Villain of my own novel

"Tide of Blood." Kensa Bishop mumbled again and swung down his katana.

WHOOSH

"Arise." From the path where Core and the others had walked out, a sweet woman's cold and indifferent voice could be heard.

CLUNK

A black shadowy creature appeared out of nowhere and blocked Kensa's katana in the middle of the attack, bringing the attack to a halt.

"....." Quinn jolted out of his trance when he heard the voice, his lips curled into a warm smile, but he still couldn't do anything except stay away from the battlefield, he was a supporter who knew his limits very well, so he simply backed off and observed the fight because he had done what he would and because he knew he wouldn't get the opportunity to show what he could.

"Isha!" Core exclaimed with twinkling eyes and dashed at her, ignoring the vampires she was fighting with.

"H-Hello, Miss Core." Isha greeted, awkwardly.

"You're late for the party! It's almost over! See!" Core exclaimed excitedly, stood in front of Isha and said, before pointing a scythe twice her size at Henry, Arngrim, and Louie with a bright smile.

'How do they know each other? Did they meet?' Quinn paused before turning to face Isha, whose nose was a little red and eyes were puffy; she appeared to have been crying before coming here, and Quinn frowned deeply when she noticed her state.

"Why..." Quinn wanted to ask her why she was crying and who had caused her to cry, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he shut it tightly as he felt something stuck in his throat and his heart clench tightly, then again....

'You are not worthy!' Those words flashed through his mind, forcing him to press his lips tightly against each other while clenching his fist and turning his back on her, disgusted with himself. Isha, who witnessed his actions, laughed at him and turned her attention to the enemy in front of them.

"Who is he?" Isha asked, pointing to Kensa Bishop, who was frowning deeply and glaring at the enigmatic creature in front of him.

***

An hour ago.

BAM

"...." Isha stared at her door which Eshwar had loudly shut after walking out.

"Haa...." She slouched back on her bad with a deep sigh, she was not in the least bit worried because the emotion colours she saw in the last movement were orange with streaks of light orange and pink, indicating anxiety, confusion, and disbelief, respectively.

She felt her vision blur as a tear rolled off and fell on her thigh; only then did she realize she was crying.

"Huh? Why am I crying?" She wiped away the tears on her cheeks, but they didn't stop and continued to tear up, so she began to wipe them away simultaneously. Many worst-case scenarios popped up in her mind, as did the solutions to those worst-case scenarios, hurting her even more at those thoughts, even though she knew nothing would happen and, knowing Eshwar, she knew he would return to her, but nonetheless....

It hurt.

"Sniffle....." She leaned back on her bed, pulled her pillow closer, turned to her right and hugged her pillow, brought her knees closer together, curled and closed her eyes while crying.

BAM

BOOOOMMMM

"Hm?" She had slept while crying, involuntarily.

A ear deafening 'BOOM' woke her up, her eyes were still watery, but she ignored it and dashed at the window, and saw the academy which shot out a bright blue pillar, she checked through her window and noticed that cadets and many other people were disappearing right in front of her eyes, she frowned and dashed out the door towards the academy.

"Who is he?" Isha asked Core while pointing at the maroon haired man whose katana was blocked by her shadow summon.

"Oh him! He is a 'TRAINING NPC' he can spawn unlimited training dummies for practice, wanna join?" Core explained while smiling brightly.

"NPC? The ones who appear in games?" Isha took Core's words seriously and stared at the 'NPC' with wide eyes.

"Yeah, a 'game event' is going on, c'mon let's go!!" Core giggled and raised her hands in air before running towards the vampires, excitedly.

'Well.... Considering Eshwar's story... or the story he told me in my previous life, and the 'game' he created in the story is almost identical to this world, so the existence of a 'NPC' is not that surprising, knowing what is to come...' Isha thought.

Isha had learned about Eshwar's 's' from him, as well as the existence of another person who knew about the story; recently, when her memories reappeared to her, she concluded that the world they were living in was far too similar to the story he had told her, but she had never cared about anything about it except Eshwar, of course.

She didn't have any positive emotions toward humans, though she still cared for some, so it didn't matter much to her, she didn't care how the story progressed and would ignore it if it didn't involve Eshwar and was on the lookout for any methods to return to her previous world for revenge against certain people and gods, she would love to bring Eshwar along with her journey, but if he rejected it, she would just have to...

Kidnap him.

After seeing Eshwar's previous reaction, she decided that she would talk to him about their past life and if he didn't accept it, she would simply 'show' him those memories; now that her divinity has awakened, she just needed to increase her 'army' to regain her previous strength, but now that she had begun physical training, she could become stronger than her past, which is one of the reasons why she had pushed forward her plans to return.

"Hm?" Isha looked around the crowd near Quinn and counted 13 people, but she could only feel the presence of 12 people.

'Who is that? I can't even sense their presence....' Isha furrowed her brows at the hooded figure, he/she was wearing a hooded cape, that person had no presence whatsoever, it was too suspicious to her, but because that person was standing next to Quinn, she decided to ignore it.

'Anyway....'

"Let's train a bit."
