Villian Beloved

Death is the only Beginning

Rain poured against the glass walls of the twenty-seventh floor, blurring the city lights into streaks of silver and gold.

Lin Yu stared at the glowing computer screen in front of him, fingers still resting on the keyboard. The report he'd spent three days perfecting was finally finished.

He leaned back in his chair with a tired sigh.

"So... overtime again."

The office was empty.

Everyone else had gone home hours ago.His phone vibrated.

Mom: Don't forget dinner tomorrow.

A faint smile appeared on his lips.

"I won't."

He reached for his coat.

Everything went black.

...

It wasn't pain.

It was silence.

Then—

[Initializing...]

[Soul compatibility: 100%]

[Binding World-Hopping System 007.]

Lin Yu slowly opened his eyes.

Instead of the office, he found himself floating in an endless white space.

"What...?"

A tiny glowing creature no bigger than a cat flew in circles around him.

"Host! Congratulations on dying!"

Lin Yu blinked.

"...Congratulations?"

The creature coughed awkwardly.

"I mean... welcome!"

"My name is System 007."

Lin Yu pinched the bridge of his nose.

"So I'm dead."

"Correct."

"And you're a hallucination."

"I am a perfectly certified interdimensional mission system!"

The creature puffed itself up proudly.

"You have two choices."

"One."

"Disappear forever."

"Two."

"Travel across countless worlds, complete missions, and earn enough points to reconstruct your body."

Lin Yu considered the offer.

"What's the catch?"

"There is always a catch."

007 projected a glowing screen.

Lin Yu stared at the screen for several seconds.

"That isn't much of a choice."

"Nope!"

The system smiled brightly.

"So..."

"Do you accept?"

Silence

Finally—

"I accept."

The contract ignited beneath his feet.

Golden light wrapped around his body.

007 suddenly froze.

"Oh..."

Lin Yu narrowed his eyes.

"What?"

"...There might be one tiny issue."

"How tiny?"

"The world's strongest character..."

"...has a 99% chance of becoming obsessed with you."

^⁠_⁠^

Lin Yu stared at the floating creature.

"...That sounds like your problem."

<⁠(⁠￣⁠︶⁠￣⁠)⁠>

"I wish it were."

Before either of them could say another word, the white space shattered into countless fragments.

The world spun.

Warm sunlight brushed across Lin Yu's face.

Voices echoed around him.

"...Senior?"

"...Senior Lin?"

His eyelashes fluttered open.

A handsome young man stood beside the hospital bed, worry written all over his face.

The moment their eyes met—

A strange warmth spread through the room.

Far away, in the tallest office building in the city, a man signing billion-dollar contracts suddenly paused.

His cold black eyes lifted toward the window.

A heartbeat later, a name he had never heard before slipped unconsciously from his lips.

"...Lin Yu."

Outside, the wind began to howl.

Somewhere beyond the world's laws, a forgotten soul had awakened.

And destiny had started moving once more and Lin yu has no idea what he has gotten himself into
