DOOMED TO BE A VILLAIN

*SMASHHHHH*

Davies smashed the huge ice hammer on the ice armadillo, causing cracks on its back and allowing Davies's icy mana to seep through. Davies's icy mana ran through the ice armadillo and began to freeze its insides,

"Ice explosion" Davies used his skill to explode the ice that had formed inside the armadillo, thus killing the ice armadillo.

"How did you do that?" Tisha, who had appeared behind him out of nowhere, asked, intrigued.

Davies wasn't surprised when he heard her voice as he had already sensed her coming in his direction a while ago, but he was surprised that she didn't know what mana zone was,

'Shouldn't she be able to use the mana zone already since she could fly… or could it be that she isn't at the mana zone stage yet and her control over her blessing is just that good,' Davies wondered as he looked at her with a stupefied look on his face,

"I'll tell you about it later, for now, focus on the monsters and help out your friends," he finally said as he formed an ice spear and shot it towards an ice wolf that bared its teeth at Davies.

"You promise?" Tisha asked with an innocent look on her face, a complete contrast to the surrounding of the forest.

[Oh my God… sooo cuute… ah she's glowing cuteness…]

[Ahhh… my eyes, so bright] Miya ranted inside Davies's eyes about Tisha's bright and innocent look.

'Shut up, you chatterbox!' Davies screamed at her internally.

"I promise, now leave me alone," Davies replied to Tisha after Miya had quietened down.

"Yayy!" Tisha pumped her fist in the air and then started to hop and skip back toward the rest of the B-Squad.

"Don't forget!" she turned back towards Davies and shouted before continuing her hopping and skipping, not bothering to increase her pace as she continued towards her group.

'Who trapped a kid's mind and put it in that kind of body,' Davies thought to himself as he watched Tisha continue her hopping and skipping, but still kept an eye on his surroundings.

[I don't know who did… but he did a banging job of it] Miya answered.

"Whatever," Davies replied as well, and he created another batch of ice spears that he began to shoot toward the monsters that kept flooding into this place.

'Hey, Miya…'

'Is it still there?' Davies asked Miya about something that he had asked her to keep an eye on.

[Yeah, it's still there, just observing the battle, as well as you guys] Miya affirmed.

What Davies and Miya were talking about was a very suspicious acting monster, namely a frigid penguin; a penguin monster that lived only in very cold places and just like its normal counterparts, they couldn't fly, but unlike their more normal counterparts, they had extremely sharp teeth, hidden inside their beak.

This particular frigid penguin had gotten here along with the first wave of monsters, but it had only been observing the battle while staying hidden, yet even though the other monsters were being killed continuously, its penguin brethren included, it did not make any moves to join the fight. That wasn't normal behavior for monsters below A-rank who only acted on instincts, not to mention the frigid penguin that was only a D-rank monster, so Davies had told Miya to keep a watch on the penguin while he continued fighting with other monsters.

[I thought you said there would only be B-rank monsters in the gate?] Miya asked confused as Davies killed a C-rank monster with a spear of ice and exploded the ice spear after it stabbed through the monster.

'Are you really that dumb?' Davies asked her as he dodged an attack from an ice spike-tongue chameleon, then cut the tongue of the chameleon before sending an ice spike into its head.

'There obviously cannot only be B-rank monsters in a B-rank gate, otherwise, what would happen to the ecosystem inside the gate if all the monsters were strong enough to kill each other,' he explained to her as he jumped over two ice wolves that had come rushing towards him and while he was still mid-air, he formed another two ice spears that he sent into their bodies from above.

[...oh…]

[... then why did you tell those kids that they had to kill ten thousand B-rank monsters… oh] she was going to ask, but then realized that Davies said it either to scare them or rile them up… or both.

[It's shocking how they've not realized it yet] she wondered.

'Or they already did, but it doesn't matter at this point because this number of monsters is enough to overwhelm them, even if the monsters were only D-rank,' Davies stated.

[Uhm… Davies…] Miya called.

'What is it this time?' he asked.

[The frigid penguin is leaving]

'… shit… I need to follow it,' Davies thought but as he looked around at the monsters that were still attacking, it was very clear that if he left to follow the penguin, the B-Squad's bones wouldn't even be salvageable by the time he came back.

Davies began to run toward the B-Squad while killing the monsters in his way.

'Create a barrier around yourself and your teammates!' Davies told Tisha as soon as he arrived near them.

"Uh, why?" Jack who had been cutting through a snow lizard, asked.

"Just do it!" Davies repeated to Tisha, ignoring Jack's question.

"Okayyy," Tisha replied in a sing-song voice and put her blessing to work, creating a huge barrier that surrounded and protected the B-Squad.

"Mana zone…" Davies muttered activating the ability once again on the snowy battlefield.

"Frigid ice…" He slammed his palm into the floor and created a wave of his mana that he sent around the battlefield in every direction with him as the center. His mana rushed around the icy forest, freezing everything it touched into ice statues.

After his icy mana had stopped freezing monsters, Davies stood back up and turned towards the B-Squad,

"Don't die before I get back…" he told them and began to run in the direction of the frigid penguin.

"Ice Explosion…"

*BOOOOOOOM*

All the monster ice sculptures created by Davies's icy mana exploded at the same time as he used his skill.

Gate mission

No of monsters killed: 1986

All the members of the B-Squad gulped as they looked at the destruction caused by Davies's skill and then at his disappearing back as he ran into the forest after the frigid penguin.
