《The Hidden Boss and Villain is me?》 Chapter 1 When I opened my eyes, I was greeted by darkness. And it felt like I was void, unable to move. My movements are limited. I can move my eyes, my head, and my fingers. I stay like that when I hear a voice. "Initiating¡­" It belongs to a girl, more like an artificial intelligent voice which I often hear in a game I used to play whenever I had my day-offs. "Subject has awakened" "Proceed from transferring" Transferring what? Where am I? Oh, wait. I remember something. I remember I caught my best friend and fiance cheating on me and then Avery pushed me off the balcony I was in. And I fell from the fiftieth floor of the building my fiance lives in. "Memory retrieving from the host 1 started" Anger starts to kick in remembering how they both smirk at me while watching me falling down. Those sons of a bitch! I kill them myself! "Warning! Host 1 emotion is unstable! Requesting to induce calming serum" Suddenly, the anger I am feeling right now vanishes, calming me. "Host 1 is stable. Proceed to transfer Host 2 memories to Host 1" "Proceeding..." Proceeding what? What''s going on? Who the heck was talking inside my head? "Warning: Transferring in process. Some memories might trigger Host 1 anger again. Raising stabilizing serum at the limit." Shut up! Stop talking! Before my eyes, I watch a memory that doesn''t belong to mine. "You are not worthy to be my bride, you are fat and ugly," I heard a man saying to whoever owns the memory I am watching. But when I look at the man''s eyes, I see someone else''s reflection. And judging by her clothes, I can say she''s an important woman despite her size. "You are a disgrace to our family! The hero hates you and you''re not even non-magic royal blood! I wish you had died and not your mother!" An old-looking man with a crown on his head yells at me. Wait. What is the friggin shit happening? "Are you sure? All I have to do is to kill her?" This story has been stolen from Royal Road. If you read it on Amazon, please report it "Yes. Kill her. She''s nothing and not even an important part of the family." "But Ellain will be devastated when she learns that her beloved sister is dead." "Devastated? That''s the least thing she''ll do. She wanted the fatty dead. And if you can, you can torture her first. No one will come and look for her. She''s alone. Do what you need to do. I''ll handle her followers. Do it or the hero will revoke the contract for his protection of our kingdom. A small sacrifice will save us." I can''t contain my anger when the next scene plays. There, in the middle of nowhere, the owner of the memory, was barely alive after the men raped her. They treat her like an animal. Despite her constant begging, the men keep on playing with her body, doing what crazy men can. Damn it. I can''t watch it anymore. I''m furious right now. I can''t watch the poor young woman being tortured and hearing her pain and agony. But something is making me watch. I hate it! Stop! I can''t watch it anymore. "Warning: Host 1''s emotion is unstable." "Injecting Stabilizer at the limit, initiated" I watch as those addicts stab the woman''s body multiple times before rolling her near the cliff and throwing her down. "Host one is stabilized." What the actual shit was that? What the hell did I watch? Who is that woman? And here I thought I had the worst experience but hers isn''t even half of what I had. "Memories of Host 2 has successfully transferred." "Phase two: Merging host 1 and host 2 will commence now. Selective memories will be checked thoroughly. Host 1 will undergo temporary sleep until the merging is done." To make commands. What is actually happening? I died but¡­my eyes became heavy and with that, I closed my eyes and fell into sleep. "Merging is done. Phase 3 will commence now." I''m sleeping, I know that but I can still hear the voices. "Phase 3: Emotion Deletion initiated." "The new host will undergo an emotion elimination detection. This is mandatory. Consent of the new host is unnecessary." "Checking¡­" "Love, joy, and kindness detected." "Proceed in eliminating¡­" "Failed¡­" "Attempt to eliminate¡­." "Failed¡­" "Attempt to eliminate¡­" "Failed¡­" What elimination? Failed? What the actual hell is going on!? "Warning: Emotions of humans are retained. Unnecessary emotion should be eliminated otherwise host 1 will be a failure. Two attempts are done. One more attempt determines if host 1 is a success or another failure." "Proceed?" "What are you going to do, Hera? If this one comes out a failure, your plan will be futile," I hear a voice, it''s somewhat angelic to my ears. "I believe in this one, Selene. She will be our last hope. I know. She''ll be¡­" "Attempt to eliminate unnecessary emotions¡­" "Success!" "Oh my goodness! It''s a success! I told you, Selene! I selected her myself! She will be pleased. I know!" "Will we be free from her?" "Yes¡­yes. We all have to begin the last phase. Present the host to her and she''ll take over" Suddenly I felt like something had left me, something was important but I couldn''t remember what they were. "Preparing for the fourth phase. Initiating." "Generating a new body for the host." "Failed" "Failed" "No available body to use." "Propose the second host body¡­" "Accepted." "Preparing the second host''s body." "Initiating¡­" "Wounds and stabs are healed. Broken bones aligned. The body changes to fit the new host''s ability." "The changes are done. The body is ready to use." "Transferring the Host''s soul into the body¡­" "Transferring succeeds!" "Very good girls," I hear a deeper voice of a woman. It sounds like bad news to me and I feel the girls fear the newcomer. "I told you, you could make me a new daughter if you wanted to." "Queen Nyx¡­" "It''s Goddess for you, imbeciles. Know your place, lesser deities!" came a man''s voice. "Engineer, it''s okay. Our guess work was a success. I can spare them and their little Patheon now," says the one whose voice is coated with venom and darkness. "You can go." "Scram!" the man says. "So, do you think she''s ready?" the woman named Nyx said. "Yes, she is, Your Grace." "Do you think she''ll survive? The Architect''s design is harsh and neither of my first champions survived." "I believe in this one, Goddess. Even in her human self, I see some potential and she knows the basics. With the system, she''ll be the ultimate champion you will have." "I trust her in your and the Architect''s hands, Engineer. Do not fail me." "Yes, Goddess." "The host is ready. Would you like to proceed with taking her to the Infinite Tower?" "Yes," the male voice said. "Transferring initiated. The host will wake up upon arriving." Chapter 2 When I open my eyes for the second time around, I find myself in the middle of luscious tall trees. The trees are tall and with vibrant green to dark green leaves which can not be seen on Earth. Before me was a gigantic tower. I had never seen such a huge tower that almost reached the sky. According to the voices, this tower is what they called the Infinite Tower. "Good morning. My name is Psyche, your destined guide to Infinite Tower. Unlike the other voiceless system, I was made only to cater to you, Violet Everdeen Champion number 10,008,567,82. I''ll be displaying your own status. I can guide you to be strong." "Talking Tactical Guide? Psyche?" "Yes. I am programmed specifically to get you strong before you deploy to the promised world. I can answer specific questions." You do? "Yes." "So where am I? I''m sure I died but why am I here?" "My apology, the questions exceed my ability to answer." I roll my eyes. "Yeah, sure you can''t." "Would you like to view your status instead?" "Okay." *Violet''s Status Screen* Name: Violet Cruize.

This is just like a game I played before!" "Pardon?" "Nothing," I say. "Tell me when are we entering the tower?" "You must choose your weapons and essential needs first before entering. I''ll explain everything about the tower from the lowest to the highest floor, please listen carefully." "Okay." "Lower floors consist of lower-level monsters and humans alike. As you level up, and reach a specific required level, you will be able to enter. The more you enter the higher floor, the more difficult it gets, and the stronger opponents you need to defeat. Killing floor bosses will grant you special items, weapons, or skills. And also there''s only one condition for you: three-time revival. Exceeding the limit of death, you will be deemed dead. Unable to resurrect or revive. Keep in your mind that every time you die, you will return to the first floor you have already conquered." "What happens to me if I die the fourth time?" "You will be thrown to the depths of where you should be." "Like hell?" "Yes, given the amount of the humans you have killed-" "Okay, okay. Stop." "Well, should we continue?" "Sure, go ahead." "Very well. Now, please choose the beginner weapon you want to bring along with you. Choices are: *Dual blade of Dragon fangs (assassin) *Sword of Rose (Claymore) *Bow of fate (archer) *Book and staff of Aaron (mage) You are free to take any one of them" "Can I take them all instead?" "You can only take two. Each of these weapons can also enhance and level up according to your need." "Okay," I say and check all the weapons displayed before me. If I want a light weapon to carry around and often use, I should go for dual daggers. But if I want a long-range weapon which I am also good at, I need to have the bow. Yes. Daggers and the bow are made for me. I go to the daggers and bow. "If you made your weapon choice, you can choose essential items here." The only essential items I see are food potions, futons, and water. I don''t see any personal hygiene in Psych choices. Well, whatever, I pick twenty food potions, a futon, and a lot of bottled water. I store them all inside my dimensional box. "Are you ready?" "Yes." The huge door opens up silently. A feeling of fear greets me which makes my knees feel jelly. "Holy cow. Are you sure the lowest floors are the home of weakest opponents?" "Yes." "So, why the hell am I feeling wanting to run away?" "You can''t cancel everything when the door is already open. There is a punishment for disobeying what needs to be done." "And the punishment is?" "Ultimate death." "Ultimate death?" "Yes. Ultimate death is the process of killing your soul. When your soul undergoes death, you lose your chance to be reborn again. So are you ready to enter?" "Okay." "Good luck." I step inside and meet by a bronze door and observe it. Appraisal report: Infinite tower lower level: Floor 1000 Class: F Description: Home of Lower monster levels ranging from level 1 to 5 Danger Level: Easy Number of opponents: unknown Easy-peasy. I believe I can conquer this floor. I have fought elite and even skilled enemies, in close combat before. I know I can do it. "Oh, you''re confident" "Heh, the Goddess Nyx believed in me and she specially chose me." "Welcome to floor 1000, Champion 10,008,567,82." "Conquer the floor to gain points and level up. You can use those points to level up your attributes." "Is that all I need to do?" "Yes. And remember, the system arranged and carefully constructed by the Engineer and Architect will activate the moment you open the door. Would you like to proceed?" "Bring it on." The door opens up, swinging like it''s nothing despite its massive size. "The system has activated" Quest name: How far can your human emotion push you? Tasks: Kill your opponents at 10080 minutes. Warning: Failure to kill within the allotted time, will be punished. Refuse to execute the tasks, you will be punished. Heh, bring it on! I pull my daggers to prepare myself. You will never know when the enemy attacks. "Oh, look what we have here," I hear a voice before me. I look at the source of the voice, and I see a girl, smirking at me, and as soon as the light coming from giant candles line each side of the floor starts to light, their lights illuminate the sea of girls ranging from teen to adult. Oh, this is shit. "What''s wrong Violet? Just a moment ago, you were confident to conquer this floor and now, I can sense your confusion." "I do kill for living back on Earth but killing humans without knowing what they had done, I can''t!" "Well, if you refuse to kill them, they will kill you. Remember, you only have 3 chances of revival. And the punishment. The system will punish you." Damn. "Charge! Kill her like you did to the previous champions before her!" I tighten my grip around the hilt of mga daggers and brace myself for the upcoming collision. Chapter 3 I''m exhausted, panting, and damn thirsty. I hadn''t eaten when I entered this damn floor. The girls'' number has been increasing. If I kill two, another four will be added. There''s no ending to this damn fight. "The remaining time is: 5000 minutes, Violet? I think you''re having a hard time." "Shut up, Psyche, I can still stand, can''t you see? I''ll finish this until the last strength I have in me!" "Charge! Charge! Don''t give her time to rest!" The girl who is the leader is still standing above me and leading her army of women towards me. I used my appraisal skill on her. And I find she''s the floor boss. Appraisal result: Name: Mabelle Arc Level: 5 Title: Floor Dungeon Skill: Scream of Leader Strength: 5 This bitch leading the lower-level women and it''s a non-stop fight. Damn it. I''m glad I don''t have to eat like a normal human but damn this is exhausting as hell. I need to end this and kill her otherwise I''ll die here. My body''s refusing to move. As the girls charge, my daggers'' blades are coated now with red liquid and the smell of metallic scent overwhelmed my nose. Mabel is laughing seeing how tired I am now. "Hah! Do you think you can still survive, Champion? Those champions before you succumbed to their exhaustion and collapsed on the floor. You will soon end up like them." "Shut up!" I yell at her. "Don''t look down on me, bitch. I can still fight. And when I''m done killing your minions, you will be the next. So by then, prepare yourself." "What? Hah! You''re all talk unlike the others," she says and then looks at her women. "Make sure to kill the bastard now. You have been fighting her longer than expected." And just like that, another wave of women came running towards me. There will be no end to this unless I kill the boss. I remember the game I once played when I was still a young girl. I was furious and frustrated when I couldn''t move onto another floor due to the never-ending enemies. By then, when I accidentally killed the hidden boss, everything stopped and a door leading me to another floor opened up for me. Heh, since this is a game-like game for me, there must be a similarity to this. Ah, I smirk. There''s something in my dimension box that is usable for a long-range attack. I look at Mabel who''s leading her army. She''s standing on an escalated platform. Showing me how defenseless she is as she barks to her women. Yes, that weapon will shut her mouth. All I need to do is to distance myself from the wave of women. "Psyche," I called my assistant. "Yes?" "Switch my dangers to the Bow of fate." The genuine version of this novel can be found on another site. Support the author by reading it there. "Understood." My blood-coated daggers vanish and a green bow appears on my right hand. I stop running after making sure I have enough distance to strike, I fill my lungs with air aim the bow toward Mabel, and pull the thin string towards me. An almost transparent arrow appears and is ready to release. I let go of the air in my lungs together with the arrow, aiming at Mabel. "She''s getting away! Attack! Att-" The arrow pierces Mabel''s forehead just like what I aimed for. Mabel collapsed along with her army of women. Just like I predicted. Kill the floor boss and the game will end. I laugh and collapse on the floor exhausted like shit but laughing and panting at the same time. "You have conquered the floor 1000. Time freezes at 3500 minutes." "Rewards: Skill: Scream of Leader Acquired Title: Leader of Amazonian Attribute points: 100 Experience: 1000 Loot from killing Floor Boss: (Weapons) *Daggers of wicked *Bow of Tears *Spear of East Winds "Congratulations, Champion Violet for conquering the lowest floor of Infinite Tower. You received 1000 experiences which make you a level 10 now, 100 attribute points, a skill, and weapons. Would you like to use it?" "Spare me a moment, Psyche. I''m still catching my breath." "Oh, all right but to remind you, you only have an hour and a half before you teleport to the next door." "What!? Is this a joke or a prank? I haven''t recovered yet and another door will open for me?" "My apology, Champion Violet. The infinite tower and your system don''t care whether you are exhausted, wounded, or on the verge of death. You will be sent to another high-level door and will only stop until you die and your revival changes are used up." "Shit. This is torture." "This is a must. It will determine how far you can go and if you are the one to lead them all." "Lead what?" "I''m not allowed to answer your question. Moving on, would you like me to assist you in using your rewards?" "You know Psyche, you are suspicious but yeah help me a bit." "Understood. Let me show you your status in a screen menu."

I''m aiming for a tank with speed and not only physically strong but also a magic user." "Pardon? I don''t quite understand." "Moving on¡­ are there any available materials to level up my newly acquired weapons?" "Allow me to check the dimensional box and see if I can find any materials for weapon leveling." I''m now one hundred percent sure that my situation is the same as the game. You level up, power up to defeat the final boss, the villain, and then end the game. Compared to my old job from my old self, this is more fun. I don''t regret this reincarnation thing. It''s fun! I''m like the Hero! Chapter 4 "The materials for weapons for leveling are stored in your dimensional box. Choose what weapon you want to enhance to level up." "I need the Bow and Daggers to level up." "How about the spear? You still have enough materials to level it up." "No. I don''t know how to use Spears." "Understood. Should we proceed then?" "Yes." A weapon screen appeared before me. "Check the weapon attribute in this screen." Weapon: Daggers of Wicked Type: Daggers Level: 1/20 Refinement: 1 Class: E (the higher the level and refinement the higher the class will be determined) Weapon Attribution: Attack: 39 Critical damage: 10.2% Note: When equipped and the wielder has 50% hp left, the weapon will increase the wielder''s 14% crit rate. When the wielder''s hp decreases up to 15%, the weapon will increase 30% And increase the critical damage up to 50%.

In the off-fighting area, the damage will increase by 4% per second and deal 30% damage to the target. "Wow! Do such weapons exist? I think weapons dropped by killing the boss are awesome." "Would you like to proceed with leveling the weapons up?" "Yes!" "Understood." Psyche becomes quiet for at least 60 seconds. While waiting, I decide to check the food potions hoping it''ll make my HP full before another door opens up for me. Appraisal Result: Name: Food Potion Class: F Type: food Attribute: Adds 15% Hp for each bottle. Decreasing Fatigue by 2 Decreasing hunger by 30% Note: 2 food potions are allowed to eat. Eating more will not increase the buff and effect. Nice. I ate 2 food potions and I still feel partially hungry. Damn it. I want to eat real food. "Weapons are refined and leveled up by 20. You can check the weapon stats from the previous stats and now." Unauthorized reproduction: this story has been taken without approval. Report sightings. All right. It''s about time. The weapon screen status appeared before me. Weapon: Daggers of wicked Woah! Check out the appearance of the daggers. They were so dull before levelling and refining but check them out now! The daggers are completely transformed into something else. They used to be plain white short and straight blades but now, they are slightly curved and with smooth edges and I can tell they are sharp just by looking at how thin the edges are now. The Bow, omg! Such a brilliant red color! The bow is now a perfect C shape with flashy details and the glowing string is a plus. It used to be a boring wooden bow but now, it appears to have evolved into a bow that is made from a gemstone, a ruby to be exact! "Are you sure they are the same weapon I gave you?" "Yes. I''m 100% sure. Weapons do change their appearance after leveling up and enhancement. They are Class C now." Type: Daggers Level: 20/40 (Wielder needs to level up for further leveling up) Refinement: 20/40 (level the weapon for further refinements) Class: D (Final Class. Further leveling and refinement will not affect the Class) Weapon Attribution: Attack: 80 Critical damage: 60.2% Note: When equipped and the wielder has 30% hp left, the weapon will increase the wielder''s 50% crit rate. When the wielder''s hp drops to 2%, the weapon will increase the critical damage up to 100%. Weapon: Bow of Tears Type: Bow Level: 20/40 Wielder needs to level up for further leveling up) Refinement: 20/40 Wielder needs to level up for further leveling up) Class: D (Final Class. Further leveling and refinement will not affect the Class) Weapon attribute: Attack: 90 Critical Attack: 60.0% Note: The wielder is in the fighting area, the bow damage will increase by 20% every second up to a max of 60%. In the off-fighting area, the damage will increase 30% per second and deal 100% damage to the target. "If you equip any of the weapons, your status attribute will increase. Which weapon would you like to equip?" "The daggers." "Understood" "A door will appear in 30 minutes. Prepare yourself." Shit, I almost forgot about the System! I checked my HP and it''s still: 500/800. The time allotted is not enough. Damn it. "The door will appear in: 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1" A wider double door appeared before me, slightly larger than the first one. I guess resting is over now. I stand up and prepare myself. "Quest name: How fast you can be Task: Conquer the floor at 10080 minutes Warning: Failure to conquer the floor within the allotted time is punishable. Punishment: To be determined. After the system drops its task like a bomb, the door opens up and I step in. A few seconds after the door shut, I hear a loud screeching sound like a witch''s laugh. In the darkness, pairs of red eyes glow even before the floor''s candlelights turn on. Pointed green ears, sharp teeth, crook noses, and green skin are definitely, Goblins. Behind those thousand goblins, is their boss. Appraisal result: Name: No name Race: King of Goblin Level: 15 Skill: Monarchy expand dimension Strength: 30 Speed: 15 Shit, he''s bad news. The Goblin King roared and the goblins started to charge. They''re fast! Before I can even think of anything, one of them hit me with its cleaver. It hurts as hell. Hp: 449/800 -1 I watch my ass for that cleaver. The damage is freaking disastrous. Since then, I have tried my best to dodge the club as I inflict wounds on my enemies. "You only have 3000 minutes left, Violet. You need to go near the boss otherwise your time will be up." "I''m trying. But goblins flock around him. I tried to go near him but the goblins surrounding him are stronger." I wipe the blood from my cheek and look at the smirking Goblin King. "Well, in case you''re missing it. The Goblin King activated his skill, "Monarchy Expand Dimension." "He what? Explain." "Monarchy Expand Dimension is a skill that buffs all the individuals surrounding the owner of the skill. The Goblin king can strengthen, and more. He can basically create a goblin as strong as him." Hp: 250/800 "So basically, he''s making his goblins as strong as him?" "Yes." I stop and look at the Goblin King smirking at me. He''s trying to tell me that I''ll die here. Like I will allow him. "What should I do? I need something that can deactivate his skill." "You don''t have a skill that can cancel his skill but you do something that can occupy his minions while you attack him." "What is it?" "Scream of Leader. The one you acquired when you defeated Mabel. Would you like to activate it?" "Yes!" "Skill: Scream of Leader activated" A yellow circle appears under me. The yellow circle expands further until it reaches the Goblin King''s location. Coming from the circle, thousands of high-level female warriors emerge from it and start to attack the Goblins. The Goblins'' attention is diverted from protecting the Goblin King or fighting the female warriors. They choose the latter. "Now, we''re even," I say and charge towards him. Furious, the Goblin King takes his huge cleaver and prepares himself. He swings his cleaver towards me but I dodges it. He swings again but I jump back in order to dodge it. The Goblin King keeps swinging his cleaver, preventing me from getting closer to him. I can use the Bow but I need to distance myself from him which is impossible. Even if he''s fat and large, he''s surprisingly fast. I need to think, otherwise the time will be over before I can even defeat him. I need something that can hold that damn cleaver even for a short time. "Aside from the Scream of Leader you also have other skills which I know can be helpful." "How many skills do you know that can help me?" "Well, you haven''t activated it yet." "Whatever! Just activate it! The time is almost running out!" "As you wish. Skill: Chain of Adamant activated." As soon as the word activated has been mentioned, the loud rattles of chains dominate the entire floor. "What is that, Psyche?" "Your skill of course." "Damn it!" "My apology. That is the rattle of chains coming from Erebus, the place where the Chain of Adamant comes from. Brace yourself as you will witness one of the scariest skills." The floor starts to shake and a crack appears under the Goblin King. The Goblin King tried to jump away but three, black chains, the size of my arm, oozed with black smoke. One chain wrapped his leg, preventing him from escaping. The other targets his cleaver and the third wraps his neck. The Goblin King tries to move but to no avail, the chains hold him tight. Seeing the Goblin King unable to move, I ran towards him, jumping on his chained-down cleaver, climbing on his arm until I reached his head and burying my daggers in his thick head. I pull my daggers back and jump away from him. The Goblin King screams before he dies. "Quest Completed! You conquered the Floor and defeated the Floor Boss."
