Villain of my own novel-Chapter 247 246. Do I Have The Right?
?A few days later.
A handsome white-haired man walked down the street with a pondering and longing expression.
"Hmmm...." I pondered quite deeply on if I should go to rescue her now or when she asks for it.
'How is she enduring so much? I can't believe Violet had this much endurance in her; she should have contacted me or somebody that can actually rescue her, like me. Of course, there are other options like, me, or me, or me, nah?' I asked myself in confusion.
"Or has she already been rescued?" I halted in my steps and mumbled with a slight frown. I took a step forward to rush towards Violet's parents' guild building, but I instantly halted when I remembered the enlightenment that I received when I was unconscious for most of two weeks.
The realisation that I had was the fact that I am absurdly strong. Heh, of course, everybody knows that, but...
'I use none of it except for my brute strength, I have a sh*t ton of abilities in my arsenal, but I simply swat through everything without using any of my actual abilities....' I muttered in my mind, scolding myself.
I tried to manipulate aether into my eyes, just like I used to manipulate mana. Though I can't see my own eyes without a mirror, I knew for a fact that my iris should be glowing bright golden with vertical black slits, while my sclera would have turned black as well.
Now that I was able to "see" the mana flow and the different coloured attributes of mana, I looked down at my body and activated the mana veins that I copied when I fought against the werewolf in Sector One, before it turned into a gate. I manipulated the aether in them and felt a strange stinging sensation.
(AN: from ch 13: Sector One (3))
'Why is it hurting?' I frowned, because I knew that I wouldn't feel anything if it wasn't anything extreme, though confused, I continued until aether was freely circulating in my lower half of the body.
'Wouldn't it be better if I just go through it all at once?' I pondered inwardly, but before I even reached a conclusion, I shrugged it off and manipulated the aether in all of the mana veins that were there from the start and the sh*t ton of new ones I created in order to move even one step forward, faster, so that I could survive and hunt down those whom I saw as my enemies.
"Argh???" I groaned in pain, as I felt a strong dose of pain after quite a while.
"Hahaha, argh, it's been a while...." I laughed merrily while groaned in pain, I received quite a few odd expressions from the pass biers, but of course, it wasn't a matter of any proper significance, so I ignored it and continued with keeping my concentration on manipulating aether throughout my body.
WHOOOMMM
"?" And with a strange sound, I suddenly felt comfortable, I glanced down and noticed that I was "glowing" in black (?), I looked around and noticed that the people who met my eyes froze in fear while those who didn't, didn't even bother to glance at me, me! a man glowing in black!
"Or is it that they can't see this...." I mumbled under my breath. This conclusion was something that seemed quite possible, so I went with it.
"Now, it's time for my Trishul, guns, and finally THAT!" I remembered quite a few things I never used even though I kept them because I wanted to.
'Trishul, I'll take it out later, so, guns and THAT are remaining.' I muttered in my mind, took out an AR and the silver pistol that Louie gifted me from my white parasite mask.
CLUNK
"It feels quite good to hold it." I mumbled under my breath, tucked the silver pistol in my baggy black trousers, held my AR in my right hand, and took a step forward while manipulating aether in my mana veins.
WHOOSH
"!!!!!" The landscape in front of me instantly changed, and for the first time, I was glad that I shot out towards the sky. I took exactly two steps: one forward to shoot up, and after reaching the height of a skyscraper, I took another step mid-air on a footing made of aether and shot out straight.
'Fast!' I muttered in shock.
SPLASH!
I halted right in the middle of an ocean, in a spot I have never actually been, and before my mind even realised what had just happened, I fell into the ocean. "Blubolbloubloub??" I mumbled underwater while swimming up.
"Phutui!! Cough! Cough?! WTF? Where am I? Don't tell me that I left the human domain with merely two steps." I mumbled in utter disbelief and looked around; fortunate for me, there was a pitch-black trail left behind which I could use in order to get back to the human domain.
"I never been this fast in both of my lives; sure, I was strong enough to destroy the entire world, but never this fast. Damn, I feel like sh*t when I say it out of my own mouth, no wait," I suddenly realised something.
"I didn't really destroy sh*t, I did absolutely nothing, did I? All my life, which I thought I did my best to survive, pushing through the limit, in ever second of my life! Nothing! None of it was actually true!! Hahahaha, Seol So-Young, Seol So-Young, Seol So-Young! I swear on my name that I'll kill you as painfully as possible. I swear."
"I was wondering why I was getting stronger and stronger without even trying; I can't believe all of that was just a delusion! Karma is the absolute weapon? Absolute my a*s! She couldn't draw or imagine a certain shape for that weapon, so she drew one long line and named it Karma! And what was that? How did anybody believe that sh*t anyway? I disappeared without a single trace? Goddammit, at least make some, damn, sense! How can a healthy, normal person disappear without a trace?" I yelled out aloud, and though it may seem gibberish, I wasn't really finding the right words to describe all the things in my mind, about Seol So-Young's "reality" on the mana-less Earth. The same Earth that gained mana and was destroyed by me! Me! Because I couldn't handle my repetitive lives!
"Haaa....f**k." After taking out all the sh*t that was on my mind, I was slightly relieved and began to go through all the good things I saw in Seol So-Young's memories. My father, Vishnu, was alive and well, taking care of my mother, Elena, and my little sister, Luna, who had grown up into a fine beauty, even though she was working now, taking care of both father and mother; she was the one that gave Seol So-Young the permission to publish the remake of my book, even using my name and a small portion of the information about my "original" character.
Which was the "healthy" version of the current me, a sh*t ton weaker too. f𝚛e𝚎𝘄𝒆𝚋𝚗𝚘ѵ𝑒𝚕.𝑐𝘰𝑚
"But do I really have the right to complain about a thing like that?"
"I mean, I am the creator and destroyer of the world I created, creator because, well, you know, because I am the one that created this world, and destroyer because, if I think properly about it, it seems like my existence, it is actually the cause for the laws of this world, changing. Maybe it is because of me, that those laws are bending according to my wishes." I mumbled, closed my eyes, and sighed deeply, remembering what I actually wanted to do.
".... Violet...." I sighed again and disappeared from the spot where I floated as soon as I took a step forward, under the water.
