Her temporarily violet eyes shimmered with a hint of crimson as Evelina’s influence took hold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And she absolutely let it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Right. Family massacre, obviously.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Light Manipulation]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A thin white streak of light cleaved through the room in under a second. A heartbeat later, everyone’s heads exploded into a geyser of blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Well, almost everyone—if it weren’t for Yngvield interfering at the last second, some wouldn’t have survived the first attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Earth Manipulation]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thin strands of rock wrapped around the necks of those who survived, blocking the very strand of light that had decapitated the rest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You cur.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yngvield barked, grabbing his coat and throwing it off. There was no reason to hold back anymore—not when his opponent clearly didn’t care.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Gaia]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yngvield took a step forward. The earth rose in jagged spikes, racing toward Fiona at dangerous speeds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn’t worry. Not even a little. She didn’t bother casting a single defensive spell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nice try, old man!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fiona giggled and sprinted toward the oncoming valley of spikes, weaving between them like a gymnast using poles instead of dodging life‑threatening rocks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But you gotta do better than that!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Dark Manipulation]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tendrils erupted beneath Yngvield’s feet, forcing him to look down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Earth Manipulation]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He shattered the tendrils that trapped him, but the moment he looked up, Fiona was already in front of him, both feet aimed right at his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BANG!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fiona dropkicked Yngvield hard. His entire body flew backward and crashed into the stairs with a sickening crunch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While he was still incapacitated, the other Whitestrakes were left wide open.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BANG!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>FWOOSH!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BANG!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A volley of gunfire and spells erupted, all aimed to overwhelm her. But, just like with the valley of spikes, she weaved through them as if they were nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She smiled creepily the whole time, slipping past lethal attack after lethal attack without the slightest hint of worry on her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Dark Manipulation]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She swung her hand in a haphazard left hook, a dark tendril following the motion as more Whitestrakes were decapitated in the blink of an eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some managed to dodge, but that didn’t matter to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>FWISH!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She swung her hand again, finishing off the rest. But, like cockroaches, some still managed to survive the second blow using defensive spells.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"F-Fiona, stop this!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Penny Whitestrake shouted from behind two others who were shielding her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sorry, Mom, but... I’ve gone way too far into the deep end to go back now!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She laughed, coating her hands in magic as she prepared to use both light and dark at the same time. But before she could deliver her devastating blow...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The earth behind her erupted, and from below emerged Yngvield, his form battered and bloody yet still fighting. He wasn’t a veteran for nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He grabbed Fiona in a chokehold, coating his entire body in earth as he tried to force her to submit. But Fiona had other plans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Get off me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She yelled, slipping out of the chokehold as she twisted her body and drove a quick blow into his groin, using her magically coated legs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BANG!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her foot shattered the earthen defenses Yngvield had prepared. The rest of his protective armor crumbled off his body as the pain made him lose focus on his spell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Was that it!?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fiona laughed, moving in to finish him—but a bullet whizzed past, almost grazing her head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She whirled toward the shooter, snapped her fingers once, and cleaved the man in half.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she turned back to Yngvield, he had vanished, this time preparing an attack from above.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Burial Coffin]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two huge chunks of rock suddenly encased Fiona, but before the spell could crush her, she simply teleported outside the coffin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Dark Step]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Bleh.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fiona stuck her tongue out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Y-You!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yngvield growled—only to be slammed into the ground as a massive construct of light and dark, shaped like a giant hand, smashed down onto his back. The floor cratered, spiderweb cracks spreading from the impact.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So disappointing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fiona wasn’t just being talkative for fun. It was part of her plan. The best way to kill a proud noble family was to show them how pitiful and weak they were compared to the killer they once used to shame.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yngvield coughed violently as the colossal hand pinned him to the floor, stone grinding against bone. Blood seeped between his teeth as he forced his head upward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You... disgrace...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The words came out strained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fiona tilted her head. \"Oh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stepped forward slowly, hands behind her back like a curious child inspecting a broken toy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Still talking?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The massive hand of light and darkness pressed harder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>CRRRRK.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several ribs gave out at once, but Yngvield didn’t scream. He only glared at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fiona’s grin widened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good. That’s the look I was hoping for.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Around them, the surviving Whitestrakes hesitated—some hurriedly preparing spells, others dragging the wounded away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fiona glanced over her shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, don’t stop on my account.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She snapped her fingers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Light Manipulation]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A beam ripped sideways through the hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>FWSSSH!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Three Whitestrakes lost their torsos instantly. The smell of scorched flesh filled the room, followed by screams.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fiona sighed dramatically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Honestly... is this really the famous Whitestrake family? I expected a little more dignity.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She kicked a severed sword across the floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Enough!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One of the older Whitestrakes slammed his hand down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Earth Manipulation]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hall trembled as jagged stone pillars burst upward beneath Fiona’s feet—but before they could reach her—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Dark Step]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her body blurred. The spikes struck empty air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She reappeared behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Too slow.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man barely widened his eyes before—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>FWISH.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A dark tendril swept across his neck. His head rolled along the marble floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fiona caught it before it stopped, studying the frozen expression for a moment before casually tossing it aside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Next?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gunfire erupted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BANG! BANG! BANG!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bullets tore through the hall. Fiona leaned aside to let one pass her ear, slapped another out of the air with a thin thread of darkness, and allowed a third to graze her arm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blood trickled down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She glanced at it with mild curiosity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her violet-crimson eyes flickered, her smile widening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That actually stung.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shooter barely had time to feel relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fiona vanished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Dark Step]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She appeared directly in front of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Congratulations. You’re the first one today.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her hand grabbed his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>CRUNCH.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She slammed his skull into the wall hard enough to crater stone. His body slid down lifelessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Behind her—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BOOM!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The massive light-dark hand shattered as Yngvield finally forced himself free. Chunks of magic scattered like broken glass.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He rose slowly, breathing heavily, blood soaking his shirt—but his eyes were sharper now. Calmer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fiona turned back toward him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She clapped once. \"Still alive?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Enough games,\" Yngvield growled.\u003C\u002Fp>",1130,"2026-06-03T05:52:53.768Z",1,"novelbin.me","c8f48b8cf471bce6d6d84351089fe8126c7a7b94b0cf78cf6a6e885b1c63fe34","i-m-in-love-with-the-villainess-chapter-162","i-m-in-love-with-the-villainess-chapter-160",324,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-m-in-love-with-the-villainess-cover.jpg"]
