Rebirth: The Villainous Young Master Doesn't Want to Follow the Script

Chapter 148: Commencing to the New World Plot

**********

«… Hello, Eclipse? Can you hear me? »

'What? Who is this? This wasn't Silver, my system companion.'

« …. It seems that it works. I can hear your thoughts now, Platinum world-hopper Eclipse. »

Eclipse frowns as he struggles to open his eyes and when he does, what welcomes him is nothing but the vast darkness that surrounds him.

'Am I inside the system subspace command?'

« …. I seemed to understand why Jules is so fixated with you, Eclipse. You do remind him of someone dears to him. »

Eclipse raised an eyebrow as he looked around within the vast darkness that surrounds him as he didn't know from which direction that voice came from because this system hadn't materialized itself as they were already inside of this system subspace.

'Someone dears to the Lord God himself? Who that might be? Also, who are you anyway? The way your speech is different from my system companion Silver. Although Silver is a sentient system on its own however, Silver still couldn't perceive emotion that much, unlike you, it's as if I'm talking to an actual person.'

« …. For someone who isn't that much of a talker back at the Main House System, you sure have a lot of questions that seems to be lining up within your thoughts already. »

Eclipse could only snort as he crossed his arms around his chest while looking nowhere and spoke.

'Of course, I have questions lining up through my thoughts because it's been three years since the system interface has been shut down and for the two of us, me and Arico to be stranded in this worldline. Can you blame me for that?'

« …. No, of course not. You have every right to question us, especially me and I'll answer your questions as much as I can but remember, you have some questions within your thoughts that could be considered confidential for now. »

Eclipse raised an eyebrow once more and said; 'And what are those questions that I have within my thoughts that can be considered as confidential for now?'

« …. Your current situation. »

The world-hopper almost stumbled on the ground as he suddenly remembered something and that made him frown even further.

'My current situation? You mean….'

Eclipse got cut off when the world-hopper immediately heard the familiar sound of notifications coming from the system command center through the interface.

« ….. DING! System Interface restored! Calculating previous progression rate of the world plot…. »

'What? Is that progression rate still counts? It's been three years since then…'

Eclipse thought as he waited for the system command center to tabulate all the progress from that worldline, but the world-hopper feels like it won't matter anymore since from the rumors all these years when he left that continent, the world-plot seems to be collapsed.

« ... DING! Progress of the world plot [Mystique Enchantress] …. No longer could be calculated…. The world plot of this worldline has been collapsed because the chosen one had been freed from the shackles that binds her in the designation role of the [Heroine]. »

Now, this is something that the world-hopper didn't expect to happen.

'The worldline of [Mystique Enchantress] has been collapsed because of the heroine had freed from the shackles that binds her from that designation role?'

With that thought, Eclipse tried to pull out the System Archive to check the information for [Mystique Enchantress], but the world-hopper couldn't pull it out because of the exclamation point symbol that imprints on that area.

'What the hell?'

Eclipse hissed in annoyance because this is the first time for him as a world-hopper that this kind of phenomenon had happened to him, but he didn't dare to make another move, lest there would be a problem if he happened to recklessly try to solve things from here.

For now, all he needs to do is to wait for any notification that would pop out within the system interface and watch closely.

« ... DING! System initiation…. »

The world-hopper could only watch at the holographic screen in front of him and wait patiently for further system notification.

« ….. DING! System detection of character anomaly from the previous world plot…. Main villain character of [Mystique Enchantress] "Ezekiel Zephyr Chevalier" role change into [???] character "Eclipse ??? ???" progress rate…. 10.569%... 15.998%.... 25.54%.... »

'What is this? My character role? Character anomaly?' ??!?????-*??-

« .... 34.58%.... 59.20%.... 68.88%.... »

Eclipse could only watch the system screen as the percentage of his previous character role suddenly rose up to a whole different level that even he himself couldn't help but to be anxious as he bit his lip nervously.

'Why do I have the feeling that the sudden reinstated of the system command would fall me into something deep that I'm sure I won't be able to escape with.'

« ….. 72.52%.... 75.33%... 84.74%... »

'Just what kind of situation was this?! Also, how long had I passed out from the outside world?'

Eclipse vaguely remembered that after he felt a sudden dizziness and clutches his head because of the sudden pain that struck through his head, the last thing he vaguely remembered is that Xylon Sanders managed to catch him before he could fall on the ground and after that, everything went blank.

« .... 88.36%....91.20%.... 95.55%.... »

"Just what the f*cking hell is this?! Don't tell me…. Another designation role for me because I change places and that?! Oh, come on! The only reason for me to be reincarnated back to my original timeline because of my condition and that incident happened back at my last worldline mission!"

Eclipse gritted his teeth in annoyance because even though he denied it but from the looks of it, no matter how much he didn't want to but at the end, it seems like the world-hopper would be forced to take up a designation role this time.

'Well, it doesn't matter since I'm a world-hopper and it's our job to take upon mission tasks from different worldlines.'

It doesn't matter for what role Eclipse would be signing with and if he happens to take upon a role of a [villain] then, that would be the first time in his millennium years as a world-hopper for him to finally got a role of a [villain].

« ... 97.22%.... 99.9%.... 100%! DING! System command complete! Minor villain character of [Mystique Enchantress] "Ezekiel Zephyr Chevalier" has been altered and commencing new information! System command for initiation of the new world plot! »

"Excuse me, what?! Altered my character information?! Also, a new world plot? What in the…?"

Before he could react any further, the world-hopper's eyes went wide open and almost stumbled on the floor because of the content of the new world plot and the characters for this world plot.

...…..

[HEIR OF THE MYTHIC SOVEREIGN]

World Plot Summary

In a world were humans, mythical creatures, gods and demons are all together in one land full of mysteries that could be unfold.

In Vertum Continent, there are four powerhouse Empires built and ruled by different races, cultures and traditions at the beginning of time. The four powerhouse Empires are namely; ELFEN EMPIRE, MORPHIC EMPIRE, HELVETIA EMPIRE, and the CLIFFTON EMPIRE.

The story starts in Cliffton Empire, an empire with the largest human population amongst the four powerhouse empires. In this empire, both commoners and nobles were able to awaken their own abilities at the age of five years old.

However, the only difference between these two are… nobles, as they were trained at a young age and for them to hone their abilities earlier than those with the commoners. Not only that, but the nobles are fortunate to receive a blessing from one of the Gods the moment they were awaken, unlike those with the commoners but only a few of them could receive such blessing.

Within the Cliffton Empire, the story starts with an 18-year-old Eclipse Sirius, an adventurer who rose from the ranks to become one of the S-Rankers and was also granted a noble peerage as the Lord by accordance of the Imperial Law of the Cliffton Empire, albeit he could only be considered as a semi-noble, together with his cousin, Adrian "Arico" Sirius, who is also an S-Rank adventurer.

As for those people who had known him, Eclipse was described as an indifferent and calm individual with immeasurable magic affinity within him. No one knew about his background, but they only knew that he wasn't a native of this Empire.

As for his background? He is a former noble child from Cranus Continent's Stellarus Empire, an illegitimate child from the Grand Duke Chevalier household, Ezekiel Zephyr Chevalier.

He fled from that place in order to get away from those people who had harmed and make him suffer since his biological mother died when he was young.

With the help of Rheina Clandestine, the matriarch and the twentieth generational Leader of Clandestine clan and Arcanum De Fleur, an organization of group of assassins, gave something to Eclipse before the said man went off to his journey outside of the continent and advise the young man to embark on at Vertum Continent's Cliffton Empire.

However, because of that one item coming from Rheina Clandestine, Eclipse's whole life would change, and his unknown fate will be discovered as he uncovered the secrets of the world.
