Ascension Of The Villain

In a world where villains are crafted, not born, Vyan's life takes a detour from dull to downright dramatic faster than he can say "abracadabra." Meet Vyan, the most ordinary knight in the realm, with all the magical prowess of a damp sock. Loyalty? He's got it in spades. Betrayal? Well, that's the surprise twist in his not-so-fairy-tale life. Framed and forsaken, Vyan is left with nothing but a grudge and some pretty gnarly scars, courtesy of his once-master, Iyana. Oh, did he mention she is the daughter of a marquess and the object of his unrequited affection? Talk about adding insult to injury. Just when he is ready to unleash his inner berserker, a butler comes along with news that makes his hair stand on end: Vyan is the last heir of the Grand Duke's mage dynasty! With power crackling at his fingertips and more mana than he can shake a wand at, Vyan is ready to show the world what happens when you underestimate the underdog. Will Vyan rise from the ashes like a phoenix, or will he crash and burn like a fire-breathing chicken? There's only one way to find out.

The Real Orchestrator

"You mean to say that you married the emperor to take revenge on him?" Vyan asked, his eyebrows shooting up in genuine surprise.

"Yes, I thought I was going to end it all on our first night," Celeste said, staring at her wrinkled hands that were kept on the round table. 

Vyan also couldn't help but take notice of the condition of her hands. She was supposed to be in her-thirties, yet she looked like in her late forties with her sunken eyes and her ghastly skin that looked like dying.

She continued, "I was so blinded by revenge that I overlooked the most important person I should have been keeping an eye on."

It didn't take Vyan even a second to put two and two together as he asked, "Empress Jade?"

Celeste's lip trembled as she nodded. "I neglected the fact Jade was furious over our marriage and she would try to do anything to sabotage me."

"So she was the one who single-handedly wrecked your grand master plan?"
