Over-confidence can get you killed or in Hecathe’s case, it can get you transmigrated into a parallel universe that is trying to kill you.

It all started with a simple, “Mom! I want to be a villain!”
 
Years later, Hecathe stood at the top of the economy with his Zuex company squeezing out every last penny from the pockets of the helpless consumers.  

One day he looked over at his secretary and confidently questioned, “When the country runs on your money, do you really think it matters if I’m driving legally or not?”

The heaven’s laughed as they heard this. To think that a mere human was this arrogant?! 

The heavens: “Let’s pull a UNO reverse card on him!” 

Hecathe’s eyes were glued to his phone as he heard the loud screeching of tires that made him look up and... 

Ha. Ha. Ha. 

The heavens probably had the last laugh... Or did they?
 
Hecathe remembered getting hit by a car but instead of waking up in a hospital, he woke up in a stinky jail with heavy chunks of metal chains wrapped around his whole body as if it were a straitjacket. 

An expensive custom-made straitjacket.

The Legendary Pseudo-villain

Hecathe's frown deepened as soon as he heard the girl and with his eyebrows creased together in worry, the man asked, "Why do you say that?"

The girl gulped as she kept her eyes on the man that was sitting away from them, "The mask that he is wearing... I remember seeing it before."

"From where?" Hecathe asked without missing a beat as he looked at the girl.

"A long time ago," LeiLei answered and her voice almost sounded soft and weak, as if she was not ready to believe her own thoughts, "I saw him when my parents died."

"..." Hecathe was silent as he heard this and he looked at Marvin with a bit of worry while Marvin also looked back to meet Hecathe's eyes.

"But isn't that a common mask?" Marvin gulped as he asked.

LeiLei shook her head as she explained sharply, "It's not exactly the mask that I recognize. It's the special mark on it... My father also had a mask just like that with the same golden mark."

I remember him!
