Should I Become a Villain?

The teleportation item brought Radmilo to a pine forest. He only found monkeys there. As he continued to walk, he came across a small wooden house. There was no one in sight.

Radmilo, on the other hand, noticed a security team guarding the wooden house. They were very good at camouflage. He could see their disguises because he frequently disguised himself when he received secret missions from the IRO.

Without hesitation, the man approached the wooden house. Still, the security team made no response at all. That caused him to frown in confusion.

'Have they planned something?'

This question kept coming to Radmilo. The security team did not even react when he entered the wooden house. Because the wooden house was so small, he could easily find the person he was looking for.

Radmilo only had to walk a short distance before finding Emrick watching television in the living room. The old man turned to him with a surprised face.

"How did you get here?" Emrick inquired warily.

He mistook the person who entered the house for one of the security team's bodyguards. However, he felt strange because the bodyguard did not greet him. The person who casually entered the house turned out to be the masked man who was supposed to kill him today.

"Where are the bodyguards? Have you killed them all?" asked Emrick once again.

Radmilo remained silent. Instead, he examined Emrick from head to toe. Was that old man an impersonator? Influential people at the IRO did have impersonators to avoid unwanted things.

The current situation was so strange that Radmilo assumed the person he met at this time was an Emrick impersonator. It was different when he attacked Tyrone. He was sure he had harmed the right person because Elena's teleportation power would not go wrong.

However, the IRO would be on high alert following the Tyrone incident. They could have replaced Emrick with the impersonator and lured Radmilo to come there. Furthermore, the security team had acted strangely since he set foot in the forest.

The security team guarding Emrick were A-rank hunters from the Phantom guild. They could feel the small magic explosion from the teleportation item but did nothing.

"Did... Did you steal my son's teleportation item?" Emrick finally asked again after realizing what had happened.

Radmilo threw the teleport button he had taken from Cyril. "I think you know the answer."

Emrick stared at the teleportation item as he clenched his fist. He ordered the teleportation item as a shirt button for his son. However, Radmilo was still able to find the teleportation item.

The IRO had instructed Emrick not to act without informing the security team. Unfortunately, he thought the IRO would not mind if he could beat Radmilo. According to Maido, the masked man used his ultimate power to kill him.

The trigger to activate his power was through a spell. Emrick had a chance to win if he could keep Radmilo from saying anything.

"Are you looking for a way to defeat me?" asked Radmilo mockingly.

Emrick completely ignored him. Instead, he whistled to activate his power.

"Huh? You're not an impersonator?" Radmilo was taken aback for a moment, but he was ready to face any monster Emrick summoned.

However, he had to deal with an octopus that came out of his mouth. The octopus tentacles wrapped around his arms. He had almost let go of his dagger when his wrist felt like it was going to break.

Radmilo had no idea Emrick could summon a monster from someone's mouth. He had never seen this power in his previous life. He was not surprised, though, because almost everyone in the IRO hid their true powers, just like he did.

"I heard Tyrone crush your hand," Emrick said as he walked over to Radmilo.

The masked man was still struggling to get the octopus monster out of his mouth.

"It's useless," Emrick spoke again. "For five minutes, that monster will be stuck in your mouth. The security team is already here. I and they will easily defeat you."

Radmilo was sure Emrick was talking about his skill because the old man was confident he could beat him. He was in a bad situation right now. He would lose if he could not hold Emrick on his feet for five minutes.

Moreover, the security team would also take part in the fight. Radmilo did not give up, nonetheless. He would do whatever he could. Just as Emrick was about to take a weapon, he immediately kicked the old man's arm.

"Are you begging me not to use weapons? Alright, I'll grant your wish since today is your last day," Emrick spoke mockingly.

Radmilo was not provoked. He looked around the room, but there were no guards. Did they not come to help Emrick?

He stopped thinking about the security team because Emrick had come to lunge at him. It was fortunate for him that he could dodge in time, even though his body felt heavy from the octopus.

"I don't know why the security team didn't help me. They seemed to believe I could beat you on my own," Emrick spoke up when he noticed the bodyguards had not arrived.

He ignored the oddness and concentrated on attacking Radmilo. The masked man surprisingly could dodge his attacks well.

Radmilo, on the other hand, could only avoid Emrick since he had no way of attacking him. Emrick was taller than him; it was like fighting a tree. And he was not as fast as the old man because the octopus monster gripped his body.

Despite this, Radmilo continued to escape while watching for gaps where he could attack Emrick. He tried to take Emrick down, but his opponent was too strong and had a lot of endurance. It seemed that Emrick would never fall.

Radmilo desperately wanted to get out of this situation, but he could not do so. All he could do was use his leg to block the attacks. He could defend himself from the punch but was in pain throughout his body.

His muscles were becoming fatigued. However, Emrick would not go easy on him. Suddenly, Emrick started kicking his chest. He could only accept it because he ran out of stamina to dodge.

It was challenging for him to fight with only two legs. There was nothing else Radmilo could do but wait for Emrick's next attack. After surviving all the attacks, he became aware of the old man's attack patterns.

Emrick beat him continuously and stopped for about ten seconds before launching another attack. Those ten seconds were Radmilo's golden time to make an attack. If he failed, Emrick would notice and change his attack.

"It's almost been five minutes. I think I should be serious about this fight. What do you think?"

Radmilo just stared straight at Emrick. He kicked the old man in the shinbone when he discovered the gasp. It was a part Emrick's hands could not quickly reach.

As a result, Emrick winced in pain as he clutched his shinbone. He cursed and decided to take a lethal poison injection from his inventory.

"You're done!" Emrick shouted as he stood up with the injection in his hand. "Even Poison Resistance will struggle to overcome this poison!"

When he was about to inject Radmilo's hand, the octopus monster suddenly disappeared from the masked man's mouth. Emrick freaked out when he realized the security team had not come to help him.

"Speed up."

Emrick was stunned when he heard Radmilo's voice. He knew his life was over if the masked man said something. His mind went blank as soon as he heard Radmilo say his name.

At that time, Emrick thought about what Maido had told him.

"The masked man will kill you in a way I have never seen. I'm not sure what kind of power he possesses. However, you grow old and die when he uses his power on you."

Emrick now understood what Maido was saying. He felt his healthy body turn into pain when the masked man mentioned his name. His heartbeat also slowed down. He was out of breath and had a chill running down his leg.

It was a pain Emrick had never felt before. He realized right away that he was dying. Moments later, he fell to the floor because he had no more strength to hold his body.

The last thing Emrick heard were Radmilo's words. The man said mockingly, "You should have used that poison injection from the start."

[<Kill one head of the council> has been completed]

[Congratulions! You have cleared the second quest]

[Rewards will be processed automatically into your inventory]

Radmilo ignored the quest notification because he felt strange about the current situation. Why did the security team do nothing after he killed Emrick? He could not find an answer, no matter how hard he tried.

The IRO's top official must have told the security team to keep quiet. Radmilo, on the other hand, had no idea what the person was up to.
