Should I Become a Villain?

Radmilo glared at the giant red butterfly and swung his sword. He cut through a part of the butterfly's body, but it kept flying forward.

The man stood firm on the ground, holding his sword in both hands. He then punched the butterfly with all his might. It was not enough to kill it, but it made the butterfly stop moving.

As soon as the butterfly stopped moving, the storm vanished immediately. The butterfly, on the other hand, was still alive and breathing heavily.

Radmilo wasted no time in killing the giant butterfly. He did not use his magic because he needed to save his magical energy. After all, this was only an A-class dungeon. He did not need to activate any of his skills to kill the monsters.

After killing the giant butterfly, Radmilo discovered there were other monsters like it inside the dungeon. A giant poisonous bee was now flying in front of him. It was bigger than the one in the garden, so Radmilo could tell it was probably stronger.

He did not know if it would attack him because the bee monster was just staring at him. He was cautious in approaching it until he discovered its weak point.

There was a small hole on top of its head where a horn was growing out of it. Radmilo aimed at that location and stabbed the giant bee.

The body of the giant bee quickly melted into a red liquid. It was poisonous. Radmilo then smeared the remnants of poison into his sword.

Because he already had the Poison Resistance, a small amount of poison would not harm him. He also discovered some honey inside the stomach of the giant bee. He did not want to eat it because it was poisonous.

Instead, Radmilo used it as bait to lure more monsters. A special giant bee's honey scent may attract monsters. After the hunters learned about the use of honey, they started to use it in their strategy.

Radmilo would use the honey because he wanted to save time. It would be better if the dungeon boss approached him, rather than having to go around the dungeon looking for it.

A moment later, the ground shook, and everything around Radmilo flew away. He plunged his sword into the ground and gripped it so he could stand up straight.

All the monsters in the dungeon came to him because they were provoked by the honey scent. The powerful monsters that appeared were giant ants, a giant spider, a giant caterpillar, a giant centipede, a giant cockroach, and a giant scorpion.

Then there were also low-class monsters that died instantly when Radmilo slashed his sword.

"Where's your boss?" Radmilo asked while looking at the powerful monsters, but got no answer.

Instead, they attacked him straight away. To avoid their attacks, Radmilo jumped into one of the trees in the dungeon. However, he soon realized that the monsters were following him. They were climbing over the branches and crawling under them, trying to reach him.

Radmilo swung his sword to kill the giant caterpillar, which made his body feel ticklish. Even though he was strong, the caterpillar always made him uncomfortable.

"What a disgusting monster!" Radmilo frowned at the sight of the greenish liquid on his sword. It was the liquid produced by a giant caterpillar.

The monster had died from climbing the tree trunk to reach Radmilo. The other giant monsters seemed to understand that he was not an easy opponent. Because of that, they quickly teamed up to attack him at the same time.

A giant cockroach flew at him along with a giant spider that threw a web at his body. Despite their speed, Radmilo could still dodge them. He jumped into another tree, but giant ants and a giant centipede crawled up the tree and swarmed over his feet.

"Ugh, I hate this!"

Radmilo screamed while kicking his leg to release a giant ant that was biting his boot. As soon as the ant fell to the ground, he immediately attacked the giant centipede and anything that came crawling up his legs.

At the same time, he also dodged the attacks of the cockroach monster that had managed to catch up to him. His focus then turned to the giant scorpion that was waiting on the next tree branch.

"You look smart. You know I'm going to jump in there, right?"

The scorpion monster ignored Radmilo who asked him. From where it was, it moved its poisonous tail to attack Radmilo. At least the scorpion wanted to make the man fall from the tree if its poison tail was blocked.

But Radmilo paid no heed to the poisonous stinger on the scorpion's tail. He let the tail pierce his back while he dealt a final sword strike to the giant cockroach monster.

The scorpion monster gasped when it realized that the poison did not affect Radmilo. No one had ever been alive after being stabbed by the poison. That meant only one thing, the man was stronger than all the A-rank hunters he had killed.

"Surprised? I still have something stronger than this. You cannot kill me. Give up and tell me where the dungeon boss is," Radmilo spoke while defeating all the ant monsters that were creeping up on him.

However, the giant spider monster that had been silent for a while began to show its ferocity again. It had gathered its energy and was about to coil Radmilo's body into its spider web.

The giant scorpion seemed silent to consider his decision, unlike the giant spider that kept attacking Radmilo with its spider fingers.

In the end, the giant spider monster was split in two because of Radmilo's sword. More importantly, the giant scorpion had no other choice. If it had rejected him, it would have had the same fate as the giant spider.

"I will give you three seconds," Radmilo said as he walked over to the scorpion monster. "One... Two... Th-"

"The dungeon boss is in a black cocoon! She is a butterfly queen. You can find her in the cave you will find after walking three meters."

Radmilo grinned when he got the information he wanted. It turned out that the dungeon boss was still in the cocoon. He was no longer curious why the monsters did not appear when all the monsters were provoked by the smell of honey.

After walking for three meters, Radmilo found the cave the giant scorpion spoke of. When he got into it, he saw a lot of cocoons.

However, his attention was only focused on a black cocoon that was larger than the other cocoons. It was the cocoon the giant scorpion was referring to.

"I know you're in that cocoon. Come out or I will force you out," Radmilo said as he pointed his sword at the cocoon.

Nelva the Strom Fiend growled because someone disturbed her sleep time. She had to come out of her cocoon because she did not want the stranger to ruin hers.

Meanwhile, Radmilo narrowed his eyes when he saw the cocoon moving and a woman with black butterfly wings coming out of it. He knew each flap of those wings would create a storm like the giant red butterfly he had defeated.

Unfortunately, Nelva did not seem to flap her wings in that cave. She looked calm as she gave Radmilo the code to walk out of the cave. "We can fight freely out there."

Radmilo was silent, but he agreed with those words. The cave just now would have restricted movement if they had insisted on fighting there.

As soon as the two of them came out of the cave, Nelva flew up and flapped her wings vigorously. The storm she created was bigger than any other butterfly monster could do.

She looked around her and found the corpses of the monsters that Radmilo had defeated. She then looked at the man with a smirk. "Are you really strong that you can defeat the monsters in this garden alone? I can't wait to taste your power!"

"Why don't you just stop talking and come to me? I would be happy to welcome you," Radmilo replied, gripping his sword tightly as he watched Nelva fly over.

He focused his gaze on Nelva's chest and head. As the distance between him and the butterfly monster drew closer, he lunged to plunge his sword into Nelva's head.

The butterfly monster managed to dodge. However, Radmilo's sword stabbed and hit part of her face, so she still received fatal damage. She screamed while holding her injured face.

"W-what is this? Why can't I heal my wounds?" Nelva glared in surprise because the wound on her face did not heal automatically, as usual.

Radmilo who knew the answer to that question smiled. "I'm sorry. The weapon I carry is too strong. For five minutes, this sword will be in a mode of 'Crippling Slash' where anything it cuts cannot recover. My sword contains a lot of lethal poison that prevents your body from healing as long as this mode is active."
