A Destained Young Master Villain

On a small city called Iova, located on the small territory of a baron.

A Tiered 2 beast was currently going on a rampage in this area. A Tiered 2 beast was a calamity for small cities like this.

Human corpses were scattered around, and blood flowed throughout the streets like a river. Many people could be seen trying to escape from the area, which looked like a horror scene from a movie.

Mages and Swordsmans were currently fighting, trying to repel the beast. But to no avail, they were unable to do serious damage. They were even unable to leave a scratch on its body.

Tiered two beast defenses have already reached a level where only Magisters could do damage to it.

The people who were in battle directly got slaughtered one by one.

There is a girl who was watching the scene from the sidline. Her eyes were red from crying, and next to her was her mother, whom his father had remarried.

His father was also among the people who were slaughtered. This girl watched the whole thing in horror.

Upon the demise of her father, she uttered the anguished cry of "Daddd!" which then attracted the beast's attention. Her stepmother was terrified and ran away, leaving her behind. The girl who saw this was dumbfounded and said, "Mo-Mother why?"

After her biological mother passed away due to an illness. She had become a bit dull and not as cheerful as before. Seeing this, his dad thought that maybe marrying someone else would fix this. He had married someone he had met in a bar where he was drowning his sorrows away with alcohol.

One thing led to another, and they ended up together. She was against it at first, but this woman was good to her. So she thought that it was not bad for her dad to marry again. But now, seeing her dad dying and her mother running away, she just felt her entire world had collapsed.

Every child deserves a mother, but not all mothers deserve a child. She finally understood this saying she had heard before.

The formidable beast approached her, while she remained steadfast in her stance. The girl thought that there was no longer a point in living, so she just wanted to die and end her misery.

Just as the beast was about to attack, a boy appeared in front of her, saying, "What are you doing?! Let's go!" Seeing the girl just standing still, the boy directly grabbed her wrist and escaped the area.

This boy is none other than Edward!

If Zen were here watching, he would laugh so hard seeing the hero saving a beauty in distress playing in front of him.

In fact, Zen knew that this would happen soon after he obtained the Velart family treasure. He knew that the next plot would come next. He wanted to monitor Edward and block his path at first. But he chose to let Edward go for now. The reason is that he did not want to progress the story faster.

Although he let Edward be, Zen did plan to go to the Outlander continent to meet the Witch Emperator of Flames. This girl, whose name is Eliza, was supposed to be her next heir. He could use this instead of interfering with Edward, which would not affect the plot much.

Back to Eliza and Edward.

They were both currently running away. Edward spoke, "You! Why were you just standing there in a daze." However, the girl remained silent, unmoved, with empty eyes.

Seeing this, Edward speculated that her parents might have been killed during the chaos. So he just switched his attention to escaping with the girl and no longer uttered a single word.

He then went to find Crystal while the beast was on his back, chasing him. Edward went to the place where they were currently staying. He then saw Crystal, who was standing next to a pole, waiting for him.

He screamed, telling her, "RUN!" Crystal was confused by his words and why he was frantically running. She also wanted to know who the girl was next to him.

The next moment, she looked back and saw a big white beast with two big bone like horns in its face.

Seeing this, she finally understood the situation and followed Edward, running away with them. They then went to the docking area where they had docked their ship. They hastily boarded the ship and flew away from the city.

After escaping the city, many hunters from the Guild Hunters Association have also arrived to combat the beast.

Such a coincidence! His protagonist halo gave Edward a chance to act as a hero, saving a beauty. Then the Guild Hunters Association arrived after the scene played out?! Such a thing can no longer be called a coincidence.

An army of hunters quickly got into formation and got ready to fight. They were able to combat and kill the beast quickly as they had a Magister rank mage with them.

On a ship where Edward, Eliza, and Crystal were. Crystal asked who the girl was that was spacing out as if she were dead. Edward replied, "Ah, this girl? I saw her standing in a daze in front of that beast. I saved her and took her with me. Her parents were probably killed."

Crystal then said, "Ah ok, let's just leave her in a nearby city then."

Upon hearing this, Edward displayed a disapproving expression and uttered, "What do you mean leave her? Look at her! How is she going to survive? We need to help her!"

Crystal was still mad about their family treasure being taken away by someone else. Upon listening to Edward's remarks, it further exacerbated her rage.

She then told Edward, "What?! Are you kidding me? We are already occupied enough, and you are saying we are going to be bringing useless baggage with us?"

"Brother, this world is just like this. I mean, look at us, our parents and family have been destroyed by an organization we don't even know of. We suffered from a more tragic incident than she has. I'm sure she would be able to handle herself."

Edward said "No! She also needs our help. She looks to be all alone now!"

Crystal and Edward continued to argue. Eliza heard their arguments and suddenly spoke up, "Thank you for saving me and trying to help me. You can just drop me off in a nearby city. I can handle myself." She felt happy that Edward was trying to help her, but she remembered her mother's betrayal.

Hearing this, Edward continued to say that she should stay and that he would help her.

Crystal was stunned and took a seat in anger. Both young ladies were compelled to concur with his argument. Edward was determined to persist with the issue.
