Villain in a Fantasy World; I Level Up by Conquering Villainesses-Chapter 61: A Necromancer’s Requiem [3]

Eastern District, inside the Central Bank of Falaniondor.

Sir Greg’s living room...

The battle against the A Rank Illusionist was by far the most insidious, unusual, and most deadly battle that this experienced A Rank Warrior Centaur had ever fought in his decades of experience as an Awakened.

Sir Greg had fought against powerful Warriors, Archers, and even deadly Assassins, but he’d survived them all.

None of them made him feel as close to death like he felt now.

’So this is the Illusionist Class...’

He knew that there was no more use holding back.

After receiving 2 critical hits from being stabbed in the neck 2 consecutive times while he failed to deal zero to the enemy, he knew that he needed to throw all caution to the wind and go all out.

In his decades of experience as a Warrior, one source of pride for Sir Greg was the fact that besides being an A Rank Warrior, he already grasped the essence of the most powerful tool of high-rank combat- Domain Expansion.

Even among A Rank Awakened, less than 40% mastered Domain Expansion but Sir Greg had.

To him, this was one of his greatest source of pride and this was why he became the head of security of the Central Bank of Falaniondor.

And when he came close to dying, his Domain Expansion was naturally his go-to tactic.

Martial Domain Expansion- Impacting Horizon of the Splintered World!

BZZZ!

Instantly, the rust red qi of the Centaur spread out like a tsunami, covering the entire living room and dining room in an absolute martial domain.

Impacting Horizon of the Splintered World was the pinnacle of Sir Greg’s martial art!

The moment the domain came into effect, overlapping with reality within a range of 35 meters, the efficacy of all of his Class skills and racial traits increased by a whopping 150%!

That was not all, with his Domain Expansion active, the Level 70 passive ability of the Warrior Class also triggered- Limit Breaker.

With Limit Breaker triggered, the body of this A Rank Warrior instantly exceeded its limits, increasing physical defense, speed, agility, reflexes, and physical strength by a further 200%!

Sir Greg felt on top of the world.

He felt like he could crush a mountain with the pressure of his grasp.

BZZZ!

His rust red qi overflowed like a tide, flooding the entire range of his domain even as he felt his body overflowing with power.

All the shattered confidence of this powerful Warrior due to suffering repeated losses against the Illusionist instantly returned in his domain, and then the law of the domain triggered!

The law of Sir Greg’s domain was range.

Within the 35 meter range of his domain expansion, every single attack from Sir Greg was omnipotent and was not restricted by distance. Any attack could hit its target immediately with absolute authority within the domain range!

Within the range of the Impacting Horizon of the Splintered World, Sir Greg’s attack range was not restricted by the concept of distance.

Feeling his entire body pulsing with power, with his eyes gleaming with new-found confidence, he raised his mighty Spear and aimed at the enemy.

And yet for some reason, the beautiful Succubus showed no fear.

She looked directly into his eyes.

For some reason, staring back into those calm violet eyes, Sir Greg felt his heart skip a beat despite being in his own domain.

And then, her qi in a thick violet color like purple lightning also erupted!

Pandora’s rosy lips opened as she intoned in an authoritative voice. "Domain Expansion..."

’Eh?’ Sir Greg blinked. ’She has a Domain Expansion too? Ah, I should have known...’

Pandora completed it. "...False World".

That was the last word that Sir Greg ever heard.

BZZZ! CRACK!

Everything happened so fast, all he heard was an illusory sound that felt like the whole world just shattered and yet he knew vividly that it was his own domain that was just overpowered and shattered!

In his last moments, he realized. ’She’s stronger than me in every aspect...’ And then his perception turned dark.

See no evil, hear no evil, talk no evil.

Well, that no longer applied to him because he could no longer see, hear, or even talk. This was because he was dead.

Thud!

The lifeless and headless body of the A Rank Warrior collapsed to the ground.

The head of the Centaur, still frozen in pain and confusion stared in a dazed manner, now devoid of life.

Spurt...

And as blood still rained down from the lifeless head, Pandora held it by the severed neck, admiring it with a calm expression of pleasure on her face as she licked her lips in satisfaction.

"What a unique specimen," she smiled. "I’ll add him to the collection in my room, he’ll look good in a glass box".

Her role was complete, Sir Greg was dead.

...

...

"Arghh...!"

"..."

"NOOOO... DIE.. GAH...!"

"..."

"Surround him! KILL HIM!!!"

"..."

"There are too many undead skeletons, call for backup!"

"..."

"He’s turning our dead into more undead soldiers, don’t let him kill you! Survive by all means, survive! Garghhhh...!"

"..."

"He’s turning us!"

"..."

"Stand your ground, FIGHT!!!"

"..."

"NOOOOO... RETREAT...!"

"..."

The street was dyed red.

Blood flowed like a river, thick, slick and nauseating amid a mountain of flesh even as more and more dead Centaurs were animated into undead by the Demon Necromancer, increasing his advantage.

Even the B Rank Warriors and Archers sent by the Falaniondor Army couldn’t stop him, not even the A Rank Warrior as the Necromancer’s zombies singlehandedly gave the Falaniondor Army a run for their money.

Within 5 minutes, the Necromancer already killed more than 200 souls!

And finally, the commotion being caused by the Necromancer became big enough to warrant not just the gaze but the presence of 1 of the 3 leaders of the City of Falaniondor.

Before the Councilor arrived, his attack arrived first.

BAM!

A powerful gray arrow cut through the air like an arrow of a God, breaking the sound barrier and tearing its way towards the Demon’s right eye!

The speed of the arrow was impossible to react to.

But just before the attack could hit the Necromancer’s eye, blinding him, his qi flared as he instantly turned incorporeal.

Spectral Form!

The arrow was supposed to harmlessly pass through his body, but at the last moment the arrow suddenly stopped and erupted outwards, exploding into thousands of secondary qi projectiles!

Fragmentation Arrow!

The Councilor didn’t just do this though, he activated another skill.

Mark of the Prey!

Bruno was marked.

Instantly, despite still being in his incorporeal form, Bruno’s heart tightened as he felt like the thousands of qi projectiles suddenly gained a new property that now posed a threat to his life.

But Bruno showed no fear. He wasn’t afraid. Instead, he grinned and his qi flared again.

Bone Armor!

A thick armor of bone instantly emerged, covering all joints and tendons- every corner of the Necromancer’s body, including his face.

The barrage descended.

BOOM... BOOM... BOOM...
