Villain of my own novel-Chapter 23 22. The Prophecy.

?'Something is going on, but what? Wait... People who know future 4?'

"What? 4?" I yelled.

"What is happening? what is going on?" Jiwoo yelled in panic.

"...." Vinny stood there nonchalant or at least that's what it seemed on the outside.

"Okay. Hmmmmm."

I walked towards Nhifrogr in a calm manner, I can currently only think of only one solution for the unexpected situation and the future. 'GET STRONGER.'

'It finally comes back to the same solution as always huh?'

"Hahahahaha." ƒ𝔯𝗲𝗲𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧oѵℯl.𝒄𝑜m

"..."

"Oi, wake up, I know you're conscious."

"..."

"This mother.... Fuuuu..."

'Hmm... Maybe I should just kill him afterall.'

I girt my teeth to control my temper, though I couldn't careless about this pup's life, I still need information on what's happening and why this weak bi**h appeared in this dungeon where the novel's MC and the Dragon were supposed to fight to death in this dungeon.

I stepped on the pup's head and put some weight on it as if I was trying to crush his head, not that I will mind if he dies from so little pressure.

"UKH."

I increased the weight on his head to seriously crush it this time.

"GAAAAHHH."

'.... Fuuuu, control..... Calm down.'

"Feel like talking now? Hm?"

"..."

"Hahaha." I let out a dry laugh and released my killing intent a bit stronger this time, the pup started to tremble I could feel it below my foot and could literally see his body shaking.

"GUH."

"Let's not make it hard for each other. Hmm?"

"...."

"I'm currently trying my best to hold back the urge to kill you this instant, so be good." I smiled while releasing my killing intent.

"UKH...."

"..."

"..."

'Does he really think I'm joking?' I was genuinely surprised by his unmoving will, I'm sure he is scared beyond belief, because killing intent can damage the mind of a weaker person by installing permanent fear in them, I can feel that this pup has never even tried to trained, so he should not be able to defend his mind much.

"Oi, this is the last time I'm warning you."

"ASK WHAT YOU WANT TO KNOW MORTAL, OR ARE YOU WAITING FOR ME BEG OR PLEAD YOU BY CALLING YOU MASTER?" He suddenly burst out in anger.

"...."

'I didn't ask him anything yet, have I?' I remembered that I have not asked him anything yet and because of the system notification I was too angry about the things not being under my control. I had almost killed him without even asking him anything, at least I calmed down thanks to his sudden out burst.

'Thank you, boi.'

"Ahem..... You should at least say, Yes! You son of....." f𝙧ee𝘄𝐞𝚋𝐧૦ѵeƖ.c𝘰𝓶

"..."

"Anyway, Do you know someone called 'Frostine?'"

Nhifrogr opened his eyes wide in shock, he tried to turn and look at me, but as his head was pinned down he looked at me from the corner of his eye, I noticed his surprised expression and became a bit happy inwardly but didn't show it on my face.

"Do you kn.."

"HOW DO YOU KNOW 'THE FROST QUEEN' MORTAL?" He cut me off and asked me a question without answering my question.

'Frost queen, huh....' a bitter smile appeared on my face, I felt a sharp pain in my heart when he mentioned Frostine's title, I was going to explain to him that she was a Dragon and specializes in Frost magic if he didn't recognize her, but he did.

"Hahaha. Frost queen huh..." I chuckled bitterly as I dully remembered the moments I spent with her.

"Anyway, is she alive?" This was the question I wanted to ask if I ever meet any Dragon because it is currently 2023 and the year I died was 2035, so we are in the past and I had a bit of hope that she would be alive, at least in my logic. I know that it's just selfish and wishful thinking, but I still hoped that she would be alive.

".... SHE.... DIED ABOUT 20,000 YEARS AGO,..... AS SHE ONE DAY WENT MISSING IN SOME WEIRD PORTAL AND NEVER RETURNED, THAT'S WHAT I READ ABOUT HER IN SOME BOOK."

I don't know what he was worried about and why he was being so careful, but when he said that she died, I felt my heart sink and I felt like something had shattered in me, soon by vision became blurry and I felt a wet sensation on my cheeks, I touched my cheek.

"Eh?"

I knew why he took some time to continue after he mentioned about Frostine's death, before I even knew it I was already crying.

"I see, so she died, huh... Okay.... Fuuu, so she is really dead... Ok."

I removed my leg from Nhifrogr's face and walked around wiping my tears while trying to digest the news of her death. It felt weird, I knew about Frostine's death but hearing from someone else... Just felt too painful.

SNIFFLE

"..."

"Anyway, Vinny, you ask him about that Black Dragon." I walked back into the dungeon room as I got the answer for my doubt.

"..." Vinny stared at me for a brief moment before walking towards Nhifrogr.

"... What black dragon?" Jiwoo mumbled in a very low tone.

"..... And, Vinny, kill him after you're done with him." I spoke without turning around, walked towards the broken throne and sat on it to fully collect myself.

*

I sat on the broken throne in a completely silent room, I rested both my elbows on the armrest, clasped my hands together as I leaned forward and rested my head on my thumbs which were pressuring my temples as I faced down with my eyes closed. I don't even know if it was simply because I didn't concentrate, but there was pin drop silence, until...

PING

[Trait: Creator's domain skill:??? Activated.]

I ignored the system notification or just didn't care to look at it now.

FLUTTER (3)

PLAP

"Hmm?" I raised my head and noticed Nhifrogr flopped in front of me.

"What's the meaning of this?" I frowned.

".... You can kill him, since, you were the one defeated him." Vinny said.

"..." Jiwoo simply stood there with a nervous expression.

I stood back up and walked towards Nhifrogr whose face was beaten black and blue, it was almost not recognizable. I calmly walked and stood in front of him and looked at him for a brief moment.

"UKH, MORTAL, I CAME HERE TO DELIVER A PROPHESY 'A demon stronger than the demon king will bring destruction to earth.' I WAS SELECTED TO DELIVER IT BECAUSE I WAS THE WEAKEST DRAGON."

"HAHAHAHA. THOUGH IT'S LAUGHABLE, HAHA. YOU CAN KILL ME, MORTAL, YOU ARE STRONGER, SO I WOULDN'T .... I.... I DIDN'T WANT TO DIE, MORTAL."

"YOU WANTED MY KNOWLEDGE, DIDN'T YOU?"

Mana in surroundings trembled and Nhifrogr's body glowed golden, Vinny and Jiwoo stood on guard, but I stood nonchalant because I didn't feel any killing intent from Nhifrogr, so I stared at him and let him do his thing.

WHOOSH

"NOW, KILL ME, MORTAL AND I'LL GIVE YOU MY KNOWLEDGE, THOUGH I'M NOT STRONG LIKE THE OTHER DRAGONS, MY KNOWLEDGE IS THE BEST THAN ANYONE ELSE." He smiled bitterly.

"I'M GIVING YOU MY KNOWLEDGE ON A HUMAN BODY, SO KILL ME IN AN INSTANT AND PAINLESSLY."

CRACK

I snapped his neck with my leg in an instant, which was almost a painless death, I know it is disrespectful but I felt too numb to care.

WHOOSH

"GUH."

I felt a sharp pain in my head which increased in the matter of seconds and continued until I lost consciousness.

Sector five.

In a dark room, a silhouette of man whose lower half was visible with the red light from the System window, a new system notification popped up before him.

[SYSTEM INFLUENCE INCREASED BY 1]

He grinned showing his Vampire fangs.

"Finally. Finally something different from my pasts is happening."

"Hahahahaha." He laughed like a maniac in the dark room celebrating a new scenario, which he has yet to experience.
