Life Of A Nobody - as a Villain



As Rio raised the vial to his lips, he could feel a sense of anticipation coursing through his veins. According to the system, this healing potion, with its promises of restoration and tranquility, held the potential to mend the fractures within his weary mind. 

He had taken many healing potions and other soothing pills but nothing seemed to be working. He had no doubts about those potions and pills as they were either made by Blake family or placed for the protagonist, but even they weren't able to fix anything. 

He still had doubts thinking what he would do if this didn't work, but he took a chance hoping all those system novels didn't lie when they said - that system stuff is always legendary. 

With a deep breath, he tilted the vial, allowing the blood red elixir to cascade onto his tongue.

The moment the potion touched his tongue, a gentle warmth spread through his body, soothing his senses and enveloping him in a cocoon of serenity. It was as if a soft, ethereal breeze caressed his mind, gently nudging away the lingering shadows of distress and uncertain doubts. 

With each passing second, Rio could feel the potion working its magic within him. It was as if invisible hands delicately patched up the broken fragments of his thoughts, weaving them back together with intricate care. The fog that once clouded his mind began to dissipate, replaced by a newfound clarity and focus.

A wave of calmness washed over him, as if his entire being had been gently cradled in the arms of tranquility. The weight that had burdened his thoughts was lifted, replaced by a profound sense of peace. It was as if the potion had whispered something to his troubled mind, urging him to let go of the turmoil that had plagued him, haunted him. 

Rio's expressions transformed before his own eyes. The furrowed lines on his forehead eased, replaced by a smoothness that reflected a release of tension. The worry that had etched itself into the corners of his eyes slowly dissipated, replaced by a newfound brightness and clarity. 

With his mind now healed, Rio felt a renewed sense of clarity and purpose. The jumbled thoughts and uncertainties that had once weighed him down were now replaced by a resolute determination. 

It was more than just the mending of broken thoughts; it was a transformation of his very being. The potion had granted him a respite from the tumultuous storm that had raged within, allowing him to emerge stronger, calmer, and ready to face whatever lay on the horizon.

'Awakening, blessing, system and now this - everything went perfect' 

'I can finally focus on getting stronger and getting my answers.'

In that moment, as Rio stood bathed in the gentle glow of the potion's healing embrace, he whispered a silent thank you to the being that had given him this potion. 

[So it worked huhh] The system asked. 

"It did. Let me check." Rio replied with a bright smile. 

[How will you possibly check that? Ohh don't answer it] System wanted to ask but then sighed and stopped itself as it understood what this host was planning to do. 

"I had to get haunted and tortured by the guy I hate the most, all this time whenever I slept. At Least now maybe I can take my peaceful sleep again."

"If I see him after I sleep today, then that means this potion failed, it's simple." Rio said in simple terms, he missed his time in the darkness as that was the last time when he had a peaceful sleep. 

[You know, you're just being lazy] System said, trying to break the bubble of excuses its host used to justify his laziness. 

"Oh I forgot to ask , where are we?"

[This is the system space, it _ ]

"Then why is it so dark" Rio said cutting off the system's explanation. 

[That's because of you, it can be whatever you wish it to be, of course if I agree to that request.]

[You can come here whenever you want to talk with me. And you'll be transported here when you're sleeping or unconscious in the outside world.]

"So I'm trying to sleep, while my body is already asleep." Rio said. 

'That's confusing' Rio thought as he remembered, that he was probably unconscious in the outside world after his awakening. 

[Yupp, that's weird.] 

[You've been here for an hour now, so maybe you should wake up.]contemporary romance

"Naah I should check that potion's effects first."

"Good night system."

[😪😴😴💭 useless]

Ignoring the obvious emojis in his status screen that followed his sweet wishes, Rio closed his eyes and slept. 

After all this time - today he finally his first peaceful sleep in Arcadia. 

Soon enough a gentle smile graced his lips, mirroring the tranquility that now resided within his soul.

While he slept, the system tried to do a scan of his body and mind to see if there was anything that was abnormal about him.

(A normal mortal would never get into his eyes) 

(I just need to learn what is your secret) 

System stopped its search midway, as it thought if that being would be angry because of it, but then it continued the process. 

[He knows my habits too well, but since he still sent me to help him, he must've not cared about it.]

(Right, and besides he might be watching me right now, so he would've stopped if it was wrong) System thought, and continued the process. 

After the scan was complete, the system checked the results, but it couldn't believe what it saw. So it did the scans again, this time more thoroughly but the results were the same. 

Even though it was proud of its skills and powers, for the first time since the beginning of its creation - it doubted itself. Cause that was better and more believable than doubting that being. 

(Is there something wrong) 

(Is he playing with me and him) 

(How is this possible) 

The results were simple, they were the same as before Rio took the potion, or when the system scanned him back in the real darkness after his death. 

*A mortal soul with a broken brain*. This time it showed the status for Rio's body but overall it was the same. 

(Did that potion fail) 

(But I could feel it work though, even he felt the same and is peacefully sleeping now) System thought as it looked at Rio's sleeping face. 

(So what is wrong here) 

 "Don't lose in his mind" The words of that being rang in the system's mind again but this time with a totally different meaning. 

(It can't be)

(It shouldn't be possible _ )
