Villain of my own novel

Core sat on Henry's lap, flitting her fingers across the keyboard.

"Scan." Core mumbled.

[Skill: Scan activated.]

[Name: Melioration potion. Type: Potion. Rank: A. Effect: Restoration. Value: 700,000 C.]

"Ho! It's worth more than I thought." She mumbled and added the potion on the black market.

Core leaned back after completing the potion registration and noticed Henry dozing off on the chair. She turned to face him for a brief moment before pinching his nose.

"Errm." Henry woke up.

".... Eshwar needs to know the good news too." She said in a cute tone.

".... Yeah, that basta*d will probably flip in joy." Henry mumbled.

***

"'He' made a move." Henry said with a lazy expression.

"Really!" Eshwar exclaimed in joy.

"..... What's going on?" Henry asked, pointing at the dead students.

"..... I need information Henry." Eshwar said to Henry.

'.... Someone is going to die. If he asks 'me' for information, it means he needs this information even if it means sacrificing someone's life.' Henry reminded himself.

"... Do you think 'they' did it?" Henry asked.

"No, I don't 'smell' them....and they would prefer making it seem like a missing case rather than a slaughter case." Eshwar said.

'Yeah, he would have probably 'smelled' them if they had been here even for a second,' Henry reasoned.

"Hello, Sir Henry." Isha walked towards them and greeted Henry.

'Ho! This.... I think this is the longest time he has spent with another girl....' he thought.

Eshwar's curiosity usually fades after he spends some time with a girl he begins to like. He was curious about a girl for a month before he stopped spending time with her and that was the longest time he has ever been with a girl.

He had dated Core after forming the mercenary group, and she was the only one who lasted a month before they stopped seeing each other. Even after dating them, he doesn't treat them any differently... It's just that if he doesn't enjoy their company, his curiosity fades and he stops seeing them.

"Oh! Hello, Miss Isha. Were you here on a dungeon date with Eshwar?" Henry teased Isha with a bright smile.

'This.... Is a big deal! He is talking with another woman for weeks without getting bored of her....' Henry thought, rooting for his friend's success.

The problem with Eshwar is that, he.... Just honestly says what he feels with a 'I don't give a f**k' attitude..... And he once said to a woman he started dating after two weeks 'You're company is getting boring to me.' And that.... was him trying to sound as polite as possible about his feelings after considering about hers.

"Eh? N-no, we're here to test the students until this happened..." Isha blushed and said with a dejected expressions.

"I'm sorry, I was just joking." Henry admitted.

"Want to join us at home anytime soon?" Henry asked Eshwar, formally.

The Uncharted groups code for something important is 'formal language' they would use formal language with each other when their presence is required to begin the 'fun.' They use it in the open when they don't want others to hear about it.

"Yea, I think I'll be suspended..... At least until this case is solved..." Eshwar nodded and glanced at the cadets dead bodies from the corner of his eyes.

"Eh? You guys live together?" Isha asked with a surprised expression.

"Yes, everybody you met last time." Eshwar said nodding his head.

"Really? That woman.. Core too?" Isha asked.

"Pfft. Yes, her too." Henry answered.

".. you can call me if you want...." Eshwar mumbled scratching the back of his head.

'Damn, do.... They even realize they like each other?' Henry thought.

".... Elise was it?" Eshwar mumbled and turned to look at two women from the association.

".... Miss Elise, you can ask the academy if you need anything from me. We'll be leaving for now... Thank you for your hard work." Eshwar said and called all the cadets with a wave of his hand above his head.

"Let's go back for now. And you guys have to get stronger to not become like them." Eshwar pointed to the dead and spoke to his cadets. All of them were drenched in sweat, tears, and snot.

"Henry.... Come with me and we'll leave together." He called out Henry.

Henry nodded his head and started his bike.

VROOOM

"Damn, that guy was scary...." Elise said and everybody agreed unanimously.

"Ah! No. F**k! My camera, aaaaa.." A guy snapped out of reverie and screamed in disbelief, looking at his shattered camera.

"Noooo!!" Every camera people started to exclaim and cry, looking at their cameras.

".... What happened to Hana?" Elise asked, ignoring the media peoples cries.

'This....will be the start of the slaughter spree...' Elise thought looking at the dead cadets.

We need to conduct a thorough investigation to figure out what is going on so that authorities can at least punish the perpetrators and use them as a warning to anyone who might be tempted to follow in the footsteps of a murderer or a psychopath.

'Goddamn, I can already see myself drowning in a mountain of paper work..' Elise thought.

"You guys collect a list of the deceased from the academy, so we can match their limbs and heads to return them to their families. Be careful of how you treat the bodies, if I catch anybody tossing, slacking off or moving them carelessly, I. Will. Have. You. Punished, by the guy who left just now...." Elise commanded and warned the squad members.

"..... Like them." Elise finished her sentence by pointing to Vene Conner and Matthew Smith, who were dazedly lying on the ground. When the squad members imagined themselves in their position, they shuddered as they remembered him hitting them.

"I-I might die from a single hit." A guy mumbled in the middle of squad and everybody agreed silently.

'Damn, that guy is a good influence..... In a bad way...' Elise thought.

"Oi, why are you still in daze? And why the hell did you even back out after looking at his face?" Elise held Seo Hana's shoulders and asked while shaking her back and forth.

"Waaaayyiitttt.... Ssttttooooppp...." Seo Hana tried to speak while Elise shook her back and forth non stop.

"IIII'mmmm gooonnn toooo ppppuuuukkkkkeee..." Seo Hana pleaded.

"Huh?" Elise stopped shaking her and asked.

"I think, I'm going to puke.." Seo Hana said while covering her mouth with her hand.

"Anyway... Why did you back off?" Elise asked ignoring Hana's grunts.

"First, he 'is' scary.." Hana said emphasizing 'is.'

"Right, and?" Elise nodded in agreement and asked.

".... Few years ago..... He stopped dating me after saying that he finds me boring...." Seo Hana said leaving everybody who heard her dumbfounded.
