Villain: Ultimate Mutation System in the Alternate World

"Where am I?" Reign asked himself, his voice echoing faintly in the darkness.

He felt as though his entire body was enveloped in an invisible force, like being submerged in thick, gooey water.

Every movement felt sluggish and heavy, like he was struggling against an unseen current that pulled him in all directions at once.

But despite the sensation, there was a strange reassurance in the fact that at least he wasn't drowning.

Dying by drowning might be one, if not the worst, ways for humans to die.

The sensation of struggling for air, the desperate gasps for breath as water fills the lungs, the overwhelming sense of panic and helplessness—all contribute to an agonizing and slow demise.

So, in a way, this situation was not so bad.

'I just increased my intelligence, and this happens? I don't even feel smarter,' he muttered to himself, the confusion evident in his voice.

[Ding!]

The familiar notification sound rang out, breaking the eerie silence, and a window popped up before him.

Its appearance, though simple, provided a welcomed contrast to the darkness that enveloped him, offering a glimmer of color and light in an otherwise bleak place.

The available options shocked Reign.

He was certain that this wasn't the normal way to acquire a domain, but the system had streamlined the process like he was in a video game or something .

Not that he wanted to complain; on the contrary, being able to make things much easier to understand allowed him to save more time and energy.

As he clicked on each option, he discovered that each Domain had a different quality and also a lot of simplified information that he could click on to expand the details.

For example, the "Chance" indicated how difficult it was to obtain a domain and the likelihood of success.

With his solid foundation, even the Bronze Rank had a 200% chance of success. However, he wouldn't pick this option because it was the lowest tier.

That was akin to having money to spend on food, but picking the cheapest option just for the sake of saving.

On the other hand, "Range Cap" didn't mean that he would get that much area right away; rather, it indicated the maximum area he could expand to.

This meant that if he chose the Bronze Rank, he would be limited by that area regardless of how much stronger he became in the future.

In the short term, it wouldn't be much of an issue, but as he grew stronger, this cap would stop him from improving further.

The third factor was consumption, which was more straightforward.

The lower the rank, the less consumption needed to maintain it, and vice versa.

This was only logical, given that comparing Bronze Rank to Legendary Rank was like comparing a small motorbike to a jetplane.

Higher ranks had more options and features, so the consumption would be higher too.

Next was Attributes.

As it says, in creating a domain, Reign could assign attributes to it to make the whole area more advantageous for him.

In his case, with plenty of attributes to choose from, getting the Legendary rank would be perfect for him.

Unlike other demons who are more bound to one or two attributes, he has the capability to use dozens of attributes because of his system.

Attributes were a good way to supplement power within a domain.

For example, if he had a domain with a lightning attribute, it would directly enhance all his lightning-related abilities because the element no longer needed to be created; he just had to control it within his surroundings.

FLastly, there was the maximum law.

Reign wasn't very knowledgeable about this, but thanks to the system, he had some guesses.

Laws within a domain were like the rules that govern how things work inside of it.

They establish what was possible and what was not.

For example, just as the Law of Gravity on Earth dictates that objects which is heavier than air molecules are pulled toward the ground, domain laws determine how things behave within that specific area.

Of course, the natural laws still exist within a domain because they are universal.

However, if a demon was powerful enough, they could temporarily replace or even supersede those laws in favor of their own.

Reading this, he realized that he had been lucky not to encounter any demons with a Domain yet.

No matter how strong he was, fighting against someone with a Domain without having one himself would be suicidal.

This was no longer just a matter of how much damage output he could produce, but whether he could even hit his target in the first place.

'The Legendary Rank is the obvious choice, but it says 1%,'he pondered.

'If the system is basing it on my current ability, then how difficult is it to obtain?'

There was no way something as powerful as the Legendary rank would be easy to get using this logic.

"System what will happen if I failed ?" He asked.

[System: You will receive the lowest Domain - Bronze]

'That's basically crippling me,' Reign sighed.

Getting the Bronze Rank would be a death sentence. It was like having a sports car but being restricted to driving it on rough, uneven roads in a mountainous and rocky area.

'Should I try the King Rank?' he pondered.

It had a 15% chance, which was much better than risking it all with just 1%.

'No, I can't do that. I have a system for god's sake,' he sighed.

He didn't know how strong the other powerhouses in this world were, so he always had to pick the best option if it was available.

So far, all he had in his body was the very best: a Legendary Race and a Legendary Core.

He only needed the Legendary Domain to complete the Holy Trinity of power.

At that point, as long as nothing happened to him, he would become unrivaled once he reached the peak.

No one at the same level as him would be able to hurt him.

'System, what are the requirements to obtain a domain?' he asked.

He wanted to gather as much information as possible, knowing more would be a big help.

[System: The process of obtaining a domain is too random for a definite answer.]

'Shit,' he cursed inwardly, it seems he just had to hope for the best.

"I pick the Legendary Domain,"

In response to his choice, his body warped and distorted, as if disintegrating, but in reality, it remained unchanged.

All of this was just his mind playing tricks on him.
