Should I Become a Villain?

The smell of blood filled the room after Radmilo suddenly appeared there. Everyone in unison looked at the man's black hooded cloak, which was covered in blood.

Muramasa could even see that Radmilo's plate boots were stained with blood because they were sitting next to each other. The blood dripped onto the floor, indicating that Radmilo had just encountered someone or something before arriving here.

"Today, I'm in the mood to train with monsters in the dungeon. Suddenly, I thought of you guys and decided to come here. I'm a very considerate leader, right?"

Just like a while ago, no one responded to Radmilo's words. Everyone fell silent with their eyes fixed on the man.

Meanwhile, Radmilo brought back his memories before coming to their meeting. He chose to stop time and train in a high-level dungeon to test his skills again.

At that time, he thought to monitor what the members of the organization were doing. He knew they were planning something. However, he would not let them because he did not want to face any trouble before he attacked the IRO.

When Radmilo moved his hand to tap on the table, everyone suddenly pulled out their weapons.

"Why are you guys overthinking?" Radmilo was still able to laugh when everyone pointed their weapons at him. Even his expression was fearless, as if Muramasa's weapons were nothing to him.

"I'm sure Elena said that you know everything about us. It seems you are just saying nonsense," Muramasa said as he brought the tip of his sword closer to Radmilo.

It was a single-edged sword with a curved blade. Even though it was poorly designed for stabbing, it did not matter because each slash was extremely dangerous. When Muramasa slashed someone with the sword, that person would die as a result of his curse.

Radmilo already knew about it. This was not the first time the cursed sword had been pointed at his neck. He had many fights with Muramasa, but the man would not remember it since he went back in time.

"I think you're the one saying nonsense here. That bad sword can't kill me," Radmilo spoke with a smile, deliberately infuriating Muramasa.

The man in the fox mask had great pride in his power. He did not even have triggers like other awakeners that could interfere with the effectiveness of power in battle.

The only trigger for Muramasa's power was 'medium'. He could use inanimate objects as a medium of his power, such as weapons. When he released the curse of death on the sword, then the sword attack would cause death.

Muramasa believed that his power was absolute. No one could escape death. Because of that, he did not take Radmilo's words seriously. Without further ado, he slashed at Radmilo's neck when he realized the man had no magical shield.

"What are you doing?" Radmilo glanced at his injured neck, staying calm. He counted to three inwardly, and a notification window appeared.

[Curse Protection is automatically activated!]

[All curses received will decrease by 100%]

In a few seconds, the wound inflicted by the cursed sword closed rapidly. Radmilo's cloak, which had been ripped by the sword slash, had also returned intact, as if nothing had happened.

Everyone was taken aback. They had never seen anyone who could withstand Muramasa's curse. How did the man do it?

However, the question in Muramasa's mind was different. He wondered what power Radmilo had. Before coming to the meeting, Elena explained that their new leader had a quick attack and could disappear suddenly.

Then Muramasa saw something different today. His hands were shaking from the shock of Radmilo's reaction to his curse. For a moment, he lost his mind as he recalled something important.

System informed Muramasa that his power had a weakness that could render the curse useless. His curse would last even if he died. However, if someone managed to kill him, then that person would become immune to the curse.

Why was that man unaffected by his curse? When he thought about it more deeply, his grip on the sword hilt immediately weakened and the sword fell to the floor.

"Y-you...!" Muramasa felt his voice catch in his throat. When he heard Radmilo laugh, his pupils dilated.

People in the room had no idea what was going on between the two people, so all they could do was wait and see what happened. They did not have a good plan to beat Radmilo. Moreover, the man had managed to escape the curse of death, something they should never underestimate.

Radmilo stopped laughing and then looked at Muramasa seriously. "You already know my secret, huh?"

"Shit. You have something stronger than mine," Muramasa spoke as he looked at his sword on the floor. For more chapters, please visit

It did not take him long to find out what kind of power Radmilo had. If he was sure he had never faced that man before, then that only meant one thing. Radmilo had fought to kill him, but then he returned to the past.

When Elena told him about what Radmilo had done at the meeting yesterday, Muramasa assumed the man had light-fast power. However, now he knew that was not true.

It would make more sense if Radmilo had the power to control time. Not a single awakener had that power. It was a power that fell under the 'Unique Power' classification.

Enrique, who had only been paying attention to the situation, decided to ask Muramasa. "What do you mean, you know his power?" f𝗿e𝙚𝘸e𝐛𝚗𝐨𝙫𝚎𝙡.c𝒐𝐦

"I think he has a unique power," Muramasa then picked up his sword from the floor, ignoring everyone who was shocked.

The Awakeners and Hunters Council made a classification for the power gained by awakeners. The first one was Elemental, the power that awakeners got the most, such as fire, water, air, and so on.

Then the second was Precious, a strong power, but it was divided into parts in different ways. For example, Muramasa had the power to release curses. Other awakeners also had the power of a curse, but the difference was that they only had a curse to bring bad luck, not death.

And the last one was Unique, a power that only a special awakener could have. Maido from IRO and Elena were one of the awakeners with the title 'Unique Power'. Muramasa did not expect to meet Radmilo, who also held the title.

"You can understand me even though this is our first meeting," Radmilo said, realizing that Muramasa did not tell anyone about his power to control time.

Muramasa smiled behind his fox mask. "I must be able to understand other people if I want to survive. I have seen your power today. Therefore, I'll follow you."

His decision made everyone stop pointing their weapons at Radmilo. Once they found out the man had Unique Power, they had to think twice about attacking him. Moreover, Muramasa was not someone who would follow others that easily.

"I'll also follow you," A man with a black-winged eye mask broke the silence with his voice. He was Sean, who could control water.

Unfortunately, Radmilo instead replied, "Who says you can make decisions? Only I can."

"Then what do you want?" Enrique asked carefully. It seemed like he had to stop his plan for attacking Radmilo.

"I'll give you two options. You attack me or I attack you."

"What?"

"You guys are making plans to attack me. Don't you know I can attack you too? I'll give you three seconds to think."

Everyone fell silent in confusion. They had a hard time deciding after seeing what happened to Muramasa. Now they were sure that Radmilo was really that strong.

"Your time is up! You should be proud because I want to use my favorite weapon," Radmilo shouted while pounding the table. A moment later, a double-edged dagger appeared in his hand. It consisted of two curved blades attached to a single hilt.

His first target of the attack was Muramasa, who was sitting beside him. He swung the dagger once and slashed at Muramasa's right arm.

After receiving the attack, Muramasa could feel the pain in his arm. The cut was deep enough that a drop of blood fell on the floor below them. Such an injury would not make him wince in pain.

However, Muramasa was a little offended when he found out that Radmilo was not using his main power. The man relied on the agility he had gained after returning to the past, as if to say that his power was too precious to use in Muramasa.

He quickly dodged when Radmilo was about to make a second attack. "At least use some power on us. Thus, we can fight you seriously."

"If I use my power, then you will be humiliated like your former leader. Why don't you just take my mercy?"

Before anyone could react, Radmilo attacked again. This time, he aimed at Elena. There was no doubt that she would avoid his attack, but the man wanted to show his ability to everyone.

Elena made an effort to avoid the attack, but it was too fast to see. She jumped backward to escape the flying dagger. Even though she knew Radmilo would not kill her, she realized the man was serious about attacking everyone.
