DOOMED TO BE A VILLAIN

Chapter 29 CHAPTER 29: BREAKING OUT OF THE MONSTER WAVE



"Fwoooooooohhh…"

Davies took a deep breath as he stood right in the middle of the monsters, but due to the blizzard he had created and was controlling with his mana, he wasn't being attacked by the monsters… yet.

Though Davies wasn't being attacked by the monsters currently, he still needed to get out of this place quickly because he could not hold the blizzard forever as even now, he was already feeling the strain from creating the blizzard and maintaining it with his mana.

With that said, Davies quickly formed an ice sword before beginning to use his snow-sensing skill to find his way out of the fortress as he obviously could not see the way out... thanks to the blizzard.

[You know, you're lucky] Miya said suddenly.

'What do you mean?' Davies intoned.

[This place is like a custom-made playground for someone like you who uses the ice element] she explained.

'True… I wouldn't be able to do things like this otherwise,' Davies thought as he looked at the blizzard storming all around him.

After a few seconds, Davies finds a way out, turns toward the entrance, and begins to move quickly. He hadn't run a few meters when he ran into a snow wolf that quickly charged at him the moment it noticed his presence, but it was quickly bisected by Davies's sword as he ran and swung his sword, not bothering to give it a second look.

Davies continued running towards the entrance of the fortress and on his way there he met a lot of monsters that attacked him, but he quickly killed the ones he could kill easily and dodged the attacks of the ones that would take more than one attack to kill.

Finally, he was almost out of the ice fortress but now he had a different problem. The monsters that he had avoided killing as he ran had ended up chasing him.

Initially, he didn't pay any attention to it as their numbers were too small, but after a while, they had ended up accumulating to become quite a lot, and such a huge movement in the blizzard gave the monsters a direction to follow so the monsters that were chasing Davies began to increase greatly.

'This isn't working,' Davies thought as he flipped to avoid another monster and looked back at the gradually increasing number of monsters chasing after him.

[It was a good plan, but don't you know that in situations like this, nothing ever goes according to plan] Miya said.

"Now is not a good time for your words of wisdom, Miya," Davies replied as he formed an ice spear and shot it into the mouth of a snow lizard that had lunged at him with its mouth wide open, looking to crush him with its jaws.

[Whatever…]

[What are you going to do now?]

'Well, I have two options,' he dodged an ice armadillo that was rolling towards him by jumping over it and letting it roll behind him to collide with the monsters on his tail. The ice armadillo did end up colliding with the monsters coming after Davies, but it barely reduced the number of the monsters by ten when it was overwhelmed and swallowed in the monster wave.

It had hardly made a dent in the monster wave chasing Davies causing him to click his teeth when he saw the weak outcome,

"Tch…"

'Back to where I was, there are two options…'

'For the first… like you so stupidly said earlier, I could YOLO my way out of this one and kill as many monsters I need to, to ensure that I escape successfully,' Davies told Miya the first option as he continued running, not pausing for a single moment, as if he did, he'd be swallowed by the monster wave.

[What's the second option?] Miya asked, intrigued, as even though the first option sounded extremely interesting and promised her a good show, she still wanted to hear the second option to know if it was an even crazier idea that promised even better entertainment.

'...' Davies stayed silent as he could hear it in her voice that she was enjoying this situation.

[Say it] Miya asked, but Davies still stayed silent,

'...'

[Come on, say it]

'...'

[Come on, please…?]

'...'

[Pleaseeeee] Miya drawled inside Davies's head with an annoying tone, causing Davies to give in as her constant bickering was annoying him and making him lose concentration on the most important thing right now, his survival.

'I'll do this,' Davies replied as he burst out of the range of the blizzard he had created and appeared at the entrance of the fortress.

[Do what?] she asked as she didn't notice him doing anything different from what he was previously doing.

"Now would be a good time to do something, glasses girl," Davies called out as he stopped running suddenly, but still sliding forward on the icy ground due to inertia.

He no longer bothered to run, even though the monsters had also come out of the blizzard's range and were now rushing his way.

[Eh? What are you doing?] Miya almost freaked out at Davies's decision to stop running, even though the monsters were rushing toward him,

[Why do you look like you're embracing death] she rattled off at the speed of a machine gun, totally forgetting that Davies had called out to someone just as he stopped running.

Just as the monsters were closing in on Davies, Tisha suddenly appeared in the air out of nowhere and landed beside him.

"Telekinetic blast!" She called out as she used her condensed telekinetic force into the form of an orb the size of a tennis ball and then shot it toward the monster wave.

*FWOOOOMMM*

The telekinetic blast sent the monsters flying back and also sent snow and ice everywhere, almost creating another blizzard. They were lucky they were on flat land, otherwise, that attack would have caused an avalanche.

The snow that was sent flying because of the telekinetic blast did not reach Tisha or Davies because Tisha had used a barrier to prevent the snow from blasting against them.

"What the hell??" Davies muttered.

[...] even Miya was speechless, and that wasn't something that happened regularly.

As the snow and ice dust flying around cleared, the sight that fell upon their eyes was huge devastation to the snowy field and the front part of the ice fortress where the monsters chasing Davies were.

'How in the hell does she use that kind of attack, cause this kind of destruction…'

'... and still manage to not kill a single monster…???' Davies thought with amazement as he looked at the monsters that had been thrown all over the place yet not sustaining any injuries and then at Tisha who stood beside him.

[...]

His eyes fell on a pair of familiar-looking earbuds in her ear that had been exposed by the wind blowing her hair all over the place, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it.

"Hey? How did you know where I was," Tisha asked with a slight pout, her question bringing Davies out of his thoughts.

"... Well, you have been following me since I left you guys," Davies responded without a change in his cold demeanor, neither his facial reaction nor his voice betraying his inner amazement.

"... but that was before I hid?"

"... Do you have a special eye skill that can see everything like the Sharingan?" Tisha asked with stars in her eyes like she did not just devastate a battlefield… even though she didn't kill any monsters, it still counts.

[Yeah, how did you know where she was? Even I thought she had left after we could no longer sense her] Miya asked the same question.

"... I didn't know where you were," Davies simply said,

"Eh?" Tisha tilted her head cutely, not understanding his words.

"I didn't know where you were and simply called for you… you gave yourself away," Davies stated.

"EHHHH?"

'Someone as curious about me as she is, wouldn't stop following after she started, so it was pretty obvious that she was hiding somewhere,' Davies explained to Miya.

"You could have chosen to stay hidden though," Davies said to Tisha, but the girl just enthusiastically shook her head and said,

"No way… Tisha will protect and stand beside her knight in shining armor!" she said with a bright smile and her right hand on her chest like some kind of declaration.

[Eh?]

'... what nonsense is she saying?' Davies's cold face cracked for the first time today as a look of pure confusion and bewilderment was plastered on his face.
