Reincarnated and Regressed Villain - Make heroines beg for forgiveness

"Why not take these two puppies along with us?"

'!?'

Amayara's eyes widened upon hearing Angelica's words, causing her to swiftly come between Arvi and her, while pleading, "Please, Your Majesty, my sister is ill; she can't move. I will always be grateful to you and His Highness."

She indirectly proposed to Alisia to help her now, and in exchange, she would give loyalty, which did not go unnoticed by Angelica either.

Narrowing her gaze, Angelica's interest was increasing in this little girl even more, seeing how she wanted to avoid her at all costs.

"Sister, why not let me have this—!?" Before Angelica could say something, her senses rang, causing her to swiftly turn her head towards the direction.

'What was that just now?' Due to Angelica's strength, her senses could detect even the mildest anomaly in the air, and right now, her olfactory receptors caught a metallic smell, especially found in the race of Banzac's blood.

"Ryuk?!"

SWISH

Again, another sound caused her to turn towards Alisia's direction, where only her afterimage was present, causing Angelica's eyes to widen since Alisia had just reached 〖ZENITH〗 within a mere spec of time before vanishing.

SWISH

Not delaying any more time, Angelica vanished too.

'R-ryuk?' Amayara processed Alisia's last words from vanishing, slowly her mind filling with.

Thud

"Ouch."

Suddenly, Arvi's elevated body fell on the ground, causing her to wince in pain before slowly standing while rubbing her butt.

Looking towards her sister, she inquired, "Why did you throw me... What's with your face?" but instead of complaining, noticing Amayara's eyes widened, Arvi changed her question.

"Arvi, don't go anywhere from here, I will be back in sometime!"

SWISH

Amayara sprinted towards the direction where she felt a faint sensation of them vanishing, leaving Arvi behind with a widened mouth.

Far away from Capital City, within the boundaries of the Selvius Kingdom, inside one of the forest grounds filled with greenery, witnessed the marks of an intense battle.

Yet, only an area of a mile was devoid of any tree or presence, only barren, filled with three individuals present in the middle.

THUD THUD

Two bodies, one belonging to a bulky man now painted in blue liquid oozing from his now dissipated hand while the body seemed like the soul was sucked out, leaving only a hollow shrunk shell.

The same happened with the other woman, green veins with all skin sticking to bones showed a miserable state, fallen on the ground.

[ Life Force is Dried, Both Individuals' Deaths Are Confirmed ]

'System, Now tell me Mother's Loca— Badump!' Before Ryuk could inquire any further, suddenly it felt like his heart was crushed by hands.

Within a moment his heartbeat skyrocketed to 200, directly rupturing his veins.

"Cough!....thud" Not understanding what happened, intense pain shrouded his body, falling on the ground with his stumbling body.

A sharp pain bombarded his brain neurons; it felt as if a thousand needles were cutting him from inside.

"Kughh...System, What is happening?!" Due to his endurance surpassing any norms, he was able to remain sane even in that pain, which was ten times more than that once's foundation being destroyed.

[ EMERGENCY!!! Your Artery has Ruptured, Heartbeat is rising at a rapid pace ]

[ HEALING -- » DONE! ]

"Haa....Haaa....It seems— Badump!" Ryuk's eyes widened the moment he felt the same intense pain tearing through his soul again, even after feeling some relief due to the system.

thump thump thump

"Kuughh!" He coiled his body, his eyes becoming crimson, feeling the intense agony assaulting his body. Trying to get hold of himself, he gritted his teeth to control himself.

[ ALERT! Several Internal Injuries are occurring at the same time ]

[ Scanning..... ]

[ Scan Completed!, Devereaux Bloodline is Acting Vigorously ]

Drip

"Aghh! " Crimson liquid started to trickle down from his nose. His eyes widened, once amber eyes started to flicker before losing their color, turning completely white.

[ Forced Suppression ---- > ACCESS DENIED! ]

[ Host, Please grant access to your body, Bloodline is running rampant within your Body, Urgent Suppression is needed or it could be Life Threatening! ]

'You Bastard!' Ryuk's mind filled with intense pain, unable to comprehend if this scenario was some trick done by the System, without being able to get better clarity on the events happening to him.

[ Host, Please Grant Permission, you have already damaged more than 70% of your internal organs, I can only keep you alive for some more time ]

Lying on the ground, the pain which Ryuk was enduring had started to cross all boundaries. His facial veins bulged, eyes turning white, losing their amber hue.

His mind was not in a state to make any rational decisions; he couldn't even grasp what was happening to him.

But one thing was certain: he was dying.

At that moment, his mind held only one thought: how had everything suddenly turned like this?

Things had been going perfectly as he wanted, but now, it all felt like crumbling.

Slowly, his vision started to shroud in pitch-black darkness. He didn't know if it was the System's betrayal or some other reason, but he needed to survive this at all costs.

'Do i...'

Thump—

Ryuk's heart stopped beating at that very moment before he could complete his words. His breathing ceased, and he fell into an unconscious state, his eyes now lifeless.

[ DANGER!!!!! Host's life force is drained, System is falling into hibernation.....]

SWISH SWISH

Two figures materialized at a distance from the borders, arriving in the middle of the forest grounds, flattened in the middle encircling a barren field.

tap tap

"....S-son?" Alisia's eyes widened, not paying any attention to anything, her feet slowly approaching the lifeless body lying in the middle, her mind falling into a trance.

On the other hand, Angelica's gaze was fixed on two dead bodies lying at a distance. Narrowing her gaze, she turned it towards the little boy's body lying just a few steps away from them.

'Did he just..?' Her facial expression revealed her bewilderment, gritting her teeth, understanding the loss she bore would be something she could never fulfill.

"N-no... Child," Alisia arrived near Ryuk, her eyes seemed to take all this as some illusion, not wanting to believe anything, especially that his body seemed lifeless.

Thud

Falling on her knees, her trembling hand moved towards her child, feeling overwhelmed by the severity of the whole situation.

The moment her hand touched Ryuk's cheek, what awaited her was a slight coldness.

drip

A lone tear slid past her eyes, feeling how even his body's warmth left his body.

"No... no... No, my child," Alisia tightly hugged Ryuk's body, feeling overwhelmed, but her eyes remained dry as if she had lost her own soul.

SWOOSH

An intense aura surged out of Alisia's body, expanding and observing the surrounding area into its light.

CRACKLE

The ground it touched started to become green on its own, plants started to grow. It felt magical, how the barren land was healing.

"Stop it or you will kill yourself!" Angelica swiftly shook Alisia, holding her shoulder, seeing how she was using her own life force to create a dome to heal things within, her hollow eyes fixed on the ground.

"Why are you here?" Alisia's blank gaze, even though fixed on Ryuk, wanted to know the reason for Angelica to come here with two more people.

"Sorry?" Angelica looked at Alisia who calmly placed Ryuk on the ground, slowly standing from her position, her loosened body and hollow gaze fixed downward.

"Wait, don't tell me you are doubting me for all this, Alisia?" Angelica narrowed her gaze, realizing the severity of the situation.

The moment she saw both of her people die, it was clear she would be suspected.

Since this was what every Devereaux member would have done.

WHOOSH

A sword materialized in Alisia's hand, her rank reaching the peak of 〖ZENITH〗. Approaching Angelica, her hollow eyes screamed her pain, which was just understandable to her.

It felt like a part of her soul was torn off.

A pain which no one can understand, seeing your child's cold body for whom you left everything and went against this world.

"You thought Alisia is now weak, can't even protect her own son, aren't you, Angelica?" Alisia's eyes lifted, gazing at Angelica who was calculating everything. From her perspective, Alisia would never attack her on this continent since it would be destruction if both fought here.

"You know, your child is the one who killed them," peeking at the now lifeless body, still not believing a child with the tender age of eleven could kill two powerhouses whose mere presence threatened the world.

"You really want me to believe this bullshit. Ryuk may be strong but killing two of them was not possible for him." Alisia's anger was slowly shrouding her senses, feeling helpless, not knowing what she should do now when there was no one left beside her.

WHOOSH

"Huh, you think I sacrificed my two people just to kill your son? Don't be delusional, sister," Angelica's grip tightened on her sword while referring to the drawback hidden inside the Devereaux Bloodline.

Just like other bloodlines present on Ardoros Continent, the Devereaux Bloodline also had a very huge drawback, something which was advantageous yet the most severe weakness of the whole bloodline.

Devereaux members could never kill their own bloodline. If they did so, their own blood would kill themselves from within—a drawback known only to a few members outside the Devereaux Family.

This was also the reason why the Devereaux Family promoted Flagbearer battles against their heirs, meaning no one could become the next head if they were not able to kill each other. The solution?

Throw each of the contestants outside Ardoros to fight each other with strategies and kill indirectly, meaning exhaust them to the point of death and then use other means like monsters, demons, or other races to kill them.

A method that was most difficult to apply when your opponent knows what you are trying to achieve.

This is why Flagbearers of the Devereaux Family are hailed throughout Bluestar. They don't only use raw strength to win but fight an opponent with the intent to not kill.

There is a saying: Fighting someone of the same level with the intent to kill is much easier than to avoid killing someone doing his best to kill you.

Alisia Devereaux and Angelica Devereaux both reigned at the second and third positions respectively for the Flagbearer battle with extravagant kills of 18 and 12 each.

Their opponents were fellow Bloodline members with strength near to them, yet they were able to kill each of them, showing the control and mastery over their senses and skills.

"You expect me to believe an eleven-year-old kid killed two battle veterans and crushed them one-sidedly?"

SWISH

Finishing her words, Alisia's figure blurred before closing a large distance between her and Angelica, their gazes meeting with each other. The intensity at which their amber eyes shined was enough to show the determination of their wills.

BAAAANNGG!!!!

.

.

.

.

A collision sent shockwaves through the whole Heindal Continent, shaking its foundations.

Right now, the entire land was trembling as if struck by a huge earthquake, something never witnessed by the natives.

CRUMBLE

"Ahhh, what is happening!" one of the commoners ran out of his house but lost balance and fell to the ground.

The whole land was shaking at a tremendous pace.

CRACK

Cracks started to form on the ground, the sheer impact originating from Selvius Kingdom's borders sent nearby kingdoms into turmoil.

"Stop it, don't come here!" a woman stopped her child from crossing a crack that was enlarging, horror evident on their faces.

"P-please, someone save... AHHHH!" One of the people running through the crowd fell into the crack, making others even more panicked.

"Calm down, everyone. You need to control yourselves!" A soft voice resonated in the middle of the havoc, causing everyone to turn towards the owner, a girl with pink hair carrying a sword accompanied by a boy.

"Sister, what is happening here?" Celestian also felt timely shocks shaking the whole land, the impacts were too powerful for the wooden houses to bear, inevitably breaking apart.

"I don't know, this only happened whe—!?" Suddenly, Karina's mind remembered the day of her previous life when they had collided with Ryuk von Selvius, a day which not only destroyed them but even the whole Heindal was messed up.

Landslides, earthquakes, ocean levels rising were just minor things that happened that day. The mere impact was something that had caused enormous casualties within those seven days, but right now, Karina could feel it.

Heindal Continent was tearing apart and the center of it was Selvius Kingdom.

.

.

.

.

Far away from Heindal Continent, which was now bearing the marks of the collision of two entities at the epitome of strength, stood the Ardoros Continent, standing at the peak on the whole Blue Star.

Inside the Devereaux Family, several members felt the huge aura originating from Heindal Continent, causing each one of them to move towards that place.

The main reason for their approach was to witness the battle of Alisia Devereaux and Angelica Devereaux since every one of them identified that energy signature.

"Master, it seems that the boy is dead." A silhouette standing beside a woman knelt, revealing the outcome of the visit for bringing someone else leading to a huge loss.

The woman turned towards the direction of Heindal, calmly watching both of her daughters engaged in battle. Even with their calm expressions, she could feel the rage boiling from all these years bursting out.

"Bring my grandson here."
