I Quit Being The Villain

'I'll pick both.'

Gu Xia decided with a smirk.

[....Husband... I don't think that's allowed...]

'Why not?'

Gu Xia raised his right brow with curiosity.

[Well... Because you have to decide!]

`Great explaining!'

Gu Xia clapped his hands as he spoke in a sarcastic voice.

[....I'll ask the higher ups...]

Gu Xia showed a handsome smile as he blew a kiss up to the ceiling.

'I knew my concubine wouldn't let me down!'

[---------------The Higher Beings are currently discussing---------------Decision has been made.]

[The Higher Beings have decided to allow you the small villain to defy this novel world that they created for their entertainment.]

Gu Xia's entire body shook and a distorted smile was plastered on his handsome face.

His heart was thumping in excitement.

'Really!?'

Gu Xia could hardly believe it...

[Only on one condition....]

'Tell me!'

Gu Xia didn't waste any time with opening his mouth to speak.

[The one condition is... You must be the Deity of Villains and become the main villain to hundreds of novels...]

[Meaning this novel world will be merged with others... Protagonists from all walks of life will feel hatred toward you no matter what.]

[Immortal Emperor, King of Assassins, child prodigy, transmigrated protagonist, a protagonist sent back to the past, a protagonist who possesses a system, a son-in-law who has a terrifying background but hides deep, Mercenary King, Godly doctor, a protagonist that comes down the mountain... You get the idea...]

Gu Xia's face which had a smile turned to a frown as he heard all this.

'I won't have to follow a plot, right?'

[According to the Higher Beings/Higher Ups... They said you do not have to follow a plot and all you have to do is either kill them or subdue them and make them work for you.]

[Also, draining their luck is a thing you must do before killing them or subduing them, but it will be easy as all you have to do is take away their opportunities, face slap them, and etc!]

[This also goes for stealing their future/destined harem members!]

Gu Xia showed an awkward smile as he let out a small laugh.

'Are you telling me I'm going to have to pass out green hats like candy on Halloween....'

[Husband is correct!]

Gu Xia sighed to himself.

'Before I pick, could you tell me what both Halo's do?'

[Of course!]

[Loading description for the Heavenly Villain's Halo----------Ding!]

[The Heavenly Villain's Halo allows the user to drain luck from any target selected, triples your background into a unstoppable force, the user will never be looked down upon no matter what the outcome is for anything, and the user's luck will turn dark, meaning your luck will be at 0 until you steal luck!]

[But! The user will be able to gain more luck than a protagonist!]

[So overall, husband you will be a dignified man who has the world at your fingertips with your background and no power in the entire world is able to kill you unless it's a protagonist!]

Gu Xia nodded his head.

'I see... Move onto the next Halo.'

[Loading description for the Heavenly Protagonist's Halo----------Ding!]

[Heavenly Protagonist's Halo allows the user to have a shit load of plot armor, stupid luck, fan service, random opportunities will appear, blah blah blah you get what I'm saying...]

Gu Xia scratched his cheek and asked a question he was holding.

'What's the down side for this Halo?'

[...You will be looked down upon and become a pig ready to eat the tiger and your background will be weak until you grow it, though once you grow your background it can become stronger then the Heavenly Villain's Halo's background.]

[Also, you will be looked down upon by any wom-]

'I take back my words from earlier, I just want the Heavenly Villain's Halo...'

Gu Xia interrupted the system...

[Are you sure...]

Gu Xia slightly nodded his head and explained why he took back his words.

'Although I get plot armor and such... I won't allow myself to be looked down upon by women.'

'Also, I don't want to deal with those protagonists. After all, I don't want to be in this novel world forever.'

'I just want to return back to earth and maybe bring my harem back with me.'

[I see... I understand! Then I'll reward you with The Heavenly Villain's Halo!]

[-----------Ding! The Host has been rewarded The Heavenly Villain's Halo!]

Out of thin air a purple colored halo appeared above Gu Xia's head then instantly disappeared.

[Husband please check your phone and go to your contact list!]

Shrugging his shoulders, Gu Xia listened to his concubine, took out his phone and went to his contact list.

Once he pressed the icon his eyes widened in shock as he scrolled down.

'Dark Society....'

[Yep! Husband has complete control over that organization!]

Gu Xia who was still in disbelief found himself in a turmoil of emotions he hasn't felt in a while.

'No fucking way... I control Dark Society... The most influential organization in the entire world that all who know of its existence must obey...'

'All figures who know, range from high class celebrities to all influential people who have power.'

A distorted expression on Gu Xia's face appeared.

He officially had absolute authority over everyone besides the protagonist.

"Y-You're going to be my husband!"

Gu Xia's ears perked up when he heard a feminine voice resound through the room.

He turned his head to the left and his eyes landed on Li Min's crazed expression.

Li Min, stood up from the floor and spit out some blood and wiped her mouth with her jaded hand.

Ignoring the other wounds on her delicate body she slowly limped over to Gu Xia who just stared at her.

As Li Min made her way closer and closer to Gu Xia she spoke in a depressing voice.

"Although I am ugly with the two scars I have on my face and neck... I still have a nice figure..."

Gu Xia sighed and took a step forward where he was standing in front of Li Min and took her into his embrace as he whispered into her ear.

"You're not ugly... I find your scars pretty attractive to be honest."

Li Min's eyes widened in shock and for some reason she felt a certain emotion flow through her heart...

Warmth...

Never in her life has she been complimented on by her scars...

Li Min looked upward with a giant smile on her face but it instantly turned dark when she saw Gu Xia's cold expression.

"Although I would be glad to accept you... I just can't emotionally... I must... Do something first to heal my past... Before I even accept you."

Li Min's heart felt like it was being stabbed with a knife when Gu Xia's words entered her ears.

"What must you do! I'll help! As long as you accept me..."

She tightly held onto Gu Xia's collars.

Gu Xia frowned and decided to speak in his inner voice so all the heroines could hear...

[Change of plans... I want all of you to meet up at my private villa in about 12 hours.]

[It's time for me to unleash some steam and pent up emotions I've been holding in for far too long...]

[If you decide not to show... I'll release hell on your families...]
