Should I Become a Villain?

Chapter 81 He Is Not The Real One



The security team needed time to evacuate the television crew and the delegates at the meeting. Only some people at the IRO were awakeners. Because of that, they were busy securing people.

Even the awakened members could not act recklessly. They were not permitted to join the fight while the security team was present.

They were only allowed to fight when there was an attack that threatened the entire world or when the attack targeted people with no power.

Unfortunately, the undead army's attacks were not dangerous enough for them to intervene. The undead army also did not attack ordinary people who had no powers.

"The undead army is smart. They seem to understand our rules. They deliberately avoid attacking the delegates to keep us from getting involved." Renate adjusted her glasses as she gazed at the undead army.

The security team with magic guns kept attacking the undead army. Dealing with the undead was simple for them, but there were far too many of them.

Even after being hit by flame bullets, dozens of undead could regenerate. The security team discovered that the undead army was more powerful than the average undead.

A few bullets pierced through one undead after another, but they lacked the power to do much damage. The undead army was too strong.

"As predicted. The undead army is also on a different level," Hector responded to Renate's words while observing the movements of the undead army.

They were speedy that the security team struggled to beat them. It must have taken the security team a long time to completely defeat the undead army.

"What are you doing?" Renate gripped Hector's hand when she saw him stomp the floor. She knew it was his trigger. "You can't leave. I won't let it happen."

"As if I care," Hector replied, grinning as the system screen popped up.

[This is the list of powers available for now:

1. Telekinesis (A): Moves any object you want for two hours. One attack deals 10% of the target's maximum HP in damage.

2. Regeneration (B): For one hour, you and your allies regain 5% of your maximum HP every second. You will be resurrected in perfect health if you die during this period.

3. Ice Wall (C): An ice wall appears around you. Regular attacks cannot destroy this wall. You have half an hour to use this power. Cooldown: five minutes.

The system will automatically process the power you want to use. Please keep in mind that you can only use one power at a time, and the cooldown for using the next power is one hour.]

Hector chose to fight the undead army. He shook Renate's grip from his hands and dashed towards the undead army with his ice sword. It was an ice magic sword that made his opponent freeze for half an hour.

He sliced through the undead army like butter, slashing more than ten undead in less than five seconds. Each slash managed to make the undead freeze.

"Sir, what are you doing?" Someone from the security team asked in surprise. He was sure that the head of the council was not required to intervene in this situation.

Hector remained silent and continued to strike the undead army. He realized how much damage he had caused. There was some completely frozen undead already.

They were not dead yet, so he had to continue attacking them. However, if they continued to be struck by his sword, they would perish.

"Need help?" A man asked in a loud voice while walking towards Hector. It was Yash who was seen removing the bandages from his fingers.

Hector raised his head briefly before turning away. "I can clear this fight with the security team in fifteen minutes. Your help isn't needed here. Thank you."

"If that's the case, then I will make this fight end in a heartbeat," Yash smiled before biting his thumb until it bled.

Flames appeared from the drops of blood on the floor a split second later. Everyone was stunned as the flames devoured the undead army in no time. They had heard about Yash's power.

That man, like Lynette, was among the awakeners with the most powerful Elemental Power. His fire magic was permanent. Nothing could extinguish it unless he wanted the fire to go out.

As a result, the undead army was defeated when Yash used his power. They could not regenerate anymore because the fire magic burned forever on their bodies.

"See? The fight was over in an instant," Yash said while covering his bleeding thumb with a bandage.

Meanwhile, Hector narrowed his eyes as he realized Yash was not someone who would break the rules. He also noticed the flash of anger in the man's eyes.

"Is there anything you want to say to me?"

Yash stopped wrapping the bandage around his thumb to look at Hector. He then replied with a cold expression, "I helped the security team to evacuate the television crew. At that time, I overheard them discussing the kidnapping case handled by the secret research team."

The kidnapping case was shown on television when the IRO held an emergency meeting. Yash would be unaware because only a few were informed of Maido's detailed predictions.

However, the man had heard the news from the television crew. Hector could guess where their conversation would end. He knew very well how Yash's character was. Yash dared to express his thoughts to anyone.

"The research team was under your supervision from the beginning. I have heard that the research team has kidnapped many children from my country to use as guinea pigs. Do you know about this case? Or are you also involved in it?"

Hector sighed as Yash spoke in a high tone, making people in the conference room look at them curiously. "You will know the answer later in the press conference. We better not talk about this because we still have problems to take care of right now."

"Press conference," Yash repeated to Hector while rolling his eyes. "Why should I wait? Do you need time to write lies and find scapegoats?"

"Watch your mouth, kid. We are in public now. If you really want to talk about this, then we can do so after we catch the masked man."

"No need. You'd better prepare some nice words for a formal apology. Don't play with fire and expect not to get burned, Sir."

Yash walked out of the room before Hector could respond. Tension returned to the room after he left. Those who did not know anything used their phones to find out what was happening.

It turned out that the IRO became viral on the internet not because they held an emergency meeting but because of a kidnapping case carried out by their research team.

Everyone must have had the same thought when they heard the news. The IRO messed up big time. They held an emergency meeting to respond to the sudden gate explosion. However, they instead fell into a new problem.

Outside the conference building, Radmilo was still busy with the magic arrows. He did not run anywhere. He knew that if he tried to escape, the enemy archers would only focus their attention on him.

When Radmilo ran, he would have a difficult time avoiding the arrows. That's why he stayed put and continued to block the arrows. Furthermore, the wound on his hand had not completely healed. He often felt pain there when lifting his sword.

"Whoa, they are everywhere!"

Radmilo took a step back, then another. His long legs helped him stay on his feet even though arrows were shooting at him from all directions. Fortunately, he had the speed and agility to outrun magical arrows.

The arrows only caused minor injuries to Radmilo's body when several arrows pierced his leg. But it hurt nonetheless, especially when they hit more than once in a row.

As long as Radmilo blocked them, he did not have to worry about the arrows hitting him. The pain from a single arrow was not enough to make him give up on his plan.

Meanwhile, Hector ignored the people's gaze and gave instructions to the security team. He needed to confront Radmilo before the masked man did something even crazier.

"How are things going?" Hector asked the security team outside through the magic earpiece. "I and my team will be there in a minute."

'Don't come here, Sir. I caught something strange.'

Hector stopped walking when he heard a reply from Leroy, the head of Unit B. "Something strange?"

'I was a bodyguard who survived when the attack on the president happened. Therefore, I know a little about the masked man.'

"What are you trying to say?"

On the other hand, Leroy gave Radmilo an intense look before answering. "I don't think this masked man is the real one. He's different from what I saw back then. I mean, he's similar physically, but his attack patterns are different. Kiss of Death has something planned."
