Villain With The Strongest System

( Principal Liam's POV )

The atmosphere within the academy infirmary reached a boiling point when principal Liam reached the scene and found four of his students passed out on the beds.

Usually, the principal only had an air of unpredictability around him, however, today, he had the aura of a berserker on him, as he seemed ready to start an indiscriminate slaughter.

With his killing intent leaking, he listened to Madam Forum's report on what she found out as she responded to the emergency distress signal and the developments after.

" So, when you reached the students, you found Rocky hugging Sophia, desperately trying to save her life by clotting her blood….. while the orc and the golden haired boy were out unconscious with darts sticking out of their necks" Principal Liam asked instructor Forum who nodded earnestly.

" It certainly looked like Rocky was trying his best to keep the Champion of Poseidon alive, he was also very shook when he saw his friends being brought in for treatment and passed out from shock-" Instructor Forum reported, as Liam stomped his feet in anger.

"WEAKLING! HOW DISGRACEFUL IT IS FOR YOU TO PASS OUT LIKE A FUCKING CHILD.

WAKE THAT BASTARD UP SO I CAN SLAP HIM UNCONSCIOUS MYSELF.

THERE ARE TWO STUDENTS STILL MISSING DAMN IT" Liam shouted in anger, as he seemed ready to lunge atop Rocky's bed and smack him to consciousness as he had to be held back by Professor Maven.

" He's still a child, he's still a child…." Professor Maven said desperately, as he hoped that his words would calm the mad Liam down, who was starting to lose his sanity.

" How dare anyone attack my students! How dare they put them in such miserable states.

It seems the tower has forgotten who I am. It seems like it's time to bring the weapon out-" Liam said, a maniacal expression on his face, as everyone in the room panicked when Liam suggested bringing out 'That' item.

" Calm down principal Liam, I'm sure Professor Powell will be back after finding the two missing students soon-" Professor Maven said, as Liam grunted and began pacing around the room.

A few minutes later, Rocky regained consciousness as the first thing that he saw was principal Liam staring into his eyes.

" Huh?" He said as for a moment he could not recollect where he was, but then the memories flooded back in.

"Erin…. Is Erin okay?" Rocky said, as he sat up straight, looking around the infirmary as his breathing quickened.

Beside him was Erin and Buhara who did not look as bad as before.

Erin's skin had regained its usual color, while Buhara seemed like he was just in deep sleep.

On the first bed, the furthest away from him lay Sophia, who thankfully was breathing as well.

" Hey, I don't care that you have just woken up ….. I don't care if you're traumatized.

All three of those on the bed here will survive, but there are two more missing…. Tell me now, what the hell happened-" Professor Liam demanded as Rocky felt his soul shudder when he came into contact with Liam's invisible killing intent that was leaking heavily.

His legs began to quake, his heart began to beat faster, as his entire being entered a fight or flight mode as his body defied the order of his conscious brain.

" Liam, for the hundredth time, he's just a kid, GIVE HIM SOME ROOM AND LAY OFF-" Screamed Professor Maven, who pulled Liam off Rocky's bed, and stared straight into his eyes.

"Don't touch me like that Maven, else the first soul I'll collect will be yours-" Liam said as he pointed a finger to Maven's chest, with it looking like the two were ready to come to blows at any second.

" Principal Liam…." Rocky said, at that moment, as he gathered his wits….. his voice breaking their fight.

" We were chopping wood just outside the abandoned forest in a clearing.

Me, Erin and Buhara, when we heard the sound of a twig snapping.

We looked in that direction, but saw nothing, then suddenly from our blind spot, three poison darts suddenly came out flying.

They hit Erin and Buhara in the neck, but the one aimed for me missed by mere millimeters.

I don't think I dodged it consciously, so either the assassin missed or I dodged without my knowledge-" Rocky said, as he began narrating his tale.

" Erin and Buhara passed out almost immediately and then, a bruised and injured Sophia ran out of the clearing, yelling 'Run' towards me…."

" She was being chased by four assassin's, their strength unfathomable to someone like me, as they were adorned in black assassin robes with the seal of Olympus on their chest.

Immediately, I broke the safety seal given to me by Pope Cole of Earth as I knew this situation was tricky, but I could not press the emergency button as it was in my backpack which I had removed before chopping wood" Rocky said, as Principal Liam grit his teeth.

" I didn't know what the charm I broke did, but apparently it created a high level invisible barrier that returned twice the damage that one wanted me to receive and that's how the assassin that attacked me died.

On the other hand, Sophia, who was their main target, was stabbed in the chest…" Rocky said as Liam and the other professors stared at him emotionlessly.

" They deemed me too troublesome to deal with because of my barrier and left because they thought Sophia would surely die, but because she was breathing I tried my best to save her and pressed the emergency button immediately after they left.

I don't know who they are, or what they wanted, but my assumption would be that if Sophia's teammates are missing they should be inside the abandoned forest-" Rocky said, as principal Liam let out a deep sigh.

"This is absurd, why would agents of Olympus target their own Champion?" Professor Maven questioned, as Liam cut him off " Everything the boy said is true, although absurd, he's not lying. Everything happened exactly as he claimed it did.

My Lie detection skill would've told me if he was lying, but he's not…"

Since Principal Liam realized that Rocky was not the one behind harming Sophia and that this was not an internal squabble between rival gods, his gaze towards Rocky softened, however his overall anger did not subside at all.

Infact, it only increased when Professor Powell returned to the infirmary with two dead corpses over his shoulder.

" I'm sorry…. The kids died in transit while I was coming here. I was a few minutes too late" Professor Powell said, as he put both the kids down on infirmary beds.

Their bodies blackened beyond recognition, they seemed to have died a horrible death where their internal temperatures cooked their organs to failure.

As Rocky looked at their dead bodies, he felt slightly dizzy again as he realized that this would be the same fate that Erin and Buhara would have suffered should they not have been brought to the infirmary in time.

"Ho….hohohohoho" Principal Liam laughed, him having finally lost his mind as he jumped out of the infirmary window and disappeared into the wind.

" Maven stop him, he will bring that cursed thing out…." Professor Powell said, however, Professor Maven only shook his head and said nothing.

He already knew there was no stopping Liam anymore…..

Two of his students had died.

The only way he stopped now would be after rivers of blood had already been shed and the perpetrators were wiped out.
