Villain: Ultimate Mutation System in the Alternate World

Unlike Summit City, this place was massive, with towering skyscrapers and wide streets.

The roads were so spacious that they could fit up to 8 cars side by side.

Above, bustling metros crisscrossed the skyline, while skyways connected the towering buildings, showcasing the bustling ergy of this sprawling metropolis.

Underg were subway train stations that connected one region to another, facilitating traffic in this place due to the sheer number of people who lived there.

In fact, this place was so huge that it had five walls dividing it.

The most ctral wall was where the richest and most influtial people lived.

The furthest from the cter, also known as the Fifth Region, was where most workers and ordinary citiz lived.

In terms of landmass, it was the largest among the regions because it contained mountainous regions, agricultural areas, industrial sectors, and multiple small size cities.

This was the place where George and Mellissa decided to buy a house, mainly because everything from st Region to 4th region cost way more than in Summit City.

And ev after choosing a place here, all the money that Reign had giv them wasn't ough to buy a house.

It was fortunate that Cyril, out of the goodness of her heart, let them borrow money.

In a two-story café nestled in the heart of a bustling commercial area in the Fifth Region, stood a newly rovated coffee shop.

At a table inside, three people were currtly seated.

Cyril, Melissa, and George sat together, taking sips of coffee and bites of cake.

They had arrived in this area a month ago, and Cyril, with her inheritance, decided to op a coffee shop first.

The cost for land for this place was high, but she didn't mind, as she had money to burn.

However, instead of a happy face for beginning her new life, Cyril looked sad as she observed Melissa and George having a hard time adjusting to this place.

She didn't know the two of them very well, but Reign was the person who helped her escape her family.

And in a way, the majority of her wealth right now was because Reign killed everyone for her.

"Do you think he's still alive?" Melissa asked, breaking the ice.

It was a question that had be weighing heavily on George and her.

In Gre Valley City, information about demons and the corrupted was more readily available, so it didn't take long for them to discover what had happed to Summit City.

The corrupted invaded Summit City seemingly out of nowhere, catching its forces off guard.

Despite the best efforts of the military, the local organization, and utilizing all available manpower, the sheer number of corrupted overwhelmed them.

Forts were decimated, and slowly but surely, the corrupted advanced rapidly.

To make matters worse, the corrupted has the ability to turn their prey into one of them, making the situation more dangerous with every passing momt.

Wh the horde reached Summit City walls, the number of corrupted, according to reports, had reached 300,000.

The walled city tried its best to hold them back until backup arrived, with the weapons above the walls becoming their only means of survival.

Cannons, missiles, and other defsive measures echoed thunderously as Summit City made a last stand against the corrupted.

The people who wt to check the aftermath stumbled upon some data documting the tire ordeal, and what they found was nothing short of a desct into hell.

The videos showed the frantic efforts of the defders, the brutal attacks of the corrupted, and the desperate struggle for survival within Summit City's crumbling walls.

In the d, Summit City was left in ruins, its once bustling streets reduced to rubble and ash.

Wh reinforcemts finally arrived, they deemed it too late to salvage what remained of the city.

Instead, their focus shifted to rescuing the surviving inhabitants, prioritizing those who were wealthy ough to afford sanctuary within the Sanctum.

For the rest, there was only devastation and death, as Summit City fell to the merciless tide of darkness.

"I'm sure that guy is okay , there's no way he would die ," George chuckled trying to act tough , Reign was his only way of saving Anna , so he had to trust him.

"You're right, I'm sure ev the Corrupted would run away from him," Melissa force a smile trying to sound more positive.

Cyril, witnessing the playful banter betwe Mellissa and George, couldn't help but admire their loyalty as frids of Reign.

Unaware of the true extt of Reign's strgth, she assumed they were merely trying to cope with the situation through humor.

They tried to check the list of rescued individuals, but unfortunately, Reign's name was nowhere to be found.

"Do you guys want more coffee? " Cyril asked trying to lift up the mood of everyone.

"You're really kind. You're doing all of this ev though your job is done. Thank you," Mellissa expressed, trying to show her appreciation.

"I'm not kind at all, and I'm indebted to Mr. Rain in some way, so this is just me paying him back," she replied with a touch of humility.

Her refreshing personality made her instantly likable to both George and Mellissa.

'If only Anna could be this well-mannered... I'm sure Reign will fall for her, ' George sighed, admitting that Cyril, in terms of overall quality, was much more feminine and likable.

And the most impressive part was, she wasn't like this because she was weak or fragile; she was pretty strong in her own right.

But wh she was not on a mission, she didn't emit any type of rough or dangerous aura at all.

"By the way, ar't you going to apply for your promotion?" Mellissa asked.

She had tried becoming a broker again in the Veiled Nights in this city, but this place was on another level.

Without any backing, she was pretty much not going anywhere, so she decided to wait for Reign to come.

However, that option was still uncertain.

But if she somehow got affiliated with Cyril, th she would have some connection with a gold ranking member.

"Not yet. I'm still adjusting in this city," Cyril replied, not dying or confirming it.

However, in her heart, she felt there was no longer any need for her to join the Veiled Nights.

***

BOOOOOM!

With one attack, hundreds of corrupted where destroyed , they did not ev knew what hit them .

Reign continued to destroy anything that dared to get close to him.

His movemts were quick and filled with raw power.

The corrupted creatures, feared by many, were nothing but ants in the face of his overwhelming strgth .

BOOOOOM!

BOOOOOM!

With each strike, he proved that he was a force to be reckoned with, effortlessly dispatching his emies ev without trying at all.

[System: You can absorb the Corrupted, but you will only gain .5% experice from them due to the filtering process required.]

'At least they're not completely useless, 'Reign thought to himself.

.5% perct was low, but it was better than nothing.

And considering the sheer number of them coming for him, that .5% would accumulate fast.

"ARC!" He summoned his most powerful puppet, and ordered it to kill everything on site without wasting too much ergy.

As for him, he decided to elongate and sharp his claws, slashing through everything with minimum movemts to conserve ergy.
