Apocalypse Chaos - I am the villain



Hikaru's gaze really made Delmor feel fear.

Delmor swallowed, and felt a chill down his spine. He glanced at Alec, and saw that his leg was badly injured, and that he was unable to move normally.

Rina was so scared that she couldn't even stand up.

Akiko also couldn't help him.

On the other hand, Hikaru was still normal, his fighting strength was terrible. Next to him was Laylah, who possesses powers that allow her to shoot wind arrows.

At this point, Delmor felt extremely jealous.

'Damn it! When it's important, I'm surrounded by useless people.'

'Why are there always people around Hikaru who are many times better than those around him?'

'Could it be… Hikaru knew in advance who would be useful, so he took the opportunity first?'

'It's very likely that he even knows his secret power.'

Delmor panicked, he felt that Hikaru was now a hundred times more dangerous than he had previously thought.

A dangerous person like Hikaru who has  the ability to foresee the future would be even more dangerous.

He suddenly frowned and asked, "Did you know that I will be here today?"

Hikaru didn't answer, he just shrugged.

Delmor saw this and took a deep breath: 'Looks like… I guessed right. He seems to be able to predict a few things that will happen in the future.'

'So... no matter where I go, I can't escape his palm.'

Delmor sighed, he seemed to have decided on something as he said: "Good! I want to exchange."

"Heh!?" Akiko, who was startled, said, "Delmor, we..."

"Akiko, you don't understand what's going on. No matter where we go, he knows that we can't escape."

"If we can't run away, then there's no need to run. It's okay to trade with him."

Hikaru smiled upon hearing that, he knew that Delmor seemed to have noticed something odd.

[Master, it seems that Delmor already knows that you have the ability to predict the future.]

"It's okay..." Hikaru communicated with Rika's mind: "He's a main character anyway, he can't be that stupid."

"The fact that he guessed that I might know some information in the future was something I foresaw. Anyway, there are too many coincidences."

"If Delmor hadn't been a fool, he might have realized I had that power. However, I will neither admit nor confirm it, so he can only speculate."

"So… he will have an invisible pressure. Let him think I know the future, so he'll be afraid of me and just stay in a defensive position, not attack me."

[Ah! Master, you are so smart now.]

Hikaru: "..."

He felt that Rika was mocking him.

"So… you want energy crystals?" Delmor's voice rang out.

Hikaru nodded: "Yes, energy crystals and a one-time crafting item."

Delmor heard Hikaru and frowned: 'It seems… My guess is correct. Hikaru most likely has the ability to foresee the future or read my mind.'

'However… Perhaps his ability is limited, and he can't know too much. If not, I would have died a long time ago.'

'But that's just too scary. Tremendous strength, useful comrades, and he also possesses the ability to foresee the future…'

'Perhaps… in the apocalypse, he seems to have won.'

Delmor took a deep breath and said, "I only have 50 energy crystals. As for the crafting item you have to provide me with materials, I don't have the materials."

Hikaru smiled at that: "70."

"You… I don't have that many energy crystals." Delmor shouted angrily.

Hikaru didn't answer, his sharp gaze was fixed on Delmor.

Delmor felt a little scared, he could only sigh and nod: "Okay! 70 crystals and one craft item. I agree to this transaction."

Then, Delmor took out a small cloth bag from his backpack, counted 70 energy crystals in the bag, and then threw it at Hikaru.

In fact, the 70 energy crystals were almost all of the energy crystals he had.

If he gave them to Hikaru, he would only have 4 energy crystals left.

Although Delmor was currently unable to use energy crystals, Alec still needed energy crystals for food and healing.

If not…

But preserving his life and collecting supplies is a top priority. So he didn't have much time to consider what to do.

Hikaru grabbed the bag that Delmor threw, and immediately dropped it inside the Panara space, then smiled: "Hahaha… thanks. When I have enough ingredients, I'll come see you."

He turned to leave, ignoring Delmor.

Suddenly, Delmor spoke up: "Laylah, why are you helping Hikaru?"

Laylah heard that, her face was a little sad, and her eyes were desperate as she looked at Delmor: "I… have no other choice."

A gentle breeze blew, and a few strands of Laylah's brown hair fluttered, making the scene even more sad.

Hikaru: "..."

'Can you stop it? This is not a reality show, nor is it an acting class.'

At this point, Hikaru completely had no words to describe his fatigue and headache from seeing Laylah's expressions and actions.

"Laylah, you should remember that you are a policeman. A policeman's duty is to protect the weak, and punish the bad. I don't know why you are helping Hikaru, but if you want, I can help you." Delmor said, his voice filled with an aura of righteousness.

Laylah shook her head: "No, you don't understand what I'm going through."

Her voice filled with pain caused Delmor to give Hikaru an angry look.

Hikaru: "..."

'What the hell are you looking at me for? I am the victim! AAA!!'

Hikaru felt that Laylah was slandering him, however, he knew that even if he explained it, no one would want to believe him.

Of course, he didn't want to explain it either.

Delmor frowned and said, "Hikaru, I didn't think you're that kind of person. Holding on to someone else's weakness, and forcing that person to serve you, if you have any humanity left then set Laylah free."

Hikaru: "..."

He glanced at Laylah, and Laylah lowered her head, maybe she was trying not to laugh.

'You… good! You're bullying me, I also have a way of bullying you.'

Hikaru smiled scornfully, he approached Laylah, and held her small waist in his arms.

He even squeezed Laylah's waist lightly.

"Um… You…" Laylah was a bit startled when Hikaru dared to do that in front of everyone.

She raised her head, and seeing his dangerous smile, she felt a little… scared.

He pulled Laylah into his lap, and enjoyed a little of her softness and scent.

'Wait! If I remember correctly… she hasn't had a bath in 3 days, why is she still so fragrant?'

Suddenly, Hikaru's dangerous gaze turned into confusion.

"Heh?!" Laylah also felt weird, what's with that look?

Hikaru felt like he was like a pervert who liked to smell women's scents… but the woman hadn't showered in 3 days.

He shook his head, and tried to get the bizarre thought out of his head, then smiled at Delmor: "Delmor, she's mine now. You cannot take her from me. Don't think that Laylah will betray me for some of your bullshit."

"Yes, my Laylah…"

Laylah was shaking a little, her face was red.

Delmor, who was angry, gritted his teeth: "Good! Laylah, if you need help, come find me. I can certainly help you."

Akiko also spoke up: "Hikaru… why are you doing this?"

"Hm? What I do is my problem. What about it? You want to use the power of a policeman to arrest me again?"

Akiko was startled hearing Hikaru's words, she shook her head: "No, the world doesn't have any rules anymore. I can't arrest you either."

"I just wanted to tell you that Laylah didn't blame you at all. Everything is done by me, I…"

"Enough!" Hikaru interrupted Akiko's words, he used a very cold and scary voice to say: "I don't care about such things anymore. That's why, don't damage your ego, Akiko."

"I don't have time to recall the past or take revenge for the bullshit you've done."

"I am only living for the future."

Akiko only lightly gritted her teeth when she heard that and nodded. However, she still managed to look at Laylah and said, "Please…don't hurt her."

"Hahaha… that depends on her expression, right Laylah."

Hikaru brought his face so close to Laylah's that she could feel his warm breath against hers.

Laylah's face turned even redder, and her body trembled slightly. This was the first time that a man dared to hug her like this.

Moreover… he even squeezed her waist.

Delmor eyes nearly fell out. A beautiful girl, who possessed powerful superpowers still eventually fell into the hands of Hikaru.

What about Delmor?

Although he also has two beautiful girls by his side, Rina was always causing him trouble, and Akiko even helps him with many things but she does not possess any superpowers.

Delmor sighed and said, "So… can we get the supplies in that convenience store?"

Hikaru nodded: "Of course… bye bye!"

After that, Hikaru took Laylah and left. Anyway, he couldn't kill Delmor for the time being, on the contrary, Hikaru didn't want to kill Delmor either.

Hikaru wanted to make Delmor his resource collector.

He did not believe that Delmor could find enough supplies to take care of all the people he saved.

After seeing Hikaru disappear, Delmor breathed a sigh of relief.

He lowered his head, and looked at Rina who was sitting on the ground crying, Alec, even though his leg was badly injured, had to comfort her by licking her tears.

Akiko was sad, her eyes looked into the distance as if she was thinking about something.

Delmor sighed once more. He now realized a saying that he had heard a long time ago, but it was very true in this case.

"I am not afraid of strong enemies, I'm only afraid of teammates that are as stupid as pigs."
