I Became a Fanboy of the Villain

Bai Zhi secretly wiped his eyes, reached out, and hugged Gesius tightly: “Yes.”

“I’m not worried whether I can safely get out.” Bai Zhi said: “I want to protect you more, just like…how you protect me.”

Although the words of the person in front were spoken lightly, they didn’t affect the burning affection within at all. Gesius’s gaze trembled, he held Bai Zhi even tighter. In a voice that didn’t show emotion:

“You’re not scared? It’s possible that…we can’t get out.”

Bai Zhi shook his head: “With you, I’m not scared of anything.”

Only after a very long time did the voice of the other person sound:

“I understand.”

The signs of the witch’s arrival were obvious. Gesius looked at the sudden change in atmosphere. With an icy expression, he tightly gripped the weapon in his hand. 

A silver-haired person appeared in front of him. Looking at this particularly vigilant duo, the forest witch’s eyes flashed with uncertainty:

“Knight-xiansheng and I set down an agreement earlier, saying that as long as this evil dragon leaves the forest safely, he would voluntarily stay behind as my test subject. Hm? Are you planning to go back on your word today?”

The witch’s questioning voice sounded. Bai Zhi’s heart tightened, and immediately pulled the Gesius beside him closer. Gesius understood his fearful mood in an instant, he smiled lightly and squeezed back Bai Zhi’s hand.

“Placing the life of a loved one in someone else’s hands was the greatest mistake I have ever made.” Gesius said word for word, full of determination:

“The person I love, naturally should be protected by me until the end.”

Hearing this the silver-haired witch’s expression changed imperceptibly. Only after a long time did she slowly speak: “Love?”

“That is just the most hypocritical useless thing in this world…only the most ignorant kinds of people would fall into this trap, seek death, and crave life because of it, doing all sorts of laughable things.”

The witch’s exquisite face was full of disdain, and her beautiful eyes were also colored with mockery:

“Who could’ve thought that the noble knight and a powerful evil dragon would also believe this type of hypocritical elusive thing.”

Despite hearing the disgust in the witch’s words, Gesius couldn’t be bothered with talking anymore. He directly drew his sword, his gaze tightly locked onto the silver-haired silhouette in front.

“Whether our love is worth mentioning is none of your business.” Gesius’s expression lacked any shred of fear, and his voice carried great determination:

“Because today, I definitely won’t lose to you.”

As soon as he spoke, while the witch’s face was still full of astonishment, Gesius made his move.

Bai Zhi wasn’t even able to react before he saw Gesius become the afterimage of a swan goose, followed by the slash of a silver blade, and a flash of light.

That person wielded the sword with his right hand and attacked once again. He would never retreat a single step, as if the entire world he cared about was behind him, making him loathe to retreat even slightly.

The witch who was robbed of the first move was forced back step by step. In a hard-won moment of rest, she lifted her hand to prepare to cast a spell, yet Gesius’s gaze was like lightning, his sword pierced her right arm and he slashed down fiercely.

The witch’s painful cries sounded from within this patch of forest.

Bai Zhi had been watching in a daze. Hearing this sound he couldn’t help worrying. He stood in the back eager to try and help, but the system’s voice suddenly sounded:

“Don’t go.”

Bai Zhi instantly stopped: “Why?”

“No need.” The system looked at the combat information updated in real-time in front, pondered for a long time, and furrowed its brows:

“There is something not quite right…in this contest, Gesius has the absolute advantage.”

Bai Zhi was shocked: “Wasn’t this witch extremely powerful?”

“The writing material said this, but it’s very strange.” The system extended its hand, and swiftly checked the acquired information again. Only after a long time did it nod:

“Against Gesius, this witch has no chance of winning.”

“This kind of strange thing has happened before too.” The system flipped open a large stack of archived material, and pointed out to Bai Zhi page by page:

“Do you still remember Wen Zhuzhi? That imperial admiral?”

Bai Zhi instantly replied: “Of course I remember.”

“That time, there was also a very unusual situation like this, it was the time where I was unplugged. To save Wen Zhuzhi you entered a coma, and according to the system’s calculations, the Wen Zhuzhi at that time definitely couldn’t have survived escaping the Zerg.”

“But in the end not only did he escape, he even perfectly protected the unconscious you of that time.” The system finally flipped to a blank sheet of paper, and continued to say: “After that, I checked the real-time combat information of that battle, and the results displayed that Gesius had the overwhelming advantage.”

“But that’s not possible.” The system said word for word: “It completely goes against reason.”

Bai Zhi was already dumbfounded, he stood where he was in a daze, and only after a very long time did he react. He even became smart for once, and grasped the crux of the topic.

“That time, if Wen Zhuzhi had lost, I would have died.”

His eyes moved slightly, and he slowly said.

“This time, if Gesius loses, I will also die.”
