Life Of A Nobody - as a Villain

Rio looked at the girl beside him and said "Is this how you greet your friends now? No wonder no one visits you once they leave the academy."

Hearing his words and that amusing laugh, The girl increased her strength around his neck, just trying to choke him. "You little, it seems you really did grow up a little huh. Now you're even talking back to me."

Rio placed his hand on her stomach and released a wave of mana, blasting her in the air. "I can even beat you up now. Why won't I dare."

"You, good very good." The girl said as she stood on a metal platform in the air, and looked at him aggrievedly. "I'll blast out pain receptors again, see how you come crying to me then." She said, as she jumped down the platform.

"Do that, and I'll tell your grandpa, that you're the one who scrapped _ "

"Fine, shut up. You're gonna get me kicked out." The girl said, stopping him from speaking anything else, in front of the whole class. "You better come by the shop, once you're done with your tests, or I'm really messing up your VR capsule next time." She said and turned around to leave. She tapped on her tablet a few times, and a metal platform came beneath her feet and she left.

From the beginning to end, she didn't even take a glance at anyone else in the hall or even noticed their presence.

"Brother, who was she?" Amelia asked as she came near him. Followed by Rebecca.

"That's Joi, she's a researcher here. You see those capsules we're about to enter_."

"Don't tell me, did she make them?" Amelia asked in a surprised tone.

"No, I was gonna say they were made by her grandfather." Rio replied with a smile.

"So what did she do?" Rebecca asked.

"Well, she _ she helps around."

"She's a lazy idiot just like you, isn't she?" Rebecca asked as she looked at him defending her.

Rio was just thinking about what to say cause what she does is kinda similar to him. He can't just say she's gonna be the next best techie of Arcadia right. Well, let's just stay silent.

An old man with white two part mustache came forward and started speaking. "Students, since everyone's here, I won't waste your time. From where you're standing now, you can see two large halls on the side." He said, and Neon pathways leading to those halls lit up on the ground. "On the right side is the hall for all the girls, you can follow along the lines and go inside. The left side is for the boys."

"Once you're there, just look for the capsule with your name on it, or just search up your identification number on the watches and it'll light up for you." The old man said, guiding everyone.

"Master, _ master." Joi called the old man as she appeared behind the old man. But when he didn't hear her, she shouted again "Grandpa"

"What?" The old man asked about why she was interrupting his speech.

"You forgot about the suits. The suits remember." Joi said as she signaled the old man about the clothes.

The old man understood after a little time, laughed a little and said "ohh before you enter anything or go anywhere, you might wanna collect your suits for the VR and then proceed to the hall." He finished his words and tapped on his watch as a transparent screen popped up on it. "You all got a notification on your watch, so just fill out your details in that form and the drones will get you your suits."

"Once you reach your respective halls, you can change into them. Before you ask, there are several booths made inside, so you can be rest assured about your privacy."

As his words finished everyone's watches buzzed up with a notification sound and they all started filling out their details in the said form. It wasn't anything much, just the same data they first submitted to the academy - name, ID number, blood type, health conditions, or any previous incident or experience with similar technology etc.

Rio looked at his notification and could just glare upwards at Joi, who was just waiting for his reaction. [Student Rio Blake, already exists in the username list. Unknown credentials.]

[You should've come by the shop earlier if you wanted to get a new ID.] Joi's message popped up on his watch and he could just turn it off.

After filling the details of the registration id he was given two years ago, he successfully logged in. And a drone soon came in and dropped a package over his head. Catching the box before it hits him, he just gave a final angry glare at Joi before walking inside, one of the booths at the side.

Removing his blue academy jacket and trousers he stored them into his storage ring and started putting on the new black color suit.

After fighting with that for five minutes he finally managed to put it on.

'Damn the bastard who made these suits.' Rio cursed as he finally managed to breathe a sigh of relief once he was done struggling with his suit.

As the name suggests the suits were 'skin-tight' meaning that one could feel all his muscles getting tightly compressed by the suit. It felt like someone just laminated all his body and wrapped it in a tight plastic.

Wearing this suit made his movements become extremely stiff. Because it was so weird, it looked like he was a robot, and not even human anymore. Moreover, Looking at his own appearance in the mirror , he wished he could just find a place to bury himself or throw all these suits aside.

It was freaking embarrassing to look at.

Thankfully the academy didn't give this kind of suit outside this facility, or he'd have to walk around the whole campus wearing this abomination every time there was something VR related.

That would've been a true walk of shame.

But now he just needed to leave this booth and go find his capsule and that was it.

Walking out of the cabin, Rio looked around and noticed almost everyone was walking around in a robot like manner. Some students still walked normally, showing that they were used to this kind of suits and the VR routine.

Probably all the rich kids and families had their children adjust to all the situations, plus they might've just bought VR to play games since they were a kid.

Though the products of this dungeon were a little better than the ones outside, still some of the students got used to these suits easily.

Everyone was looking around curiously to see each other's reactions, and Rio could just sigh at himself. He would have been fine too if not for Joi.

'I should really get her kicked out from here.' Rio thought as he looked at the difference between his suit and the ones others had. His was simply the old version and looked like their ancestor.

This just drew everyone's focus on him even more, and he could just act like he didn't notice and increase his pace towards his capsule.

Easier said than done though, with his stiff movement, he even felt he might fall down somewhere in between.

'Atleast girls are not here.' Rio thought as he relaxed thinking it was only boys in this hall. If there were tons of girls filled in this hall, walking around in these skin tight suits, he didn't know what would happen.

'Though if there were girls, no one would look at him then right. After all, the figures of all those heroines and villainesses were on display.'

'I wonder how they'd look though.'

[Stop imagining weird things, host.]

[I'm warning you, if you need to think up some fantasies and fetishes, just tell me beforehand, so I can cut our connection.]

The system came out and started speaking in its righteous robotic voice, like it just saw some injustice happening in his mind.

'What, it's normal that my mind would imagine how they'd look. It's not like I got perfect control over everything and wouldn't think anything. I'm a young man too, you know.'

[Ohh so now you're a young man. You literally lived for 40 years now. 30 on earth and 10 here. The girls here aren't even half that age. Tsk tsk tsk this host is a pedo_]

–muted–

'Damn you, system. See if I unmute you for a week this time.' Rio cursed it in his head and closed all the panels.

[Hela takes note of your appearance.]

Rio, who had just closed the system, looked at Hela's notification and a black line formed over his head. 'She's gonna show it to Loki, isn't she?'

'Damn it, Leon. It's all because of you. Get ready to be beaten.'

Rio blamed every scenario on Leon's head and decided to give him one more punch for this embarrassing scene.

Leon, who was enjoying everything, and was excited about his first VR experience, suddenly had a bad premonition that said 'Just run away' yet he couldn't understand why?

VR suits were designed from advanced nanofiber materials that just stick close to the wearer's body. The suits featured biometric sensors, seamlessly woven into the fabric, which enabled real-time monitoring of the user's vital signs. This data was crucial for ensuring the user's safety during VR experiences.

Tiny haptic nodes were also discreetly integrated into the suits, enhancing the sense of touch in the virtual world. These nodes provided sensations like pressure, warmth, texture, and everyone's favorite, pain -adding to the realism of the experience.

The suits also featured a built-in temperature regulation system, capable of adjusting the temperature of the user's body in case of some emergency.
