Villain of my own novel

Chapter 290 289. How To Use The Abilities, Properly.

"Pause." The being mumbled, and everything stopped.

"System, erase all existences' memories of the past few seconds since my arrival." The being commanded the system.

[Initiating...]

[Initiated task completed.] The system responded.

"Good. Erase all data of my arrival from your memory after I leave this place." He commanded again.

[Initiating...]

[Timed task initiated.] The system responded again.

"This will be the last time I'll help; from the next time, I'll take things into my own hands." The being mumbled while gazing at the dead Eshwar's figure, coldly.

The being raised his hand and brought his middle and thumb fingers close, as if to snap his fingers, but as soon as both of his fingers connected, it began to emit a blinding light. The light was so bright that it seemed like looking at a star up close.

A prism-shaped, thick concentration of pure energy manifested between his fingers; it was so small that it seemed like a dust grain. The being pressed the prism-shaped grain in between his fingers as if to crush it.

SNAP

With a snap of his fingers, the grain turned into a million new shinning, stardust-like crumbs and scattered along with the massive, golden, black-coloured ripple that shot out from the snap of the being's fingers, and as if complying with the being's command, everything in existence moved in reverse for a few seconds and halted when the demoness stood, floating in front of Eshwar, who was cornered.

"Stupid son of a bit*h, you will die regardless." The being mumbled while gazing at Eshwar's pathetic state, but the being abruptly froze when a crazy thought cruised through his mind.

"Should I show him how it's done? Since the shackles have been broken, what's holding me back?" The being mumbled, and his crazed, ominous, white-dyed, scribbled grin appeared on his masked face again.

"Let's just take over from here on out, since I have waited long enough."

***

BANG!

'QQQQQQIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII' Eshwar's mind blanked, and a strange sound rang in his head, killing off all the sounds in his surroundings. The demoness had abruptly slammed her palms against each other with Eshwar's head in the middle. And his vision blurred at that moment. He felt some kind of liquid trickling down beneath his ears, which he concluded to be blood. The weird thing was that he could feel the same sensation beneath his eyes and nose too.

He felt like his eyes would pop out of his eye sockets; the last sight he saw before his vision completely blurred was the figure of the petite demoness retreating with an apathetic expression on her face. He cursed at himself for not listening to instincts that had been screaming at him, asking him to run away. Since he could do nothing about that, he continued to fall down, towards the ground, as his eyelids grew heavier and heavier, and before he could find a way to snap back into consciousness, he fell unconscious.

DING

[Title: Indifferent Berserker of the Twilight (IBOTT) activated.]

'What's there be "activated" when it's just a title?' Eshwar mumbled in his conscious state, and abruptly his eyes snapped wide open, and he knew for sure that he wasn't the one in control of his body; his lips twitched again.

"Let me borrow this for a while." Eshwar's mouth moved and mumbled out a few words that Eshwar hadn't intended.

"[Link]" Eshwar's mouth moved and mumbled, activating the white parasite's ability.

ZTKRAT-RAKT

With a static of electric sparks and sounds, all the guns Eshwar had on him materialised above his head, and his gaze landed on the expressionless demoness that was staring at him with fear written all over her face.

"Wait." Eshwar's mouth moved again, but this time in a commanding tone, causing the demoness to flinch, stopping her right when she was about to lunge herself towards Eshwar's body.

"Eat it." Eshwar's body moved on its own as it raised his left arm that Devil's shotgun had wrapped itself around towards the other guns above his head.

'What nonsense?' Eshwar mumbled inwardly, but his consciousness stiffened when the Devil's shotgun began to wiggle, complying with the command.

"Graaaoooo!!" The hoarse growl resounded as the veins covering Eshwar's left arm got released and turned into razor-sharp shark fang-like teeth that soon chomped on the guns, eating them, as a clunking, metal-crushing sound resounded in the barrier-covered room.

CLUNK-CLINK

With a metal clunking sound resounding in the room, the Devil's shotgun began to morph, until it became a small fist-sized ball of metal veins in his palm, then his body moved on its own again and bit his index finger, gathering a droplet of mana-filled blood that was then dropped on the metal ball of veins that was previously an ominous aura oozing shotgun.

TISSSSSSS...

"Graooo!" The veins shot out again and pounced on Eshwar's face, which was guarded with his left forearm, and it wasn't long before the veins completely engulfed Eshwar's left forearm, pricking into his arm and sucking almost half of his aether directly from his aether core.

CLUNK-CLINK

Now, whenever Eshwar willed, his seemingly robotic left forearm would form a desired gun's small barrel and muzzle above his forearm, which he could use to fire aetheric bullets instead of physical, different, custom-made bullets. But the weird thing was that the barrels and muzzles of different guns were forming above his forearm without his will right now, as if they were complying with an entirely different will.

"Good." Eshwar's mouth moved and mumbled as if satisfied by the result.

"Oh, martial arts? That's a surprise." Eshwar's mouth mumbled again, and soon Eshwar's consciousness blanked in confusion over whatever was happening.

"Now, shall we continue?" His gaze then landed on the demoness, who had been frozen still in fear of the being in front of her.

"Since, it's been a while I've been outside, let's use a wider space, and we definitely need a few audiences," Eshwar's mouth mumbled, and before Eshwar's snapped out of his stupor, he had appeared behind the demoness's back, gazing at her nape.

"Don't we?" His body asked, and as soon as the demoness turned to face him, his right arm moved and grabbed her face with a bright, ominous smile on his face.

"Heh." He ominous smile widened, he kicked off of the ground, pulled the struggling demoness's head back, spun, and threw her at the barrier.

BAM!!!!

The demoness's face showed a great deal of surprise, and when she glanced forward to find Eshwar's body, her eyes widened when she saw him right in front of her with an ominous smile plastered on his face.

BANG!!!

His body punched at her stomach with his clenched, left fist as he saw her eyes go white for a second before her consciousness was forced back when a large amount of aether gathered in Eshwar's left forearm, but before the demoness could react to it,

BOOOOOMMM!!!!

Eshwar's body used Devil's shotgun's "burst" skill at point-blank range.

"Let me show you how to use every ability you possess."
