In My Favorite Novel As The Final Villain

"Hmm," Theos hummed quietly.

Camilla at his side just stared at the seemingly bottomless hole. Her beautiful emerald eyes showed a hint of concern.

"Hey, he took too long, do you think he'll be okay," she asked.

Theos shrugged nonchalantly. "She's fine, at least, she hasn't suffered serious damage."

Hearing Theos' words, Camila frowned. "Why are you so calm, isn't she your girlfriend?" she asked.

Theos didn't even look at her. He just stared at the bottomless hole before replying casually, "Yes, I worried a lot about her, more than you can imagine. However, I know very well that she's fine, at least, without many injuries."

"And how do you know she's fine? How do you know she's not brutally injured now?" asked Camilla again.

Theos frowned. 'This girl is truly being annoying...', he thought in frustration.

Still, he relaxed. After all, she's only worried about Luna, his beloved.

So he chose to answer, "How do I know, simple, I trust her intelligence and strength to at least be able to escape from there. Besides, the Mana I gave her has a close connection with me to being a unique Mana, I know when the Mana is destroyed, dispersed into particles and more things."

Theos' explanation caused an expression of disbelief from Camilla, who couldn't believe her ears.

But she could only shake her head. 'How rare is it to see someone with Unique Mana? I've only met two people with Unique Mana in my entire life...', she thought.

Camila didn't have to think too hard to realize that the explanation Theos gave made it clear that he knew Luna's every move.

She relaxed her expression.

Instead... 'How much longer will it take,' Theos wondered inwardly in anguish.

Outwardly, he showed himself to control his emotions serenely, but inwardly, he was anxious and infinitely worried.

He told himself that if he didn't see Luna come out of there in five minutes, he was going to jump into the bottomless pit to look for her.

They are there, waiting dozens of meters away from the bottomless pit, in a place safe enough to receive the impacts of the shock waves.

And there they stay for five minutes, each with different thoughts.

Seeing that the five minutes were up, under Camila's surprised eyes, Theos took a step forward, approaching the large hole.

"What are you doing?" asked Camila.

Theos didn't answer, he simply approached the big hole. According to him, Camila can survive alone for a few minutes as she is Grand Master rank.

'Let's do this,' he said to himself.

Activating his Path, Celestial Corrupted, the dark particles came out of Theos' body to again integrate with it, but this time on the surface, covering the whole body.

As usual, it looked like a kind of armor that covered almost the entire body, even creating a pair of two-meter-high wings.

Theos' black eye became darker, like the ink itself.

Flexing his legs slightly, he was about to pull out when his senses picked up a sound... Like the wind itself cutting through.

"Eh?", looking down, he realized that, despite everything being darkness, there was an anomaly....

A small piece of that darkness was moving uncontrollably, creating an eerie scene.

Theos didn't move an inch; why couldn't it be an enemy attack? It could be... But he's sure it wasn't.

He felt his very Mana returning to him, felt it closer and closer... He realized.

"Luna...", he murmured with a relieved and happy smile on his face.

Straightening his posture, slowly but surely, he watched as a beautiful woman covered by the same shadows stepped out of the large hole.

There was no longer any doubt what she was.

*Swosh*

Luna's speed was such that it cut through the air. Fortunately, her shadow aura did not let the air cut her face.

Leaping out of the gap, she flew and landed softly on the ground, right in front of Theos.

The two stared at each other with a smile, expressing more than any words.

"It's good to see you," Theos broke the pleasant silence.

Luna smiled happily, moving closer to Theos, she gave him a tender hug. "I am more than glad to see you," she declared.

Theos chuckled. Looking at the armor covering Luna's body, he eyed it curiously. "And that armor, is that the item you were looking for?" he asked.

Luna nodded happily. "Yes! It's that very one. I had a hard time getting it, but here it is."

Luna's happy voice made Theos' smile unconsciously widen. But the next moment, his expression froze.

"Luna... Do you have an injury?" he asked with a frown.

Luna's expression became a little nervous, but she nodded shyly. "Yes, actually, that's what I wanted to talk to you about... But better another time," she commented; out of the corner of her eye, she glanced at Camilla not far from them.

Theos nodded, understanding what Luna meant. Still separating from Luna, he pulled a rank A potion from his storage ring.

"Here, I don't know what grade your wound is, but I'm sure this will heal it fairly quickly," Theos stated, offering the potion to Luna.

She smiled gratefully; she accepted the potion and drank it in one go.

She knew what wound Theos was talking about, it was the wound left by that strange guy. She didn't know exactly how deep it was because she didn't even check it, but thanks to covering it with her shadows, she didn't bleed to death.

After drinking the potion, she instantly felt much better, not only did the wound not hurt at all, but also her strength recovered slightly.

After checking that everything was fine, Theos checked the negative aura he lent Luna. Thanks to the negative mana he realized the wound Luna had.

After deep thought, he realized that it was best for Luna to still have the negative Mana; it would give her more security and more strength, and in general, she would become more powerful.
