The Spirit Of Desire

When Ed served in the military as a mecha-human, he never thought about the future. Like every soldier around him, he believed he would eventually perish in the line of duty. And he never feared that outcome—after all, he had nothing to lose except his life. The only thing that could be called entertainment in his existence was a novel he had been forced to read. A dull, uninspiring story. Or so he thought. Who would have guessed that the very same novel would become his greatest asset after his death? Reincarnated into that same world, he now finds himself in the role of a minor villain—the one destined to murder the heroine’s parents. Born into a family that loves him, yet heading toward a doomed future, he realizes one thing: If he doesn’t take the protagonist’s place, everything will collapse. And so, he must change the story. ***** A/N:- I suck at synopsis. My grammar won't be perfect but I will try to keep the story interesting. Give a few chapters of read before judging. The starting might be cliche but as you proceed further you may find something new and interesting.

"Take her," the dangerous man orders casually, like I'm the most boring little human he's ever encountered in his life. "I said stay the fuck away!" I yell at him this time, causing him to tilt his head in amusement. "A little girl like you shouldn't be swearing at your elders. It's bad habit. Your daddy should have taught you better." Hold on. My daddy. And if I heard correctly the first time, the other man had mentioned something about 'daughter' and 'grown woman'. Shit! What's going on? This must be Darius Hunter! And how do they know about my existence!? Oh no! My father! Have they taken him? Have they hurt him? "Darius... Hunter?" I stutter in sheer terror, the dangerous man tensing as I mention his name. "You know my name. I don't know if I should be impressed or disappointed," Darius chuckles, amusement seeping into his tone. "Errrm... I... Where's my father...?" My demand sounds more like a plea, my voice shuddering in painful anticipation. "Waiting for you at my place. He said we should come get you. I didn't expect you to be old enough to beat up my man.
