Enemy of the World?

"What?" Dante said in a low voice, it was slightly child like, just like he was when he was a teenager.

He held his throat and inspected the man in the mirror, he looked to be the age a year or maybe a little more than before he went to the academy. He had few bruises and his skin was still a healthy colour.

"Did I hear a voice in my head as well? What happened? I thought I had died?" He was talking to himself, it was a habit he had when he was alone and developed it in his childhood days to cure his loneliness. His sister would mostly ignore him and even look down upon him due to Dante's lack of talent, it was the same with his parents. They would not bother with their time over someone so weak.

His family was known as The Demiscue, The Head of the family was Salazar Demiscue and Dante's father, Dante's mother was Erina Demiscue. A Fiery Redhead who boiled with a passion for fighting when she was younger, yet has calmed down massively with her age. Now she mostly only cares for the family reputation and her husband. Salazar was tall and had a medium build, he was close to a S class Awakened who used the spear as a weapon, he held indifference to his 3 children, however, he did not bother to nurture Dante. Despite him helping and nurturing Dante's sister and elder brother no care was shown towards his second son.

Salazar had left Dante to be raised by servants, 2 to be specific, Jason and Amanda. They were both awakened however but both held distain for Dante. They had hoped to have better stations serving the main family, but now since Dante was born. They had to take care of the trash of the family with very low potential. They did not take their jobs seriously and only did what needed to be done for Dante, never going beyond to provide care.

The last member of the Demiscue family was his grandfather, Balthazar. His existence changed the history of the family and brought it to new heights. A SS talent that was part of the 12 High Council. He was indifferent to everyone in the family including his own son, Salazar, passing on his title as the head of the family in order to be seated at the council. Balthazar was still a man deeply devoted to the family, he would visit from time to time but was not there often. Despite Dante being outcasted by the family, Balthazar would not give him any negative looks.

He held the epitome of pride, never taking any apprentices as no one was worthy for him to even gaze at, let alone take in as a student. To him, other than those that pose a threat, he could only pity them for their weakness.

His cold attitude and numerous achievements in battle granted him the nickname: Devastating Dragon.

Sadly, however, in Dante's past he dies due to a mysterious clouded figure who had turned out to be a dangerous dungeon anomaly straight from the demonic monarch. This brought a huge hit to the Demiscue family and further lead to Dante's horrible destiny coming to pass.

Dante would have to find a way to escape that horrible past now in order to stay alive.

Dante, marvelled at his old body began to stretch and do basic movements such as push ups, sit ups and squats. He found it quite hard to move at first, it did not last long as his stamina ran out very quickly.

"hah.. Ha.." He was struggling to breathe, He forgot how bad his body was before he awakened mana. Even when he awakened he was far behind everyone else as he could only do it halfway through the first year of the academy. At this time his sister had already been awakened for 2 years despite being a year younger than him.

Dante stepped towards the window as he stared outside, feeling the breeze pass through his face his messy black hair was brushed back by the cool spring air. Everything seemed like a dream right now. He held so many questions, he wasn't even sure if everything was even real.

[System initialised]

[Would the Host like to start]

Dante turned around quickly as he prepared to fight, leaning against the wall he just stared at the door in the large room which was not open. He was sure he heard a voice, at this time he knew there was no one in the house he could trust.

Did he hear that right? System? What was that... He knew in the future there were technology people wore which could reveal their body statistic however nothing about a system was ever mentioned...

Since it asked whether it should start and Dante was still confused about the full situation He decided to experiment and follow along. He held his arms up in a fighting position suitable for this weak body. He was sure there was a low chance he could win in a fight, but if this was a new start for him. There was no way he would die that easily again.

"Start." He said with a cold look gazing at the door, expecting something to pop in.

However after a few seconds nothing happened, Dante's face had a slight amount of confusion as he raised his arm down slightly, before a robotic female like voice sounded in his ear.

[Host has began the Villain System]

[Would you like to know the introduction to the system]

Dante looked all over the room and even outside, despite the room being large, it was quite empty and no one was in sight. Outside there were a few servants working the field, however none of them ever acknowledged him. "Am I going crazy?" he spoke to himself once more but was reminded that that was not a valid answer to the system's question.

"Yes. Tell me."

[Starting Introduction]

The soft warm voice of a lady came into his head as she began to speak.

[Hello, I presume once you are hearing this you would have many questions. However, I only have one thing to say. Trust this gift from me. This system is what will protect you from making your destiny pass again...]

Dante held a lot of questions in his head yet stayed silent, he himself knew his existence shouldn't be possible right now. So there was but few choice other than to listen to what she is saying.

[You are my sacred champion, burdened by this curse. I apologise for what the future fate will hold for you. However, in order to get you here a grave sin has been committed to this universe and the Gods. You are now the destined enemy of this world, it may not have much effects now when you are weak. Nevertheless, as you grow stronger fate will realise how great of an anomaly you are and try to eliminate you. The more unpredictable you act the harder it will be for your death to pass. As something is given, another must be taken away also. The universe remains in balance one way or another.]

[You do not belong in this world, my dear champion. The only way to survive will be to grow strong. So strong that not even fate nor the Gods and Deities can harm you. Use the system to your full advantage.]

Dante was doubting her words as nothing made sense. "What... This earth will try to kill me? I am the enemy of fate and the world?"

[I apologise my dear, as I cannot make this any longer. For I myself am out of time too. When the time comes and you are stronger, you will learn more about everything...]

[I wish you luck, my Villain of Fate.]

Beep...

A low beep had played inside of his head as Dante tried to process what was going on...

After thinking for about 5 seconds over her words... A message popped up Infront of him. It was text written in elvish language surrounded by a light blue light. Dante could not understand how this was possible as he never learnt elvish or any other language except for the common tongue...

The text says:

__________________________________________

[ A Main Objective has appeared ]

- From time to time objectives shall be issued by the system which are filled with rewards. The other choices of your life is up to you. There are 2 main types of objectives. Main and Optional. Main objectives are necessary and are vitally Important, whilst with Optional the host is given the choice whether to complete or not. These Objectives will not come often, so it is suggested to do them when appearing. However if an optional objective, is not aligning with the Host's goals, ignoring the objective will not harm the Host.

_____________________________________________

Dante was stunned, what did it mean by rewards and a penalty for failing. As more questions popped into his head he heard one more message pop up.
