DOOMED TO BE A VILLAIN

Chapter 48 CHAPTER 48: OUTSIDE THE GATE



**Outside the gate… 6 days ago…**

The mana around the gate suddenly in quantity and mana constructs shaped like chains wrapped around the gate.

This sudden change startled everyone outside the gate and they literally froze in shock.

Mission gates were just that rare.

A few moments later, the momentary freeze in shock disappeared as if it never existed in the first place and a mad frenzy took over.

The media that was waiting around the gate and had taken a few pictures of Davies and the B-Squad before they had gone into the gate were now flashing their cameras at full power towards the gate and taking pictures every second.

At that moment, almost everyone had forgotten about the people who had just gone into the gate… almost everyone.

Daniel was just short of panicking, but his knowledge about Davies told him that he should be able to handle a B-rank dungeon, but the uncertainty of what could happen inside a mission gate plagued his mind constantly.

He did manage to stay calm in the end, but he resigned himself to wait here until his boss came out of the gate…

**Somewhere else in Yorkshire City (still 6 days away from present time)**

Inside a rundown house in a terrible neighborhood, Lee Jung could be seen raging around inside the self-contained room that he hadn\'t managed to pay the rent for in the last 3 months, "How dare that bastard fire me for something that wasn\'t my fault,"

"How could he be so unreasonable to expect me to use my body to protect his car…"

"Ahhh… I\'m not reconciled! He is even forcing Miss Jessica to go out with him,"

"I wish I had the power to go against people like him,"

"I\'ll trample on him…" Lee Jung was in the middle of his ranting fantasies when a sudden voice from inside his head interrupted him,

[System binding to host]

"Huh?"

"What\'s that?" Lee Jung was visibly shocked by the strange monotone voice and the blue holographic screen that suddenly appeared in front of his eyes and he stumbled backward and fell onto his worn-down bed.

*CREEEAAK*

*CRASH*

The poor bed could not take another body slam and ended up breaking with a loud crash.

"JUNG BASTARD!!!"

"WHAT ARE YOU BREAKING UP THERE HUH!!!???"

"YOU DON\'T PAY RENT, BUT YOU STILL HAVE THE NERVE TO BREAK STUFF!!!"

"YOU USELESS PIECE OF SH*T, MOTHERFU*KING BAST-" all sorts of obscenities came from the lower floor; obviously the angry landlord was screaming obscenities all while charging up the stairs towards Lee Jung\'s apartment\'s door.

It took more than thirty minutes of constant begging and cajoling and promises to pay for everything to be able to make the landlord leave Lee Jung alone and not tear him up to pieces.

"Phew…" Lee Jung heaved a sigh of relief as he closed the platform of rotten wood and peeling paint that was supposed to be his door, shut.

"Seems he can\'t see this thing," he muttered as he slid against the door with his back until he sat on the floor.

On the blue holographic screen, all that was written on it were three words,

[Universal Exchange System]

"..." Lee Jung didn\'t know what to make of this situation, but the feeling of giddiness welling up from deep within him told of his indescribable joy at this moment.

He had read books that told of this kind of situation and the scene that followed where the main character would start reaching for the top of the world and gathering beauties on the way and he couldn\'t believe that it was happening to him at this moment.

\'It was finally his turn to be great.\'

\'All who had trampled upon him in the past would pay the price in the coming future.\'

\'All those women he had his eyes on would fall into his arms readily in no time.\'

All these thoughts ran through his head and his already unreasonable pride rose even further due to these thoughts.

[Would you wish to accept the system?]

[Y/N]

The blue screen asked, and a strange look immediately appeared on his face.

Why would he even consider letting go of this chance to become the main character that he had always wished he could be.

\'Only an idiot would refuse,\' he thought and quickly clicked on "Yes"

[Confirmation Successful]

A wide grin popped up on his face when the next thing on the blue holographic screen popped up,

[Click to Open Starter pack]

He quickly tapped on the blue screen to begin the process, not knowing that one day he would look back on this moment and wish he never accepted to merge with this system because after making this decision, he had put himself on the radar of an undying, untiring and hate-filled character that hated his kind and would stop at nothing to extinguish and exterminate them, but not before taking them through hell first, but this was a story for the future.

For now, he could only ignorantly enjoy his moments of happiness and further moments of victories but inevitably one day, he would be brought crashing down… hard.

**Back to Present… Outside the gate**

"GET DOWN!!!" Davies shouted as he fell to the ground along with Tisha\'s limp body in his arms.

Due to his scream, the B-Squad members who had also just come out of the gate instinctively followed his orders and lay down immediately and that was the best decision they had made today, as in less than a second after they got on the ground a wave of highly compressed of fire blasted out of the portal of the gate and swept just narrowly over their heads at extremely alarming speeds.

Luckily, the gate closed in another few seconds and the flame no longer having a source died out quickly.

The members of the B-Squad that were on the ground still didn\'t dare to raise their heads, their backs were drenched with cold sweat as they thought of the narrow escape they had just now thanks to Davies\'s shout.

As they all finally rose from the ground, they shot him looks of gratitude, but then a bright flash of light shone across them in the blink of an eye.
