I Became A Villain In A Novel
Lima

We arrived at a small village close to the border, many people passed by, although there were many monsters but the monsters could not be as easy as messing up the village.

It was because of the protection magic from the empire, once every six months the magicians would refine protection magic in every area.

The people looked at us with pride, probably because we were tasked with eradicating the monsters.

Monsters are getting more and more due to their growing numbers due to over-rapid reproduction.

Unknown to the cause, there is an assumption that dark mages practice forbidden magic that accelerates the growth rate of monsters.

"We will arrive at Anetos' inn, not far away." The knight's sweat.

We all arrived at a simple, comfortable-looking inn, the size of which could accommodate a hundred people at a time.

Each room contained two people, of course I was with a prasina, Cecilia seemed to want to take me to the room but I dodged and dragged the prasina.

"You hate that genius student?" Tanya sina looked at me with her head tilted.

"No, it's just I'm not comfortable." Reply with a smile.

"You've always been friendly to others, but your uncomfortable attitude really seems obvious, I guess you have some kind of hatred."

"No, forget it let's rest."

We didn't chat anymore and decided to take a break, really a tiring day.

This is called proposo village, a village on the edge of the border, very peaceful and soothing.

After we rested, I took Prasina, Elios, Arthur and Luther for a walk around the market.

Buy items that are in good taste for the expedition this time.

As usual I buy spices because usually eat the food without spices is really unpleasant and tasteless.

We also buy bread and food that expired long enough.

"What shop is that? Looks lonely." Luther pointed towards the dilapidated shop that looked worn out.

"Let's go." Arthur and Prasina said enthusiastically, even though the store was quite creepy like a haunted house in the night market.

We all agreed and went there, the sound of the door crackling and the dust flying immediately made us all cough.

"What is this place? Is there no one?" Ask Elios.

We all shook our heads and went deeper, many worn books, magic stones that had already lost their power and other strange items.

"Kilihih."

Damn the sound is very similar to the ghost movie I watched in my old life.

"Interesting, welcome brave young people." Said.

I saw a woman who looked like a sadako, pale-faced with black eyeballs wearing a purple veil with a grin on her lips.

"Excuse me, what place is this?" I ask carefully.

"It's a place for divination, and I'm a seer hihihi." He said with the end of a laugh that makes goosebumps.

"Ah we'll just go, sorry for interrupting and thank you." Elios invites us to go, and I do not fight.

"Heh so innocent, once come do not expect to go hihihi."

It's scary, I saw his tongue lengthen, his lips so torn exactly like the Japanese ghost of Kuchisake onna!

"Iwhh what is that?" Screaming prasina fear.

Everyone became wary, really the Japanese ghost of Kuchisake onna, whereas earlier he was similar to sadako!

"He's like Kuchisake onna!" My word.

"Huh? You know me?" Kuchisake onna asked puzzledly looking at me with blood dripping from her torn mouth.

"It's weird, even though I'm not recognized here. Who're you?" Ask sharply.

He carried the scissors while laughing and smiling with a wide, terrifying smile!

"Hey, what's he gonna do?" Luther asked with a pale face.

Kuchisake onna flew towards the trembling prasina, probably because prasina had only first seen such a creature she was terrified.

Kuchisake onna laughed as she held the scissors intending to tear the lips of the prasina with vigor.

I ran and kicked him to the wall, I saw his head hit until it bled.

"Damn man, I'll kill you and rip your lips off!" He said with anger.

There was a wind out of nowhere blowing hard, fortunately Luther was a defender he protected us with his magic shield.

"The wind energy signal is too dense because it is mixed with darkness." Luther cursed while holding his shield.

"We have to think of a way to escape, or kill him." I looked seriously at my friends, and Luther could no longer hold back the dark energy and the wind.

"Kill him with your sword, treat Luther first so that the mana is replenished, then me, Arthur and Sina will outwit Kuchisake onna and activate the spell of protection taught by the professor sarache last time." Elios explained.

We nodded, I treated and filled in where Luther was using the potion I brought.

The protection spell is activated, although its effectiveness is enough to survive the dark energy can only be done quickly.

Elios, Arthur and Prasina attacked Kuchisake onna, I approached the back of his head with protection from Luther's shield.

"Man dead! You're all dead!" Kuchisake onna rages, the dark energy is more concentrated and stifling.

"Quick." Shouted Elios, Luther also turned pale.

I drained my mana, and slashed Kuchisake onna's head with a sword.

But not hit, he instead pointed the Scissors at me, I dodged and my back hit the wall.

"Liona! Are you okay?" Elios asked worriedly, I just gave him a thumbs up.

I really wanted to wake up, but the dark energy was holding me back. My friends coughed up blood because of the dark energy that was so concentrated.

Damnit damnit!

"Hihihi, die!" Kuchisake onna pointed the scissors right at my mouth.

I forced myself to move, and kicked his stomach until the scissors were removed from Kuchisake onna's hand.

The dark energy seemed to waver, I activated the protection spell and took out the scissors quickly.

Running towards the rather limp Kuchisake onna, I stabbed him a spot in his mouth.

He glared at me, then I stabbed him in the heart and used my sword to slash his head.

Blood splattered everywhere reeking of a disgusting carcass, Kuchisake onna turned to dust and disappeared.

Me and my friends fell silent, then sighed softly. I took out the potion and gave it to my friends.

There was nothing else there, it turned out that it was Kuchisake onna disguised as a seer, it just deserved to be very quiet here.

"We've just come home, been outside for a long time."

We went from there, and went back to the inn, because we were sweating we did nothing first and took a shower straight away.

"So it was great but really creepy." Prasina says while drying her hair with a towel.

"You're right." My speech.

"Oh, how did you know it was Kuchisake onna? I've only seen for the first time there's such a creature." Ask Prasina.

"Ah I accidentally read from an ancient book." I lied without blinking.

"really?"

"Sure, let's go to bed tomorrow we'll continue the journey."
