1 Eve Santana

Year 20xx

The sky darkens as small flying objects gather closer to the clouds, covering the world into cold darkness, and wave of noise from above interrupts the silence of the empty city. The swarm of artificial intelligence that had that had ascended into the sky gather and formed a barrier one by one. Every continent had face the same scene, the cities had now been captured and had been left empty like a ghost town.

Months ago, people who are found while in hiding are taken away.

The civilians had given up fighting knowing their enemies had the upper hand but a few people around the world had stood their ground and worked secretly from the eyes of the New World Order.

" --- base 879 is under attack!! " she could see the static images of a man in a lab gown inside the command room calling for help.

Her eyes then travels to the hundreds of image, the blue light covering the whole room as she stares at the screens.

" --- the New World Order has breached our system-- the base can't hold on much longer--- this is north east base Ea.447-"

" --- south eat base Th.65 is down---i repeat---don't send---back-up---"

" this is the north base, commanding all base to hold on, we are mobilizing our troops--"

" --send help!------please! Help us! We don't want to d- "

A woman was standing inside an isolated research facility and looking at the hundreds of screen in disbelief, the screens showed images of live coverage from working CCTVs around the world.

She, who was still a wanted hacker and had been an enemy of every government in all nations, now reduce to a state of a helpless person hiding inside a research institution surrounded by A.I's high technology commanded by the New World Order.

All she could do is watch everyday the situation outside.

As she saw an image of the floating tech roaming around the streets of cities and even inside of a few remaining facilities and militarily base. It was a horrifying scene, the image of seeing chaos and disruption, and knowing your the next one who will be captured once these high intelligence technology find a way to unblock the firewall she created to protect herself.

" How did it turn out like this?... " with a cold sweat running down her forehead, she stood there holding her broken laptop, not knowing if she should proceed with helping.

All of a sudden was a terrifying shake from the ground making her lose her balance, resulting to her laptop to shut down when it fall to the ground and then a loud explosion was heard, throwing her to the side of the wall.

The impact had made her sight blurry, accompanied by a loud ringing in her ear.

Everything turned blurry and she couldn't see clearly, only her sense of smell was heightened with the lack of her eyes and ear, and then there, she could smell dust and smoke, the heat she felt that stings and burn her skin felt like fire. The fallen debris and dust had covered her and the impact that she recieve from the sudden blow had resulted to her head being dizzy and even a broken limb.

With so much pain and confusion, she thought " ah, so this is how I die? "

Without realizing the footsteps of unknown people hastily entering the room, she looked at the shadowy figures before her eyes turned dull and her line of sight turned dark.

She lost consciousness and her breathing stops.

The sudden memories of her original world woke her up at the middle of the night. Eyes wide as she stare up the high ceiling, and a few hurried breathing could be heard in the quiet room.

Only the light illuminating from outside the glass wall of the high rise building was the reason why she could see where she was at the moment in the dimly illuminated room.

Eve had thought she would never see her original world again, seeing how it had been years... centuries... even probably a millennium that she had been stuck in this current system like world, she had never even dreamed of it whenever she slept.

So why now?

After losing consciousness, Eve had entered a space where her soul could travel to different worlds and where a system decides your actions, not giving you any better choices as it guides you to your death. She can't even count the number of worlds she had been nor the many bodies she possessed once she enters a world.

Eve wipes away a cold sweat running down her neck and forehead. The memories of the last thing she experienced before being sent in this fabricated world, made her think that there must be something wrong with the system.

As she said before, never had she dreamed of anything when entering any worlds. Everyday, it's always a dreamless night for her. So why now?

Something isn't right, she thinks.

Eve tidies her long black hair and lifts her feet away from and on to the side of the bed, she slips her feet into a pair of white slippers and gets out of the comfortable sheets.

With a sigh, she heads towards the glass wall with a few strides. Her eyes drawn at the sight outside her glass wall, the sight of the large city building stretching to the sky, the millions of lights around glowing in the night and vehicles moving around the roads creating a peaceful night scenery which you won't find in the morning.

She stares at the moving vehicles that looked minuscule from her sight on top of the building.

Her gaze then moves to the far left where the view of a large red bridge connecting from one land to another, standing above the sea, the waters reflecting the lights and looked like obsidian dancing around.

The ships at night looked like floating lights, slowly getting further and further. The sky was dark and no stars could be seen with such light pollution in this city.

Eve sat down on a sofa that was facing this scenery, she had been thinking about how this portrait like scene would be missed the moment she completed her task. The moment her progress reached 100%, the body she possessed will be disposed of because of the unchanging plot, and after that, her soul will leave the body and she had to move to the next world without rest.

This had become a cycle that repeats again and again.

She looks at the glass window and under the pale moonlight, she sees a slight reflection of her current appearance.

An appearance which isn't hers.

Eve Santana didn't exist in this world nor the previous worlds she had been sent to, she only possessed the bodies that were left by the original host. Just like Molina Sylvia, the current body she had possessed, a woman who was doomed to fall in love with a man who sees her as a pathetic woman and eyesore.

Molina Sylvia was the daughter of a rich CEO of a trading company, who was prominent in their industry, while her mother was a world renowned painter during her 30s.

Her father was Hubert Graham, one of the many business tycoon of the trading industry. With wealth and power, he had everything and nothing to fear.

Hubert Graham who is a well respected figure in the business and trading industry, doesn't lack anything, and that could be said with his wife and mistresses.

Unfortunately for Molina, He father had been more affectionate with his recent mistress more than his legal wife, Mona Sylvia.

Molina's mother, Mona Sylvia, who was once a respectable artist had lost both her husband's love and her passion to create brilliant artworks the moment when her husband had committed multiple love affairs.

With the lost of love and attention, Mona Sylvia had used her daughter to regain at least their positions in the family, to let her Molina get close to her father and recieve inheritance and support.

The story was still hallway done. Molina was this world's villainess and she will have a tragic ending, just like the rest of the characters Eve had possessed in the past worlds.

The sun hasn't yet rise when Molina was informed by the system sudden notification.

System:

[ World progress: 67%.

Accumulated points: 9998]

System:

[ Today's Main Event:

Molina must completely lose her father's favor during the company party, make sure that Diana will gain the spotlight of the night by showing the difference between of a sweet gentle princess Diana, and Molina whose full of greed and scheme.

Additional task: make sure Johnathan, Dave and Ethan will see such scene in order to lower their favorability of Molina and help Diana to complete her favorability of each of them.

Acting out as crazy and cold in the party is a must, points will be given for every impeccable act of a villainess ]

Eve watched the system notification levitates in front of her before she dismissed it halfheartedly. It's always been the same concept. Over and over again, act like a Villainess and help the Female Lead in every world to succeed in having a relationship with every Male Leads and give her happiness.

Eve had hated being forced to act like a villain and even hated the fact she can't change the fates of every body she possessed. Before she tried so hard to reject the commands but it ends up leaving a painful memory for her, a punishment that gave her nothing but fear and pain.

So Eve had to bite her tongue and do what she was told to do.

Meanwhile all these female leads that she helped in the dark, was the reason of both her and the original bodies death. The so-called innocent and pitiful women who does no wrong in front of everyone, gains their pity and support. They have nothing to do, whatever they say is correct and whatever they do is just.

While the Villain and Villainess had to prove themselves for things they were ignored and ridiculed of, the painful past that made them who they were at the present, and even had to explain the obvious of why their hearts had turned cold.

Sometimes, it's too late to ask why people becomes a Villain and Villainess.

Because people only see what they had seen and never want to know the other side of the story.

Eve realized she and the host bodies she possessed are just being used to be somekind of stepping stones, an object easily thrown to the side, becoming a loser who build a bridge for two people while she falls down the river and drowns the moment it's done. The one's who are misunderstood are the bodies she possessed.

She wakes up from her daze and sees the world softly covered in the first light of the day. The warm sunlight slowly pierce the night sky with colors.

Eve had sat there for another minute to appreciate the tranquility of the first light before standing up and leaves the bedroom to wash herself up, starting her dooms day with a warm water.

After she dressed up in Molina's clothes, she does her make up, picks up a pair of heels that would go with her dark green dress, and leaves the large apartment with her purse.

When she entered the elevator which had a relaxing music playing inside, Eve immediately pressed to the parking area which was found in the lower levels.

She pressed a button and the door closed automatically.

Her gaze then immediately set to the person in front of her, this body's appearance reflected in the mirrored wall was Molina.

Molina Sylvia, like all other female villainess, was totally a beauty. A 20 years old who has work in her father company and tried her best to show everyone she can also lead a small team and grab deals and new partnerships. She is smart yet her character, due to her family's current situation, lacks trust. A woman who easily loses her temper, a person who hand never recieve affection.

Eve looks at the reflection and she sees her current appearance.

Ink colored hair that falls on her back, a pair of light golden doe eyes, her skin smooth and glowing, face shape looked slightly sharp yet elegant. Her nose small and slightly pointy on the tip. She had a luscious plump lips that was thin when she doesn't smile.

Wearing dark green dress, she looked paler than she was.

She was taller than some girls yet also smaller when it comes to other foreign women, 5'7" without heels and she had long legs when she walks. Molina was pretty but her character was stupid, she cannot control her expression, her mouth, and even her emotions.

That's why in this kind of world where women scheme against eachother behind a mask, she is losing the game with her temper. She could see through others yet she doesn't know how to expose them, her character is truly pitiful.

Eve hears the sound of the door opening and left the elevator. As she steps out and to the parking area, she finds her parked car which was a white Porsche and smoothly enters the driver's seat.

She head to her family mansion first, the system guides her with a notification and a navigator on the screen.

The next first task of the day was---

System:

[ Dave will be present in the mansion as he looks for Diana. Molina, who the male leads of this world despised, will bump into him. Molina, who still cannot accept the fact her childhood friend sided her step sister, finds fault in Diana in front of Dave and this will cause another decrease favorability for Molina.

Points will be given when you act out: Embarrassed, Angry and Jealous ]

Eve had just passed a few greenlights and drove into their family property, entering the long way towards a mansion. She then arrives in 30 minutes and set her car in front of the entrance. Not caring where she leaves the car, she enters the building with large strides.

" Let's get this over with... " Eve says as the door opens and a butler coldly looks at her, not even greeting her when she walks in front of him.

Knowing Julius, a butler of the house for 30 years, doesn't respect Molina and doesn't acknowledge her as a Graham's daughter, all Molina could do is roll her eyes.

Molina also doesn't like anyone in the mansion, even her own mother but she can't deny only Mona, her mother, was her ally.

" what a surprise to see you return here " Julius says when Molina climbs up the stairs. Molina frowns, everyone in the house never called her any titles unlike Diana, who was always called Young Miss Graham.

Molina, was just called "you". She was treated poorly, even the dogs in this family were called out affectionately and feed properly.

what a joke, she thought with disgust.

Eve really wanted to ignore the old butler but Molina's character is always someone who grabs an opportunity to quarrel, especially if the other person starred to irritated the fuck off of her.

" since you don't even respect me as "that" man's daughter, I'd rather have you ignore me and mind your business " she says and the volume of her voice would be enough to be heard by whoever were around the main building.

System:

[ 1 points. Total of 9999 points accumulated

Please continue to persevere ]

Julius shakes his head, as if he was disappointed with her lack of respect for him as an older person and the way of how showing his displeasure in her temper.

" Master Graham is busy at the moment, you should have made an appointment before coming here. The master's time is important and shouldn't be wasted by...trivial things "

Eve really doesn't care but she needed points.

Eve tried showing an even more angry expression, her fist clenched and she grits her teeth.

" rotten old geezer " Molina angry says but this time, she only let's herself hear it.

" I won't show you the way to the waiting room, don't disturb the maids with snacks and drinks, we are busy and can't attend to you " Julius says with the most insincere smile that he blatantly shows.

Eve then was left alone and she didn't minded the words of an extra.

With only one task in the morning, she hurriedly walks toward the the second floor and headed towards her father's office. Knowing her target is there and might leave at any moment, she hurried her steps.

Just as she was about to turn into a corner, she bumps into a familiar handsome and tall man, Eve mentally sighs in relief seeing her target sent himself to her doorstep.
