Villain: Ultimate Mutation System in the Alternate World

Reign's thoughts were abruptly cut off by loud alarms and the sound of shattering glass echoing through the building.

The noise made it clear that the Hunter Association was now fully aware of the infiltration.

'I knew it. I expected too much from these so-called shinobi to pull it off without any trouble,' he muttered, rubbing his temple.

He couldn't believe he had to jump in for a rescue less than twenty minutes after it all started. .

'Talk about being incompetent,' he sighed to himself. They had seriously underestimated the Hunter Association's defenses. They're so behind on technology, they probably don't even know what a motion sensor was.

[We got the item. Please create a distraction so we can escape,]

Nobu's voice crackled through the walkie-talkie he had left behind earlier.

[Roger]

'It's time to rescue those rookies,' Reign chuckled to himself. He felt like he was better than an actual shinobi when it came to these covert missions, which says a lot .

Grabbing a black cloth from the bag they had left behind, he wrapped it around his face to hide his identity.

Inside the building, the guards were already on high alert. They couldn't believe that someone had the nerve to steal from the Hunter Association.

Moving quickly, they rushed to block all potential escape routes, determined to stop the intruders from getting away.

Among the guards, a few low-ranking hunters had also joined in. Some were just trainees, but even they were more dangerous and capable than the regular humans.

As they took their positions, a group of these new hunters started laughing, confident that the situation would be handled quickly.

"Can you believe someone actually tried to steal from us?" one of them snickered. "This is going to be over in no time. They probably don't even know what they're up against."

"Yeah," another chimed in, smirking. "A bunch of amateurs thinking they can get away with this? They're in for a big surprise,"

The group of young hunters exchanged grins, completely unaware of the real danger lurking. They were too young, too inexperienced to realize that this wasn't just some simple break-in.

"What's that?" one of the hunters said, pointing ahead.

They all turned to see a figure casually walking toward them.

The man had no visible weapons, just wearing simple denim shorts and a white polo shirt. The only thing that stood out was the cloth wrapped around his face, covering his head.

"Who walks into a place like this dressed like that?" another hunter muttered, squinting to get a better look.

"Must be some idiot trying to look like a clown," one of them joked, but his voice wavered slightly.

There was something off about the way the man moved—too calm, too confident.

The hunters, still grinning, started to tense up. The figure continued to approach, unbothered by the attention he was drawing, as if he had nothing to fear.

One of the hunters, still not taking it seriously, stepped forward to intercept him. His hand rested on the hilt of his sword, ready to draw it at a moment's notice.

"Hey! You lost or something?" the hunter called out, trying to sound intimidating as he approached. "This isn't a place for you to be wandering around."

The figure didn't respond. He kept walking, his pace steady and unhurried, as if he hadn't even noticed the hunter's warning.

"Stop right there!" the hunter demanded, drawing his sword halfway out of its sheath, the steel glinting under the dim lights.

STEP!

The hunter's grip tightened on his sword, and he took another step forward, determined to show this intruder that he meant business.

SWOOOOSH!

Before the hunter could even blinked, the figure suddenly vanished from his perspective, closing the distance between them in an instant.

"No!" He shouted in panic, but his reaction was too slow, and was slammed to the ground.

Just as he thought it was over, Reign swung his fist down hard.

BANG!

The impact crushed the hunter's head with a sickening sound, like smashing a pumpkin.

The remaining hunters, driven by anger, charged forward, their swords drawn and ready to strike. They planned to overwhelm the intruder with numbers.

But as they got closer, it became easier for him to kill them. He grabbed the katana from the dead hunter and swung it in a powerful, sweeping motion.

SLASH!

The blade cut through the hunters waists . They barely had time to react before their bodies fell in a single, clean cut.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The other half of their bodies fell to the floor, followed by the lower halves, which dropped with a sickening thud.

THUD!

THUD!

THUD!

"That was too easy. Send everyone here!" Reign declared, his voice echoing through the air. It was as if the sound of death itself had delivered his chilling command.

One of them shouted, "Don't let him get near us !!!"

The guards with rifles, began shooting.

RATATT-RATATT-RATTAT!

RATATT-RATATT-RATTAT!

RATATT-RATATT-RATTAT!

Their bullets missed as Reign causally dodged them. He moved quickly, weaving through the gunfire.

In no time, he reached the main entrance.

They tried to fight, but Reign was too fast. He took them down one after another, like swatting away a bunch of ants.

"Falcon Breathing Technique—" one of the more experienced hunters shouted as he rushed forward. He hoped he could at least slow down the intruder.

But the difference in power was like a candle against a storm. The hunter's efforts barely made a dent, and he got cut down without even contributing anything .

The other hunters rushed at Reign, their eyes filled with desperation as they understood they were up against someone powerful.

They coordinated their attacks, unleashing a barrage of elemental strikes.

However —

Reign barely seemed to notice them as he moved with blinding speed.

Each strike was deadly, leaving no room for survival.

They tried to block and counter, but it was like using a stick to stop a blade. Their weapons shattered, and their bodies were crushed along with them.

"Stop him! We can't let him get through! Call for more backup!" one of the hunters shouted, his voice filled of panicked.
