Villain Hides His True Colors Chapter 7

Keuh

Yifret slowly walked out from the dust.

Broken claws and torn fur.

Fortunately it seed to have worked, as there were traces of the explosion all over his body.

Gwaaar! Ill definitely kill you!

Yifret let out a coarse roar. His fighting spirit had beco much fiercer than before.

Perhaps a berserker ability of so kind where he grew stronger the more he was hurt.

Even so, that didnt an there was no damage.

In the past, there were heroes with similar abilities, but in the end, they had died at my hands.

In short, anyone could be killed if you beat it to death.

Between the mont he slowed down for a bit, I took a heavy machine gun out of my inventory and placed it on the ground.

Next, looking towards Yifret, I pulled the trigger.

Dudududu!

The flas emitted from the gun illuminated the dark interior.

Bullet shells constantly fell as the walls hit by the bullet shattered like a cookie.

Keu-keuk

Yifret didnt avoid my attacks. Instead, he covered his face with one arm and launched a charge.

Damn it.

I thought a heavy machine gun would work, but naturally, the fur encased in mana was difficult to penetrate.

Quickling changing my shape, I dug into the cracks of the fallen debris.

Boom!

The machine gun that had collided with Yifrets body broke into pieces like a toy. anwhile, I crawled on the ground in my liquid state and ran away.

You little rat!

I could hear the angry roar of Yifret. Once I was far away from him, I changed back and fired at him again.

Bang!

Bang!

Yifret charged forward in the hope of catching , but it was no use.

As such, I hid myself among the debris, gnawing at his health little by little.

Ill chew you alive once youre in my hands!

At so point, Yifret began to break the debris around him at random.

Boom! Boom!

Thick chunks of cent crumbled like plastic straws. Perhaps because of the added small wounds on his body, his strength seed to have grown.

As expected, a head-to-head match was dangerous.

Phase Change was a useful skill that could ignore most physical attacks, but unfortunately, attacks infused with mana couldnt be neutralized.

Where are you hiding?! Co out now!!

The cover on the ground broke one by one. There were fewer and fewer spaces for to hide.

At this rate there was no chance of winning.

Unless I knew how much mana he currently had, I couldnt just wait for him to run out of mana.

And before that, it was obvious that my location would be discovered first.

I had to make the first move and create a decisive opportunity.

Cautiously, I approached Yifret who was still breaking down the debris.

Then, when I was at a moderate distance, I imdiately threw the grenades I had stored in my inventory.

Bang! Boom!

Keeuk!

A sudden explosion erupted in his blind spot and was hit with no ti to defend against my attack.

His fur peeled and ruddy flesh was exposed.

And in the sa size as where his fur had disappeared, a gap with no mana had appeared.

It was ti.

Instead of stepping back, I rushed at him with all my might.

The shocked bastard swung his claws recklessly. Managing to avoid his attacks, I stuck like a leech to his wound.

Next

*Drain life.

I quickly absorbed his energy.

Kueaaak!

He didnt stop his attacks even in the midst of sucking his energy. With only one arm left, he clawed at his back without hesitation.

Keuk.

His back was torn and blood was constantly flowing between it. The sa was true for who was clinging onto him.

The mana infused attacks that ignored the general law of physics were tearing my body apart.

Terrible pain ca as my flesh peeled away.

However, this was a pain that I had already experienced in the first round to the point where I had grown bored of it. Just this much wasnt enough to remove .

Keuaak! Get off ! Get off you punk!

Yifret rampaged. The more he did so, the closer I stuck to his back.

It was my first and only chance. I held on with the idea that if I fell here, it would be over.

Whenever he tore my body apart, I regained my stamina by absorbing his energy.

In the end, ti was on my side.

His movents slowed down little by little. The mana that shined gradually disappeared.

And soon after, he fell to the ground.

Crash!

Keuh

I slowly swallowed his body. Through the gap where mana had disappeared, a sticky lump of flesh seeped in.

The larger the area of contact was, the faster the rate of absorption beca.

His huge body shriveled until it didnt resemble anything, and the bloodshot red eyes gradually returned to white.

T-turbak, sir

Now he was no longer even making proper sounds.

PleaseJudgnt

I completely devoured him.

It was over.

And I was sure. This ga was my victory.

All that was left now was to slowly absorb his energy until my mana recovers. The mont I tried to completely cut off his breath, suddenly, my back turned cold and I felt an ominous feeling.

What? Did I miss sothing?

My intuition was high enough to be called an ability.

Thanks to this intuition, I had overco several crises in the past, so I couldnt just ignore it.

I looked around calmly and checked again to see if there were any risks that I hadnt noticed.

Soon, the bone necklace hanging from Yifrets neck caught my eyes. Compared to his modern outfit, it felt too old.

It was suspicious

At that mont, blue light emanated from the necklace.

?!

An alarm rang in my head the mont I saw it.

Although I couldnt figure out what the purpose of the light was, I was convinced that sothing I couldnt handle was dormant there.

I hurriedly changed my shape and threw myself back.

As if it was on queue, a white breath ca out of Yifrets mouth.

Then

Crack!

Countless icicles began to pop out of his body. It gave off the appearance that his fur was made of ice.

Thiswhat the hell?

While I couldnt hide my surprise, Yifret slowly stood up.

After looking around for a mont, he opened his mouth with an expressionless face.

Who killed my lovely children?

What the hell was he saying?

Naturally, I had killed Feoria, but what does he an by children? I rember that he had only one child. Was I wrong?

Soon, a new ssage popped up in front of my eyes.

[Challenge Suspicious Supporter]

Condition: Defeat Yifret who is being supported by the Savage God Turbak.

Ti: 1 week.

Reward: 1x Random Box (High).

Savage God?

It was a concept I had never heard of before.

I thought I knew most of the things about this world, but it seed there were still things I didnt know.

It was hard to keep up with the sudden situation.

Im going to ask you again, human. Did you kill my children?

Along with the voice, the temperature of the cave began to drop sharply. Moisture that was floating inside froze and fell like snow.

I had no choice but to stare at it blankly.

Whatthe

Did this make sense?

It was unimaginable that there was a monster like this hiding among the drug dealers.

I was so speechless that I thought a dry laugh would leak from my mouth.

HaThe ga balance is ssed up.

I let out a long sigh.

* * * * * * * * * *

The Savage God Turbak.

An absolute powerhouse that was impossible for to deal with at my current level.

It was at least B-Rank or higher just by looking at its ability to control such a phenonon. I could only guess that its power was equivalent to A-Grade.

On top of thatit was a God.

In a world where Devils exist, there was nothing strange about the existence of a God, but even so, I thought this was a little too much.

I was playing in a hunting ground for beginners, and now it felt like a high level monster had suddenly stord in.

Naturally, I didnt believe that was its true form.

From my point of view, this situation seed hopeless. But in a sense, it was the sa when I had held the handgun to my head, or when I was gunned down by a machine gun, or when I was just starting out as an F-Rank.

Not only that, my Phase Change skill was completely at odds with its cold ability.

Even so, I pretended to be innocent for now.

It wasnt .

Lie.

It spoke firmly, as if the answer had already been decided. Then why the hell did it ask ?

Human. The sin you have committed will be purified by the frost.

Yifrets mouth opened wide as his words fell. White frost condensed around it and began to be drawn in.

Was he trying to blow out a lot of air?

Thatsreally dangerous.

I could tell without having to experience it. If I get hit by that attack, this ga would end right then and there.

There must be a way.

Usually, Challenges were difficult, but it had never made do sothing impossible.

On the contrary, there would be a way for to get out of the crisis.

At this mont, I quickly racked my brain. Starting with the skills I had to even the items in my inventory.

I looked for a way out by thinking of anything that might help .

And then suddenly, an idea crossed my mind.

Co to think of itThere was that.

In gas, there were sotis monsters that were set up to be unbeatable right from the start.

***

[ Translator Yasi ]

[ Proofreader Karane ]

A gimmick-type stage in which it was impossible to pass simply by fighting.

And usually in the case of such monsters, there were key items tailored just for it.

It just so happens that I had sothing that could be used.

I opened my inventory and put the item I was thinking of on the ground.

Boom!

Then

The cold air that was swirling around Yifret quickly dissipated.

And emotions began to perate his frozen eyes. Perhaps he was gradually coming to his senses.

It was as I had guessed.

According to the explanation written in the Challenge, he was currently supported by a God.

In other words, the ability he was using was the power borrowed from sothing else.

The blessing used in the demon army had a similar concept.

Recalling that ti, there was one fatal weakness to these kinds of abilities.

That was, the ability may be canceled depending on the users current ntal state.

AndIf Yifret sees this, he would never be able to keep his composure.

Sure enough, he looked at the item I had taken out and roared sorrowfully.

F-Feoria!!!

I stopped him from approaching by pointing my gun at the corpse on the ground.

Hold on, ahjussi. Stay still there.

Yifret halted on the spot. His eyes constantly shook.

Y-you!!! Wh-what are you doing? Put the gun down right now!

Dont worry. I dont have any thoughts of holding noona hostage.

O-okayIf youre a man, fair and square

Shes already dead. I dont need it in the first place.

I pulled the trigger towards the corpse.

Bang!

Noooo!!!!

Yifret fell to the ground screaming. Perhaps because his mind was shaken, the icicles surrounding his body fell off.

The effect was greater than I had expected.

You, you, youah

He lost his mind and made a beastly cry. I explained it calmly so that he could understand the situation.

Ahjussi, you dont have to get so excited. Im just confirming that shes dead.

I-Im going to tear you limb from limb!!

Yifrets eyes overturned as he kicked off the ground and lunged at . In the anti, I put another bullet into the corpse.

Bang!

Aahh! D-dont! Stop it!

He was in pain as if he had been shot. The icicles on his body fell off again.

But it still wasnt enough.

The power I felt from him had decreased a lot, but it was still dangerous.

I thought I needed to make him lose his mind a little bit more.

So I shot at the corpse.

Bang!

Bang!

.

.

.

Aahh! D-dont! P-please stop!

Finally, all of the icicles that surrounded him disappeared. Since then, I had alternated between firing at him and the corpse.

Bang!

Bang!

.

.

.

When he tried to rush at , the corpse was shot, and when he stood still, a bullet flew at him.

Like that, he slowly collapsed. I thought I could succeed if this continued.

But

Huh?

At so point, Yifret didnt respond to shooting the corpse. With a body that was completely worn out, he just glared at .

Was the effectiveness over? He opened his mouth with a cracked voice.

I just realized.

What are you talking about?

To end this painThe fact that I have to kill you.

AhJust a little bit more and it would have been over.

The strain seed to have exceeded its limits. I should have paced myself. It was my source of trouble, always wanting to finish gas quickly.

Bloody icicles began to spring out of the body that had beco a ss. Imdiately his eyes turned red as if blood was dripping.

You killed my brothers.

Yifret walked to at a speed that was neither fast nor slow.

Andeven took away my reason to live.

Large ice pillars resembling a coffin ford wherever he stepped.

On the pillars were reflections of the bodies that had fallen.

So

Yifrets words echoed as it collided with the ceiling of the cave.

Together.

His voice, which had turned into an echo, resonated grimly like the chorus of the dead.

Lets go to hell.

Before I knew it, the Yifret in front of had turned into a huge wolf.

Bloody ice which covers the whole body, sharp teeth like icicles, and claws that were harder than ever.

The way he looked now was simply like an ice monster.

Enough is enough. Die.

A cold and sinister power was drawn into Yifrets mouth.

The air swirled like a sharp knife, and the sound of wind resembling a jet engine filled the cave.

HmmDoesnt that look really dangerous?

I wasnt sure what he was preparing, but at a first glance, it looked like I would die if I got hit.

However, I had no intention of ending this ga yet. It was a ga that I had just started again, so I couldnt die here.

It seed it was ti to use that.

I took out the second item I had in mind from my inventory.

Wuung!

A rhythmic sound reached my ears.

I lifted the chainsaw I had taken out of my inventory so that Yifret could see it well.

Then little by little, I lowered my arms as the chainsaw scratched the ground next to Feorias corpse.

Fla scattered from the fast rotating saw blade. I was in a close position where it would touch the corpse if I moved a little more to the side.

What do you think? Should we continue?

Seeing the scene, Yifret hardened as if he was a lump of ice.

Then, he opened his mouth wide as if to tell sothing, but no sound ca out.

In the end, he couldnt say anything.

It was over.

I threw a handgun at Yifret.

Thud

You know what to do, right?

Yifret looked at the handgun that fell near him.

In the next mont, he slowly lowered his head and picked up the handgun.

There was no longer a monster made of ice or a swirling storm.

Only a beast standing in a complete ss.

In a completely dry voice, Yifret spoke.

Y-youdemon

He pulled the trigger without hesitation.

Bang!

Like that, Yifret died.

* * * * * * * * * *

After Yifrets death, the ice inside the cave began to lt quickly. As a result, water filled the cave and it reached my ankles.

My shoes are all wet.

I beca very annoyed at the thought of having to go down the mountain path in wet shoes.

Was everything planned by the Savage God for this mont?

If so, I would like to say that its plan was successful. How did it know that I hate being grimy?

Ah, but it was still fun.

Although there was the mishap of my shoes becoming wet at the last minute, it was very satisfying simply in terms of content.

It felt refreshing to feel like a newbie after a long ti, and it was quite fun to kill my father who I had missed in my last life.

And

Did it say its na was Turbak?

Maybe until now I had only scratched the surface of this ga.

Even up to the last mont of the previous round I didnt know that there was a Savage God.

What would it have been like if I had t it in my heyday? Would I have felt this gap then too?

It was hard to know.

Honestly, my skills were so poor right now that even my level couldnt be properly estimated.

But one thing was for sure.

There was still content left to enjoy in this world.

Suddenly, my heart began to pound. I thought there would be no dull monts in this round.

I knew it would be fun.

And at that mont, a pleasant notification ca to my ears.

Ding!

Oh, I forgot.

Diligently playing all day long, it was ti for the rewards.

I opened my status window and countless ssages began to cover my eyes.
