Villain: Ultimate Mutation System in the Alternate World-Chapter 621: Greed In Me Part 3

"Say that again, and I swear," she warned.

"Oh, so now your solution to being called out for being violent is to get even more violent. No wonder I like you. We have a lot in common."

Michaela's face flushed, but she didn't back down. "I'm not violent—I'm just making sure you're not a threat."

Reign chuckled, amusement dancing in his eyes. "You really like to lie to yourself, or maybe you're just too self-righteous to admit it?"

Her jaw clenched, the anger bubbling just below the surface. "I don't need to justify myself to you."

"Of course you don't," Reign leaned in slightly.

She glared at him, not giving an inch. "I know it. You can't be like me. Who are you? And how did you steal all this power?"

"Stole? I didn't steal anything. I earned it,"

Technically, he wasn't lying. He had earned it, in his own way—by beating the crap out of that voice inside his head and fighting through every challenge it threw his way.

"I'm not playing games with you!" she lashed out, sending a burst of divine energy toward him.

But Reign just waved it off like it was nothing.

Fighting him with divine energy was useless. It had no effect on him, not after everything he'd absorbed.

"Let's talk first about your current situation here," Reign said, his voice calm and calculating. "You need me. No, the whole of Heaven needs me."

Michaela's expression hardened, her eyes narrowing. "I don't need anything from you."

He chuckled.

"Deep down, you know it's true. Without me, Heaven's in trouble. You might not want to admit it, but Lucifer and Lilith will soon destroy this whole place, and I know you're not strong enough to fight. In fact, I don't think you can even leave this city."

Her face paled for a moment, "How did ..."

She paused, realizing she was admitting her own weakness.

"You don't really need to be shocked. You're probably the strongest in Heaven, but instead of fighting on the front line, you're holed up here. It didn't take a genius to figure it out, and I am one."

Reign might be crazy, but he was still really smart.

Michaela's eyes narrowed, irritation flashing through her after being read.

"So how about we make a deal?" he offered.

This time, Michaela didn't reject the idea outright. In fact, she paused, considering it more carefully.

Reign took her silence as a sign that she was willing to talk, and with that, he wasted no time in moving the conversation forward.

"You want to know my offer, right?"

There was no response.

"I'm going to kill Lilith and Lucifer for you and fix the problem that none of those incompetent archangels could finish. "

Michaela frowned, her eyes narrowing at the mention of their names. "You think you can kill them? You've never even faced them."

"I don't need to face them to know that I will win. What you're sensing right now is just the tip of the iceberg; I'm way more powerful than you can ever imagine."

He sounded too arrogant, but for some reason, she could tell he wasn't lying, and it made her more wary.

Because if what he was saying was the truth, then he could very well be a greater threat than the devils.

It was like trying to close the door with a lock to keep out invaders, only for that very lock to end up trapping her instead.

"And what do you want in return? I must warn you, depending on your answer, I will decide whether to accept or kill you. I'm also far stronger than you think."

Reign almost burst into laughter after seeing her feisty attitude. "Wow, you really are my type. You should become my woman."

CLANG!

Her sword appeared mere millimeters from his eyes, but he was able to deflect it.

"Stop spouting nonsense..." she gritted her teeth.

"I'm not," he raised his hand. "I really took a liking to you, which is pretty rare, believe me. So, be my woman, and I'll do you a favor."

Her grip tightened around her sword. "You have no idea who you're dealing with, do you? I would never allow myself to be treated like an object."

Reign didn't flinch.

"I don't really care. Strength is everything, and as someone who is unrivaled, it's my right to take what I want." His voice grew colder.

"Me negotiating with you was me showing you some courtesy, so stop pushing your luck, or else..."

His divine energy changed, no longer just holy but now dominating and oppressive.

She unconsciously took a step back. She had felt power before—immense, god-like power—but this was different.

It wasn't just the light or the radiance of divinity; it was his presence that made her wary.

However, her pride as the strongest warrior of Heaven wouldn't let this slide, so she too released her divine energy.

Their auras clashed, a powerful force that shook the space around them.

"You think you can intimidate me?"

Reign's eyes narrowed. "I'm warning you, don't push me, or you won't like it when I get really serious."

Her jaw clenched, but not because she was afraid of fighting—rather, it was the potential destruction it could cause in the city that concerned her.

If this city fell, everything would follow like a domino. She couldn't let that happen, no matter what.

"Fine, I agree with you. If you manage to kill those two, then I'll become your woman," she reluctantly gave in.

"You made the right choice," Reign let out a smile, and this made her relax a little— which was a mistake.

In an instant, he closed the gap between them and planted a kiss on her lips.

She tried to push him away, but he intensified the kiss, his tongue forcing its way into her mouth, making her head spin.

When he was satisfied, he let her go, and she ended up kneeling on the ground, stunned by the kiss.

"That was just the down payment. Wait for me here, because after I'm done with those two, I'll completely make you mine." His wings unfolded, and he shot through the sky in a beam of light.
