Your Not So Ordinary Villain

Chapter 325 Captured

?

The witch was confused as to what had happened. She created a hundred layers of her barrier to fend off against the intruder and yet all of it shattered with one single strike. The force of the barrier shattering created a cloud of dust that filled the entire forest.

She was also pushed back and suffered some injuries because of the backlash she got from the force of the attack. Whatever the intruder did, it still affected her. She could feel that her organs suffered a shock similar to that of an electric shock. She forced herself to stand up despite the pain in her body because she could already feel them approaching.

The witch took several steps back and this sudden action made her groan. She had no choice though, she needed to get away before they could reach her. She needed time to recover to be able to fight them again.

She only managed to run a couple of meters with her speed magic and yet the intruder was able to catch up. She cursed under her breath and urged her magic to go faster. In a matter of seconds she was already a hundred meters ahead but she came to realize that it was futile.

Cygnus watched as the woman started to run away after the barriers broke into pieces. She was quite persistent so he let her go ahead before chasing her. Cygnus could tell that she was injured and yet she could still use magic. He came to know that the woman also had a special talent after observing her from where he stood.

After a couple of minutes, he decided to follow and closed their distance at an incredible speed. The woman noticed so she moved faster but Cygnus only laughed. No matter how fast the woman run or fly or even teleported, the master would always catch up to her.

"You won't be able to outrun me!" Cygnus laughed. 

He sped up from above and landed along the path of the woman. As soon as his feet touched the ground, a high and thick wall of earth appeared. This wall covered the span of the whole forest, from left to right and it's height reached the skies.

The woman was startled as she came to a halt. From afar, she could see a man sitting on a seat made of earth as if he had been waiting for him. She had her fists clenched and her teeth gritted.

If she could not move forward, then she'll have to go back. She turned back but before she could take a step, a voice pinned her on the spot. Her body suddenly felt heavy and her movements slowed.

"Don't run. I don't have enough patience to keep chasing after you." The voice sent shivers to his spine because it was so near.

So near that she couldn't help but think that the intruder was behind her. She tilted her head and tried to look back and there he was just an arm's reach from her. Her eyes were wide and large beads of sweat trickled down the side of her face.

He was supposed to be far away. She made sure to stop at a distance that could give her the chance to flee and yet how was that man this near. She was confused as to what happened to that distance.

"What are you?" She asked with a trembling voice. She avoided his gaze.

Cygnus disappeared behind her and appeared in front of her frozen body. "Now you are talking. I thought you were mute." He said instead of answering the woman's question.

Cygnus stared at the woman and just like the other people on the list, she looked young. She looked like someone in her early forties but Cygnus knew that it was not true. He also confirmed that the damage inside her body already healed.

"What do you want and why are you attacking me?" She asked again.

"It's because you attacked first. I was going to resolve all things with diplomacy but then several mana waves were aimed at us," Cygnus answered.

He looked at the woman like she had lost her mind. Yes, they were there to capture her but he was willing to have a conversation first. But, the witch still attacked so he couldn't help but be violent.

"That's because you intruded in my territory!" The woman shouted. She was trying to get out from the invisible binds that were holding her off.

"Should I apologize for that then?" Cygnus crossed his hands on his chest and raised an eyebrow.

The woman only glared at him and did not speak. She could already tell that he was not a man who would apologize or anything. Instead of answering, she was wriggling her body and trying to move.I think you should take a look at

Cygnus narrowed his eyes. "I told you that you won't be able to get away."

The invisible force tightened around her and it slowly revealed a red color. The cracking of bones could be heard from the woman and she screamed in pain. Her insides were being crushed and yet the man hadn't shown any sign of stopping.

Blood was starting to come out from her mouth, nose, eyes and ever her ears. Her loud screams were soon replaced with choking sounds as she tried to speak and breathe. She was desperately looking at Cygnus as she hoped that he would stop.

The master did not. He tightened the mana chains around the woman until she was barely alive before finally releasing it. The woman's body flopped on the ground like a ragged doll.

Cygnus returned to his seat just as Mr. C and Nina arrived. Their gaze couldn't help but linger on the sorry state of the woman. The woman was twitching as she was covered in her own blood.

Cygnus did not speak and just watched the woman in silence so Nina and Mr. C also followed suit. The woman's body started to tremble as her cracked bones slowly mended. Her deformed skin started to get smooth and the blood on her body disappeared. After a few minutes, she looked like a new doll.

She opened her eyes and pushed herself up with a groan. She coughed and looked around then she felt the presence behind her. The witch looked back and saw three pairs of eyes looking at her.

"How much have you paid for that ability?" Mr. C asked when the woman's attention was on them.

The woman trembled and pushed herself back. She did not want to stay in that place with them. She was living her life in silence and yet why were they persistent in looking for her.

She shook her head. She did not want to speak to them. She just wanted to live in peace. She already isolated herself from the world and regretted whatever she did in the past but she couldn't.

"Of course you won't because now that I am here, you won't be able to forget what you did in the past. The countless lives that you took in the name of justice, I will avenge them all." Cygnus stood up and slowly walked towards the woman.

He crouched down and reached out to lift the woman's chin. He looked him in the eye and flashed his red bloody eyes. The woman shivered and her body was shaking badly.

"A thousand years of unpaid blood, you will repay it now." Cygnus tightened his grip on the woman's chin.

He released and pushed the woman back before he signaled for Mr. C to take her. She was weak and her mind was in disarray. Her state was pitiful but Cygnus didn't care.

A gate appeared and Mr. C dragged the woman by the hand. They disappeared beyond the darkness while Nina and Cygnus were still outside. Nina did not urge him to follow immediately and just waited with him.

When the master was ready to live, she finally spoke. "Are you going to leave this place like this?"

Cygnus stopped and thought about it first before nodding his head. "Let this be a sign for those people."

They left the Dead Forest as it was after the fight and after that, words started to circulate in the El Merey kingdom. There were rumors that a monster destroyed half of the forest while others had different opinions. Those with other guesses believed that the cause of the destruction was a person.

This was because the Dead Forest was the dwelling place of the witch. Also there was no proof that a monster could cause that kind of destruction. There must be someone out there who hated the witch, enough for half of that forest to be destroyed.

The king of El Merey immediately dispatched a team to investigate the matter. This was not a laughing matter because the destruction was made by a single power. If that was the case, he couldn't let that person go.
