Chapter 11:More More More

The moment Velnova appeared in front of Dino, the lazy fallen angel barely had time to react before he was engulfed in a massive, crushing embrace.

CRACK!

Dino's entire body tensed, his bones groaning under the sheer pressure of Velnova's grip. "Gah—! W-Wait, hold on—!"

Velnova only tightened his hold.

CRACK. CRACK.

More bones snapped.

Dino wheezed, his wings twitching as he tried to free himself, but it was useless. The pressure felt endless, like space itself was collapsing around him.

Velnova slowly patted his head, his fingers running through Dino's hair in an almost gentle manner—until he suddenly yanked it back.

"You really live up to your reputation, huh?" Velnova smirked. "A lazy bum, sleeping while the world moves around you. Do you even know how much of a joke you are?"

Dino groaned. "L-Look, I know I slack off, but—AH!"

Velnova ruffled his hair roughly, yanking it just hard enough to make Dino wince.

"Tch. You're not even worth killing right now."

With that, Velnova let go—and before Dino could even process what happened, Velnova disappeared into the void.

Without a sound, Velnova materialized behind Obera, his presence so seamless that not even her heightened senses detected him.

Before she could react—

YANK!

A violent pull tore through her scalp as a massive chunk of her hair was ripped away, leaving behind nothing but bare skin.

Obera screeched, her entire body jerking forward as she instinctively grabbed at her head.

"Wha—?!"

She turned sharply, her eyes filled with shock and fury, only to see Velnova casually twirling her long silver strands in his fingers, examining them like they were nothing more than discarded threads.

"Huh," he mused. "So even high-ranking angels can go bald. Interesting."

Obera trembled, her face burning with humiliation.

Velnova smirked, casually tossing her stolen hair aside like it was worthless.

"You should really take better care of your scalp. It'd be a shame if you ended up permanently hairless."

And just like that—he was gone, leaving behind nothing but Obera's rage-filled scream echoing through the air.

Velnova's Sneak Attack on Milim

Without a warning—

SMACK!

A thunderous slap landed across Milim's face, the sheer force sending her skidding backward, her boots carving trenches into the ground. A thin trail of blood dripped from the corner of her lips.

"Ow! What the hell?!" Milim yelled, clutching her cheek as she looked around wildly.

Then she saw him—

Velnova, standing casually with a smug grin, as if he hadn't just assaulted one of the strongest beings in existence.

"Damn, Milim. I thought Dragonoids had tougher skin," he mocked, shaking his hand as if her face had hurt him more than the other way around. "Guess I was wrong. You're squishier than I thought."

Milim's eyes twitched in both pain and fury. "You… YOU—!"

But before she could even react—

Velnova vanished.

A gust of wind replaced where he once stood, leaving behind nothing but his laughter ringing in her ears.

Milim stomped her foot, causing the ground to crack beneath her.

"YOU JERK!!!" she screamed into the sky.
