I Am The Game's Villain Chapter 8 Death Pact

[Where are you going?]

Jarvis asked.

I was currently out of the mansion walking toward a peculiar place. It was late at night and I was wearing a hoodie, so people didn't recognize .

"Did you ever wonder why Edward, who is weak as hell, beca a major antagonist in the first ga and the main antagonist in the second ga?"

I answered with a question because, yeah, I was extrely weak right now. So weak that everyone would laugh at imdiately if I told them that I would beco one of the strongest people in the Continent.

[According to the ga, Ante-Eden lent you power.]

"Yeah."

[Ante-Eden] was a terrorist organization and the most dangerous villain organization of the First Ga. Edward should have been part of that organization but my recent actions slightly changed the plot, it completely changed the plot...

In the ga, a drunken Edward will nearly assault one of the [Main Heroines] a few days after the academy entrance day. Obviously, the prince in shining armor, the protagonist, will be there to save her. News about Edward's despicable act would spread throughout the whole kingdom and Thon Falkrona would disown Edward. At that ti, an executive of [Ante-Eden] will enter in contact with Edward and promise him revenge if he joined them which he would gladly do.

And what he will get from them is-

"The Death Pact"

[Death Pact?]

"Yeah, it's basically offering your body to a higher being. In exchange, you will get a part of their power. But if you ain't strong enough to withstand their presence you could lose sanity or worse, your life."

[But Edward did.]

"Yeah, Edward had deep hatred toward his family and the whole academy that mocked him. His ntality was cold steel. He made the pact and one God had matched Edward…"

I trailed off as I rembered what Edward would beco and what he had done during the three gas. Mass slaughter. The number of people he killed easily exceeded the six digits. He turned so many people's lives into nightmares that I can understand why he was ranked third in the most hated people poll. And that God…

No, it wasn't important anymore, since I wasn't Edward and I trailed off from the original plot. I abandoned my status and left the house willingly and I wasn't going to assault that Heroine either.

[From what you are saying, you are not going to make that pact with that said God.]

"Yeah, the truth is that the God that Edward had ford a pact with was, of course, strong and he made Edward, a monster, capable of rivaling [Monarchs]."

[Then?]

"I will make a death pact, but not with that God. I will probably be way weaker than Edward from the ga, but that God is the devil himself, he's too dangerous. I would lose myself if I chose him."

[Good decision.]

"Right."

Still, there was a high chance of dying or losing my sanity, but hey, let's believe in my plot armor if I had one. I really had no choice. I can't live without power in that hellish world. As soone who played that ga, I knew that. The threats were countless and dangerous. I had to be strong and I didn't want to rely on soone else to protect .

I stopped my steps and looked at my surroundings. No one was there. Well, it was normal. I was before a cursed temple. The temple before was crumbling and extrely dirty. Hundreds of years ago, it was a holy temple of Eden but an incident happened. One day, hundreds of people praying in the temple died in a horrible death. Since that day, no one has approached that temple which was said to be cursed by evil Gods.

Yeah, that was why I was here. I was going to look for a God, be it evil or a good-natured one. Both could be present in such a temple. It was the first place that ca to my mind when I decided to form a death pact. I heard about this temple in a side quest of the ga. I would never have thought that it would be helpful now.

"Okay, let's enter. Jarvis, keep an eye on my back."

[Copy that.]

I cringed at Jarvis' reply and entered the temple. Since everything was broken, I had a hard ti walking. Stone, boulders, carcasses of animals and even human bones were in my way. With my fat body, I had tumbled down several tis.

[Are you certain nobody has co here?]

"Nope, but I'm sure no one will try to make a death pact in such a place."

Even true evil people would be scared to lose their lives by summoning an evil god too strong for them. By the way, all the main characters had death pacts that they call 'Divine Blessings' or a unique bloodline like . They won't have to do a death pact like since their ancestors already did. It was sothing that could be inherited from father to child, so it was really convenient.

I also had the Falkrona bloodline obtained thanks to the founder of the Falkrona house, but as displayed on my screen or status, I didn't even awaken the 1st Wing.

"Yeah, curse that useless God blessing the Falkrona."

[Copy that]

"What are you doing…?"

[Just in case.]

"In case of wh-arghhh!"

I fell pathetically and rolled on the ground like a ball. After rolling for about ten seconds, I coughed all the dirt out of my mouth.

"Cough! Ah! I will probably get out of this damn temple with Tetanus!"

I cursed seeing my bloodied hands and legs.

I didn't know on what I rolled and I didn't want to know either.

"Finally."

When I looked up, I saw the large hall, just like the nave of a church back on Earth. I walked until the end and reached the sanctuary. Usually there should be several statues or holy hallows of Eden, but there was nothing anymore in the cursed temple. Not that I cared about it.

I cleaned the ground a little and took out a random sharp thorny branch from the ground. Then with it I prickled my finger hard. It hurt but I had to do it with my blood.

Once blood started to co out, I started to write sothing on the ground.

[What are-]

"Don't ask what I am writing, since I don't know either. I'm just writing the runes I saw in the ga."

I cut off Jarvis.

[Runes?]

"Yeah. I've got a good mory so I can still rember what Ante-Eden had drawn at that ti, so Edward can form a death pact."

I continued to draw the runes while prickling my other fingers if I lacked blood.

It was like I was summoning a demon…

Putting aside these thoughts, I stood up.

I entered the circle of runes and waited.

"..."

[...]

"..."

[...]

"Nothing is happening…"

I fought the urge to destroy everything around and concentrated.

Still nothing.

[Maybe you should use your mana.]

"Ah, yes."

I nearly forgot that I could use mana in this world. Edward might be a weakling now, but he could still use mana.

I slowly leaked out my mana and-

"Finally!"

The blood-red runes shone and a pillar of light shot out into heaven with at its center.

"Who?"

"Get out."

"I am hungry.

"Help ."

"It hurt!!!!"

I felt chills when voices echoed around , but it wasn't the ti to lose concentration.

"I am asking for a death pact."

I said the keyword so I could get in contact with the higher beings, with a chance.

"!"

The bright light turned green, white, then pitch black before entering my body.
