The villainess shall be mine

"What a hassle," Adam muttered to himself, holding the container containing Zax's head while floating in the air. He had his eyes locked in the direction of the city where the Holy Church was. He followed the black particles that drifted in the air until he found where they accumulated into a single giant black orb.

Adam knew that the Emperor was involved in some kind of plot, but he didn't know what it involved. Well, it didn't matter to him. What he didn't change.

He glanced at Zax. Her brain was somehow kept active so she wasn't dead, but she wasn't alive too. From the look of it, someone was performing inhuman experimentation within the Fenrirus territory, and this person was the one who did such a cruel thing to Zax.

Not only Zax, but he also found the corpses of Feldenis and Maria inside what looked like a laboratory. They were probably treated as failures because their body was dissected but not put back together.

Adam saw some of the people who were affiliated with the Fenrirus clan running around like ants, then something escaped from their bodies, something black. They appeared to be quite confused by what was happening.

"…" Some of them might have been involved in many crimes and atrocities, but he wouldn't take the time to ask every single one of them.

Among them, however, Adam noticed someone wearing the clothing of a priest. Maybe he could extract information from them, he concluded.

But before that, Adam pointed his finger at the tallest building, the castle of a madman, along with all of the secret rooms and the atrocities perpetrated inside them.

"Incineration." It was a single huge ball of black flames. Engulfing the building that was almost 600 hundred meters tall. The flames spread quickly and were extremely destructive—the hottest flames that any human gift holder could ever produce.

Satisfied, Adam had finally rushed down to his next target—the priest.

Adam landed on the priest abruptly and pinned him on the ground with his leg, stepping on his chest.

"…" However, after looking at the priest, he immediately understood the situation.

The priest didn't even react to the pain nor shocked by Adam's sudden appearance. He still had that fake smile on his face.

Ignoring the priest, Adam looked around, but could only see bodies lying on their ground, a black and viscous liquid spilling out of every hole on their face. It reminded him of a scene from a horror movie.

Nonetheless, Adam didn't show any reaction on his face and just disintegrated the priest with black flames too.

He was conserving his energy so he used the most destructive power that didn't require a lot of energy to activate—black flames. He converted the particles around him into fire particles that only he could manipulate. One of the powers of the creation Authority.

Now that he understood how it worked, he didn't need to activate his nullification power anymore, nor did he need to create that domain of twenty meters wide.

The word 'understanding' made all the difference because there was a natural order to all things.

By chance, anyone could accidentally create an elixir that cures all diseases, but they wouldn't understand what caused the chemical reaction, and so they would continue to keep recreating the same conditions to create more. That didn't mean that they knew how to create the elixir of life.

Adam used the power of Authority while not understanding how it worked. He didn't even know about the existence of Nothingness, so he just recreated the conditions in which he could use the mysterious power.

But even after all that, for the time being, he just converged the particles around him, in other words manipulating the Nothingness in his surroundings, go into a power that he could control.

Even though he understood how to use the power of the Creation authority, it was not like he could immediately create a human, a whole universe, or something such as that.

At best, his mastery was at level 0.1, not even 1, if some kind of measurements were used to turn his current ability into statistics. He would probably be able to create a human at around level 70 if he could create a universe at level 90 or something like that.

Adam himself understood this, but he knew that there was not always a shortcut to everything. And he wouldn't be always so lucky. Being able to use the Destruction Authority to activate his domain was already an exceptional achievement for a mortal. So he had to finish the job with those for the time being.

"The Destruction authority is damn powerful though," Adam admitted, as he made his way through the city full of dead bodies. Even the Fenrirus clan wasn't sparred.

The Destruction, as its name implied, and authority that had the power to destroy. But destroy what? In simple terms, it undid what was done by the Creation authority, and that was why, only Nothingness would be left after the activation of the Destruction ability—absolute tranquility.

"These priests appeared to be related to what's happening. It's a really disturbing ability," he analyzed, thinking back about his fight with the puppets. "However, it's not the same as the ability used to control these puppets. I already felt this feeling before… These black particles are corruption."

If that was the case, the fact that all that corruption was now being gathered in a single place was all but a good thing. Moreover…

"It's not only from this planet," Adam noticed, gigantic black orbs entering the atmosphere. It was quite the sight.

The black orb at the center of it all continued to grow, almost the size of a moon.

Adam rose in the air again, looking at the scene with a calm expression. But he understood that he had to do something, and quickly. However…

"…!!" Adam felt something grabbing his heart.

*****

'What's going on with this guy?' Drakel thought, looking at Adam who seemed to have noticed that he was using his ability to grab his heart.

He had come to this place only to see that his laboratory was destroyed and the whole tower was turned into ashes. This brat had also destroyed four of his specimens, even his wife.

Drakel had always loved to experiment on human beings. He wanted to know how to create life, but that was only the second reason. He loved to see the interior of a human body and to break it apart and then put it back together, adding new modifications, making something superior out of it.

Fortunately, his gift was also extremely useful for his passion of him. And in exchange for doing some work for the Emperor, he could do anything he wanted.

He didn't really care about the fate of the world, and even less when it came to wealth and power. It didn't give him that sensation when he tore open the stomach of a human, looking at how their entrails worked while they were still alive—that was a thrill.

Recently he found a specimen that he wanted to study so badly and obtained it. He wanted to modify her body so that he could look at what was inside whenever he wanted. A body that could open, yet still have working organs inside.

Now, all of his projects were destroyed because of this brat. What was the problem with him anyway? Why didn't the Emperor just get rid of him?

"Tch… Now, I have to dirty my hands. He doesn't even look like he would make a—Gahh! What is this? My hand?!" It was no wonder that Drakel began to scream. The hand that he used to grab Adam's heart was gone, disintegrated.

But how could that be? It was inside his body, no? Adam should have already died after a hand penetrated his body.

This trick worked every time, with Liu, with anyone who threatened stood between him and his passion. Drakel was confused, trying to find a clue of something he missed, and this led to this outcome.

"Your death would be the most extremely painful," Adam said, closing the distance between him and Drakel in a second.

Drakel took a step back, but his eyes stopped on Zax. This made Adam's brows twitch, who was calm all of this time.

"You—"

"Shut up!" A heavy metallic ball appeared inside Drakel's mouth, dislocating his jaw and causing his mouth to stay open.

"Nnmmmn"

Adam ignored him and nullified his power. Adam wasn't finished with him yet, and his power appeared to be quite annoying.

However, disintegrating humans by causing all of the atoms that constituted their bodies to divide was easy with his power. Drake didn't stand a chance at all. No human could beat Adam, because he was now the more powerful human being that existed in this universe.

But there was no way for Drakel to know about such a thing, about the nature of the being in front of him. He was just another inferior being who couldn't understand what being superior was even if explained to them, and even if they witness it.

"A creature like you shouldn't exist in any reality," Adam said, not considering the creature in front of him as human.

"Nnnnn!" Drake screamed in pain. And of course, he would. Every bone of his spine began to spin one by one.

Pain was not as fun as how Drakel saw it. He began to thrash violently on the ground, but his spine continued to spin, shattering his own organs—A gruesome way to die.

He continued to scream until his last, but because of the metal ball in his mouth, no one heard his scream.
