Fated to Be Loved by Villains

0% “...Is this really something to be done in a hurry like this?”

That was a natural question to ask in this situation.

Only two days had passed since the Holy Land made that big fuss, and even the Prophet had to join in to suppress the chaotic aftermath.

And yet...

“Surely we can take our time for the wedding. It’s not like it’s urgent or some—”

I was about to finish my words before I clenched my mouth shut.

If there was something that I had developed the most throughout my journey so far, it would be my survival instinct.

In that sense, the threatening aura I felt from Eleanor’s hand as it crept up on my shoulder was something else. It was enough to make all the hair on my body stand on their ends.

“-C-Come to think of it, today’s a good day for it. T-They did say that you have to strike while the iron is hot, didn’t they?”

“Mhm.”

The moment she heard me say so, she tapped the back of my neck and disappeared, leaving me behind as I broke in a cold sweat.

‘Do a good job,’ that was what that tap meant.

[You can’t even get a word in anymore, huh?]

Of course! She has the Gray Devil on a leash! How am I supposed to go against that?!

[...Good point.]

In the past, I was still able to resist since I had a lot of means to do so, like the Fallen’s Seal and other stuff.

Now, it really felt as if the power over my life and death—my everything, was in her hands.

She wasn’t trying to show it off, but it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that she had already reached the level of a half-God.

...No, that’s downplaying it even.

She wasn’t a half-God.

But a living and walking God Almighty.

[And you’re the one she’s obsessed with, to the point that she’ll even risk her life for you?]

“...”

[...Hang in there.]

Thank you, Caliban.

For sincerely worrying for me instead of laughing at me mockingly with Valkasus like you used to do.

As I organized my thoughts gloomily like that, my father suddenly trudged next to me.

“...You have such a significant number of guests, Son.”

He said so with a haggard face. I couldn’t even tell what kind of suffering that he had been through.

“Are there? I don’t think it’s that many...”

Even after I looked around, the place didn’t seem so crowded.

It just seemed like the usual number of guests in a wedding hall to me.

“What are you saying? This place is full of people who hold significant positions in their respective countries...”

“...”

“If Astrid hadn’t helped me, I would’ve died...”

My father wasn’t someone who’d use harsh words or bad words around me.

But, seeing his current condition, I could feel that he’d hit me for the first time in my life if I were to say something wrong here.

“-Anyway, it’s about to start.”

I said while getting up from my seat.

From here, I could see Eleanor, wearing a dress that was much more sparkly than before, walking with clear footsteps towards the waiting room on the opposite side.

“...”

Looking back...

It took me so long to get here.

Two kinds of people gathered around me, those who spoke against marriage, saying that it would be the grave of one’s life, and those who supported it, saying that it was a new start for anyone’s life.

But, in my eyes, both were in the wrong.

To me, marriage meant that everything was really over.

It meant I could have ‘my own life’ from now on instead of bearing the fate of the world or whatnot.

You see, I wasn’t an emotional person, but at this moment... How should I put this...?

I felt overwhelmed.

So much so to the point I wondered if I had ever felt this way in my life.

“The groom and the bride!”

But, as if telling me that I had no time to be absorbed in such thoughts, the host’s voice entered my ears.

“Get ready! It’s about to start!”

“...?”

Huh.

Is this supposed to be like this?

Aren’t the groom and the bride supposed to enter while holding hands with their parents, then there will be congratulatory speeches and something like that?

Get ready? For what?

What’s about to start??

Before I could even continue those thoughts...

Eleanor, who was facing me from the waiting room on the opposite site, ran towards me and grabbed me by the collar.

“Uh, Eleanor...?”

“We have no time to dawdle around, Dowd!”

Just when I was about to ask her what was going on, she firmly cut my words and dragged me away by the collar.

What the hell is happening...?!

Then, as she did that...

God knows when did she have the time to prepare all this—a hovercar that had been hidden under the floor revealed its huge body while destroying the floor itself, making the debris fly in all directions.

This was the thing that the Magic Tower had used the other day—the thing that had no business being in this world considering its average technological advancements.

Just when did she even have the chance to hide this...?

“Why the hell did you even prepare this?!”

“Hm? To screw them over, of course.”

Eleanor said before letting out a cunning smile.

Before I could even ask what she meant by that, the situation immediately turned urgent.

-!!

-!!!!!

A part of the hall’s wall was shattered to pieces.

From the huge hole that formed on the wall, all the Devil’s Vessels and their main bodies rushed into the hall.

All I could tell was that most of the Vessels’ eyes were filled with rage.

“There she is!!!”

“You bitch!! You told us the fake location and time, how dare...!”

“I can’t believe we lost in an information warfare of all things...!”

“...”

This is a wedding, why the hell would an information warfare be needed!?

Screw that, they seemed like they were completely prepared for an invasion. I knew my mother had prepared all sorts of barriers to surround the wedding hall, but these women broke through everything when they barged in.

“...”

‘What the hell is that?! A group of zombies?!’

The guests started to make a fuss, but then again it was a normal reaction considering that there were a lot of women who had invaded the hall.

Like...

There had always been a lot of women around me.

But now that the Devil’s main bodies were also included, that number just instantly doubled.

And the sight of that many women screaming with malice and anger was giving me chills in my spine.

“Don’t you fuck with meee—!!”

“Oi, Gray Devil, or whatever you are! Come out, you bitch!! Let’s settle this!!”

“...”

Why the hell are you guys so angry...?

You guys are going to have your turn later, you just need to wait a little...

[I don’t think that’s the point here.]

What?

[It’s not about them getting their turn or not, it’s just they couldn’t stand to see one of them being happier and doing better than they currently are.]

...

Is that what it is?

As I held my dizzy head because I couldn’t understand such a mentality, Eleanor, who had already got on the hovercar, nodded cooly.

“I already knew that they’d come to interfere around this time.”

“The fact that you still carried on with the wedding even though you knew that means you’re ready to fight, huh?” 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

“Yes, I waited for them on purpose, but it isn’t because of that. It’s so that they’d feel more miserable.”

Eleanor said so...

Then, she held my head and kissed me.

“...!”

Before I could even open my eyes in surprise, her tongue had already entered my mouth and swept the inside of my mouth as if harassing it.

“-Hm, hm—”

It wasn’t a light kiss that was meant as a greeting, but a kiss with a deep sexual meaning, as if she was trying to claim her ‘ownership’.

Our saliva leaked out, stretching out as our lips parted from each other, accompanied by the sounds of our breathing that sounded like we were reveling in pleasure.

“...”

“...”

Eleanor, who ended the kiss that was so intense that even the Devil’s Vessels who had been so angry could only stare blankly at us, wiped her mouth while turning her head at them.

A ‘victory’ smile was hanging on her lips.

“Stand in line. This man is mine and mine only for the time being. Play with yourself if you want to do it so badly.”

With such words...

“We’re going to enjoy our honeymoon. Please excuse us.”

Eleanor said, while everyone in the hall froze in a daze.

“You motherf—!”

“I swear, I’m going to skin you alive and—!”

“Just wait, I’ll tear your intestine and strangle you with—!”

“...”

The hovercar flew into the air violently as we listened to the savage curses coming from people who I could call comrades.

As expected from my life, I guess.

Nothing went right until the very end.

●

Now...

Inside a villa somewhere in this world; the place where we came to after we made such a scene...

I was shaking in fear.

“...”

I didn’t have much experience when it came to marriage, but I believed that a honeymoon should be romantic at the very least.

What I was trying to say here was...

It didn’t need to be a deep occasion where I could melt in romance or melodrama...

I would be fine with anything, as long as chains, handcuffs, knives, or shackles weren’t involved!

“...Um, Eleanor?”

“Hm?”

As I stared at Eleanor, who was casually organizing such items while making rattling sounds, I couldn’t help but ask carefully.

“...What are you going to use those for...?”

“Ah, no need to worry. I didn’t prepare these items so that I could use them for their intended use.”

“...Pardon me?”

Then, what are you going to use them for?!

“I have a lot of plays I want to try.”

“...”

“So, prepare yourself.”

No, wait...!

Wait, wait!

Hey...!

Before I could even say something in desperation, a window suddenly popped up before my eyes.

< System Message >

“...”

...I won’t die?

Just what kind of things is she going to do to me that the system gave me such an ability?!

“It cannot be helped.”

In front of me...

“From the moment you caught my eye—”

Eleanor, who was approaching me while carrying a pair of handcuffs with a smile...

Said those words with a gaze that sent chills down my spine.

“-Your fate has been decided.”

It was definitely the expression of a villain.

-Fin.
