Why Should I Stop Being a Villain

Chapter 301 Woke Up

?301 Woke up

He had made a mistake once, but it wouldn't happen twice.

Not once had Farnus thought that a situation would arise in a way that he would need to leave the World Academy, and even if it did, he didn't need to go all out to fight against the monsters.

Farnus turned around as his work was done; the next morning Kevin would wake up normally without feeling anything odd inside his body.

There was just one thing missing, and it was the mark of the Ancient Rune that had been taken away by Farnus.

But Farnus was glad that the other piece of Stormscale Armor was still with Kevin, and it was the last thing that Farnus wouldn't sacrifice no matter the cost.

This was something that Asher hadn't planned, but he knew that Farnus had made Kevin Whiteheart his successor, and the mastery that Kevin had with his Ancient Rune didn't look like that of a novice.

People assumed that Kevin was a prodigy who could master it so quickly, but they didn't know that Farnus had allowed Kevin to mature the Ancient Rune inside his body, making it one with the lightning element.

But now that the rune was separated from Kevin's body, the mana went rampant inside his mana core and caused him to lose consciousness.

Farnus moved towards his training room that he had built far from World Academy, in another part of the flying island.

"This could be a good opportunity," Farnus muttered as he sat down and closed his eyes.

If the threat of this new Zephyr grew, it could allow Farnus to increase the speed of his plans and use it wisely to gain what he wanted much more openly.

Even though Farnus wanted to kill Zephyr and the people that caused this, he knew that it was a good chance to move his plans without breaking his oaths.

With Farnus in seclusion, there was one more person that was glad with the outcome of this situation, and it was none other than Nathan Greville.

With two SSS Rank Mana Gems in his hand, Nathan could finally use one of them and try to increase his strength that had remained stagnant for the last decade.

"Hassan," Nathan said as Hassan appeared before him.

Right now they were sitting in the Abyss Guild Headquarters on the highest floor.

"I will use the SSS Rank Mana Gems, but to do so, you know what's needed, right?" Nathan asked.

"Yes, My Lord," Hassan replied.

There was a reason why Greyhounds were made from only people tied to the Greville Family, and despite talented people outside the Greyhounds, they were never invited into this group.

You could be part of the Abyss Guild, but being part of the Greyhounds was impossible unless you were born into the families of one of the Greyhounds.

"I will wait until the twins join the Academy," Nathan said as he looked at the news he had received about the injuries of other SSS Rank Hunters.

"But spread the news that Nathan Greville has gone into training," Nathan said, and Hassan understood his intentions.

Hassan went outside, and Nathan opened the file that Alfred had sent him about multiple different sources that had tried to approach assassins and a few groups to attack the twins.

Asher and Alyssa were in World Academy, and the best targets to bring down the Greville were none other than the twins.

"I will need to clean up a few things before I can focus on my training, tsk," Nathan said with an annoyed tone, but his facial expressions were different.

His room was filled with his killing intent, and a small smile crept on his face.

"I wonder who will make the first move," Nathan said as he looked at the information Alfred had sent him.

Right now, apart from Somaria and Halcyon, a lot of chaos was happening inside the other three continents.

From Elite Families to scandals that were coming out.

This made people who had allied with each other for years turn their backs on them.

And this was the perfect moment for someone to take advantage of all the mess and aim their arrows against others while hiding perfectly.

And this was why Nathan wanted to make sure that before he would increase his strength and push towards the peak of SSS Rank, there would be no harm to the family.

He knew that him hoarding two SSS Rank Mana Gems would make other SSS Rank Hunters move against him together.

At the World Academy,

"Ugh," Kevin grunted as he felt a bit of pain near his chest, and he squinted his eyes due to the light around him.

"Where am-," He was speaking as he felt someone hugging him.

"You finally woke up!" Elena spoke as she hugged Kevin immediately.

"Ah, Elena?" Kevin said, but he was confused about what was happening.

The last thing he remembered was him practicing with Elena and Eva, but he didn't know what happened after that.

"What happened?" Kevin asked as he put his hand on Elena's shoulders.

"That we- we were practicing, and I-I hit," Elena was speaking, but Eva interrupted her.

"Don't blame yourself, Elena. It wasn't your fault," Eva said, as she knew that Elena was still blaming herself.

"You stopped midway, and Elena's spell hit you, and you were unconscious for more than two days," Eva explained.

Kevin tried to remember, but he only remembered up to the moment he asked Elena to increase her intensity of attacks.

"Excuse me, you should go outside. We need to perform checkups to make sure everything is okay," The Doctor intervened.

"Let's leave for now," Eva said, and Elena, although reluctant, left the room.

Arriving outside the room, leaving Kevin with a team of doctors, Eva took out her phone and messaged Raelyn about this.

Due to the recent issue outside, lots of students wanted to contact their families, and many other issues made the Student Council busy.

Although Raelyn had come to the medical facility to see Kevin yesterday, she couldn't stay beside him the whole time.

As the Doctors had told them that Kevin was fine, he would wake up soon.

Kevin was confused, but he didn't even know that he had lost a very valuable thing that he didn't even know he had.

But right now, everything inside aside from the pain around his chest area looked normal. His mana core was stable, and his mana meridians were not damaged at all.

Neither he nor the doctors knew why such a thing happened, as they could never guess it was due to an Ancient Rune.

"We will run a few tests, so tell us if you feel uncomfortable at any time," The Doctor told Kevin, who was gathering his thoughts right now.

"Yeah," Kevin nodded as the team of Doctors began their tests.

Meanwhile, Leonard was sitting with Reece Williams, discussing their plans and the situation outside.

"So did you contact your father?" Reece asked.

"No, I was told he is unavailable right now," Leonard replied.

Reece took note of Leonard's expressions as he moved a piece on the chessboard.

"Do you think you made a good choice?" Reece asked.

"Even if we wanted to, with the amount of information that was floating around, it would have been near impossible to even interfere in all that," Leonard replied.

Even though Leonard knew that they had suffered major losses due to the recent incidents, it was better for them to stay away. They had no way of controlling all the information being spread over the internet.

Only Osbert could have swayed the World Association in his favor; it wasn't something Leonard could do.

But alas, Osbert and the other SSS Rank Hunters had come back late, and even now, none of them were making any sort of public appearances.

"We can take it slow for now," Leonard said as he moved the rook.

Reece didn't reply, but a smile appeared on his face.

Leonard's words meant that all those people were disposable, and they could find others to replace them, but it wasn't as easy as they had thought it would be.

The people were chosen carefully by Osbert, who made sure that he could control them whenever he wanted.

And those individuals that Leonard wanted to involve in their plans in the future were already under Aztech's influence. However, all the deals happened privately, so nobody knew about them at all.

"Apart from that, you were saying that you had a plan in mind. What about that?" Leonard asked.

"Don't worry, I will not hinder your Blood Faction," Reece replied, moving his knight.

Leonard looked at Reece for a second and then proceeded to play the game with him.

Both of them were business partners outside the World Academy, and they had their own goals to achieve within the World Academy.

Reece's goal was to achieve the top spot upon graduation from the World Academy, whereas Leonard had plans of his own.

'So, when should I approach him?' Reece questioned himself.

After all he still wanted to attempt the plan that he hadn't been able to at the Kalvas Gala.
