Chapter 256 Hero and Villain

"There is only one difference? Surely, you jest Even if you do the simplest comparison between the two, you can't possibly narrow it down to only one—"

"I said 'for me' It's more like the most basic difference," Rudy interjected

"Still…" Nyxia sighed after looking at Rudy and said, "Sure, go ahead and educate me, boy"

Rudy stayed silent for a while to increase the suspense Then, he looked into Nyxia's eyes and uttered, "A hero would sacrifice his loved ones to save the world, and a villain would sacrifice the world for his loved one"

"Oh I never considered that since this was about perspective If I sacrifice the world for my loved ones, I wouldn't consider myself a villain, to be honest"

"They say it's lucky to be a hero and that to be a hero is a blessed job I consider it a cursed job," Rudy uttered in a low voice "They say heroes are the chosen ones, but I say they are pitiable"

"Why, may I ask?"

"Just like everyone else, a hero also wants to be a coward and save his own skin Of course, unless the person voluntarily beca their own lives to save another I would do that, and I bet anyone else would too But it's also about someone who doesn't want to die"

"Hmm" Nyxia quietly listened to Rudy with a curious face

"Back then, when I didn't have any powers and was a hu around me But I couldn't dare to stop them I could if I wanted to, but I didn't Because I knew that I would be of any help even if I tried to help I was powerless Instead of helping, I would cause them more trouble But that was the mentality of a weak person like everyone else"

"Now that I have power, I will do my best to help others and punish the evildoers But aood deed could make one a hero, the world would be filled with them Besides, people nowadays care more about the reward than the act itself," Rudy scoffed with a sigh

"You wouldn't save the world?" Nyxia asked curiously

"I would save the world anytime But if I have to choose between my loved ones and the world, let the world be doomed However, if it's ladly sacrifice myself to the world Do note that the world also hasin it, so you can say I would do that for them, and the world is just an extra," Rudy asserted with a smile on his face

"Now, tell me What does that makesmile on his face

Nyxia's face flushed for the first time in centuries, and she broke eye contact with Rudy

"I don't kno am I supposed to know? I am neither a hero nor a villain," Nyxia responded

"Well, that wasn't the response I was expecting but okay" A Brief pause later, Rudy asked, "Hey, I have been curious about this superstition if it can be considered one Is it true that humans can becoranted eternal beauty to the hu a vampire"

"Yeah, it's true A human can become a vampire In fact, it was a common practice back then between the lovers," Nyxia nodded in response
