Villain: Ultimate Mutation System in the Alternate World

The wind swept through the open window of the truck as George and Reign went on their journey down the long highway road.

With the news of the town's tragic fate, it was certain to attract unwanted attention, so they made the decision to leave the area behind and make their way towards the city.

Reign continued in deceiving George and manipulating him, using Anna rescue mission as leverage to ensure he had his own chauffeur.

He chose George for the task because it was uncommon for someone like him, a human, to remain unaffected by the numerous deaths surrounding him. This quality made him an ideal servant for a monster.

'Fresh air,'

As the scenery unfolded before him, he observed mountains and an abundance of trees stretching into the distance.

Memories of his hometown flooded back; it too was surrounded by trees, and he often went hiking with his mother before she got sick.

'Not good,' Reign muttered to himself, realizing he was getting sidetracked. This was his new world now, and dwelling on the past was a waste of time.

Contemplating this, he decided to speak with George to gain more general knowledge about this world. Engaging in such discussions was far more worthwhile.

"So, can you tell me about Summit City?" Reign inquired, now adorned with shades, a scarf, and a hoodie, concealing much of his skeletal face.

"Are you referring to the entire area in square kilometers or just the city?" George inquired, seeking clarification.

"Just the city,"

The measurement used in this place was the same as on his own planet, a realization he came to after asking George about various things. It served as proof that no matter the world, mathematics remained a consistent and universal language.

'At least this place uses meters, and not feet. That would complicate things,' Reign added, appreciating the simplicity of the metric system over the imperial system.

"It's just a medium size city ,around 400 square kilometers, " George replied while focusing on the road.

"Only 400?" Reign mused, taking note of Summit City's size.

It was very small compared to his home city in his past life, which encompassed 1,200 square kilometers metropolitan area.

In fact, the largest city in his former world, his father's territory, spanned a whopping 72,000 square kilometers metro city.

The enormity of the city was such that the tallest building had its own oxygen supply due to its height. The entire area relied on a Hyperloop train system for transportation, facilitating movement throughout the city.

Additionally, it boasted a population of 180,000,000 people .

He even heard rumors that the largest mall there was so big that it would take a person two weeks to walk through the entire place.

While his father, the Evil Monarch, may have had a notorious reputation for being ruthless, when it came to the welfare and security of the citizens, he was unparalleled in governing his own nation.

"What do you mean only 400? So you're telling me that you know a city bigger than this? I thought you said you were a newborn demon?" George raised his eyebrows in skepticism, questioning Reign's claim.

"I just think it's small ,nothing much to it ," Reign replied. There was no need to explain himself to a servant .

Observing Reign's haughty attitude, George felt compelled to elaborate further.

"Listen,, Summit City might not be impressive to you, but let me enlighten you on how cities are measured," George stated with a serious tone, drawing on the rumors he had heard from her wife before she disappeared on him .

"We got Tier 4, a modest 300 square kilometers requirements. Then there's Tier 3, clocking in at around 2,000. Tier 2 steps it up to 10,000 square kilometers. And finally, Tier 1, with 50,000 square kilometers. That's the real scale of cities, and Summit City doesn't even come close."

"I see," Reign nodded in understanding "No wonder there are still towns in this area," he murmured, gently touching his chin in thought.

"That's not entirely correct," George interjected, shaking his head. "Some simply prefer the tranquility of country life," he clarified.

Reign remained silent, showing little interest in further discussion on the matter.

"How about those people wielding swords?" he redirected the conversation.

George paused, deep in thought. "I don't have all the details, but according to my wife, there are individuals in this world who hunt demons in the shadows," he explained.

"Its not really far-fetched, considering how news of demons is often suppressed, I wouldn't be surprised if there are more of you evil monsters lurking around."

"Why hide it though?" Reign inquired, perplexed.

In his old world, the existence of superpowers was widely acknowledged and accepted.

"Maybe because it would freak people out?" George suggested with a shrug. "I mean, knowing there are demons out there munching on humans wouldn't exactly keep everyone calm," he added with a wry smile.

Reign absorbed George's words, empathizing with his perspective.

In his previous world, people with superpowers were acknowledged, but they all looked human, making it easier for society to accept them.

Their abilities were seen as just that—powers, nothing more.

However, demons, with their habit for devouring humans to grow stronger, posed a much greater challenge to acceptance.

In fact, demons and humans were fundamentally different, making coexistence virtually impossible.

"You're quite chatty today," George remarked, pulling Reign from his thoughts.

"Yeah, I just want to learn more So, you mentioned a place where I can hunt down more humans, right?" Reign responded.

The two struck a deal; George would disclose the location of a safe hunting ground where Reign could harvest humans to enhance his strength.

Even if he managed to locate Anna, saving her would be impossible without sufficient power. That was the bait Reign used to hoodwink George into helping him.

"Yeah, there's a mental hospital I know of," George began to explain. "Most of the patients there are criminals, and it's located in a pretty remote area, atop a mountain. If you were to attack it, it would take the authorities quite some time to respond," he elaborated.

"You really know your stuff," Reign was impressed by George's resourcefulness .

He glanced at Reign and let out a sigh.

"I hate to admit it, but I've been doing some research, just in case Anna decided to go on a killing spree," he confessed. "If she did, wouldn't it be better for her to target criminals?" he asked, trying to justify his actions.

"I don't really care if they're innocent or a criminal," Reign chuckled. He couldn't help but feel that George was being hypocritical, just like him, for not wanting to harm children.

"Sure you're a monster so you wont understand the feelings of a human," George shook his head.

"To call yourself human is quite funny, don't you think?" Reign mocked George with a sly tone. "You let your daughter kill people, and now you're assisting me in killing more ? I'd say you're more of a monster than I am," he added, his tone dripping with sarcasm.

"I..." George was speechless, unable to find words to reply.

'Is it just me, or did this monster become smarter?' George thought to himself, taken aback by the unexpected turn of events.
