The Repetitive Cycle of a Prodigy
I lay down, looking up at the sky as I think about all that I've accomplished. Being top of the class, doing well in sports, recruited by many great universities, among other lists of achievements for my age. Having said that, I always look fondly upon the faces of those who set my expectations and their cheers for my success. Though, that is up to the extend of that.
I'm still currently in high school, a year before graduation, and at the top as I have mentioned before. If you asked me what I plan to do, you'd expect a variety of options in my future career path.
I'm skilled enough to go pro and even potentially be able to play for the national team, though I'll have train a bit harder if I want to reach the level of the best in the world and even more to reach legendary status.
I'm knowledgeable in every class I've attended. Everything my mind consumes enters my brain and remains in it until I need it. I excel in math, literature, art, biology, geography, space, and all others. I've been regarded as my school's top prodigy, even past just my city.
In all, I'm the very definition of the word GENIUS, but...
??: "Oh, you're here already?"
While I do appreciate every compliment and smile, I always saw right through everything. I'd stroke my own ego with their hungry eyes and words, but it only went so far before I slowly began to yearn for sincerity. Every compliment directed towards the genius that is Y/n L/n was followed by a favor, and every smile shown to the prodigy Y/n L/n comes with a cost.
Despite attaining the title of genius that I strove for so desperately in the past for their attention. In the end, I only encountered both jealousy and greed. Use and be used. Ego and insanity. Loneliness and discomfort.
Y/n: "I'm always here.."
I would look in the mirror and question myself, what is the purpose of obtaining everything in my grasp if it brings nothing I truly desire. If I can refer back to the original question, what do I plan to do? Exactly what is expected of me. Attend university and pass with excellent grades. What are my goals after?.. Nothing.
??: "*sighs* Today sucked"
My mind could wander and think of all that it wants, but in the end, I'm shackled by chains of fate to follow what is expected of me. I am the pride of the family and viewed as the crown of my city.
Y/n: "You failed at something?"
I look over to see another boy in my grade sit beside me. His name is Kentaro Uzaki. He is an invisible boy in the eyes of all beside mine. He doesn't excel in sports and barely scrapes by in academics. He's alright in appearance while being hard working in the classroom. His grades are average at best and just slightly below average at worst. He is my opposite, average.
This boy leaves school on time and probably arrives home to family welcoming him. He would eat a warm cooked meal by his mother or sister and speak on how exhausting school is for him while those around him tease or scold the boy. I'm certain he stays up late playing video games or reading manga before realizing he might not get enough rest for the day.
I always pondered to myself, would I have been like that if I hadn't taken such a route? Would my parents have been the same as I project them to be in his life?
Kentaro: "Nah. I stayed up all night thinking about some questions that I'm sure you won't get right this time"
Y/n: "I'll allow you to test my knowledge then"
The boy seems to find amusement in picking my brain with questions. He isn't really asking anything of me but acknowledgment if he can't beat me, something no one has ever done.
Kentaro: "ALRIGHT!!! Let the 7th test begin!!"
"I wonder what he's concocted this time?"
Kentaro: "What is the name of the flying cat of the main protagonist in Fairy Tail?"
Y/n: "Happy"
Kentaro: "That was pretty easy, I'm letting you know that it's the last one"
This is what it consists of. His love for anime and competitive nature grew in me a fondness of it as well.
Kentaro: "Who's the Author to Dog Days?"
Y/n: "Masaki Tzusuki"
I don't partake in them by the way, I simply do my research beforehand since I'm sure he'll question me in the future.
Kentaro: "Who's Yor Forger's Voice Actress?!"
Y/n: "Saori Hayami"
Kentaro: "WHO ARE THE CHARACTER'S REFERENCED IN THE NAME RWBY?!"
Y/n: "Ruby Rose, Weiss Schnee, Blake Belladonna, and Yang Xiao Long"
Kentaro: "JUST GET ONE WRONG!!!"
Y/n: "Then ask better questions"
Kentaro falls to the ground as he pouts like a toddler.
Kentaro: "You're not even a weeb, HOW ARE YOU GETTING THEM RIGHT?!"
Y/n: "I'm a genius, remember?"
Kentaro: "*sighs* Right.. But if life was like an anime, I'd be the protagonist that works hard to surpass the genius, you know? They do say hard work beats talent"
Y/n: "But this is real life. Life isn't a movie, game or anime. Talent that trains will always triumph the talentless that works hard"
Kentaro: "Wow, you didn't have to say though"
Y/n: "I'm merely preping you for the world outside these school walls. Remember to learn what you can"
Kentaro: "I know, I know"
Y/n: "Do you really?"
Kentaro: "Yes.. Is that your ride?"
Outside the gates, a guard was patiently standing beside his vehicle while the rest awed at the site.
Y/n: "It is"
I rise up as Kentaro follows me.
Kentaro: "Must be amazing to have a ride back home instead of walking"
Y/n: "I suppose"
He looked my way and chuckled.
Kentaro: "Man, I wish I had it like you sometimes. A genius and wealth"
"You don't even know how much you'd dread it if you had it"
Y/n: "Money and power doesn't make everything better"
Kentaro: "But it can ease the burden ya know? Having said that, I'm gonna work real hard until I reach your heights one day"
I stay quiet as I let him believe the lies he's talking. No amount of warning can change a person's desire for supremacy over others, whether it's monetary, materialistic, or strength.
Kentaro: "In that case, I better get going as well. Catch you tomorrow at the same place?"
Y/n: "You barge in of your own accord"
Kentaro: "You like it anyways. See ya tomorrow Y/n"
He leaves as I walk up to the vehicle and am escorted back to my house.
"I like it, huh?"
Well, I can't say that I hate his presence. While he brings nothing of knowledge that I could use in my everyday life or future, he does seem to challenge that which I knew nothing of.
Y/n: "I'm starving. Is dinner ready?"
Guard: "Yes it is"
Y/n: "Good"
I could feel his gaze aimed at me through the mirror. A slight bit of nervousness was visible but I didn't want to bother asking. I waited for his response to come to me instead.
Guard: "Mr. L/n said he'll be away for a few weeks on a business meeting and Mrs. L/n won't be here for a while either"
Y/n: "That so?.. Call for the maids and butlers that take a break at that time to the dining table"
Guard: "As you wish"
This was something I was used to as well. My parents normally are off unless it's something huge where they get to show their prodigal child. The table is usually lonely without them around, even if that warmth comes with the price of them simply asking about things other than what I prefer.
Whenever they aren't around, I began to call those who work for us and ask that they eat with me. It beats being alone even if some use it to try and get something out of it. I give out what they desire in return for just having someone to talk to.
Y/n: "What are we having?"
Guard: "Italian, Mr. L/n"
Y/n: "Thank you"
I seat myself down at the head of the table while my employees sit down to enjoy their meals. I make small talk with those who speak with me while dinning on the meal prepared for me. All in all, I'm thankful for atheist having someone by my side.
After dinner was done, I go to my room and study for a bit more for what's to come tomorrow.
"The same cycle, over and over. I dislike it, personally. However, I got no real say in it. I'm told what's best for me, a genius, so I must do what I have to. Sacrifice the laughs, friendships, for the path to victory. I stand above all in brilliance"
I could feel my eyes starting to waver as my mind tells me to rest.
"I am.. a genius. I am.. a prodigy. I am.. gifted.. I..."
Despite all of that nonsensical spouting.. I guess the real me that laid dormant began to crawl out.
Y/n: "Want to be normal.."
And with that, my daily life comes to a close. In 8 hours, I'll awaken once more and repeat it again, and again, and again, and again, and again..
If I could make a wish upon a star (If I can make a wish upon a star), I'd wish to have the life that he had (I'd wish to have the life that he had), No more cycles (No more poverty), No more lies (No more pain), I just want.. (I just want..), a normal life.
My eyes suddenly shoot open as a flash of color surrounds me. I'm unable to move as I see shapes all around my bed. 8 flames light up in each corner as I could hear a voice call out to me.
"HELP!!!"
I yell but my voice falls of deaf ears. No, it's more like it just doesn't come out in general. I could feel a powerful force slowly dragging me down into the bed.
"MOTHER!!! FATHER!!! HELP!!!"
As I call for my parents, a daunting thought fills my head. Would my parents even really care if I'm gone? Not in the sense of their child disappearing, but the crown jewel of the family that they show off. I clench my teeth as tears suddenly flow out, not of fear, but of sadness and anger. Sadness because I was probably never viewed as a child, and anger at the world for never knowing what a loving embrace was.
"Mother.. Father.."
I try to fight against it as I dig my fingers into the bed.
"HELP!!! THE PROJECT YOU'RE SO PRIDEFUL OF IS GETTING TAKEN AWAY!!!"
I shut my eyes as I take a breath of air and am dragged into the darkness.
..
...
"Open your eyes boy"
I could hear a voice trying to speak to me but I was unsure of what to do.
"You must open your eyes. Following orders is what you do, correct?"
Y/n: "..."
I open my eyes as I find myself in a room with a older looking man in front of me.
??: "As I thought. You were the right person as I'm sure the other was too"
He had an aura of power that made it impossible for me to gaze him in the eyes. As if he'd decapitate me in the blink of an eye if I managed to offend him in the slightest.
Y/n: "R.. Right person.. for what?"
??: "My brother and I have grown bored of our little play. We desired something different, something new"
He points to me as he cracks a smile.
??: "And that's where you come in, boy. You will be given a powerful trait, but it will come with its drawbacks"
Y/n: "Drawbacks?"
??: "*chuckles* Yes. It's fun to see people struggle~"
Y/n: "I still don't get it though, what you are saying is just not making sense!! Where am I?! Who are-?!"
I'm suddenly close to throwing up as he releases a burst of power that I can't begin to describe. The man looked upset as he only tapped his finger on the table.
??: "Who said you can raise your voice at me?"
Y/n: "I-I apologize!!"
He stood up and walked over to my side as I could sense my life flashing before my eyes.
??: "You respond to me when I ask you to speak. You do not raise your voice under any circumstances, am I clear, boy?"
Y/n: "Yes sir!! I apologize!!"
He releases the weight off of me as he picks me up by the back of my collar.
??: "As I said, you are merely here to entertain me.. They called you a genius? Well then, put that brain to use. I'll be sending you to my brother and I's playground. Struggle and put on a good show for us"
He began to drag me through the floor as I looked around the room for an escape.
??: "I'll be giving the trait of.."
He rolled 3 dice on the ground and caught my attention, stopping me from my struggle. 7s. He chuckled to himself as the dice disappeared and pick me off the ground.
??: "I guess it's your lucky day, boy~"
Y/n: "W-Why?!"
??: "You trait is [Mirror]. You can copy skills you've witnessed and use them. Having said that, I added a demerit. Every time you use it, it goes down a rank. Sounds like a pretty funny detrimate, don't you think?"
Y/n: "Huh?!"
He walks off the balcony as I see the void of space in front of me. Below, the world was about the size of a football.
Y/n: "W-Wait!!"
??: "I'm sure my brother has already sent his warrior. Let me tell you this so you can grasp what the idea of this play is. You are the villain in our story"
"Villain?"
??: "You will descend into this world and become the antagonist to this world's hero. You will be this world's enemy. Do you understand what I mean?"
Y/n: "NO!!-"
??: "Good enough for me~"
He releases his grip on my shirt as I fall down, my thoughts focused on trying to survive the fall from space.
Y/n: "AAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!"
As I continued to fall to certain death, all I could think about was, "Why me?". All I ever wanted was to have a simple life, a normal family, and a peaceful home. So, why did I have to go through all of this to have what I desire?
As I inched closer to the ground, I tried to think of something to save myself. My mind reached the depths of my memories but came out futile from the fear of death. I guess even fear can block the brain of a genius in times of need.
"This is it. Goodbye.."
I closed my eyes and waited for the impending landing. The inevitable took its time it seemed. The sound of the wind racing past my ears as my body broke through the upper layers of the atmosphere slowly faded. My face was suddenly met with the feeling of multiple little leaves poking at my nose and cheeks. I slowly opened my eyes to find myself on the ground in the middle of a park.
Y/n: "Where.. am I?"
I find it full of people while a sort window beside me showed me some important messages.
Y/n: "Huh?"

Y/n: "So it wasn't some sick joke after all?.."
I notice something next to it, goals.

Y/n: "WHAT THE HELL?!"
2) Destroy the God of Light's heroic warrior.
3) Put on a grand scale battle (Win or Lose, option is available but one must perish)
I feel a knot in my stomach as I have to come to terms with what I'm tasked.
Y/n: "I must.. take a life?"
If the villain triumphs, you will be awarded a wish of your choosing. Do well, dear Villain.
I'm nervous as I look around once again.
Y/n: "Tell me, where am I?"

"Rank up? How the hell am I supposed to do that?"
I could sense the night setting in and a chilly breeze hit me. I needed a place to stay.
Y/n: "Kuoh is still in Japan. Which means my currency should still work"
I pull out my wallet and find that I have roughly 30k yen. I usually have everything in my bank account, but I'm sure that won't be of use in another world.
Y/n: "Should I attend school or something? No, regardless. I need to find a place to stay at but.."
This won't last me too much. I got to do something to take care of myself. Having said that, it's not like I know how to handle everything on my own. As much as I claim to be a genius, Culinary Arts were never my strong suit. Is it just instant Ramen every day?
Y/n: "No. I'm a genius individual. I have to excel at everything. I will figure out how to feed myself"
I get up and immediately get hit with dread at my situation. A part of me just wants to scream and cry because of what I'm having to deal with, but..
Y/n: "I can't just let myself give up. It's life and death now. I've been alone all my life and I must take this challenge head on.. I'm a genius after all"
I continue to call myself that, but I am still just a 17 year old boy. I wasn't preped to handle everything on my own without financial support.
I take my first step in this new yet familiar world with the simplest goal in mind. Survive.
Y/n: "I will not fall to fear anymore than I already have. I must make it out. However.."
You must kill the enemy.
Y/n: "No. Whatever it takes to see another day"
I arrive at a food stall and see steamy hotdogs freshly made, which is something I always wanted to try.
Y/n: "Vender food.. Hmm.."
I look at my money and contemplate.
Y/n: "Already getting temptations to spend it?"
I walk over to it and look at all the items on the menu as the feeling of my mouth salivating snapped me out of it.
"Restraint Y/n.. Restraint"
I walk away from there for a few steps before stopping and turning back.
Y/n: "I'm the villain in this story. Villains do not adhere to rules. They take what they want.."
I could feel my hand shaking as I psyche myself into taking the food and booking it.
"No, there's too many people here. I'll get caught in no time"
My stomach growled as I open the window and see my skills once more.
Y/n: "... It can't be helped"
I walk over to the vendor and get his attention.
Vendor: "What can I do for ya kid?"
A bill was placed on his hand as I go back on my thoughts.
Y/n: "2.. 2 hot dogs please"
Vendor: "Sure thing. Let me know how you want em"
As much as I wanted to play my part, doing this on someone of no fault for my circumstances.. it just doesn't feel right.
I searched everywhere in Kuoh to find the cheapest place to rest. Luckily for me, someone was renting a small shack behind his apartment lot at a very small price. It had restroom accommodations and even a shower, but lacked pretty much everything else.
Y/n: "I guess this is home for now"
I turn on the light and set up some blankets I found outside in a dumpster on the ground. They were pretty thick, so it should cover me from the wooden floorboards underneath. I had already used quite the sum of cash on just the first day, so a job is a must at this point.
Y/n: "10k yen on this place for the month, few coins on the washer and dryer, and the rest on food and items"
I had exactly 15k left. I had gone to the market and bought cheap items to eat with, mainly canned food and instant ramen, basic hygiene items, a small backpack, and a pillow.
Y/n: "There's plenty of wood outside so I could just build a fire and cook that way.. I need to figure out how to do it, though. "
I pull out a hunter's magazine I took when nobody looked and read through it. If I was gonna be staying in this place, I needed to understand how to survive with my basic essentials until I had a proper job that pays me well enough to have a decent place.
After putting everything away, I looked at the sky outside and take in everything I went through. I was kidnapped from my home, forced to partake in an activity against my will, thrown out from space, landed with a bit of pocket money, found a terrible shack and now lay down on someone's old blankets that were in the dumpster. In the end, I was alone again.
Y/n: "Fuck.."
The frustration of being by myself again set in as tears began to stream down my face. I didn't mind being stuck in the place that I was in, as long as I had someone there. Someone who didn't just use me to gain something.
Y/n: "Window.."
I look back at my skills and notice the 2nd skill once again.
Y/n: "..."
I lay back silently as I debate on what I could possibly be getting out of it. Summoning, could it be something like a mythical beast? But it says [VILLAIN] on it.
Y/n: "What villains could possibly spawn from this world?"
I think of the world destroying Trihexa as the first option.
"If that spawns, I'd need direct control over it or it's bye bye for me too"
As I continue to think, my eyes slowly begin to give up as a wave of exhaustion hits me like a train. Without really having much of an option, I'm forced to fall asleep.
..
...
....
*birds chirping*
The noise make their way to my ears as they signal me that a new day has arrived. As I look up to my wooden and beat up roof, I notice that there are some potential leak spots that I'd have to let the landlord know of.. or do it myself incase he asks me if I'm ungrateful to even get something so cheap to begin with.
Y/n: "*sighs* Well, I guess it's time to look for a job?"
I get up, go to the bathroom and brush my teeth while thinking about what to say if I'm asked for my ID and stuff.
??: "Do not worry yourself with that, boy"
I stop what I was doing as I hear that voice again. I felt a shiver down my spine as every hair in my body stood up.
??: "I've taken the liberty of forging your existence onto this world for you. You should thank me, foolish boy"
I am unable to respond or move as I sense it still there.
??: "This will be the last time I speak to you unless you ask for my presence. You should follow your script"
My window opens as a new goal is inscribed onto my goals.
"Attend school with the protagonist?"
??: "If you fail me in entering, I shall punish you for it"
Y/n: "B-But what about making money to survi-?!"
As I turn around, they are gone. I was alone once again as I take in many deep breaths to try and relax.
Y/n: "So.. I have to go back to school still? What kind of.."
I hear a knock at the door which breaks me out of my deep thoughts. At the door, I see the landlord looking at me with a look of pity.
Landlord: "How was the first night?"
Y/n: "Um.. good.. I guess"
He peeks inside and notices the old blankets and sighs. He reaches into his pocket and pulls out his phone.
Y/n: "Um-"
Landlord: "Gimme a sec will ya?"
He looks at something and shoots me a curious stare. He rubs his chin for a bit as he thinks a little harder.
Landlord: "How old are you kid?"
Y/n: "17 sir"
Dammit, should I have lied about my age? What if he thinks I just ran away from home or something? I-
I stop myself as I see a look in his eyes that I'm all too familiar with. The gaze of someone who wants something from me.
Landlord: "Say kid, I'll make you a deal. You go to school right? What rank are ya~?"
Y/n: ".. Number 1"
Landlord: "Really?! What are you doing here then if you-"
Y/n: "Parents never looked at me as a child, but a prize to show off to others. I ran away because I want to achieve what I want"
Landlord: "R-Really now? You know, I had a kid of my own too. I loved her dearly until her mother took her away. Fucking bitch"
He walked over to me and put an arm around my shoulder while giving me the sly smile of a man who desired something.
Landlord: "Look, I'm a very honest to good man. Don't worry yourself about the rent. It's not like this place is much of a home to begin with"
Y/n: ".. What do you want out of it?"
Landlord: "Nothing much, I just care for the youth of this country to continue to strive for the greatness that they are capable of. Nothing more, I swear.."
"Here it comes"
Landlord: "Just make sure you don't forget about this old man that was kind enough to give you a place to stay at, will ya?"
He's using me.. but I suppose I should as well. That's what this world is after all. A world where you are used and you use.
Y/n: "Of course. You helped me out.."
Landlord: "That's a good kid!! Well, I'll leave you then. Make sure to study well boy and make your dreams a reality!! Make lots of mone- make lots of friends!!"
He leaves as I look back at the window.
Y/n: "Go back to school huh?"
I close the door and scratch my head as I think about where I could possibly go to.
Y/n: "I really should just find a job instead but.."
"Attend school with the protagonist huh?.."
I will be going to school with the person that will become my rival. I must prepare myself incase my identity is found out.
Y/n: "Hold on, I'm in DxD. So the protagonist is.. Issei Hyoudou"
I look outside the only window I have and see the school a few blocks away.
Y/n: "Man, what are the odds of it being this close by?.. I need to sign up too"
I grab a cup of ramen and head out as I realize how unprepared I am. No school bag, uniform, utensils, or even a valid ID. How exactly am I going to-
..
...
Principal: "Alrighty Mr. L/n. You are set. Welcome to Kuoh Academy"
Y/n: "Um.. thank you principal"
"Just like that huh?.."
I bow, take the uniform, utensils, and schedule before exiting the room with a dumbfounded look on my face.
Y/n: "That person really did make this more simple for me"
I don't know how to feel about how simple that was but I tread towards class. I was nervous as I had a fair idea of what was to come. A novel I read was now my reality. I have to come to terms with it and play my part.
I arrive at the door and take a deep breath as I try to think of what to say. I could hear the class still in session so I knew my presence was sure to cause a commotion.
*knock*
Teacher: "Come on in"
I slide the door open and walk in as the teacher tilts his head, confused as to why a random boy walked into his class. I hurry over to him and hand him my schedule.
Teacher: "What is this?... Ah, I see"
He turns to the class and clears his throat before grabbing their attention.
Teacher: "Students, rodents and idiots. It seems we have a new student in our class. Please, give him a warm welcome. Introduce yourself kid"
I take a step forward and compose myself.
Y/n: "My name is Y/n L/n, it's nice to meet you all. I hope we can get along"
The class suddenly begins to talk amongst themselves regarding my existence. As I expected after reading this book. The boys are unhappy that it isn't a female student and the girls seem to find me fairly attractive. I see that the story hasn't changed at all with my presence.
Y/n: "Hm?"
I look at an empty seat that should be filled right now.
Teacher: "Please, have a seat in one of the unused desks"
Y/n: "Ah, yes"
I walk over to the seat next to Issei's and ponder about where he would be.
"Surely he should be here now, right?"
Could he have already been taken by Rias? I'm not sure what part of the story I would be in but I would guess that I'd be at the start no? Starting a tale from the beginning would just be odd.
I take out the books I was handed by the principal and pick the one for this class. I try to focus but my curiosity about where the protagonist is never left my brain.
"This is all pretty simple stuff anyways"
After the bell rang for lunch, I was surrounded by a few of the students who asked me more about myself. I made short chats with them before heading off to cook my meal.
Y/n: "Did not think I'd be mobbed like that. Guess it's just what every new kid experiences"
I suddenly feel a gaze behind me. I kind of had an idea of what it would be but I didn't think I'd be this early.
Y/n: "How cliché"
I make my way towards the stairs as I'm called for. I turn around to see a group of 4 approach me.
??: "Yo new kid, how's it going?"
Bullies. The most cliche and most frustrating part of any story. I despised them even in my world. Thankfully, due to my name, I was free from them even touching me. That said, things ain't the same right now.
Y/n: "Yes?"
Bully: "Hey there. I'm Asuma from the same homeroom. How about we get to know each other better, ey?"
My eye twitches a bit as he extends his hand to me. I got 2 options with 2 different results. I shake his hand and am forced to be his bitch or get punched to assert dominance. 2, I refuse his hand and get beat up or am threatened before beaten up.
"Regardless, I'm fucked"
Asuma: "You're a pretty smart kid from what I saw, how about we become friends?"
That fucking smile.. someone who wants something. My eyes naturally glared at him which he picked up on.
Asuma: "Oi, what's with the glare? I'm just trying to welcome you idiot"
He was furious as his friends began to hype him up. My natural hatred for his kind glared at him without me realizing it.
Y/n: "Dammit!!"
He tried running towards me until I threw my ramen on his face, distracting him momentarily while I escaped upwards.
"Wait, why towards the roof?!"
Asuma: "NEW BOY!!!"
Y/n: "FUCK!!! I must commit to it"
I sprinted with everything I got as the bullies chased me. I could feel the rest of the students either laugh at my situation or look away in case they got caught up in the mess as well.
Y/n: "Why does my day just have to start off shit too?! Is this shit just fated for villains?!"
Yes, that's got to be why. Villains don't get happy beginnings or endings. I have to suffer from the start too.
Y/n: "Curse this stupid luck!!"
I breach the door and run to the center, knowing of my certain beating that is coming.
Y/n: "Dammit!!"
Asuma: "Y/N!!!"
He finally arrived as I turn around and brace myself. A 4 V 1 was not the most ideal situation to be in.
"Find a way out of this"
Asuma: "I'm about to beat your ass new boy"
Y/n: "I hate people like you the most. Brute force assholes who want to beat people up just because they have the power to do so"
Asuma and his gang quickly ran over to me all at once as I try to go out swinging. It lasted a few punches and kicks before I began to get pummeled by them. I was always protected by others, but that isn't the case here. I was alone in famly and on my own without protection. All I could do now was take their punches and kicks while curled up in a ball.
Asuma: "Take this!!"
I was getting stomped as I thought about the perks if I died here. Perhaps I'd be able to return home.
Y/n: "..."
Home. Back to my bed. Back to.. but, won't they just win if that happens?
Asuma: "You bastard!!"
If I give up, won't they have won? Giving these idiots something to smile about.. somehow just boils my blood.
"This is a villain's origin story, isn't it?"
I was pulled up by the hair as Asuma rolled his sleeves up.
Asuma: "You did this to yourself L/n. I'm just teaching you the lesson. Hraah!!'
I was struck across the face as my blood strikes the ground.
Asuma: "You are supposed to listen to what I tell you to do, got it?!"
He lands another punch as he and his boys laugh.
Asuma: "You got no say in what happens now. You do as I say and don't question it, got it~?"
I look at him as he has that same smirk.
Asuma: "I'm just looking out for you. Just do what I say and follow orders, got it?"
Y/n: ".. Even in another world, I hear those words again?"
I whisper to myself. I've had enough of being used. His friends release me as I see just how much blood leaked from my mouth and nose. The window opens up to show me my skills once again.
Y/n: "Summon.."
Asuma: "Hm?"
Y/n: "Whoever you are.. beat the life out of my enemies"
Asuma: "Huh?"
The brute grabs me by the front collar of my shirt as he glares at me while cocking back his fist once again. I stand my ground without showing a glimpse of remorse for what I've done.
Summons left: 0/1 [4 LOCKED]
Y/n: "Bastards like you don't deserve a second chance.."
Asuma: "Wanna run that by me you little-"
Suddenly, his arm drops which causes his friends to look pale. Asuma looks down to see his arm was broken and turning a completely different direction it shouldn't be.
"Do I feel.. heat radiating from behind me?"
Asuma: "Wha-?!"
He's stopped from saying anything as a pole smashes into his mouth, breaking every teeth he had and knocking him out. He collapses onto the ground and releases me as I hear the sound of heels clicking on the ground.
??: "*giggles* So, you're the one who summoned me then huh?"
I slowly pick myself up as I glare at the rest of them.
??: "Oi master, don't tell me you're about to give them mer-?"
Y/n: "I told you to beat the life out of them didn't I? I meant, ALL of them"
??: "Ho? Ahahaha!!! I like you already. Well then, allow me to finish up then"
I walk towards Asuma as the sound of my servant breaking every single one of them was heard in the background. I look down to him as I could hear him trying to apologize.
Y/n: "I guess I'm the bully now, don't you think? Those with power only fear what's greater than them. You get what I'm saying?"
I turn back around to see that the person I summoned had broken most of their bones and was now in front of me.
??: "So, tell me, are you my master or something?"
The sound of her steel armor told me she was very much real. She was someone with incredible strength and with the sword at her hip, probably skilled in swordsmanship.
Y/n: "I am. What's your name?"
Jeanne: "Jeanne. Jeanne D'Arc Alter. Let's get along, master~"
