Villain Simulator-Chapter 124: No Longer Human!
Daisy left for her world, and I was left alone in my room.
Laying back on my bed, I gazed up at the familiar ceiling, lost in thought.
It had been nearly a week since the battle where I fell unconscious due to the fusion of the Chaos core with my body.
Upon awakening, I found myself in a hospital room, surrounded by my loved ones, including Charlotte, Daisy, Rachael, and even my father, who visited me for a few days until I returned home fully healed.
Discharged from the hospital just two days ago, the first thing I did was spend quality time with all of my girls. Shopping and hanging out with Rachael and Charlotte in the morning, followed by a passionate night with Rachael.
The next day, which was yesterday, I had intentions to spend time with Sylvia, who had successfully joined the Red Rose guild according to my instructions.
But then, considering her busy schedule with classes at the Magic Tower and guild affairs, I decided against meeting with Sylvia.
Instead, I called Daisy.
Daisy had suffered too much for me, receiving and enduring all those injuries from me during the battle and going through a lot of that stress all for my sake.
To be honest, she was given less credit for what she actually deserved.
So, before her departure, I made sure to reward her.
Consequently, since yesterday, we have been in my room fucking like beats. And now that she was gone, I couldn’t help but feel her absence keenly.
"Sigh! Spending time with someone truly develops affection. After all, I’m still somewhat human. Heh!"
I softly smirked to myself and shifted into a more comfortable position on the bed, reflecting on the aftermath of Rachael’s awakening this past week.
Not much happened, yet it felt like an eternity of events had unfolded.
Let’s not even get started on New York City, a quarter of which was completely wiped out—the two guilds we attacked also suffered significant losses.
They not only lost a huge amount of money and resources but also a considerable number of players. Some fell victim to Chaos monsters and our guild members, while others left after witnessing their guild’s downfall.
Shining Guild plummeted from being ranked 1st in the USA to the 20th rank, while Nightingale arrived on the brink of disbandment.
In stark contrast, our Vaiself Guild’s ranking soared, securing the position of the USA’s second-strongest guild.
Naturally, if we had wanted, we could have become the strongest guild immediately, but that came with its own hassle and suspicion.
My father also wisely decided to keep our increased strength a secret for the time being.
Due to this event, my position and speaking power increased considerably in the family, though I still had to return the [Book of Spells] to Mia, which was a bit of a shame.
But anyway, compared to what I gained, this much was nothing.
"Status."
I called out, summoning the familiar floating screen before me.

Right away, the first noticeable change was in my race and class.
Though my body remained unharmed, as the system had promised, the Chaos Core had brought about some major changes.
’I am now no longer a human.’
My hand instinctively moved to my solar plexus, where the Chaos Core silently operated.
The core not only altered my race but also transformed my class, from Nobility to a Chaos-related one.
As for the question marks in the status window, it wasn’t that the system couldn’t identify the changes. Rather, I was still undergoing transformation, and only upon completion would the final result be revealed.
Never before during the creation of this story had I made a scenario where a human acquired a Chaos Core, and it made this situation entirely unpredictable, even for me.
It was a huge change, shocking in its magnitude. Yet, strangely, I was calm, as if the matter of no longer being human was inconsequential, as if it were somehow… expected.
"Phew~!"
Taking a deep breath, I set that aside for the moment and focused on the next notable change, which was in my level and stats—the true spoils of war for me.
One had to remember that before this event, I was merely a level 30 player with stats comparable to level 80 or so.
But now...

"Hehehe."
No matter how many times I glanced at my increased stats, I couldn’t help but giggle with satisfaction.
My current level was 385, with my highest stat [Agility] at 483, rivaling that of someone above level 400.
In addition, just below [Agility], there was a new stat: [Chaos], unique to Chaos Creatures, which I now possess, and that too at 482 stat value.
The coexistence of mana and Chaos energy was a miraculous feat, but I knew it was likely facilitated by my trait [Revered Physique (S)] and skill [Dual Mana Stream], transforming an apparent impossibility into reality.
Thanks to the help of Chaos, even though my other stats lacked behind due to the low free stats per level given by class Nobility, I overall still had stats compared to a player that had just crossed the level 400 mark—the boundary that separated intermediate-level players from high-level players.
Regrettably, I gained no experience points from killing the giant eye of the Chaos Creature, as it was merely a projection of that Chaos Creature’s eye, not a genuine entity.
Furthermore, since none of the Chaos monsters among the hundred thousand I killed exceeded level 250, their collective experience points, no matter how high, could only elevate me to level 385—temptingly close to the 400 mark, which was the watershed.
Regardless, I was extremely satisfied with the results. It could be said that with one step, I have jumped to the sky.
"Even though I am not the strongest, I am no longer that weak guy I was when I came here. I have finally stood on my own two legs firmly in this world."
My right palm extended towards the ceiling, clenched in a tight fist, as if wanting to squeeze the whole world into its grasp.
But I knew it wasn’t possible.
"At least not yet."
Moving on, these weren’t the only changes, and although the level and stats were the main course, the dessert was still left for last.
With a smirk, I called out.
"System, show traits and skills."
The changes brought about by my Chaos Core were not limited to my Class and race but also extended to my traits and skills.

Indeed, just as the system showed, I no longer had the traits Composure (A), Pride (A), or Nobility (A) anymore; even the skill Mental Resistance had vanished.
More precisely, they had not vanished, but these four attributes, under the influence and pressure of the Chaos Core and Chaos energy, had instead combined to form another skill.
——[Skill: Indomitable]——
Description: It grants the user unparalleled mental and physical resilience while simultaneously bolstering their physical endurance and mental resistance against physical and mental attacks.
Remarks: There exists nothing in this cosmos that can break my will, for I am indomitable, the one who dares to look down even upon the gods.
————————————
It appeared to be a simple skill from the description, but the remarks painted an interesting, powerful picture of its true value.
The ability to withstand immense physical trauma, shrug off life-threatening injuries, and have immunity to despair, doubt, and intimidation, allowing the user to press forward against any odds, were just some of its applications.
But beyond that, the true horror of this skill, which was now mine, remained to be seen. Not to mention, since this was a skill and not a character trait, it was completely under my control.
Finally, I could freely express my emotions without any restrictions—cry, laugh, or enjoy.
I could do everything without any qualms while also maintaining a composure that would be unshakable regardless of the severity of the circumstances.
Moreover,
"Since this is a skill, it means I can take it with me to other worlds!"
Not just this skill, but also the Chaos Core skill. With their combination, I would be able to change my class in any world and cause even more chaos—so that I could comfortably navigate through turbulent waters and reap the maximum benefits.
"Hahahaha."
