While living a relatively normal life after escaping from the institute, the heroine of the novel moved in next door. From the looks of it, I might be the heroine’s neighbor extra. Originally, the heroine was to save the unconscious and fatally wounded villain and in return, be subject to a fanatical obsession.

The sub-villain, Lakis Avalon, was the king of the underworld and the very same frightening man that I had met at the institute before.

I took a moment’s glance around then I kicked the man’s body away.

You’ve got the wrong house, Villain.
