I, the Villain, Want to Save Myself, But the Yandere Heroines Disagree-Chapter 99 - Trump Card

And Mudrick’s attack left his back exposed to Lion. Lion, being a ruthless warrior, naturally didn’t miss this opportunity. She slashed at Mudrick’s back with her sword.

The strike tore through Mudrick’s clothes, leaving a deep gash on his back that exposed the bone.

After the strike, Lion actually looked slightly dissatisfied.

Because her aim had been slightly off. If it had been more centered, hitting Mudrick’s spine, he might have lost his ability to fight entirely.

Even so, the blow severely weakened Mudrick. Groaning in pain, he rolled forward, creating distance from Lion, then turned back to glare at her.

He was heavily injured. Escaping from Lion now seemed like an impossible dream.

At that moment, Litte spoke. “Captain Mudrick, if you hand over the items now, I can still spare your life.”

“Heh...” Mudrick chuckled, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

“You think you’ve won?”

Saying this, he touched his storage ring.

“You went through all this trouble just for what’s inside here?”

Subsequently, a faint light flickered, and Mudrick took out a potion bottle, then drank its contents.

Seeing this, Lion’s pupils constricted. She immediately charged forward, preparing to finish Mudrick off.

But even though Lion reacted quickly, Mudrick still managed to drink the potion.

Then, Lion’s sword pierced Mudrick’s heart.

Mudrick staggered backward and fell to the ground, Lion’s longsword still embedded in his chest.

Just as Lion breathed a sigh of relief, she suddenly heard a faint chuckle.

“Heh...”

Mudrick smiled and stood up.

His pierced heart seemed unaffected, continuing to supply blood to his body.

Then, before everyone’s eyes, Mudrick’s body visibly began to swell.

Within seconds, a humanoid monster nearly three meters tall, covered in dark purple muscles, appeared before them. At this point, it bore little resemblance to the original Mudrick.

“Demon...” Lion murmured, uttering the word.

The demonized Mudrick merely smiled, pulled the longsword from his chest, ignored the dark red blood flowing freely from the wound, and grinned menacingly at them.

“Hehe, looks like you’re quite perceptive,” Mudrick said, his aura instantly surging, approaching the level of Tier 8.

Of course, he hadn’t actually reached Tier 8.

But even so, the current Mudrick, empowered by the immense physical enhancements of his demonization, no longer feared Lion.

Lion frowned.

She had opted for a quick battle earlier, consuming a significant amount of stamina. Especially with the final blow, thinking Mudrick was dead, she hadn’t held back any reserves. She hadn’t expected Mudrick to fully recover and become even stronger.

“Do you know the Empire’s stance on demons?” Lion asked, watching Mudrick warily.

“Of course, I know. As soon as a demon appears, the Empire’s experts will swiftly mobilize to eliminate it.”

“But thanks to this excellent location you chose, no one will notice me now. Even if I ultimately cannot escape death, I can still drag you all down to hell with me.” After Mudrick finished speaking, he charged towards Lion.

It was this woman who had initially prevented him from teaching Litte a lesson, and today she had nearly killed him, forcing him to use his final trump card.

Lion’s sword was now in Mudrick’s hand. Unarmed, Lion could only adopt Mudrick’s earlier tactic, retreating into the forest, using trees as cover.

But just then, Mudrick simply punched through the tree Lion was using as cover. The splintered wood, along with Lion’s body, flew backward, crashing through several more trees before stopping.

The tremendous noise produced here was also heard by Orson at this moment.

Orson frowned, then decided to knock out the assassin before him first. He then grabbed the assassin and rushed towards the source of the sound.

At this time, Mudrick was slowly walking towards where Lion lay.

Virgil tried to intercept Mudrick on the way, but Mudrick simply sent him flying with a single punch.

This time, Virgil broke a tree upon impact, clutched his chest, and collapsed, unable to get back up.

“You bitch, acting all high and mighty earlier, wanting to teach me a lesson, wanting to kill me, huh?”

Mudrick said this as he walked up to the pile of wood, looking down at Lion trapped beneath several logs.

At this moment, although Lion was still conscious, her body was pinned under the trees, rendering her unable to move properly.

Mudrick watched all this with amusement.

“Didn’t expect this, did you, miss? The tables have turned instantly. Now, you’re the one being hunted.”

Then, a voice sounded from behind Mudrick.

“Stop!” Litte stood before Mudrick.

“This incident is between you and me. There’s no need to involve her.”

“Huh?” Mudrick chuckled. “Young Master Litte, she was trying to kill me just now? And you want me to let her off?”

“Fine.” He said this, looking at Litte, a fierce glint in his eyes.

“Since you’re so eager to die, let me send you on your way.”

Subsequently, he threw a punch towards Litte.
