Chapter 3:

“Assassin VS. Shadow” (Part 1)

Villain To Villain: I Was Sent To Kill Heroes, But You're Next.


(With Adiri then giving the signal for combat, Kamino and Mita would both then begin combat with one another, exchanging clashes of their weapons as Kamino seems to have the advantage in speed, Mita is swinging the massive greatsword as if it was as light as a thin stick to counter any incoming slashes. With Kamino sliding past Mita and failing to land a cut, he’d cancel his plan for a frontal assault and instead examine the strength and durability of Mita’s weapon along with her speed in attacking and reaction time.)

Kamino (Thinking): “She’s swinging that damn sword like it’s a stick, so attacking her up close won’t work for she’ll be completely defended. Each attack has a weakness, it’ll take a while for it to expose itself.”

(Kamino would then draw his magical handgun, ready to examine Mita further as magic ammunition within the magazine would generate and for every time Kamino would pull the trigger, the magic bullets would have a small chance of a metal piercing blow. With a storm of raining bullets firing onto Mita, she’d swing her longsword to counter the actual magical bullets while ignoring illusions, surprising Kamino once again knowing she’s more keen eyed than she appeared to be.)

Mita: “Illusion tricks? To think you’d stoop so low.”

(Mita would then implant her sword into the ground then tie her hair into a tail before suddenly getting grazed by a magical bullet after mistakenly leaving her eyes closed as she lost her balance. With Kamino purposely unleashing another storm of magical bullets toward Mita, she’d lose her footing as Kamino rushed in to connect with an elbow to the stomach, many considering it a low blow as Adiri was surprised at Kamino’s choice of action. With Mita stunned and knocked down after a blow with the butt of the gun to the side of the head, Kamino then aims the very gun at Mita’s head as her eyes stared into the bottom of the barrel until the match was then suddenly decided.)

Adiri: “Kamino wins.”

Kamino: “For a hybrid, you’re pretty quick. But the difference between you and me is this. Villains like you take all the time in the world full of confidence and wonder why Heroes defeat you. Me? I’m a Serial Killer. An assassin. A mercenary. I’ll never let a single opponent catch a single second to breathe. The smallest separation between a power-cocky Villain and a confident Hero is a death sentence to the Villain.”

(Kamino would store his handgun before confidently turning his back away to face Adiri while Mita’s friends would assist her with the bleeding gush on her cheek.)

Kamino: “Well, if there’s nothing else Empress, I will be taking my leave.”
Adiri: “Uh.. Y-Yeah. Welcome to the Villains…”

(With Kamino walking back to his room, Villains would step out of Kamino’s path as he actually was fanboying in his head like crazy knowing his heart was actually pounding. Moments later, Mita was being treated to by the Villain doctors as she then stares at herself in the mirror, touching her graze scar by the magical bullet and her hair which she’s spent hours was shed off of her scalp by the barrage of bullets which was then her breaking point, leading her to release a blood rising scream in anger, eventually destroying the Villain’s infirmary room leading to Mita being held back by her friends in order to calm down.)

Mita: “KAMINOO!! I’LL KILL YOU, I’LL KILL YOU, I’LL KILL YOU, I’LL KILL YOU, YOU BASTARD!! YOU NONCHANTER!!!”

(With the hatred for Kamino echoing throughout the halls of the Villain Palace, Kamino was then resting peacefully in his room after the fight, keen on taking a nap but was actually curious about venturing to the outside of the palace and checking out Villain City.)

Kamino: “...I wonder what the city’s like. Villain City, huh?”

(Kamino would then throw on his trench coat and hides his weapons within his very pockets as he then takes himself outside the doors of Adiri’s palace, surprised at the view of Villain City from where he stands, noticing a popular flock of crows and ravens flying in the skies as Kamino was in awe. After some time enjoying the view of Villain City from a height, he’d venture down into the city, noticing different kinds of mythical creatures and hybrids from Dragons to Elves, Wolves to Foxes and many more creatures as far as the eye can see. Throughout the streets, Kamino was aware of himself being talked about among the commonfolk.)

Bystander #1: “Do you think that’s him, the one Empress Adiri has summoned?”
Bystander #2: “He seems pretty intimidating…”

Bystander #1: “Wanna go talk to him then?”
Bystander:#2: “NO WAY! HE’S SCARY!”

(With more Bystanders eventually speaking on Kamino, he’d unexpectedly run into another maid from Adiri’s palace who seemed to showcase the most unbothered expression on her face before turning her head to notice Kamino out in the city. She would then wave her hand in the air, keeping the unbothered expression on her face as she was signaling Kamino to come over.)

Kamino: “Is she calling me over?”

(Kamino would then walk over to the maid as he was curious on what she really wanted.)

???: “I didn’t expect you to be out of the palace so soon, I was certain Her Majesty would have more tests for you.”
Kamino: “Tests?”
???: “Whenever Her Majesty summons a Villain to Villain City, they are put through numerous tests to ensure they are strong enough to survive against the Heroes. You must be pretty strong if you’ve managed to defeat Her Majesty."
Kamino: “Actually… I beat her right-hand Villainess.”
???: “Lady Mita?! She’s- Dear goodness, tell me you didn’t attack her while she was changing hairstyles!”
Kamino: “Is that some kind of a bad thing here?”
???: Very if it’s Lady Mita! She is known as one of the most vengeful Villains in the entirety of Villain City! Once her hair is ruined, Hero or Villain, she will make sure she has your throat slit…!”

Kamino: “...Interesting.”

(With the smirk of an intrigued assassin, Kamino would then turn back around and return to the palace as the maid then accompanied him.)

???: “Where are you going??”

Kamino: “I’m going back to the palace to find Mita, then fight her while she’s this enraged. This will give me another chance to show to those Villains how good at a fight I am.”

???: “Are you mad?! In her vengeful state, she’ll kill you!”
Kamino: “I live for the taste of blood. Fighting a vengeful enemy has always been my turn on.”

(With Kamino confidently spewing those words out of his mouth, he’d boldly march back to the palace as the two were moments away from a second fight, both more versatile and bloodlusted.)
