My name is Johnson Joffrey. About four or five months ago, I arrived in the JOJO World. Then I acquired a system, like those in many novels. I thought I might be the protagonist, and I lived a peaceful yet mischievous life.
The purpose of my mischief was to complete the tasks given by my villain system, in exchange for a wish to return home.
Because I knew that there, at home, were my parents who worked tirelessly to send me to university. I missed my mother's white hair, I missed my father's teachings. My sudden disappearance must have caused them great distress.
My mother's health isn't good; she'll probably have to go to the hospital this time. And my younger sister is still in university. To ensure she has a good life, my father's meager retirement pension is definitely not enough. She would surely have to work part-time, and that wouldn't do. How could she focus on her postgraduate exams then?
With these thoughts, I lived several months as an ordinary high school student, which made me very sad. Especially since my classmates mostly distanced themselves, I was powerless, had no Stand, and couldn't accomplish the so-called tasks. The situation was so bad that it reached a point of despair.
Until one day, my mother from this world, after I transmigrated, returned from the hospital and showered me with affection and longing.
It turned out I was also Dio's son, but this mother clearly had mental problems, doting on me to the point of surveillance every day.
That was fine, because she was soon sent back to a mental hospital.
My life took a turn. I met Kujo Jotaro. After meeting him, my peaceful life finally had some excitement. I spent about a few days throwing Italy into chaos. Although I always encountered difficulties and daily setbacks became commonplace for me, in the end, I always escaped danger.
I fought my way through many challenges and finally arrived here.
I knew I had to get the arrow. I could persuade Polnareff to give me the arrow, but completely unexpectedly, Diavolo arrived. This prevented me from gaining his trust quickly and made him even more wary.
I faced the first boss of my life. The arrow I yearned for, the Reversed Hierophant Requiem I yearned for, both fell into the sea, and I was punched through the stomach by Diavolo.
But everyone, don't worry. Although it was quite painful, I'm not dead yet, and my consciousness is very clear.
So clear that my fingertip is still connected to my brother's lifeline.
At Johnson Joffrey's heart, the Reversed Hierophant's hand firmly grasped a Reversed Hierophant thread. This thread was connected to the Stand. If the Stand disappeared, the thread would also disappear, but it was indeed firmly held in his hand.
Because only Reversed Hierophant can cut the lines, Giorno must have realized it by now.
"Good thing I was prepared," Johnson Joffrey sighed silently in his heart, having obtained a Reversed Hierophant line from Giorno's hand. "Since I've started absorbing his life energy, it proves they should know I'm in danger and will likely rush over as soon as possible."
"I'm just playing dead right now."
Johnson Joffrey quietly pressed his ear to the floor; Reversed Hierophant's senses were much sharper than his own. Through its ears, Johnson Joffrey carefully determined the position.
Diavolo was very happy now. Although the arrow had fallen into the sea, it wasn't necessarily unobtainable. Johnson Joffrey made a simple calculation based on the arrow's quality, Olbia's recent ocean currents, and wind direction.
It shouldn't leave this sea area, but the most urgent task now is to kill Diavolo.
This is a great opportunity.
His Epitaph, like my Reversed Hierophant - Unlimited Territory, is not a passively activated ability but one that tests one's reaction time.
Johnson Joffrey felt the life energy coming from Giorno. It seemed Giorno had already discovered him and began actively outputting energy to Johnson. Johnson's body was now almost fully recovered.
"Have confidence in yourself, Johnson Joffrey!" he told himself. "Diavolo thinking I'm dead is a golden opportunity."
Johnson Joffrey carefully judged the position. The best way to deal with Diavolo was assassination, especially now that he already thought Johnson was dead.
"I am Emperor Diavolo!" Diavolo said expressionlessly to Polnareff. "Although I didn't get the arrow, it should still be in this sea area. I have a subordinate who can easily find it."
Diavolo walked from where he had been hiding to Polnareff, gently shaking off the blood from his right arm.
"I'm going to kill you now…"
Three more steps. As soon as he walks in front of Polnareff and enters Reversed Hierophant's range, I win.
Diavolo looked at Polnareff and began to walk forward.
First step.
"I've already made my resolve." Polnareff looked at the endless sea. He had been prepared long ago. At that time, he didn't have time to destroy the arrow, so in a hurry, he threw it into the sea. Johnson, in order to prevent Diavolo from getting the arrow, had no choice but to attack his main body first, but was ultimately impaled through the abdomen.
Second step.
Reversed Hierophant quietly emerged from Johnson's body.
Ready to charge forward, this position and distance allowed it to strike Diavolo in an instant. As long as it pulled out its line, he would... Third... "Beep beep beep..."
A sudden, abrupt sound appeared. A sharp glint flashed in Diavolo's eyes. He quickly retreated more than ten steps, instantly looking towards Johnson Joffrey's position.
"Who the hell is calling me?!" Johnson roared internally.
Diavolo looked at the phone lying nearby, frowning.
Is Johnson Joffrey really dead?
Polnareff also looked at Johnson Joffrey's body in surprise.
The phone was next to Johnson Joffrey's 'corpse.' Should I pick it up? What would I do with it? Diavolo shook his head internally.
That phone call just now really scared him. Retreating dozens of steps was very much his style.
I was actually startled by a phone call… "Beep beep beep…"
The phone was still ringing. Diavolo saw the phone next to him, suddenly pulled out a gun, and aimed it at the phone that had been tossed out next to Johnson Joffrey.
I killed Polnareff, but he came back to life. I killed Illuso, and he came back to life… "Beep beep beep…"
He frowned slightly, and his green and yellow interwoven double pupils shifted in his eye sockets—
I roughly understand why… Although I killed Johnson Joffrey, I'm still a little worried. This guy has even seen Heaven's Whisper, and he's DIO's son; his identity and power are very suspicious. Reversed Hierophant is also very strong… As long as you exist… I cannot be at peace!
"Click—"
He opened the gun, saw there were still several bullets inside, and then aimed the scope at Johnson Joffrey's head.
