Maybe I really am a Villian

Snapping out of his thoughts, Solarius spoke up, his voice raised in a demanding tone. "Edward, what are you doing here? This territory is not under your authority. You have no right to be here."

Edward ignored Solarius entirely, treating him as though he were nothing more than a barking dog. He maintained his steady focus on the environment for a moment longer before muttering under his breath, "So she really was here. The information was correct, after all."

Both Solarius and Cassie caught the words. The moment they heard the word "information," their expressions darkened, instantly overcome with tension and dread—each for their own distinct reasons.

Solarius demanded in a rushed, anxious tone, "Edward, what are you talking about?"

Edward still gave no reply. In the next instant, he vanished from sight. Before Solarius could even process the movement, a fist materialized right before his face, striking him squarely on the nose. The heavy blow sent Solarius flying backward through the air. However, before his airborne body could travel far, space warped—his body vanished and reappeared directly in front of Edward, who was now standing precisely where Solarius had been a split second prior.

Without hesitation, Edward delivered a second swift punch directly to the exact same spot, shattering Solarius’s nose and leaving him bleeding profusely.

Solarius was thrown back once more, but this time his body did not vanish. Halting his backwards momentum mid-air, he touched his bleeding face and glared at Edward with pure fury. Caught completely off guard by the of the instant assault, he had been unable to react to the initial punch. Now, fully alert and on guard, he bared his teeth.

"Edward, what is the meaning of this?!" Solarius snarled, his voice laced with rage. "Are you tired of living? How dare you attack me?"

Edward stared back at Solarius for a quiet moment. Then, vanishing once more, he reappeared directly in front of Solarius’s face, his voice cool and indifferent: "Like this."

He threw another punch. Solarius instinctively attempted to dodge and retreat, but the surrounding space compressed violently around him, trapping him in place. The strike landed precisely where the previous two had, shattering his nose once again.

Solarius was sent flying backward once again, but he quickly regained control and came to a complete stop. The instant he stabilized himself, he released his aura with tremendous force, causing the surrounding space to tremble slightly under the pressure of his overwhelming energy.

After being struck yet again, Solarius finally stopped holding back. His entire body suddenly began transforming, his form expanding as brilliant light energy erupted from within him. In mere moments, he transformed into a gigantic being made entirely of radiant light, resembling the incarnation of a Sun God.

The enormous figure looked down at Edward, his presence radiating immense power and intensity. However, Edward remained completely calm. He simply stood there and looked at Solarius without any emotion on his face, as if the transformation happening before him wasn’t even worth his attention.

Then, without saying a single word, Edward raised his hand slightly. Two enormous giants made entirely of mana suddenly materialized around him. Each giant towered over the battlefield and held a massive blade in its hand, standing on either side of Edward as if they were his personal guardians.

The two mana giants remained completely still, their enormous blades ready for battle. Their presence alone created an oppressive atmosphere around Edward. Yet Edward himself continued standing calmly between them, his expression unchanged as he looked directly at the gigantic Solarius.

Cassie, who had been observing the entire clash with a confused and surprised expression, finally couldn’t remain silent any longer. She looked between Edward and Solarius, clearly unable to understand why the situation had escalated so suddenly.

"Edward, what are you doing? Why are you fighting each other?" Cassie asked, her voice carrying both confusion and concern as she tried to understand what was happening between the two powerful beings.

Edward slowly turned his gaze towards Cassie. The moment his eyes met hers, Cassie felt a sudden chill run throughout her entire body. She instinctively became tense, unable to explain why such a simple look from Edward had caused such a powerful feeling of fear.

Edward stared at her for a moment before finally speaking in his usual calm and emotionless tone. "What fighting? I am not fighting. I am just making sure that a dog doesn’t bark while I am thinking about something."

He paused for a brief moment, his expression remaining completely indifferent. Then he continued, "I hate dogs barking and disturbing me while I am thinking. It’s annoying, and I don’t like unnecessary noise."

Cassie stared at Edward with an expression full of complete disbelief. She couldn’t believe what she had just heard. Her eyes shifted towards Solarius, who was currently standing in his enormous form of pure light energy.

Solarius, meanwhile, had heard every single word.

His enormous body, resembling the incarnation of a Sun God, suddenly became even more intense as his aura erupted violently around him. His eyes burned with anger as he stared directly at Edward.

A dog?

He had actually called him a dog.

After everything that had just happened, that insult was the final thing that pushed Solarius beyond his patience. His pride couldn’t allow him to simply ignore such humiliation. Without saying another word, Solarius immediately launched himself towards Edward.

The gigantic being of light moved with incredible speed, his enormous form surging forward like a blazing star. The ground beneath him shook from the force of his movement as he raised his power and prepared to attack Edward directly.

Edward, however, simply watched Solarius approach. There was still no fear in his eyes, no anger,just maybe a the slightest hint of excitement,while the two enormous mana giants beside him tightened their grip on their blades,Both giants simultaneously raised their massive swords and then swung them downward, slashing towards Solarius’s enormous figure with tremendous force.
