DOOMED TO BE A VILLAIN

"So, why don't you?" Davies asked her with a slight smile on his face, but without waiting for an answer he turned towards the others and asked,

"And you guys… why the hell are you using an RPG formation in real-life battles?" Davies asked them as well,

"Because…" Anthony tried to answer but Davies cut in,

"Because what… because you're a tank or a damage dealer, or a long ranger or a mage…"

"Wake the fuck up!"

"This isn't some systematic game with some systematic spells or systematic attacks. How you use your blessing is up to you so stop following the belief that because your blessing is geared towards one direction, you can't be anything else or do anything else."

"Truly your teamwork flows fluidly, and you were able to hold out, but you're condemning yourself to only one way of battle…"

"Have you ever stopped to wonder if you were alone, how would you fight,"

"You have to graduate from fighting as an organization,"

"... to fighting as an organism."

"Okay, good talk…" Davies said nonchalantly and began to walk towards the snow-covered forest in the distance.

"If you guys want to wait there until the scent of blood attracts more monsters, you're welcome to stay there," Davies said without turning back as he walked away.

"Uh? … wait for us!" Tisha shouted and ran towards Teresa to help her up,

'With him, we should be able to survive long enough to complete the mission,' Sakura thought as she also began to go after Davies, she didn't want to say it out loud, but they would probably die before they could even kill a thousand B-rank monsters, nobody spoke about it because they didn't want to bring down their morale and put more pressure on themselves so they tried to act cheerfully as if completing the mission would be a breeze, but with the power Davies had shown, completing the mission had become a possibility.

[Nice speech, I almost believed you actually cared about those guys]

'I do care… about what use they can be to me,'

'If they don't break out of their current mindset, then they can't get strong enough to be useful to me quickly enough,' Davies replied to Miya as he continued towards the forest.

The B-Squad had caught up with Davies as he walked towards the forest, but as they walked, he noticed them shivering because of the cold though they tried to hide it.

[At this rate they'll die from the cold before they can be of any use] Miya said to Davies,

"Tch…" he clicked his tongue in annoyance.

"Here," Davies summoned the inventory and put his hand inside, and began to bring out winter jackets from his inventory and threw them over towards them.

'They're lucky, I just changed locations, so I was hauling a lot of things around,' he thought as he also brought out a cloak from his inventory for himself and put it on.

"Thank you," Teresa said as she walked faster to catch up to him and was now walking by his side.

"I'm impressed that you guys didn't lose it when you found out that the gate was B-rank," Davies said to her, ignoring her words of appreciation.

"It's because we are thought to never lose our cool in the gate as many unexpected things can happen,"

"If you don't have a clear mind in such situations, then you're already half-dead," Teresa explained, hoping to draw Davies into a conversation.

"Well… at least they got that part of your training right," Davies replied half-heartedly.

"Hey what did you mean by following systematic spells and attacks?" Teresa asked again, not giving up on getting into conversation with him, but Davies just stopped in his tracks and gave her an incredulous look.

'... Did she actually never even think about it?' Davies thought as he looked at her clueless face.

'Wind is the most versatile element, she could use it to attack, defend, control, or even to fly, and yet she's only thinking of being a glass cannon that only attacks with big skills…'

'... This world is full of idiots,' Davies thought as he facepalmed, confusing Teresa who asked the question.

"You can't follow the same path that someone else already followed and expect to arrive somewhere else," Davies simply said and turned to Tisha who was just behind Teresa,

"You didn't answer my previous question," but Tisha suddenly started levitating and began flying towards the forest instead and she turned to shout at Davies,

"Catch me if you want an answer, bleeeh," she said with her tongue out in a childish manner.

'You've got to be kidding me,'

'The one with the most versatile use of her blessing is not attacking to kill,' Davies thought as he rubbed his forehead.

[Fate or destiny, I don't know which one of them is running things, but whoever is... doesn't like you… like at all] Miya snickered.

"Is she always like this?" Davies asked the rest of the B-Squad who were walking behind him, but he could already tell by her their wry smiles what the answer was.

"Ah, shit…" Davies turned back towards the direction that Tisha had flown in and began to run after her. He could tell that Tisha did not have the ability to fly but was using her telekinesis to carry herself in the air and while it may seem extremely easy, it required a great deal of control that could only be gotten if one was in the Mana zone stage, and for her to be in the mana zone stage at her age, she wasn't just talented… she was a monster.

Also, he would never say "No" to a challenge from a girl as cute as she was. With that in mind, Davies created a platform of ice that he jumped on and used his mana to shoot into the air as he was sent airborne after the playful girl and began the "Need for Answers: Air Chase".

Davies jumped towards Tisha to try to catch her as soon as he got close enough to her, but she cleverly used her telekinesis to move herself out of the way, dodging Davies's attempt to catch her. Davies had to create another ice platform to stop himself from falling to the ground and then once again went after her but every time she managed to dodge his attempts to catch her.

[It's no good, she has the advantage in the air… you wouldn't be able to catch her unless you can fly, which you can't] Miya told Davies as Tisha dodged his attempt to catch her the 5th time.

'Heh… I almost forgot,'

'The villain doesn't have to play fair,' he replied to Miya. Unknowingly he had a smile on his face as he went after Tisha once again.

Davies moved towards Tisha, who looked at him coming towards her with a cheeky smile as she had dodged every one of his attempts to catch her but unluckily for her, this time Davies wasn't going to play fair.

As Davies flew towards her, he outstretched his hand and made huge hands of ice that flanked her from both sides and tried to use them to catch her, but Tisha managed to stop the hands from grasping her by making barriers to block the hands just before they managed to block her.

Tisha's cheeky smile widened after she stopped Davies's new attempt to try to catch her but,

"Ice explosion," Davies said with a smiling face as he had gotten her exactly where he wanted her to be. She was barely using her telekinesis to keep herself afloat while also using her barriers to stop his ice hands from grabbing.

*Boom*

The ice hands blew up and broke Tisha's barrier while the ice that blew up blocked her view.

"Checkmate," she heard as Davies appeared from inside the ice powder that clouded her view as he dove towards her and grabbed her before she could make any moves.

Davies crashed into her, and they fell towards the ground and into the snow.

*Plooosh*

"Now… about my… question," Davies said, gasping for breath as he lay on the snowy floor as he had fallen first, and she had fallen directly on him.

Davies was expecting an answer to his question, but what he got was a feeling of her lips against his as she kissed him all of a sudden. Before he could respond to her kiss, she pulled away from him with a red face and ran away.

"O… kay,"

"What the hell was that?" Davies wondered, confused by her behavior.
