Apocalypse Chaos - I am the villain - Chapter 185 Assimilate
That’s right, Hikaru also didn’t know whether to call Kiin lucky or unlucky. It was almost impossible for a person to meet the main male character – Rayze one day, and the next day encounter and fight another main character – Tadashi.
The odds of someone like Kiin meeting the two main characters back-to-back were extremely small, but Kiin actually met Rayze and Tadashi.
This means Kiin is lucky or it could also be said that he is extremely unlucky.
However, Hikaru is more inclined to the third hypothesis, yes, that Kiin was caught up in the wheel of fate.
‘It seems making him my ally has caused him to be caught up in the wheel of fate.’
‘No matter how much he hides, it is certain that he will encounter the other main characters.’
While Hikaru was thinking, Kiin’s voice rang out again. His voice was filled with worry and fear: “So… what should we do?” Surely they will be very strong, I don’t want to continue facing them.”
“Can I…can I move to another place? A bit far from the city.”
Hikaru frowned, he forgot one thing and that was that even though Kiin possessed power, his personality had not changed.
A person’s personality was extremely difficult to change. Besides… due to the fact Kiin easily got his super powers and strength, his personality hadn’t had time to change to adapt to his strength.
“No, you just have to stay here. Don’t worry, your strength is not too different from theirs.”
“What you need to do now is kill as many zombies as possible, and take the energy crystals inside their brains and eat it.”
“Thus, you can quickly become stronger, your strength will even surpass that of the young man from before and Rayze.”
“Do you understand?”
Kiin was a little worried when he heard that. However, he believed that Gody wouldn’t lie to him, so he nodded and said: “I… I understand.” I will try to become stronger.”
“Good! Don’t let me down. In this world, only a few people can reach the threshold to the Divine Realm.”
“Divine Realm?” Kiin asked confusedly, his eyes seemed to see something extremely wonderful.
However, no one responded to him as the space once again sank into silence.
Kiin realized that Gody had left. He frowned and thought: ‘Divine realm? Could it be… I am the one chosen by Gody?’
‘He certainly chose me, that’s why he gave me strength and superpowers.’
‘The Divine Realm … I can definitely get there. Huh! I will definitely become stronger.’
…
Hikaru stood on a building, while looking into the distance. There was only darkness and snow in front of him.
[Master, the Divine Realm you just talked about…]
“I just made it up.”
[Heh?! Do you think he will believe you?]
“He will definitely believe me. His personality is like that, weak, cowardly and stupid. However, it is because of his personality that I can easily control him.”
“Of all the villains in this world, currently, he is the one who possesses the greatest potential but has the lowest IQ.”
[Are you planning to use Kiin to deal with Rayze?]
“At first, I planned to do that. However, after killing Rakan, I have another plan.”
“For me right now, Rayze is no longer a danger. I can strangle him to death at any time.”
[So… what is your plan?]
“…” Hikaru didn’t answer, he just stared ahead.
[Ah! I knew you wouldn’t answer me. Stingy…]
Hikaru smiled, then left.
…
At the Noack mansion, it was already evening when he returned.
Hikaru took out the cube from Panara space, he looked at the cube in his hand, and began to think about how to use it.
“Open the function information panel.”
Hikaru commanded the cube, which immediately displayed a screen in front of him.
…
Assimilation: The cube can assimilate to a structure or device.
Once assimilated, the owner can freely change the architecture or structure of the device the cube has assimilated.
Absorption: The cube can absorb materials or energy crystals to replenish its own energy.
Note: The cube prioritizes absorbing energy crystals so it can function better.
Crafting: The cube can craft many items through the things it has absorbed.
However, the things this cube can make do not exceed this world’s standards.
…
After reading the functions of the cube, Hikaru clearly understood the Assimilation function and the Absorption function.
The Crafting function alone made him feel a bit confused.
‘Not surpassing this world’s standards… what does that mean?’
Hikaru frowned as he thought: ‘Ah! Okay, thinking too much is useless. Let me try using the functions, maybe I will have the answer.’
Holding the cube in his hand, he decided to let it assimilate with this villa.
That’s right, he didn’t want to search too much. For him, this mansion will be the place where he and Velys would live together until his mission ends.
Besides Velys, he also has Aiko. Maybe…Laylah and Yue will join him later. So he needed a safe place for them to live.
[Master, you’re starting to become greedy. You should remember, items that can help you bring people to the Fantasy world are not cheap.]
“I know… however, after killing Rakan, I thought I might have enough luck points to take them with me.”
“If one main character is not enough, then two main characters should be enough. If it isn’t, I will kill all the main characters until I have enough luck points to bring all of them to another world.”
[Heh?! Hikaru, do you realize that your personality has changed?]
“Of course I realize that. It seems that the higher my villain score, the more my personality changes to better suit a villain.”
“It’s okay. It is a necessary trait to help us survive in a world that is terrible and full of main characters.”
“Currently there are only Delmor, Rayze and Tadashi left. Ah! There is another main character in the ocean, however, I think he and I will definitely meet again in the future.”
“In the future, there will certainly be more main characters appearing. That’s why I think I’ll accumulate enough luck points that I need.”
[Hehehe… that’s good. At least, this is the personality I like.]
“Hmm? Do you like me?”
[Huh! I said I like your personality, not that I like you.]
“Um… I hope you don’t like me, you can’t touch me anyway.”
[AAA!! You should go and die!]
“Hahahaha…”
Hikaru laughed: “I also hope there aren’t too many people I need to bring along. For now, I will give priority to Velys. Aiko will be the next choice.”
“If Laylah really becomes my woman, I will take her with me too.”
“However, Laylah’s personality is a bit strange, I think she won’t want to follow me. That’s why Laylah remains a mystery.”
“Yue will have a higher chance of following me than Laylah, it will be about the same as Aiko. Now that I have grasped Yue’s mentality, perhaps… in a few days, she will completely give up on Rayze.”
[Ah! At first there was someone who said he didn’t want to get involved with any of the male protagonist’s women, now that person has spread his fangs towards many other women, it’s scary.]
Hikaru of course knew Rika was teasing him, but he wasn’t angry.
At first, he really thought like that because at that time he was scared.
That’s right, at that time he was really afraid that he couldn’t face the main characters, he was afraid that he would die easily.
However, Hikaru realized that people are often afraid of things they do not know or cannot see.
But when he knew everything and had a lot of information in his hand, Hikaru became more confident. No, to be more precise, he had completely changed.
From someone who just wanted to hide inside the bunker to a hunter constantly looking for his next target.
It wasn’t just a simple change, Hikaru seemed to have become a completely different person.
He thought that part of this change was his villainy.
Currently, his villain score was extremely high, it was over 400,000 points. Even higher than Rayze’s luck score when Hikaru first met him.
Moreover after killing Rakan, his confidence increased by many times.
At this moment, he began to extend his claws towards Rayze. Hikaru felt like Rayze was like a puppet in his hands.
He shook his head, he didn’t want to think too much. If any main character appears, he would kill that person, and steal as many luck points as possible.
If that main character is smart and stays away from him, he can let that main character continue to live.
No, he cannot do that. Doing so is too dangerous. A main character is the type of person who remembers hatred very well. If he lets them live, they will definitely take revenge.
Okay, then whenever a main character appears, he will kill that person, that was probably for the best.
Hikaru sighed, then he turned his attention to the cube.
“Start assimilating with this mansion.”
[Ding! To assimilate with this mansion requires consuming 300 energy crystals (F-), do you agree?]
“Agree.”
[Ding! Automatically absorb 300 energy crystals (F-) in Panara space, do you agree?]
“Agree!”
[Ding! Assimilation begins.]
The cube slowly flew closer to the floor, then, it penetrated the floor as if it was dissolving.
Immediately afterwards, countless blue veins emitting light like neon bulbs spread throughout the villa like in a science fiction movie.
Those veins spread outward, covering the entire mountain top and then disappeared as if they had never appeared.
Everything happened in less than 10 seconds, and suddenly a notice board appeared in front of Hikaru.
[Ding! Successful assimilation. Currently, you can change the architecture, function and renovate the entire villa and the surrounding mountain top.]
