Life Of A Nobody - as a Villain

Chapter 300 Leon's stage

Leon entered the stage of battle with great fanfare as he directly sneaked up on Ronnie and blasted him with a cannon of flame hitting his body.

When Ronnie sensed the threat, he raised his arms to block Leon's attack, but the flames were already up close, burning the hooded cloak from his hands and chest area.

Leon looked at a mark of two circles formed on his wrists. The smaller circle at the inside was white in color while the outer circle was made in red color.ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ novelenglish.net . ꜰirᴇ.nᴇt

"Fallen from the fairy group." Rebecca muttered seeing the symbol on Ronnie's hands.

Hearing her words Vanessa's expression too turned a little more serious, as she recognized the seal too.

"What?" Leon asked, confused about their reactions, as he stood between both of them.

"That's the mark of banishment given in the fairy race to anyone who fell prey to the dark path and lost their connection with the fairy ancestral magic.

Or someone who's despised and abandoned by the gods of the fairy race's legends." Vanessa explained what she knew about the fallen fairies.

"Fairies are extremely proud of their purity and light magic, so anyone who fell from their grace, is either killed on sight or trapped in the towers of hell." Rebecca further added her insight.

"Since he's still alive, you're telling me he escaped from the towers of hell?" Leon asked, finally showing the same expressions of surprise both girls had at the beginning.

There are many Hell Towers on Arcadia, each belonging to some kind of myth, religion or world legends - but one thing they all have in common is their difficulty level.

Compared to any of the other towers, Hell towers have an average of 70% more mortality rates for awakeners. That alone shows how dangerous they can be.

There are even many limitations placed by the world association and other organizations to make sure no one below limit rank can even enter those towers. And people beneath B rank aren't even allowed to roam around those towers for miles. Since the hell towers are most famous for their unpredictability and tricks and corrosion.

And the guy in front of them came from surviving those towers, of course it made them take this opponent even more seriously.

Becca even wondered for a second, if she should just take this chance and get out of here.

But then she looked at all the deaths happening all around her and shook her head. She's a princess, and some of these people fighting even now are her subjects. She can't just leave them and run away.

[Kill him and you can get one of the skills of fairy law.]

All three of them received a quest from some unknown God and looked at each other in surprise.

Not just three of them but anyone who was still alive on that floor received the similar messages.

It was clear that the gods of fairylands didn't take lightly to this black sheep ruining their race's reputation.

[Fairy magic can heal your injuries fast and improve your understanding of holy magic.] Apollo sent a message and hearing it Leon's eyes changed from wariness to determination and then to hope, as he looked at Ronnie.

He just woke up some time ago after stabilizing his now demoted rank and injuries, and immediately had to fight for his life as that idiot guy from Nishkal family tried to kill him in his sleep.

Of course Leon defeated Aldrich and managed to beat him despite being weakened by three minor ranks.

As for his punishment, Aldrich would have to spend many months in a wheelchair as Leon burned his spine and mana veins. He was about to permanently cripple Aldrich and ruin his mana core/dantian but some guards came and interfered in their fight. So Leon had to flee from the scene.

Leon looked at Ronnie who stood up from the ground and coughed blood.

Waving his hand he chugged down a healing potion and started running towards Leon.

"You will die by my hands, bastard." Ronnie said, as one after another black balls of miasma formed behind him and flew towards Leon. Who in turn used a similar skill but with the element of fire.

The collision of fire and darkness was awe inspiring as light and destruction clashed with each other.

Though Leon's spells looked majestic, they were no match for Ronnie's chaos. And soon enough Leon was hit by one of the floating balls of destruction which directly ended up hitting him on the head.

But just when his head was about to burst open like a balloon, some kind of protection treasure got activated and took the damage from him.

Leon looked at the pearl necklace around his neck and saw four of the small pearl beads broke and fell down.

This artifact was a defensive treasure he found in a dungeon secret chamber, called 'Lifelink Loom'

An artifact which can protect his life as long as there are any beads left on the necklace. And the beads would break depending on the damage he would've suffered.

The necklace originally had 100 beads in the beginning, but now only 27 beads were left. Just showing how many times he came close to death but survived by luck.

And four of them were broken down by Ronnie's spell.

Leon breathed a sigh of relief as he felt the threat of life disappear. But with this confrontation he also realized the vast difference he had with this guy Ronnie. If he was still on his previous rank, may be he would have defeated him easily, but now there was no chance.

Looking around he noticed Saisha who was holding back the second hooded man by herself. She was bringing out one magical artifact after another. Attack, defense, evasion everything was done by just her alone.

She didn't use any skills as the second hooded man could seal them and use them back to attack her. So she mainly relied on using artifacts and their bound effects instead. Which made it harder for him to seal them.

"Are you okay?" Vanessa asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine." Leon said and looked back at Ronnie who was held back by Rebecca. "Can you cover me for 30 seconds. I know a spell which can help us defeat both of them."

Leon said and Vanessa thought for some time and agreed to it.

She knew some skills too which could boost her strength and help her win, but they were all coming with some kind of backlash so she didn't want to use them unless absolutely necessary.

Since Leon himself wanted to be the bait, and she didn't have to risk it herself. So she agreed and charged towards Rebecca who was getting pushed back facing the destruction mage.
