The Path of Revenge: A Reborn Anti-Hero

Born into a noble family and endowed with tremendous power, exceptional talent, and unparalleled physical attractiveness, one might assume these qualities to be blessings. However, are they truly advantageous or rather a curse? Allen Frey, a young man destined to inherit the illustrious lineage of Duke Frey in the Kingdom of Eldoria, finds himself entangled in this very predicament. Given his extraordinary social standing and the multitude of advantages at his disposal, it seems inevitable that Allen will lead a prosperous life and ascend to greatness in due course. What if this perceived fortune is merely an intricate facade, perpetually deceiving him at every twist and turn? What if it's all an elaborate lie? A hero summoned from another world with the mission to vanquish the Demon Emperor ultimately becomes the perpetrator, stripping Allen of everything he holds dear—his fiancée, sister, power, strength, and all that he possessed. Does this constitute fate? Even the figure known as the "Hero" ultimately eradicated his very existence. Can this be considered justice? In the final moments of his life, he gazed upward at the serene sky, mustering every ounce of strength to reach out his trembling hand. "Oh, God! Are you truly so merciless as to shatter my life?" "Can... Can you grant me an opportunity to alter this cruel destiny?!" He cried out, his voice strained, tears streaming down his face, and gradually he closed his weary eyes. [Ding!

The Devastating Battle - Part 2

"A high-level monster, Water Dragon!" he exclaimed in disbelief.

As the name suggests, water dragons are high-level monsters that typically inhabit the deep ocean, and Allen never anticipated encountering one in a mere lake.

"How could a water dragon be in a lake?" He pondered, his brow furrowing in confusion.

Soon, a realization struck him, and he gasped in shock as a guess formed in his mind.

"Could it be that there's something inside this lake responsible for this?" Allen speculated confidently, finding no other plausible explanation.

Furthermore, the lake water itself had properties akin to a highly suspicious low-level potion.

Otherwise, how could a lake give birth to a water dragon?

As Allen contemplated, the water dragon fixed its gaze on him and unleashed a mighty roar.

"Roaaarr!" The resounding roar was followed by a sudden uprising of water from the lake, which launched an attack towards him.

"Water magic?" Allen gasped in shock and swiftly invoked a dodge spell.

"Wind magic: Acceleration!" Instantly, his body vanished, reappearing thirty meters away.

"Boom!" The water, controlled by the dragon, missed its target and crashed into the empty ground with a loud splash.

While Allen managed to evade the attack, he was left horrified, keeping a wary eye on the water dragon at the center of the lake.

His knowledge of water dragons had led him to this tense situation.

That said, water dragon monsters are divided into two types: one type can use magic, and the other cannot use water magic at all.

If likened to human social status, it is akin to the existence of nobles and commoners, where water dragons capable of using water magic are considered nobles, while those without magical abilities are commoners.

"I didn't expect this water dragon to be a water magic-using type of dragon!" he exclaimed in surprise and awe.

However, instead of feeling frightened, he grew more excited!

Without hesitation, he assumed a fighting stance, his concentration focused as he began chanting a wind magic spell.

"Wind Magic: Float!" His body subtly lifted off from the ground, and he ascended slowly into the sky, aligning himself with the water dragon.

Meanwhile, the water dragon, after its attack missed, grew more aggressive.

With a deafening roar, the water around the dragon surged into the sky, taking on a tentacle-like form and hurtling towards Allen, who was now floating above the ground.

Yet, despite the formidable attack, Allen remained composed and determined not to yield.

He waved his hand gracefully while chanting the same elemental spell.

"Water Magic: Water Wall!"

In an instant, the water from the lake soared into the sky, forming a protective wall around Allen.

"Boom!"

The two attacks collided with tremendous force, with the water dragon on the offensive and Allen expertly defending.

As he engaged with the water dragon, Allen noticed that the creature seemed unable to fully control its magic power, which presented an advantage for him.

Clenching his palm, he shattered the tentacles formed by the water.

"It seems you have a long way to go before matching my magical prowess," he taunted the water dragon with a mocking smile.

Feeling confident in his assessment of the water dragon's weak magical control, Allen subtly lowered his guard.

He believed the creature's lack of strong control made it susceptible to a technique known in the world of magic as "Forced Transfer."

In this process, one's mana flow and control are manipulated by another person, easily controlling the magic released by the affected individual.

This can happen due to a lack of training and understanding of magic itself.

Fortunately for Allen, he has mastered and perfected his magic control to such a degree that others at the same level or perhaps even stronger cannot possibly manipulate the magic he releases.

As the water dragon returned to face the stranger, who effortlessly thwarted its water magic, a sense of vulnerability surged within the proud creature.

Despite its fear of humans, the water dragon couldn't flee from the situation.

"Roaaarr!" The water dragon roared loudly, and a giant-sized water ball slowly formed around it.

The water ball spun around, ready to be launched at Allen.

However, Allen's expression remained as calm as ever, showing no concern when confronted with the enormous water ball.

Casually, he raised his hands forward and began chanting an incantation.

"Wind Magic: Wind Blade!" Subtly, a gentle breeze blew by his side, forming twenty medium-sized wind blades.

Both opponents assumed their stances and prepared to attack until the water dragon, with a thunderous roar, hurled the huge water ball towards Allen with terrifying speed.

"Go away," Allen said casually, and the twenty blades of wind rushed violently towards the water dragon.

"Boom!"

The two attacks clashed once again, but this time Allen's wind blades gained the upper hand, piercing through and shattering the giant water ball with ease.

"Boom!"

The shattered water ball splashed everywhere, crushing every tree around it and uprooting them.

"Whooosh!" The wind blades swiftly soared towards the water dragon after effortlessly crushing its attack.

Seeing its own attack fail, the water dragon felt an unusually strong threat from the wind blades.

"Roaaar!" The dragon roared loudly, attempting to evade by diving into the lake.

However, Allen wouldn't allow it.

In response, he cast water magic once again.

"Water magic: Water Chain!"

The water in the lake surged, forming a chain that bound the water dragon, preventing its escape.

"Roaaarr!" The dragon roared fiercely, but unfortunately, the wind blades swiftly sliced through its abdomen, chest, head, and neck, dismembering its body.

"Woooshh!" Thick, red-colored blood gushed out like a fountain from the water dragon's severed parts.

After a few minutes, the blood stopped flowing, and the dragon's dismembered body floated on the surface of the lake.

The thick, red blood spread into the lake water, tainting it red.

Despite his victory, Allen couldn't help feeling a twinge of remorse for the water dragon.

One could argue that its defeat was primarily due to its weakness in magic control, making it an easier target to kill.

Otherwise, Allen might have been engaged in a life-and-death struggle with the water dragon.

"What a pity," he sighed, observing the water dragon's body parts floating in the water and the blood polluting the lake.

However, a sudden idea occurred to him.

He floated just above the lake's surface, eyeing the water dragon's severed body.

"Water dragon meat is extremely valuable and sought-after for the creation of high-level potions. If I sell it, the price will definitely be very high," he thought with a nod.

After all, he was the victorious one, and claiming any spoils was rightfully his.

Without hesitation, he whispered softly, "Activate the system bag!"

Suddenly, a small panel appeared in his view.

---------------------

[Save everything to the system bag?]

[Yes/No]

-----------------------

Just as he was about to press the [Yes] button, the surrounding lake water suddenly trembled, causing Allen to widen his eyes.

Immediately, he flew higher above the lake's surface, staring at the water with a frown.

"What's happening?" he asked with vigilance, his gaze fixed on the water dragon meat and blood slowly being engulfed by the lake's depths, seemingly absorbed by something mysterious.

The once blood-red lake water gradually returned to its previous state, leaving Allen utterly surprised.

Until finally, the flesh and blood of the water dragon slowly disappeared at a visible speed.

"This..." Allen was at a loss for words, frozen in astonishment.
