The Villain's Story

Chapter 12 Richard Thompson

Number 18 ranked hero and Also the guild master of the third strongest guild on Earth. Richard Thompson.

With long black hair, a perfect jawline, obsidian eyes, and skin possessing no flaw whatsoever. A body that screamed magnificent by just looking at his figure. That was Richard Thompson. The

He was Currently feeling conflicted.

Why? Because the youth that was currently all over the news for being the first spatial affinity awakened was standing in front of him and the elders of his guild. Who all were feeling conflicted just like him.

.. How could they not be suspicious when the youth that was all over the news around earth wanted to join their guild and not the guilds above them?

Twilight could provide him with resources, But Titan, Behemoth, and The Union could provide him with resources that twilight couldnʼt even imagine doing.

So why them?

The youth wasnʼt brain dead. He could already tell that from his eyes which were beautiful diamonds yet possessed a cold and ruthless look, One that could only be formed when someone had been fucked over majorly in their life.

If anything, His pretending to be a scared act had already been seen through by everyone present in this room.

The youth was a terrible actor.

Which was why he was reluctant and suspicious as to why the youth wanted to join his guild.

Under normal circumstances, He wouldnʼt even need to see him as the registration process would be done by the staff.

The only reason he was being interviewed was because of his SS rank talent.

He was someone that would grow to be more powerful than even Richard himself, Who was already an S+ ranked hero whose original talent was only A but had managed to surpass it with his luck in finding a great bloodline and hard work.

He didnʼt want to take him into twilight.

But he also couldnʼt shake off the feeling that this was a great opportunity.

Especially So because the youth was a one in a million talent. He wanted to take him into his guild. But.

But then, Why was he fucking feeling afraid of the youth in front of him? Especially when all he needed to do was exert his pressure fully to remove him from existence.

Why? Was it his eyes?

Was it the Cold and ruthless look present in his eyes that he tried to hide but miserably couldnʼt?

Richard contemplated but ultimately failed to find a reason.

Little did he know, He was afraid of something else,something the boy in front of him himself was unaware he was exuding.

And in the end, he trusted his battle-honed instincts and decided to let him into the guild.

Although he was still suspicious as to why he would join their guild instead of the Titan or Behemoth. He decided to trust his instincts over his mind this time, He decided to trust the instincts that had saved his ass both during battle and during the business.

Little did Richard know, The moment the youth signed the contract, Was a blessing for twilight. A blessing that would quickly make them the Number one ranked guild In the future.

Also, If Richard knew that the only reason the youth joined his guild was that he didnʼt want to meet certain individuals...

He would have had no qualms in ripping his hair out.

And just like that, Alan Peccator had become a member of the Twilight guild.

***

Back at the orphanage, I sat down on my bed.

ʼOk, Preparations are complete, I just need to pack mine Samanthaʼs stuff. ʼ

We shouldnʼt have a lot of stuff I think, I mean we were in an orphanage and guessing from the fact that the orphanage director was a smoking addict and greedy as hell.

Twilight was going to send a car over here tomorrow to pick me and my sister up

We should barely have any belongings.

I walked out of my room and headed to Samanthaʼs. Oddly enough, I somehow knew where her room was.

Memories of the previous owner huh?

Anyways, I went to her room which was on the same floor as mine, just hella far from my room.

Arriving in front of the door, I was about to knock when I heard a girl talking.

”Awww, is this a picture of the crippleʼs mommy and daddy, What if I rip it? ”

”Olivia... Please stop it...”

”Donʼt want to, Iʼm gonna rip i-?! ”

The door flew open and The brother of the ʼCrippleʼ walked in. With a Look on his face that said he was ready to kill whoever messed with the ʼCripple.ʼ

With my enhanced hearing, by becoming an awakened I heard everything clearly, and when I did I snapped. An immense amount of rage welled up inside me and I kicked the door open. The poor wooden door couldnʼt withstand The strength rank of E+.

I wanted to kill. To tear apart the bitch who had said those words.

I walked into the room and found three girls, who looked to be the same age as Samantha surrounding her, Currently they were all looking at the sudden intruder. Fear is apparent on their faces. Samantha had the same fear on her face seeing her brother look so livid.

I walked up to the girl that a photo in her hand.

I grabbed her by the throat and lifted her.

It was pretty easy because I received a major stat boost from awakening.

I wanted to strangle her. To choke this little girl to death. I was going to, if not for Samantha.

”Al! Please stop!!”

That voice, that voice was the one that seemingly drove all the rage inside me away and brought rationality back to my mind.

I released my hold on the girlʼs neck. She fell and touched her neck while gasping for breath. Her neck was red and she soon began to cry.

”Hikkk... Hilke *Sniff*”

”Shut up before I kill you for real.”

I said to the girl who I nearly choked to death.

She immediately stopped although her face was red and filled with snot and tears.

I then looked at Samantha who along with all the other girls was on the verge of tears.

”Samantha, tell me which stuff to pack.”

Samantha did not respond, I repeated my words.

”Samantha, What stuff of yours do I have to pack? ”

She finally responded, although she stuttered I understood her clearly.

”Und-er the be-ed over th-here.”

She said while pointing to a bed.

Without replying, I walked to the bed and looked underneath it, there I found a school bag that looked to be filled to the brim. I picked it up. Then I Held the handles of Samanthaʼs wheelchair I walked out of the room pushing Samantha into her wheelchair.

The other girls just looked at me, the one I choked has wet herself.

Paying them no mind I exited the room and began to walk towards my room. While walking Samantha asked.

”.. Brother. ”

”Yes? ”

I replied, already knowing what she was going to ask.

”Thank you”

Huh? Wasnʼt she going to ask me why I did what I just did?

I was confused, the question I had suspected had not even come up, But I did not say anything else. It was taking my all to suppress my rage.

Reaching my room I opened the door and went inside with Samantha. Closing the door I said.

”You can sleep here today. Sis”

There was no response. Looking over at her, I found out that she was already asleep. Seeing her I thought.

ʼPoor girl, Then shock must have taken a toll on her carried her, and laid her down on the bed.

After confirming that she was fast asleep.

I recalled the events that had just occurred.

I, A twenty-nine-year-old man who is now in the body of a fifteen-year-old boy.

Had Nearly choked a six-year-old girl to death. By no means was I a saint but I also wasnʼt a deranged psychopath. What I did just there was not me. I was cold and ruthless, yeah but not to children.

Calming myself down by taking a few huge breaths. I sighed and thought to myself.

ʼI need to fix this body problem quickly.ʼ
