Transmigrating as an Extra Third-Rate Villain - Chapter 166

Chapter 166: Chapter 166:Ranking Up [2]
As the bang reverberated through the carriage, an angry Kevin furiously asked.

“So, which idiot decided this was a good time to enter a dream, then?”

“…”

“…”

I didn’t know who was more stupid, the person for deciding to enter a dream while we were all exhausted in a damn carriage, or Kevin for asking.

I mean, are you just going to say that it’s you if he asks?

No, you’re gone stay silent and lie!

Maybe that’s just me, though…these guys are the heroes of the world; surely, they’ll be honest and admit their mistake if they were the ones who entered the dream!

“…”

Yeah, never mind, this world is doomed.

Seeing the rest of the group start to point fingers, I continued closing my eyes and enjoyed the last few moments of relaxation.

Of course, these fingers would end up pointed at me in the very end.

“…only the person who entered the dream would say something like that.”

“oh really, Liam? What the hell do you think someone would say if it wasn’t them.”

“…not what you said.”

Ignoring the bickering between Kevin and Liam, I was about to pretend to suddenly wake up from the dream.

However, before I could even open my eyes, Lily’s stern voice echoed throughout the carriage.

“Does it really matter who entered the dream? We’ll are fine, and we also… just advanced to C-ranks!”

Oh yeah… I was a C-rank now, wasn’t I?

Opening a tiny sliver of my eye, I carefully maneuvered my hands so as not to be seen by the main cast.

Raising my hand, at last, I stared at the new and improved stat menu that was sitting in front of me.

Completely ignoring the increase in stats and my useful new skill, I stared at the three question marks next to my new Dragon’s Will ability.

Was this system playing games with me?

Why the hell was it giving me an ability… without even telling me what it was!?

What the hell was I supposed to do with the information!?

I couldn’t just test everything in the world until I finally learned the ability, so… right now, it was essentially useless.

“Dragon’s Blood.”

As the word “blood” echoed throughout my head, a faint memory played in my mind.

Maybe it had something to do with that puddle of blood I saw before I was removed from the dream…?

Turning my attention to the skills menu, I was surprised to see that the usefulness of my new skill was actually quite nice.

I could paralyze something with my serpent slash, make them lose their sight with a shadow cage, and now, finally, blind them with my Sky Flash.

What couldn’t I do at this point?

Finishing examining my new and improved stats menu, I peered out of the corner of my eye across the room.

Alya, Ruby, and Irene were eagerly checking their stats menu as they, like me, had forgotten about their dream improving it.

Ruby had a slight smile on her face, while both Irene and Alya were visibly excited as their smiles were plastered all over their face.

You’re welcome for that, by the way!

Closing my eyes once again, I decided that was the perfect time for my performance!

As I opened my eyes a bit, my mouth slowly opening, I was once again interrupted as Liam finished looking at his stats menu with a smile and asked.

“So… Lily and Alya, care to explain what happened back there?”

“…”

Seeing Alya slightly uncomfortable, Lily replied.

“From the start… I noticed something was off with Alya. I was only able to confirm it when Ruby pointed out her weird hand gestures to me.”

Staring at Ruby for a moment before looking away, Lily continued.

“From there, I was able to confirm that Alya was not nervous or anything, but in fact, acting abnormal for no reason. Then, I recalled how Alya had mentioned briefly that she had become contracted with the spirit.”

“That, combined with Alya’s abnormal behavior, easily led me to the conclusion that something external was affecting Alya… and the only external thing was the existence of the spirit.”

Scratching his head, Liam further questioned.

“But… didn’t you say the spirit was inside Zach at the end?”

Is that my cue?

Leaning back in the seat, I silently stretched my hands and slowly opened my eyes, acting as if I had just been awakened.

” *PFFT* ”

However, as my eyelids popped up, I heard a small chuckle escape the mouth of someone across the room.

Was I that obvious..?

Lily, being one of the first to notice that my eyes were open, stopped mid-explanation and stared at me, prompting the rest of the carriage to follow suit.

But, just as I was about to speak, I felt a sudden pressure on my right shoulder.

*THUD*

Slowly shifting my head to the right, I saw Zach’s head resting on my shoulder, his eyelids completely closed, revealing his dark eyebags, and his mouth entirely closed.
