The Villain Can't Lose

[Doru's POV: Following Rowen]

I was following Rowen with Dante in front of me, but the pain in my body was excruciating. Every step felt like a thousand knives piercing through my flesh, and the burning sensation was unbearable. It felt like my body was being torn apart from the inside, and I could barely keep up with them.

As I struggled to keep moving, my mind wandered back to my previous life. I was just a simple father who loved his son more than anything in the world. I remembered how I used to read stories to him every night before he went to bed, and how he would listen with wide-eyed wonder.

But then, I was reborn in a strange body, in a world that was completely unfamiliar to me. It didn't take long for me to realize that I was the villain of the story that I used to read to my son. I was disgusted with myself, and I knew that I had to find a way to change my fate.

As I watched Rowen, something about him reminded me of my son. Maybe it was his innocent expression or the way he held himself. Whatever it was, it gave me hope that I could still be a hero in this world. I refused to accept that my fate was predetermined, and that I had to play the role of the villain.

As I followed Rowen and Dante, I couldn't help but feel a sense of guilt and shame. I remembered how I manipulated Rowen in the book, and I didn't want to do it again in real life. But at the same time, I didn't want to come across as weak in front of Rowen. I knew that if he saw me as weak, he would never trust me or follow me.

But this Rowen was different from the one in the book. He was colder, more arrogant, and unapproachable. I couldn't find a way to connect with him, and every time I tried, he would shut me down.

Dante's voice brought me back to reality. "Let's go, he moved into a different building, hurry!" he said urgently.

I nodded and followed them, lost in my thoughts. When I first came to this school, I thought there would be more possibilities for me to change my fate. I even asked the staff to make sure that I was in the same room as Rowen and Dante, hoping that we could all get along. But Rowen was too strong and aggressive, and I couldn't find a way to approach him.

In the morning, I tried to play the villain, hoping to gain Rowen's trust. But instead, he beat me up without giving me a chance to talk. It was then that I realized that I couldn't become a hero by playing the villain. I had to find a different way, a better way.

As we reached the new building, I made a silent vow to myself. I would find a way to become friends with Rowen, to gain his trust and respect. I would prove to him that I was strong and trustworthy, and that I could be a valuable ally.

But for now, I would bide my time and wait for the right opportunity. I knew that it wouldn't be easy, but I was determined to succeed, no matter what.

As we walked through the hallways, I couldn't help but feel annoyed at the fact that I couldn't summon the snake that was supposed to be my companion. In the book, the snake was my source of power, and without it, I was weak and vulnerable.

I knew that my power was supposed to come from the venomous snake, and I had trained for years to master its abilities. But for some reason, I couldn't summon it in this new body. It was frustrating, to say the least.

Without the snake and its venomous power, I was weaker than I was supposed to be. I could easily get killed, and that thought made me uneasy. I was supposed to be the villain, the one who was feared and respected by all. But without my source of power, I was just a shadow of my former self.

I complained to myself silently, wondering why fate had dealt me such a cruel hand. I had been reborn in a new body, in a new world, and now I couldn't even summon my source of power. It was like everything was working against me, and I didn't know how to change it.

But I refused to give up. I knew that there had to be a way to summon the snake, to tap into its venomous power once again. I just had to find it, no matter what.

For now, I would have to rely on my wits and my strength to survive. I couldn't afford to show any weakness in front of Rowen and Dante. They had to believe that I was strong and capable, no matter what. And I would do everything in my power to make sure that they did.

We quietly followed Rowen's steps, trying our best not to draw attention to ourselves. Rowen was walking with purpose, and I couldn't help but wonder what he was up to. Dante seemed to share my thoughts.

"He's so suspicious, what's he up to?" Dante whispered to me, his voice filled with suspicion.

I shrugged my shoulders, not knowing what to say. I was just as clueless as he was. All I knew was that Rowen was not someone to be underestimated. He was smart and cunning, and he had a fierce determination that I couldn't help but admire.

As we continued to follow him, I felt a sense of unease. I wanted to go home, to my own world, where things made sense. But I knew that wasn't possible. I was stuck here, in this strange new world, fighting to change my fate.

I missed my son, and I wished that I could see him again. But I knew that I had to focus on the task at hand. I had to find a way to become a hero, to change my destiny, and to make a better life for myself.

For now, I would have to rely on my instincts and my training. I couldn't afford to show any weakness, They had to believe that I was strong and capable, no matter how I felt inside.

As we continued to follow Rowen's steps, I felt a sense of dread. What would happen next? Would we find out what Rowen was up to? Or would we be caught and punished for our actions? Only time would tell, and I could only hope that we would make it out of this alive.
