injured comrade before withdrawing him from the range of the attacker.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No. 5 was a little exhausted after the continuous battle, but he had still managed to severely injure one of the peak Platinum cores.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The others were injured too, but they were still able to fight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shifting his balance onto his right foot, No. 5 quickly repositioned his sword near his neck, as a blade came flashing right through the chaos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Axion had never withdrawn his focus from the Diamond 2, and took every chance to land a decent attack on the enemy, but—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clank!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter what, No. 5 either blocked the attack or dodged it at the last moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No. 5 still wasn’t injured, though he looked tired from the outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Axion, as well as the Platinum cores fighting with him, were the same.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though none of them had used any spells... the battle was taking its toll on their bodies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even after being surrounded, No. 5 was always quick enough to take advantage of any mistakes on their part.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter what, they hadn’t been able to land even a single blow on him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in return, one of the Platinum cores was now out of the battle, while the other two had depleted a significant amount of their mana reserves in order to keep up with No. 5’s speed and the power behind his attacks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Let alone the Platinum cores, even Axion himself was feeling drained from the battle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each of No. 5’s strikes felt like being crushed under a mountain’s weight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Axion couldn’t understand it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though No. 5 was higher than him in rank, it was only by a single tier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still... the power behind No. 5’s strikes was far greater than anything that he had faced from opponents in the initial tiers of the Diamond rank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Axion’s eyes widened, as No. 5 twisted his grip before swinging the sword from below.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such an attack had no way of being blocked, so the only thing Axion could do was jump back to create distance—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Spurt!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Aaarrrghhh!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Midway through his motion, No. 5 switched his target, moving towards the Platinum core on his right before slicing through his chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being already drained, the Platinum core tried to counter, but failed miserably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But things didn’t end there, as a dagger flew from No. 5’s waist, heading straight towards the Platinum core on the left end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Platinum core, although tired, had enough presence of mind to detect the projectile launched in his direction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Quickly moving his sword, just as he was about to intercept the dagger—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No. 5 vanished from his place in an explosive burst of speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Axion, who had just retreated, shouted to warn the Platinum core, but—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Spurt!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thud!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A hand, with a sword in its grip, dropped down onto the floor below.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Platinum core looked shocked for a second before the pain hit him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as he was about to let out a groan, No. 5’s sword came flashing, aiming to decapitate him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not being in a state to dodge the attack, the Platinum core just looked at the blade, which felt like it was moving in slow motion, heading for his neck—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clank!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Get back!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Axion, blocking No. 5’s attack, twisted his body to launch a kick at the enemy, only for him to catch it midway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BAM!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Axion felt his world turn upside down, as he was slammed onto the floor below.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The impact left him coughing, but he had no time to waste.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bearing the pain, Axion quickly rolled to the side, only to see No. 5’s sword piercing the area he had previously occupied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not letting the pain dictate his actions, Axion got up before motioning the Platinum cores to stay behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fight had now become easy—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For No. 5, that is.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though the Platinum cores were still alive, they were in no state to be able to help their captain against a Diamond 2.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just surviving was proof enough of their capabilities as soldiers serving under House Dracoth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Axion only hoped for more reinforcements to arrive, but deep inside he knew that no help—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both No. 5 and Axion had their eyes widened, as they sensed several presences approaching the guild’s building.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Neither of them moved, as the possibility of reinforcements crossed their minds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Axion was puzzled, as he knew that the house had sent them only after learning that someone carrying royal blood was trapped at the guild’s branch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If not for that, no one would have been sent here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sending a Diamond core was a luxury that the victim had received.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So why would the Dracoths now send more reinforcements, and that too for a distant descendant of the royal bloodline—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Axion’s pupils dilated as reality hit him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking ahead, though he couldn’t see No. 5’s face, he could feel the bastard smirking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No. 5 was pleased with the unexpected development.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No intimation had been given to him, and now, he could sense several Platinum cores moving in the direction of the guild’s building.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though he didn’t know the identity of the reinforcements, just sensing their attire was enough to let him know that they were members of D.X.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You won’t get away with this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Axion, knowing what awaited him, spoke with immense rage and a hint of regret in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t fear for his death, but for the lives of the soldiers who had been sent under his command.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Axion had failed to protect them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gritting his teeth, Axion tightened his grip on his sword, ready to fight until his last breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Woah! How did I miss such delicacies?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several men in black stepped through the entrance, walking in the direction of No. 5, while at the same time observing the chaos around them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire hall had gone silent upon seeing the newcomers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Well, the soldiers under House Dracoth were the ones who stood frozen, while the members of D.X. simply smiled in anticipation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Vampire?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Axion’s confused voice made No. 120 look in his direction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Well, well... who do we have here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A Dracoth dog.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No. 121 commented from the side.\u003C\u002Fp>",1037,"2026-05-30T14:45:47.278Z","2026-06-01T04:31:30.507Z",1,"novelbin.me","931cab175a1d0e71c7041a610ab1b7b21528fa70d769801bcb63bfc32dd91345","the-villain-reborn-as-game-s-final-boss-chapter-245","the-villain-reborn-as-game-s-final-boss-chapter-243",257,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-villain-reborn-as-game-s-final-boss-cover.jpg"]
