Crossing:Believers of the Evil One

Chapter 1: 01.A hellish start



"Victor, you are so famous!"

From the study, a woman's angry voice came.

A beautiful woman with short black hair was holding a newspaper, pointing at the portrait on it that was topographed by a magic guide stone and raging.

"Are you trying to disgrace the family name 'Clevena'!"

Snap!

The newspaper was flung in the man's face.

With an expressionless face, he removed the newspaper.

The obsidian bright pupils 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 Clevena - 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 child! Are you crazy?"

Yes, what was written in the newspaper, was written.

[Shocked! Viscount Clevena actually did such a thing at the Duke's daughter's dinner party!"]

This headline was appealing enough!

If he himself had seen this kind of headline, he was afraid that he would have spent a few coins to buy a copy of it 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 traveler who had just crossed over today and didn't even have the slightest memory of it.

Victor didn't 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 left-ear-in, right-ear-out look seemed to be more likely to raise the other party's anger.

In the end, the other party ended the one-sided insults with the words, "I'm really crazy to think that you can 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 setups in the study, and the appearance of the short-haired beauty in front of him, all of them were 100% comparable to a game he had played in his previous life.

It was an adventure game, a "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 you are not a 'rich' player, you need to spend a lot of time to find out a variety of supplies and materials.

If a player didn't want to spend money, but didn't have the extra time to get levels and materials, that's when a substitute trainer was needed.

At the same time, some of the confrontation qualifying matches, players need to rise to a segment that doesn't match their strength, they also need the help of a surrogate trainer.

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.

Hell, sudden death.

His crossing over was just so plain and simple.

Returning to the main topic, the character he was now crossing over was named [Victor Klevena].

The status was Viscount.

In a country like the Kingdom of Calencia, where the position of power was distributed by a title system, this Viscount of his was more of a status symbol.

Aside from having a territory, there weren't many other privileges.

In the eyes of the commoners, Victor was rightfully a powerful big shot.

But ... messing with the daughter of a duke?

A viscount's status couldn't be compared to a duke.

"Worthy of being a villainous boss, the opening is hellish difficulty."

Victor muttered under his breath.

"What did you say?"

Leah's voice raised a few degrees, as if she was 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 having an extremely high face value, she was also one of the few female characters in the game that players chased after their asses and called them 'wife'.

Leah's popularity is also due to the fact that she has a "villainous brother".

Victor Klevena is a boss character who is crushed by the players in the first and middle stages of the game.

Due to Victor Klevena's actions, the kingdom of Calenciawas turned upside down.

The current Queen issued a mission to seek help from the players to crush Victor Klevena.

The villain character, in the end, also ended up being inexplicably popular with a variety of labels such as [High Attack and High Speed Difficult to Defeat], [High Face Value], [Scum Mage] and so on beside him.

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's enemies, were really many.

It could be because the trees are so big, or it could be the plot plan's malice towards the dudes.

Anyone the player met in the game could have a grudge against Victor.

Maybe it's a teacher at the magic academy, an older man in the village.

Even a dog on the side of the road could have been kicked by Victor.

Even more outrageously, even a series of mainline characters had tried to kill him.

These include Victor's fiancée, Victor's sister, 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 he now, instead of the original Victor, became the current Victor ...

The hate value accumulated by the original body alone was enough to make him drink a pot of water.

''I also don't know what time it is now.''

After Leah's earlier inquiry, he didn't mutter out this time.

It was just a slight thought in his mind.

And Victor's sudden pause then made the Leah in front of him think that he was deliberately not speaking to humiliate her again.

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 ... what?"

Leah's words suddenly stopped 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, and 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 make the academy side 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 worm.

"Having a fiancée, yet still thinking 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.

The second daughter of the knight family guarding the northern border, and in the game's plot, Victor's fiancée.

She was a true Knight of Justice, and Knights of Justice, were destined to stand against the 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 side-step 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 bitch, absolutely cannot be messed with.

Otherwise, he was truly going to die.

Although he had traveled across, it seemed that he didn't have any hang-ups that he could use now.

As if she could see that Victor was a bit defeated, Leah was inexplicably a bit pleasant 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 gave a cold laugh, picked up her satchel, and intended to go out and leave.

"And."

As she was about to leave, Leah turned back and glanced at Victor with a pathetic look.

"To actually keep a crow, or a crow with only one eye as a pet."

"Your aesthetics, it's really as bad as before."

Bang!

The door of the study was slammed shut.

A 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 be focused 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 bad man, I am the Evil God - Azathoth."
