Should I Become a Villain?

Geovanni took a deep breath when he saw Maido's behavior. He did not want an apology; he wanted an explanation. It seemed that he would gain nothing since Maido apologized to him.

Without even having to ask, Geovanni knew that there was no valid explanation for the incident in Australia. Even if he tortured Maido, he still would get nothing.

Therefore, the old man chose not to talk about the incident in Australia. He gestured for one of the men in black to hand over his tablet. After getting the tablet, he immediately showed the screen to Maido.

"You can stand now," told Geovanni and Maido immediately obeyed him. Then he showed his tablet screen, which displayed a map. "This is one of the cities in Germany. I have received news that a gate appears there. The head of the council asked you to predict when the explosion will happen."

Maido could not help but gasp in shock when he found out this news. With a trembling body and voice, he asked, "S-should I predict the explosion of the gate today?"

"I thought it was a strange question. Predicting the gate explosion is your primary duty."

The calm that Geovanni had gathered slowly disappeared as soon as he realized something. He immediately stood up and approached Maido, who did not dare to raise his head.

"Did you use your power without my permission?" Geovanni asked in an icy voice, causing the atmosphere in the room to become scary as well.

"I-I have a reason. I had to use my powers to deal with an urgent issue." Maido's voice was filled with fear. He continued because Geovanni did not give any reaction, "I used my power to predict the movement of the evil circle."

It was a reason that could not be accepted by Geovanni. He grabbed the glass teapot on the table and then slammed it right into Maido's head. "Have you lost your mind? How can you do such a reckless thing?" he snapped.

"I-I'm sorry. I acted recklessly because I assumed that an evil circle caused the chaos in Australia," Maido replied, staring at the broken teapot on the floor mixed with his blood.

"What can you do using your powers? You can only predict the future, not knowing what happened in the past. You shouldn't act without my permission."

"I apologize."

Geovanni burned with anger because Maido could only apologize. Before coming here, the IRO told him about they would forgive Maido as long as the man predicted the gate explosion in German correctly.

Even the IRO also claimed to be looking into the actual cause of the chaos in Australia. They were empathetic by not putting pressure on Maido. This allowed Geovanni to heave a sigh of relief, believing that the problem would be solved if Maido did what the IRO wanted.

However, Maido instead acted unexpectedly. At this rate, Geovanni did not dare to report to the Dungeons and Gates Security Council. They would not only punish Maido but also him, who was actually blameless.

"You must go to the head of the DGS council and explain the situation. If they touch me because of your fault, then I will do the same thing to you. I will touch your innocent brothers."

All the blood in Maido's body was boiling with anger after hearing Geovanni's threat. He hated himself for not daring to fight back the old man. His younger brothers would be dragged along if he got into a conflict with Geovanni.

"I understand. Please forgive me, Sir. I promise to solve this problem without troubling you," Maido spoke as he clenched his fists. He swore in his heart that he would become stronger so that nothing could touch him or his brothers.

Meanwhile, Geovanni smiled with satisfaction when he saw Maido react as he expected. He said nothing and left at once with his people.
