Author Reincarnated as Villain

A day had passed since the birth of Oliver and Olivia. Everyone's attention was fully focused on the pair of twins.

Unbeknownst to them, Van had undergone an extraordinary development.

Inside Van's room, he was sitting on a bed that was far too large for a small child.

However, Van didn't mind as his gaze was fixed on the hologram screen in front of him.

"My attributes are already strong enough to defeat a child my age. Besides, I have one of the most terrifying skills in this novel," Van muttered, his eyes focused on the [101 Shadows] skill.

[101 Shadows] was the reason why the Black family could become one of the seven strongest families in the Avalon Kingdom.

In fact, [101 Shadows] was a skill belonging to the ancestors of the Black family and had never been found in their descendants.

"Van is the only person who masters [101 Shadows] besides the ancestors of the Black family," Van muttered.

As the author, of course, Van knew best how terrifying the potential of the [101 Shadows] skill was.

Van then snapped his fingers and muttered, "[Slime]."

Van's shadow churned and a slime suddenly emerged from behind Van's shadow.

Van looked at the slime in front of him, which was the size of an adult human head, and felt a sense of familiarity with the creature.

"Currently, I can only summon one slime. In the future, it will definitely be better," Van muttered.

[Slime] was the weakest creature among the [101 Shadows]. However, this weak little creature would be useful at certain times.

Just as Van was lost in thought, a knock at the door startled him.

"Who is it?" Van asked.

"It's Sebastian, Young Master. It's time for your nobility lesson," Sebastian said from behind the door.

"Alright. I'll be in the library in 5 minutes," Van replied.

- - - - -

After walking for quite some time, Van finally arrived at the library in the Black family mansion. A very large library with a lot of books.

In the middle of the room, Sebastian stood with a stack of books beside him.

"Good morning, Young Master," Sebastian greeted.

"Good morning, Sebas," Van replied.

"Are you ready?" Sebastian asked.

"Hurry up. Don't talk too much nonsense," Van replied.

"Alright. Today's lesson is specifically about history. A long time ago..."

Hearing Sebastian's explanation, Van quickly became bored. This kind of knowledge was already firmly planted in his brain.

The answer was simple. Because he was the one who created that history.

A thousand years ago, there lived a very powerful Demon King, but his nature was very arrogant and conceited. Because of his ambition, the Demon King intended to dominate the entire world.

How unlucky the Demon King was because there was a party of eight people who were blessed by the [Gods] and tasked with defeating the Demon King.

The party of eight then worked together with creatures from various races to fight the Demon King.

However, the title of Demon King was not just an empty title. The hero party had difficulty fighting the Demon King until in the end they could only seal him.

Even so, the Demon King was considered to have been defeated and it was a victory for the world.

The leader of the party then founded the Avalon Kingdom and the other 7 became Dukes of the Avalon Kingdom. That was the beginning of the 7 greatest families in the Avalon Kingdom.

The [Black], [White], [Gold], [Silver], [Blue], [Green], and [Red] families in the Avalon Kingdom.

As for the party's companions, they all went their separate ways. Some founded their own kingdoms. Some went wandering. Some left the life of fighting and lived peacefully.

After the nobility lesson was over, Van immediately left the library. While walking along the corridor, Van accidentally passed his two younger siblings' room.

Out of curiosity, Van finally stopped walking. Van stood still in front of the door and looked at the doorknob with his red eyes.

"Van, what are you doing?"

Hearing a familiar voice in his ear, Van was startled a little and immediately turned to the side.

Van saw a beautiful woman with blonde golden hair and red eyes walking towards him. The soft gaze made Van, who was always tense, relax a little.

"Nothing, Mother," Van replied, looking at his mother's face with a flat face.

Victoria Aurelius. 25 years old. Her golden blonde hair made people often think she was from the [Gold] family. In fact, his mother was not from the Avalon Kingdom, but from a family that was no less powerful than the [Black] family.

Unfortunately, that family was a nomadic family who loved to travel the world. The Aurelius family was a family with a very unique bloodline. Everyone who had the Aurelius bloodline would awaken a unique eye power.

Van, who inherited the Aurelius bloodline from his mother, of course had a unique power from the Aurelius family, namely [Void Eye]. As for his mother, she had the power of [Appraisal Eye] which allowed her to see someone's status without any problems.

That was why his father was very happy when he saw him. Because Van inherited the [101 Shadows] skill which was a skill belonging to the ancestors of the Black family.

Although [Appraisal Eye] seemed ordinary in a match, but don't underestimate his mother.

Victoria Aurelius. Wife of a William Black. Daughter of the head of the Aurelius family. The strongest sorceress in the Avalon Kingdom.

"Is that so? Does my cute Van want to meet his younger siblings?" Mother Van asked with a small smile.

"Don't talk nonsense, Mom," Van replied with a flat face.

"What a naughty child. You're growing up too fast," Mother Van said.

Mother Van then opened the door to the room and turned to Van.

"Come in," Mother Van said.

'Thank goodness I designed Van's shortcomings as someone who can't express emotions. If not, I might have difficulty maintaining my expression right now,' Van thought as he followed his mother.
