Even the Villain Has a Story

Read

One day, gates opened, and the world descended into chaos. At the same time, Sa-yoon found himself face-to-face with a bizarre system window.

“You have been selected as humanity’s ‘evil.’ (b ᵔ▽ᵔ)b”

Forced into the role of a villain and driven to the brink of insanity, Sa-yoon kidnaps Han Geon-joo, the key to escaping the damned system.

“…What’s your objective?”

“Recruiting talent?”

“By kidnapping someone? What are you, some kind of gangster guild?”

The trait that could help him break free from the system: ‘The Resister.’ To activate it, Sa-yoon aims to raise Geon-joo to S-rank while maintaining a close relationship with him…

After lavishing Geon-joo with praise and nurturing him, just as he was on the cusp of reaching S-rank, he vanished without a trace. Eventually, he reappears before Sa-yoon as an S-rank hunter.

“F*ck, what the hell are you doing?”

“You think it’s okay to discard people like old shoes?”

Who was the one who abandoned whom first?

“If you want to know what it feels like to crawl on all fours, go ahead and try running away again.”

A precarious reunion and ominous signs from the gates. Can Sa-yoon truly break free from the system?
