Life Of A Nobody - as a Villain

2 days ago

"What the actual fuck is happening? I didn't even do nothing yet?" Rio said, as he looked at the barrage of notifications floating in front of him. 

The system suddenly went haywire and started putting all kinds of warnings and weird messages, that made no sense to him on his status, and he was beyond confused at everything that happened. 

"Oyee system, before you go nuts on something, explain to me what the hell is wrong with you?" He spat, unable to hold the growing unease those warning tags brought him. 

[Host there's something interfering in the world. It's like an intrusion or something. The world will is fighting against it, but I don't see any chance of it stopping whatever's coming to Arcadia.]

"What do you mean by intrusion. That event isn't supposed to happen for years. How the hell is it happening now?" Rio asked, as his mind went through the entire plot of the novel and found something similar which happened way past mid sections of the novel. But then he remembered something and stopped. 

"Wait, is it even that same event, cause that shit shouldn't be started until after the barrier was broken in phase 2 and stuff went way past the control of anyone. Who the hell can interfere in that?"

[I don't know host. I've tried searching for an answer too, but there's nothing I can do. My scans can only cover the Arcadia and whatever it is, or whover it is, hasn't actually entered yet. But you're right this isn't the same event anymore. Otherwise plot direction would've been altered majorly and I would've sensed the altercations.] System replied in its tone, filled with urgency, yet trying to sound calm. 

"If it's not that, then what is it? Is it because of something I did. No wait. I didn't even look past the beginning events of the academy yet. I changed nothing that can bring catastrophies like this forward." 

Rio asked in a hurry, he had finally let down his guard a little and started to enjoy his life now, since everything was going so perfectly, he had found out about Ria, he had changed his villainous beginning by killing Noah, he stopped the engagement with Rebecca, everything was going so smoothly for him, then why. Why this, why now? 

"Please tell me it's not because of me." 

He hoped, no begged, for a positive answer, cause if it was something that happened due to him being in Arcadia, then he couldn't be sure what kind of consequences or other changes awaited him. He was in no way prepared for any of it. 

Deep down he knew it must have something to do with him, after all he's the only anomaly in this world. Something that's out of this novel setting. But he really hoped it would be something different. 

For the first time after coming to Arcadia, he prayed, prayed truly in his heart, by all his heart, that it doesn't turn out that way.

 Any changes, any inconsistency he couldn't see now, could be something that can put Amelia and him back on the destined path of doom, and he really wanted to avoid that. He couldn't go through any of that pain again. The hope he had finally gotten back, would shatter him too if it broke now. I think you should take a look at

[I can't be sure, host. But that's the only explanation.] System replied truthfully.

According to the facts it could see and analyze, his involvement is the only explanation. But the doubt that it might as well be the doing of that being, or the people with those red eyes, whoever they were, was also a possibility. But the system couldn't tell him that. Those were things even the system couldn't understand, so how was it supposed to explain anything to him? 

"Fuck" Rio cursed loudly, letting out his ftustrations. 

A slight headache was assaulting him as his brain tried to process all the thoughts and stress that came with that information. 

He slapped his head a few times, and started taking deep breaths "okay, okay, let's tone it down." He said as he breathed out, trying to calm himself. "Take it step by step."

"We both can agree that there isn't anything that I did yet which could result in something like this, right?" He asked. 

[Yes. Killing Noah and breaking off your engagement are major events, but not the biggest ones, as both of these things were only put in plot to fuel the flame of villainy at the beginning for you. They play no other role in the main setting of the story.]

"Right, so what else could it be? Is it because of all the attention from Gods that I'm getting? Did one of them have something to do with it?" Rio asked, thinking about all the possibilities and chances that might, in some off chance, lead to some shitstorm like this.. 

[No. Every God in Arcadia is bound by the world's will, and they can't go against it easily. I can't sense if any of them have even noticed what's happening right now. So it's highly unlikely that they have something to do with this.]

"Then what else is there? If it's not the people of Arcadia, nor the gods of Arcadia, what else is different. What else is there that wasn't a part of the story, and could cause this?"

[There's nothing host. These are the only changes you brought here, and it's not because of them. Everything else is the same as in novel.] System spoke slowly, with every moment its speculation that it was some doing of 'that being' increased and seemed more feasible. But why he didn't inform it, the system couldn't understand. 

"Wait, there's something else. Earth." Rio said in high pitched tone. His brain finally thought of a possibility that might be the reason behind this, and he didn't like that idea. Cause that theory brought even more shitshows and shitstorms.
