The Villain’s Light - Chapter 108

“Shut up, you’re too noisy!” Agui roared angrily as he forcefully drag the poor little spider with him using the fire rope

If not for the fear he has towards his master, Agui might have burned that stupid spider already

“How can I shut up if you’re dragging me against my will?” Khaknur cried out while feeling wronged

Although it was true that he was bored and he wants to have something that could kill time, it doesn’t mean that he wants to go to a random place. Not to mention, the place that Agui wants to drag him into was a human society

As slaves of their masters, the church also put wanted posters of both Khaknur and Agui. If anyone were to see any of them, they would surely be arrested or worse, killed

Khaknur still wants to continue living and he doesn’t want to die

“W-wait! W-we are wanted terrorists, okay? We’ll surely get arrested or killed if we go anywhere near human societies!” Khaknur argued. Please, he just wants to lead a peaceful life. Why is this stupid lava monster dragging him away?

Fortunately, Agui is also not completely stupid. Khaknur’s words made sense and he starts to think things twice

If they really were to enter a human town or a village, there is more than 99% chance that they would not be able to return anymore

However, it’s not like there is no way for the two to still go and enjoy their own little trip

“Hey, teach me transformation magic or whatever. Anything that would change my appearance and make me look like a human” Agui ordered in a domineering manner

That was the solution to their current problem. Anyway, if they could not be recognized, they would not get arrested or killed, right?

“I-I can’t, I-I don’t know any magic like that” Khaknur answered while moving his creepy human head to the side

He looks exactly like a person that is guilty of lying. He was not being honest at all and Agui is not so stupid to fall for such an obvious lie

“Do as I say or I’ll turn you into a burnt spider” Agui threatened and Khaknur can feel the fire hope that originally wasn’t harming him rising in temperature

If not for Agui’s control, the fire rope would have turned Khaknur into a crisp already. If he wishes to, Khaknur might not even be able to resist

“I-I get it! S-stop!” Khaknur cried out in surrender. He feared that if he don’t give Agui what he wants, he would really die

Without a choice, Khaknur taught Agui a simple transformation magic

Although Agui is only focused on lava and fire magic, he still learned it easily. Of course, it doesn’t mean that he was good at it

Even a slightly strong human would know that he was using magic to alter his appearance. But for now, it was still passable

The two use a perfectly average appearance. The ones that would vanish if they were put into the crowd

That was in order for them to not attract any unwanted attention

After their preparations, the two decided to go into a small town. This was to minimize the risk of the church catching them

At first, Khaknur was terrified of going into such an unsafe place, but soon, he became more enthusiastic compared to Agui

“Come, come! Meat skewers taste really good!” Khaknur said happily while dragging Agui towards the stall selling meat skewers

“Boss, give us ten, no, 20!” Khaknur said happily and Agui rolled his eyes

This was like his first time entering a human society and the first place that Khaknur drag him into is a food stall?

What could Agui even get in there? He can’t eat foods that these humans eat!

“Coming right up!” The uncle selling the meat skewers answered happily. 20 is not a small quantity nor a big quantity. Even then, it was better than most people that only buy a few

After paying some coins, Khaknur took the meat skewers and he starts eating several sticks at once

“You want?” Khaknur offered after seeing Agui looking at him in boredom

“How do you suggest I eat that?” Agui asked coldly and Khaknur felt embarrassed. He forgot about that

The two strolled around the town for some time but it doesn’t have much to offer

As such, to Khaknur’s resistance, they decided to go into a city

The city they went into is one that is very familiar to Khaknur as it was also the nearest one. It was the Mesha City

The two were just about to enter the city when some sort of power hit their bodies and reveals their true form

The two has underestimated the city’s defense, especially after the church gained a huge influence in it

Not just any monstera could enter the city now and after seeing the real appearance of the two, all the guards were alerted

“Uh-oh” Khaknur gulped nervously and he immediately tried to run away

However, as one of the 3 biggest cities in the world, the Mesha City is not to be trifled with

A white light shot out and it landed right in the direction that Khaknur was fleeing into

As a result, the little spider was thrown away from the impact along with countless rubbles

Smokes spread everywhere and Agui caught Khaknur. Although he can bully this spider, he cannot kill him. If he does that, see if he wouldn’t be killed by their masters

“Familiar faces” the person that causes that white light commented and when the smokes died down, everyone could see that he was wearing white and gold armor, typical to the paladins of the church

“Woah, isn’t that the Great Paladin, Hugo?”

“It is but what is he doing here?”

“Are you an idiot? Look at those two monsters. They are the companions of those demons!”

“You mean the former Bloody Angel and Crimson Magician?”

“Yes, they are the ones I meant!”

“Sigh… I can still remember the times that those two are famous for their meteoric rise”

“Me too. Now that I remember it, I’m really glad that I am still alive. Those demons have killed countless people already!”

The people around talked with each other. Agui and Khaknur’s appearance was also spread everywhere and it wasn’t hard to recognize them

“This is dangerous, let’s run!” Khaknur said fearfully as a black platform appeared below him to help him fly in the air

Agui followed suit and the two are about to soar into the air when the Paladin strike the ground with his sword

Instantly, a square shape barrier appeared around Khaknur and Agui. The two monsters tried to destroy that barrier but no matter what attacked they used, the barrier simply wouldn’t budge

The paladin’s power was something that even they, could not compare with

“Heh… they think that they could destroy that barrier. How laughable!”

“Agreed! Paladin Hugo is one of the strongest Paladin in the Great Church!”

“It’s a dream to see him at least once. But thanks to these demonic monsters, we have been given that chance!”

“Praise be the Lord!”

As the people around gossiped, the two monsters madly tried to destroy the barrier but no matter what they does, they simply couldn’t break it

Both of them now regrets their decision that lead to this dangerous situation

“Come with me, as you can see, resistance is futile. His Holiness would surely want to see the two of you” the Paladin said before dragging the two away

He just comes and goes as he pleases, not minding the people looking at him with a fervent gaze

However, the people don’t think he was arrogant at all. They just think that someone like Paladin Hugo that is favored by God is not someone that the likes of them can compare to

“Noooo!!! I don’t want to dieeee!!! Uwaaahhh!!!” Khaknur wailed loudly and miserably but the paladin dragging them away didn’t even mind him

Anyway, since they couldn’t break free of the prison barrier, Hugo doesn’t need to entertain these two

“Damn human, how dare you!” Agui roared angrily as his lava fist banged on the prison

Unfortunately, no matter how much they resisted, it was all futile resistance just like what the Paladin said

In the end, they were put into a cell laced with divine power strong enough to prevent the both of them from escaping

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Agui madly punched the cell he was placed into with Khaknur but aside from some ripples, he wasn’t able to break it

He can even feel that his powers were being suppressed. He was far weaker compared to his peak

Well, even if he was at his peak and was not suppressed, he would still not be able to destroy his prison cell

What a joke! This is a cell of the church created with divine power. Its defensive capabilities is not something that just anyone could destroy
