The Villain Wants to Live Quietly chapter 1

Chapter 1. The final boss has arrived (1)

Have you ever read a romance fantasy?

When I was in the middle of web novels, there was a time when female-oriented romance fantasy dominated the market.

At the time, I liked romance fantasy that could empathize with the feelings between the main character and the heroine, not the mainstream genres like hunter or academy that men preferred.

I don’t know why. Maybe it was because I didn’t like stories where everything was destroyed and the main character did a great job.

Maybe it’s because I like stories that are more emotional than narrative.

And in this romance fantasy, characters usually called ‘villains’ or ‘villains’ appear.

A common cliché would be the heroine’s fiancée, a man with a broken personality. It was also the type of character I hated the most.

A similar role of a villain appears in the romance fantasy I swear to the moon, which I enjoyed reading the last time.

However, he is not the fiancé of the heroine, but a guy who secretly helped the main villain.

His name is ‘Ludwig Ipretz’. In the end, the villainous character faces a terrible death along with the main villain at the hands of the heroine who becomes a sword master after being caught.

yes. It was good up to there.

That a character I hate dies at the hands of a heroine and no one else. How refreshing would that be?

However, it is only a story under the assumption that the work can be dismissed as a work in a novel.

‘The life of a beggar… … .’

Beautifully crafted glass hangs from the ceiling seen from lying on the bed. It must be the common chandelier.

The appearance of each one of the glass lamps crafted in a luxurious form is truly mesmerizing.

However, for me now, it was just a medium that made me realize the current situation of myself who couldn’t return to reality today.

My height, which was a little less than 190cm, had changed to a state where I wanted to be a little over 170cm at most.

In addition, my hair, which had never been dyed, was not pitch-black, but rather a dark blue color.

This is the biggest feature and trademark of Ludwig, the villain I mentioned earlier.

Yes. 12 years ago, I was trapped in a romance fantasy novel called ‘I swear to Yuluhwa’, which I enjoyed reading so much.

Even while possessing the body of a supporting villain whose death is confirmed.

“ha… … .”

I wonder if the deeply exhaled sigh will dig into the ground and reach my inner core.

When this body was only four years old, I possessed it, and before I knew it, I was sixteen.

For the past 12 years, he has been living quietly without ever returning to reality.

In the work, Ludwig first met Georg, the main villain, when he was seventeen, and became close with him.

‘Three weeks… you’re close.’

Three weeks from today, on my seventeenth birthday, I enter the social world for the first time and meet Georg.

In other words, there are only three weeks left until my dead ending is decided.

According to the original setting, Georg seduces Ludwig and makes him his subordinate and close friend, saying that his eyes resemble his own and he is full of ambition.

‘What should I do? Feigning illness would not be enough.’

‘Karl Ipretz’, the head of the Ipretz family and now my father, is usually docile, but when it comes to events like this or what he has to do, he has a very knife-like and strict standard.

Even if he is the son he cherishes like Keum Ok-yeop, it would be difficult to cover up his first entry into the social world by faking illness.

Still, for the past 12 years, I’ve been living as unnoticed by the people around me as much as possible.

When I was in the middle of my military life in real life, I would practice ‘just halfway through’ as much as possible.

Thanks to that, people around me didn’t pay much attention to me.

He wasn’t bad, but he wasn’t very good either. Because that was the general public opinion of me.

‘Please let it pass peacefully… … .’

It was too late to research how to return to reality now.

That’s why I chose to continue this story as quietly and normally as possible and extend my life.

To do so, it is necessary to fulfill two conditions first.

The first is to avoid meeting Georg.

Even if I don’t walk the path of a villain, Georg is different.

If he grows up as the main villain and my name is woven even a little bit, I don’t know what kind of miserable situation he will face. Therefore, I had to avoid meeting him as much as possible.

The second is to avoid meeting the main heroine, Emilia.

In the work, it was Emilia, who later grew into a swordsman, who revealed Ludwig’s secret parts and directly brought death to him.

Later, she opens her mind’s eye, and gains the ability to see through the true feelings of others to some extent.

It’s not to the extent of reading minds perfectly, but to the extent that you can tell whether a person’s nature is pure or not, and whether or not they are lying.

I’ve never considered my heart dirty, but I’ve never considered it clean either.

So it was important to avoid Groot as much as possible and get out of her eyes.

– smart.

“Who are you?”

【young master. A guest has arrived.】

The body, which jumped up at the familiar voice of the old man, lay down halfway again.

Hans Inspiration. In the work, he is an elderly butler who takes care of Ludwig and is a person of benevolent character.

Perhaps, based on the setup, I know that Ludwig gave Georg advice right before committing evil.

In the end, stupid Ludwig didn’t listen to the advice properly and faced a dead ending… … .

Putting that aside, what kind of guest are you?

“Was anyone coming to see me?”

Befitting the setting of self-restraint of a famous family, I hear the daily schedule from the butler or servant every morning.

But I heard you don’t have anyone to meet with today?

In the first place, I hadn’t entered the social world yet, and there were not many people in the aristocratic family who knew my name.

Because I have lived quietly so that rumors do not spread in a good or bad way.

【Princess Emilia of the Baiemurn family has arrived.】

“…Yeah?”

Emilia Bayemurn? Is it right to say the woman I singled out just a moment ago as someone to be avoided?

My head couldn’t keep up with the sudden situation and I fell into a panic.

‘Why did the final boss come to me all of a sudden?’

There should still be 3-4 years left until the original main story.

Anxiety crept in, but even if it was a sudden visit, it was impossible to issue a congratulatory order to the eldest daughter of the Bayern family.

I sent a message that I would leave soon, but on the way, I felt my neck tremble.

Please don’t be a big deal. I hope that God has not abandoned me who has lived a quiet life until now.
