My Evil System-Chapter 5 What? A Handsome Man?
?Along the way to Euclid village, I passed by a group grinding some monsters along the vast grass field. Mostly the youth who couldn't wait to try out their newly found powers.
Well . . . they were not really monsters. More like animals with weird features like horns or fangs and sharp claws. They were kinda cute, though.
I felt kind of pity for them. They were minding their business when suddenly a group attacked them out of nowhere. It was a good thing that I was not motivated to grind since I wouldn't get any EXP.
Though the drops . . .
Come to think of it. Are monsters going to attack if they see me?
<No. Hosts need to be in their range to initiate a battle.>
I made sure to stay on the dirt path between the vast plain of grass on one side and the lush forest on the other side.
Wait . . . can we attack each other?
<Yes. Players can kill players. It's an evil eat evil world out here>
That's bad news. I was never confident with my fighting skills.
Come to think about it. How do we fight here?
<It mostly depends on your innate fighting abilities combined with your ATP (attributes).>
So that meant . . . bad news for me since all I knew were brawls.
<Host's need only to level up your ATP and collect spells and skills, and you'll be undefeated!>
I ignored it.
I was curious, so I stopped and took a look. Mostly, the others swung their daggers and avoided the monster's attack. While others just cast their spells and skills, and I was amazed when a fire actually came out from their staff.
Apparently, the dagger and staff were the basic weapons after the class selection. And since the system gave my class, I didn't have a free weapon or armor to equip.
<Weapons and armors are for the weak. Evilness is embracing your flaws and vulnerability so others wouldn't exploit it. Hosts need only follow the system's quest, and you'll reign supreme in this world!>
. . . I don't understand a word that you said.
<Spanking a girl's butt is every man's dream. It's a weakness that anyone could exploit. Host's need only embrace his desire and weakness, and you're one step to becoming an Evil Overlord, the greatest Villain there is!>
Who told you that I wanted to spank a girl's butt?! And what do you mean weakness?
<The enemy need only flashed her butt for you to spank, and Hosts will immediately succumb to such desire. Tempering yourself early against such trickery is the path to becoming an Evil Overlord, the greatest Villain there is!>
That's . . . advance thinking. I couldn't deny it as I imagined it happening in my head. f𝘳𝚎𝑒𝚠𝑒𝚋𝘯o𝘃eƖ.co𝓂
I might have been dreaming about it, but I don't want to go and spank a girl's butt out of nowhere in order for me to get used to it! That would label me as a creep!
Not to mention a slap on the face. I would really be lucky if that were all I'd get.
I didn't even think about doing it on Soarsie because . . . that's just disrespectful and plain rude.
. . . Unless of course, if she wanted me to . . .
<Don't worry. When Host takes the handsome elixir, every woman will line for you to spunk their butt.>
. . . Is that so?
I shook my head.
I don't want it!
Talking to the system was taking years off my life.
<You need only become the Evil Overload, the greatest Villain there is, and you'll be immortal! You will be carved in every book and be the main Villain in every story to come. With just the sound of your demonic steps will send shivers to everyone's spine and it'll become a taboo just even uttering the first letter of your name.>
My dead eyes flung to the side as I released an audible breath. I wish that day would never come.
ClaAng!

My attention was stolen by a man who was soloing a wolf in the forest's side. The wolf wasn't big, but it was still scary.
Amazing. I thought as I observed him draw his dagger and slash it against his opponent. His movement was precise and practiced, and I bet he knew how to fight. He must be a martial arts expert or a sword practitioner in the real world.
It was evident from the way he held his blade and his graceful attacks like he was dancing in the air.
I wonder what his attributes were. I wanted to know since the wolf was . . . rather slow. Though it looked scary, I could follow its movement and predict its next attack.
Was it because of my attributes?
<Yes. At this stage, the Host's ATP is higher than the rest.>
I thought so.
I never finished high school, but I did pick up a life skill in my jobs at ordinary stores. It was calculating orders using the brain. In my line of work, I had to be fast in taking orders and calculating costs. Every second counts when customers line outside waiting in impatience for their items.
It was not even a second when they said their orders, and they'd immediately asked about the entire cost of their purchase.
Using mental computation, with the bonus EXP, everyone should have their attributes below 10. If there was higher than 10, then that meant that the other attributes were low.
As for me, all my ATP were already passed 10 except for my LCK, which was 10.
Then that meant . . . my face lit up. I could probably kill that wolf with a punch.
The man's dagger pierced the wolf's heart, and the wolf shattered into particles leaving drops of rewards on the ground.
Oh . . . there isn't actually blood. There wasn't even a gory part.
<Host can modify this setting in the menu to make the scene applicable for an Evil Overlord, the greatest Villain there is!>
<Please chose the PG level>
<General Audience>
<Game of Thrones>
". . ."
KyaAa!
My attention was flung to the fight when the man finished his enemy off. The dagger disappeared in his hand, and he faced the screaming ladies with a sparkling face while the background dimmed.
"You girls okay?" he said with a dazzling smile. His shoulder-cut golden hair was tied behind his back and a pair of striking blue eyes were mesmerizing on his sculpted face.
He was a good fighter and handsome to boot. I bet he'd instantly become famous in the future.
I heard one of the women call his name.
Lancelot.
Even his name sounded manly and handsome.
<Host need only take the Handsome Elixir, and you'll be a hundred times more handsome than anyone else.>
Being handsome is my least priority right now. I wanted to gather EXP and increase my ATP as soon as possible and find my family and Soarsie if they were here.
But the system was interfering with me. How would I gather EXP and increase my ATP without doing its ridiculous quests?
*sigh . . .
I grumbled under my breath and resumed onward to my destination.
