The Regressor Is The Villain

Chapter 18: Despair (1)



Dark Wolf, a B- ranked monster in the form of a large black wolf. From the specifications alone, Dark Wolf is a monster that is impossible for me to fight against at the moment. Plus Dark Wolf this time was an Alpha Monster which meant Dark Wolf's rank increased between B or B+.

Luckily, Dark Wolf was dead and what was unlucky was that Dark Wolf's corpse didn't seem to be taken by father. And currently ended up in eating irregular slimes.

(Why don't I remember important details like this? There's no way I didn't read the report on Dark Wolf's corpse, but it's strange that I can't remember the report on Dark Wolf's corpse.)

While puzzled by my own memories, I looked at Signe and gave instructions.

"...Signe, you know what you have to do right?"

"Yes!"

Signe moved at a very fast speed towards the slime but suddenly dozens of tentacles appeared attacking Signe, even so Signe was able to avoid all the tentacle attacks towards the slime.

But as I thought, it wasn't that easy to attack the slime this time.

The slime's entire body was suddenly enveloped in tentacles that began to harden themselves to become as strong as crystal.

"Hyah!!!"

Even with Signe's sword strike, the slime's body was not destroyed. Signe's full attack had at least Strength B- equivalent destructive power.

"This is so dangerous, I've run out of poison..."

Looking at the slime that had almost completely consumed Dark Tiger, I began to panic.

(The most appropriate choice at the moment....run!)

"Signe! We have to leave that thing behind, right now we'd better go back to the village and report to father!"

"But young master... no, you're right!"

Signe was a little hesitant about my decision to leave the slime, it was natural because we didn't know what would happen when the slime managed to fully consume the Alpha Dark Wolf monster but we couldn't do anything at the moment.

"Watch out!"

"Eh?"

As Signe stopped her attack, a sudden attack came crashing down on Signe.

Signe managed to block it with her sword, even so Signe was knocked away.

I ran over to Signe who was lying down with a pretty bad wound.

"Are you all right, no, good job withstanding that impromptu attack."

"Ahaha, young master can't honestly just worry about me?"

"Shut up."

Signe and I looked at the thing that attacked Signe until it was thrown very far away.

"What...is that?"

Signe muttered in disbelief at what she saw.

(...damn...this is so bad...)

There was a creature on top of the slime that hardened like crystal. A 4-legged slimy creature in black with a height of 3 meters and 2 tails.

"Dark Wolf?"

Yes, a Dark Wolf with a slimy body, no, not slimy but it was a Dark Wolf Slime.

"The slime mimics the Dark Wolf's form?"

"Yes, and it seems that it not only imitated but also gained the same power."

Judging from the injuries Signe received, there was no doubt that the slime not only imitated the form but the power of the Alpha Dark Wolf monster.

"Woo!!!"

The Dark Wolf slime howled so loudly that its voice could be heard throughout the forest.

Signe and I stared at each other, that roar had an effect that I knew all too well. The roar of an Alpha monster, the roar of a leader.

"The slime is summoning the monsters around us?"

"It looks like the slime really did become the new Alpha monster."

"Seriously..."

"We have to run, young master!"

"Yes!"

I used [Wall Ice] to block Slime Dark Wolf's view and then used Ignite to burn [Wall Ice] to create smoke that would obscure Slime Dark Wolf's view.

Even so, the Slime Dark Wolf instantly recognized our position and attacked us. Signe moved to protect me from the attack, this time Signe managed to completely block the attack.

Slime Dark Wolf retreated out of the smoke, after a few seconds the smoke began to fade slightly and revealed Slime Dark Wolf in front of us with dozens of goblins, kobolds and several rank E monsters surrounding us.

"Aha..ha..ha...this is really serious, young master."

"..."

(Damn it, how do we get out of this current situation...Ah!)

I then remembered something, I opened the shop system.

[Shop:

5. Elexir Skill: 900.000

...

99.Cognitive Mask: 1.000

100. ???: ???]

(Damn, there are no useful items for me to buy with points right now!)

I saw a plus sign in the bottom left corner of the shop, I tried to press the button.

[Do You Want to Upgrade Shop Options?]

[2500 Villain Points Required]

(What? Almost used up all my points, what's the point of upgrading options if you can't buy anything in the end.)

Before the smoke cleared completely, I started talking.

"I have a plan."

"Hehe, as expected of the young master. Even in a situation like this, young master still has a plan."

"But this plan cannot fail. I'm betting all my remaining Ether on this plan."

I began to explain my plan in a quick outline.

"It's risky but worth the risk."

"Then, let's get started."

As the smoke completely cleared, I immediately moved forward towards Slime Dark Wolf.

The Slime Dark Wolf began to alert and prepare to attack, then I began casting ice elemental magic, body ice. A magic that was enough to drain all my Ether.

Slime Dark Wolf tried to wait for Signe but because Signe hadn't moved, Slime Dark Wolf decided to attack me first.

When Slime Dark Wolf's attack was about to hit my head, I used my hand to parry.

"Ugh!!!"

I was thrown towards the crowd of goblins due to the impact of Slime Dark Wolf's attack.

Although it was painful and my ice body broke instantly but I managed to withstand the monster's attack.

It was then that Signe used the opportunity when I was thrown to move as calmly and quickly as possible with wind elemental magic to the Slime Dark Wolf's blind spot, which was the creature's snout.

When the Slime Dark Wolf realized Signe was too late, Signe attacked the Slime Dark Wolf's eyes with a sword that was burned by my Ignite fire that was blazing enormously thanks to the addition of Signe's wind elemental magic.

"Wauurgghh!!!"

The Slime Dark Wolf groaned in pain and began to rampage and destroy the surrounding monster army. Signe held on to the monster's head and jumped towards me.

"Our plan worked young master!"

"I knew even without you telling me, quickly help me up."

"Yes, it's time to run!"

"Yes."

Signe helped me up, me and Signe then looked around. The other monsters didn't realize our existence and focused on running scared by Slime Dark Wolf's rampage.

Signe and I started to walk away from this commotion, but suddenly my instinct told me to avoid.

I looked back, a sharp tail of the Slime Dark Wolf was currently heading towards me.

At this speed there's no mistaking that I'm going to die, there's no way I can dodge such a fast attack with this exhausted body.

Just as I was thinking that, a shadow appeared in front of me.

*Jleb*

"...What are you doing...Signe?"
