Villain: Ultimate Mutation System in the Alternate World

Chapter 46: Silent Killing Part 1

"P— Please don't kill me," pleaded the young man.

But before he could get a response, he felt his throat itching.

Hurriedly, he raised his hands to cover the hole in his neck. Blood began to gush out, and he tasted the metallic tang in his mouth before he vomited blood that tainted the ground.

"BUAHHHHH," he vomited again, knelling to the ground and desperately covering his mouth, hoping to stop the flow of blood.

His death was slow and agonizing. The strike failed to penetrate his spinal cord, sparing him from immediate fatality.

In this moment, he felt deep regret. If he had stayed home and not joined his friends, maybe just maybe, he wouldn't be in a situation like this.

But it was too late; there were no "what if" scenarios in real life.

THUD!

He collapsed to the floor, together with six more lifeless bodies who were his friends, all killed by a beautiful woman they had assumed to be innocent and harmless.

And who could blame them?

She possessed soft, flowing blonde hair and eyes of a captivating blue, their radiance undimmed even by the darkest of skies.

Her skin was flawless; her face was delicate in its contours; her nose charmingly small, and her lips exuded an irresistible charm. She eclipsed even the most renowned actresses on television in her sheer beauty.

They had come from the city to camp, and after seeing Anna, they were instantly captivated by her appearance and invited her for a drink, completely unaware of her true nature.

When one of their friends touched her shoulder, she became furious, and they foolishly thought they could force her down to the ground and take advantage of her.

However, they all ended up dead instead.

"I have to get back soon," Anna muttered to herself.

They planned to attack the town around 10:00 pm, so George instructed her to be on standby until around 8:00 pm.

While she was sitting on the roof to kill time, she spotted a camp fire in the distance and decided to investigate. That's how she ended up with these six corpses.

"I'll just bring them to Reign as an appetizer," she giggled, and absorbed their blood first to lighten their weight.

Then, she created a crimson rope and began pulling the corpses, their bodies leaving a mark on the ground as she dragged them along.

Arriving at the farm house, Anna presented the corpses to Reign, who greeted her with a chilling smile.

"Excellent work, Anna," Reign praised, examining the lifeless dry bodies .

'She's really useful,' he chuckled, thinking it would've taken him much longer to get stronger without her.

He began devouring the six corpses, his eating speed had increased a lot after reaching level 20. It didn't even take him two minutes to consume everything.

Anna, too, was curious about how Reign was able to devour everything as if he were a bottomless pit.

In comparison , she condensed the blood she got and slowly absorbed its essence, while Reign even consumed the bones.

The only explanation she could come up with was that his stomach acid must be incredibly strong, instantly dissolving everything it touched.

'Not enough,' he thought to himself.

The six corpses didn't push him to the next level. But he wasn't bothered because he knew he'd soon attend an all-you-can eat buffet.

"Do we really need to wait any longer?" Reign asked, his impatience evident. He might be intelligent, but he was also a psychotic monster, so his patience occasionally succumbed to his primal instincts.

"Timing is the key. You will sneak into their homes without a noise, taking out your targets quickly while they're fast asleep. Meanwhile, I'll wait on the truck, to make our getaway after we're done." George explained.

Reign sighed and nodded. It wasn't a bad plan, so he didn't bother arguing. .

At around 8:00 pm, they climbed into the truck.

George took the driver's seat, with Anna beside him in the front. Meanwhile, Reign had to conceal himself in the back, wrapping his body with a sheet to hide his monstrous body.

As soon as George hit the pedal, Reign could feel the jolts of the bumpy road beneath him.

He felt annoyed, wanting to scold George for what seemed like purposely making the ride difficult.

And he was right. George would intentionally accelerate when encountering bumps, fully aware that Reign lacked a seatbelt.

Anna, on the other hand, remained oblivious to it all. Her sense of balance was so good that the bumps hardly bothered her.

Moreover, her limited knowledge about cars meant she didn't find anything unusual about George's driving style.

'That damn psycho!' Reign grumbled, his frustration mounting. He clenched his claws, digging them into the car floor in irritation.

'Why am I surrounded by a bunch of crazy people?'he added.

They continued their travel,, the truck rattling along the dark country roads.

After an hour, they finally spotted the town. It was much smaller than Reign had expected, but that worked to their advantage. It would be easier to find their targets and make their escape without being detected.

As they neared the town, George pulled the truck into an abandoned house instead of stopping on the side of the road.

Having scouted the area earlier in the morning, he knew the abandoned house was uninhabited. It served as the perfect temporary hideout: dark, secluded, and conveniently close to the residential area they intended to target.

He climbed out, motioning the two to start.

"I'll take the right, you take the left," Reign ordered, knowing full well that splitting up with Anna would make their mission faster.

"Uhm," Anna nodded in agreement, wasting no time as she dashed towards the first house.

Reign went in the opposite direction, his increased agility allowing him to leap onto the roof effortlessly.

His plan was simple: access the house through an unlocked window, as most people didn't bother to lock them. If that option wasn't available, he'd improvise and find another way in.

'Lucky,' he thought to himself after seeing a loose window.

With a swift motion, he reached out and unlatched the glass, sliding it up effortlessly. Gently, he hoisted himself inside, landing silently on the soft carpet.

Inside, Reign heard the gentle sounds of snoring and observed two couples nestled together in each other's arms.

SLASH!

SLASH!

With cruel efficiency, Reign's claws ruptured the necks of the two couples. They died so quickly that they never even realized they were dead. In a twisted way, it was an act of mercy for them.

Reign began devouring them there, the blood soaking the bed as he fed. Once he finished his grisly meal, he turned to leave the house..

There were still some people in this place, but they were children, and the thought didn't sit well with Reign.

He even instructed Anna not to harm any kids, recalling his own traumatic experience of being kidnapped and used in a laboratory when he was a child.

It might be hypocritical for him to act this way, but Reign didn't care. He believed in having a bottom line, and for him, harming children was where he drew it.

'I'm too good for my own good,' he sighed to himself before leaping out of the window.
