Why Should I Stop Being a Villainchapter 296: is it over?

296 Is it over?

Xarax and Dexter charged together to corner the monster, while Osbert and Declan were doing the same with another one.

The Watson Family's SSS Rank Hunter also took to the air as he started looking for his chance to strike.

Killing an SSS Rank Existence wasn't an easy thing at all.

One small mistake and one of them could get injured, and despite the result of this battle, their injuries would make them weaker than all the other SSS Rank Hunters.

None of the people present here trusted each other, and all of them were fighting while making sure that their guard was up the whole time.

It was the only way they could work together, but right now this became a major struggle as, to kill the two monsters, they needed to take a risk.

Silvus was the only one here who was ready to take the risk, but he was already busy maintaining the countless Spell Circles that were draining and destroying the Black Dome.

Clashes after clashes took place, and the monsters kept dodging, attacking a few times if any one of them made a single mistake.

Monsters, unlike humans, weren't afraid of hurting themselves in order to feed on their prey, and these puppet monsters that were made from the power of the Peak SSS Rank Monster, or to say they were part of its power, weren't even considering the attacks of the SSS Rank Hunters to be harmful, unless it was aimed at their burning eyes.

The bluish flame was something that the monsters didn't let any of them get close enough to.

But as the Black Dome was losing its strength, these monsters weren't enough to endure the attacks of so many SSS Rank Hunters.

"Huff, huff," Xarax was breathing heavily as he blocked the claws of the monster and backed away.

"Don't get tired, old man," Dexter said as he went past Xarax and smashed his hammer towards the monster.

"Who are you calling old, dammit?" Xarax replied as he stepped forward and rushed between Dexter and the monster.

There was a question that would come to everyone, and it was about the rankings of SSS Rank hunters individually.

But there was no correct answer; nobody knew about each other's true strength, as each SSS Rank Hunter never revealed their trump cards when they fought together.

Just like Nathan hid the fact about the Rune of Eirdin, each of them held something that wasn't known to anyone in the world.

Apart from Silvus and Farnus, who were considered the most powerful out of all SSS Rank Hunters, mostly because of the time they lived.

They were the oldest of all SSS Rank Hunters.

Xarax pushed the monster backward, and in an instant, the Watson Family's SSS Rank Hunter appeared behind it, his sword aimed at the head with incredible speed.

He was looking for an opportunity, and he found it, but the monster's burning flame eyes turned to the side as it tilted backward.

Their body structure didn't have any sort of rigidness, and they could move at almost all angles.

It made their ability to react much faster than any other SSS Rank Monsters.

Unlike a gigantic monster, which had destructive power but was easier to hurt and find openings toward.

But the sword passed through the empty air, leaving a mark, and it was the unique ability of the Watson Family.

Something that made the SSS Rank Hunter of the Watson Family responsible for Armax Prison.

A line of sorts appeared in the air as he kept swinging his sword at the monster, not stopping at all.

The monster kept dodging and attacking, but the lines kept appearing in the empty air, one by one.

Suddenly he stopped, and the lines started vibrating.

Countless invisible lines that he had made during their battle started becoming visible, as Xarax looked around.

'What a unique ability,' he thought, despite seeing it many times before.

"Hundred Eyes," the Watson Family's SSS Rank Hunter muttered.

As he closed his own eyes and charged towards the monster.

His speed increased, and his swordsmanship became very aggressive. Something that could be called reckless by some, but those who knew about the Watson Family's bloodline ability knew that it wasn't a reckless way of fighting.

Spreading their senses in the space around them, an ability to dominate the space around them if they could manage to mark the area around them with their mana.

It was something much more complex than the Mana Sense that Asher used, but the Watsons used it in exchange for their senses.

In that space, if you weren't way faster or stronger than him, it wasn't possible to surprise attack him at all.

Xarax entered the battle once again, while Dexter went towards Osbert and Declan, who were clashing with the monster.

Meanwhile, Farnus was charging and nullifying the black element that was all around the monster.

"HAAAAAH," Farnus cried out as he swung his spear downwards, and an arc of devastating lightning went downwards.

The monster barely dodged it, but it burnt half of its face, revealing a black stone inside its head once again.

It started healing, but its anger began to rise as well, and it was visible as the monster became much more aggressive towards Farnus.

The lightning around Farnus kept becoming stronger, little by little, as the effect of the Dome was disappearing. With the movement of his spear, the lightning itself moved in the way that Farnus desired.

A control over an element that could even put mages to shame — that was the level Farnus was at. And his control was similar or even much stronger than the control that the monster had over the black element.

All because of his rune, which played a major part in Farnus becoming the strongest SSS Rank Hunter in the world.

Farnus's eyes traveled all over as he kept pushing the monster back, giving it no chance to even think about anything.

With Silvus's spell all over the Black Dome, the monster had lost the ability to hide in the Black Dome or even run because the moment it did, it could feel that Farnus's spear would impale its head.

The moment one of these two showed weakness was the moment they would die, and both of them understood that.

And Farnus kept getting more aggressive, as just like the monster, even his time for using the Golden Lightning Aura was running out.

Their clashes kept sending mana waves, which were even greater than the ones that all other SSS Rank Hunters were producing.

Crack...

The cracks around the Black Dome became even bigger as the Monster became even more enraged.

'Almost,' Farnus thought as he felt the monster becoming a bit slower than before.

Bam.. Bam...

Bam

Bam Bam

His spear connected with the monster, with each strike getting stronger than before, as Farnus kept changing the direction his spear would strike from.

A complex art, but it was something possible only because he possessed the Lightning Element Affinity.

While Farnus was about to strike again, he noticed the Silver Spell becoming completely grey, and finally, it happened.

The Entrapment was broken as black energy started descending down like fumes, and the monster roared so loudly as its black energy started running rampant.

It was so much that even Farnus stepped back as the Hunters below were shielded with the Shield that Dexter created with Runes, and Silvus was the one who converted one Spell Circle above their heads.

He wanted to isolate the monsters from the Peak SSS Rank Monster even now.

And all the others kept pushing the monsters.

The fight wasn't over, and it finally entered its last moment as the monster saw sparks of golden lightning from the cloud of black energy that surrounded its vision.

In the next moment, it saw a spear coming its way, towards the Black Stone.

And the old man became visible again, with lightning wrapped all around him and his eyes focused on the monster.

The eyes that carried a tint of anger, frustration.

"Die," Farnus said as he pierced the black stone.

But at the last moment, Farnus's eyes changed as he finally realized.

His grip on his spear became loose as he felt a wave of frustration boiling over him.

But the puppets below started burning with blue fire suddenly.

Suddenly, Silvus shouted something, but Farnus didn't hear it.

With the truth in front of him, Farnus was holding his anger and frustration inside of him.

Suddenly the black stone that had almost shattered melted into liquid form as the monsters below exploded, and two flames appeared in the middle of the sky with black liquid in the center.

"FARNUS, MOVE!!" Silvus shouted, amplifying his voice with mana.

Farnus's eyes looked below as his eyes went wide.

He ran in the opposite direction as soon as possible, and so did the other SSS Rank Hunters.

The mana core of two SSS Rank Monsters, mixed into one, was about to explode.

The power behind that explosion was enough to kill even an SSS Rank Hunter.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

All of them turned as they unleashed their mana out of their core and formed a mana shield.

A mana shield to stop this explosion from destroying half of Belvoria.
