mage], and so on.
Overall, traveling into a game he was familiar with should have been a happy thing. But he wasn't in too good a mood.
Because...
Victor had many enemies. It could be because he was too prominent, or it could be the malice of the plot plan towards male characters.
In the game, any NPC that the player encountered could have a grudge against Victor. Maybe it was a teacher at the magic academy, an elder in the village, or even a dog on the side of the road that Victor had kicked.
Even more outrageously, even a series of main characters had tried to kill him. These included Victor's fiancée, Victor's sister, and the Duke's daughter. This was also the origin of Victor's title, [Scum Mage].
There were only a few high-value famous female characters, and Victor himself had messed with half of them. Being able to survive until now was called Victor's skillful means.
And now, instead of the original Victor, he became the current Victor...
The accumulated hatred alone from the original body was enough for him to drink a pot of water.
"I also don't know what time it is now," Victor muttered.
After Leah's earlier inquiry, he didn't mutter this time. It was just a slight thought in his mind. And as soon as Victor pondered so much, it made Leah in front of him feel that he was deliberately not speaking to humiliate her. The anger value was immediately pulled full.
"Enough! Victor, do you not have the slightest idea what kind of situation you're in!" She huffed and pulled out a contract from the designer handbag she carried and flung it on the desk.
"If I hadn't used my connections to contact the academy and have them immediately draw up a professorial title for you, the Duke's private soldiers would have already arrived at the entrance of your mansion! But you were sitting leisurely in your study, drinking coffee and reading a book! Now that it's come to this, you don't even want to say a word of thanks!"
"Thanks."
"I hate you like... eh?" Leah's words trailed off slightly and she blinked, forgetting how to even vent her anger.
Victor sat back in his seat and took the contract, reading it while saying, "Thank you for taking care of this for me, next time I'm out there, I'll watch what I say."
Seemingly not adjusting to a sudden thank you from her infamous brother, one of Leah's fingers restlessly wrapped around the ends of her hair. The mood was slightly mixed.
"Anyway, I only did all of this because I didn't want to bring shame to the family, and also, I can only fix it for a moment, on the Duke's side, it's up to you to apologize in person. In addition, not only do you need to thank me, first think about how to deal with Miss Gwen."
"Gwen Delin?"
"Yes. Naturally, my nomination alone won't be able to get the academy side to agree, so I've asked Miss Gwen."
Speaking of this, Leah's eyes went a few degrees colder, looking at Victor as if he was looking at a bug. "Having a fiancée, yet you still think of dabbling."
"Not bad for you, Mr. Victor." Victor took it upon himself to filter the latter sentence.
"I don't know if you misunderstood something, but I'll give her my thanks."
In the back of his mind, he remembered the character——Gwen Delin.
Guardian of the northern border knight family's second daughter, and in the game's plot, Victor's fiancée.
She was a true Knight of Justice, destined to stand against villainous Mages. In the game, although this justice-filled knight is Victor's fiancée, the two are never on the same side. Including the final crusade against Victor, it was Gwen who arrived and ended Victor's life with a single shot.
The relationship between these two is more like a forced family marriage, with no semblance of affection.
The fact that Gwen stabbed Victor to death with her own hands seems to sidestep the players' suspicions.
Nay Dog Planning never mentioned the prequel between these characters, and until the end, the relationship between them was never confirmed.
"Another dangerous character has been added." Sighing slightly inwardly, Victor found life very difficult.
Gwen Delin was no small character.
As the strongest knight in the Kingdom of Calencia, even in the late stage of the game during the period of divine and demonic chaos, her combat power was still amazingly strong.
In the late stages of the game, Gwen Delin would even become a boss that players would have to face, and during that period of time, the toughness of the Great Knight Gwen was clearly engraved in the hearts of every gamer.
With regards to her combat power, Victor had a clear perception. This woman, absolutely cannot be messed with. Otherwise, he was truly going to die. Although he had crossed over, it seemed that he didn't have any golden fingers that he could use right now.
As if she could see that Victor was a bit defeated, Leah was inexplicably a bit pleased in her heart. She thought it was the other party's pride that didn't allow others to help, but in reality, Victor was just thinking about how exactly to defend himself in this certain-death ending.
"Heh, there are still some things to take care of over at the territory, so I'm going to head back," Leah let out a cold laugh, picked up her satchel, and planned to leave.
"Oh right," as she was about to leave, Leah turned back and glanced at Victor with a contemptuous look.
"To actually keep a crow, or a crow with only one eye as a pet. Your aesthetics are really as bad as before."
Bang!
The door of the study was slammed shut. The maid's voice also came from outside the door.
"Miss Leah, do we need to prepare a carriage for you?"
But at this moment, Victor's thoughts could not focus on the departing Leah. He twisted his head and saw a mass of inky black creatures in the corner of the desk. It looked like a crow, but slightly larger than a raven. And it was just as Leah had said. It, had only one eye.
That eye was as if it was full of humanity, and it dribbled around. Finally, one of its eyes met Victor's eyes. And then, it revealed a humanized smile.
"Hello, I am the Evil God - Habika."
