Maybe I really am a Villian

Room 2

The Lust Demon looked toward the crimson phantom with fear.

The killing intent radiating from it had completely frozen her body, and she didn’t dare to move.

Then, suddenly, the phantom dissipated into thin air.

The terrifying killing intent that had been pressing against her also vanished, but the feeling of it still remained in her mind.

It had only been killing intent and hadn’t physically harmed her, yet simply feeling such an overwhelming intent was enough to leave her deeply frightened.

She slowly turned her attention toward Asher’s vessel, the one who had manifested the phantom.

She looked at him with a mixture of fear and wariness.

Asher’s vessel simply glanced toward the place where the phantom had disappeared before looking back at the Lust Demon.

Then he said calmly, with a thoughtful expression,

"It’s not really useful in battle, but it really is useful for scaring useless, weak demons like you."

The Lust Demon’s expression became even more unpleasant, but she didn’t dare respond.

Asher then turned toward the door of Room 2.

He raised his hand and summoned a sphere of mana.

The sphere disappeared from his hand and instantly appeared beside the massive gate.

BOOM!

The mana sphere struck the gate and destroyed it, leaving a large hole through which someone could easily pass.

After creating a path to the outside, Asher looked back toward the Lust Demon.

"Don’t waste any more time. Now go and kill some humans, or maybe try to escape from here if you can before they manage to trap you again."

After saying this, Asher’s vessel vanished from the room and returned to where his other vessels were gathered,leaving the Lust Demon alone inside Room 2.

The Lust Demon remained silent for several moments.

She looked toward the destroyed gate and then toward the place where Asher had disappeared.

The Lust Demon finally moved outside the room through the opening Asher had just created.

However, the moment she stepped out, she found someone standing directly in front of her.

It was Ravena.

She had reached the area after sensing the terrifying killing intent that had suddenly appeared throughout the facility.

Dominique had already sensed Ravena approaching, so she wasn’t surprised when the Noble Vampire appeared in front of her.

As soon as Ravena stopped in front of her, Dominique gave a slight bow and spoke in a respectful, formal tone.

"I greet you, Lady Ravena. I never thought I would meet you here. We all believed that you had died during your battle against the Void Reaper."

Dominique slowly raised her head and looked toward Ravena’s face.

Even after being imprisoned for so many years, Ravena’s appearance remained striking.

Dominique then continued,

"But it seems we were wrong. You are still alive, and you’re still as beautiful as ever."

Ravena looked at the female demon for a moment.

Her expression remained calm, but there was a trace of confusion in her crimson eyes.

She clearly didn’t recognize the demon standing in front of her.

After a brief silence, Ravena simply asked,

"Who are you?"

Dominique didn’t show any disappointment at being forgotten.

Instead, she maintained her respectful attitude and answered in the same formal tone,

"I am Dominique Vaelgrim."

Ravena simply nodded.

The name didn’t seem to bring back any memories, but she didn’t question it further.

Instead, her attention shifted toward the area behind Dominique.

She could still faintly sense the traces of the terrifying killing intent that had spread through the facility earlier.

Ravena then asked,

"Where is the thing that was radiating that intense killing intent just a moment ago?"

Dominique answered without hesitation.

"It was created by a strange being that appeared to possess the body of a demon, but it was clearly something else."

She paused for a moment before continuing.

"That strange being was also the one who deactivated my restraints and allowed me to escape."

Ravena’s eyes narrowed slightly after hearing this.

She could already tell that Dominique was referring to the same strange existence she had encountered inside Room 1.

Dominique continued looking at Ravena respectfully, while Ravena remained silent for a moment, seemingly trying to understand exactly what kind of existence could possess a demon’s body while carrying such strange abilities.

Ravena didn’t think about it any further.

She simply turned toward the direction of the battlefield and spoke to Dominique in a calm but serious tone.

"Let’s move toward where the battle has started again. We don’t have much time. We have to kill everyone here before the reinforcements arrive, and then we need to escape from this place and return to our continent."

After saying this, Ravena’s body suddenly transformed into a stream of blood.

The stream of blood shot forward through the corridor, rapidly moving toward the battlefield.

From that direction, the sounds of battle had already started echoing through the facility again. The fighting had resumed shortly after the strange crimson phantom Asher had manifested disappeared, and the previously silent section was once again filled with explosions and powerful mana fluctuations.

Dominique watched Ravena leave for a moment before following her.

She also moved toward the battlefield without wasting any more time.

By now, the other demons had already reached the battlefield as well.

Ravena and Dominique were the last ones to arrive.

Meanwhile, in the Corpse Storage Room

All of Asher’s vessels had now returned to the corpse storage room, except for the one that had been killed by Ravena.

The remaining vessels stood together in the center of the room.

There were now 53 vessels left.

Without wasting any more time, all of them simultaneously began breaking through to the Master Rank.

The moment the breakthrough started, the already-low mana density in the surrounding area began changing.

Mana from the nearby environment started rapidly flowing toward their bodies.

The amount of mana being absorbed continued increasing as the vessels pushed themselves toward the next rank.

At the same time, the space surrounding them began behaving strangely.
