World Traveler Villain-Chapter 195: CH: 193 Population Increase

{Chapter: 193 Population Increase}

The Villain Space.

A shimmering circle of radiant light formed in the air, and in a brilliant flash, eight figures materialized one by one. William stood at the center, surrounded by Alice, Jill, Claire, Ada, Terry, Kmart, the White Queen, Becky.

To William, population growth was a cause for celebration. In his eyes, more people meant more life, more vibrance, and less of the unbearable solitude that came with vast empty spaces. Of course, in keeping with his personal code, William only brought women into his world—not men.

"Where are we? What is this place?" Alice asked, her eyes wide with curiosity as she scanned the breathtaking surroundings.

"Dad, this place is so pretty! Look at all the grass!" Becky chimed in with innocent excitement. Beneath their feet stretched a lush, green meadow that seemed to go on forever. Clear ponds were scattered across the land like scattered mirrors, reflecting the sky's endless blue. A gentle breeze whispered through the air, bringing with it the scent of fresh earth and wildflowers.

With open arms and a broad smile, William declared, "This is my world now. Welcome... to the Villain Space."

"Villain Space?" Jill arched a brow, clearly unimpressed. "That's such a terrible name."

"Don't sweat the small stuff," William said casually, spreading his hands in amusement. "The name's not important."

The White Queen tilted her head, her eyes glowing faintly with digital light as she scanned the area. "This... is a constructed space. Approximately ten thousand square kilometers in size. Beyond that, it appears to dissolve into a sort of visual distortion—a blurred, undefined boundary."

"William, what the hell is going on?" Ada demanded, stepping forward with a sharp edge in her voice.

Before William could answer, a distant sound caught everyone's attention. The low roar of a powerful engine echoed across the vast field.

A sleek, emerald green supercar tore across the grass and came to a perfect stop just a few feet away. The gull-wing doors opened smoothly, and three stunning women stepped out in unison. They were radiant, confident, and unmistakably familiar to William.

But before anyone could say a word, the car behind them began to twist and shift. Plates of metal slid, gears spun, and the entire vehicle transformed—reshaping itself rapidly into a humanoid steel giant.

"Boss, you're finally back," the mechanical voice rang out from the robot. Its glowing eyes locked on William before shifting to the women beside him. "And this time, you didn't come back alone. You brought a whole harem."

The three women—Peggy, Su Yueming, and Tessa—walked up to William with a mix of relief, frustration, and sarcasm in their eyes.

"It's been ages," Peggy said, folding her arms. "You really kept us waiting."

Tessa added with a smirk, "Looks like your wish finally came true. So many women—our population just got a serious upgrade."

Alice, Jill, Claire, and the others stared in stunned silence. The transformation, the new arrivals, the talking robot—none of it made any sense. Not yet.

Ada stepped forward cautiously, her eyes narrowing as she examined Su Yueming more closely. Her breath caught in her throat. "You... You look exactly like me."

"She really does," Tessa noted, circling the two women with intrigue. "Same face, same build—just different style. It's uncanny."

Su Yueming regarded Ada with a slight frown. "My name is Su Yueming."

"Su Yueming..." Ada turned to glance at William, her expression tightening with suspicion and realization. "You mentioned her before. I thought you were messing with me."

"Well," William shrugged with a smirk, "now you see it for yourself. I wasn't lying."

Still baffled, Jill turned to William. "Okay, seriously. What is this place? What's going on?"

"Allow us to explain," Peggy offered with a gentle smile, stepping forward and gesturing for the new arrivals to come closer.

Alice, Ada, and Jill followed her instinctively, drawn by her calm presence and confidence.

"You clearly know something we don't," Claire said, eyes flickering between the robot and the three women. "Start talking."

Peggy nodded. "What I'm about to say might sound impossible. But we need you to keep an open mind."

Jill crossed her arms. "We've all seen some pretty unbelievable stuff. Go ahead. We're listening."

Peggy took a deep breath and began. "The world you're standing in now is what we call the Villain Space. It's not part of any known country, dimension, or planet. It was created—constructed from raw will and digital infrastructure. And the one who created for..."

She paused and looked toward William.

"...is him."

---

More than ten minutes had passed since the new arrivals were introduced to the Villain Space. How it works, who William is and more.

A heavy silence lingered after the initial introductions, broken only by the occasional rustle of wind through the tall grass.

"Although I'm not exactly sure which movie world each of you came from," Peggy began, her voice carrying over the quiet field, "the fact remains—you're all characters from movies. Every single one of us is. The three of us—myself, Su Yueming, and Tessa—we're no different. We were pulled into this place too... brought here by that guy." She jabbed a thumb toward William.

Tessa stepped forward with a warm smile. Her demeanor was both confident and inviting. "I'm Tessa. Su and I are from the Transformers universe. Giant alien robots, world-ending battles, cities getting destroyed in seconds... It's a wild ride," she chuckled. "If you're curious, I'll gladly tell you more about our world."

The women exchanged glances. The absurdity of it all hadn't quite settled in yet, but they were beginning to understand that this strange new place connected their very different realities.

...

Not far away, William had sprawled out lazily on the soft grass, arms tucked behind his head as he gazed up at the sky. Beside him stood Crosshairs, the green-and-black Autobot sniper, arms crossed in impatience.

"Crosshairs," William asked casually, "how long has it been since I was gone?"

"Boss, about two months," Crosshairs replied, his robotic tone tinged with boredom. "This place has everything—peace, beauty, even sunlight—but it's a prison without action. I'm bored out of my mind. I sleep half the day just to pass the time."

William smirked without opening his eyes. "You want to go out with me next time?"

"Hell yes," Crosshairs said, his optics flashing slightly. "Let me drive. Give me a mission, anything. Just get me out of here."

At that moment, little Becky came skipping across the field and threw herself next to William, her bright eyes gleaming with curiosity.

"Dad," she asked in a serious tone, "am I... am I a movie character too?"

Crosshairs' head jerked slightly. "Dad? Wait a second, Boss... you had a kid while you were away?!"

"Of course he did," Peggy said dryly, walking up with arms folded and an exaggerated sigh. "He disappears for months, and when he returns, it's with a whole parade of women—and a daughter."

William laughed awkwardly, sitting up as he scratched his head. "Peggy, come on... Did you miss me, at least?"

Peggy gave him a long, hard look. "Did I miss you? You were off gallivanting across dimensions, and we were stuck here. Days passed, weeks turned into months. We didn't know if you were even alive!"

Su Yueming joined her, eyes narrowed in frustration. "You have no idea how worried we were. You left without warning and never contacted us. What were we supposed to think?"

Tessa's voice was gentler, though still laced with reproach. "I won't defend him," she said, stepping forward. "You were gone too long, William. You don't realize how badly you scared us. We thought you might never return..."

Before she could continue, William stood up and pulled her into a firm hug. "I know. I know I messed up. But I'm here now, safe and sound."

Tessa didn't push him away, but she huffed against his chest. "Hmph. You probably had a great time while we were stuck waiting for you."

Before William could respond, Becky puffed up her cheeks and waved her arms. "Dad didn't have fun! He was in a coma! For two whole years! He only just woke up before bringing us here."

A stunned silence fell over the group.

Peggy's and Su Yueming's expressions changed in an instant, turning from annoyance to concern.

"In a coma?" Su Yueming's voice softened. "What happened?"

William offered a sheepish smile and spread his hands. "Nothing serious... just a really long nap."

"William, this isn't the time for jokes," Peggy said, eyes narrowed. "We deserve the truth."

She turned to Alice, who had been standing quietly nearby. "You were with him, weren't you? What really happened? Tell us everything."

Alice gave a solemn nod. "You've shared your story. It's only fair that we share ours."

Su Yueming crossed her arms and nodded thoughtfully. "I'm listening. Go ahead."

"Our world," Alice began slowly, her tone heavy, "is much darker than yours. It's a place of death, chaos, and suffering. We don't have giant robots. We have something worse. It all began in a secret underground facility called... the Umbrella Corporation."

Her voice drifted as her memories took over. The others leaned in, drawn by the quiet gravity of her words.

"From the moment the infection leaked, everything changed. We fought for survival every single day. Friends died. Cities fell. And no matter how many times we thought it was over... it wasn't."

As the sun dipped lower across the Villain Space horizon, the women sat in a rough circle on the grass, listening intently to Alice's tale—a story of tragedy, resilience, and a world overrun by monsters.

And so, in this strange and boundless realm, where realities had been stitched together, the stories began to intertwine.
