DOOMED TO BE A VILLAIN

The crowd of people who were moving in and out of the entrance of the mall were beginning to hang around as they were interested in the ongoing situation and the murmurs were getting even louder.

Quite a few members of the crowd were against Davies, who they thought to be someone without shame who was willingly receiving the respect deemed for someone else just because he wanted to pose as someone he was not.

Even though they didn't know the full story, nothing stopped them from throwing mud at whoever was on the losing end. That is the type of living creature that human beings are.

They take joy in others' misfortune as long as it had nothing to do with them or the person wasn't close enough to them to trigger their conscience.

[Are humans really like that though?] Miya suddenly asked.

'Of course, they are, why else do you think something like Twitter exists and thrives,'

'It's basically a place where people get destroyed every day and others laugh at their misfortune as long as it doesn't concern them…'

'Well, I'm human as well, I don't really care much about other people either, so I have no issues with it being reciprocated, people never really did care about me after all,' he replied to Miya.

"Who's that?" Davies suddenly heard Tisha ask beside him as she looked at Lee Jung who was walking towards them looking all smug.

"Just a fly, don't worry about it," Davies replied half-heartedly.

"... I don't like flies," Tisha suddenly replied, to his surprise, because according to Tisha's normal behavior, this was not something she'd say, but as he looked at her face, he could see an expression that showed that there was no love lost between them, which to him was surprising as they shouldn't have met much before, less know each other.

'Seems that the protagonist and someone with a dark fate value can never have good feelings between them…' Davies noted as he could see that Tisha obviously disliked Lee Jung for some reason and his presence even caused her to act abnormally rude, but after noting that he focused his attention back on the smug acting protagonist.

As he looked at the smug look on Lee Jung's face, his annoyance grew even further.

"Mr. Whoever the fuck you are, I don't think we're close enough for you to call me by first name," Davies stated, his tone icy enough to cause the surrounding temperature to drop by a degree.

"Eh?" Lee Jung was stunned by the direction of Davies's reply and was completely thrown off balance and could only look surprised.

"Also, in case you are blind enough to not notice,"

"I and my girlfriend here were just going into the mall when mirror head over there appeared before us," Davies continued while motioning towards the bald middle-aged man, making it clear who 'mirror head' was.

The whole crowd burst into laughter at hearing the name Davies had allocated to the poor man.

'G-g-girlfriend?' Tisha's mind literally exploded at Davies's choice of words.

'Mirror head!? Your father is a mirror head! Your grandfather is a mirror head! Your whole family is a mirror head!' the bald middle-aged man screamed internally but didn't dare to say anything out loud as even though he wasn't sure what exactly was going on, he was able to tell that the man before him(Davies) was not the type of person that he could insult and get away with it, irrespective if he was the mystery buyer or not.

"Am I supposed to believe you? You've always been good at lying," Lee Jung retorted, seemingly having gotten a hold of himself.

"First of all, I don't think we're close enough for you to know whether I've always been good at lying or not,"

"Secondly, Yes, I am good at lying, but you aren't worth lying to," Davies replied without even taking a second to think as he was used to these kinds of basic wordplay.

"Uhm… which of you is Mr. Lee Jung?" 'Mirror head' chose this moment to ask, but the moment Davies's icy eyes turned to him, he wished he never spoke.

"I am Lee Jung, I recently bought fifty-three percent of your company's shares and came here for an inspection," Lee Jung didn't know what prompted 'Mirror head' to speak, but he quickly grasped the opportunity to establish his identity with a smug face, eliciting a wave of oohs and aahs from the crowd that was watching the drama with popcorn in their hands… or maybe not with popcorn in their hands.

"Oh, and he's so young," a middle-aged man said.

"What an impressive young man," an old man said admiringly while stroking his long beard.

"Look at what your mates are doing, while the only thing you know how to do is give head," a young woman said to her boyfriend who was standing beside her, causing him to smile embarrassedly.

Davies on the other hand didn't really care much about this new development, as the Olisseum Mall was not something that could compare to his Imperium Technologies, and it was easy for him to destroy it with a mere sentence.

What he was more concerned with was,

'What kind of system gave freebies like this to its host?' this was the only troubling part of this whole situation.

Davies knew that there was no way Lee Jung had acquired the Olisseum's company shares by himself, which meant the system had handed it over to him on a platter of gold without him having to do much.

If that were the case, then Lee Jung's growth in power and wealth would be quite fast which would cause a bit of a problem for Davies, especially as he was still in the process of making his plans as there were too many things to plan for. The monster attack that was to happen a year from now, how to take care of Lee Jung, and many other important things.

[Don't be so pent up, it wouldn't be as bad as you make it sound]

[I don't know if I told you before, but no matter how powerful a system is, they all work on the same principle of exchange]

[That is to say, no system would constantly give freebies without requesting something in return from its host]

[It has to take before it can give]
