When Did I Become An Artifact Dealer?!

"How cruel!" Sellene stomped her feet in anger. "How could he do that?! He killed a cat and a human! Better at playing emotions?! Although some people are a bit manipulative, they aren’t that malicious. They don’t aim to kill!"

Cail cleared his throat. He’s probably not as despicable as Virehn, right? He had a cat, Blackie. He never harmed any animals... But he murdered humans... But they weren’t that good either!

Then Cail suddenly slapped his helmet to Sellene’s shock.

"Why am I comparing myself to this scum?" Cail felt that he got carried away. It wasn’t really denial, but more like a feeling of competition.

Sellene was side-eyeing him, but they continued to listen and the recording was still ongoing.

[That is when I realized that this guy is dangerous for humanity.

I recorded evidence and sent them to my superiors. They ignored it. I think they probably noticed that something was wrong with Virehn, but since he is a genius, they didn’t take any action.

Since then, I had been against him. Warning people about him. But alas, Virehn was right about one thing. He is better at manipulating people’s emotions. I became a jealous one, I became the crazy researcher. They called me heretic since I would be the first to disagree with Virehn’s proposals.

Virehn didn’t think much of me. I got a feeling that he thinks of me as some kind of bug.

Virehn was a demon, that’s for sure.

I continued my role as an antagonist. Then Virehn proposed the project Coreline. The same as before, I protested against it. Although I had no idea what his plans were, I’m sure he was up to no good.
