"We're streaming live at the Villain Faction Planet Earth on a birthday party held by the Villain Faction Leader himself; Mr Megan. A retired old soldier having about 12 planets in the solar system." A female reporter said with a couple of cameras clicking and recording as she spoke.
"Although it is not match to the amount the three world leaders have but it is the fourth in the quantity ranking of planets in the entire world."
"Although many people have been curious on whether the Villain Faction will be competing for the world leader position, it has been declared that the leader himself will tell us more during a special announcement on his birthday tonight."
"Please stay tuned as we introduce you to the Leader's children who appeared to be coming from different planets. Unfortunately we won't be telling you what their ability is… for security purpose."
"Can you please tell us your name and the name of your planet, a quick response please." The reporter said facing a young guy in an ash coloured suit.
"Hello, I'm Dave and my planet is D, any more questions?"
He walked away as soon as he said this, leaving the reporter speechless.
"Err, I guess that was quick. For those who couldn't hear him, his name is Dave and he's the leader of the Villain Faction, planet D. He's also the sixth son of the Mr Megan. Come on let's move on to the next couple of people."
"We have Mr Ajax here, a 19 year old dude. He's the fifth son of Mr Megan and he's currently the Leader of Planet A."
"We also have Mr Harry and Mr Larry, they are twins and are 20 years of age. They are the third and forth son of the Villain leader. They own planet H and L respectively."
"And here is the second son of the Villain leader, he looks so handsome guys, what do you think? One word for our viewers at home, Mr Jim."
The reporter said to Jim who had two ladies by his side. It appeared that he had been drinking the whole time. He reeked so badly of alcohol.
"I-I love you all!" He exclaimed.
"Well, that was wonderful. I'm sure a few people would like you too. Especially the girls." The reporter smirked at Jim but she made sure to hide it from the camera, so no one could see it.
"Mr Jim is 21 and he's the leader of planet J. I guess Mr Megan intentionally named the planets according to the names of his children. That's crazy, isn't it?"
"This are Miss Ri, Di, and Ki. If you think they are triplets, you got it all wrong. They are three sisters of the same mother with no brother. They own planet R, D and K."
"Also we have Mr Fed, the sixth son of Mr Megan. His planet is planet F. I heard people love visiting your planet because it feels safe. Do you have any comments to this?"
"Ahem! As you all know, most of the beasts in Planet F has been dealt with. I killed two legendary beasts on the first week I got to the planet. This is the sword forged from their crystals."
Fed unsheathed the sword from the sheath he had on his back and a longsword came into view.
"Isn't that heavy to lift?" The reporter asked.
"Yeah, it's not something just anyone can lift. Do you remember this movie called Thor? That only the worthy person could lift his hammer. My sword is just like the hammer."
"This sword was forged with a legendary tier crystal and my blood. You must be strong willed if you plan to lift it. If you're as strong willed as me, then surely you'll be able to lift it." Fed explained.
"Well, that is one hell of a story." The reporter said.
"It's not a story, this is real. You can try lifting it if you wish." Fed said, placing the sword on the ground.
"No, I'll pass." The reporter shivered at the thought of lifting such an heavy sword. Not after hearing about the history of how it was made.
"And next up, we have the most beautiful people of the family! The Identical twins! Xash and Xanny. They are both 22 years of age and they own the Planet X. They are the first born of the whole family, and just like everyone they came to celebrate their father's birthday, isn't that lovely."
As she said this, she could hear a high beat music playing from the hall where the party was held.
"Huh, it seems like the party is about to begin, let's go to the frontline. Don't forget to subscribe on my YouTube channel; at Mimi Talks. I am Mimi, thanks for watching!"
…
"Are you okay?" Xash asked, upon seeing Xanny's pale eyes.
She was silent at first as she seemed to have a lot going through her mind but she turned towards Xash and flashed a smile at him.
"I think I'll be fine…" she paused before proceeding. "I recalled all what we passed through in this house and it makes me sick to the bone."
Xash sighed externally. He didn't plan on coming as he wanted to kill the protagonist and leave this novel world but since things turned out to be this way, he decided to play along. Then maybe later when he finds a spaceship, he will head over to the protagonist's faction.
"We shouldn't have come in the first place." He finally said.
"You know it will put us in a bad spot if we don't come. Dad invited us himself. He has a special announcement for us. Don't you think it has something to do with the world leader thing."
"World leader thing? What about it?"
Xanny took a glance at Xash and although his expression seems neutral, she decided to speak.
"I guess you're too busy sticking your d*ck in places that you don't know what is going on in the world. Father is getting old and you know he could die any time soon. He needs to hand over his position to one of his children before he retires. A lot of people have been looking forward to the day he'll retire, even our enemies."
"The position is naturally meant for you since you're the first born, but you know father. He thinks you're weak and if he would hand over to any other person, it must be someone as strong willed as him." Xanny explained, hoping his dumb headed brother would at least be able to understand what she meant by that.
"Hmm, that explains it." Xash said.
It's not something he's concerned about in the first place. His aim was to kill the protagonist and end this goddamn world.
He felt like he's wasting a lot of time with these people, it's not like they matter once he kill the protagonist. His mission is to kill the protagonist and he must take the first step now!
"Err, Xanny. Can I borrow one of your spaceships?"
"No,… why? Are you going somewhere?" She replied.
"Yeah, there's someone I need to meet, he kind of owe me something. So I need to teach him a lesson. I would appreciate it if you lend me one of your spaceships. Once I complete my task, you'll have a lot of spaceships and planets to yourself." Xash said but he saw that Xanny's mind was somewhere else.
"Hey, are you listening?" He frowned.
"Hey Xash, father is inside. Let's go meet him." She said, a little bit nervous as she walked off to a distance.
"Fuck Father! I'm putting an end to this crap!"
Xash walked back to the ship that brought them here and tried opening the door, but he saw that it was locked.
He tried opening the doors of the other spaceships but they were all locked.
"Fuck! What kind of shitty world is this. Why am I so unlucky." He grinned internally but then he remembered that he had a hacking ability. He was able to hack the Ace spaceship into making it malfunction, it could also work on the locks right?
Placing his hands on the door leading into the spaceship, he activated his hacking ability, a little bit confident that it will work.
Unfortunately for him, the system notification he received wasn't what he was expecting.
[ Do you wish to unlock the doors of spaceship? ]
[ Sorry, the doors have been locked by an unhackable Lock. It can only be unlocked by a key which only the pilot of a specific ship has. ]
"Shitty ability! Shitty System!" He said with anger.
As he looked towards a direction and saw a pilot walking into a public restroom, a smile suddenly formed on his lips.
"Hmm, perhaps I'm not so unlucky as I thought."
'I need a spaceship, but they are all locked. That pilot must have the key to one these spaceships. If I'm able to take it, I'll head for the Ace Faction and kill the protagonist.' He said, scheming a plan in his mind.
As he was about to walk towards the restroom, someone suddenly appeared in front of him.
"Wow, so you came?" Jim, Xash's step brother said as he appeared out of nowhere.
