Villain of my own novel

A few weeks later.

Rank-SSS gate spawn rates have been going up recently, and the mana density has also increased, pushing a whole rank of the low-ranked players. Some even wondered what would have happened to the common people if they hadn't awoken as players; if they had still stayed as the same rank-F or E-ranked heroes from before, they would have undoubtedly died under the mana pressure in the atmosphere.

Coming back to the main topic, the Rank-SSS gates, which posed an extreme level of danger to the people who were prompting members of the player association to do their job properly,

And these remarks thrown at the association, brings us to the current predicament.

In a sleek, spotless white room, 6 figures, 3 men and 3 women sat around a roundtable with solemn atmosphere around them. Stan Walton, Dwayne Knight, and Lenna Romero, the association chairmen, sat with serious expressions while going through a small booklet of a report on the situation in the human domain. And those who sat next to them were, Seo Hana, Elise Ryan, and Alex Turner, the association squad captains, while Hana had a deep frown on her beautiful face, feeling uneasy about something.

"We are in dire need of preparing a squad to raid a Rank-SSS gate, to at least get information on what to expect from the SSS rank gates." Lenna Romero said with a sigh. And it was something that would naturally be agreed unanimously, but of course, if Seo Hana wasn't there.

"And who do plan to send in? Don't tell me you plan to sacrifice a few dozen people just for your "greater good."" Seo Hana said with a snort. I received five deep sighs in response.

"What?" Seo Hana grumbled and elbowed at Elise, whose sigh was a lot louder.

"Please don't talk; it isn't the time to think too deeply about such matters; if we don't do this, then a lot more people will die." "Can you take responsibility for that when it happens?" Lenna Romero asked while shaking her head, slightly disappointed with the young woman's naive way of thinking.

CRA-CRACK

SHATTER

"!!!" The entire room was alerted by the sudden crack in space beside them, and the gate was a bit too familiar to them; it was something only vampires and fiends used when attacking the human domain.

"I come in peace, at least for this time." A woman wearing a bright red maxi dress walked out of the crack; she had dark brown hair and eyes with soft facial features.

"Mairéad!" Seo Hana mumbled under her breath while gritting her teeth and employing mana in her body. Mairéad was "the queen" of the graveyard, the vampire association. Though Azazel was killed by Eshwar, they weren't sure about this woman, who was far more terrifying than Azazel himself, because every time the human domain faced massive losses, this woman was behind every single one of them.

"Why did you come here if you weren't here for a fight?" Stan Walton spoke up. And Seo Hana's frown and uneasiness got heavier, because he, Stan Walton, the weakest of the six present in the room spoke up, and to Seo Hana it seemed like Stan Walton had expected it.

"Eshwar. I want the head of the person who dared to kill my beloved." Mairéad said in a overbearing tone.

"How dare y...." Seo Hana roared with a glare but was cut short by Stan Walton.

"And how do we do that? And what do we get in return?" Stan Walton asked with a nonchalant expression and a small smile on his face.

'This son of a bit*h had already made contact with the vampires to plot against Eshwar!!' Seo Hana understood why she was feeling uneasy from the moment she entered this goddamn room!

"About the matters from before, send him into the Rank-SSS gate and blow up the gate from outside to lock him in it, and in return for killing him, the graveyard will form an alliance with the human domain. If you reject this offer, I won't call off declaring war against the human domain!" Mairéad said, though everybody had already understood that Stan Walton had made contact with the graveyard before calling for this meeting, but the offer wasn't something that they could pass on, especially at this moment, and they definitely cannot afford a war against the vampires right now.

"What? You didn't say this before!!!" Stan yelled in outrage, causing everybody to sigh in disappointment, but he suddenly covered his mouth as if he had just realised that he had just misspoken.

"This goddamn son of a bit*h even sucks at acting." Seo Hana yelled loudly, "involuntarily."

"Hana, you're speaking your thoughts aloud." Elise said from behind. And Seo Hana covered her mouth as if she too misspoke, acting exactly like Stan Walton.

"We rejec..." Seo Hana roared, but was cut short again, but this time it was Dwayne Knight.

"We'll agree to it." He said, catching everybody off guard.

After Seo Hana tried to reason and argue with everybody even though she too understood their reasoning, but,

"He is Rank-SSS hero! Who can be the only hope of the human domain, and you want to sell him out? You guys are out of your goddamn minds!!!" Seo Hana roared at them with annoyance, but her argument was ignored because they thought that sacrificing a few people according to their earlier plan was something they would have to do for the people, so adding Eshwar to the expedition team won't bring any major losses to them, and if they could have an alliance with the vampires, then their forces would increase and they can fully focus on the Rank-SSS gates. And this discussion was done right in front of Seo Hana, who was more disgusted by the association than ever before.

She felt sick just by being in their presence, and before they completed the meeting with Mairéad's presence, she barged out of the room after cutting her friend ties with Elise Ryan and Alex Turner, who were agreeing to the plot against Eshwar.

BAM

"F**king disgusting people." Seo Hana roared loudly, causing a strong tremor in the association building. She had determined to resign from the association, and if they didn't agree to it, then she decided to destroy the association building. And she instantly called Eshwar to warn him about their plot against him.

[Hello.] Eshwar picked up the call and greeted her, but she abruptly realised that she was still in the association building and,

[Hold on a minute.] Hana said and jumped off of a window, flying off towards the sky.

WHOOSH

[I need to speak to you, now.] Seo Hana said, and maybe because he felt the seriousness in her voice, he agreed to it, calling her over to a certain place.
