Villain: Ultimate Mutation System in the Alternate World

He knew he could fly even faster by using his other abilities to supplement his speed, much like he did when running.

And unlike on the ground, in the air, the only obstacle he had to worry about was air friction.

But even that wasn\'t a real concern because his body was even harder than steel .

If the strongest fictional hero in his old world was called the Man of Steel, then he\'d probably be the Bone of Steel, ready to save the day with a calcium-rich punch.

\'How fast can I really go ? \' Curiosity got the better of him as he wondered the possibilities.

But before testing and satisfying his curiosity , he decided to turn towards the opposite direction, instead of directly going to the city.

He needed to avoid Angela sensing his presence. It wasn\'t that he was afraid of her; he just wanted to improve his chances of winning with a surprise attack.

After making sure that everything was okay, he started flapping his wings again to gain more altitude .

This time, he flew much higher, nearly reaching the end of the barrier that hovered above the clouds.

\'I need to control my energy first,\' Focusing on his core that contained lightning element, he felt it begin to power the smaller core in the center.

Next, he infused it with negative energy, creating his iconic dark red sparks.

As the lightning began to flow around his body, he concentrated it in his wings.

The energy moved erratically inside, causing the black, jelly-like wings to glow red.

The color intensified, turning from a faint hue to a vivid, molten lava-like glow, though slightly darker.

With a deep paused to steady the raging power, he unleashed the full force of his wings.

BOOOOOOM!

With a thunderous flap of his wings, he shot forward like high powered bullet, his form streaking through the sky with breathtaking speed, leaving behind a trail of dark red sparks that illuminated the night with brilliance.

The acceleration was so mind-blowing, the wind whipping past him with a thunderous roar, and the ground below transformed into a blurred .

From the ground, he looked like a bolt of lightning streaking through the dark sky in a straight line.

His speed was so fast that the thunder echoed long after he had passed overhead.

The people below could only watch in awe and fear, witnessing a force of nature that defied explanation.

\'Nothing can stop me now,\' he thought, his confidence soaring as high as he was. The power coursing through him was intoxicating, making him feel invincible.

Air friction chip away his body, tearing at his bones and mussing his hair, but he barely registered it.

He was too focused on the thrill of speed, of flight, of mastering the very essence of moving like lightning itself.

In just a dozen minutes or more, he was already close to the the end of the barrier.

He tried to stop by flapping his wings in the opposite direction, but the sudden stop caused a massive burst of energy.

BOOOOOOM!

"FUCK !" he shouted in frustration as the force of the aerial maneuver tore through his wings, leaving them broken and useless.

He plummeted from the sky, the ground rushing up to meet him.

The wind roared in his ears, and the world spun around him as he fell like a rag-doll .

Reign braced himself, knowing the impact would be quite loud from this height, especially considering how heavy his body was. It was like dropping a lead from the air.

But despite the imminent danger, a wry smile tugged at the corners of his lips.

"I wonder if my body will be unscathed," he mused aloud, his voice lost in the rushing wind.

His fingers absentmindedly traced the line of his jaw as he contemplated the potential outcome of his fall.

The thought of dying from something as mundane as fall damage amused him.

After all he had been through, it would be a bitterly ironic end for a demon lord to die from a fall.

BOOOOOM!

With a deafening explosion , he collided with the hard ground.

Dirt and debris were thrown into the air as his body crashed into the ground with bone-breaking force.

CRACK!

He climbed out of the crater. Each step made the ground shake, sending pebbles rolling down.

Reign\'s body, as expected, showed no signs of any damage despite the violent impact that was enough to turn a human into meat paste.

As he stood in the middle the debris, he ran a quick self-assessment, flexing his bones and testing his limbs for any fracture.

\'Nice,\' he chuckled to himself. \'I\'m pretty much invincible ,\'

Suddenly, a voice from the distance broke his line of thoughts.

"Hey, look, a spaceship just fell down!"

"Are you filming this?"

"I knew it, UFOs exist!"

A group of people came running towards the site of the explosion.

This group hadn\'t been infected by the virus because they had been on an expedition for weeks, cruising along in their trucks to spot some UFOs.

Reign watched as the headlights of their trucks approached him, casting a glow in the dimly lit surroundings.

With a rumble, the vehicles came to a stop just a few meters away from him.

"Wow, an actual alien! Are you seeing this guys?" One enthusiast immediately ran towards Reign and started taking pictures.

\'Shit, they\'re treating me like a circus show,\' Reign muttered, struggling to control his annoyance .

These people were so ignorant that he couldn\'t help but pity them.

They were on the same level as those who believed the world was flat, despite all the scientific evidence saying otherwise.

After all, who needs actual logical reasoning when you\'re a complete idiot?

"Hello, can you unders—?" one of them tried to communicate, but before he could finish, Reign grabbed his head and ripped it off.

The others watched in horror as they saw their friend\'s neck burst open like a chocolate fountain, spewing crimson-red liquid .

But before they could even react and mourn, Reign used the severed head as a projectile, hurling it at one of them with such force that it sounded like a cannon blast, even breaking the truck behind the poor guy.

Without waiting for them to register what had happened, he brutally dismembered the headless corpse, tearing off an arm with a sickening crunch, and using it like throwable spear.

SWOOOSH!

The arm sliced through the air like a razor, piercing two people at once, leaving them pinned on one of the vehicle panels.

He didn\'t stop there.

With a sadistic smile, he continued tearing off limbs and using them as weapons to hunt down the people running away in panic.

Each throw of his improvised weapons sent the poor victims crashing to the ground, dead.

\'An alien? Well, they weren\'t wrong in that department,\' Reign chuckled .

However, unlike their expectations, he had no intention of communicating with his food.
