After redeeming the villain with love and preventing his descent into darkness, I was joyfully preparing for retirement.
But when I woke up, the blackened villain from another timeline was standing by my bed.
And the villain I had saved just happened to push open the door and walk in.
They stared at each other.
I clutched my head in agony: "System!! Fix the bug quickly! Ahhh!"
Later, my retirement plan was completely scrapped.
The little villain hugged my waist with teary eyes, begging me not to leave.
The big villain pressed against my neck, leaving a circle of teeth marks.
* * *
I am the older brother of the male lead, Caleb. Three years older, no blood relation.
I've been by his side since I was one.
He was afraid of thunder, I held him to sleep.
He was beaten, I fought back for him.
He was abandoned, I took him in.
I taught him, shaped his worldview, and set his moral standards.
Why go to such lengths? All of this was for my own grand plan.
I have a secret.
I am an employee of the World Administration Bureau.
The System detected that the villain in this world was too powerful and would exterminate the male and female leads in the future.
So it sent me to save the villain, Caleb.
As long as his blackening value reaches zero, not only can I receive a huge sum of money, but I can also welcome my retirement!
A retirement life where I get paid every month for doing nothing!
I worked diligently without any negligence.
Finally, on Caleb's 18th birthday.
As Caleb made a wish and blew out the candles, a mechanical system voice also came:
[Congratulations Host, the villain Caleb's blackening value has been cleared.]
Finally!!!!
I was ecstatic, wishing I could dance on the spot.
But on the surface, I still calmly patted Caleb's head, fulfilling my duty as an adopted brother.
"Caleb, you're an adult now. You can't always cry, you have to be independent."
"Big brother can't be by your side every moment."
Caleb nodded obediently.
"Thank you, brother."
Suddenly he asked:
"Will brother stay with me forever?"
I hesitated for a moment, but still answered:
"Of course, brother promises you."
Ate some cake as a gesture.
I pulled up the quilt happily, my mind full of thoughts about retirement life.
I should be able to return to the main world tomorrow.
My identity will be replaced by someone from another department.
Although I do have feelings for this child.
I can still come back to see him with another identity.
After all, having raised him for so long, I really treat him as a younger brother.
The cold wind of the winter night raged, but I slept soundly with the heater on.
Suddenly felt a chill on my stomach in the middle of the night.
I struggled groggily to wake up.
Just opened my eyelids a crack, vaguely seeing a shadow.
Moving around on my chest.
Sleepiness pulled me down again.
I didn't see clearly.
