When My Archenemy Took on a Lovestruck Persona

Synopsis

To become a proper supervillain, you need more than a fearsome reputation. You also need a worthy nemesis.

Then you defeat him.

Xiao Jingyu has the reputation, and he has the nemesis, too.

Unfortunately, Xiao Jingyu is always just a little unlucky when it comes to defeating his nemesis. But that's fine. Third time's the charm, and there's no way he'll let the other guy keep gloating now that he's been reborn.

But after thinking it over, killing a nemesis who hasn't even grown up yet sounds awfully boring. So he figures he'll take advantage of the kid's youth and naivety, and bring him over to his side first.

Xiao Jingyu carefully works out his little scheme: Since the future savior has fallen into his hands, he can't wait to see him turn into a complete villain.

And as a bonus, he can use him to threaten the people who oppose him under the banner of the savior.

He decides this deal is absolutely worth it.

#You don't want me to accidentally kill him, do you?#

#A free get-out-of-jail card *1#

He always thought they were on the revenge route of A Reborn Villain's Guide to Ruling the World. But who could've guessed his nemesis, Xie Luwang, was following some cheesy romance plot like My Crush Is My Desk Mate?

While he was out there conquering the world and cutting down enemies one by one, Xie Luwang had already finished convincing himself he was in love, and was even planning to make a move on him.

He genuinely thought something might be wrong with Xie Luwang's brain.

Thanks for asking, but no thanks.

#Men only slow down my punches#

#Don't make me ruin your fun#

■ Revised content is being uploaded in place of the old version.

■ Includes Lovecraftian elements and lots of original worldbuilding. The protagonist takes center stage. All side couples with romance are heterosexual. Please avoid if that's not your thing.

The gong and shou are each other's one and only. Both are adults when they become a couple. The gong is not reborn and does not inherit memories from other timelines (lol).

None of the characters, including the protagonist, are perfect! This is not a wish-fulfillment novel!!!!!

Nothing in this story is related to real life, so please don't read it as such. The author is deep in their edgy phase and isn't looking for advice.

Theme: Across countless lifetimes, love has no end.
