In this world, there are two types of people: those with the potential to become survivors and ordinary people.
Negut is the second type.
Ordinary people also play a very important role in this world because they are the ones who will develop and rebuild the safe zones.
Moreover, ordinary people have very good reproductive ability, while survivors have very low reproductive ability, only below 2%.
It seems that this is the price to pay for becoming a Survivor, or perhaps it is Mother Nature's fairness.
Just think about it: if survivors had the same reproductive ability as ordinary people, humanity would have easily reclaimed this planet.
Even though ordinary people play an important role, Negut's status must also be considered.
He is the son of the governor of the Terith Empire. The Governor is a level 89 master, but his son is an ordinary person.
The son of a survivor with immense status being an ordinary person seems like a terrible humiliation for his father.
However, his father was not angry, nor did he feel humiliated; on the contrary, Negut's parents loved and pampered him unconditionally.
This formed the personality of a useless, arrogant villain... Negut possessed all the traits a villain should have.
Negut sighed, and others got isekai and became the protagonist, possessing incredible talent and a huge harem. But he... he got isekaied and became a villain with no talent at all.
Even though his family was almost the richest in the Terith Empire, he still didn't have a girlfriend.
Negut wanted to cry because life was too unfair.
The memories of the 'old Negut' in his head became clearer, and he also realised who Alec was and why he was isekai'd to this world.
The 'old Negut' and he both had the name Van Negut, but their appearances were slightly different.
Negut on Earth had a rather ordinary appearance, but the 'old Negut' in this world was quite handsome.
As mentioned above, the 'old Negut' was extremely evil, a villain, so it was normal for him to have conflicts with the protagonist.
The conflict started when the 'old Negut' attended the 'Survival Academy.' It was an academy established to train those with the potential to become survivors into real survivors, capable of fighting monsters and protecting the safe zones.
Although Negut had no potential to become a survivor, he was the governor's son, so he was given special permission to study at this academy.
Of course, Negut didn't go to the survival academy to study; rather, he went because of the beautiful female students. To be precise, he went there to flirt.
The 'old Negut' had very high standards for the women he wanted; they had to be both beautiful and highly talented survivors.
Negut shook his head and sighed, thinking: 'Maybe that's why, until his death, the 'old Negut' still didn't have a girlfriend, and he hadn't even lost his virginity.'
Back to the old issue, the 'old Negut' wanted to find high-quality women, so he flirted with one of the most beautiful women in the academy.
Coincidentally, well, not too coincidentally, that woman was the childhood friend of the protagonist.
Yes, she was Selvia, and the protagonist was Alec.
After many times bothering Selvia, Alec appeared, and the scene of 'the hero saving a beauty' played out once again.
After all, Alec was the protagonist, and he was also a Survivor with Rank D talent, which was enough to teach a useless person like the 'old Negut' a lesson.
The 'old Negut' was not seriously injured; after all, he was a villain, but his pride was severely hurt.
Therefore, the 'old Negut' was so angry and ashamed that he swallowed an unpurified 'Energy crystal.'
It must be known that... Only survivors can absorb the substance called 'Energy Crystal.'
For ordinary people, it is a highly toxic poison. Even for survivors, if they want to absorb 'Energy Crystal,' they must purify them first.
But at that time, the 'old Negut' , like an idiot, swallowed an unpurified 'Energy Crystal.'
Of course, it was easy to guess what happened.
Yes, the 'old Negut' died. The soul of the 'new Negut' from Earth came to this world, taking over this body.
'So...' Negut held his forehead with one hand as he thought, 'From now on, I am Negut; there is only one Negut, and that is me.'
Confirming this, the 'new Negut' no longer cared about whose body this was.
From that moment, he was 'Negut,' and there was only one Negut in this world.
Negut looked at the system notification board once again and cursed: "My cause of death is... having my limbs severed, then being hung on the city gate, and being exposed to the sun until I die... this cause of death is too unreasonable."
It must be known that he is the son of the Governor of the Terith Empire, and even though he is useless, he has many Masters protecting him.
Even if Alec is the protagonist, he is only a Survivor with Rank D talent, not a very high level; so how could he kill Negut?
Moreover, if his limbs were severed, his father would probably burn down the entire city and chop up Alec into a hundred pieces.
No matter how useless Negut is, he is still the only son of the governor, and there is no way he could be bullied by others without his father caring.
Negut frowned and muttered: "But... What if that happens? After all, this is the system; how could the system give a wrong notification?"
"Moreover, for the protagonist, anything is possible."
He sighed, remembering the web novels he had read. For the protagonist, anything is possible. Even the most impossible or unreasonable things, the protagonist can do.
Therefore, Alec easily killing a villain like Negut is something he believes can happen.
Negut's eyes focused on the 'Time of Death' section of the notification board.
He tried to search through the 'old Negut's' memories to see if there was any event about a month later.
However, Negut had just taken over this body, so many of the 'old Negut's' memories were not clear, so he could only sigh and let it go.
He frowned and said: "System, you didn't appear just to tell me I'm going to die, right?"
[Ding! The 'Destiny Villain' system is honored to serve the master.]
[Ding! The system begins to provide the newbie gift package; please wait a moment.]
[Ding! The newbie gift package has been provided. Do you want to open the newbie gift package?]
"Of course!"
[Ding! Successfully opened the newbie gift package, and you received one Void Energy synchronization.]
"Void energy synchronization?" Negut frowned, feeling confused. But right after that, an energy inside his body slowly spread to all his cells.
The pain hit once again as if countless needles were stabbing into each of his cells.
The blood vessels under his skin spread like roots all over his body.
Negut's eyes changed from black to purple, emitting a faint light that made anyone who saw it shiver.
Negut convulsed violently for a while, then his body returned to normal.
He lay on the bed, panting, unscheduled tears in his eyes.
He had been in this world for less than 30 minutes and had already endured pain twice. He feared that he would die before the protagonist appeared.
Negut now truly believed that being isekaied was not a reward; it seemed more like a punishment for him.
[Ding! Synchronization successful, you received new talent and a new profession, please check the attributes in the 'Personal Attribute Board' tag.]
Negut was startled but then delighted: "Finally, I have something to defend myself with. After all, I am a villain; how can I be so useless that I can't even fight?"
It must be known that in this world, modern weapons have almost disappeared. Only the army has the right to use them, but they can only threaten ordinary people and very low-rank survivors.
For high-ranking and high-talent survivors, they seem not to fear guns or even missiles.
In the memories Negut inherited from the 'old Negut,' he saw a level 40 person block a missile.
Moreover, that person was only slightly injured. This shows how terrifying the power of survivors is.
Compared to ordinary people, survivors are like gods; even the lowest-ranking Survivor can endanger a group of ordinary people.
For Negut, having talent means he has a chance to counterattack the protagonist.
Even if he can't defeat the protagonist, at least he can defend himself.
"Open Personal Attribute Board."
At this moment, an electronic board appeared in front of Negut.
