The world once had villains.

They soared through the skies with heroes, balanced power, and disappeared when the world did not need them.

However, one day... they vanished.

Now, fifty years later, the earth has forgotten it once had them. Heroes became status symbols and lived lavishly while enjoying luxuries by exploiting common people.

Sixteen-year-old Luna was an orphan, and as if God was not satisfied with her already huge disadvantage, he made her mute too. She was constantly bullied in her high school because of this.

One day, during a part-time job at a convenience store, she was attacked by a group of bullies and injured her head. When she thought she was going to die and despair started to creep in, a red screen appeared in her sight.

[The Evil Villainess System is initiating.]

[The heroes forsook their duties and indulged in worldly matters. The cataclysm is nearing; the world can't afford their sloppiness. You, as a villainess, must wake them from their slumber.]

[Do villainess activities and gain villainess points. You can buy anything with these points.]

The word 'rest' didn't seem to exist in my vocabulary anymore.


For years, my life had been a cycle of quiet fear and restless anxiety. Rest was just the silent pause between moments of torment. 


Now, after the Thorne heist, after Luna had nearly died and returned stronger than ever, a different kind of energy hummed under my skin. 


When she gave us the order—'Make that school a safe place'—it wasn't a burden. It was a gift. 


It was the first time in my life I had been given a mission that wasn't about survival, but about protection. It was a chance to use the strength she had given me to ensure no one else ever had to feel as small and helpless as I once did.


So, while the city licked its wounds and whispered the name of the Evil Villainess, I went to work.


I started with the back alleys behind the Northgate commercial strip.
