The villainess shall be mine

Chapter 54 Unexpected Turn Of Events (Part 3)

:::[Third person POV]:::

"-t, Miss..."

Adam couldn't finish his sentence because his eyes witnessed something extremely alarming.

A hand appeared from inside of a black portal. Then, little by little the silhouette of what seemed to be a human emerged from it.

The sound of unpleasant and heavy breathing reached Adam's ears. "Fuuuu! Fuuuuuu!"

Adam reacted as fast as he could.

His eyes widened and he shouted something that he never thought he would say so soon. "Liuuuuuu!" He called Liu's name in a very desperate manner, without any honorific.

That was how dire the situation in front of him appeared to be.

Before Adam could do anything Liu was attracted by an invisible force and then black metallic chains wrapped around her body.

She tried to struggle but it was of no use, the individuals who appeared behind her were not normal.

Adam activated his sword and kicked the ground, then he projected himself forward as fast he could, but...

Thick blocks of metal, as big as a truck, emerged from the ground and darted towards him.

Crash!

Even after Adam activated his power, he couldn't dodge in mid-air, so he was sent flying and crashed into the house along with the block of metals.

Boom!

The two individuals were not there to play; they were there for a specific purpose.

One of them was tall and the other one was shorter than the former but had a huge body. The two of them wore helmets and full body armor that looked like a spacesuit but with a dark cloak attached to it.

Their appearance was more of a dark knight than an astronaut, and the ominous aura surrounding their ragged full black outfit spoke for itself.

The tall man grabbed Liu's head as she tried to use her power, and as if he was doing something to her, Liu's eyes turned white and she was about to lose consciousness.

For some reason, her power was gathered around her head, or more precisely around the individual's hand, and formed an unnatural sphere of ice. It was as if the ice particles were being attracted by some kind of force to this precise location.

Liu couldn't control her power because of what the individual was doing to her.

She held Verte tightly in her arms and in a desperate attempt she create a thick sphere of ice around her whole body before passing out.

It all happened too fast, without whatsoever warning.

"Bastard!!!"

Adam emerged from the rumbles and rose in the sky, then dashed down to the individuals.

Swoosh!

? He was wearing the final form of Cristal. A full-body suit that was directly connected to his body and linked to his mind using a neuronal link.

This was one of his trump cards and even though it was hidden under his clothes, part of the suit could be seen covering both his hand and his neck.

Crash!

Again, Adam's charge was met by a thick and metallic black wall.

"Fuc*"

Adam was not the kind of person who used swear words often, but this time, he couldn't help it.

He was still far from Liu and his power of nullification couldn't reach the portal.

The black wall was too thick for his sword to cut through.

The tall individual didn't care about Adam.

He raised his hand and the sphere of ice where Liu confined herself lifted from the ground and approached him, then he entered the portal from where he came from.

"Everything else doesn't matter." He said to the huge man.

The huge man nodded as if understood the other one's word.

After the tall man left, the portal closed.

"What are you doing, bastard?!!" Adam shouted.

He circled the wall and appeared from behind.

However, he was one step too late and he could only see the portal closing.

But, the huge man was now within the range of his power.

Adam activated his power without any delay.

The huge man couldn't move and before he knew what was happening, Adam's fist struck his helmet and made its way to his face.

He looked like he didn't expect it.

Crack!

His helmet fell apart and the impact sent him flying backward before crashing into a tree root.

Crash!

Adam didn't give him the time to recover.

As soon as his punch landed successfully and the man slammed down on the ground, he leaped forward...

Swoosh!

And with this momentum, he stomped on the man's chest with all of his might using his leg.

His suit played an important role as it also absorbed impacts and reversed the force.

Boom!

With his strength multiplied, Adam packed more power than usual, and the huge man couldn't use his power to protect himself.

Cough! The man felt the impact on his chest and coughed a mouthful of blood.

Using his foot to put pressure on the huge man who couldn't move, Adam leaned forward and looked at the man's face.

"Tell me, where is she?!"

Adam looked at the man and spoke to him with a threatening tone.

However, the man whose face was ugly and full of black tumors just smiled.

As soon as he did, Adam felt like there was something more to all this.

That was when he looked around him, and he realized that the city was already engulfed in chaos.

"What just happened, where is miss Liu!?"

Timothy who had a panicked look on his face finally appeared on the scene along with the others.

Most of them were struck by the block of metals that hit the house, and when they came out, they saw Adam fighting someone.

Adam looked frustrated. "Tch... It's too late, they got her."

"What?!" Everyone else said, almost at the same time.

Liu was undoubtedly the strongest among all of them, so this must something serious.

"And who is this guy?" Timothy asked.

"He came here with the one who took Liu. He is of no use, I will dispose of him." Adam was different from his usual self, he was determined to find Liu.

Adam activated his sword and was about to nail it down on the man's head.

'Why did they target Liu in particular?' He thought.

"Wait, what are doing? We need to question him!!" Yelena shouted.

"I can't hold him back for too long, and I want to avoid more problems later."

Thud!

Adam didn't stop.

"You!!!"

Yelena shouted but Adam turned around and looked at her with a threatening look on his face. He was angry.

"Do you think that I take this for a joke? He is not someone you can beat with your current level!"

Yelena's pride was hurt by Adam's words. "Who are you to decide about that?!"

"It's not the time to argue about that, we must find Liu!" Adam answered.

Yelena wanted to say something but Adam already moved on.

He learned his lesson the first time, and even when he was careful, something unexpected still took place and he wasn't prepared as he thought he was.

'Sh*t! Sh*t...'

He floated up in the air to take a better look at the situation.

Cristal was made of Stellarium and Gravitum so her ability to fly was still active even when she disintegrated into millions of nanotubes and turned into something like a suit.

Adam's face turned grim when he saw what was happening. 'This is bad... What's going on?'

The city was swallowed by a sea of flame and violence while cries and screams echoed throughout the whole area.

The residents who were gift holders clashed against the monsters and even though there were strong individuals, the monsters were just too numerous.

'I hope they can hold up against these monsters... My priority now is to find Liu and Verte.' Adam thought.

"Cristal, we are going to test that theory..."

"Yes, master."

After that, he reported what happened to Liu and also about the situation in the city to the others.

Adam asked them to not go to the city and prioritize Liu's rescue. Everyone agreed and hide inside the house for the time being.

"I have a plan, and it is extremely reckless, but if we want to find Liu and bring her back, we need to take the risk," Adam announced.

"What do you propose?" Timothy asked.

*****

At the same time the two individuals appeared, something extremely dreadful happened all around the continent of Nakahafa.

"What is that?!!!"

Everyone looked up to the sky and what they saw there send chills down to their spines.

"Mama!!" Kids began crying.

"Let's go back inside!!" Adults grabbed their kids and hurried home.

"This is the end. Hahaha." Others felt like something inside of their minds snapped and they lost sense of reality.

All of that was because...

"Is that an eyeball?"

No one knew when or how, but before they knew it, a huge eyeball was staring down at them.

And soon after this realization.

"Monsters!"

A horde of monsters emerged out of portals that appeared out of nowhere.

They invaded cities and destroyed everything that they saw.

The same thing happened inside of the city Mistolteone where Adam and the others stayed.

However, because of trees, they couldn't see the eyeball who was looking at something, or precisely, attracted by something.
