DOOMED TO BE A VILLAIN

Chapter 14 CHAPTER 14: DEALING WITH AN ANNOYING DOG



After the great cataclysm, there were a bunch of humans that got blessed when they went into the towers that had appeared during the cataclysm, gaining powers that had surpassed their imagination and they used this power to get humanity back on the right track.

What they did not know was that the blessing they had gotten for free was not free for everyone… frankly speaking, they were given some sort of newbie package of sorts, as others that came after them were able to get blessings as well, but with a catch...

The newly blessed ones would have to activate their blessings personally, unfortunately, the materials needed to activate the "blessing of the cataclysm" were very rare and could only be found in dangerous places and by killing rare and dangerous monsters.

As for how they knew this information, well that was what was stated on the status screen that mysteriously appeared to the humans that had gotten "blessings of the cataclysm", thus only the rich and/or the powerful were able to acquire and access these materials and the distinction between the first awakeners who already had a stable organization, and the new awakeners grew.

Thus, it was agreed that once a year, every ten-year-old would gather at the towers and undergo a blessing of the cataclysm ceremony where each of them would receive their blessings, and those with higher ranked blessings or strategically useful blessings will be recruited by the already existing organizations and great families and would be helped to activate their blessings, but this opportunity wasn't meant for all.

Out of the human population, only about 30 percent of the total population would get a blessing, and out of that thirty percent, only about 10 percent of the blessings would be high-ranking or strategically useful, thus only ten percent or less of the children would get to have their blessings activated.

The combative blessings are split into 3 major types; The Weaponizers whose blessings are in form of a weapon they can manifest, The Elementals who could control various elements of nature, and The Transmorphers who got powers with beast characteristics and could even later transform fully into those beasts.

All three groups generally had three power levels,

The Weaponizers - Aura, Aura blade, and Domain,

The Elementals - Gaseous Mana, Liquid Mana, and Mana Zone,

The Transmorphers - Bestiality, Possession, and Full Transformation.

There is another realm after these three power levels called "Awakening".

***--------------------------*********

Davies swept a hand through his hair, fully exposing his handsome but currently extremely frightening face due to the total lack of emotions present on it as he looked at Joshua who was using the bestiality form of his blessing.

"Scarlet Flame Tiger Beast mode," Joshua growled with slight steam coming from the corners of his mouth as he finished his slight transformation. His fingernails had sharpened into black claws and his canines could be seen protruding slightly from his lips, thin white fur with black stripes had grown over his forearm and biceps and the temperature around him began to rise.

"Maybe after spending a few weeks looking at your broken face in the hospital mirror, you'd come around and think better about accepting the family's proposal," Joshua growled as he began to walk towards Davies haughtily.

"... Man, you people really look down on me that much?" a slight smile of surprise appeared on Davies's face as he heard Joshua talking big.

"You may have been able to escape my previous attacks, but now that I've been forced to use this form, there's no place for you to run," Joshua said, still talking haughtily.

"... well, discovery requires experimentation, so let's test that theory," Davies said as he stretched out his right arm as if to grasp something from midair and formed an ice sword that he took a tight grasp of, as other ice shards began to form behind him.

Davies waved his left arm toward Joshua's direction, sending the ice shards at Joshua before running after the ice shards he just sent. Joshua quickly reacted to the attack by sending mana to his claws and sending a claw-shaped attack formed of flames at Davies's attack of ice shards.

The attacks collided and the fire melted the ice sending a wave of steam into the surroundings.

The steam wave suddenly burst apart as Davies's ice sword clashed against Joshua's claw, Joshua tried to push Davies's sword away, but Davies's arm stayed firm, not giving the slightest chance for Joshua to use his raw power to push him away.

Joshua quickly sent mana to his claws again, heating them and beginning to cut through Davies's ice sword. Joshua looked up at Davies's face expecting to see alarm and fear, but all he met was a blank stare that didn't seem to care that his weapon was being cut through.

Joshua's claw finally cut through Davies's ice sword, but Davies used that moment when Joshua's arm was swinging forward after cutting his sword and left the sword, swiftly twirling on the spot and dodging Joshua's claw while at the same time hitting him with his elbow to knock him off balance.

That slight moment that Joshua succumbed to Davies's attack and was knocked off balance was his undoing, as Davies quickly formed a thin ice spear and drove it through Joshua's right thigh.

"Arrrrrghhhhhhh!" Joshua screamed in pain as he fell to his knees, but Davies wasn't done as he formed another ice spear and drove it through his left thigh as well, rendering him immobile.

Before Joshua could even think about his current situation, Davies's right leg whipped across his face, sending him flying sideways until he crashed into a Cerrari that was parked on the road.

"Urrrgggghhhhhh," Joshua groaned as he pushed himself away from the car but ended up stumbling back to the ground due to the pain in his legs.

"All that talk, you managed to successfully rile me up… and yet you ended up going down without even lasting a minute," Davies began as he slowly walked towards him, his steps sounding like the march of the grim reaper as his killing intent was unleashed, forming a red shadowy figure behind him with nothing but mad slaughter in its eyes.

"Urgh, you bastard…" Joshua grabbed the frame of the Cerrari and tried to use it to pull himself up, but before he could even manage to do that,

*BOOM*

"Urrrkkkk"

Davies had arrived before him at high speed and kneed him in the face, before grabbing his hair and pulling him up, and then hitting him three times in quick succession, leaving Joshua's face completely swollen and bloodied.

"You are nothing but an annoying dog whose only use is to bark," Davies told Joshua as he held him up by his hair, his tone unfeeling.

*Spit*

Joshua spat in his face before starting to laugh in a mad voice,

"You won't get away with this you bastard, my father is going to kill you!!!" Joshua shouted while still laughing madly, expecting Davies to act scared, but…

"Seems you still need a lesson," Davies said as ice began to form around Joshua's body that was still being held up by Davies. The ice spread around Joshua's whole body, binding him and holding him up.

"Since you're family, I can't kill you right now… but I can leave you an inch close to death," Davies said as he turned away from Joshua and began to walk away.

"Hey!!! Where are you going!? You can't just leave me here!!!" Joshua shouted at Davies's back as he walked away.

"Ice Explosion," Davies said, almost in a whisper as he walked away without looking back.

The ice surrounding Joshua, binding him and holding him up, burst in an explosion, the tiny shards formed from the ice explosion rushing forcefully into every part of Joshua's exposed body.

"AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!" Joshua screamed in pain as he fell to the ground, before slowly beginning to lose consciousness, his blood beginning to pool beneath him.

Davies walked back toward his car, not bothering to look behind him as he pulled out his handkerchief and began to clean away the blood on his hands and then finally cleaned Joshua's saliva off his face.

He got to the car, but before opening the door, he froze the handkerchief and then let it drop before opening the door of the Ventley and getting in, the handkerchief falling to the floor and shattering into icy dust.
