Reborn As Villain's
Chapter 8: Before "The Panic Monster Incident".

In Dylan's room.

Currently Dylan was sitting in his bed with Filaret accompanying and helping feed his food.

"Young-san, Aaaaa".

Seeing Filaret's behavior treating her like a child made Dylan a little irritated.

But what power, Dylan could only resignedly accept all of that treatment.

As Dylan was chewing the food in his mouth, he realized that Filaret was watching him.

"What are you doing, Fila?".

Dylan who was curious about what Filaret was doing tried to ask.

"Nii-san!? What's with those two eyes!?".

"Is there something wrong with my eyes?".

"Hmmm..... After I take a good look!? Nii-san's eyes are like those of a predator!?.... You see, the pupils of Nii-san's eyes are not round, but in the form of Vertical fingers".

".......... Fila can you get me a mirror!? Let me see for myself........".

Filaret immediately stood up to pick up the glass and handed it to Dylan.

As soon as he saw his reflection in the mirror, Dylan knew that what Filaret was saying was true.

Dylan's irises remained a deep blue color that differed in the shape of his pupils turning into vertical lines.

And once again he tried to watch his eyes in front of the mirror.

After a while he finally realized that his eyes now resembled Fafnir's.

CLACK'S...

As Dylan pondered about his changed eyes, the sound of the door opening sounded. Dylan and Filaret immediately turned to the door and saw someone coming inside.

That man was his mother's Pavline.

"Dylan, are you okay?".

"....Ah yeah,......I'm better, mom".

"Thank God then".

His mother immediately calmed down after hearing that from her own son's mouth.

"Oh yeah, Fila-chan can you come out for a minute!? There's something I need to talk to, your brother".

"Alright, then I'm out first".

Filaret immediately stood up and left the room while closing the door again.

"What do you want to talk to me about?".

Without answering Dylan's question, Pavline immediately sat down on the chair Filaret had been wearing and began to speak.

"Dylan.... Please please don't get anything covered up again".

"Huh?".

"Mom accidentally heard the conversation between your father and Sonia?..... So, please answer this, son?...... About your unlimited magic energy?.... About you fighting the Dragon God King Fafnir?.....Half-Dragon...... The title "Dragon Killer"........ And that Uniqe Skill of yours?...... Please don't hide anything from my mother anymore..... I beg Dylan.... Mother please".

Hatching Pavline's tears asking for an explanation from his son.

(Eh?... Wait first?..... Half-Dragon?..... Dragon Killer?.... Uniqe Skill?.... What the hell?.... As I recall in the game there are no such things!?..... Did Dylan's character have some kind of Uniqe Skill?.... How did I just find out!?.... Not to mention you asked me to explain?..... Yeah, how do I know?..... And I have to answer what try?..... Hmmmm... Yosh, let's give you a reason that sounds reasonable).

Dylan, confused in his mind, finally found a solution to his mother's difficult questions.

"Alright, if that's what you want.... But, to be honest I don't know anything about my Uniqe Skill.... Instead, I will tell you how I can fight with Fafnir".

Pavline nodded in understanding what his son said.

"Initially...... ".

Dylan began to tell him everything that had happened to him without anything being reduced or exaggerated.

"That's how... What happened to me!?".

His mother could only bow silently after hearing all of Dylan's stories.

"And about the Limitless skill, though,.... I honestly just found out!?.... If only it was true that skill helped me to defeat Fafnir I was so grateful to have him.... But, you don't have to worry.... If that skill can also hurt me and make Mom or Dad worried.... Then, I won't use it".

Dylan said it was to make his mother not worry about him.

Hearing that his mother showed a calmer expression than before.

"Okay, mommy's happy to hear that!? But, you have to promise me one thing!? You can't make us all worry, understand!?".

"...... Alright... I-i promise.... ".

A little coerced, Dylan agreed to what his mother asked for.

".... But, .... I have a request too".

"What is that, Dylan?".

"....... Don't you ever tell Filaret what happened to me!?....... As hard as he asked...... I don't want him to worry".

"All right, I promise".

Likewise with the mother who also promised not to tell about Dylan who now has the title as "Dragon Killer" and also her who ventured into Half-Dragon.

However, neither Dylan nor his mother were aware.

That behind the door of Dylan's room was Filaret still there eavesdropping on all their talk.

Knowing what had happened to his sister whom he loved dearly, Filaret could only cry.

Filaret was not sad about what happened to Dylan.

But crying because he blamed himself who could not do anything to help his brother who had helped him a lot.

Ever since Dylan helped her out of the slump, Filaret has always tried to be a figure who can support or even protect her in the future.

But don't help.

Just helping Dylan heal, he can't.

That very day, Filaret was determined to be better, not just to protect her. But, it also became a person who could walk on the side as his companion.

Wiping away her tears, this time Filaret showed an expression filled with determination, but on one hand it was terrifying.

"You don't need to worry, Nii-san!?.... I will try to walk beside you, from now on!?.... And if there is a threat coming I will get rid of those who are in our streets!?.... Even if the barrier is a God".

Filaret immediately went to her room to begin practicing magic with renewed determination.

He let out a sinister aura so that the servants who passed by him became extremely frightened.

(----------)

1 Month has passed.

Dylan's condition is now fully healed.

Although he had just recovered, Dylan returned to training.

It was just that this time the purpose of his training was to gauge how far his physical and strength changes after defeating the Dragon God King, Fafnir.

As well as controlling his physical strength that had evolved as a Half-Dragon.

BANGS.

The mighty sound of a huge stone being smashed into pieces after receiving a fist from Dylan.

Seeing that the huge new was smashed into pieces by receiving his fists, Dylan showed a slightly disappointed expression.

"Haaa..... Destroyed again!?..... That was just ordinary boxing!?..... I guess my first task was to control and adjust my strength as a Half-Dragon".

Dylan just threw a light fist.

However, the fist had quite a severe effect.

"Well, now..... Joe-san!?......... Are you ready".

Dylan called out to Joehart the Arcadia family butler who was currently holding a bow and an arrow pointed right at Dylan.

"Lord.... Are you sure you're gonna do this?".

Joehart was terrified when Dylan told him to shoot himself.

"..... Don't worry, Joe-san!?..... Just shoot...".

Dylan asked Joehart not to worry and immediately shot him.

"If you're why-why don't blame me".

Joehart violently pulled the arrow, coated it with magic and released it.

The magic arrow shot out at high speed splitting the air and aimed right at Dylan's head.

The reason, because Dylan had already caught the arrow with his bare hands.

Seeing Dylan who managed to catch him, Joehart who from earlier was worried for the safety of his Master was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.

While Dylan, take a

conclusion of the experiment.

"......As it turned out, not only did my Physical and Magic powers increase!?..... My senses and response to attacks also increased".

Then Dylan thought for a moment, it could be seen with his habit of closing his eyes and his right hand touching his chin while looking down.

When his hand came down and his eyes opened again, it was as a sign that he had already gathered ideas in his head.

".... Joe-san's".

"Hhh".

"..... Can you get the Knights here".

"uh? Calling the Knights? What's for?".

"..... I want to sparring battle with them".

"You're serious, sir".

"...... Sure do.... Please call them".

"alright".

Joehart immediately rushed off to call the Knights. And a little while later the Knights came to Dylan's place.

"Report!? We, the Knights of Arcadia!? Come to see you".

The Captain immediately saluted Dylan, followed by the soldiers.

".... Don't be so formal, Captain Sebas..... We're not on an Expeditionary Mission... ".

The name of the Captain of the expedition team that Dylan and Filaret were following was Sebastian Floki.

He's a middle-aged man who's been devoted to the Knights of the Arcadia family for over 30 years.

Although he was no longer young, his ability in terms of sword science need not be doubted.

"Ha!? May I ask?.... What need did you call us here".

".... Ah, about that..... I want all of you.... Attacking me simultaneously".

"Eh?".

Sebastian and his soldiers immediately fell silent for a moment, seeing them speechless Dylan immediately explained his purpose.

"..... You guys don't have to worry..... I just want to coach..... To what extent is my stamina..... So, I'm just gonna dodge... ".

".... But, master!? Are you sure? We might be able to hurt you!? And we will definitely get a strong reprimand from Mr. Hyoga and Miss Pavline".

".... I told Mom and Dad what I was going to do....... You won't get any reprimand on this.... So, uh,..... Directly..... Attack me with all your abilities... ".

"All right!?.... Then!?..... All pull your swords and prepare to fight".

Dylan claimed that he had obtained permission from his father and mother.

After making sure of it Sebastian immediately stood up and gave his cue to his soldiers to be ready to fight.

As soon as the signal was given, the battle drill began between Dylan and the Knight Captain and his soldiers numbering around 100 people.

(----------)

Her afternoon.

At the training ground.

Dylan stood up while holding the pocket watch he was carrying. The goal is to see how long the amount of time is missed.

"4 hours,.... It has been that long since I did a sparing battle with the Knights!?..... And as expected?.... My stamina also increased!?..... Well, now...... "

Dylan put the clock back into his pocket and turned his gaze around, as soon as the expression became very complicated.

"...... I think I should apologize to all of them.... ".

What Dylan saw was the Knights who had been training with him, lying limp on the ground.

Not because they were hurt or battered.

But, the reason was because of the fatigue they felt as a result of those who had sparring battles with Dylan.

The training, was that the Knights attacked Dylan and he just dodged without counterattacking.

"Haa..... You all go home just rest today..... I'll tell Dad.....".

".... B-b-well.... T-t-lord..... K-k-we.... I-i-permit.... U-u-backward.... D-d-self.... L-l-more..... D-earlier..... ".

With Sebastian staggering and the Knights immediately standing and walking away there was even a Knight who had to be carried by another Knight.

"Good job, Mr. Dylan".

"..... Why, are you here, Sonia?".

Surprisingly Sonia Dylan's personal servant just suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

"Isn't it clear!? I'm getting a personal servant, Mr. Dylan".

".......Then do your job well".

Ignoring Sonia, Dylan walked away from the training ground with Sonia following behind him.

(Well, it's time to take a break and go, learn magic with Mom).

After the afternoon break, Dylan immediately went to see his mother to study magic.

At first, Dylan was surprised that he was the only one studying today.

He always studied magic with Filaret. When asked his mother said

"Filaret was studying magic alone in her room".

Getting that answer Dylan continued his magic studies.

Well, the reason Dylan learned magic was, because he managed to defeat Fafnir. Dylan who originally could not use Attribute Magic.

He was suddenly able to use it and Dylan knew the reason because Fafnir's soul and power had already become one with him, so now he could use Attribute Magic just like Fafnir.

Dylan continued doing the same activity for almost 2 months.

And not to pass it a day.

Now after 2 months of training.

Eventually Dylan got used to it and was able to control his strength as a Half-Dragon.

However, until this second Dylan had not been fully able to control or even control his Limitless skill.

Every time he tried, it would end up failing and if successful Dylan could only use it for 2 minutes.

(----------)

The night he had been waiting for had come.

For Dylan it was a very tough night for him.

Since he knew based on the scenario in his game, tomorrow morning was the day that the event before the game started called "Panic Monster Incident" would occur.

The screen tells the story of the destruction of the Arcadia region due to the impromptu infasion of the monsters and resulting in the death of his Father and Mother.

Only Dylan and Filaret survived.

That incident, made Dylan have a grudge against the Kingdom for not trying to conduct an investigation into the incident.

Now for not wanting to end up with the same in his game scenario.

After dinner and returning to the room, Dylan quietly went to sneak out of the Mansion wearing a black hooded robe and carrying a lantern inside which contained new light magic.

Arriving at the forest, Dylan slowly walked over and continued to observe the surroundings.

"...... From information from Sebas-san..... The activity of monsters had indeed diminished these few days..... There were also no reports of villages being attacked...... As in the game scenario..... Now,...... I have to.....".

Unable to finish his sentence, Dylan suddenly sensed that there was someone other than himself in the forest staring at him from behind.

Reflek immediately turned his head back and almost pulled his Katana sword, preparing to fight.

After looking around, it turned out that there was no one at all. Dylan canceled his intention and walked away back to the Mansion disappearing in the darkness.

From the back was a pale yellow-haired handsome man, with purple-colored eyes wearing a pure white robed armor suit and carrying a sword that he hung on his left waist.

"Hmmm.... Though I have hidden my existence as thin as possible.... But, he still realized it.... Interesting person!?..... Well, now...... Let's take a look. Can you really cheer me up tomorrow".

I don't know who the mystery man really is.

However, she obviously hoped Dylan would be able to cheer her up.
