Chapter 48: Bane of All



However, he paused, realizing the noise it might create .

'Yeah, I'll just test it later,' Reign sighed inwardly, making his way towards the window.

With his mission completed at this location, it was time to move on to the next destination.

Bending his knee, he jumps out of the window.

SWOOOOSH!

SWOOOOSH!

SWOOOOSH!

Leaping from one roof to another, he quickly made his way to Anna and George in the abandoned house.

He had to admit that George's plan was really good, and the amount of information he got was very useful.

'Old man's sharper than I gave him credit for. More dangerous too,' Reign reflected silently.

Smart people tend to be more dangerous than those who rely on strength alone. During their first meeting, George acted weak and timid to make Reign lower his guard. This showed George's cunning personality and intelligence.

'I should keep an eye on him more,' Reign reminded himself not to underestimate George, despite him being just a regular human.

15 meters away.

'Is there something wrong?' he wondered to himself, noticing Anna's troubled expression from afar.

When he reached them, Reign noticed that the conversation between the two had stopped, raising his suspicions. He didn't appreciate these kinds of situations, given his trust issues.

"Let's move on to the next part," Reign hurriedly ordered with an annoyed tone.

George sensed Reign's unease but attributed it to a monster usual grumpiness and impulsive behavior.

"Alright," George nodded and jumped into the truck.

Their next destination would be the market area, as most store owners lived on the second floor of their establishments.

As Reign followed suit, preparing to join George, the tranquil night sky underwent a sudden and drastic transformation.

What had been a serene expanse overhead morphed into an ominous sky, painted with streaks of crimson that seemed to seep into the darkness like blood spilled across the night.

A shiver crept down Reign's spine as he gazed upward, his instincts prickling with unease.

Something was amiss, and the air hummed with tension, setting his nerves on edge.

With a furrowed brow, he exchanged a wary glance with Anna, silently questioning if she, too, felt the sinister shift in the atmosphere .

Reign noticed Anna's shocked expression and saw her take a step back. Despite her surprise, Anna quickly regained her composure, steeling her heart to conceal any signs of weakness.

"What the hell is that?" Reign exclaimed, his gaze fixated on humanoid figures hovering in mid-air.

To his astonishment, there wasn't just one, but three of them.

SWOOOOSH!

She immediately jump the roof of the truck.

"Reign, they're dangerous!" Her urgent warning was accompanied by a defensive stance, blood tendrils swirling around her in a protective barrier.

Seeing the seriousness etched on her face, Reign felt a knot tighten in his stomach. She was genuinely afraid.

The usually confident and powerful girl was now trembling, her expression replaced by visible fear.

"How powerful are those guys for her to be this afraid?" Reign muttered to himself, his mind racing with uncertainty.

He wasn't strong enough to gauge their strength, so he could only rely on his instinct, which screamed at him to run.

If his intuition could speak, it would likely say something along the lines of, "Run, Reign, Run!"

But regardless of the glaring gap in power, he knew that he couldn't afford to succumb to fear.

What he needed at that moment was to calm his mind and think things through. He reminded himself of the old adage, "Where there's a will, there's a way."

The three humanoid figures above began a slow descent from the sky, gradually revealing their features to Reign's eyes.

It was astonishing how effortlessly the three figures defied gravity, hovering in the air as if walking on invisible platforms.

There was one man and two women, all with unique white hair and piercing red eyes.

The man was clad in a black formal coat adorned with a red ribbon at the neck, and he held a black cane topped with a red ball.

The two girls, on the other hand, donned black gothic-themed dresses that enveloped their entire bodies. Even their necks were veiled by a thin layer of silk, punctuated with small holes to reveal hints of their skin.

Their flawless appearance was a huge contrast to their evil aura.

Only Anna could perhaps rival the two girls, though not by a big margin.

'Who are these people?' he wondered inwardly, his mind racing to decide what to do next. He couldn't imagine they came for a cozy chat and a cup of tea.

"Anna," the handsome guy with short, white brush-up hair said, his voice carrying a strange echo that made Reign wonder if he had a hidden sound amplifier tucked away somewhere.

'She knows him? Don't tell me that guy is a secret lover or something?' Reign thought, his mind immediately conjuring up dramatic scenarios straight out of a soap opera.

"Who are you?" Anna demanded, her voice laced with a hint of annoyance. It was evident she was trying to maintain her composure despite the pressure coming from the three.

Reign, on the other hand, remained silent, adopting the role of a mere bystander. He knew this wasn't a battle he could win, so he opted to stay quiet and bide his time for a chance to escape.

As for Anna and George? Well, he couldn't care less about their fate. It was true that they had helped him a lot, but he never asked for their assistance in the first place.

It was more like Anna forced herself into his life, so he didn't feel responsible for them.

Besides, acting like a hero now would be idiotic; for all he knew, that white-haired guy could flick his body into oblivion.

He wasn't delusional enough to believe that his hidden bloodline power, inherited from his powerful father, would suddenly awaken and allow him to jump levels. If that were the case, it would have manifested in his previous life already.

The white-haired, handsome man smiled before introducing himself. "My name is Alexander. I am your fiancee," he declared with an air of nobleness .

'Fiancee? If that's the case, then they're not here to kill us. Good, good,' Reign reassured himself, feeling a glimmer of hope.

'Just take her away and please leave me alone,' he added silently, hoping his wish would be granted.

"I don't care! I only love one person, and that is Reign!" Anna's voice echoed with conviction, her eyes blazing with determination as she stood her ground.

'What the fuck are you doing you stupid dimwit ?' Reign grumbled, unable to hold back his curses, as Anna pushed him towards certain death.

'I know it, women are the bane of all men!' he gritted his teeth in frustration, hoping that Alexander would take Anna's words as a joke after seeing how ugly and scary looking he was.

It was ironic that at this moment, he felt relief that he wasn't reincarnated as a super hot guy like those cliche novels
