Should I Become a Villain?

Radmilo was regarded as an easy opponent by the smugglers. Even if the man was physically strong, he could not fight many people. That was the reason they appeared confidently. Furthermore, they frequently kill hunters who catch them smuggling items from dungeons.

"The scorpion is ours!" One of them shouted as he pointed his sword at Radmilo.

"Fine," Radmilo raised both of his hands. "But you better give me your share of the rewards. This is my generosity."

They seemed annoyed by the offer, especially since Radmilo had beaten up their crow monster's target.

"Who are you to make such an offer to us? You're worthless!"

Radmilo shook his head. "Let me see if I'm really worthless."

"So, what are your plans?"

Without answering the question, Radmilo moved his sword and drew it at the person who had asked. Everyone was taken aback. They looked confused by what had just happened. They then exchanged stares and conversed.

"H-hey, that guy is strong! I think he's in A-rank."

"A-rank?! But how?"

"Wait... That means—"

The man could not finish what he was saying because Radmilo had already beheaded him. When he killed their friend again, everyone was speechless.

"Is this some kind of joke?"

"No, it's not! He's that strong!"

"Is now a good time to speak? Let's run! We'll also be killed if we stay here."

"Shit. We need to escape now, everyone!"

The group became invisible and exited the area. They needed to find the dungeon boss and get out as soon as possible so they could report the incident to their broker.

At the same time, Radmilo snorted at their behavior. "What a bunch of cowards."

He did not want to let them escape. If they did, they would probably report what happened in the dungeon to their broker. He was going to make sure they died here, since he did not want anyone to divulge his physique.

However, Radmilo would defeat the giant scorpion here first. The smugglers could not escape the dungeon because the boss had not been defeated. Even though they were invisible, he was confident he could find them.

Radmilo had to be cautious not to let his opponent's tail catch up with him. His sword was still in his hand, and he could use it as a shield if necessary. He stood with his feet wide apart, ready to move at any moment.

The scorpion's tail appeared to have no end, but this was not the case. He could cut through it if he could get close enough. That was why he faced the giant scorpion with such confidence.

If the scorpion detected danger from the front, the only way to defeat it was to remain observant and attack from behind. Radmilo could strike his opponent in an unexpected direction thanks to this strategy. It was far easier than trying to predict where its tail would go next.

The scorpion swiveled around, turning away from Radmilo and swinging its tail up. It desired to slam his body against the ground without fear of being attacked. Radmilo was approaching from behind, and the scorpion was doing everything it could to keep him at bay.

"Now!"

Radmilo charged forward, hoping to catch the scorpion off guard. His sword slashed the scorpion's body. It scrambled around with its split-in-half body. Despite the pain, the scorpion knew this was the last chance to strike back.

The scorpion's body leaked black liquid, which moved toward Radmilo. It was poison. He did not need to dodge because the poison would not affect him, since he had [Poison Resistance] from defeating many basilisks.

Nonetheless, Radmilo jumped backward to test his dexterity without relying on his ultimate power. The scorpion's remaining leg swung at him. He blocked it with both hands this time.

Radmilo's sword's sharp blade flew down from above and ripped the scorpion's body apart. The scorpion beast collapsed to the ground and ceased to move. It was no longer alive.

[First Quest: Defeat the Giant Scorpion [1/1] has been completed!]

Radmilo let out a sigh of relief. His hand instinctively reached for his neck, checking to see if he had died. Fortunately, he had not. His skin had absorbed all the poison.

"My dexterity is still the same as it was before I went back in time. I'm just not used to this body yet."

Radmilo examined his hands. There were no more of his previous life's perfect hand muscles. He needed to strengthen his body as soon as possible.

"But foremost, I must finish those losers," he said as he walked over to find the smugglers.
