Life Of A Nobody - as a Villain

Chapter 176 System online - calculating +99999

After reaching their house, Rio instantly excused himself from Patricia and left for his room. He didn't want to start another talk and reveal something that could put his plans in peril. After all, even just talking about questions in a roundabout way won't save his secrets, as with her innate ability of color vision and blessing of probability, she can just cut whatever guesses she comes up with, until she finds the real reason and truth.

Color vision, an ability which helps one to see world in a form of different colors. Every emotion, every feelings and expression seems different in colors to the users eyes. Every sentiment and intention were laid bare to her, their true nature displayed in a spectrum of hues.

With this ability, lying to her was a joke. That's why Rio also said, she could perceive his bloodlust just by a glance, despite whatever barrier that seprated them.

[She was like Jack the ripper from record of ragnarok, but less criminally insane and more rationally smart.]

Blessing of probability, a skill of goddess of chance Tyche, once learned can allow the one to see possible outcomes of any situations. This blessing wouldn't be that broken but she had perfected it and even managed to merge it with other blessings of similar effects, and upgraded it. The result was an elevated version that not only showed her the possibilities but also lets her take a peek into the cause and effects of certain situations. This upgrade gave her another formidable edge, setting her apart from others who had similar gifts.

He was curious about how much of his plans she guessed and confirmed, but he didn't have the guts to go and confirm his doubts. He did learn some skills that can hinder her powers, knowing he would need it someday. But his mastery over them was much less than what he hoped for.

"Don't let anyone in."

Rio ordered Aina, and went inside his room, locking it with the formations he placed himself around the door.

After knowing he was alone, he just lay down on his bed and called for his system. But even after waiting for next 2 minutes he got nothing, no reply.

"Why're you so silent? Don't tell me you died again?"?He said.

A familiar voice resonated within his mind this time. [I was just going through your memories of everything you did in the past 8 years.]

A hint of playful sarcasm laced Rio's response. "And, was that too little?"

[Too little, is the time you spent in that dungeon. What were you thinking trying to do that?] System asked in a surprised tone. The audacity of this host to joke, even after everything that happened.

"I was just trying to solve annoying people, before they become annoying problems." Rio defended himself

[And look where that led you, I hate to say I told you so, but I told you so.]

[Luck, fate, heavens - you've read so many s, so many stories, why the hell did you forget them? Do you know you could've died back then, and no one would've been able to save you.]

"That wasn't my plan. Shit just went haywire with the academy, Warzy and his interference." Rio retorted, his irritation mounting at the system's criticism.

However instead of backing down, system countered back [Of course, he'd interfere. Did you think he was gonna sit back and let you kill all of them? And trusting a heroine, that too the hero's sister - I thought you were smarter than that.]

System's words annoyed him, as it reminded him of all his missteps and mistakes.

"Spare me the lecture, you know what was going to happen if I let everything be. That was the only option. And besides, I've learned my lesson and I'm still alive. So forget it now."

System could only sigh at his words. It really came across a weird one this time. Who the fuck tries to do that? If not for this guy's weird brain and that being's watchful eyes on him, system would've really liked to pry open and see, what's wrong with this guy. It literally went into an error 404 , 2 times before it finally rebooted at level 1.

"Now ignore all this and skip your demo or promo or whatever you got at level 1. Just show me everything that's changed."

Rio asked, changing the topic back to system and other things. Since plot had started now, system was upgraded to level 1 , so he needed to learn everything that changed and plan accordingly.

The students were given a week's time after the celebration, before they have to report back to the academy. After that, they had another week of time, to just live in their dorms and get familirized with the academy's surroundings and everything else.

For that week, there'd be tours around the academy so new students don't get lost and need a finger to guide them to classes when sessions start. There would also be briefings and demo's of history and basic introctions of rules and laws to follow in the academy.

This one week free time, also allowed new students to get used to living there. And learn about their batchmates.

Since Rio had already been there for a whole year, he didn't need to go through all that. But since Amelia needed too, he couldn't ignore it. Who knows if he let her go there, and protagonist's luck pulled him across her. There are too many weird nonsensical coincidences written in harem dramas - he didn't want any of that shit to happen around her.

So now he only had a week before the academy starts, and he joins the frey with all the characters.

In this time, he needed to utilize his system and all those points he earned, to get some stuff and learn some skills. Since the system boasted that it's shop has everything, he had actually made a bucket list of stuff he could buy and get to make his plans smoother.

[Ding]

[Great villain system bound with the host]

[Congratulations on surviving for all this time. Your perseverance have paid off and now you have your trusted companion ba_]

"I think I told you to skip all this bullshit." Rio said as he slapped the system panel. Obviously his hands passed through empty air, but who cares.

He especially gave that order and here was this dumb AI recounting it's sad cliched lines again.

"You know what, just ignore everything - show me my points." Rio said, knowing this system was too dumb to understand complex commands.

(And here I thought he'd miss me. Sigh, these useless hosts. No respect for their system.) System thought and switched the panels.

[Notifications +9999??]

[Checking world data . . .

[Calculating the changes . . .

[Calculating. . .

[. . .

'Sigh don't tell me, it's gonna go into overload by how much I've changed stuff. Will it need a month or two to count points?' Rio looking at that search button wanted to curse himself for thinking anything from this system. It needed a day to count the points of Noah's death, how long would it take for it to count points for, hundreds of characters he changed fates of.

Even the simple recent massacres his father caused against Warzy, had probably ruined many plotlines. Let alone, all he did in the 6 years before that.

But unlike Rio's thoughts, which drafted to if he should close this panel and sleep , or go and eat something made by the chef heroine. 'She really does make good food. I should just go and get something to eat.'

[Calculations complete]

[Major changes in plotlines +999??

[Finished plotlines -91??

[Altered fate of characters -61??

[Stolen chances -786??

[Minor changes -5854??

[Points distribution…

[....

[....

[....

[Total points - 968065

(How in the hell is this still the same) system thought, wanting to cry at all the entertainment it would miss cause it's host ruined so many plotlines already. This was the first time it came across a host as crazy as this, who the hell goes out of his way, just to steal some stuff for fun. (Was he a thief)

Even Rio, who was prepared and estimated quite some points was shocked seeing the numbers. How long would he need to go through all those notifications, no that's too much.

His shock increased even more when he remembered, it was all before plot started. Which means according to Noah's death example, if he did all this after plot started he would've gotten around 4 times that amount.

'Damn I really went all out huh.'

'This world won't just collapse cause I messed up too much right'

'Well, atleast it's all over. Now that plot has begun _ '

Rio was thinking something, when system heard his thoughts and remembered, that it forgot to count the points of today. It only checked the points while it was asleep.

[Calculating. . .

"What now?" Rio asked, surprised, that there was still something more.

[Your points of today. When you showed up and stolen the protagonist's limelight and ruined his entrance moment. Not to forget that hug from his sister and hit to their reputation.]

"..."
