The Villain’s Light - Chapter 94
Reif’s aura rose to the extreme. The power he has before he fell into a coma far paled in comparison to the power he has now
It was similar to comparing a stone and gold, the comparison is a big insult to the latter
Just the explosion that resulted in Reif’s ‘power up’ already destroyed the multiple barriers that Nath and the church has prepared
It can be seen how terrifying his power is right now
“Anyone that dares to touch my big brother is fated to die” Reif declared as if that was the law
The bright crimson light pillar that he emitted subsided yet the terrifying aura that he has was still present
With a wave of his hand, the space itself cracked and shattered into smaller pieces. As if they were mere stones, Reif grabbed the spatial fragments before throwing them at all the clergy around him
He didn’t even mind the spatial storm caused by the result of his action. The storm wasn’t able to harm his body at all
Existences that could shatter space were few in number. The people that could do that in the whole world are very little
But now, Reif has become a part of the small population. Not to mention, he can even shatter space so easily as if he was merely tearing fragile papers
All the clergy with no exemption died as spatial fragments tore their bodies. Not even a drop of blood was left
The crack in space was also repaired by the world itself but if Reif wish to, he could instantly shatter it again
“Y-you dare!” An enraged voice shouted. His voice was extremely defeaning as if the heavens themselves was angered
Amidst the silence brought by the death of the creatures around, a bright white light soared into the air
Behind Nath was a pair of brilliant wings that were akin to what angels have. His original aura was that of pure gentleness but it was changed right now into something filled with anger
In Nath’s hand was his Holy Sword. It still does not have even one of the shard of brilliance but its power still knows no bounds
The death of his clergy aroused the utmost of Nath’s anger. He was even more convinced that if he don’t deal with Reif, he would really die soon without accomplishing his mission
In a flash, the Holy Sword was covered with spiral light energies that gave it an even more threatening power
Nath’s wings madly flapped in the air as he broke through the sound barrier to charge at Reif
What he expected as a fierce and hard battle didn’t happen. In fact, it doesn’t look like a battle at all!
Reif simply gathered a small crimson ball of energy at the tip of his finger before sending it to Nath
The single small ball then turned into a fan shape attacked that is made only to do one thing and that is to destroy!
Destruction! Utter destruction! That is the nature of Reif’s power and he has proven it at this moment
The single ball alone destroyed a large area. The ground itself liquified due to the intense heat
The fierce battle that should have taken place here was ended with just one crimson ball alone
When Reif’s attack subsided, only then did Nath show himself again
Deep into the ground, his body could be seen. He was bleeding from head to toe
His eyes were wide open in shock. He already had a few encounters with Reif and he was defeated in most of them
However, none of those encounters were the same as this one!
At those times, Nath could still resist for some time. It wasn’t like this one where the winner was decided in just a single instance
“N-no! T-this cannot be! I a-am the S-Son of G-God!” Nath muttered unwillingly. He was the most exalted existence in this world
While everyone around him is mortal, he on the other hand is a blessed divine creature
He is a child of God! The one that is destined to stand at the top of this world! The one that would conquer and dominate it! This shouldn’t be happening at all!
“God?” Reif sneered at hearing that. “What you worship is not a God but only someone that is trying to be one!”
With the help of his previous selves, Reif learned a lot of things in this world. He is still not completely enlightened but he still knows a lot
In theory, this world might be a story book or at least akin to one
Even if this world is not written by an author, it still has the same characteristics
There is a force in this world that is controlling everything behind. Nath’s fate was decided before he could even be born
His fate is to climb to the top of this world while defeating his ‘demonic opponent’
In a novel, Nath was akin to the protagonist of the story and Reif is the greatest villain that he should kill
Nath’s path of being the protagonist was already set before he was even born. On the other hand, Reif’s life as being the biggest villain is also already set before he came into this world
No matter how people in this world struggled to change the fate that they are born with, they would fail
Reif is the strongest existence in this world, even stronger than the ‘protagonist’ but even he failed countless times before that is until he found one solution
That solution was in the form of Rhash. As a person that is not originally part of this world or possibly ‘book’ he was not influenced by the mysterious force in this world
But even then, the ‘big things’ that should happen in this world is still going to happen such as Reif’s reputation of being evil
However, with Rhash’s presence, there might still be a chance for Reif to not succumb to his fate of being Nath’s stepping stone!
Reif gathered energy into his hand again. This time, it wasn’t a mere ball that looks like a small dot
The energy he gathered was multiple times bigger than the first one as it shadowed his whole palm
With a swift movement, Reif threw the ball at the fake son of God. This ball has enough power to kill Nath but would things be easy?
Of course not!
Even without Nath saving himself, there is already someone that would save him. After all, he is the ‘protagonist’ of this world and the one that would kill the ‘antagonist’. He cannot die prematurely especially at the hands of the villain
A golden barrier appeared around Nath without any warning. As soon as Reif’s crimson landed on it, the ball instantly vanishes as if it don’t have the power to obliterate multiple mountains at once
“Hmph, I guess it really is time for you to interfere, Fake God” Reif snorted after seeing that barrier
It was more powerful and divine than anything he had encountered. Reif is sure that if the person behind that golden barrier wants to kill him, it would be as easy as breathing
Fortunately, he could only be killed by the ‘protagonist’ Nath and no one else
A few seconds pass before a ball of light formed above Nath that has lost his consciousness already
“I see, you have been already enlightened at the truth of this world again. However, why do you still want to go against fate? Everything would just be repeated no matter how hard you try!”
A mysterious and majestic voice came out from that ball of light. It could definitely make any mortal feel inferior but Reif is not a normal mortal!
“Unlike you, I don’t plan on being subservient forever to whatever that strange force is” Reif said in disdain
If it was said that Reif is the strongest person in this world, that might not be necessarily true in some ways
Among the mortals and material world, he is the strongest. However, there is also the existence of a ‘God-like’ being
He is not a real God but if this world is really a storybook then the God of Light is the God of this world
Existences like Reif and the God of Light is aware of the mysterious force in this world that is guiding everyone on the path that it already decided on
“You have failed countless of times already, why do you never learn?” the voice said with a sigh
“While it’s easy for you to say that as you are an existence worship by all, I couldn’t agree. I have been persecuted ever since I was born. We are not the same” Reif replied
If his past selves didn’t rebel and brought a person from the other world into this one, would he even know what it feels like to be loved?
To have someone that is happy just by seeing you happy? A person that is willing to sacrifice everything for you?
