Villain: Ultimate Mutation System in the Alternate World

'Seriously, this golden dust is ridiculous,' he grumbled. 'It's like I'm flapping around with glitter, making me look like some sort of mythical creature from a bedtime story. '

He focused his mind, trying to control the shimmering golden dust that had been surrounding his wings. He willed the light to fade, and slowly, the golden sparkle vanished. His wings were now a smooth, pristine white.

'There, that's better,' he said with a satisfied nod. 'No more unnecessary glitter making me stand out. I don't need to be a walking light show. '

'The slow speed might be a problem, but I'll manage,' he said to himself after testing his full speed.

He landed on the ground, his white wings folding neatly behind him before scattering into nothingness.

'Now it's time to check out my abilities,' he thought.

According to the system, angelic powers were different from what Reign had used before, and the logic behind them was slightly different as well.

Fortunately, the system had made it easier by streamlining the abilities.

This update saved him a lot of time and effort. Instead of struggling to understand and master each new power individually, the system had organized everything into a more intuitive format.

The abilities were now presented in a clear, user-friendly interface, allowing him to quickly grasp their functions.

Unlike the angels he had fought, who were limited to just one weapon, Reign had the freedom to choose any skills he wanted, as long as the system provided them.

After reading through the description, he got a general idea of how the angel's abilities worked.

He could use skill points to access and switch between different abilities as he pleased.

But unlike his usual skills, these new abilities couldn't be leveled up and relied on his base power.

Additionally, he needed to spend skill points each time he used them, fortunately, the cost per use was relatively low.

'So now the system is going the subscription route,'he sighed to himself.

His system was starting to feel like a massive corporation.

At first, it offered a lot of benefits, sometimes even operating at a loss. But now that it had captured the entire market, it was beginning to raise its prices.

Unfortunately, there wasn't much he could do about it.

No matter how vigilant he was with the system, there was no denying that it was exceptional at making his life easier.

Its algorithm was designed to make him more and more dependent on it as time went on.

And as the sole customer, all he could do was grind for more points, swiping his credit card left and right. It was almost poetic how the system turned him into its own points cow.

It might be greedy, but as they say, quality service comes at a premium price.

'Let's see...' he looked at the list and saw several options, each tied to a specific weapon. He chose a few to experiment with:

"These skills are good, but why are they almost useless against humans?"

[System: Host, angels are not allowed to hurt humans directly . Your second body is immune to this restriction because the system altered and removed those limitations. However, since divine energy is still a natural phenomenon in this world, it still suffers from reduced effectiveness.]

'Thank goodness,' he sighed in relief. 'I really thought I couldn't kill humans with this body.' He had almost believed that the new form was useless.

If he couldn't kill and eat humans, what would he become? That was a huge part of his identity—99% of it, in fact. The remaining 1% was just his psychotic nature.

He decided to start with the Heavenly Strike and summoned the golden sword.

It materialized in his hand, its surface gleaming with a bright, divine light.

He swung the sword through the air, feeling the divine energy flow smoothly from the blade.

The sword felt really balanced and sharp, as if it was an extension of his will.

To test its power, he aimed at a massive boulder nearby. He swung the sword with a powerful strike, and the blade sliced through the boulder as if it were made of paper.

The rock split cleanly, the two halves tumbling away as if cut by a laser.

Next, he decided to test the sword's control by cutting the rocks into smaller pieces.

SLASH!

SLASH!

SLASH!

The massive rock was gradually transformed into hundreds of small cubes, each with smooth, marbled-like cuts.

'Nice,' he nodded in satisfaction.

This weapon was in no way duller than his Skull Grinder base form, which still relied on mechanical rotors for its sharpness.

Next, he moved on to Radiant Shield.

The golden shield appeared before him, its shiny surface reflecting the sunlight.

The surface had detailed, feather-like patterns that made it look like wings about to open up. When he held the shield, it felt well-balanced and fit comfortably on his arm.

'I need to test this out,' he thought. He decided to close his eyes, return to his original body, and summon all seven of his powerful puppets, including the two hunters he had recently added to his arsenal.

He began giving them instructions and enough energy to sustain themselves. After that, he returned to his second body.

Raising his shield, he filled it with divine energy, causing it to glow and vibrate.

'Come, attack me!' he gestured.

The seven hunters took their positions, ready to use their unique elemental powers.

He had told them to condense their attacks as much as possible, which would reduce the shockwaves but make their strikes more powerful.

Each hunter held their katana, and their swords glowed with different elements. They charged together, creating a swirling mix of energy in the air.

When they were ready, they launched their combined attack.

A massive wave of elemental power shot towards him, glowing with all the colors of their energies.

Reign raised his shield, which began to shine with a brilliant golden light.

As the attack hit the shield, it started to shimmer and pulse with divine energy.

It redirected the force, and the light grew brighter as it pushed back against the attack.

Even though the attack was strong, the shield held firm and kept him safe.

He lowered the shield with a satisfied smile. 'Nice,'
