None of her family members seem to have expected it. After all, most people keep the name they have been given at birth throughout their entire lives. They may become known by a nickname or use a pseudonym for various things, but people's real names were rarely changed. That is not to say it was impossible, or even hard to do. Some people who did not like their names did end up changing them, often before high school. It's not like Danielle's parents had never heard of it, after all. They just never…

"W-What is it… why are you looking at me like that?" Emilia poked her index finger into the girl's soft cheeks. "Well, I'm thinking I really want to take a bite out of your face." "I would rather you don't?" She smiled. "Then how about a kiss?" Cynthia rolled her eyes. "Can you be serious?" Emilia collapsed back on the bed by her side once again, giving Cynthia a pitiful look. Not only were the missions so deplorable, her partner didn't want to comfort her at all. The emerald eyed girl…

Emilia rolled her eyes, feeling that Cynthia was really too obsessed with this whole villainess thing. After a brief journey through the void, the two of them appeared in a luxuriously decorated modern room. Emilia briefly gave a sympathetic nod to the distraught looking girl on the bed before she was sent to the 'inner world'. This girl was, of course, the 'villainess' of this world—Danielle White. After knowing what the girl was supposed to go through, and that Cynthia had already imparted…

"You're the what…?" The girl squinted her gem like green eyes, looking insulted. "The Villainess System! A perfect match for a villainous young lady like you! If you become my partner and help me with some missions, who knows, maybe we can even go back to the world you just died in. Weren't you clamoring about it just a few moments ago?" Did she dare to hope? Turns out she was quite daring indeed, as Emilia felt hope reignite in her heart. "Really? Is that really true?!" The dark-haired girl…

In his first life, he had no name. His duty was to protect and obey the crown prince of the kingdom, and his entire life was dedicated to that singular cause. His mind and body were trained to the point where the crown prince did not even need to speak for his will to be obeyed. He did not know who he was, or where he came from. Nor was he allowed to ask such questions. Countless people who offended the crown prince died by his hands. Many for absurdly mundane reasons, such as not bowing to the…

Silas felt his energy draining as the wisps pressed closer. He could see the strain on his friends' faces as they struggled to maintain their mana beams. It was clear this tactic wouldn't work. "Switch to weapons!" Silas shouted, drawing his war hammer. "Use your mana to empower them!" The others followed suit, their weapons glowing with magical energy. But fighting in such close quarters proved challenging. Jace's daggers sliced through the air, barely missing the nimble wisps. Rowan's sword and…-

Silas watched as chaos unfolded around him. The banshees' wails pierced the air, their ghostly forms swooping through the ballroom. Students and faculty scrambled in panic, their elegant attire now disheveled and torn. Amidst the mayhem, Silas's eyes locked onto Jace. His friend stood frozen, horror etched across his face as he witnessed a terrifying scene unfold. The girl he'd been dancing with moments ago now dangled helplessly in the grasp of a banshee. The spirit's skeletal fingers curled around her…

"Unbound is dedicated to dismantling the corrupt system that governs Eldoria," Lyra said, her eyes burning with a fierce intensity. "We aim to tear down the nepotism and concentrated power that keeps the elite in control." Silas felt a mix of surprise and intrigue wash over him. He had always sensed an undercurrent of discontent in magical society, but he'd never imagined there was an organized resistance. Lyra continued, her voice tinged with a hint of pride and sorrow. "I was born into Unbound. My…

Silas leaned back against his mount, his mind wandering through the intricate web of his newfound abilities. The system interface flickered before his eyes, revealing a fresh array of skill trees. Among them, a new addition caught his attention - the water affinity tree. A faint smile tugged at the corner of his mouth as he examined the lone skill nestled within: Water Jet. It seemed simple enough, allowing him to create a stream of water at will. While not particularly flashy, Silas couldn't help but…

Silas, Jace, Rowan, Nadia, and Lyra huddled together, their voices a mix of excitement and disbelief as they recounted their individual battles. "I can't believe we actually fought goblins and ogres," Jace said. "It's one thing to read about them in books, but to face them in real combat..." Rowan nodded, his usually stoic expression softened by a hint of pride. "We held our own, though. I'm surprised my summons did as well as they did. Not like the fight with the basilisk." "Your summons were…
