1 – Fall of the Villainess 1

invest.

This concept, in which the part of luck was removed from the word gambling, gave off a sophisticated feeling at first glance, but at the end it looked not too different from gambling.

Either way, the cruelty it carries is the same in that, as a result of the choice, one side can get everything and the other side can lose everything.

And now. In front of the eyes of many people, the cruelty of the investment was being revealed without filtering.

“This… I can’t do this! Bahamut! How dare you betray me!”

A woman with red hair screaming while being tied up by soldiers

Her appearance, with red eyes like her hair, was very beautiful even by simple standards.

However, the impression of a sharpened sword hung over its beauty, which made it feel like a power that others could not recklessly approach.

And at this moment, a blazing rage was blazing on that sharp, beautiful face.

“I just invested in what I thought was right. So don’t be too angry, Mr. Lee Solda.”

With those words, the young man looked away from her.

A young man with a sharp impression and a moderately skinny body, but his face, to be honest, is difficult to look at as handsome, and has a good appearance that fits the term.

His name was Bahamut Fernandez, and he looked at the judge in front of him with a relaxed expression on his face.

Right after that, a cold judgmental voice began to flow from the mouth of the judge who checked the documents in his hand once again.

“Now that everything is clear with this. This court sentences Isolda Evergarden, head of the Evern Merchant Guilty.”

“Oh, no… ”

“As the crime is serious, half of her entire property will belong to the state, and the other half will belong to the victims of this incident and the person who made the most contribution to uncovering this incident and the Beden Merchant, who suffered the most. I declare that it will be paid as compensation to the owner, Bahamut Fernandez.”

“No eh eh!!!!”

-“Bang Bang Bang!”-

Isolda Evergarden shouted in despair.

On the other hand, cheers of joy erupted from most of the people in the courtroom except for her, and among them, the loudest shouts erupted from the edge of the courtroom.

All the people there were adventurers dressed in poor clothes that made their poverty visible at a glance.

And while watching them, Bahamut, the man who completely turned this trial upside down, let out a deep sigh of relief.

It wasn’t simply because he won this trial.

It was because of his secret that he couldn’t tell anyone here.

‘Whew… that’s good. With this, the main character will not turn black and become hostile to me in the future.’

The young man Bahamut is looking at at this moment.

Bahamut knew very well who he was and who he would become.

Isaac Freeman

Known by Bahamut… To be precise, he was the main character of the medieval dark fantasy novel ‘The Fallen Warrior’ that Kim Jin, a young man in his 20s in Korea, was possessed by.

Although Isaac at this moment was in a position to rejoice in the victory of the trial with his colleagues, the original development of the novel had flowed in the complete opposite direction.

Isolda Evergarden, who appears as a villain in the novel, and Bahamut, her fiancé and a pet character who is simply used by Isolda, Isaac loses the trial and is imprisoned, losing his colleagues in the process. You enter the path of depravity in earnest.

To be precise, Isaac becomes a being close to a dark hero, but in any case, Isaac is imprinted as a fallen warrior who is notorious to the people of this world.

‘In the end, Isaac reforms and returns at the end. That period was about 5 years later…’

In a situation where he clearly knew the future storyline, Jin Kim, who was inside Bahamut, had no intention of dying with Lee Solda after being dragged around like an asshole like in the original work.

It was also a matter directly related to life, and since Kim Jin himself, unlike Bahamut, was an active character who could not live without being used by others, he decided to ignore the original work and find a way for him to live.

So, the plan he made was to pretend to be hurt by Isolda and hit the back of the head at the crucial moment during the trial.

In the first place, since this was Isolda’s plan to secretly steal Bahamut’s property and put the blame on the main character’s party, it was a very simple thing for Kim Jin, who became Bahamut, to secretly collect evidence and turn the situation around.

And as a result, at this moment, Bahamut, who should have become the main character’s enemy and the object of sharpening his sword for revenge, was receiving deep gratitude from the main character and his party, who had become life extensions.

“Thank you very much, Bahamut. If it wasn’t for your help, we would be where we are now…”

“Ahahahaha… No, I’m just sorry I got involved in something bad like this. This is a sign of apology, so please accept it.”

With those words, what Bahamut held out was a bag full of gold coins.

Anyway, according to the judgment, it was said that Isolda’s property should be divided, and in addition, to be liked by the main character who will become one of the strongest in this world was the best investment for Bahamut.

“Such a lot of money… Rather, we are in a position to thank Bahamut. You don’t need to take care of me like this…”

“It’s okay, so please accept it. I have responsibility for this job… At the same time, it is natural for a merchant to invest in adventurers with a promising future. If you do not forget me when you become great in the future, that will be enough.”

“still…”

Bahamut forcibly squeezes Isaac into his pocket, who repeatedly refuses.

Having succeeded in raising the favorability of the main character so reliably, he slowly looked back, relieved by the fact that he would no longer be beaten to death by the main character after at least 5 years.

Even though I have to prepare for something else that will come after that. It was a problem that I could think about with a little bit of time as I had saved more than 5 years.

‘Now then… With this, the death flags in the beginning have been erased… Where should I enjoy life in this world?’

In the original world, Kim Jin lived a life that was barely manageable as part-time job, failing to find a job every time.

For him, from the time he appeared until his death, he only listened to readers shouting at him, but being a Bahamut born with a golden spoon as the heir to a wealthy merchant family from birth was literally dog gain itself.

In addition, although it was not very helpful in reality, his major was once business investment, and even if there were some changes, as he knew the overall contents of the novel, the current situation could not be better for Bahamut.

‘As a bonus, I brought Isolda’s property. Since it happened like this, it wouldn’t be bad to become a real colossus in this world. Even in order not to be swept away by things that will explode five years from now…’

It was at that time that Bahamut was thinking about it.

“Leave this! How dare these filthy things!”

“yes?”

The next moment, Bahamut’s eyes saw Isolda being dragged away by the soldiers.

She lost all her possessions and is now bound to go to prison.

The moment he saw her, a thought suddenly popped into Bahamut’s head.

‘no. Wait… Come to think of it… Isn’t this a rather interesting situation? The death flag is gone anyway…’

While thinking so, Bahamut said to the soldiers.

“Hey, wait a minute, stand there.”

“ah. Yes, Bahamut. What are you doing?”

At the words of Bahamut, the owner of the Beden Merchant Merchant, which controls the commercial power of the city of Schwyz, the soldiers immediately stopped in place.

“With all of this woman’s property confiscated, it seems that if she goes on like this, she will be confirmed as a slave. Why don’t you sell it to me? I will pay you generously.”

“Ah… would you like to?”

“If it is Bahamut-sama’s will, then so be it. Above, we will report.”

With those words, the soldiers accepted Bahamut’s money bag and handed over Isolda.

After the soldiers left, Isolda still looked at Bahamut with hateful eyes and said,

“What are you. Do you think I’ll ever forgive you for doing this?”

“No, there is no need to forgive. I didn’t ask you to release me anyway.”

“That… what do you mean?”

“Whoop whoop. That’s what you’ll find out soon.”

At Bahamut’s words, Lee Sol-da began to feel an ominous energy.

Looking at her like that, a gloomy smile slowly began to form on Bahamut’s lips.

Anyway, this woman was a villain who didn’t even need sympathy.

The action she committed against the main character became the starting point, and countless people died, and even so, this woman did not admit her fault until she died, and she died leaving only more pain to the people who were in love.

Literally irredeemable garbage.

On the other hand, he just saved the lives of countless people by preventing the previous protagonist from falling.

In other words, this woman and her current position are the evil woman who brought suffering to the world and the good man who prevented it.

In this situation, Bahamut concluded that there was no need to feel guilty no matter what he did to this woman, and based on this, he immediately took action.

‘There is no need to show mercy to a wicked woman like this, human rights of the wicked? Tell him to give it to the dog. The correct answer is to make the wicked lick the floor like a wicked man!’

With such thoughts in mind, Bahamut decided to use this opportunity to resolve his personal desires that he had longed for.

Kim Jin’s body has never really been able to do it. But what they do is what they have seen countless times.

*

A dark basement.

There was no other furniture to be seen except for the shabby bed on one side.

“Bahamut! You son of a bitch! Can’t you solve this right now? Do you think you’ll be okay after doing this to me?”

It is Lee Sol who shouts with a voice full of evil while being chained in the basement.

Looking at her like that, Bahamut shook his head slowly with a puzzled look on his face.

“I am I knew from the beginning that it was a bitch with no concept, but… I never thought I would be able to grasp the situation to this extent.”

With those words, Bahamut slowly approached Isolda, who was giving him a hateful look.

And..

-“match!”

“Ouch!”

The next moment, Bahamut swung his palm and slapped Isolda on the cheek.

Isolda’s face soon turned into astonishment at his actions.

“When… when… huh?… yes… you… How dare you… me…”

Just a few days ago, Bahamut was a weak and foolish man who couldn’t even speak in front of him.

Although she became her fiancé aiming for his wealth, he was a pitiful human being who thought he was not at all suitable for his husband.

Then, at a crucial moment today, he stabbed her back with a dagger and instantly destroyed everything in her, and now he was even slapping himself on the cheek like this.

From Lee Solda’s point of view, even though she is experiencing it directly, it is still difficult to distinguish whether this is reality or simply a bad nightmare.

Bahamut slowly nodded as he looked at Isolda, who was making a shocked expression while looking at him like that.

“Looks like you’ve calmed down a bit now. Now then…”

Then, with a sullen smile on his lips, Bahamut drew closer to Isolda.

And..
