Villain: Ultimate Mutation System in the Alternate World

CRACK!

Reign pulled his arm from the wall and checked if his hand was okay.

He was durable, but the hole made by the rail gun round showed its incredible penetration.

If not for his defense, it would have drilled straight through the wall.

'Am I not putting enough much power into this?' he mused, rubbing his chin thoughtfully.

He still had a lot of ways and skills if it was just increasing his destructive power , so he wondered if this was really the right way of doing things .

"But if I use that, this whole place might collapse from the shockwave," he rubbed his temple, unsure whether to unleash his strongest attack.

'There's also a chance it could destroy the rune completely, wasting all my effort.'

'If force isn't the answer, then maybe there's a mechanism here that will allow me to get it after I meet some conditions,' he concluded, pacing around the rune.

He noticed markings on the stand and followed them downward to a tablet in the ground that contain texts.

"System, I have auto-translation ability, right? Can you translate this?" he asked.

In this world, they used a different type of language, but thanks to his system, it automatically translated everything he read and heard.

[System: Negative, host. This text is in an alien language.]

"An alien language? So whoever created this isn't from this world?" he exclaimed, feeling like he was onto something.

[System: Affirmative]

Reign paused for a moment, his mind racing with possibilities. "Am I considered an alien too?" he asked aloud.

[System: Affirmative]

He nodded, already expecting it to be the case. "Is there a way for me to translate this?"

[System: Affirmative]

"There is? How?"

[System: Host, you can study the language behind the runes using the system Intermediate Mode.]

"I can do that? Why didn't you tell me sooner?"

[System: Intermediate Mode requires a lot of processing power, so it is currently locked. You will unlock this mode after reaching level 100]

"That's too long," he shook his head.

With his current speed of leveling, he wasn't even sure if he could reach that level after destroying multiple Tier 3 city.

"Is there any other way ?"

The system had become smarter after Reign unknowingly kept feeding it every time he gain EXP . This was also the reason why he was leveling up at a snail's pace.

However, being unaware of this, he just attributed it to the idea that the stronger he got, the higher the EXP requirements were.

It also helped that the system's responsiveness allowed him to ask it more frequently about things he was unsure of.

Slowly, he began to trust the system more and more.

[System: You can unlock a portion of Intermediate Mode , the Language Analyzer ]

"Unlock it," he hurriedly ordered.

[System: Cost of Language Analyzer… computing.]

[System: Cost of Language Analyzer: All Attribute Points]

"This..." he was shocked after hearing the system's greedy pricing.

At this point, he started suspecting that it was using him as food collector.

"Hey, system, isn't this counterproductive? Why are you being so greedy with me? You're slowing my growth!" he retorted.

[System: That's not true host. You've grown powerful. The system now has to do more work and needs more processing to keep up with your power. This happens when you use the cheat-like function of the system. It lets you grow very fast, beyond normal means.]

[Benefits that the system provided host]

>>Skill Assistance

>>Energy Control

>>Energy Filter System

>>Miasma Immunity

>>Auto Translation

>>System Guiding Function

>>System Inquiry

>>System Organizer

>>System EXP Converter

>>System Atomic Conversion

>>System Auto Image Converter

>>System Alarm

>>More

The list started to stack up, and Reign was shocked to see how much work the system was doing in the background.

"I..." He was speechless.

He felt like the system was acting like a wife. She had begun tallying all the help, money, and resources she had given him after he started becoming successful. It was to remind him of his place.

"Please stop listing more, I get it, I get it. Thank you for everything. I'm sorry for being too ungrateful," he pleaded in defeat.

"Take it all, give me the Language Analyzer,"

[Language Analyzer, Unlock]

After the upgrade, he finally saw the option.

He noticed that it also costs more skill points to analyze the runes' language, but this time he decided to shut up.

The moment he clicked the analyze button, a torrent of information surged into his mind.

Bit by bit, he started to decipher the core concepts of the text more deeply.

Diagrams, symbols, and text data filled his mind. They showed tiny details about language's structure and meaning.

"Wait, is this real?" He was shock after seeing the translated text.

=====

Whoever reads this must be of my kin, and I have departed this world a long time ago already.

I am Satoshi, the creator of these Runes. I crafted them to grant humans a chance against demons.I know one person's strength is not sufficient to save humanity.

Thus, I created the Breathing Techniques, taught the forging of powerful katanas, and crafted these runes. I left behind legacies I hope will aid humanity.

To those now wielding my legacy, I wish you will one day eradicate all demons from this world and prove that humans deserve to survive.

From Satoshi,

I hope to see you again my motherland, "Nihon" - Land of the Rising Sun.

=====

"Satoshi, huh?," he thought to himself. But he didn't find it weird, considering Aiku was also an uncommon name in this world.

He was just surprised that the name wasn't more exotic, considering the system had identified it as an alien language.

'Maybe this Satoshi was Aiku's ancestor. It could be possible if the guy lived a very long time ago,' he thought.

He was also intrigued by the last text, "Land of the Rising Sun."

There was a nation on his old world, before his father united all the nations, that has that same tag line, but it started with J and not N.

After pondering the less important details, Reign finally got some clues from the text.

These runes were made to fight demons. So, they had defenses to stop demons from getting them.

So, how did he get the runes inside his body?

Simple. Those runes were no longer pure; they had already been absorbed and broken by humans, so the defense mechanisms were no longer in place.

And with the help of the system, he was able to acquire their power.

'The reason it reacted was because even though I'm not a demon in the literal sense, my whole body is still filled with demonic elements. If I learn how to isolate all energies related to demons, then I should be able to pick it up normally,' he hypothesized in his head.

'But how?'

His mind raced as he searched for a solution until suddenly, an idea struck him.

He raised his hands, using what he had learned about controlling energy from when he unlocked his "DNA CLUSTERS"

Focusing on only releasing his Lightning element, he carefully separated it from the other energies inside him.

CRACK!

Sparks of bright blue lightning emerged in his hand, the purest form of the lightning attribute.

'I hope this works,' he smiled wryly as he cautiously reached out to grab the rune.
