The Villain's Story

'Soon..'

'soon..'

'Soon...'

Alan walked in the stormy rain...his eyes glowing a mysterious blue.

He had left Samantha at his grandmother's house because of the rain and had departed from there even though his grandmother had asked him to stay. He needed to do something...he needed to do something.

'Sooonnn...'

That lone word reverberated in Alan's mind...again and again as he remembered Aranus's words.

*pitter*Patter*

The pittering of the rain was rather blissful, but the thunderous lightning in the clouds however contrasted with the blissfulness.

Alan walked all alone in the streets, his figure soaking wet from the storm.

It was dark, and because of the sharp rain, every shop was closed. The streets of Aror were desolate all except for Alan walking calmly in the rain.

'...I can't waste any time...'

Alan thought...and took an astral blue orb out of his inventory... The unique item Spatial Orb. The orb contained knowledge of the attribute of space...the thing that was the reason he knew something of the space element...

Alongside knowledge of the space element...the orb also contained the methods and means to decode Spatial coordinates...with the only problem being he was unable to understand them...without the use of [Dragon eyes].

'I need to find Elvenheim...fast.'

Alan thought... he was desperate.

During the year...he had tried to Understand the orb...he activated Dragon eyes until he couldn't withstand the pain.

But even then...he had extremely little time to understand this thing...and the bad thing was each use of the Dragon Eyes left him very weak.

His mind would be like it was on fire, and his eyes would feel as if thousands of needles had penetrated them...

It was hell.

But now he didn't care...he didn't have enough time...he needed to man up and endure the pain.

In the middle of the street, under the stormy rain...he activated it...

[Dragon Eyes have been activated.]

An astral glow emanated from his eyes...the Spatial Orb glowed as well.

Mysterious runic symbols emerged from the orb, surrounding Alan whose eyes were lighting up the entire area.

*Pitter*Patter*

His eyes began to bleed very quickly...and although his face scrunched up in pain...he endured it...with just a little hope in trying to understand them.

And just as he was about to...Just as Dragon Eyes was about to show him the meaning of a single symbol...just as he was about to decode it...withstanding the pain... A nuisance appeared.

*Shiu!*

Something flew through the air, cleaved through the rain, and struck Alan's neck.

A Syringe containing red liquid, With a needle sharp enough to stick in Alan's thick skin.

The sudden intrusion surprised Alan...and he instinctively canceled Dragon's eyes...and lost the chance to decode the meaning of the symbol.

*Shiu!**Shiu*

Dozens more flew through the air and struck Alan at multiple places.

His back, head, front body, and legs...the weird bullets struck at multiple places...

The red liquid...deposited itself inside Alan, As Alan stood still...a hidden rage welled up inside him.

"Get him! He has no mana now!"

"Die Awakened scum!"

He heard voices...as multiple bullets attacked him now, explosive and piercing types...

*BOOM!*

A massive explosion engulfed Alan's figure...and the voices resounded once again.

"Did we get him?"

"Even B-ranked can't survive that!"

But they would be proven soo so so wrong.

"Huh?"

One of the attackers, covered in black forces armor...looked confused as he saw two blue lights within the flames of the explosion.

And then it happened, a shadow was seen...and Alan Peccatro stepped outside...completely unharmed...

His shirt was in tatters...he exited the flames of the explosion...his eyes glowing an astral blue...that looked so terrifying in the grey environment...in the rain.

And then...just from a glance at Alan's expression...they felt fear...and this was the worst and last mistake of their lives.

****

*Pitter*Patter*

"Ghh...Ghhh."

Alan stood, covered in blood that was being cleaned by the rain...in his right hand the neck of one of the attackers in black.

"Sp...are...me..ee."

The poor man tried to speak...yet Alan simply tightened his grip around his neck.

*crack*...

"uhh..Ghaahh."

The man's face slowly turned purple...then red as his neck was crushed under Alan's monstrous Grip...until finally...his neck was no longer there...Alan's grip strength had just brutally decapitated the man...

"Shooot!!!"

Another man yelled, and Alan disappeared as the storm of bullets made their way toward him.

He appeared in front of two men who were shooting, and grabbed their heads and slammed them into the concrete ground and ran them at a high speed...all whilst their heads were in the ground.

Half of their heads were brutally shaven off...as parts of their skull and brain, now all mush leaked out.

"...Monster...monster."

Yes...he was a monster...a monster that was barely being contained.

Alan approached the final man left standing alive...all whilst he was covered in blood.

"AHH!!"

The man began to shoot...but the bullets bounced off Alan...he put an in new magazine quickly and began to empty that one as well... as Alan slowly walked towards him.

The man knew that this monster would simply catch him if he ran...so he tried to at least have a heroic last stand...

But even a 'heroic' last stand against this monster was futile.

Alan was now in front of the man...and only now did the man realize the behemoth that Alan was...

Muscles filled his body...covered in blood that was not his own...a head taller than the man...and an expression that instilled fear into the man.

The man was about to fall due to his fear...but his shoulders were grabbed by Alan...and what followed next was a gruesome sight...that would make even the most hardened war veterans look away.

"AHHHHH!"

*RIP*CRACK*

Amidst his screams...his fragile body was torn in half by Alan...and Just like that Alan finished off everyone in such a gruesome way.

He had killed the insects that dared to disturb him...

*Pitter*Patter*

Alan stood, now alone in the rain...as he bathed in the rainwater...the grey skies, filled with lightning rumbled...as if the sky itself was afraid...

After the blood and flesh had washed off his body...Alan calmly began to walk again after he picked up the Spatial Orb...Not minding the slaughter he had done...

He walked towards the Twilight Branch office as the intensity of the rain increased...distancing himself from the massacre...the bloody area of the city.

His steps were awkward...and the reason for this was that his vision was blurry due to the usage of Dragon Eyes...

He got far far away...and someone bumped into him...an old man in a raincoat.

"Sorry!"

The old man said...and ran opposite to Alan in a hurry...oblivious to the fact that he had nearly died just there.

Alan ignored the man...and continued walking in the rain...and then he had a thought.

"Purge..."

He said...ALan...clearly not in the right state of mind... said as thunder rumbled in the skies and lightning lit up the area.

"This town needs to be purged for their safety..."

*RUMBLE!*

And his astral blue eyes...which emanated a terrifying glow brightened even further.
