01. Possessing an Insignificant Villain

Beep!

“Gasp!” I woke up just as I heard a loud mechanical sound.

Fuck, that surprised me.

I turned my head reflexively. Then, a hard-shaped machine, which had just let out a loud noise, emitted a low beeping sound.

Beep, Beep, Beep…

Is this a newly placed alarm?

I don’t remember buying anything like that.

I glanced at the huge machine, while pressing my throbbing head. The hard, square machine had a long string, and the string attached…

“Crazy, what is this?”

The string on the machine was attached to my body. I opened my eyes wide at the string hanging on my chest.

“What’s this? Ugh.”

""

I felt a splitting headache as I’m taking the string off. I lowered my head. Beep–, the sound kept ringing in my ears.

“Ugh, fuck.”

After waiting for my headache to subside, I finally raised my head. My forehead, wet with sweat, bothered me. I looked around for something to wipe and my body suddenly stiffened.

“…Where is this?”

I was amazed by the view of the room that I had never seen before. The room was quite spacious and clean. Very different from my small room, which looks like a pigsty. Wallpaper and furniture were monotonous, neat and tidy. I looked nervously around the empty room.

“Is this place someone’s room?”

I went to many unfamiliar places for work, but I couldn’t believe this was someone’s room once I opened my eyes. I suddenly got goosebumps.

Moreover, there was a strange machine connected to my chest, and most importantly, I was topless. I couldn’t help but grit my teeth at the person who made me look like this.

I wandered around the room looking for clothes to wear. Then I stopped moving when I saw a full-length mirror near me.

“Wha–?!” A pale-looking man in the mirror looked at me and was appalled.

His small, pale white face was extremely good-looking. I might have thought he was an idol if I saw him passing by. His wide open eyes were like deer’s eyes, and his small, beautiful lips were not pale as his face, but caught my eye.

He had a skinny body, but he had some fine muscles and was quite handsome. I kept looking at the man in the mirror with this ghostly face.

After some time I noticed that this man in the mirror was me. I was dumbfounded and confused, but when I pinched my cheeks, it wasn’t a dream.

“Abs… My abs…” I muttered in vain while stroking my flat stomach.

Initially, my body was not muscular. I worked out hard because there were so many people with good body shape around me, but I’m not gaining as much muscle as I wanted. However, after working hard, I had shredded abs, though not by much. Uhuhuk, my abs, there’s nothing there.

“Damn it, who the fuck is this bastard…” I muttered in annoyance and looked around.

I approached the desk wearing a rough t-shirt. As if to show the personality of the owner of the body, a notebook, pen, wallet, and cell phone were placed on a neatly arranged desk.

I grabbed the wallet first. To find out who the owner of this body was, I had to start with identification. I opened a black leather wallet and saw several crisp bills and credit cards.

As I continued to search, I saw several ID cards. I thought it was an ID card and driver’s license, but one of them had a strange colour.

“Hunter… license?”

Was this bastard an otaku1? On the green ID card, the word “hunter’s license” was written.

Hunter? I couldn’t believe he’s a hunter.

Don’t tell me it’s the hunter, I think it is.

I smirked at the thought, but behind it was information I couldn’t ignore.

Hunter License

Name: Han Yijin

Registration number: 21B-32269

Rank: B

Affiliation: Loki Guild

“…”

For a moment, the contents of the novel flashed through my head. A male-oriented novel that keeps me on my phone until bedtime. My hands trembled as I shuddered, staring at the hunter’s license in disbelief.

“Han… Yi Jin? The dual-class loser villain bastard, Han Yi Jin?”

[The World’s Only SS Class Returnee]

As the title suggests, it was a novel where the protagonist was sucked into a gate and barely returned, becoming the only SS-class hunter in the world and unrivaled.

I was bored so I read the free ones, until I binge read all night paying for them. The author’s writing skills were unbelievably good. While smiling happily remembering the episode I read last night, I looked at the license again with a serious look.

It’s possible that this license was fake… Someone more crazy about novels than I am could think of these cards as mere merchandise. But right away I thought it didn’t make sense. If that’s the case, I would had a card2 as the main character, Kang Yoo Hyun, or I won’t have an insignificant villain bastard card.

“Sigh….”

I sighed and washed my face dry.

Was the owner of this body really Han Yi Jin? So, this place is a fictional world? What nonsense…

Han Yi Jin was a villain in the early stages of dual-class. When the main character Kang Yoo Hyun returned from the gate and was in the spotlight, he played the role of a loser who made him into a pathetic villain.

I was in a state of disbelief to think it was me now. When I read the novel, I was immersed in the main character, so when Han Yi Jin made a mistake, I was just angry and annoyed. But when Kang Yoo Hyun beat him and he died in an accident, it was sad.

But was that me now? I’m the insignificant villain?

“Why, of all things…!”

I threw the hunter’s license on the desk. At least if I couldn’t be the main character, I could be a supporting character who helped the main character or an ordinary extra, but Han Yi Jin? A villain bastard with B-rank ability who was beaten to death by the main character?

It was clear that God had forsaken me. My life before I possessed was not smooth, but how could He put me through yet another ordeal like this?

“Argg! Ackk! Ackkk!”

…Let’s run away.

I made up my mind and packed my stuff quickly. Actually, I wasn’t sure where Han Yi-jin’s belongings were, so I just took his wallet and cell phone.

I didn’t know how far this book has progressed, but seeing Han Yi Jin alive and well like this, it must be the beginning of the story. That would give him enough time to escape.

I should never have met the protagonist. Even if I’ve changed inside and I haven’t done anything bad, the main character won’t stay still when he meets me, who is a villain.

The Loki Guild that Han Yi Jin resided in was a guild affiliated with the Villain Union. Here, Han Yi Jin’s room must be one of the branches of the Loki Guild. So being here alone is dangerous for me. After organising my thoughts quickly, I approached and opened the door.

“…!”

“Where are you going?”

Fuck!

The curse almost came out of my mouth.

When I opened the door, the man leaning against the opposite wall slowly approached.

He was a man with flashy pink hair. The clothes he wore were also unusual, and there were so many fluorescent colours that it dazzled me. I glanced through the piercings dangling from his ears as he asked.

“Who?”

“…What?”

The man opened his eyes wide as if surprised by my question. Then he looked at me with a smirk and opened his mouth.

“Did you eat something wrong? What’s wrong with you?”

“…”

He seemed to know me very well, or rather Han Yi Jin. I frowned at his intense pink hair as if piercing my eyes. That wasn’t a common hair colour. Even though this was a fantasy world, the hair colour was similar to my original world because of the modern setting.

Pink-haired man, plus in the Loki Guild…

“…Eden?”

His unique name makes it easier to remember. Like Han Yi Jin, he was a member of the Loki Guild, but halfway through the story, he betrayed the guild leader and went to the main character.

Eden, A-rank, a talented person from Loki Guild.

“I almost felt sad. Yi Jin-ah.”

He gently closed his eyes and smiled like a fox, and put his hand on my shoulder. Was Han Yi Jin close to this guy? It doesn’t look like that in the novel.

Of course, Han Yijin disappeared quickly as an attention whore in the beginning, so the relationship wasn’t very well described. Eden then appeared and took over the role of the villain, but he was treated very differently.

Unlike the dim-witted Han Yi Jin, he was cunning and was capable of escaping any difficult situation. Although it was a bit of a bad omen when he smirked and smiled at the protagonist, he was a character who showed a good heart through a series of events and drew the readers’ good impressions of him.

They both started out as villains, though. The readers are too much.

I frowned and glared at Eden.

“Get your hands off me.”

“Aing~3, you’re mean.”

The way he speaks kinda?

I brushed his hand and asked harshly. “Why are you here?”

“Me?”

Then Eden smiled doubtfully, as if to say, “Ask me anything.”

There seemed to be something between the two that I didn’t know about. I shouldn’t have asked him thoughtlessly.

I gulped and was nervous, and he tilted his head and looked at me.

“Aren’t you acting a little strange today?”

“Me?”

For some reason, a warning signal rang in my head that I would be in big trouble if I confronted the cliché that I wasn’t Han Yi Jin or that I had lost my memory.

I wasn’t just possessed by an ordinary character. A villain was a villain, even if it was an insignificant villain. Loki’s Guild was also filled with villains who threatened the main character.

The same was true for Eden before his eyes. He wasn’t S-class, but he was A-class, and an advanced one at that, so he was equivalent with an regular S-class.

Showing weakness in front of such a guy? It’s the same as suicide.

I answered feistily, deliberately pretending to be firm.

“What’s strange? Fuck off if you don’t have business.”
