It’s getting harder and harder to be a villain these days

Weekley walked forward slowly and looked at Ferguson indifferently. Under the influence of the demon hunter blood, he instinctively felt disgusted.

"Have you fallen into a devil?"

Upon hearing these words, Ferguson's eyes suddenly glowed red, and he smiled cruelly with a ferocious face.

The devil that Weekley spoke of irritated his nerves.

"...Yes, I am the devil."

Without any chanting, blazing flames spurted out from his body.

But the target was not Vickrey, but the people who fled.

His main mission given to him by the Order was to cause as many casualties as possible.

Fire swept across the sky.

Facing the unavoidable people, Weekly once again built a magical barrier...

But this time, there were several cracks in the barrier that lacked magic power.

"..."

The buildings in the street were shattered by the impact of the explosion, and blood fell to the ground from the corner of Vickrey's mouth.

The huge magic output puts a strain on the body.

Because of the clone, Vickrey's magic power and physical strength were reduced by half while he was still in a weak stage.

If it happens a few more times, even he won't be able to hold on, and he must make a quick decision...

Ferguson, who was a little angry when Weekley repeatedly hindered his mission, rushed over.

"...go to hell!"

Ferguson, who was holding a dagger, was swallowed by the shadow and turned into a long black blade and slashed at him, but Vickery had no intention of blocking the attack.

The next second, the exploded rubble rose into the sky, and Ferguson was hit by a cold sword energy.

After a brief exchange of swords, several wounds were left on his body.

Frozen to the ground, Ferguson glared at the female knight who suddenly came out.

Yula stood beside Vickrey with a sword in hand.

As a personal guard, she always stayed not far away.

"It's alright."

"Cough, it's okay."

“The current situation is not optimistic, no

But here, explosions also occurred in other areas. This was a premeditated attack. "

Yura said seriously.

"...I see."

Vickery frowned, then nodded.

Apparently, the two reached a consensus on trying to save the people.

"Professor! Me, I'm here to help too!"

Sophie, who had been watching from the sidelines, raised her hands and shouted loudly.

She looked at the blood at the corner of Vickrey's mouth and bravely took a step forward, not knowing what she was thinking in her eyes.

Youla looked at this courageous girl with amusement.

"Is this your student?"

"Take her down. This is no place for her to interfere. I'll handle it."

"But..."

Although Eura stopped Sophie, she was still worried.

Vickery glanced at them both.

"No buts."

Then, he stretched out his hand towards Ferguson, and under the control of the mage's hand, chains made of Oliha steel flew out of the cuffs.

Ferguson was tightly bound in place, unable to move.

Accompanied by the creaking sound of the chains, the huge force almost broke Ferguson's bones.

"That's it."

"..."

The power of extreme ice contained in Oliha's steel dimmed the flames on Ferguson's body.

Even the magic power in his body was draining away rapidly, and he had no hope of winning.

Vickery walked closer and looked into his cloudy eyes, only to find that there was no trace of fear in them.

On the contrary, there is an unconcealable joy.

"Praise the Ashes!"

As death approached, Ferguson was still chanting prayers.

"It's disgusting."

A sharp mithril dagger pierced his head.

"hey-hey..."

But at the moment of death, Ferguson smiled, and a thick black mist overflowed from the Death Curse dagger in his hand.

At the cost of his own soul, he launched a final attack.

A strange barrier quickly enveloped the surroundings.

For Ferguson, death was just the beginning.

...

The moment the black mist hit, Vickrey only had time to throw Yula and the two out as much as possible with the mage's hands, and then his eyesight went completely white.

"..."

When he came to his senses, he found that he was in a strange place.

Surrounded by wooden houses, crops in the farmland, and racks for drying the sun.

It seems like a village.

The sudden change of scene in front of him made Vickery feel a little confused.

Is this an illusion?Or is it a real place?

Looking carefully, Vickery noticed a sign next to him.

The handwriting was covered by large dark brown spots, making it difficult to read. I could only barely make out the words "xx Village".

It's just that there is no one in this village, no living creatures, nothing, and an invisible sense of oppression hangs over the place.

Dried dark red liquid was everywhere, and white unknown bone fragments looked like human teeth.

Then Weekly spots a figure that shouldn't be there.

Ferguson, who was supposed to be killed by himself, was standing not far away with a death curse dagger in his hand, looking at him.

"Where is this place?"

Ferguson's unfocused gaze was extremely uncomfortable.

"This is the alien space inside the Death Curse Dagger. The Death Curse Barrier can't be stopped as long as it is activated."

Ferguson said to himself.

As a cursed weapon, the Death Curse Dagger can trap the user and the soul of the designated target inside for a duel.

It is the kind of magic item that is forced to activate. The flow of time inside it is stationary, and the trapped person will only end if one of the trapped people dies.

This may not be of any benefit to users, but...

"Then, come on!"

Ferguson swung the dagger sharply down in Weekley's direction.

The earth cracks!

The ground shattered, and just one blow of the dagger split the gravel.

This is the characteristic of this prop. The power of the prop holder can be infinitely amplified. This is not a duel, but a killing.

This is also the origin of the title of the Death Curse Dagger. Anyone who is struck by it will surely die.

Vickrey's eyes showed surprise as he dodged this majestic sword.

In the game, as long as you are stabbed, you will be forced to trigger an instant death judgment.

He originally thought it would be fine as long as he didn't get hurt, but he didn't expect there was such a forced activation method.

"What? Don't you dare to fight back now?"

Ferguson roared crazily, and the sword energy that cut off everything swept through the entire space.

He was born in a village in the Fahos Empire as a hybrid of red blood and humans.

Because he has the blood of the Red Blood Clan, everyone in the village hates him.

Growing up, Ferguson was bullied.

The family was poor and overworked. His mother passed away very early, but his long-awaited Crimson Blood father never showed up.

In order to survive, he can only grovel and let others trample on his dignity...

Until by chance, he got the inheritance of a necromancer and the cursed prop Death Curse Dagger.

As a Crimson Blood Clan, he has extremely high talent for it.

Since then, Ferguson has been immersed in the almighty necromancy. Driven by hatred, he killed everyone in the village and hunted naked people everywhere.

Bloodlines....

He hates humans, but he also hates the Redbloods.

In the end, the Ashes Order took a fancy to his abilities and successfully absorbed him.

"..."

Facing the hugely destructive attack, Weekly could only dodge here and there.

Suddenly, the attack stopped temporarily.

"As a demon hunter, can you only hide? It's useless."

"....You want to say this is all?"

Vickery looked at him indifferently.

That look of contempt made Ferguson raise the dagger again.

But before he decided to attack, he discovered that a door actually appeared in front of Vickrey.

"You said that once this barrier is activated, it cannot be stopped, right?"

From the beginning, Weekly activated his master's heart and analyzed this barrier.

Although it is basically impossible to learn this instant death magic with limited magic power, it is not difficult for him to crack an exit with his absolute computing power...

"Then, just stay here by yourself."

After finishing speaking, Vickery walked into the door and closed the barrier thoughtfully.

"what?"

Then, only Ferguson was left in the dead village.

A man who, unless he commits suicide, will be trapped in the Death Curse Dagger forever.
