Chapter 1: 1

In a dilapidated warehouse close to the coast, the iron walls were painted with rust with every gentle brush of the sea’s hands.

 

A slim figure was sitting on a small chair with her hands tied with duct tape; her eyes covered with a cloth.

 

With a closer look, it is a young and beautiful girl – sixteen or seventeen years old at most.

 

Even in such a perilous situation, the girl was still maintaining a straight posture, and the uncovered portions of her face showed no fear, displaying courage that didn’t match her age at all.

 

The other people in the warehouse were several men in suits who are clearly the bad guys in this situation.

 

They wore black suits and donned sunglasses. Despite their intentions, they looked extremely cool.

 

On a reclining chair behind the men, there was a young man with yellow hair and ferocious eyebrows.

 

“Ugh, what’s wrong with me…?”

 

With the damp sea breeze gently sneaking into the warehouse, Kiryu Ryuto sat up from the reclining chair.

 

All he remembered was reading a novel back at home before falling asleep; now, he finds himself in this strange environment.

 

There’s a girl tied to a chair not far away.

 

This must be a kidnapping.

 

“Master Ryuto? Are you not feeling well?”

 

Seeing his master sitting up from his reclining chair, one of the men in the black suits with long hair came over and asked.

 

‘Master?’ he thought to himself. If he was the master, then he is the leader of the men in the warehouse.

 

‘Therefore, the mastermind behind this kidnapping might be myself.’

 

Ryuto froze, bewilderment painted on his face.

 

In the stories he read, whenever people cross over to another world, they become great heroes of their world; dragons that plunge into the sea and soar into the sky.

 

‘But what is my luck?! I become a kidnapper as soon as I cross into another world?!’

 

He fished for his phone and looked into the camera, seeing his yellow hair and handsome, but ferocious face.

 

Seems like he retained his appearance – with his youthful and handsome facial features, older women would definitely be into him.

 

The problem is, his fierce face and questionable yellow hair made him look like a stinky bastard on the streets.

 

A yellow-haired bastard with sunglasses kidnapping a girl…

 

If this succeeds, he will be a yellow-haired criminal; if he fails, he’ll be in prison.

 

A lose-lose situation!

 

‘Wait, I don’t wanna be the bad guy! I’m a good student – I got a 3.5 GPA!’

 

Seeing that his master didn’t answer him, the man in the suit asked again, “Master Ryuto, are you alright?”

 

“Where are we? Who are you again?”

 

Ryuto covered his face with his hands, pretending to wake up from a nap.

 

“We are in District C’s warehouse in Tokyo Bay, and I’m your assistant Yamamoto.”

 

“What are we doing here again?”

 

“According to your instructions, we have kidnapped Miss Koujiro. We are waiting for you to coerce her into submission so she can become your wife.”

 

“Hmm, good.”

 

When he heard Yamamoto’s answer, his mouth raised coldly.

 

Of course, he didn’t want to.

 

However, the original owner of this body might have smiled too much, so his muscles have become accustomed to this action.

 

Besides, after hearing Yamamoto’s words, Ryuto immediately knew where he was.

 

Miss Koujiro, Master Ryuto…

 

These names all come from a dating simulator called “Red Phase Bo 2: No Survival”, developed by a Chinese game company.

 

There are three heroines in this game, and each of them are beautiful women.

 

One of the female protagonists is the eldest of the Koujiro family, Ruri Koujiro.

 

Of course, with protagonists come antagonists.

 

One of the antagonists in the early stages of the game is the eldest of the Ryuto family, Kiryu Ryuto.

 

‘That’s me.’

 

Ryuto raised his head proudly.

 

This character of his is arrogant and domineering in game, achieving his goals via unscrupulous methods.

 

After Ruri Koujiro rejected him, he attempts to kidnap her and plans to force her to submit to him.

 

However, this kidnapping plan is doomed to fail.

 

After all, her family is one of the three major families in Tokyo.

 

It doesn’t take very long for the bodyguards of the family to find the warehouse, beating Ryuto to half-death, before throwing his injured body into the sea to feed the fish. Huh?

 

Isn’t that right now?

 

Ryuto immediately returned to reality, surveying the environment around him.

 

The dilapidated warehouse by the sea… the eldest daughter being bound in a chair in front of him…

 

…and the antagonist who is about to be thrown into the sea.

“Hah… ha ha!”

 

Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but laugh to himself; the sinister laughter echoing through the warehouse.

 

The men in suits couldn’t help but envy their master.

 

They couldn’t believe that he could laugh under such circumstances.

 

Only Ryuto knows the real reason behind his sinister cackle, trying to calm himself down.

 

Sh*t, hold on, hold on, it’s fine, don’t panic. Calm down.

 

He calmed himself down for a moment, immediately taking his phone out from his pocket.

 

11:44:44 pm. Auspicious indeed.

 

The background of his phone had the words “Death” and “Dead” scattered over a black background.

 

According to his knowledge of the game, Miss Koujiro should be saved at around 12:30 am.

 

In order words, there are still forty-five minutes before the bodyguards find this place.

 

‘I need to save myself. I have to save myself. This is so unlucky. Damn it. I can’t become fish fodder as soon as I cross over. I can’t. Damn it.’

 

Ryuto immediately whispered to his assistant Yamamoto, “Yamamoto, mobilize a few thugs right now.”

 

“What’s the matter, Master?”

 

“Have them put on masks and rush in, pretending to ravage Miss Koujiro.”

 

“Pretend? Master, are you… trying to become a hero and save the damsel-in-distress?”

 

A veteran like Yamamoto who has been in the industry for more than ten years naturally knows what Ryuto was about to do.

 

That’s right, heroes save the damsels-in-distress.

 

This is the only way Ryuto can think of to reverse his situation.

 

Miss Koujiro must know that her life is in danger.

 

And he kidnapped her to protect her.

 

This way, Ryuto can change his fate from a [Brain-Dead Villain Who Kidnapped the Heroine] to [An Anti-hero Who Commits Crimes to Protect the Heroine].

 

This was the only thing he could think of.

 

After all, if he escapes, he isn’t exempt from the crime.

 

With Miss Koujiro’s family being powerful, as long as he is still alive, his fate is still sealed, forever fated to pick up soap in a prison.

 

They would never let him go.

 

No matter what.

 

Therefore, this is the only way Ryuto can come up with.

 

However, before Yamamoto issued the order, he remembered something.

 

“By the way, make those thugs pretend that they are from Tianmu.”

 

To his knowledge, he remembers that somebody intends to assassinate Miss Koujiro.

 

The darkness that looms in the game is Tianmu, an evil organization that performs all kinds of evil deeds.

 

If Ryuto is a minor antagonist, then Tianmu is the major antagonist.

 

Therefore, the leader of the group, Tianmu Yongji, is the main antagonist.

 

There is a saying in this game – behind every evil lurks Yongji-sama.

 

Ryuto needed someone to blame for the crime, so he intends to throw Tianmu under the bus.

 

This is based of what Ryuto knows about them – none of them are innocent.

 

“Tianmu? Master Ryuto, you cannot be serious.”

 

However, Yamamoto’s eyes flickered upon hearing his master’s request.

 

“You heard me – they aren’t good people anyways. Just do as I say.”

 

In the game’s original plot, Ryuto and Tianmu never cross paths.

 

As far as he knows, these two forces practically never interact with each other.

 

That’s why Ryuto had the gall to blame them – Yongji-sama, the mastermind behind all evil things in Tokyo.

 

“Of course, Master.”

 

Yamamoto quickly left the warehouse after nodding his head.

 

As he left the warehouse, Yamamoto dialled his phone to an unlisted number.

 

“Yamamoto, something to report?”

 

The call was connected immediately, and the voice of a young woman could be heard.

 

Her voice still sounds so unique and pristine despite it emanating from the phone.

 

Her voice stood out from other ordinary women, contrasting from Yamamoto’s deep, sullen voice.

 

Hearing her voice was like listening to a whisper from the abyss on a moonlit night.

 

The voice that can swallow you whole – soul and flesh, sinking into the bottom of the abyss where there is no light.

 

“Lord Yongji, there is indeed something to report – that kid seems to be getting restless.”
