Villain: Ultimate Mutation System in the Alternate World

"Please, Nobu-san, not now," she cut him off, her tone slightly annoyed.

Seki had completely forgotten the countless times Nobu had saved her, assisted her, and stood by her side.

All of his efforts vanished the moment she became aware of his feelings. It was game over.

The worst mistake a man could make was confessing love to someone who didn't even feel an ounce of attraction.

It would be different if they were close in age; she could just friendzone him.

But Nobu was old enough to be her father, so she had to make it clear that he had no chance whatsoever.

Unfortunately, Nobu was too oblivious to realize that. He still believed that she could be persuaded if he just put more effort into it.

As the trio waited, the other two remained silent, avoiding any conversation.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Reign, however, was observing closely, his eyes sharp, waiting for something.

Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed people in black coats carrying briefcases.

Using his sharp senses, he overheard that they were there to relay an emergency message to Green Valley.

'Got you,' a small smile formed in his lips. This was his chance to prevent any new data from being sent.

He watched as the individuals handled paperwork, knowing from memory that they likely stored important information on a hard drive.

As he walked closer, he intentionally bumped into one of them.

"Oh, sorry," he said, offering a quick apology.

The man shot him a stern look. "Watch it. Stay away from us."

Reign nodded and stepped back, appearing obedient.

But as he moved away, a slight smirk tugged at his lips.

They didn't noticed he had already used his divine energy to tamper with their devices.

Now, even if they sent the information through any means, it would contain corrupted data that could put him in a difficult situation in the future.

His fight with Tiara had been too flashy, and there was a chance someone had seen him using his Divine Power, so he had to be extra careful for many reasons.

One, being an angel was just as dangerous, if not more, than being a demon.

They had no allies left among humans. That's why those avatars he had killed chose to grow stronger in secret, hiding their true identities.

They feared that humans would exploit their power if it were ever discovered. Given how human minds work, it wasn't far-fetched to think they might even use angels as lab rats if they could.

The same applied to devils like Lilith. That's why she put extra effort into building her own powerful army, taking her time to gather more forces. Enjoy new chapters from empire

It was almost funny how these powerful beings were so cautious of creatures as weak and fragile as humans.

'That smell,' Reign's nose twitched, picking up a familiar scent. He turned around and saw a cute, petite girl walking toward him.

"Where's your luggage?" Celine asked, her voice a bit warmer .

She was now dressed casually in a green sweater and comfortable jeans that fit her well. She wore white sneakers, perfect for walking, and carried a small bag over her shoulder, with a luggage bag in her left hand.

"Don't need one," he responded, doing his best to ignore the way his heart beat faster again.

The time they had spent apart had lowered his tolerance against her presence.

'Control your emotion ,' He focused on staying composed, but every glance in her direction reminded him of how much he missed her.

'Damn, do I need to punch her in the face just to get rid of this feeling?' he thought to himself, his mind filled with dark thoughts.

Meanwhile, Seki was stunned when she saw how attractive Celine was.

Even Nobu was taken aback. There was something about her face that draw people in.

"Hey, are you thinking about bad things again?" Celine asked sarcastically. "Please, spare me. I don't want to go through that again. I'll just say 'yes' to everything you say,"

If she was going to follow him in the first place, she figured it was better to go all in to avoid another painful beating.

What he had done to her was still fresh in her mind, and just looking at his hand made her neck tingle with discomfort.

"..." he was loss for words.

It had been easier for him to hurt her when she was annoying, but now that she was being so subdued, he couldn't find a reason to be angry.

In fact, her calm attitude backfired, leaving him even more confused and unsure of how to react.

"Take a seat there. I'll just go to the restroom first," he said, quickly shifting the conversation and making an exit.

Reign hurried into the restroom, his mind racing as he locked the door behind him.

The cool, fluorescent lights flickered overhead, casting a harsh glow on the white tiles.

He leaned against the sink, gripping the edges tightly as he stared into the mirror.

His reflection stared back at him, eyes filled with frustration and disappointment in himself.

The sight of Celine, soft spoken and compliant, was messing with his head.

Her sudden change in personality made him uneasy, making him more anxious than he cared to admit.

'Calm yourself,' he muttered, taking a deep breath to steady his racing heart.

The restroom was quiet, save for the faint hum of the ventilation system.

Reign splashed cold water on his face, hoping to shake off the uncomfortable feelings.

But as he looked up again, the tension in his shoulders remained.

'Get it together,' he muttered under his breath. He knew he had to return and maintain control, but the thoughts of her softening presence made it harder to stay focused.

Taking another deep breath, he prepared to leave the restroom, determined to face her with the same authority he had before.

He was determined not to let his emotions get the better of him

'I need to show her who's in control,' he declared.
