Function: Valley of Villey – ACTIVATED
This function will assist in completing the main directive: Make Host into the best and perfect villain across all realities.
To teach you, the system has summoned villains from every known dimension Murim, Cultivation, Supernatural, Urban, Martial Arts, Mecha, Mythology and beyond.
All aspects strength, intelligence, cruelty, tactics, vision will be covered.
Villains are ranked from F to SSS, and rare EX-rank existences may appear.
Location: SYSTEM SPACE
Special Conditions:
– Infinite Mana
– Infinite Revives
– Double speed compared to the outside world.
Hidden functions are present. Host must discover them personally.
Razeal read it all once.
No emotion. No awe. No sarcastic reaction apeared on his face as if he was in Deep contemplation.
Just data.
His jaw shifted slightly.
"So this is what the system thinks I need."
Not a weapon.
Not a bloodline.
Not some divine power-up dropped from the sky with sparkles and horns.
Lessons.
He clicked his tongue.
And here I thought it'd be some cheat ability.
Even after reading thousands of system novels, apparently, there were still surprises left.
After all the systems, novels, dungeon cores and skill trees he'd consumed like junk food over the years, he figured he'd seen every kind of twist. But this?
This was weird.
Weird enough to be interesting.
And maybe weird was what he needed.
He didn't say anything else. Didn't need to. He tapped the open command, and the system expanded quietly, efficiently.
A long list unfolded like a scroll peeling back the universe.
Villain Archive: Valley of Villey
[F]
[D]
[C]
[B]
[A]
[S]
[SSS] ???
[EX] — (10)
Ranks. Neat, organized. Clean gradient from bottom to top.
But something stuck.
Every other tier F through SSS had a "???" behind it.
Uncountable.
Only the EX rank had a number.
(10)
Glowing in a dark, violet-purple. The kind of color that didn't show up unless someone wanted it to mean danger.
Razeal stared at it.
Ten.
Only ten made it to that tier.
Not per world. Not per era.
Across all realities.
Razeal blinked once.
"…This is just some crazy shit."
From the start of time to wherever the hell this system scraped its data, only ten had climbed high enough to qualify as something beyond system logic.
And every tier just one step below?Uncountable. Literally unmeasurable.
Too many to list. Endless, basically.
He squinted.
"…That's a hell of a gap."
The thought crawled in:
How wide is the difference between EX and SSS?
If uncountable monsters didn't make that jump, how far out were those ten?
How did they think?
What did they do?
How much did they break?
He didn't feel fear.
He felt curious.
"If they're really that strong… I can definitely learn something cool, right? Because if these were villains the best of the worst then they had to be insanely strong right?."
He got excited just for a second.
Unlimited mana. Unlimited revives. No penalty for dying.
If he could spar with those ten, learn from them, survive them...
He'd come out a beast. A goddamn apocalypse in a coat.
The system cut in before his mind went too far.
[Don't dream too fast, Host. I have the right to summon them.]
[But whether they teach you or kill you over and over again or even acknowledge you depends on them. These are not puppets. They have their own consciousness, will, and rules.]
Razeal blinked.
"…Ehhhhhh?" What the fuck"
His eyebrows twitched.
"What do you mean they're not here to teach? I thought this was like… select enemy → see skill list → tap yes."
Instead, he had to convince these freaks?
"They're fucking villains. They're supposed to monologue, threaten me, then show off their ultimate technique before I die. That's their thing."
But even he wasn't dumb enough to ignore the problem.
Villains weren't kind.
They weren't wise mentors waiting to share secrets.
They were violent, erratic, power-obsessed psychos.
Convincing them to train him?
How the hell was he supposed to do that?
Bribe them? Threaten them? Out-insane them?
That was a nightmare in the making.
It changed everything.
Not just fight to learn. First, survive the encounter. Then convince the thing across from you that you're worth talking to.
Its like the idea of asking one of them for help felt like punching a dragon in the teeth and asking it to teach you how to fly.
It made things 10,000× more difficult.
Because now?
No hand-holding.
No tutorials and worst part
It wasn't about training.
It wasn't about skills.
It wasn't about tapping "yes" on a menu and getting your free upgrade.
It was about surviving the ego of someone who had already killed a hundred stories just by existing or Maybe more.
Now he'd have to earn something from people who didn't value life, who probably didn't even believe in teaching and well are dead and haven't seen a human in don't know how many years.
He sighed.
Just the most dangerous minds to ever exist, and him still barely scratching the bottom of the power scale.
Not dramatic. Not defeated.
Just done.
Then he shrugged.
"Whatever. Let's try it."
System. I choose EX rank.
Greed. No shame.
He shrugged like he was ordering the most expensive item on a menu he wasn't paying for.
He wasn't even strong enough to scratch the lower ranks yet but who cared?
What were they gonna do? Kill him? He'd just respawn.
Because if the rules said infinite mana, infinite revives, and no real-world consequences… then why the hell wouldn't he go for the best first?
And if it came to it even if some EX freak tried to break his mind or erase his will he'd just spam revives until their ego cracked.
Until their script collapsed.
Infinite retries turned even gods into victims.
Like that red-caped bastard with a green grape in one hand.
Loop. Reset. Abuse.
"Yeah. I can do that."
The screen lit up.
[Accessing EX-Rank Archive…]
[Warning: Instability risk. Proceed?]
[All actions within this space are irreversible. Mental trauma may persist beyond revives.]
