Chapter 1 - My 100th Life

"Carlos... Carlos Esther Winter, my son," That's the first thing I heard clearly after being born. I saw a man laughing, with a brown thick beard and moustache, a cheerful face, adorned in luxury. Oh, yes, I am born again and this is my hundredth one. Who am I this time? A prince? A duke? A count? A rebel? A dark mage? A demon? I am fed up with all this. Stop, I died 99 times already, leave me alone, god... (the cry of a baby)

"Helena, your son pooped again. Oh my, it stinks," said my father holding me like an alien object.

"What? I hate baby bodies, ahh god! It stinks, come fast and change this, it's disgusting. Oh shit! I hate babies, I mean, it's mine, but I am over 100 years old inside, so embarrassing," (cries of a baby)

"Oh my goodness, you did it, my prince, well done," she is beautiful. So this is my mother, Helena. My room is very extravagant, therefore I am sure they are wealthy. The clothes they wore are modern to what I have seen in my past life, so it may be a future world. Is there magic here? Judging by the stone necklace they are wearing I am guessing this is a magical world. There are many maids outside and none inside, are they being cautious? why? More importantly are they only rich or hold any positions in the social hierarchy? Huh! I think I have to wait, judging my appearance, I may be only a few months old. However, the name Carlos, it's kind of suits my villain nature. I am so curious. What kind of villain story will I live in? Maybe a love story or political or envious. Whatever it is, I have decided something. I am done playing the role of a villain. I'm done means I'm done for sure. I am not doing this over and over again. I was killed by the hero for more than fifty, imprisoned, died a pitiful life and even killed by my own children once so I am done. Even though I don't remember most of my previous life, isn't too much? How can you make me play this cruel villain role 99 times, god or devil, I don't want to do it any more. I didn't have much choice in my last life and all I could do was try to abduct the heroin and get beaten by the hero and even his little sister, so this time I am going to make my own path. Screw you! whoever controls my life, just watch and learn. I will teach you how to live a normally quiet and peaceful life.

This is my plan, I will grow obedient and get some share from my father. Then I will start a business according to the trends, since I have 99 life experiences, I am good at everything. I will use my powers for good. I will not fall in love with the heroin. I will not cross paths with the hero of this story and I will marry a non-famous girl. Then we will move to the countryside, raise our children well, watch them grow up, and die peacefully. Hahaha... so wonderful.

"Wow! Nice dream, but I am afraid you can't baby Carlos the terror," there in front of my big round baby eyes appeared a creature with horns and a tail.

"Wtf! God!" I said (baby crying)

"Carl, my sweety, are you hungry after pooping. Your food is here," my mother started unbuttoning her gown.

"Wait, wait, I am not hungry, Mother, can't you see, there is a demon here, wait for a second, woman... stop trying to shove your nip--- " The struggle was a waste, I hate to say this, but since I am her baby it will be ok, milk is so delicious. I feel sleepy but what is that little chubby devil, stop smiling at me idiot and stop staring at my mother's breast.

"First of all, I am not a devil, I am a puck or hobgoblin, a domestic and nature sprite and my name is Robin Goodfellow. Since you have reached the hundredth and the last life, I am your spiritual guide," he said proudly.

"So you are a demon and you have been watching me all this time. What do you mean by my last? I will not be born again?" I asked confused and a little raged, clenching my teeth even though I don't have any.

"Ouch! you are a strong baby, don't be like your father," giggled my mother.

"What? This shameless woman! Watch your words, you are talking to your son," I glared

"Hahaha... Carlos Esther Winter, this is your last life and as a farewell gift to your 99 committed villain life according to your destiny, you have earned a mysterious gift box, a guide which is indeed me and a wish." proclaimed the Puck.

"Puck, do you mean I can cross over to the realm of Ether after this life?"

"My name is Robin Goodfellow," his eyes narrowed

"Yeah, Robin Goodfellow, explain to me," I asked eagerly.

"Yes, that's right. You have atoned for your sin. You have completed your punishment and you have reached your final goal. So I came as the messenger of the light, to guide you properly in the ether, not in this world but I shall aid you as a servant. You have a mystery gift box and wish, please ask me," he bowed courteously.

"Splendid! Yes... I have done it. My life as a worthless Villain is over," I cried

"Excuse me... Carlos... you are a villain in this world too," smiled Robin

"What? why can't you give me a hero role, this is my last one," I scowled

"But your roles are decided by the greatest sin you did in your first life, so a supervillain is the most suited one," he responded.

"Baby, go to sleep," my mother tucked me in my crib and started singing a sweet lullaby in her heavenly voice. Wow! She is a beautiful singer. It feels so nice and fresh.

"Wait! Robin, you know about my first life? who was I? What did I do?" I asked as my eyes began to close, gradually.

"Master Carlos, it's time for your nap. I will tell you once you wake up," the sound felt heavy and fading. I fell into a slumber. When I woke up it was midnight and I could see my mother and father sleeping on the bed next to me. Did they bring me here to their room? Huh! This is a very opulent house, I am indeed prosperous.

"Yes, you are very wealthy, Master. You are the first son of Duke Ernest Hugh Winter and he is not just a Duke but the brother of King Rudolf George Westlake of the Kingdom of Kerma. Your mother is from the family of Viscount Aksun. Just like you doubted this world has magic but there is an exception. Only people born with the magic core known as Magnus can use magic and according to the variations in their Magnus, their abilities change. Your father was born with a Magnus and he has the ability to summon the wind fairy and use the wind sword, he is one of the great knights who protects this kingdom. However your mother doesn't have a Magnus, so she uses an artificial one, you see that magic stone around her neck, that helps the non-Magnus people to protect themselves from magical dangers. They cannot use magic but the stone detects danger so they can avoid it. Don't worry, you are born with a Magnus, it is strong like your father but I don't know your ability, you must wait at least seven to ten years for manifesting it." elaborated Robin.

"Robin, am I the only child?"

"No, you have a sister, she is five years old, Ruth Esther Winter,"

"Hmm... I kind of feel the aura of their overprotectiveness, why is that?"

"Oh, before you they had another boy but he died two months after his birth, they are a little overprotective of you,"

"Hmm... then it's fair. Robin, tell me about my first life,"

"Well, that... I just got an order from the light saying, you made a deal with the light when you die for the first time. It says light should never disclose your first life to you at any cost, even if it is you who demands it. You also added that you wish to forget it. If you ever ask about your first; tell you; do not or you will regret it, so, I can't," answered Robin, helpless.

"There must be a reason for my past self to leave a message like that, so I don't want to increase my headache. Let's forget that. You mentioned a mystery gift box and a wish as a farewell gift, right? Can I ask now?" I asked with a smile.

"Yes, Master Carlos," replied Robin as I smirked. Let's say farewell to my villain life first... hehe...

"What?" blinked Robin confused.

"But before that, I am thirsty, (clears his throat) close your ears Robin, this one is a little loud,"

"Ehh?"

The entire household awoke to the loudest cry of a thirsty baby...
