Chapter 135: 134 Really sick of it (Please subscribe! Asking for Monthly tickets!)

Actually, it wasn’t just Shane; Lu Muya and Merica were also visiting the Royal Capital for the first time.

The two of them were really interested in the Royal Capital and were now surrounding Tielle, chattering and asking all kinds of questions.

“Tielle, like Sister Vivian, you were born in the Royal Capital, right?”

Merica asked curiously.

“Yes,” Tielle nodded and said indifferently, “Vivian has lived with President Riley since she was a child, as she and President Riley are childhood friends. I am two years younger than the two of them but had some interactions with them when I was little.”

“No wonder,” Lu Muya seemed to understand and said, “When Sister Vivian mentioned that our team would soon have a new member joining us for a long time, I thought there was some issue, but it turns out you knew each other from before.”

...

“You could say that,” Tielle replied indifferently, “After coming of age, President Riley was sent to Lamijion by her family for the purpose of experience and became the president of the adventurer’s guild. Vivian, being the same age and childhood friend of President Riley, went with her after reaching adulthood and became an adventurer. Two years later, when I came of age, wanting to be an adventurer as well, Vivian and President Riley invited me to Lamijion.”

This was why Vivian’s Team was established in Lamijion.

As for Lu Muya and Merica, the reasons they became adventurers in Lamijion were comparatively straightforward.

Updat𝓮d from freewēbnoveℓ.com.

Lu Muya had grown up in Lamijion and naturally chose to become an adventurer there, earning remuneration while caring for her seven younger sisters.

Merica sought to hone her magic skills and hence went to Lamijion to learn from a senior elf who had opened an inn exclusively for elves. Finally, under that senior’s persuasion, she chose to become an adventurer and continue to train herself.

Then, both Lu Muya and Merica happened to be exceptionally attractive, with not-so-weak innate potentials. If they were to just stay in the adventurer’s guild, it wouldn’t be surprising if they encountered trouble.

Therefore, President Riley, who had been paying attention to these two promising newcomers, recommended that Vivian recruit the two girls to form an adventurer team, as a covert way of protecting them.

Afterward, Tielle also received an invitation from Vivian and had joined the team upon arriving in Lamijion.

This was the origin of Vivian’s Team.

“So that’s how it is.”

Shane, who had been quietly listening by the side, now understood more about the team members’ backgrounds.

However, he chose not to interject.

The reason was quite simple, just by observing the behavior of the knights and adventurers accompanying them, it was apparent.

Including Leon and Udilis, the knights and adventurers traveling with Shane were maintaining a somewhat delicate distance from him, and glances of fear occasionally flickered in their eyes as they looked at him.

Shane knew that after the battle with Beddo, these people had developed a fear of him.

It was not just the fear of his strength but also fear of how Shane had brutally killed Beddo.

Shane himself had to admit that he had indeed been quite ruthless when dealing with Beddo, doing many things he would not normally do.

Usually, Shane’s limit was to spout words, merely verbally intimidating people, whether it was against the adventurers from the adventurer’s guild who came looking for trouble or against Killian.

But with Beddo, Shane simply couldn’t hold back.

There was no helping it—the attitude of Beddo was just too hateful.

“To start with ‘kill’ and end with ‘kill’, to talk about hanging heads on the city gates as if not regarding people as people, but treating them like animals that could be slaughtered at any moment—such villains, truly nauseating to watch.”

In the past, Shane had found this type of villain both hateful and lacking in class, yet they insisted they were high-class, acting as if they controlled everyone’s life and could kill someone without a glance, maintaining a composed facade as if deciding someone’s life and death was the mark of a true leader. But in the end, for whom were they putting on such a display?

Shane was very displeased, wishing he could properly slap him in the face and let him taste the bitterness of falling from the clouds.

And essentially, this was how Shane felt about these so-called villains.

Since ancient times, villainous characters merely wanted to see their enemies suffer and therefore would stop at nothing: they’d hurt those close to the foe, take hostages, use others’ principles and beliefs as a shield for themselves, and act recklessly, spinning the protagonists around in circles to the point of frustration, all while savoring their adversaries’ fruitless struggles.

Every time Shane saw such a plot, where the protagonists could only comply meekly under the threat of the villains, forced to act according to their demands, he felt extremely uncomfortable.

Even if justice ultimately prevailed and the protagonist’s friends were safe, as long as the author didn’t choose to torment the readers, no such distressing plots would emerge, but that was just focusing on the outcome.

Shane, who liked to put himself in characters’ shoes, actually found such cunning battles quite painful to watch.

Because of this, Shane didn’t want to be someone led by the nose by his own principles and beliefs; instead, he wanted to turn the tables and seek revenge.

Who said only villains could be cruel and ruthless?

Who said only adversaries could take pleasure in others’ pain?

Shane wanted to be the one feared by villains, feared to the extent that they wouldn’t dare touch the people around him, nor use any means to threaten him.

For this reason, Shane would show no mercy to these standard villains he found sickening.

Of course, if there appeared a villain with a charismatic personality like Thanos, Blue Dye, or Lu Lushiu (?) Shane might actually admire them.

In that regard, Shane was also affected by all sorts of clichés from his previous life, which molded him into who he was now.

For such a Shane, leading an average life might actually be a good thing.

Because you never know when he might do something unexpected.

Maybe, based on his human conscience, he would perform many good deeds.

Or perhaps, he would suddenly recall some unbearable cliché, and instead do something wicked.

In short, Shane’s thought processes were rather peculiar, otherwise how else would he have such strong adaptability to be reborn into this world?

Ordinary people wouldn’t think of stealthily defeating the Demon King, right?

So, keeping such a Shane from causing trouble for others was indeed a good thing.

Unfortunately, Shane was now in the Royal Capital, in a place akin to the center of this world. How many troubles he will stir up here, only God knows.

But regardless, Shane’s villainous style certainly frightened those traveling with him.

And if even they felt this way, regardless of Vivian and Tielle, wouldn’t the timid Lu Muya and the kind-hearted Merica feel fearful of such a Shane?

Shane couldn’t be sure.

In light of this, in the past few days, Shane had maintained a certain distance from Lu Muya and Merica, even further than when they had adventured together before.

However…

“Mr. Shane, where were you born?” Merica suddenly seemed to remember something, asking Shane with some hesitation and nervousness.

Shane was immediately taken aback.
