In My Favorite Novel As The Final Villain

Hearing the notifications from the system, Theos couldn\'t have been happier to receive such juicy rewards... But also his eyes turned as cold as ice, with a tremendous murderous intent that he was fortunately able to barely hide.

\'Alan feeling jealous of me? Doesn\'t that mean he loves Alice?\', such an idea made Theos furious to the point of wanting to kill Alan right now.

But he calmed down, why should he kill the person who gives him a great amount of power all the time? Of course, he\'s going to kill him; he looked at his wife and him with jealousy; he would never tolerate that.

But for now, he would grab the rewards; he didn\'t say before to plan more things to make Alan\'s life more miserable.

The reality was that he hadn\'t had notifications from the system since his birthday because of how busy he\'d been preparing, training, developing plans, and having to do \'drills\' with Alice.

\'But... Wait, that means they all found me, including Alan,\' he concluded, widening his vision thanks to his Hate Attraction ability; he observed the whole scene more widely as if it was a camera capturing images from above.

\'So they\'re there...\' What Theos saw was Alan in one of the groups of students, chatting happily but also looking out of the corner of his eye at Theos.

Possibly because of his great talent and affinity for Manna, he was able to locate Theos. In contrast, Nora and Eleanor were chatting happily, only accompanied by Elsa and Elena, totally apart from the large group of students.

Possibly because Nora knew of Theos\' location, since his father must have told her, she told Eleanor, Elsa, and Elena, so they knew of his location.

\'Damn traitor,\' Theos cursed inwardly, but he didn\'t think much of it, an empty curse; there was even a smile on his face since, thanks to her, he got more rewards.

\'That proves that the system hasn\'t forgotten about me,\' he thought, deciding to continue listening to Klaus\' words, who was already about to finish his speech.

"Today they were greeted by me since no one here is yet qualified to see our director or even deputy director, so they will have to be satisfied with just my old presence, hahaha," laughing a little, the old man made his times his cane touch the stage again.

Under the expectant eyes of the young people, the particles of the platform separated little by little to disappear with the wind, along with a Klaus who turned around, heading inside the door, but not before leaving a few words.

"I wish you luck, I hope you find your place here, make friends to support each other, rivals to improve, find your teachers to learn from and in some future teach the juniors who are in your place right now, but for now, all I can say is this", giving a pause as if he wanted to install suspense in everyone\'s hearts, he continued.

"Learn, learn a lot, because no one knows the dangers that threaten our world and what you will do to protect your loved ones... That\'s all." leaving these last words that sounded darker and more sinister than anything, Klaus entered through the door, disappearing from the students\' sight together with the particles that separated in the air.

\'That last dialogue... I don\'t remember ever hearing it,\' Theos thought cautiously. \'Maybe the curses are already threatening the world? Or will it be a typical extra message and that\'s it? After all, this world is different from the one in the novels, but those last words couldn\'t be casual.\'

Thinking more and more about it, he realized that curses were most likely already lurking around the world; after all, he had already encountered one relatively recently. ∫τօ$гψ!-а+†%-%

"We\'d better go, Alice," she nodded as she listened to Theos\' words, watching as the other students entered through the large door minutes after the old man had entered.

It didn\'t take many minutes for these students to enter the academy door, where finally Theos and Alice approached and also entered with total naturalness.

...

"Wow that\'s big," Alice murmured as she witnessed the entire academy, now closer than what she had seen before.

The buildings bigger and brighter, even Theos marveled at the sight, but he didn\'t stop his walk, as he knew that what came after this would be very important to have a more peaceful school life... And chaotic at the same time.

"Gather in the combat center in building 09, please, all students are needed there."

The robotic voice echoed throughout the academy again, making Theos smile. \'At least this is exactly similar to the original plot,\' he thought, pausing briefly to look at the numbers of the various buildings.

"There it is," Theos said, pointing to one of the largest buildings on the grounds, entirely black with red lines, as tall as a skyscraper.

Theos moved forward with Alice, holding and intertwining their hands, for them, this was a common thing after spending so many crazy nights together... Exercise nights *cough*.

When she looked closer, she saw that next to the building there was a label with a large number "09", so I understand why Theos considered this building as the one said by the voice.

Indeed, there was a line of students waiting there, although there weren\'t that many anymore, possibly that voice was repeated many times when the first student entered.

They only had to wait a couple of minutes for them to also enter with total naturalness, observing the whole building from inside, with total technology that looked extremely modern, but this did not interest Theos, who only saw in front of him the crowd of students gathered under one point.

At the epicenter, a large, burly man stood out among the others; with a serious expression, he watched each of the young people, including Theos and Alice.

Staring at Theo\'s, the man smiled brightly, but that smile disappeared as quickly as it appeared, again turning his attention to the other students. "I\'m William, a commoner like many here."

William\'s words had a hidden meaning that the noble students noticed, but they said nothing, merely thinking.

Instead, the commoners watched William in admiration, amazed that a commoner like them had come so far, despite starting so low.

But before they could question him, William spoke again, this time raising his voice higher. "Now, you are going to fight me."
