Villain's Journey Towards Destruction

Chapter 16: Dream.

The dark sky slowly disappeared, and shortly afterward, the blue sky appeared.

The longest night in the history of Kindland has finally ended.

Battle of Charity.

Legendary battle between Disaster-Moon Villain and Heroes from Charity.

Disaster-Moon Villain, The Jack, The Disaster of Charity won the battle with overwhelming might.

News about the battle and the videos has already spread everywhere in Kindness; It has also reached the shore of Freedom, soon rest of the Continents have heard of it.

The Jack is now ranked Top 7 in Most Wanted list, and the Bounty he received was enormous 27,560,000$.

Ordinary villains usually have around 10k, but Jack's is 27 million!

Every Continent has its own Wanted Lists.

But there is also a thing called Global Wanted List, and it is shared with every Continent except Death because it doesn't belong to the alliance of the 4 Continents.

Jack's ranking in Global Wanted List is 54th.

Now he is officially a Supervillain, and he can't return to ordinary life anymore.

The death count of the battle of Charity reached 3 million, but Jack didn't kill all of them.

In the evacuation, some people died.

The panic filled the streets, and some unlucky ones died as a result.

Jack's face is shown in every News Station and newspaper.

Everyone in Kindland knows his face and name.

And it is only a matter of time before everyone in Kindness will.

A lot of interviews were shown on the TV, from his family and his co-workers.

''Adam Wrathelm, what is your opinion of your son?'' The Reporter asked.

Adam snorted. ''He isn't my son! He is nothing but scum who killed his wife! I met Sophia once, and she was sweet and kind, someone Jack didn't deserve!''

''What about you, Jade?''

A middle-aged woman stood next to Adam, Jade answered. ''He isn't our son! We cut connections a long time ago, and I never knew what Sophia saw in him; she was someone way above Jack's league, and this proves it. Our so-called son killed her in cold blood!''

The Reporter nodded; she also hated Jack as much as everyone.

She asked the final question. ''If Jack is watching this interview, what would you like to say to him?''

Adam scoffed and said. ''I knew you would become villain one day; I had a hunch after you received your useless ability; I should have killed you when I had the chance.''

''My biggest regret was giving birth to you,'' Jade answered brutally.

After this interview.

His co-workers were next.

''What kind of person Jack was, Mister Dom?'' A male reporter asked from a short man with a huge belly.

He was Jack's boss, Dom.

He answered. ''He was kind of useless honestly, he couldn't even fix a camera, and that is our only job!''

''Why didn't you fire him then?'' The Reporter asked.

Dom scratched the back of his head. ''I pitied him; I knew his wife was about to give birth, and he needed some extra buck.''

''Very noble of you.'' The Reporter said admirably.

Dom hid his disgusting grin and only shrugged his shoulders humbly.

''If Jack is watching this interview, what would you like to say to him?''

Dom grinned and said. ''You are fired!''

But where is the Protagonist of all this talk?

Jack was currently walking in a forest, in the middle of nowhere.

He has walked nonstop while carrying the heavy-looking refrigerator.

But he doesn't look like he is exhausted.

He is far away from Charity, at least over 100km.

He has been following Star Warrior and Green Dream, and they have stopped a few times during their journey.

But then the news came that Jack was walking in their direction, and they had no other choice than keep running.

But why was Jack in the forest?

It is because he is human.

He needs to sleep.

He needs to eat.

He needs to drink.

And Star Warrior and Green Dream are staying in a city near the forest.

Only 10km away.

Jack walked deeper into the forest until he finally found a dark cave.

He didn't care if there were wild animals; he only walked inside.

The cave was only around 10m long, but it was enough; he put the refrigerator down on the ground.

He sat next to the refrigerator.

[Rage Meter: 1% - Everyone is your enemy!]

[Rage Meter: 0% - You hate everything]

The Rage Meter finally reached the 0%

''Aaahh...'' Jack let out a huge breath.

His eyes started changing, the black and red eyes disappeared, and his grey eyes were shown.

Jack breathed heavily; he finally got his clarity back.

The rage isn't controlling him anymore.

He also had his clarity a few times in Charity.

But this time, he is entirely in control of his actions.

He put his hands on his face.

''Sophia... I have done a terrible thing.'' Jack murmured.

He knows that there is no going back.

He is a villain, and he can't do anything about it.

He killed countless people.

Men, women, and children. No one survived his wrath.

''W-What is this power...'' Jack thought aloud; he tried to control the red energy, but it was currently in a fragile state.

He decided to check his Interface.

[Name: Jack Wrathelm]

[Age: 27]

[Superpower: Rage Incarnation]

[Rank: S]

[Description: More Rage you feel, stronger your Rage Energy will be]

[Rage Energy: Fueled by your Rage. Rage Energy is your instrument of Destruction]

[Rage: Send a beam of Rage Energy towards your opponent.]

[Rage Pain: More anger your targets feel, more painful death they receive.]

[Rageful Spirit: Let the environment feel your Rage, the more Rage you feel, the more destruction you will cause to the surrounding environment.]

[Rageful Destiny: Let everyone feel your Rage. More Rage you will, the more extensive the range of the attack will be.]

[Raging Internal Destruction: Let your opponent feel your Rage. More Rage you feel, more destruction your target's body will suffer.]

''I see... This is so-called Rage Energy...'' Jack muttered while covering his hand in the red energy.

Jack sadly smiled; he still felt anger.

He felt anger towards everyone.

The ant moving in the ground, Jack wants to kill it.

Floating leaves in front of him; he wants to destroy them.

This is who he is from now on.

Person fueled by Rage.

''Sophia... Would she hate me if she saw me right now?''

His wife only died 20 hours ago.

He still knows the taste of her lips.

The warmth her body holds.

''Sophia... I am lost without you...''

He put his hands on his face and screamed. ''ARGHHHHHHH!''

''I am sorry I couldn't protect you...'' Jack muttered one last time; his eyelids started getting heavier and heavier.

Jack fell asleep.

...

Jack was standing inside his living room; he looked around him and saw his house looking perfectly similar.

''Jack?'' He heard a voice, with trembling body he turned his head.

He saw Sophia, perfectly alive. ''S-Sophia?''

''What is it, dear?'' Sophia chuckled and rubbed his cheeks with love.

''S-Sophia!'' Jack cried out and hugged her body.

''What is it, dear?'' Sophia asked with worry.

Tears started falling from his eyes. ''Sophia? Is it you?''

''Who else, dummy, did you see nightmares again? You are so childish sometimes; the nightmares aren't real.'' Sophia told gently, like soothing a child, but she loved this side of Jack.

''Nightmare?'' Jack murmured.

He stopped hugging Sophia's figure and tried to calm himself down.

He sighed with great relief. ''I guess it was a nightmare...''

''Of course, it was silly,'' Sophia said and kissed his forehead.

But then Jack saw a strange sight.

He pointed towards her belly. ''H-How?''

Sophia's belly was utterly ordinary; her perfect curves were on display, without any signs of pregnancy.

''What do you mean?'' Sophia asked with a raised eyebrow.

Jack was going to ask about the pregnancy.

But then loud footsteps came from the upstairs.

''Jasmine, no running in the house!'' Sophia yelled, but her voice was filled with love.

''Hehehe, sorry, mommy!'' A childish voice came from the stairs, and a cute child was shown.

She ran towards Sophia and hugged her legs.

Sophia laughed a little bit and patted her daughter's head.

''W-What?'' Jack looked at the scene with widened eyes. ''T-This doesn't feel right...''

''Daddy?'' Jasmine asked with a childish tone, then she smiled. ''You promised to take me to the park today!''

''Park?'' Jack murmured.

''Yep! We made pinky promise; you can't break it!'' Jasmine told sternly, but instead of looking intimidating, it looked extremely cute.

''Park... That's right...''

Sophia and Jasmine walked out of the house with their hands locked.

''Hurry up daddy!'' Jasmine yelled cheerfully.

''Dear, you don't want to make her mad, she might not let you pinch her cheeks today.'' Sophia told with amusement.

''A-Alright...'' Jack murmured and he also exited the house.

...But then everything started cracking.

Jack looked with hazy vision as everything started disappearing.

''Sophia?! Jasmine?!'' Jack roared.

He saw Sophia and Jasmine laughing with each other, until he couldn't see them anymore.

''SOPHIA! JASMINE!''

Then the Dream ended.

Jack opened his eyes and saw the walls of the dark cave.
