Villain of my own novel

?"Let's fight." I said as my grin deepened.

KROOWOO

We both launched at each other, werewolf was faster than me but I could keep my eyes on him, werewolf ran at my opposite direction we were about to pass each other, werewolf suddenly changed course and appeared right in front of me.

"Fuck."

A curse involuntarily escaped my mouth, werewolf grinned and punched at my face I lifted up my hands and guarded the punch a circular wind pressure formed from the impact. It was heavy, the blow was heavy enough to make my hands shake, it felt like my bones where vibrating.

Werewolves are not known for strength; they are known for their agility. Considering the blow just now it seems to be using its body weight with its speed, my grinned deepened as I realized a fact that the werewolf in front of me is experienced in fighting.

'If it hits me at full speed, it'll be dangerous.'

I thought as I saw the werewolf punch at me again, I dodged to my right and kicked its hands which were heading to my face, it was caught off guard and was off balance, I took the chance and clawed at it, it tried to dodge but it was too late, it took its head back in that instant and jumped back.

SPLURT

It bled from its chest with four claw marks, I grinned, but soon my grin faded as the werewolf vanished from where it stood and appeared right in front of me, punching at my head, I dodged the blow by a centimeter, I felt a wet sensation on my cheek, I lifted my hand to wipe it, and saw my hand, it was blood.

SNICKER

I raised my head at saw the werewolf snickering at me, I grinned, just now it used mana to appear before me, it covered its legs with mana and right after appearing before me the werewolf's mana flow was concentrated on only some particular mana veins.

"Your bad luck is that you're a werewolf."

I started to create new mana veins like the one's it just used, as it was human type monster mana veins are similar.

"Cough."

I coughed up blood, I noticed that it was laughing at me, so I grinned at him as well. Perhaps because my mouth was bloody, it flinched. As we approached one another, I wondered if perhaps I now appeared more like a beast and the werewolf more like a human. The werewolf charged at me at full speed, and I did the same.

"Hahahahaha."

I laughed out loud, we were already in front of each other, and it clawed down at me.

"Pause." I muttered and I came to an abrupt stop.

I took some damage and coughed up blood as I came to a complete stop while moving at full speed and saw the werewolf's clawing down just ahead of me, I clawed down at him with my left hand, it took a step back to avoid him, and I grinned. "Pause." I muttered in a low voice as my left hand came to a halt in mid-air, I drew my right hand back and clenched into a fist, I had created the mana veins it used while punching at me, punching the werewolf's stomach, as my hand came into contact with its stomach I muttered.

"Release."

Two-circular wind pressure formed around my hands as the werewolf's stomach came into contact.

SPLURT

"Eh?" I titled my head in confusion. I was expecting it to fly off into a distance, what happened? I took a step back to see what had happened and noticed a hole twice the size of my fist in the werewolf's stomach, which had broken through its spine.

THUD

'Hmmmm..... shouldn't its fur and hide help to cushion my punch?' 'Did I take more damage than I expected?' 'No, I don't think so.'

"Aha... maybe I'm stronger than I think!" I nodded my head in understanding.

[….]

[….. PIII]

"Hm? Oi, why do you sound disappointed?" I turned to face Pyre who was floating in air and asked him. He stared at me weirdly and turned his back at me, I followed his line of sight and saw a mountain of monster corpses, I stood there in gape with my mouth wide open.

'Today's MVP Pyre.' Chibi with a mustache appeared and announced in my head.

"Ugh."

Pyre healed me and flew into the forest; I followed him with glum expression.

We slashed through the monster hordes and began slowly making our way back to the road where we began when a thunderbolt struck my head and I remembered why we came to sector one.

"Pyre!"

[PIIIIII]

Pyre jumped in surprise as I suddenly yelled his name.

"..."

[...]

".... Pffft, sorry, but can you pfft, search for dungeon of rank- SS?"

[…...PI PIIIPIIPIPIIII PI]

"Pfft, see I'm not laughing pfft."

[PI PIPIPI PIPI]

"Okay, I'm not laughing now, am I?" I somehow held my laugher and said a complete sentence.

[…. PI PIII]

"Okay, sorry, now stop glaring and please look for rank- SS dungeon."

[…. PIII]

He finally turned his back at me, my lips where trembling as I followed him from behind.

"Pfft."

[...]

[PI PIIIPI PI]

"No, no, no, no, I defeated him because I'm stronger."

[PIII PIPIPI PI]

"That, that's because my skill causes damage to me."

[PI PI]

"You too, will get damaged if you suddenly stop while going in full speed."

'mrrrrw'

I snapped my head towards the sound, the voice was so low that it seemed to be on a verge of death, Pyre rushed towards the sound I followed him from behind, soon a blooded fist-sized something came to sight near a rock in the open, I ran towards and very slowly picked it up and ran into the forest as Pyre guarded me.

I found a small cave and entered it, slowly lowering the animal or beast and making my way out, standing guard as Pyre began to heal it.

[PI]

".... Done?"

[PII]

"Hahaha, what're you so happy about?"

I walked into the dark cave and found nothing, I turned to face Pyre. 𝑓𝒓𝚎e𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯𝘰𝐯𝒆𝑙.c𝚘m

"... Pyre, what happened?"

[PII]

"Huh?"

He said to look closely, and my eyes shone bright orange as I concentrated on them. I'm not sure if it was because my eyes were adjusting to the dark or what, but I noticed a black lump at the corner of the cave, and as I approached it, I noticed a pair of blood red eyes with vertical pupils glaring at me.

"Hissss."

It was completely black baby cat with blood red eyes, I liked it instantly, it was glaring at me instead of shivering in fear.

"Hello." I said in soft voice and smiled but what happened next had me froze in spot, this time the cat covered in fear, my mind told me why but I refused believe it.

[PI PI PI]

"Guh." what I refused to believe why confirmed by Pyre's snickering.

'Why? Why me?' I walked out of the cave with my back slumped forward and glum expression.

Sniffle
