I'm Not The Bad Guy

What if the villain and the hero switch roles? What if the villain was never bad? What if the hero went corrupt? What if the villain saved the world?

Kyle Hardy, aged 21, had been shunned & framed as a villain ever since his parents were killed by bandits when he was 12. His uncle abused him for years. Once he turned 15, his aunt sold him to a powerful mage. He was taught magic up until he was 18. Once he turned 18, the mage tried using him as a weapon. He finally snapped, killing both the dark mage guild and the enemies. Once he realised what he had done, he grew scared. He was scared of both himself and his powers. He went into hiding. When he was 20, he kidnapped the youngest prince, hoping to get money out of it. But his plan failed, he was banished and everyone in the Kingdom of Rejuna knew him as The Corrupt Mage, a villain.

A year later, the queen's brother, the prince, died. It sends her into a dark spiral of hatred and despair. She goes mad, sending the kingdom into chaos and cursing the land. Kyle sees the kingdom in despair and takes it upon himself to save Rejuna, help the Queen and clear his name.

"I'm Not The Bad Guy," Kyle shouted, "I'm just misunderstood. I can be a Hero too! Just wait and see."
