Chapter Thirty - A Medieval World

Tyler woke up to find himself lying on a soft mattress covered with a quilt made out of fur. It felt so comfortable that he simply wanted to rub his head against the cushion and cover himself with his quilt for a while, but when he thought of David, he instantly rejected the idea.

He needed to find that person! If the current male lead were also David, it would be easier to apologize to the latter. Tyler might even confess to him since the other party seemed to be attracted to him!

Thinking of this, Tyler couldn't help but feel a trace of warmth in his heart. He remembered how crazily David was attached to him after he had died in the previous world. If he were really here, Tyler would make sure to make it up to him sooner or later!

He stood up and looked around. This time, he seemed to have transmigrated to a medieval world. The room was big enough for more than a dozen people to rest. There was a velvet carpet beneath his feet. The bedroom seemed to have a mirror adorned with diamonds and pearls that glistened in his eyes.

Cabinets were placed beside the giant square mirror, and a rectangle window was just adjacent to the bed covered with cream-colored curtains. There was a thick scent of rose flowers in the room. He walked past the bed and stood, and looked at the table beside the bed.

There was a bowl filled with flowers at the center of the round table.

The scent around that flower pot was so high that it almost felt ethereal. Tyler ignored the table and made his way toward the giant square mirror.

Just as he observed his features, he was stunned. This time, his hair was pitch black, short, and wavy. Round hazel eyes stared back at him sharply. The oval-shaped jaw gave him a beautiful look, and sharp lips enhanced his features even more.

His clothing felt as soft as silk as his fingertips brushed against the jacket he wore. Inside the coat, he had a waistcoat and breeches. The color combination was even more unique, filled with black and brown. He glanced back at the bed only to find pointy shoes hidden beneath.

This European aristocratic face! Why did it seem like he was getting more and more handsome roles recently? He could stand in front of the mirror for a long time, simply gazing at his own face!

Fortunately, Tyler seemed to have a little bit of the sane bones inside his body. He retracted his gaze and started the system interface.

[Welcome to the "World Of Mirrors" storyline.

Respected User306, you're supposed to play the role of an evil magician, Stanley Ware. This world belongs to the male leading category, filled with action and fantasy.

The main character is Dean Holland, a human belonging to a peasant family who became an orphan at the age of ten.]

Tyler frowned. Why did the male lead's name again start with the letter 'D'? He shook his head and continued to read.

[Later, he was taken to the orphanage, where he met the future evil villain, Stanley Ware. But at that time, Stanley was merely twelve years old with innocent features. The latter didn't have a malicious bone in his body.

Both of them became good friends; two years later, a family came and took Stanley away, leaving Dean helplessly alone. But the latter didn't give up. He decided to become a wealthy person to meet his friend.

But what he didn't know was the family who took Stanley in belonged to a group of magicians, and they were even royals. The reason they selected Stanley and brought him to the Ville was because of his magical veins. They wanted to train him to become a king in the world of magic.

But who would've thought that the bigger the villain grew, the more his mind became distorted? The reason was the amount of torture his family gave him, making him hate everyone. And aside from him, there was also a butler, filled with greed. What he wanted was power, so he kept guiding the poor kid to the wrong path. And when Stanley turned eighteen, his mind was filled with the thoughts of revenge.]

So this was another world where the villain accidentally became the villain because of someone else's greed. Tyler rolled his eyes at that and continued to read.

[One full-moon night, Stanley killed everyone in the Ville and became the sole owner. The only person who was spared was the butler.]

Yup, Tyler kind of expected such a thing. It was common in such male leading novels.

[But Stanley was too tired after killing everyone. So he left and decided to roam around and perhaps meet his long-lost childhood friend. But unfortunately, at that time, war was brewing across the land between several countries.

He observed people killing and torturing each other and couldn't help but remember the nightmare he faced as a kid. And then, one day, he suddenly saw his childhood friend torturing someone in the cell.

Stanley's mind collapsed. He felt like even his friend, who used to be pure and innocent as a kid, could change and become someone like this. So he went back to the Ville in anger.]

Tyler frowned. Stanley had already killed his family. But why would he still pretend to have humanity in his heart after becoming a murderer? What right did he have to get angry at the world filled with war when he himself was a killer? 

If there's a murderer who killed the family for revenge and now feels that the world has lost its humanity, that person is hypocritical. Ahh...does that mean the villain this time is a hypocrite?

Tyler shook his head and continued reading.

[What he didn't know was that Dean had become a top-class warrior and an officer who was torturing a spy from the enemy country.

Stanley felt like humanity was in danger. What he didn't know was he himself had inhuman thoughts to begin with. How could he expect something like that from others? He should've started preventing himself from falling further into the wrong path.

But what happened was the opposite. He met the butler once again and complained how the world had become and how even his long-lost friend had turned into an evil person.

The butler was cunning. He wanted power and wanted to become young again. And he knew one spell that could be used to get enough dark energy to fulfill his wish. This spell might kill the spell caster, but he didn't care about the life and death of Stanley. The butler simply wanted to become powerful.

So he lied that there was a spell that could teach these people to become humans again. After learning about the spell, Stanley got excited and thought that he might save the world. So he didn't waste a minute before casting that spell.]

Tyler expected Stanley to fall into the butler's trap. Poor villain. Tyler felt a trace of sympathy in his heart.

[The spell was unique. It would trap the selected people in the world of mirrors and force them to enter each mirror one by one to pass the "test." If they failed, the consequences were death, and if passed, they would enter another mirror. Like this, the person would just end up traveling from one mirror to another without any way out.]

The corners of Tyler's lips stretched to form a smile as if he had found something interesting. So this world was an escape game? He suddenly felt excited.

A new world!!!! Actually, this world was supposed to be pure fantasy, but when I wrote the first arc of this world, I found it seriously creepy. I still feel shivers down my spine whenever I remember that scene, which is still a few chapters ahead.

But I still loved it. Anyway, I'm sure you'll enjoy it as well.

See Ya!
