Villain Overkill
Prolog
In the middle of a fight, a man almost falls if not for his bloody sword that is embedded in the ground, around him, he is surrounded by terrible-looking monsters.
The monster looked at him with a predator look, but they didn't make a move, waiting for orders to come first.
The man was breathing heavily, his eyes showing a glimpse exhaustion and anger stored within.
He looked at a man his age standing not far away from him, who was grinning without a single remorse pestered on his face, as if that bastard hadn't betrayed him a while ago.
Seonwoo muttered with a hurtful expression.
Seo Seonwoo
"Why are you doing this, ▇▇▇▇?"
The man approached Seonwoo, his expression unchanged. He tilted his head at Seonwoo's question, amused by the look on his face, and indifferently answered.
▇▇▇▇
"Did you forget what world did we live right now, Seonwoo?"
▇▇▇▇
*The man chuckled, his voice dripping with mockery* "How naive are you to trust someone so deeply in this catastrophe?"
▇▇▇▇
"Everything changes in time of desperation, Seonwoo. Why can't I?"
The man laughed, covering his face with one hand.
Seonwoo's heart pounding, he seems deeply shaken by the revelation, he can't believe it.
He would never be, they've known each other for almost a decade. But instead it turns out like this?
He tried his best to calm down, his mind racing, as he asked the questions he had been questioning all along in this fight.
Seo Seonwoo
"Such nonsense... what is your reason for doing this? Power? Answer me, ▇▇▇▇"
The silence is deafening, it's as if the world is paused. Anxiety crept more into his mind as the following response makes him speechless.
▇▇▇▇
"... What's my reason? Interesting, that's how curious you are."
His expression is unreadable as he slowly spoke his mind.
▇▇▇▇
"If you want to hear my answer, well, I envy you, Seonwoo."
He paused to see Seonwoo's reaction and continued.
▇▇▇▇
"You're always the center of attention. Before and after this chaos, it's as if you are the main character in this desperate world."
The man let out a soft sigh. He turned his body towards Seonwoo and spoke indifferently.
▇▇▇▇
"And yes, I want power. Getting rid of you might make it easier for me to get it."
He raised his right palm, a strange symbol formed on the ground, and more monsters were summoned.
The cool breeze goes to the surface. The man's eyes are cold and piercing. He is no longer the person he knew before.
A chill ran down Seonwoo's spine as strange pressure filled the air.
Seonwoo's instincts erupted, and he felt the presence of monsters lurking in the shadows. His eyes darted around, he gripped the sword tighter and braced himself for what was coming next.
He straightened up as his stamina started to return again, his breathing is even despite the pain. Raising his bloody sword, he pointed it unwaveringly at his former friend.
His expression was calm, but his eyes were burning with a mixture of anguish, anger, and above all, disappointment at how this unfolded.
Seo Seonwoo
'After everything… is this where we’ve ended up?' he thought helplessly, he steady himself, ready to confront ▇▇▇▇ once more.
