Trying To Survive as the Main Antagonist by: BK1235

Chapter one:

A man on the verge of death in a hospital bed was contemplating his thoughts before staring into the light. He looked around him to find himself alone in an empty hospital room. He was the CEO of a successful company. He was a genius in accounting and money management. He could speak almost every language. He was trained in self defense and Karate. He was also trained in Kendo.  How did this man end up where he was? He was hit by a truck on his way home from work. He was tired and could barely keep his eyes open. He had let his driver go to his family for an emergency. He couldn't drive due to how tired he was. 

"If only I had slept at the office, would I be okay? Maybe it's for the best, that I will die. I was alone in this world anyway," he thought. 

He continued thinking about his life choices and the people who disliked him. Even though he was a CEO, many people disliked him. His eyes began to shut as the heart monitor slowly stopped beating. 

"This is the end for me, and I don't think I'm going to last much longer. At least before I died, I got to read good web novels and watch anime," he thought. 

The heart monitor flatlined. Doctors and nurses began pouring into the room, trying to bring the dead man back to life. 

"Clear," they said before using the heart defibrillator.

"It's not working," a nurse shouted. 

"Get some oxygen for the man stat," a doctor shouted. 

Someone brought an oxygen mask and tried pumping his breaths. 

"It's too late sir, his lungs collapsed," a nurse shouted. 

The heart monitor continued beeping as the doctors lost hope. The man's pale face looked at peace.

"Patient:***** *****, age: 28, time of death: 10:58 pm," one of the doctors in the room said as he looked at his watch. 

"Does the patient have any family," a nurse asked.

"He has a brother but he's too busy to visit, apparently. We'll call and let him know of his death."

"To think that no one was here for this young man before he died, it's so sad," a nurse said. 

*Warning ⚠️ implications of child abuse ahead*

After it faded to black for the man, he woke up in a new body. It was smaller than his 28-year-old body. He was in a different world, but he had no idea. He was wearing rags, and he had long white hair. He felt pain in his face and body. He had woken up in a puddle, and the memories of this child he inhabited came to him. The adult owners of the orphanage were nobles. They beat him for being different due to his red eyes and white hair. He sighed. 

"So another body that is hated by everyone, where am I? This is something other than Japan. It's completely different."

"Wait a second, white hair and red eyes. Is this me, but I died? These bruises on this his face, his long white unkempt hair. If this is, who is it? No way am I the main villain of the web novel I read," he thought as he looked into the puddle.

He stood up. He looked around. He was next to the orphanage. His clothes were soaked. He remembers reading this part in the book. His cheeks were swollen, and his right eye was swollen as well. His hair was unkept, and his left arm was in a lot of pain.

"So my new name is Mikail. The owners of the orphanage are Baron Herald Raqueres and Baroness Noria Raqueres. My hair and eyes are a nuisance to them. I was beaten for looking in their direction. Mikail had asked for a bath, and they threw him into a puddle cracking his head on the concrete. Mikail soon became enraged and vowed to take revenge on everyone in the orphanage. I won't because I know the ending of the book. He's killed by his adopted father, Duke Noril Gruz, after admitting to poisoning both of Noril's sons. The adoption happens today, though," he thought.
