He closed the door behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment Julius left, Iagano’s face changed. His eyes turned cold. He stood quietly, thinking hard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The black-haired, brown-eyed boy walked up to him and spoke in a serious voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Leader, that was Julius Augustus Hayes...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You think I don’t know that?\" Iagano frowned and stepped back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He is at the top of our elimination list. But after what he just said... it’s very difficult now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their mission was clear: find all possible human leaders and kill them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right now, the main targets were Rosalina Valentina and Julius Augustus Hayes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Julius had walked straight to them and revealed that he was one of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I can’t even ask him to show his real face,’ Iagano thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their appearance-changing technique needed the real face to work.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he showed his true face now, he could never change back to it safely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Iagano himself was wearing the face of a student he had killed before entering the academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So asking Julius to reveal himself was impossible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haa...\" Iagano let out a long sigh and walked back to his desk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius even knew about the Great Sanachi and their deepest secrets, things only the highest leaders of the Zlycons were supposed to know.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Julius spoke earlier and showed no respect, Iagano had almost decided to kill him right there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the Zlycons, higher-ups were treated with great respect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the moment Julius mentioned the Great Sanachi correctly, Iagano changed his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, The Great Sanachi was a very high-ranking figure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even their own master had to bow in front of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Julius was really his disciple, then everything Julius said suddenly made perfect sense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Iagano thought quietly for a while, then sat down in the chair behind his desk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After some time, he turned to the black-haired, brown-eyed boy and spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Kagano, Later, send a message to the master. Ask him to confirm Julius’s true identity.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kagano looked at Iagano and answered respectfully,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Leader, we are very far from home. It will take at least six months for any news to come back.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, Kagano’s face showed confusion. He kept staring straight ahead for some reason.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Iagano frowned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I know that. But we have no choice. If we harm Julius and he really is the Great Sanachi’s disciple, all of us will die. Do exactly what I said.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, Leader,\" Kagano replied. He bowed and walked to the side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Iagano stayed silent, lost in deep thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A girl stepped out from the back of the room. She looked very anxious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Leader, what about the thing he asked for? It’s very difficult. If we get caught...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Iagano let out a long sigh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"For now, we can only do what he says. If the Great Sanachi really wants that treasure, we must help him get it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone in the room nodded in agreement. They looked serious and then went back to their tasks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Julius walked out of the club building.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stopped, turned back, and stared at it for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A small smile appeared on his face, but it didn’t reach his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They must be wondering about my real identity right now,\" he muttered quietly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They’ll probably send a letter to their master to confirm who I am.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked away from the building.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But we’re on the three floating continents,\" he murmured softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Any news from the four stationary continents will take a very long time to arrive.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Before that happens, I will finish my job,\" he told himself as he started walking toward the main gate of the academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That treasure is very important to me,\" Julius continued muttering under his breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But stealing it alone would be almost impossible. There are too many powerful professors guarding it. Some of them have even reached the Void Core stage.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He kept walking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And then there’s the dean. He’s at the Void Core stage of Bodily Ascension. He has already passed two heavenly trials in the Domain Manifestation of Soul Ascension.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius’s eyes twitched slightly when he thought of the old man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That dean was incredibly strong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the original story, the dean had helped the hero a lot after being impressed by his hard work and determination.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius finally reached the gate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A black carriage was waiting just outside. Alfred stood in front of it, waiting respectfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Alfred saw Julius, he quickly opened the carriage door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good afternoon, Young Master.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius stepped inside without saying a word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was completely lost in his thoughts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alfred closed the door gently, then walked around and climbed into the driver’s seat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He started the carriage and guided it toward the mansion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside, Julius stayed silent, still deep in thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’The competition is tomorrow. That isn’t much time...’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius thought quietly as he sat inside the moving carriage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I just need to score high enough to get placed in the same class as my Rose. But when that trash arrives, Rose will be in a very difficult position.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’She will lose the student council president election, and she already has a deep grudge against that trash’s family.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He narrowed his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’The reason my Rose became the villainess in the original story was because of what happened to her mother, my mother-in-law.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’She came from that family, but the Thornes killed her.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’They wrongly believed she had leaked their family secrets to the Valentina clan. In truth, those secrets would only be revealed much later.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’But my Rose would never believe that. She would want revenge. She would want to destroy them all.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’And of course, I will help her. I have my own debt to settle with that trash. In the novel, he manipulated my stupid past self into killing my Rose. I won’t let that happen again.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius frowned deeply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’But that trash’s system is the biggest problem.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whenever he thought about that system, his expression turned sour. It was a complete cheat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It gave him daily rewards for doing almost nothing. And the skills it provided were even worse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For example, he could become invincible for one full minute.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During that time, no one, not even a spell caster at the Infinite Core stage, could touch him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And if someone actually managed to kill him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom. He would go back in time. Regress.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the original story, Julius had killed him many times, outsmarting him, trapping him, striking perfectly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But every time, that trash would return to the past with all his future knowledge and change everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius clenched his fist slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’That system has to be dealt with. Somehow.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The carriage rolled on smoothly toward the mansion, but Julius remained lost in his dark thoughts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he thought about these things, the scenery outside the carriage began to change.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’We aren’t far from the mansion now,’ Julius realized. He looked out the window and recognized the familiar road.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Children were playing happily by the roadside while their mother ran after them, laughing and calling their names.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius watched them quietly. For a moment, his thoughts drifted to his own mother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fortunately,\" he muttered under his breath, \"I told that trashy author to make Julius’s parents the same as my real ones.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A wave of melancholy passed over his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His parents had died in a terrible accident when he was only thirteen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After their death, he had slowly gone a little crazy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were other reasons too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When grief made him stop going to school for a long time, his so-called friends forgot about him completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he finally returned, they acted like they had never known him at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Were they only friends with me because of my parents’ money?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He never found the answer. But after they abandoned him, the darkness inside him grew even deeper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haaa...\" He let out a long, tired sigh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was about to look away from the window when his eyes suddenly caught a small girl, around seven or eight years old, standing a little apart from the other children.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes widened slightly. Something from the TST clicked in his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah... she should be here, right?\" he murmured to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without hesitation, excitement and urgency filled his voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alfred! Turn the carriage. Go east. Now!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"East?\" Alfred called back through the small window that connected to the driver’s seat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Young Master, east is—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius cut him off sharply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alfred didn’t argue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He gave a quick nod, pulled the reins, and turned the carriage toward the east road. The horses picked up speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius leaned closer to the window, his gaze locked on the small girl in the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A cold, determined smile slowly formed on his lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let’s steal some opportunities...\" he whispered to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>______\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A\u002FN: We will use TST for ’The Severed Thread’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thank you for reading.🙂‍↕️\u003C\u002Fp>",1487,"2026-06-10T05:56:21.839Z",1,"novelbin.me","ab9a186ea2eead5c59761e6983de3669f8572bec30e165ef42d4806f6cdff14c","villainess-x-villain-they-are-obsessed-with-each-chapter-213","villainess-x-villain-they-are-obsessed-with-each-chapter-212",220,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fvillainess-x-villain-they-are-obsessed-with-each-cover.jpg"]
