Villain: Ultimate Mutation System in the Alternate World

For a moment, silence filled the air until—

"We pick none!" Will Razer responded calmly as he half drew his weapon. He refused to let one of his own die.

With that, lightning burst forth from the unveiled blade, crackling with energy.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Your adventure continues at empire

Just the simple act of revealing his blade had already eclipsed Jayden full power many times over, highlighting the enormous gap between them.

Reign couldn't help but imagine what would happen if the five hunters activated Overload.

He had a feeling that even a peak Demon Lord like him would find it difficult to combat them all at once, particularly if they worked together and coordinated their strikes.

In his real body, he could completely ignored their attacks without sustaining damage, but his second one still had many weaknesses. Among those shortcomings was durability.

Seeing their leader's action, Miyu sighed and followed suit, drawing her sword halfway through.

She didn't like how things were unfolding, but with Will Razer in charge of the group, she was unable to speak up.

She summoned a deadly wind around her. It was not the usual wide air current, wild and uncontrolled; instead, it resembled a gentle breeze, demonstrating her level of control.

If Reign's senses weren't so sharp, he wouldn't have detected it at all.

The other three hunters quickly joined in. One of them unleashed a blue flame, growing hotter and more intense as it danced around his blade.

Reign could tell that the blue flames were anything but ordinary, and he knew he had to be cautious not to get burned by it.

Another inhaled deeply, and his entire body transformed into a shimmering gem like texture, a technique that left Reign momentarily amused. It was the first time he had seen someone utilize breathing techniques in such a way.

But when thinking about how Satoshi's runes worked, it didn't seem entirely impossible. He himself possessed a rune that manipulated mass in his original body, though he seldom used it, as he was already quite strong.

The last hunter, the arrogant one who had called him a demon, was engulfed by a thick mist. The mist swirled around him, flowing outward and making it difficult to see his real body. There was even some distortion.

When the lineup was complete, Reign finally recognized how unique and different these hunters were from those he had encountered before. They were in a league of their own.

Will Razer raised his katana high, its blade gleaming under the sunlight.

With a firm stance, he turned the blade's tip downward and plunged it into the ground, the impact resonating with power. "Thunderbird Breathing Technique... Lightning Zone!"

Out of nowhere, blue arcs of lightning erupted from the katana, sending high-voltage chains of electricity coursing through the ground.

The electric energy then spread outwards, obliterating the clones that were surrounding them in one attack.

Reign's let out a laugh under his mask. He had severely underestimated the power of a single-digit hunter.

Will Razer had transcended the realm of humans; that single attack was on par with that of a Demon Lord at the beginner stage.

When the dust settled, all 10,000 clones had been completely eradicated, leaving nothing but scorched ground in their place.

Reign, on the other hand, stood casually amid the still smoking ground.

The scattered lightning danced around him but didn't hurt him at all.

He had faced worse attacks before, and this was nothing more than a minor annoyance.

However, the issue was that the hunters realized the truth: all those clones had been just for show.

With that understanding, their fear began to fade, and they no longer took him as seriously.

Will Razer exchanged a glance with Miyu, and they both understood what they should do — Capture and interrogate the enemy.

Reign noticed the change in their demeanor and felt a twinge of annoyance.

"What's the matter? Don't tell me you think you've figured me out with that attack," he said, feigning nonchalance as he crossed his arms.

"Yeah, we see you for what you really are. Just someone hiding behind tricks and illusions. " One of the hunters sneered in contempt.

Without missing a beat, Reign's staff stretched rapidly, heading straight for the hunter before he could even flinch.

But just before it could reach its target, a sudden force collided with the staff, changing its trajectory mid-air.

It was Miyu, using her control over the wind to redirect the attack.

Reign didn't stop. He raised his staff high and swung it down with more strength, channeling energy that was so intense even the wind couldn't change its path.

"Vermilion Flame Breathing Technique!… Blazing Barrage" the hunter with the blue flames roared.

BOOOOM!

BOOOOM!

BOOOOM!

Explosions after explosions rang out as the barrage of flames collided with the staff.

Each strike unleashed shockwaves that rippled through the air, producing a sound reminiscent of a battalion of tanks firing in unison.

For a moment, the two wrestled, each one trying to overpower the other.

Unfortunately for the hunter, Reign was no longer in no mood to play.

"EXPAND!" he shouted, and his staff suddenly grew fifty times thicker, its momentum accelerating with frightening intensity.

The sheer size and power of the weapon pushed down on the hunter's futile attacks, forcing him to struggle harder to maintain his ground.

Realizing they were no match for this sudden surge in power, they were finally forced to consider retreat.

"We need to get out of here!" Miyu yelled, her voice barely audible over the chaos.

They had thought Reign was all about tricks, like an illusion-type demon, but they were severely mistaken.

His attack power was extraordinary, leading them all to the same conclusion: they were up against someone at the level of a Peak Demon Lord—no, someone even more powerful.

When the massive staff made contact with the ground, it sent a powerful shockwaves through the clearing.

BOOOOOOM!

The force caused the forest to shudder, resulting in a mini earthquake that showed just how much power that blow had.
