Villain Simulator-Chapter 95: Chaos Medium and Decisions
Step-step!
My footsteps caught the attention of the blonde beauty, who had been lazily reclining on the sofa in a red nightgown.
Her eyes shot open immediately, and she rose to her feet, turning towards me.
"Oh, you came. I was waiting for you."
"Daisy? Why didn’t you go to sleep?"
I asked, puzzled about her late-night presence.
In response, she glanced at Charlotte, a hesitant expression crossing her face.
Looking at her like that, my mind clicked. I understood what she wanted, and I lightly shook my head.
"There’s nothing to hide in front of Charlotte. I haven’t forgotten about your curse. But let’s have dinner first."
We then had our meal together in an awkward atmosphere, with Charlotte and Daisy exchanging subtle glances of displeasure at each other.
’Looks like they don’t like each other.’
I thought to myself, shaking my head inwardly.
There was too much on my plate already, and I didn’t have the time or patience to deal with their childish quarrel.
So, ignoring their silent feud, I finished my meal, and we made our way outside my room.
"Goodnight Charlotte."
"Goodnight Master."
Wishing me sweetly and glaring at Daisy, Charlotte got into her room, which was beside mine.
Daisy and I entered my room, and I closed the door behind us, turning my attention to her.
"I thought you would wait till tomorrow."
Today was the day I had to give Daisy a Chaos suppressant.
However, since I arrived late, I intended to address the matter the following day.
But Daisy’s unexpected wait for me caught me off guard, and I was puzzled.
"The curse shouldn’t be spreading so much that you could not wait for tomorrow, right?"
"... Yeah, not like that. I just... thought it was better to take it as soon as possible without delaying."
"Is that so?"
Hearing her excuse with those pauses in the middle, a strange light flashed in my eyes.
I moved towards her, lifted her chin up with my finger, and looked at her in the eyes.
"Were you missing me?"
My words immediately made Daisy flustered, and she stammered in response.
"W-who said? Don’t make assumptions on your own!"
"Then you weren’t missing me, and your curse can wait till morning."
I replied casually, removing my hand from her chin. I then pointed towards the door behind me and adopted a more serious tone.
"So, you can leave now. Also, call Charlotte when you leave for your room."
"I...."
Daisy opened her mouth with a baffled expression, then bit her lips, her face flushed. Finally, she mustered the courage to speak the truth.
"I... I was missing you."
As soon as she confessed, I moved swiftly, taking her into my arms.
"Woah~!"
Daisy let out a surprised exclamation.
"If that was the case, you should have said so from the beginning."
Then, without giving her a chance to respond, I pulled her closer and kissed her, first nibbling on her lower lip and then her upper one.
Soon, I savored them both and sucked her tongue, deepening our kiss and making her drink my saliva.
Muaaah~!
Finally, with a loud erotic sound, I broke the kiss.
"Sweet."
Complementing her, whose mind was still hazy from experiencing the lingering taste of my lips on hers, I picked her up and laid down on the bed.
"You won’t need suppressants anymore. I have gotten something better. I will now start curing your curse."
It was only after hearing those words and feeling the comfortable bed that she came to her senses.
Her curiosity piqued, and she exclaimed
"Is the potion finally ready?"
"No, it isn’t a potion, but something else. Well, let’s not waste time chatting around."
Pausing for a moment, I retrieved a blue Rubik’s Cube-like object from my system storage.
Naturally, it wasn’t an ordinary Rubik’s Cube but a special device I had bought during my shopping trip with Charlotte.
[Mana Battery (Rechargeable)]
Just as the name suggested, it was a device to store Mana.
These devices came in various sizes, shapes, and forms, ranging from stones and bricks to toys, but I had specifically selected this one.
Mana batteries didn’t allow the user to absorb mana directly when needed due to the clash of different concepts.
However, they did enable users to store their own mana within the device, which could then be utilized in various ways, such as powering artifacts, enhancing weapons, conducting experiments, and more.
My plan was straightforward: I intended to use [Chaos Medium] to gradually transfer Daisy’s Chaos energy into this mana battery.
Obviously, this was a risky endeavor, as the device was primarily designed for storing mana, and introducing Chaos energy could make it extremely unstable.
’But that is exactly what I want, and the more unstable it is, the better, hehe.’
Chuckling to myself and explaining to Daisy what I was about to do, I untied her gown from the front, allowing it to slide down on both sides.
Her firm boobs, defying gravity, appeared in front of me with their nipples erect.
There was also a large black mark that was spreading from her heart, like vessels, but I ignored it all and pressed my right hand on the valley between her breasts.
Right at the origin of that black mark.
It was the location of Daisy’s heart, beating erratically.
Without wasting time, I took the [Mana Battery] in my left hand and focused.
[Skill Activated: Chaos Medium]
My skill activated, and an otherworldly sensation surged within me.
Under my hand, I could instinctively feel the wild Chaos energy inside Daisy.
Even when I used the Chaos Ritual, I never experienced Chaos energy in such a way.
It was like an energy of origin—a force that held everything—as if something that couldn’t be tamed or controlled.
Sensing it in that way was a mind-boggling experience, but fortunately, before I could become too entrapped by it,
[Ding! Skill: Mental Resistance (passive) is in effect.]
[Trait: Pride (A) refuses to bow down to Chaos energy]
[Trait: Composure (A) nullifies the Chaos’s effect on the host]
My skills and traits kicked in, allowing me to break free from the entrapment.
Phew~!
I inwardly breathed in relief, though on the outside my demeanor remained unchanged.
To be honest, I was already aware of this phenomenon since it also happened to Richard in the novel.
He had to struggle with it because he didn’t have compatible skills, but I was different.
Coincidentally, I had these traits and skills, and I was confident in them.
’Let’s focus back.’
With a clear mind, I urged the Chaos energy inside Daisy’s heart, directing it toward me.
It responded as if drawn to me and passed through my body like a wild spark of electricity.
’Woah!’
Under my guidance, it then surged into the Cube, which was held tightly in my left hand.
The Cube absorbed the Chaos energy, vibrating wildly as its surface shimmered with a cyan blue light for a few minutes until...
"Done."
Beep!
Finally, it beeped, and I understood that the [Mana Battery] was full.
[Skill Deactivated: Chaos Medium]
I removed my hand, put the vibrating cube back into the System storage carefully, and turned my attention back to Daisy, who had already fallen unconscious because of the process.
’Well, at least now I can relax too without much hassle.’
Following that, I rushed towards the bathroom, took a refreshing shower, and, changing into comfortable pajamas, laid beside Daisy, calling in my head.
’Status.’
Ding!

Leveling up to 12 in a single day was satisfactory, but the meager 24 stat points I received from it made my eyebrows frown in displeasure.
Tsk!
I clicked my tongue inwardly.
Even in Daisy’s world, I got 3 free stat points per level, but this...
"It’s really shameful."
Nevertheless, something was better than nothing, so without hesitation, I immediately allocated them.
’Half in Agility and half in constitution.’
[Agility: 61 ⟶ 73]
[Constitution: 61 ⟶ 73]
In an instant, a cold current washed over my body, and I felt my joints crack and become loose.
My perception slowed for a split second before coming back to normal, and I took a deep breath.
"Hufff~!"
Feeling my senses getting back to normal, I relaxed in bed and closed my eyes, remembering a memory from the past—words of Seo-ah as she recited some data from the internet for my novel.
—Remember Leo. The critical elements in war are speed and adaptability. The ability to move and make decisions faster than the enemy.
—Speed is naturally your Agility, and adaptability is your Constitution.
That day, her words confused me, so I asked.
"Wouldn’t adaptability be Intelligence? Making my decision faster?"
But to this end, all she did was shake her head. Her next words still linger in my mind to this day.
—A body that can adapt to every situation will give you more options to choose from. It’s always better than just making your thought processing speed faster.
—Not to mention, increasing Intelligence wouldn’t suddenly make you a Super Computer. But increasing Constitution with Agility will still enhance your thought process while making your body better, more adaptable, and more resilient.
She flashed a meaningful smile.
—So which one is better, darling?
....
The night passed, and the next day came without any shocks.
Surprisingly, not long after, I received a call from my father, who had reconsidered my plan.
He informed me that due to a significant increase in Monster Cores flooding the market, he had decided to double the amount of Monster Cores that he initially intended to provide me.
’I got lucky once again.’
It seemed that increasing my Luck stat had made me incredibly lucky, but I never anticipated it would have such a profound impact.
My luck was great, yet the only thing it did was make my mood all the more gloomy.
But I knew that dwelling on it wouldn’t benefit me in any way.
’The upcoming event is inevitable if I have to get the cheat called Rachael and save her life.’
With that in mind, I pushed aside my worries, resolved to prepare more thoroughly, and headed towards the dining room.
’Huh? What’s this?’
There was an awkward atmosphere surrounding the dining table.
Rachael and Charlotte were on one side, while Sharon and Daisy were on the other side of the table.
It was an unusual set-up since usually Rachael sat with Sharon and Daisy by her side.
’Weren’t these two being the best sisters until just yesterday?’
Various questions popped up in my head, but I decided not to ask and sat on the head seat, and before the breakfast began, I turned to Sharon.
"Ms. Sharon."
"Yes, Young Master."
"From today on, you will be staying with Daisy, taking her to dungeons of appropriate level, and helping her level up for the next 5 days."
Clank!
I had just finished speaking when the sound of a metal spoon falling on the plate resounded in the empty room.
It was Rachael’s spoon, and I immediately turned towards her.
"Rachael."
"Y...Yes."
She stuttered anxiously, but I responded without caring about it.
"If we include the night you had the nightmare, it’s already been 2-3 days since you started awakening, right?"
"Y...Yes, about that much."
"Good, you should be able to enter a dungeon now."
"Huh?"
Updat𝓮d from freewēbnoveℓ.com.
Rachael looked at me in confusion, but I ignored it once again and passed my order.
"It’s settled then, from today onwards, and for the next five days until you get completely awakened, you will be coming with me and Charlotte to experience the life of Player in Dungeon Cracks."
"What?!!"
