1 Chapter 1 - The Meeting

Our main character was transmigrated to become a villain of his favorite novel.

***

(Zadicus Pov)

She was the hero who defeated the Dark Lord of Helas.

I am just like a shadow of her dark past.

She is the reason for my demise and redemption.

She is my reward and punishment.

I love and hate her.

She is a hero and I am a villain... And now I am here.

Alone at the forest where we first met.

Slowly dying as I felt the cold spreading throughout my body.

My wounds getting numb.

I felt death was near. I slowly closed my eyes while Memories flashed through my mind.

I wanted to say something but I was a coward.

And I saw her, gallantly standing in front of me while I was sitting on the ground with a shining sword pointing towards my face, she smiled.

I too smiled back.

*********

(Danny POV)

Yes! Finally!

After 2 months of hiatus from my favorite novel "Heroes of Hope." I know it was a cliche name, it was still my favorite novel, all of them are my favorite characters. The book holds sentimental value as this is my first book. The author finally updated.

He said to his forum that he is going to write book 2.

It made me so excited.

I want to know what happened? Did Lea and Roy end up together?

Many questions are still not answered from book 1.

As I am excitedly shouting after hearing the announcement of book 2, maybe the author will finally answer some questions.

I suddenly felt a sudden shake of the ground.

"What the fuck?! An earthquake!" FUCK this!

*Crack!*

I heard something from above me!

I was about to look up but something slammed to the back of my head. And everything went blackout.

I felt my entire body floating.

Where am I??

What happened??

I can't remember...

*****

(DANNY POV)

...

"Now what?"

I looked at my surroundings. It was an extremely unfamiliar place for me.

I am in a goddamn forest. I looked at my clothes because I felt it was not that comfortable.

I am surprised because these are not my clothes. It looked rugged but it still looks noble and luxurious.

I looked at my hands and damn, it was pale white.

These hands look weak.

I abruptly felt a pain in my chest.

This went on for a couple of seconds and the pain subsided.

I have a lot of questions but for now, I should find a civilization.

I just wandered straight but after a couple of minutes. I saw a stream of water in the distance. The thirst I have seems to grow.

I steadily walked towards the stream and tried not to tumble.

I reached the stream, extending my hands to scoop a handful of water but suddenly!

Something came out from the water!

It jumped towards my face! I jerked back. Raising my arm to cover my face falling to my butt.

Everything went slow as I saw the jaws of the fcking piranha flying towards my face.

*Swoosh!*

And suddenly a light chopped the fish in half and missed my face.

I looked up towards the direction where the light came from.

...

I am stunned.

A girl with a shining sword pointed towards my face. A gallant and confident posture!

You could feel her composure and her sharp eyes.

Wearing crude leather armor and a scabbard strapped to her waist.

Her features were exquisite but she bears scars covering all over her arms and neck.

She even had a scar on her left cheek.

I gulped, nervous as hell. She seems familiar, even though she looked foreign with her cosplay costume.

"Hello."

I greeted her nervously. But she just quietly looked at me. Her expression is blank but beautiful nonetheless.

"Are you Percy?" She suddenly asked.

"Excuse me?"

"I said, are you, Percy?" She repeated, unfortunately, she's still pointing the sword at my face.

"No. I am not Percy." I answered honestly. Why does 'Percy' sound familiar?

"Then why do you have that Crest?" She suddenly pointed using her sword's tip towards my left collar.

I reached out and felt something.

It was pinned so I took it out, slowly examined it.

It was made of unknown materials, looked like gold but it was somehow different, I still can't pinpoint it out.

It was a crest, a sword pierced into a dragon's head.

Under it were foreign alphabets and yet I could somehow read it.

"Glory of the Sword," I muttered.

The pieces of information are finally starting to arrange.

I looked towards the girl, finally knowing why she looks familiar and the name "Percy."

"Lea," I said.

I finally saw a surprised expression from her. Damn this is too surreal!

"You know me?" She asked.

Yes, of course, I know you! You are one of my favorite heroines!

Fuck! You are way more beautiful than I imagined!

I tried to calm down and look again at the crest.

"Where are we right now?" I asked her, ignoring her question.

She has this confused, vigilant expression but she answered.

"Carth's Forest." Tilting her head to the side.

"Do you know what family owned this Crest?" I asked her.

"Yes, your royal highness. This crest is owned by the Royal family, Swordstar." Lea abruptly half-kneeled.

This girl is unique... boldly pointing a sword at a royal.

I have a gist of what's going on now.

"I finally found you, Prince Percy Swordstar." She respectfully said.

I just blankly looked at her. My emotions are in a mess.

My head spinning.

"Lea, how did you know I am Percy?" I asked her again to confirm some suspicions.

"Oh well, your brother, Prince Roy showed a picture of you to me." She answered me honestly and bluntly.

...

My conclusion... I transmigrated and I became Percy.

Percy Swordstar: A royal prince, brother of Roy Swordstar. And importantly, the usurper who took over Helas and became its Tyrant. The Dark Lord massacred hundreds of thousands of people. The one who conquered dozens of kingdoms and almost conquered the entire known continent.

Zadicus, the Treacherous Emperor.

And right in front of him, the woman who killed him. The one who ended Zadicus's Conquest.

"Lea Hearts,"

She raised her head and our gazes met.

The Future Dark Lord and Hero.

Gazing at each other. One knew the future, and the other doesn't.

However, the future is ever-changing and everyone has the power to change it through the present.
