Bengtie, I'm really not a villain!

However, because your "Stealing" stole the wisdom of the Black Tower, the Black Tower family deviated from the expected effect and had to postpone the plan to sacrifice the Black Tower.

[And when you first died at the hands of the Black Tower family, the Black Tower was probably sacrificed as well.]

Because you won your first contest with the Black Tower, the "Great Black Tower" discovered that it possessed enough wisdom to make a sacrifice.

[When you simulated the battle again and competed against the Black Tower, you threatened her not to reveal your defeat after winning, which is why the family did not discover this.]

This allowed you and Black Tower to successfully enter university alive and meet Ruan Mei...

As you, Heita, and Ruan Mei demonstrate more and more wisdom at university, the Heita "family" finally sets its sights on you.

Until now

[At this moment, after multiple simulations, you have completely shattered the "Stealing" skill and gained powerful magical abilities in exchange for it. There is no chance to start over, because the Black Tower will be destroyed in the next simulation, and the entire dungeon will be trapped in a vicious cycle.]

Fortunately, you succeeded. Your power was sufficient to contend with the "Great Black Tower" on equal terms. During the battle, you awakened the Black Tower's magical talents, and ultimately, you defeated all the masterminds and killed the "Great Black Tower."

With the death of the mastermind behind the "Great Black Tower," the power of countless puppets and magic has all fallen into the hands of the Black Tower.

Unlike the "Great Black Tower," which had become twisted from centuries of surviving, she, newly born, still possessed the heart of a child.

She repaid the debt of blood in full, atoning for the losses suffered by the families of all those unfortunate victims of the "Great Black Tower."

And the wisdom of the "Great Black Tower"... all belongs to the Black Tower.

After the death of the evil "Great Black Tower," the Black Tower truly became the only one left in the world, the real Great Black Tower.

After that, there were no more Black Tower families, no more assassinations, only true geniuses born into this world.

During the post-crisis cleanup, the Great Black Tower suddenly questions you, asking if you were already aware of the crisis.

[The Great Black Tower, now fully recovered, easily deduced the connection between your heinous acts against her and Ruan Mei and your sudden acquisition of powerful magical abilities.]

Although you didn't say it during the Great Black Tower's interrogation, the Great Black Tower deduced the conclusion itself:

[You committed those heinous acts to save her and Ruan Mei, becoming the greatest villain in the eyes of Black Tower and Ruan Mei.]

You smiled noncommittally at this conclusion.

Since we've already reached the end, does it even matter what your motives were?

Suddenly, you unexpectedly fell to the ground, and both Daheita and Ruanmei, who had previously hated you, showed expressions of panic.

Chapter Fourteen: Villain Simulator

You collapsed into their arms, and looking at their expressions, you realized that you still held a place in their hearts.

Although you committed many unforgivable atrocities against Heita and Ruan Mei, it seems that you only deceived them emotionally.

Did you really cause any harm to Heita and Ruan Mei?

[It's hard to say, but at least the panic shown by Hei Ta and Ruan Mei as they wiped the blood from your face shows that they care about you.]

[Black Tower and Ruan Mei probably never imagined that you, who just moments ago possessed extraordinary power, would suddenly collapse like a frail mortal.]

[You, who just appeared like a hero, blocking all danger and murderous intent for them, how could you one day feel so pale and powerless?]

[Completely different from the cruel tyrant they used to see, who treated them like playthings.]

[Especially the Black Tower, who had been humiliated by you in every way, felt no satisfaction in retaliating when they saw you weakened; instead, they were filled with panic.]

[Because Heita has only just realized that everything you did was for her and Ruan Mei.]

Although understanding your actions and forgiving your sins are two different things, in this moment when you are seemingly on your deathbed, the Black Tower's hatred for you seems to be diluted much more rapidly.

You lay in the arms of Hei Ta and Ruan Mei, your mind blank.

With the end of this battle, the power you gained from completely shattering the modifiers has been exhausted.

As your magical power dwindles, you realize that after returning all the stolen wisdom to the Black Tower, your dull mind can no longer withstand the brilliance of magic.

If it weren't for the protection of magic, your head would have been shattered long ago.

Even so, your brain is already riddled with damage; you've only managed to hold on this long thanks to the magical power that has been repairing it.

As the magical power gradually dissipates, you are unable to repair your damaged brain, finally revealing your weakest side.

Jing Ye's eye twitched. Sure enough, the problem he had noticed when he saw the villain simulator repeatedly mentioning that "using magical power has no effect on returning wisdom" was correct.

This villainous simulator not only fools Black Tower in the simulation, but it also fools him.

However, the simulation is now nearing its end, so it doesn't really matter anymore.

She died in the arms of Heita and Ruanmei, without giving them the chance to avenge the evil she had committed, without giving them the chance to repay her kindness, and without giving them the chance to live out their lives with regret...

Isn't that good enough?

Isn't this another kind of bad reputation?

Heh heh, Black Tower and Ruan Mei can live out their regrets in the Villain Simulator for the rest of their lives!

I wonder if the Great Black Tower, now at its full power, will save me?

Jing Ye suddenly had a bad feeling. Could this guy be trying to get revenge for what he had done before by knocking him to the ground and turning him into Star Fury Force?

Under Jing Ye's suspicious gaze, the content in the villain simulator continued to progress:

The Great Black Tower, now imbued with immense power, used magic to examine your injuries and quickly discovered your problem.

Neither the Great Black Tower nor Ruan Mei could understand how you, without sufficient physical capabilities, could wield such powerful magic.

But they don't have time to find the answer to this question right now because your brain injury is very serious.

Without treatment, you will soon die completely.

Despite the Great Black Tower's best efforts to use magical power to heal your brain, no one but yourself, who knows your own body's structure, can possibly repair it.

When you lose the magical power to repair your brain on its own, even the Great Black Tower is powerless to help.

[You lay in the arms of Daheita and Ruanmei, feeling your eyelids growing heavier and your voice growing more and more indistinct.]

The images of the large black tower and Ruan Mei became increasingly blurry, and you seemed to vaguely see their tearful faces.

Two people who once hated you so much, even those you humiliated and betrayed, are now shedding tears for you.

Your mischievous sense of humor has been satisfied once again, and you smile happily.

As you listen to the fading, faint voice waking you, you slowly close your eyes.

Congratulations on surviving to the end!

[Simulation ended. Based on the host's performance in the simulation, the host is rewarded with two opportunities to draw terms.]

Seeing the villain simulator send him huge congratulatory and celebratory cheers, Jing Ye breathed a long sigh of relief...

Although Black Tower and Ruan Mei are really refreshing and a stress reliever in actual use, it's quite tiring to uncover the mystery of this dungeon.

Surprisingly, this villain simulator has quite an imaginative concept, managing to come up with such a unique backstory for the Great Black Tower.

But what is the actual story of the Great Black Tower? It's hard to say.

Why not just go and ask her if she's ever been with me?

Jing Ye silently made a ridiculous joke, focusing his attention on the rewards offered by the villain simulator.

As the wheel in the villain simulator spun, Jingye glanced at the previously completely shattered "Stealing."

The best outcome would be an entry like "Equivalent Exchange," which grants powerful abilities in exchange for something similar.

If it's a phrase like "One Second Four Breaks" that allows you to easily detect the opponent's weaknesses, that would be good too.

If it's an entry with some kind of beneficial effect, like "Stealing a Sheep," then it's probably acceptable.

What is the draft of "Liuwei Dihuang"?

Under Jing Ye's glaring gaze, the Villain Simulator extracted two entries.

[The Eloquent Tongue is rated B+, elevated due to the experimental methods the host used on the Black Tower and Ruan Mei in the previous instance.]

Your speaking skills are exceptionally refined; you can easily deceive and seduce even a young lady from a wealthy family.

[Other functions await the host's development.]

The seemingly unserious annotation, "other uses yet to be developed," was eventually understood by Jingye after several simulations.

The rating is a perfect B, with just the right amount of detail.

What enraged Jing Ye was another maliciously humorous term drawn by the villain simulator:

[Liuwei Dihuang Wan (a traditional Chinese medicine formula) B+. Weakness sometimes occurs after overexertion and a lack of energy.]

[To help the host survive better in the following instances and in real life, this entry can replenish the host's physical energy in a timely manner.]

With "Liuwei Dihuang Wan" (a traditional Chinese medicine formula), no matter how much the host is tied up and exploited, there shouldn't be any worries.

Jing Ye stared wide-eyed and questioned the villain simulator, "Is this really necessary?"

Putting aside the fact that he was the one who tied up and exploited other women, isn't this entry for "Liuwei Dihuang" a blatant insult to his physical abilities?

Doesn't the villain simulator know about his physical abilities? She saw what he did to Black Tower and Ruan Mei in the simulation.

Even if Ruan Mei and Hei Ta were stacked together, three days and three nights wouldn't be enough to tire him out. Why would he need this thing?

Jing Ye didn't take the entry for "Liuwei Dihuang" seriously at all.

As for the "Eloquent Tongue" skill, which helps improve one's abilities, Jing Ye simply uses it to practice his speaking skills.

Aside from its unconventional uses, this entry might play other roles in later dungeons.

For example, could someone deceive a naive and innocent rich girl who is curious about the outside world, making her follow them wholeheartedly, just to take advantage of her body?

Based on his previous experiences, Jing Ye reasonably deduced that everything the villain simulator provided was foreshadowed and had a corresponding element, just like Chekhov's theory of guns.

Since a gun appeared in the first act, it will definitely be fired in the third act.

Since the villain simulator mentioned this term, it will definitely come in handy later.

However, Jing Ye still didn't believe in the health-boosting "Liuwei Dihuang".

He has absolute confidence in his body; there's no way a woman could weaken him!

Jing Ye glared at the villain simulator, scolding the guy for his self-righteousness.

However, to Jing Ye's surprise, even after the story reached its end and the rewards were distributed, the Villain Simulator still did not exit the "Tears of the Black Tower" dungeon.

Seemingly to allow him to savor the lingering aftertaste of the story, the villain simulator presents the "Easter egg" content.

This refers to the scene mentioned earlier, where he lost his magical power and could not support his injured brain, collapsing into the arms of Black Tower and Ruan Mei.

Villain Simulator lives up to its name. Although it was a bit clueless before, only able to threaten Black Tower in a simplistic and unskilled way, it is still teachable.

The current villain simulator even enjoys the sad aftermath of Black Tower and Nguyen Mai's story.

Presumably, the image of him dying in the arms of Heita and Ruanmei, causing them to turn from love to hate and from hate to love, and having no time to do anything, must have been deeply imprinted on their minds and bodies.

Jing Ye rubbed his hands together, looking forward to seeing Hei Ta and Ruan Mei show the marks he had left on them in their future lives.

Sure enough, dying in a woman's arms, leaving them to weep and regret, is indeed the most delicious thing.

however--

You are not dead.

and many more?

The first line of the "Easter egg" presented in the villain simulator surprised Jing Ye.

In the villain simulator, his death is not depicted.

He didn't seem to?

How could he not be similar?

Jing Ye was prepared to be awarded the title of "Locked Jing" and have it hung on the wall, becoming an indelible stain and source of guilt for Hei Ta and Ruan Mei for the rest of their lives.

He was prepared to earn the title of "Black Moonlight" because of his numerous misdeeds and the conflict of saving them, but now he suddenly says he won't die?

This isn't right; this doesn't fit Jing Ye's script.

Is there any other expert?

Could it be that he not only didn't die in Heita and Ruan Mei's arms, but was actually saved?

This is so cliché! This kind of happy ending is just plain boring.

Jing Ye wanted to see what other novel plots this villain simulator had in store. If the ending was just a boring family reunion, then Jing Ye would have to laugh at how pathetic this villain simulator was.
