Your Not So Ordinary Villain

He was grinning throughout the fight and when the werewolf couldn't regenerate anymore. And at the last minute, Cygnus pierced through its chest and removed its heart before crushing it and throwing it to the side.

He looked at his clothes and shook his head. "They will surely freak out when they see me in this state."

He walked away from the site while dragging the servant away. He finally reached the start of the trail and saw their horses. Since the servant was still unconscious, he was forced to place him on the other horse and guide it instead.

Rain started to fall from the already dark sky so he hastened a little bit. They reached the manor all wet and muddy but the butler was already there to meet them. Even Ulysses and Galahad waited.

Cygnus was quite surprised to see those two. The servants carried the person with him while he gave the two dukes a grin. Both of them had a frown while looking at his messy state.

"You are dirty, what have you been up to?" Ulysses had his arms crossed on his chest while giving the master a glare.

"We were out horseback riding. And we encountered something unusual. Hence the bloody and muddy get up." He gestured at his clothes nonchalantly with a grin on his face.

"What did you encounter?" Galahad queried.

"Oh just a fierce werewolf," Cygnus shrugged. "It was not even a match for me."

Galahad tightly closed his eyes and took some deep breaths before he was able to gather his thoughts. "Where did you encounter it?"

"Hmm..at the mining site near the lake north of the estate. We stumbled on it feasting on I guess humans who went there to try their luck," Cygnus casually answered.

There was silence after he answered his question. He looked at the two dukes and the servants who were all looking at him, like he had gone crazy. He didn't know if he did something wrong so he looked at his butler for an answer.

Galahad was speechless and was at a loss on how he should react to the information he got, especially at how casual the young man's answer was. He looked at Ulysses only to see him take a deep breath. He guessed that Rigel was usually like this and that he shouldn't be surprised.

The duke of Blackwell looked behind him at his secretary and motioned for him to come closer. He then instructed the man to call one of his captains. The secretary immediately left to do the duke's bidding.

"For now, go inside and wash up. You might get sick if you remain on those wet clothes much longer," Ulysses sighed and gestured for his son to follow.

Cygnus remained silent as he walked behind the dukes until they were in front of his room. He bid them a temporary goodbye and entered his room. He took a long bath before he came out for dinner but he did not see his father nor Duke Blackwell.

"They've gone to the location you mentioned. It might take them longer to get back because of the rain." The butler informed him after their dinner.

"How about that servant, how is he?" Cygnus asked as they walked the dimly lit halls of the manor.

"He's at the manor's clinic right now. He has not suffered any injuries but he remains unconscious," the butler explained.

He had gone to the clinic while the master was taking a bath to assess the situation but he was stumped because he couldn't tell what was wrong with him. It was a bit difficult to assess the man's condition because his sensors were getting blocked. After much thought, he came to the conclusion that the man was possessed.

"The evil spirit must have taken a liking to his body, should I go and visit him?" Cygnus stopped walking as he thought of what he should do. "Let's go."

They went ahead to the clinic and found that there were no people in there. It was concerning especially for normal human beings. A clinic should always have doctors or nurses around just in case an emergency might occur but they were nit present. The air inside the room was also stagnant and reeked of something foul.

"Ah, the evil spirit must have gotten stronger after it came to this place. It must have been attracted to my scent when I got to the mining site." He looked around at the beds and found that no one was in any of those.

They then heard a growl coming from one of the closed rooms inside the clinic. It was not the same as the werewolf's but a growl that came from a human. He gestured for his butler to go and have a look while he sat on one of the beds to see what's going on. Mr. C walked towards the door where a suspiciously slimy black liquid was coming out.

He opened the door without flinching and even after seeing the brutal scene inside, he remained unfazed. "That servant must have killed all the medical personnel in here."

Inside that room were the bodies of the nurses and doctors that were supposed to be working in the clinic. The room was also filled with blood mixed with the slimy substance on the floor. Even the walls had blood splatters on them. What's more gruesome was the state of the bodies, the corpses were beyond recognition and there were several body parts scattered on the floor.

Mr. C stepped inside as he didn't even mind the blood that had started to soak his shoes and the ends of his pants. He inspected the room to see if the possessed servant was still in the room. He heard a growl again and a munching sound from behind the stacks of body.

The butler walked towards the direction and saw that it was indeed the possessed servant. In his hand was a woman's body and there was blood on his mouth, proof that he had been feasting on the personnel of the clinic. The moment the butler stood there, the possessed servant stopped his actions and stared at the intruder.

"What should I do now, master?" The butler asked after he made eye to eye contact with the evil spirit.

"Can you deal with it?" Cygnus questioned instead of answering him.

"Yes, but I am not sure if I can deal with the evil spirit since I am not an exorcist." The butler had confidence that he could kill the spirit's host but once the host died, the spirit might find another body to possess.

"That won't be a problem. Let the spirit go," Cygnus lifted his feet and placed them on the bed as he leaned on the head board.

The butler's body started to glow and turned black. The blue lines that appeared on his skin were especially bright in the darkness of the room. The possessed man threw the body it was holding as it stood up.

The blood and black liquid dripped from his body as the both stared at each other. The only sound that could be heard from the room was the sound of dripping and the growls from the man. They stood there for a few more seconds before the possessed man finally made the first move.

It dashed forward and created a wave on the pool of blood on the ground. Its hands had already transformed into claws and his whole body was emitting a dark aura that sizzled as it made contact with the butler's skin. Mr. C blocked the claws then he raised his feet and kicked the enemy back.

The possessed servant stumbled back but that did not stop it from attacking. It launched itself again and tried to claw his way towards the butler but Mr. C still managed to block its attack and pushed it away. The butler took this chance and used his speed to shorten the distance between them. He then clenched his fists and punched the possessed man on its stomach.
