After I went to sleep, I dreamed about the same dream I had been seeing for the whole week.

I don't know why but I feel like the person in that place was me, and I was living all those things by myself.

Anyway, with that, I woke up with an unfamiliar feeling all around my body.

After seeing this dream and waking up, it seemed my body became a bit sore since I felt like the strength left my body.

I tried to stand up and move my body, but a sudden pain in my stomach assaulted me.

What is this? Why am I feeling the pain in my abdomen?

After the pain, my vision got more apparent, and I found a chance to look around at my surroundings.

"Huh? What the?"

Where is this place?

I don't think I have ever been to such a place before.

While I was looking around, suddenly, I heard a voice in my head.

<System initializing.>

<Mind integration process is starting.>

<Host is advised to go to a safe place since it will take some time.>

"What? Who is th-?"

With those words in my mind, a strong sense of pain suddenly assaulted my head, and I lost consciousness.

At that moment, I felt like I had a dream. But not a dream at the same time.

I felt like I was in the consciousness of a kid, a certain black-haired, red-eyed kid.

He started living his life in a Duke Household, and I observed his whole life from his point of view.

It was like, my consciousness and he suddenly merged.

Even now, I feel like my thought process is changing; the way I think and the way I respond are slowly changing, and I feel it.

It feels like I am becoming one with the owner of the body in this dream.

And that dream ended with the same scene I saw for the whole week in my dreams.

The father was dying in front of his son, smiling gently, putting his hand to his son's cheek, touching it for the last time in his life.

At that moment, all of the things that had been bugging my mind were cleared.

All the pieces suddenly fell together.

Who was the person in the dream?

Who was the kid in the dream?

Why were there corpses everywhere in the dream?

What happened before to cause such destruction in the environment?

I got my answers to all those questions.

With that, I woke up, not as an Aaron, but as a different person.

Yes, I am a different person now.

I am no longer in the body of Aaron, and neither is my consciousness Aaron itself.

I am in the body of the kid named 'Callius Augustride' with our consciousnesses merged together.

At that moment, I opened my eyes, and everything seemed familiar.This is the room of Callius in his family mansion.

I am saying mansion because Callius is the son of Duke Austin and heir of the Augustride Household.

And this world is the world of the so-called RPG game I played the last week.

Yes, this world is the world of 'Chronicles of Aeris'. The so-called RPG game, but in reality, just an eroge game.

I am in this world.

And I am actually a character.

A villain, one at that.

Before all that, let me give you an explanation of the starting point of the game's story and its main cast.

Chronicles of Aeris is a game with RPG elements, and our main character is a classical noble and hero character.

His name is Arthur Nightlance, and he is the future wielder of the Holy sword, as well as the Hero Class holder.

I am saying Hero Class because when one steps on the age of 10, they are taken to the church by their family to be blessed, and according to the blessing of the god or goddess, they will have the class.

And in the game, our main character's class was the hero, and he was pretty overpowered in a sense.

In the game, we start when Arthur is 13 years old, and there are certain capture targets or heroines in the game to make it playable.

While the game shows the training grounds to make us accustomed to the control system, we also learn about the heroines at the same time.

In a sense, we can say there are three heroines shown in the introduction or pre-academy arc of the game.

There are no listings for the heroines specifically, but according to the order of the time they showed up, I will sort them.

The first heroine of the game is Emma Augustride.

Yes, she is my older sister.

In the game, she is the first person to show up and spars with us to train. And that part was the introduction to combat-related things as well as the first heroine.

She is the childhood friend of Arthur since they are both from Duke households of the same kingdom.

She is a sword wielder and a pretty strong person. In the game, she was shown as a hardworking person, and she wanted her man to be stronger than her, so if you beat her in a duel, you could slowly make her fall for you.

And this was the exact thing that happened in the game.

Anyway, so I am the brother of Emma, then why am I the villain?

This is pretty simple.

Firstly, Callius is not the blood brother of Emma, at least full blood.

I am her stepbrother since our mothers are different.

And, in the game, neither Emma nor her mother, Adelyn, liked Callius.

We can even say that they hate me right now.

Since Callius' body is weak, and for some reason, he didn't receive any class or blessing from the goddess when they took him to the church, he is weak.

He didn't have any way to increase his strength since he didn't have any classes, and initially, his body itself was also weak.

And that was the first reason Emma didn't like him.

She generally doesn't like weak males and doesn't respect them.

However, that is not the only reason.

The second reason is that he is the illegitimate son of Duke Austin.

Although he had never seen my mother, Duke Austin said that she was still alive and out there somewhere.

When Callius was a baby, he said he found Callius in his office room crying with a note that Callius was his son.Later, when he checked Callius' blood and matched it with his, he saw that Callius was really his son and understood who his mother was.

However, he never talked about Callius' mother, what kind of person she was and where she is right now, so Callius still doesn't know who his mother is.

And, as you can expect, no one in this world suddenly accepts the existence of another sibling popping up from out there.

And in the case of Emma, she didn't like Callius because of her mother.

Her mother, Adelyn is a very prideful person, so she couldn't accept the fact that his husband slept with another woman behind her and made an offspring.

That is the reason she has unconditional hate towards Callius, and she affects her child as well.

Therefore, I can easily say that they both hate me or Callius right now.

And Callius himself is not a good person either.

He is obsessed with dignity, and he is a perfectionist.

He hates things out of order, and he doesn't like ugly things, so he refused to train with swords since they would make his hands ugly, he said.

And his attitude towards personnel was also not good since he was always alone, and there was no one on his side.

In a sense, we can say that the feeling of lacking made him a villain.

He was always jealous of his sister since she had a way of increasing her strength, and everyone would always praise her while they would scorn him.

All of those lead to a bad relationship with everyone around him, aside from his father.

And this was the first reason he was a villain.

The second reason relies on another heroine.

Know that since Duke Austin was a good-natured gentle person, his relationship with all other dukes of the Kingdom was good.

And when he proposed the engagement of the Callius and the second heroine Alicia Montalet, the Montalet family accepted it without much thought.

Yes, the second heroine of our game is engaged to Callius.

As a trash eroge game with no story or whatever, how can it not contain an NTR scene?

Well, as you can expect, since none of the players would like to be the victim of netorare and would prefer to be the one that stoles the girl, the game would give you as well.

You see, in the beginning, Alicia was treating Callius well, and since at that time she was one of the little people who treated Callius well, he started liking her.

You can say that he had a crush on her as well.

But, later, when it was revealed that Callius had no class and was talentless, Alicia started treating him poorly, and as the protagonist, could we miss that chance to make Alicia ours?

Of course not.

In the game, Alicia's class was the priest, and she was the Saintess candidate of the country. Therefore, she was a highly coveted and respected person.

And from her childhood she had a crush on Arthur, but she never showed it outside since she decided to make Arthur fall in love with her first.

Although she was engaged to Callius, she never liked him. She knew that it was her duty to strengthen her household, so she didn't oppose the idea, but inside she always planned to betray Callius one day and marry Arthur in the future.

She is a manipulative and cunning person. It is because she put some dangerous thoughts into Callius' mind and made the rift between him and Emma widen.

All to make Callius look like the villain and to get rid of him.

And right now, I am 12 years old, and she might have already been in a relationship with Arthur right now, heck she might even have slept with him since one becomes an adult at the age of 15 in this world.

Does that bother me?

Of course not.

I don't care about either Emma or Alicia. They both can go to hell, and it is not like I liked them in the game anyway.

They are the heroines, so what?

She was engaged to me, so what?

None of that matters to me.

<System initialization finished.>

<The mind integration into the body starts.>

With that, I lost consciousness again…
