Chapter 4: CHAPTER 4 – System.

[Antagonist System]

What the hell is that?

[Hello host]

Suddenly, a screen appeared before my eyes and a voice that I couldn't tell if it was male or female resounded in my ears.

'Who are you?' What you are?

[I am a guide who will help you fulfill your goals.]

'A guide? Please explain properly. What you are?'

[We can say that I am the link between you and my master, I am an ego that inhabits this system.]

If it's an ego, explain why it talks. Egos have a will of their own.

'Continue.'

[The hero Arthur has what we call a "system" that helps him get stronger. My role is the same.]

'Wait... Does the hero Arthur has a system to make him stronger?'

[Exactly. In his case, he has a system that connects him with the God of Light. This connection allows the God of Light to share some of their power with the hero, making it easier to increase their power.]

My entire body began to shake with rage. I always thought Arthur was a genius who possesses extraordinary abilities. But, all he has been given.

This world is very unfair.

"You said that the God of Light uses this system to share power and help Arthur grow stronger. Do you have the same role?'

[Yea.]

'If you are a bridge that connects me with your master. Who is your master?

[It is not obvious? If Arthur is the hero, the protagonist, the knight of the God of Light and you are the antagonist, the guy who wants to bring despair to this world... Guess whose knight you are?]

'The Goddess of Darkness.'

[Bingo!]

The Goddess of Darkness is the goddess claimed by the demons, the dark faction, the natural enemy of the God of Light. A human like me receiving power from her is considered heresy.

'What does the Goddess want with me?'

[I already told you: "help you achieve your goals". You hate the hero more than any other, you hate the whole white faction that despised and humiliated you in your first life. You are the perfect knight for the Goddess, a walking chaos. ]

'You're right. Was it the Goddess who reincarnated me?

[This is something I am not allowed to talk about.]

'Because?'

[Why not.]

"..."

[><]

'Everything is fine. Show me what you can do.'

[Antagonist System

Name: Luke Blady.

Age: 18 years.

Profession: Legendary swordsman.

Title: Reincarnated, Antagonist, Demon of Lust.

Attack: 115

Resistance: 129

Agility: 120

Intelligence: 250

Vitality: 200

Magic Power: Rank b-

Antagonist points: 0.]

Wow, this is amazing.

'What is this antagonistic point?'

[It's like a bargaining chip. You can use it to buy skills in the system store.]

[Store 1

New magic power core (unlocks the beginner mage profession) - 100 antagonist points.

Lightning Magic (starter) - 150 Antagonist Points.

Lightning Magic (Intermediate) - 300 antagonist points.

Lightning Magic (Advanced) - 500 antagonist points.

Affinity with black magic - 1000 antagonist points.]

'Why would I need a new core?'

[The magic power used by swordsmen and the magic power used by other professions such as a mage, despite being similar, are different.]

'Wait. Is there any difference?

[Yes, why do you think you couldn't perform higher level spells? The magic power you've cultivated at your core is geared towards sword techniques, it can be used to use simple magic like creating a barrier or the magic you've learned, but you can't use that magic power to perform more advanced magic. ]

'That's why I need another core, right? Being able to use both types of magic power. By the way, do you have a name that sets you apart?'

[For swordsmanship, magic power is called Sword Ki and for other professions it is called mana.]

"That information is not in the books."

[You earth beings think you are intelligent, but you are just a bunch of ignorant people. Your. You humans didn't realize that there is a difference between the powers of a swordsman and a mage, you simply believe that they are the same.]

'Now that I think about it, there wasn't a being who could use magic and powerful sword techniques.'

[As I said before: the principle behind ki and mana is the same and this allows you to use magic and sword, but all in a very limited way. Either you use mighty swordsmanship or mighty magic, never both.]

'But how is it possible that both use the elements of nature to create techniques and magic?. For example, I am a swordsman and I can use the lightning element to create sword techniques and my sister who is a mage can use it to perform magic.'

[Actually, there are no elements. There are elementals, physical beings who shared their power a long time ago with five humans. These humans gave rise to the ducal houses and the imperial family, and this power was passed on to their descendants.]

'This is interesting. But this is not the time for that.

I took another look at the store. It was probably made to help me become a mage, as I am a legendary swordsman.

'And how do I get these points?'

[You must perform quests. You will often get quests like this now.]

[Mission: Win a battle.

Time: 30 minutes.

Rewards: 200 Antagonist Points, Skill [Eyes of the Lord] (Allows you to see the information of any living being.)]

This is a great skill. I grabbed my worn sword from the storage ring and headed out into the hall.

"Hmm… I was going to call you."

"I heard you coming."

One of the teachers was on his way to call me, but I leave before he enters the room when I feel his presence.

"Alright, good luck in your fight."

"Thanks."

I started to walk and went to the arena. Upon entering, the sun hit my face, creating a pleasant sensation. Looking around, I see several students making noise.

In the VIP seats were the nobles, and the seat above all was the empress. In the arena was my opponent.

I climbed into the arena and positioned myself.

"I'll put you in your place."

"..."

The boy in front of me was holding a scepter, he must be a mage.

"Fight." the judge started.

[air ball]

A wind spell from the Winder family. This boy must be the son of a noble associated with Duke Winder's family.

Seeing the air ball approaching, I simply cut it in half, using force. Seeing his spell cut, my opponent's face contorted.

[Blade of Wind]

Two blades came towards me. I jumped to dodge the two.

[air bullet]

[air bullet]

[air bullet]

My opponent took advantage of my jump to try to hit me.

[Hydra God Footsteps]

I learned this simple but useful spell before coming to the academy, [The Footsteps of the Hydra God] is a spell that allows me to walk on air as well as giving me a speed boost.

It's a very basic spell that I learned in two days and managed to put into practice. I tried to learn other spells, but it was all in vain.

I thought it was my fault for being incapable, but thanks to the system I understood that it was about something deeper.

This spell I learned causes a floor made of lightning to form just on the sole of my shoe. Using this spell, I dodge all attacks and fall to the ground.

"Wow."

The students around me scream at my movements. My opponent starts to get nervous.

"Is that all you have?"

"You bastard. Stop running and fight."

"OK."

[Hydra God Footsteps]

Like lightning, I closed the distance and kicked my opponent in the belly, who flew forward. Blood flowed from the boy's mouth.

"BASTARD."

[Hurricane Catrina.]

In a moment of rage, the boy cast a high-level spell with the aim of killing me. If I come in contact with the hurricane, I will be torn apart. Seeing the hurricane coming towards me, a smile formed on my lips.

If he's trying to kill me, then I have that right too.

I will simply destroy the spell and end this duel.

[Leviathan]

Using the same technique I used against the professor in the test, I completely destroy the hurricane with the swing of my sword. Then I repeat the technique, attacking my opponent.

[Leviathan]

My opponent's face loses color and is filled with despair at the sight of my sword heading towards him. Several marks were carved into his body and to finish, I stuck my sword in one of his arms.

My eyes gleamed with murderous intent, my face was covered in blood and a smile formed on my lips.

"Michael."

I hear someone screaming. So, my opponent's name is Michael. It is a pity.

"To die."

I cut his arm and then turned my body three hundred and sixty degrees, taking a blow to the neck.

"Michael?"

With a light tap on his forehead, Michael's head falls back and his body forwards.

"MICHAEEEEEEEL."

The screaming man was on his knees and his eyes were full of tears. It's probably his father.

"I WILL KILL YOU."

The man gets up and tries to come towards me. But one of the teachers stopped him.

"He killed my son... Let me go."

"Your son had to take responsibility for his actions. This high-level spell was meant to kill your opponent."

The teacher said with frightened eyes.

"No, no."

[Mission complete!

Reward open?]

'Not now.'

[The empress has shown interest in you!]

[Many nobles see you as a threat!]

[Some nobles fear him!]

[Two heroines are interested in you!]

[One of the heroines fears him!]

[The hero Arthur has a feeling of fear!]

[Jeorge Blady is interested in you!]

'What is it?'

[I'm able to convey what other people feel about you, if people feel interest, fear, passion...]

This is amazing and very helpful. Looking around, I see many people looking at me with frightened eyes. With a smile on my face, I left the arena and headed for the tunnel. On the way, I meet Marceline.

"What did you think of my fight Marceline?"

"Well... I think everything went as expected."

I put my hand on Marceline's hair.

"Marceline, kill that nobleman who invaded the arena."

"Yes."

Probably, that man will seek revenge. Faced with such a threat, it's easier to eliminate him now than for him to cause me problems in the future. I already have too many things to worry about.

Marceline disappeared into the shadows and I went back to the arena locker room to clean up. After I took some clean clothes out of my storage ring, I always carry extra clothes just in case.

After cleaning up, I step out into the arena hall again. The first thing I see is a middle-aged man waiting for me with his arms crossed.

Seeing me, the man bows to greet me.

"Mister Luke Blady."

"Who are you?"

"I am Empress Margaret's private butler. I come by order of your majesty to invite you to dinner tonight at the palace at 7 pm."

I knew from the system notification that the empress had shown an interest in me, but I never imagined that I would be invited so immediately. In addition, he said a dinner with the empress.

How many nobles had a private dinner with Your Majesty? Not even my father, a respectable duke, had such a privilege. Obviously, in the face of such an occasion, several doubts arose in my mind.

"Tell Your Majesty that I have accepted her invitation. At 7:00 pm, I will be at the palace."

"Thanks. Now, if you'll excuse me."

The empress's butler left and I followed. As I leave the arena, I find my father and sister beside him.

"My boy." my father said with a smile.

A shiver ran down my spine at the sight of that smile. Seriously, this guy is nothing but a freeloader. Looking at my sister, she looks away.

"What do you want, dad?"

"After this victory, I was forced to come see you. I am a proud son, keep it up and one day you will be able to stand by my side as your big brother."

Like I said, he's nothing but a freeloader. Obviously, he's interested in my power. With the aim of strengthening the Blady family. He never showed that interest in my past life.

I will never forget the beatings he gave me for not meeting his expectations. Every year, when the exam results came out, I was beaten as punishment for having tarnished the family name.

Now he acts like this. My dad stopped smiling and went back to normal.

"Now. I'm going back to the mansion, I have work to do. See you two another day."

My father teleported away, leaving only the wind and my sister.

"I'm going back to the dorm." I said and started walking, leaving my sister.

As it is the entrance ceremony, there are no classes today. I decided to spend the rest of the day in the dorm.

The imperial academy has a meritocracy system, students who manage to get the best grades on the test stay in private rooms. In my first life, I shared my room with a noble pig.

That bastard hadn't showered in days and his side of the room was literally a pigsty. Thanks to my test result this year, I'll have a room to myself.

I went upstairs to the dorm and entered my room, it's a very large room with a clothesline. What caught my attention was the size of the bed, it could easily fit more than one person.

If all goes well, many heroines have slept here.

I realized that there was a door inside the room, when I opened it I came across a bathroom. This is luxury, other students have to use a shared bathroom.

I got out of the bathroom and lay down on the bed.

'System. I want to receive the quest rewards.'

[200 antagonist points acquired.]

[Eyes of the acquired lord.]

[Luke, get ready.]

Suddenly, a massive headache came on, and my eyes started to burn, causing my vision to go white. After a few minutes, my head stopped hurting and my vision returned.

"What was this?"

[To use the eyes of the lord, I had to adapt your eyes. They kind of went through a transformation, and that transformation generated this pain.]

"You could have warned. How do I use these eyes?'

[It's the same as using any other skill.]

Hearing some voices in the hallway, I leave the room to test the skill. As per the description, I can see someone else's information as I see mine.

I see two boys talking.

[Eyes of the Lord]

I use the skill on one of the guys.

Name: Cain

Profession: Assassin

Age: 19

C-Rank magic power.

'System. Why can't I see all the stats like vitality, strength, speed and titles?'

[The skill is not in its final form.]

Despite showing little information, it is a very useful skill. By using it, I will already have the advantage of knowing if the opponent is stronger or weaker than me, as well as knowing what the opponent's profession is.

I went back inside the room. I decided not to buy a new core, now that I know there is a difference between magic powers, I will focus on increasing my sword ki.

Don't need to train something I already know, all my skills are already stored in my mind.

'System, is there any way to increase my physical strength?'

[Yea. Like I said: doing quests gives you rewards. One is a start point, which you can use to increase your own stats.]

'Will it hurt like [the lord's eyes]?'

[Well, you will be increasing your strength, physique, stamina, vitality or other stats without doing anything. That is, your body will undergo an unnatural transformation (change), and it will obviously hurt.]

'Sigh'
