Praise Makes Even the Villain Become Obsessed

Warning: This work contains graphic descriptions and elements of violence, including serious crimes. Please take this into account before reading.

I possessed the body of a villain in a 19-rated romance fantasy novel. Specifically, I became the psychopathic second male lead who, driven by a thirst for slaughter, massacres the heroine’s entire family.

According to the system, I can only return to the real world if I clear every quest. But what kind of quest is “Give a Compliment”?

What on earth is this?

I had no choice but to follow the instructions. One by one, I trapped the system’s designated targets in a prison of praise. However, at some point, the system began to focus on only one person.

[ Quest ]

Give Iser Hayut a compliment!

“No, why is it this guy again…?”

I looked toward the center of the ballroom in utter despair. There stood Iser Hayut. His face shone more brilliantly than the chandeliers, and he commanded every eye in the room.

He danced with the heroine, his expression bored, until his gaze suddenly met mine. He held me captive with his eyes as his lips slowly moved. Even from across the hall, I could read his mouth.

Me again?

My brow furrowed instinctively. A sly, seductive smile bloomed across his sculpted face.

“Ha…”

He was as cute as a kitten when he was young. How did he grow up to be so cunning? I felt as though I had raised a monster in disguise.
