Chapter 110: Chapter 110: Another Unique Skill Holder
"Hey, who are you? Where are you going?"
A hostile young man clad in battle-worn armor, brandished his sword and moved to block their descent.
"Please be quiet!" Bella's voice was icy as she flicked her finger dismissively.
"Ahhh..." The man disintegrated into ashes almost instantly, his body vanishing without a trace.
Aengus watched with a detached demeanor, his Heart of Darkness numbing him to any semblance of pity for human. He just felt it was a waste of resources.
The dead young man's final, anguished scream drew the attention of a few nearby humans.
Another young leader—similiar age to Aengus, stepped forward, his face twisted into a bloodthirsty grin and rage.
His eyes, wild with a mix of aggression and unsettling eagerness, locked onto Bella's smoking figure. His grin widened, and he licked his lips, his gaze becoming overtly lecherous.
Bella felt his lecherous gaze. But maintaining her composure, she suppressed her aura to avoid a panic-stricken retreat of the young man.
Otherwise, the young man would have already been pissed out of fear.
The young leader's lecherous grin widened as he leered at Bella. "A succubus, huh? What's a beauty like you doing here? Planning to seduce me?" His eyes roamed her body with obvious desire.
Bella glanced at Aengus, expecting some reaction to the disrespect. To her slight disappointment, he remained impassive, his expression unchanging.
The leader's eyes narrowed as he continued, "So, you two are a couple?" He looked between them, his grin turning malicious. "Don't worry. We'll take him along too. He can watch us have some fun in the bed as well."
Aengus remained unmoved, his demeanor as cold and unreadable as ever. Bella's disappointment turned into a silent frustration. She had hoped for a show of some kind of reaction, but it seemed Aengus's focus was solely on their objective.
"Enough of this nonsense, human kid," Bella said, her voice cutting through the leader's taunts with icy blade. "We're not here for games. Tell us how many of you had infiltrated the dmeon land, so that we can put you to death first."
"A kid?" He was dumbfounded for a moment, then snarled angrily, "Bitch, how dare you call me a kid? I'm already a father at my age! And, do you think I'm stupid enough to answer all your questions?"
"Hahahaha..."
His companions, clad in armor and wielding swords, burst into boisterous laughter.
Aengus, watching silently, could only pity them, knowing their fate was sealed.
"Yes, you're a kid, human. Want to see a real man?" Bella asked with a mocking smile.
As the young man stood there, confused, she pointed to Aengus. "He's a real man. My Darling."
"Fuck... this bitch!" The group charged at Bella, swords raised, with the young man leading them in a fury.
Bella looked at Aengus with pity as if asking to help her.
Aengus found her request ridiculous.
Regardless, he moved to stop their charge and slapped them hard.
Paah, Paah, Paah!
They all crashed onto the ground hard, hitting their head, and blood flowed thereafter.
"Ouch!"
"Ahhhh..."
They shriked in pain, and horror struck them like nightmare. The half breed Demon and Demoness was not so simple as they initially thought. They instantly panicked, their heart beating fast.
Bella smiled. "Now, tell me—how many humans entered with you all?"
She leaned forward, her eyes glowing pink as she activated her seduction ability.
Instantly, the eyes of all the humans around her turned pink, a clear sign they had fallen under her spell, their tongues hanging out. All except for one.
The young leader remained unaffected, his gaze sharp and defiant.
"Huh?" Bella furrowed her brows in surprise. She hadn't expected a mere human to resist her charm.
"What's going on?"
The young man suddenly burst into maniacal laughter. "Hahaha… Bitch, your demonic charm doesn't work on me. I'm immune to it all. I'm special."
His grin widened as he continued. "Now, let me go, or else you'll regret it. While you were busy charming these fools, I already alerted the others. I'll forget this ever happened if you walk away now." He offered, as if he held the upper hand.
Bella just scoffed at her foolishness, while Aengus felt intrigue. It shouldn't be that easy to resist Bella's charm for a human at least.

"What?"
Aengus was momentarily shaken, a rare crack in his usually composed demeanor.
Bella, noticing, raised an eyebrow and smiled. "What's wrong, sweetheart? You look... startled."
"I-It's nothing," Aengus quickly regained his composure, trying to brush off his reaction.
"Ehehehe... And where do you think you're going?" Bella muttered, her gaze shifting to the sky, where the young man was attempting to escape, his dragon wings unfurled.
In an instant, Bella flew beside him, her speed unmatched. With a casual flick of her wrist, she delivered a light smack.
"Bang!"
"Ahhh!" The young man was slammed into the ground, crashing hard despite activating his physical enhancement skills. His body was wounded, and pain surged through him.
It was a stroke of misfortune to encounter Bella and Aengus—the two monsters. Under different circumstances, he might have been stronger than most, but not against them.
By now, everyone had noticed the confrontation. Both humans and giant orcs halted their battle, sensing a powerful third party had entered the fray.
They took cautious steps backward, avoiding the gaze of the newcomers. It was clear these two were far beyond anything they could handle.
On the other hand, Aengus' mind was in turmoil.
He had encountered someone with the mysterious Unique Skills—the very same kind he possessed.
It was hard to believe.
All this time, he thought he was the only one chosen for such abilities, but now... things seemed entirely different.
And then there was the mystery surrounding himself. Was this reincarnation body also an Otherworlder like them? Could he have come from the same world as them? Or perhaps from some other world entirely?
If that were the case, did it mean there were others—more individuals with Unique Skills like his?
