Chapter 1
17 years after the awakening of the tyrant Count Dracula
Having been trapped in the far wing security tower in her father's castle for all the seventeen years of her life, Princess Erinna's only form of entertainment was the stars she could see from her balcony window.
Her only knowledge was what she had found out in the rounded walls of her room in the tower, the only life experiences she knew being the ones in the sappy romance novels that her governess snuck in for her and the only people familiar to her being her father and her governess, Melissa.
It was only natural for her to wonder about the world beyond her tower. But as she stood at her balcony, something caught her attention.
"Is something wrong, Princess?" Melissa asked, brow creasing in concern.
"You remember when I told you about the dark cloud that formed just below the Southern Cross seventeen years ago?" Erinna asked Melissa, her eyes narrowed in concentration.
"The one you received in your visions?"
Ever since she had been born, Princess Erinna had been blessed with the gift of Precognition. The future as well as the past came to her in dreams and visions that even she could not interpret at times.
"Yes. Well, it has seventeen stars now, one has been added each year it seems. Only one is left to fully circle it."
Melissa could tell that there was something that her princess and charge was not telling her.
"Do you think that it has something to do with you?"
"It did appear when I was born. But what I don't understand is why it's completing with eighteen years. And no, I do not sense my death approaching, but I keep on seeing this face..."

Before Erinna could even begin explaining to Melissa her thoughts, the stars in the radial constellation glowed brighter and a bolt of lightning appeared, joining them together before striking down and hitting Erinna square on the head.
The face that had been the subject of her dreams was the last thing that she saw in her mind before being sucked into a vortex of nothing and ultimate darkness.

Btw, this story is heavily unedited and a rough draft. If you're looking for something you can nitpick details on, you might probably want to look elsewhere. Cheers🥂

Only Villains Do That
While waiting on an Akihabara train platform one day, ordinary high schooler Yoshi Shinonome was suddenly plucked from his normal life in Japan and whisked away by a beautiful goddess to Ephemera, a world of magic and adventure, to serve as her Hero and drive back the evil Dark Lord. This is not his story. Standing nearby at the moment Yoshi was isekai'd was a man named Seiji - a rude, cranky, misanthropic musician who was not at all pleased to find himself also snatched up and transported to Ephemera by the goddess's wicked sister, Virya. According to this self-proclaimed Goddess of Evil, the whole fantasy adventure thing was a game she and her sister played to stave off the boredom of immortality, and since the good goddess, Sanora, had picked her Hero...well, Virya needed a Dark Lord. A grown man with his own career and ambitions, Seiji has no interest in playing. Unfortunately for him, the call to adventure was not a request. Now, he must conquer Ephemera and defeat the Hero...or Virya promises to make him beg for the release of death before granting it. Playing along for his own survival, Seiji nonetheless is under no illusions who his true enemy is, and it's not the naive young would-be Hero from his own world. Placed in an impossible position, Seiji must make enough progress toward world domination to keep his sadistic patron goddess off his back, but not so much that he can't strike an accord with the forces of Good and convince the Hero Yoshi that it's the goddesses who are their mutual enemy. Forced to embrace Evil without being too evil, Seiji walks the razor's edge, building his forces and biding his time till he can get revenge on the goddesses and be free of them, his only certainty that he will not be getting out of this with his hands clean. A Dark Lord's gotta do what a Dark Lord's gotta do. Updates Tuesday and Friday. Most Patreon tiers get to read one chapter in advance of the public release!
