A Guide to Raising Villains [Quick Transmigration]

Righteous protagonists are all alike, but every evil antagonist has their own way of being despicable.

Some are treacherous, some jealous, some greedy. They are venomous snakes lurking in the shadows, darkness tucked away in corners the sun can't reach.

Of course, in a novel world fit to pass a website's content review, no matter how these people make their entrance, they usually meet a ruinous end amid utter chaos.

System 9521 was a newly appointed System, assigned to a novel world to improve the antagonist's storyline. But first, there had to be an antagonist.

The NPCs who were unfortunately dragged in to cultivate an antagonist: ...

To cultivate an antagonist, you have to be even more villainous than the antagonist!!

A fragile little white flower is growing at the foot of the wall. How will you stain him with mud, make him sprout poison and turn into a damp, disgusting man-eating flower, then watch him wither, rot, and be trampled by everyone?

Host (confident version): I get it. First this... then that...

9521 (breaking-down version): You're supposed to cultivate an antagonist, not fall in love! Stop, aaaaaah!

Urban: The conscientious CEO * The upright and composed assistant

System: The antagonist, Jiang Yisheng, is cruel and ruthless, with vicious methods. He will force the protagonist's mouth open and pour sulfuric acid down his throat, then deliberately run him over and leave him with crippled legs. After enduring countless hardships, the protagonist will finally defeat the antagonist and find his happy ending, while Jiang Yisheng will spend the rest of his life in prison with both legs broken.

The assistant glanced at the CEO, who had already been working overtime at his desk for three hours. After a long silence, he asked, "Want to go to a bar tonight? (And run into the protagonist?)"

The CEO shot him a glance. "Have you finished this quarter's reports?"

The assistant: ...

Western Fantasy: The pure and immaculate Saint * A church priest who moonlights as a demon king

System: The antagonist, Weiska, is a Saint of Light who turns his back on the light and throws himself into the arms of demons. He unleashes plague, division, war, and tears upon the world, spreading poison for a hundred years and letting hatred run rampant. He is the greatest stain on the history of the Holy Church of Light. In the end, he is stripped of his title as Saint and thrown into a purifying pool, where the holy water corrodes his flesh bit by bit until nothing remains.

The Saint's priest glanced at His Highness, who was praying for the people's safety. A wisp of black demonic energy quietly gathered in his palm, though his smile remained gentle. "Your Highness, your heart is not sincere."

The Saint bowed with a hand over his shoulder. When he looked up, his eyes were clear and pure. "Father, please teach me."

School + Online Dating: The school bully, who fights every day and is a few screws short * The sickly top student

For the sake of the antagonist's corruption score, the sickly top student uses his frail body to provoke the school bully every day, then goes home and badmouths him online. His dedication is through the roof!

The day the school bully discovers the real identity of his online sweetheart, he corners the top student in a narrow alley, and his corruption score hits the ceiling.

Cultivation: The earnest young disciple with a heart set on the light * The twisted master

The twisted master is a good young man at heart, raised on the five virtues and four graces. To raise the antagonist's corruption score, he exhausts every villainous trick he can remember from all the novels he's read. But his young disciple remains unmoved, still devoted to cultivation and full of admiration for his master. The twisted master finally goes completely off the rails, throws in the towel, and fakes his death. Then the young disciple becomes corrupted.

Palace: The devoted imperial tutor * The resentful young emperor

"Sir, am I just a tool for you to achieve your ambitions?"

Cultivation: The immortal master who cares for the world * The scheming demon-clan spy

"What's more important, the world or me?!" (Blinks)

Republican Era: The naive young master * The charlatan who deals in mystification

Palace: The young emperor * The regent who really does intend to seize power

Modern: A puppeteer * The puppet that holds his hopes

Premise: Keep working hard to hold on to your love for the world.
