Villain: Ultimate Mutation System in the Alternate World - Chapter 499

Chapter 499: Deadliest Form Part 2
“I saw something—a terrifying monster!” Kaelin exclaimed, her voice trembling as she rushed to explain.

Panic radiated from her like a child who had just seen a ghost.

He raised his eyebrows. “You did?”

“Yes! It was really scary! Its face… oh, it was the ugliest thing I had ever seen! It had these glowing red eyes that looked creepy.”

Reign felt a surge of pride for his original body. Well, except for the ugly parts—those were more like badass features.

Still, he chose not to correct her. After all, his true body was his secret weapon.

‘But I must admit, my original body’s skill is powerful,’ he mused, surveying the death and destruction around him.

The penetrating power and speed of his laser attack had obliterated the demon kings as if they were ordinary humans.

No matter how strong they were, it was useless if they couldn’t dodge his attacks.

‘I wonder if my original body could contend with Lilith if I reached Peak Demon God level.’

Having absorbed all those corpses, he gained several levels and reached the peak of the Demon King rank.

He had started at the beginner level but now wielded peak-level power.

Once he finished allocating his benefits from earlier, he could power up again—perhaps even reach the De-Facto Demon God level.

His De-Facto rank would be many times stronger than Vinsh’s, as their base powers were different.

Both were close to reaching that level, but Reign was closer.

With that thought, he flew away to find a suitable hiding place.

Once there, he unsummoned Kaelin and cloaked himself in dark glass to avoid detection.

After ensuring he was concealed, he returned to his original body.

He began examining all the benefits he had received, beyond just the experience points.

Among them were high-class mutation materials, especially valuable because they came from Demon Kings.

The system organized the materials for him to review, automatically sacrificing any redundant organs in the process.

This streamlined the list, ensuring that only the most valuable and unique organs remained for further consideration.

Spectral Eyes

Illusory Detection: Enables the host to reveal the true nature of their surroundings, piercing illusions and deceptions created by enemies or environmental manipulation.

Illusory Reflection: Creates a brief reflective barrier that can deflect some magical illusions back at their origin, turning the enemy’s tricks against them.

Storm Demon Vocal Cord

Enhanced Elemental Control: Provides refined mastery over storm-related elements, enabling precise manipulation of weather patterns and elemental energy.

Weather Control: Allows the host to summon and direct powerful lightning storms at will, striking down on a very large area.

Demon-Spider Silk Glands

Web Creation: Creates intricate and durable webs to trap and immobilize enemies, effectively controlling the battlefield.

Web Shield: Generates a protective barrier of silk that absorbs damage from incoming attacks, offering temporary invulnerability for the host and allies.

These were the only three mutation organs the system identified as non-redundant and capable of expanding his arsenal.

While the other organs had unique strengths, they mirrored abilities he already possessed.

‘Everything is good, but the Spectral Eyes really stand out. I already have something similar in my second body, but now my original has it covered as well.’

This was excellent news, as he was already unmatched in physical attacks and defense. Anything that could protect him from mind attacks and illusions was a welcome addition.

Next, he checked his level, which had increased by a lot. Even his skill and attribute points had climbed because those demon kings were filled with negative energy.

At this rate, he only needed to destroy a couple more cities to reach the minimum level required for his rank-up to Demon God.

‘Speaking of cities,’ he trailed off.

Looking at the data, he realized that one demon king provided as much benefit as an entire Tier 4 city.

This highlighted the immense value of farming powerful targets.

It was faster and easier; the only downside was that finding these powerful targets was challenging.

If not for the recent incident, he doubted he would have encountered so many demon kings in one place.

‘I can’t believe how far I’ve come. To think I would actually treat demon kings like they’re just regular mobs,’ he chuckled, finding the situation amusing.

In reality, facing multiple demon kings directly would be foolish and suicidal.

The only reason he had defeated those five was that they weren’t very strong for their rank and he had caught them off guard.

If they had been given a chance to fight, they could have wiped him out instantly, as each of their skills was like a weapon of mass destruction.

His best bet now was to act like an assassin, taking down demon kings from a distance before they even knew what hit them.

It might seem like cheating, but who cared?

Since he got the system, he had been bending the rules already.

He wasn’t some noble hero who would feel embarrassed about using such tactics.

In fact, he found it exhilarating!

The thought of taking down these prideful demons—who had spent their lives clawing their way to the top—was hilarious.

Here they were, powerful beings moving around like they owned the place, only to be picked off by someone casually camping and sniping them.

‘I don’t have anything to do with this place anymore. I should start farming some corrupted beings and get my third body,’ he thought, shifting his focus to his next priority: obtaining Meta-power abilities.

Unlike his Demonic and Angel bodies, which needed to evolve to become unrivaled, a single Meta-human with an outrageous ability could turn the tide of battle in an instant.

Even Lilith, who had likely surpassed the Demon God level, was forced to retreat from that blonde kid.

This showed just how tricky Meta-humans could be in a fight, making them a dangerous threat not to be underestimated.
