Second Coming Of A Villain Chapter 40: Akuma no Shita
"No," Maverick replied, shutting his eyes as he tried to absorb the large amount of information he had just received. It was overwhelming for him; he never expected the power levels of this world to be so complicated and intricate.Not only were the materials needed to break through to the next level hard to obtain, but even if one managed to gather them, there was still the chance of dying in the process, turning insane, or worse—mutating into a grotesque creature.Unlike in his world, where one only had to guard against developing an inner demon while cultivating, the challenges of this world were far more intense.Sighing in frustration and exhaustion, Maverick quickly turned his attention to the skills he had just unlocked as he massage his eyebrows. Immediately, his eyes lit up with anticipation.---[3 Skills.]"Show me the first skill," Maverick commanded without hesitation. Perhaps one of them could significantly boost his strength.[Beep!][Skill Name: Akuma no Shita (Devil's
Second Coming Of A Villain Chapter 41: Exploring The New World
Bang!Dust and debris shot skyward in a violent plume as the ground trembled beneath Maverick’s feet. The force of the impact rippled outward, spreading cracks like a spiderweb across the concrete.Rumble!With a deafening roar, the compromised section of the garage collapsed. The structural pillar, weakened and barely holding on, gave way entirely. Hundreds of zombies caught beneath the rubble were obliterated. Flesh and bones were crushed into indistinguishable pulp under the immense weight of falling rocks and twisted metal rods.Maverick didn’t wait to marvel at the destruction as the cracks reaches his side. He instinctively retreated deeper into the garage, his boots scraping against the unsteady ground. The section he moved to had been spared collapse, its supporting pillar still intact and holding firm.Standing at the edge of safety, Maverick’s gaze swept over the carnage. Seeing this, he knew he has reduced their numbers, meaning he is free, for now. With the Gamma Level 3 z
Second Coming Of A Villain Chapter 42: Life And Death Battle With A Sabertooth
Maverick didn’t flinch, his expression calm as the zombie lunged at him with clawed hands outstretched. His speed, already twice that of a peak human or even a normal zombie, gave him a significant advantage. As the creature swiped, he sidestepped fluidly, evading the attack with practiced ease.Without hesitation, he grabbed the zombie by its filthy, matted hair and slammed its head against the concrete wall with a force that shook the foundation.Pop!The sound was sickening, like the shattering of an overripe watermelon. Blood and brain matter exploded outward, splattering the wall in a grotesque display. Maverick didn’t even blink at the mess. He was already scanning his surroundings, his eyes locking onto three more zombies shambling toward him.Two of the undead were horribly disfigured, their flesh partially melted from what appeared to be fire damage. Their skin sagged, revealing blackened muscle and bone beneath, yet they continued to stagger and crawl forward, it was like th
Second Coming Of A Villain Chapter 43: Life And Death Battle
Suddenly, a glowing orange paw appeared behind Maverick. He instinctively sidestepped, but it was a fraction too late. The paw swiped across his back, leaving a deep gash that sent blood spraying into the air.Maverick gritted his teeth against the searing pain. He couldn't believe how lightning-fast the Sabertooth's reaction speed was. Its attacks came in relentless waves, offering no reprieve—completely unlike the partially mutated zombie, which always needed a short pause before attacking again.Without a moment to spare, Maverick rolled to his side and turned, only to find the Sabertooth’s massive paw already arcing toward his face. Knowing fully well that the attack can smash his face to pulp, Maverick quick reflexes kicked in. Quickly raising his twin axes, he crossed them in front of him in a desperate defensive posture.BANG!The force of the blow slammed into him like a freight train, sending shockwaves through his body and crushing his internal organs. Maverick’s body was hu
Second Coming Of A Villain Chapter 44: Final Death and life battle
Roarrr!!!Maverick felt as if his head had been struck by lightning as the roar pierced straight into his skull, making him stagger backward. His senses were distorted, and he felt dizzy and disoriented.Sensing this opportunity, the Sabertooth turned into afterimages and appeared before Maverick within the blink of an eye, its claws lifted high as it slammed down toward him with full force.BOOOM!A terrifying force, propelled by unimaginable might, slammed straight into Maverick like a super-fast flying dragon.In just one strike, Maverick felt as though all the bones in his body had turned to powder, his organs felt completely destroyed. His twin axes shattered instantly into multiple shards that scattered everywhere, while his body couldn't resist the impact. He soared backwards through the air like a meteor, flying off the three-story building and crashing straight into another structure nearby.With that attack, the Sabertooth strolled to the edge of the three-story building and
Second Coming Of A Villain Chapter 45: Gravely injured
The knife stabbed into the Sabertooth’s chin, upward, dealing deadly damage to the vascular structures and soft tissues in the neck and throat region.This led to excessive bleeding as the carotid arteries—major arteries supplying blood to the brain, face, and neck—were severed. The rupture or puncture of the carotid artery caused rapid and severe bleeding, but that alone wasn’t enough to put the beast down. What sealed its fate was the damage to the jugular veins, large veins that return deoxygenated blood from the head and neck to the heart. The damage caused significant bleeding as well.However, due to its incredibly high vitality, the Sabertooth didn’t die immediately. It continued struggling violently for a while, before finally going limp.[Ding!]Hearing the notification, Maverick felt as though he’d finally escaped the depths of hell.[Congratulations, you've eliminated a peak Gamma-3 Sabertooth. 10 Energy Points Extracted.]Maverick didn’t even glance at the notification. He
Second Coming Of A Villain Chapter 46: Going Back To The Tech Company
Grabbing the beast core, Maverick didn’t hesitate to absorb it. He knew time was of the essence. In his current weakened state, any beast daring to stride into Sabertooth territory had to be either incredibly powerful or at least on equal footing with the apex predator. If such a creature stumbled upon him in such a frail and vulnerable state, it would snap him in half and devour him in one bite without hesitation.Giving a swift mental command to his biolens, Maverick initiated the absorption process. His eyes fixed on his palm as faint energy began to seep from the beast core, flowing into him. Slowly, the vibrant hues of the core dimmed, its once radiant luster fading entirely. Within seconds, Maverick had drawn out all the energy it held.A chilling sensation coursed through his arm, spreading from his palm to his chest, then directly to his heart, before dispersing into his limbs. The pain in his body dulled, replaced by a cool, soothing comfort. Unable to suppress the reaction,
Second Coming Of A Villain Chapter 47: Return Of The Injured Maverick
They had a cautious expression on their faces, and their weapons were drawn as though preparing to fight to the death.Looking at them, Maverick immediately knew they had not been lazing around either, as their aura seemed stronger than before.Meanwhile, as soon as the four guys set their eyes on Maverick, their expressions changed drastically. Maverick's whole body was covered in his own blood. His chest appeared slightly carved in, added with the claw marks on his chest, arms, and bruises on his face, with his hair dusty and messy. Max and the others could swear that no ordinary human would survive in such a condition, even if there was medical equipment around for them to use.“What the hell did this to you?” Max finally couldn't help but yell in shock.Not only him, but Judy, Divine, and Jennifer appeared to be in a state of shock too upon witnessing his condition.To them, the cold, heartless, ruthless bastard of a man called Maverick, who had no issues killing a fellow human in

Chapter 88: Outside
The heavy boots of the group echoed against the cracked marble floors as they descended the final steps of the skyscraper, ignoring the bodies around them, moving from the 44th floor down to the ruined streets of New York. The air outside was thick with a yellowish fog, swirling like ghostly tendrils with each wind through the husk remains of the city.Meanwhile, each of them was clad in a tactical gas mask, the glass lenses reflecting the dim sun filtering through the overcast sky. Their black bulletproof vests fit snugly over their torsos, rifles slung over their hands, pistols holstered at their sides, military bags strapped tight on their back, and jackknives secured for quick access.Maverick killed over 17 of the military members and was able to take all their weapons and grenades so knowing fully well he only have five stronger members, actually, six since he was able to discover Sakura whom after discovering that her members were dead didn't have any hesitation to join his gro
Chapter 87: Goodbye Grandpa and Grandma Wu
"Are these all the people who want to leave with us?" Maverick asked, his eyes sweeping over the seven standing before him—a young woman and a man who seemed like lovers or relatives, a middle-aged man, three young women, and two other men.It was a decent number. Maverick didn’t want to take on too much baggage.His gaze shifted to the fourteen people who had chosen to stay behind. Without a word, he looked at Max and gave a small nod before stepping back.Understanding Maverick’s unspoken command—letting him speak since the group feared Maverick rather than respected him—Max stepped forward, cleared his throat, and addressed the crowd.“We’re leaving, but we’re not taking much of the food. It’s still where it was, and we even unlocked the door. You’ll have to decide how to split it amongst yourselves."But before we go, this is my final question—are you sure you don’t want to come with us? You’re safe for now, but no one knows what kinds of beasts will attack in the future. This dec
Chapter 86: The Day the World Ended
1st POV:I remember the morning so clearly, as if it happened just moments ago. I was in the driver’s seat, hands gripping the steering wheel, humming a soft tune as my boys sat in the backseat, arguing over which cartoon was better. I told them to quiet down, that I had surgery later today and needed a clear head. They groaned in unison, calling me boring. I remember smiling, watching them through the rearview mirror—two little sparks of life, my entire world.Then, the sky erupted.A blinding light swallowed the road ahead, a wave of heat tearing through the world like an angry god had decided to erase us. The ground trembled, glass shattered, and the sound—God, the sound—was unlike anything I had ever heard. My ears rang as metal twisted and screeched. The car flipped. My body slammed against the seatbelt. Darkness consumed me.When I woke up, I was on the ground, dust and smoke filling my lungs. My head pounded, my vision blurred, but through it all, I could hear my boys crying. M

So far, he hadn’t encountered a threat capable of pushing him to the brink of death, which was why he hadn’t used his energy points to upgrade any of his stats yet. However, due to activating Armor Skin and Akuma no Shita, he had already expended about five energy points in total.“Biolens, how come my vitality is at
Chapter 84: Dorian & Killer Shot: A Bitter Meeting
While Maverick lay unconscious on the ground inside the underground lab side, Dorian who Maverick thought will die the moment he stepped out staggered through the ruined cityscape, his left arm clutching his bleeding side. The air was thick with radiation, making his breaths feel like he was inhaling fire due to how weak he currently was. Burnt-out cars lined the cracked road, their husks melted and twisted, remnants of the world before the apocalypse. GrrrrrrrrrrThe occasional zombie groaned echoes in in the distance, dragging itself through the rubble, sniffing for the scent of flesh to devour.One of them—a shriveled, half-melted thing—lunged at Dorian with a sickening hiss. Seeing this, a glint flash through Dorian's eyes as a knife flashed, slicing through its throat. It gurgled, collapsing, only for another to crawl out from under a wrecked truck. Dorian didn’t waste time. He stomped on its skull, twisting his boot until the head caved in like rotten fruit.“Fucking pesky anim
Chapter 83: Maverick injecting the nanocells
Maverick thought inwardly, imagining how the system will sound if he open it logically.With a sharp click, the latches disengaged.Maverick barely had time to react before an icy fog erupted from the opening seam, spilling out in thick waves. Instinctively —he shoved himself backward, one hand reaching for his gun as he eyed the mist warily fearing it will be a poisonous fog. His breath slowed down visibly in the sudden temperature drop, the frost creeping over the edges of the case.For a tense moment, nothing happened.Then, as quickly as it had appeared, the fog began to dissipate, revealing the contents inside.The interior of the case was pristine white, lined with soft, impact-absorbing foam that molded around a single object at its center—a sealed tube, roughly eight inches tall and four inches wide. The material was reinforced glass, its surface covered in a thin layer of condensation.Inside the tube, a shimmering, light-blue liquid sloshed gently, moving almost unnaturally,
Chapter 82: Killing, Dorian Escaped.
“Thanks, Captain, for launching me across the place to take the briefcase. Now, I guess this is where we say goodbye, and one of us departs to the realm of the dead? No?”Maverick’s words hung in the air, but Dorian wasn’t listening. Not really. His breathing was ragged, his fists clenched so tightly his knuckles cracked. His eyes burned—not just from the flames licking at his skin but from the seething fury that boiled beneath the surface."You think this is over?" Dorian growled, blood dripping from his clenched teeth. "You think you've won?"Maverick tilted his head, unimpressed. "I mean… yeah? I’ve got the briefcase, you’re bleeding like a gutted pig from maybe seemingly over using of your flame power, and you’re about to die from my gun. Pretty clear-cut, don’t you think?"Dorian ignored him. "You will regret this. Whatever’s in that briefcase—it won’t save you, rather it will bring more chaos to your life. You don’t know who you’re messing with. The moment you step outside with
Chapter 81: Thanks, Captain
Maverick exhaled, rolling his shoulders as he eyed Dorian with that same indifferent gaze—like a man sizing up a particularly unimpressive meal. Dorian, on the other hand, was all heat and fire, his smirk thinning as he took a slow step forward, flames licking at his knuckles."You look tense, Captain," Maverick mused, dodging a jab without even looking. "Maybe it’s the stress of command. Maybe it’s the unresolved childhood trauma. Or maybe it’s just because you're used to throwing punches at people who can’t hit back."Dorian’s eye twitched, but he didn't respond. He knew Maverick was just trying to get under his nerves which he wouldn't allow.Another flaming fist cut through the air. Maverick leaned back, dodging by mere inches, his movements infuriatingly lazy."You always this sloppy?" Maverick muttered. "I mean, for someone who calls himself a captain, you swing like an amateur. Who trained you? Drunk chimps? I bet if you have a child, the child will be much slower."Dorian grow
Chapter 80: Breaking his words (Warrior VS Soldier)
Technically, for the Captain to be able to ignite fire using his hands or body is something no one will ever believe in the past era, after all, humans, infact, living things weren't engineered to do such thing but here he is with fire burning from his arms and legs. For such a thing to happen, it begins with a shift deep within his cellular structure, a silent, invisible transformation. His body had developed an extraordinary ability to absorb and harness radiation—particularly, high-frequency electromagnetic radiation, like gamma rays the moment he absorbed a certain fire related beast core. This wasn't just a fluke mutation; it was the result of an intricate biological adaptation. The cells, rather than breaking down under the stress of radiation exposure, began to store the energy in a specialized organelle, a modified version of mitochondria that was now a fusion of bio-organic material and quantum-activated nanomatter, main reason he doesn't care about wearing mask. As these
