Bengtie, I'm really not a villain!

[The B+ entry "Blade Spirit" has been extracted. The host can infuse a certain amount of emotion into the blade while forging it. The intensity of the emotion infused into the blade determines its maximum potential.]

Although the "Swordsmith" entry seems to be of a low level, it looks like it could have a significant effect when combined with the new entry.

Moreover, Jing Ye still has the opportunity to strengthen the attributes.

With two opportunities to enhance the "Swordsmith" attribute used, the effect of advancing to A-rank "Swordsmith" is now particularly powerful:

[The host possesses exceptional talent in sword forging, capable of crafting knives that rank among the top ten.]

The remaining two enhancement opportunities were naturally used on the "Blade Spirit" affixes, and the effect of upgrading to S-level affixes was even more exaggerated:

The emotions a host infuses into a blade can greatly enhance its strength, and the host can transfer their self-awareness and body into the blade.

[Please note that when the host's consciousness and physical body are transferred to the blade, the injuries the host receives during combat will be synchronized with the blade's.]

After enhancing the attributes of the knives related to the Underworld, there are only two attributes left to consider when choosing which to equip.

With the last chance to draw an item used up, the item drawn by the Villain Simulator this time was "Observation Haki".

【Observation Haki】This ability allows the user to anticipate an enemy's actions during battle based on their movements, gaze, and even the movement of their muscles and blood.

This is only the effect provided by the C-rank "Observation Haki", while the entry that Jingye drew was directly A-rank.

Therefore, in addition to being able to predict the opponent's actions in battle, "Observation Haki" also gives Keiya the ability to "predict the future based on the behavior and habits of the people around him in daily life".

The effect of this Tier B affix is ​​upgraded to a more useful option for simulated dungeons when it's Tier A.

[The host can foresee the potential consequences of a choice beforehand using Observation Haki.]

This effect is much more convenient for Jingye, saving him the time spent on repeated simulations and trial and error...

As for some simulations that have to be repeated for the sake of achievements and collecting all the CGs, then they have to continue.

In order to deal with this A+ level dungeon, Jingye also brought the entry for "Conqueror's Haki".

[The host is entering the dungeon with the entries "Observation Haki", "Conqueror's Haki", "Sword Spirit", and "Swordsmith"]

Please note that since this instance is accessed through Hanabi's chat group, she may also randomly enter the instance.

Before the simulation began, the villain simulator warned Jingye. Just like Sunday Sister and the robin did last time, Fireworks also had the potential to appear and cause trouble in the instance.

However, Jingye wasn't too worried about the fireworks.

Although he himself was not a believer in pleasure, his behavior and intentions were mostly similar to those of Hanabi.

Fireworks, acting in pursuit of fun, won't cause any major conflict with him; at most, they'll just disrupt some of his plans, and ultimately, Jingye will be the one who benefits.

At most, it only presents some distorted, joyful effects.

Just like how Fireworks deliberately let Sunday Sister go last time.

Sunday Sister should have been hung up, watching the robin announce that she was Star Wrath, but she was powerless to do anything about it.

As a result of the fireworks, Sunday Sister rushed to the stage—but Sunday Sister still couldn't do anything and could only become the sister's rocking horse.

Jingye wasn't worried about Hanabi's intrusion at all; on the contrary, he was somewhat looking forward to what unexpected surprises this little devil could bring him.

Of course, that's assuming that Hanabi, that little brat, doesn't get caught by him.

Jingye was happy to accept the surprise that the fireworks disrupted his plans, but he also needed to vent his frustration at the disruption.

If the fireworks fall into his hands, Jingye wouldn't mind letting this little devil experience the treatment that the previous victims received.

As a fierce glint flashed in Jing Ye's eyes, the simulation officially began.

………………

You were born in Izumo Province at the age of 0.

You were born in a famous village in Izumo Province, a village renowned for producing powerful demons.

[The Conqueror's Haki entry is activated; you shattered all the equipment in the delivery room the moment you were born.]

Despite your mother's injury and everyone present fainting, the crowd was even more ecstatic.

[Because this extraordinary phenomenon at birth signifies that your birth symbolizes the birth of a powerful being!]

At the age of 2, you were the apple of your family's eye and were shown off to everyone.

Many families in the village have produced powerful individuals, so they are very interested in you as an infant, and they can indeed sense your innate strength.

At the age of 3, the most famous family in the village was the Raiden family. Even the most powerful Raiden family head praised you, claiming that "this child will surely dominate the world like a dragon and tiger in the future."

Even Raiden Mei, the most promising newborn in the Raiden family, seems to pale in comparison to you.

[At least when the Raiden family confidently compared you to Raiden Mei, you walked away with a livid face and without saying a word.]

This is your first meeting with Raiden Mei.

[Compared to the Raiden clan who walked away with grim faces, Raiden Mei, still in her swaddling clothes, stared at you curiously. You saw that Raiden Mei's eyes reflected your own.]

Clearly, Raiden Mei has shown a strong interest in you.

However, to your family's disappointment, you have shown very little interest in combat.

At age 5, children are old enough to train. They train together with other children of the same age in the village's martial arts hall.

[In the military academy, you encounter Himeko with fiery red hair.]

You pause, slightly taken aback. How could Himeko appear in Izumo, the homeland of "Yomi"?

Himeko's European appearance and name don't quite fit into the oriental culture of Izumo.

[You quickly realize that this might be due to Hanabi's actions? Was it to allow more interested outsiders to intrude into this instance?]

Regardless, you activated Observation Haki.

[You can see that Himeko is indeed wearing a sexy black bikini under her clothes, just like her hot personality.]

[Afterwards, you performed extremely poorly in the combat training arranged by your family.]

[Raiden Mei was also present. As the daughter of the Raiden clan, which is known as the strongest clan, she lived up to expectations and stood out from the crowd in the martial arts hall.]

However, when the Raiden clan compared you to Raiden Mei, you made her slink away, while your performance was mediocre, or even extremely poor.

[Because you specifically chose Himeko as your instructor at the military academy, and then used your sword to rip open her clothes and take advantage of her.]

[Even though you always get scolded by Himeko, you never tire of it.]

[You showed no interest in listening to the combat techniques they usually taught at the military academy; every time you picked up a weapon, you were just harassing the girls.]

[With Observation Haki, you can accurately tell what color underwear Himeko wears every day.]

[Your poor performance in the military academy wasn't because you lacked fighting talent, but because you had absolutely no desire to fight.]

Having experienced the wars of the Grammer Empire, you have absolutely no interest in training children.

Therefore, you were extremely perfunctory in all training sessions, and even refused to participate, spending your time alone in some unknown place.

As a result, despite the high expectations placed on you by your family, you received an extremely poor reputation, and were even known as the worst samurai in the military academy.

At age 7, despite everyone's extreme disappointment in you, Raiden Mei never gave up her interest in you.

In the military academy, Raiden Mei is uninterested in challenges from all her peers, but her gaze is solely focused on you.

At only seven years old, Raiden Mei already possesses an exceptionally beautiful appearance, and her formidable strength is unmatched by anyone else.

[Rai, still as pure and innocent as a child, is not cold or indifferent, but rather as lively and gentle as an ordinary teenage girl.]

[She also displayed her formidable talent, strength, and resolute demeanor when she picked up the knife.]

The people at the Military Academy call Raiden Mei the "Queen of Lightning," and she is destined to become a powerful figure in the future.

Therefore, everyone chases after Raiden Mei, eager to fight her.

However, Raiden Mei's interest is only in you.

During the time you had to choose your opponent, Raiden Mei repeatedly asked you to have a match.

Nobody knows why Mei would choose you, a useless person who has no will to fight and only knows how to harass girls.

Even though others would consider it an honor to fight Raiden Mei, you still didn't agree to Raiden Mei's request.

However, you didn't let Raiden Mei go so easily.

You sidle up to Raiden Mei, ostensibly to ask for her advice, and travel with her.

[Raiden Mei doesn't believe you can't fight. Compared to the blindness of others, Raiden Mei's eyes are purer; she can clearly see the aura of a strong person emanating from you.]

[Young Raiden Mei simply doesn't understand why you possess such a powerful aura, yet appear so ordinary.]

[It's like you're deliberately hiding your strength and have absolutely no desire to fight anyone; it's as if you're just too lazy to play house.]

But since you shamelessly ask for my guidance, Raiden Mei will teach you...

When she saw you repeatedly taking advantage of Himeko, her master, Raiden Mei's eyes didn't show the same disdain as others, but rather a hint of jealousy that she herself wasn't aware of.

So when she became your "nominal master," Raiden Mei herself didn't realize that she actually had a bit of a possessive, possessive vibe about her food.

Even though Himeko is the strongest in the martial arts academy and is the teacher who teaches Raiden Mei one-on-one, she still has possessive emotions.

However, it was you who groped Raiden Mei.

[Or perhaps fiddling with her belt, or sneaking a tug at her neckline]

[Or perhaps, when no one is looking, you'll always catch a glimpse of Raiden Mei changing clothes, or of her drenched in sweat after training.]

Everyone is jealous and itching to get rid of you and Raiden Mei, but Raiden Mei always manages to deflect any trouble they cause you.

[Because you claimed to be seeking advice from Raiden Mei every day, Raiden Mei treated you as her apprentice.]

Since that's the case, she won't let you be bullied by others until you "graduate" from your apprenticeship.

Despite being the eldest daughter of the powerful Raiden clan, Raiden Mei has none of the airs of a spoiled princess; in fact, she protects you with great tenderness.

It's just a pity that you always seem to have the upper hand when it comes to Raiden Mei's gentleness.

You never "graduated" from your apprenticeship, nor did you ever fight Raiden Mei.

[Every time after the free time for conversation ends and the time spent taking advantage of Raiden Mei ends, when everyone starts their unified training time, Raiden Mei always sees you slipping away from the training hall.]

Because no one has expectations of you, no one will stop you from being lazy.

As for your behavior of following Raiden Mei around, although some people think you are hindering Mei, everyone can only let you do as you please because of Raiden Mei's strong protectiveness.

But your true intention lies in forging the sword.

[By the age of 9, you already had several years of experience in knife forging.]

Because of insufficient strength due to underdeveloped stage, you choose to use a combination of equipment as a solution.

[Thanks to the extraordinary talent granted by "The Swordsmith," you don't need to pick up a forging hammer yourself; you can forge high-quality knives simply by using the automated machinery in your workshop, which you've crafted by hand.]

As time goes by, your skills with knives will become increasingly profound.

[At the age of 14, the knives you forged had already become a hot seller, even a "one-knife-for-all" item.]

Using your talent for forging swords, you earned money to build and construct your own sword-forging workshop.

However, you keep this a secret from everyone in the village; to outsiders, you're still that useless guy who can't even hold a knife.

Meanwhile, the threat posed by Takamagahara to Izumo Province is becoming increasingly serious.

Since the appearance of the black sun, the so-called gods have become symbols of evil, harming the lives of people in Izumo Province.

This is a crisis that Raiden Mei and you have no choice but to face.

Chapter Ninety-Two: On the Idyllic Reunion of the Underworld

Meanwhile, your peers have already become respectable apprentice samurai, and Raiden Mei, who was known as the "Queen of Lightning" since childhood, already possesses the strength to defeat veteran samurai.

After reaching puberty, Raiden Mei displayed terrifying talent, surpassing all others and becoming extremely famous throughout Izumo Province.

Everyone believed that Raiden Mei would be the key figure to end the war between Izumo and Takamagahara.

Among the many people who have taught her, Raiden Mei is most grateful to Himeko, because Himeko's principles of conduct have greatly benefited Raiden Mei.

[Aside from Himeko, the person Raiden Mei cares about most is you.]

Despite being a major celebrity in Izumo Province, Raiden Mei has always maintained her interest in you.

Despite your lack of proper practice, Raiden Mei still considers herself "your master."

Therefore, in Raiden Mei's view, you've never truly mastered your craft, and she'll always keep an eye on you.
