Transmigrating as an Extra Third-Rate Villain

Chapter 247Snow Day [2]

Feeling the snow hitting my clothes with every second, I turned to Ruby... who was still under the cover of the library building.

Mocking her, I sarcastically asked.

"Are you really that scared of the snow?"

Staying silent, Ruby continued staring up at the sky before eventually responding.

"No...I think it's the other way around."

"...the snow is scared of you."

Nodding her head, Ruby finally stepped out of the library's covering and into the snow, which immediately disintegrated.

The snow that accumulated on the ground immediately melted as she stepped forward on it.

The snowflakes falling from the sky didn't even reach her body, as whenever they got close, they simply disintegrated.

Not a single particle of snow hit her despite the fact that she was standing out in the open under the clouds.

"..."

"..."

Stay in the adventure with m-vl-em,py-r

Trying to find a way to ease the awkward atmosphere, I pointed my thumbs up and said,

"I mean, it's a cool ability. It's like being waterproof... but in this case, snowproof!"

Shaking her head, Ruby looked down at the ground before replying in an energetic tone.

"It's fine... you don't have to sym-"

Interrupting Ruby mid-sentence, I bent down and made a quick snowball with the snow on the ground.

Not wasting a second, I hurled the snowball at Ruby.

Sighing, Ruby stood still and stared at the incoming snowball with an expression full of sorrow.

"Didn't I just show and tell you... snow can't touch m-"

*SPLAT*

*SPLAT*

"..."

"...what was that, Ruby?"

Staring downwards at her clothes, which were somehow stained with snow, Ruby stood shell-shocked, unable to open her mouth.

Slowly moving her hand, Ruby touched the remaining particles of snow on here jacket... and when she saw they didn't melt upon touching her, a smile unknowingly appeared on her face.

Adjusting her gaze, Ruby looked at me with a mixture of confusion and excitement.

"h-how did y-"

Manifesting a piece of physical corruption in my hand, I made another snowball before stuffing the inside of it with corruption.

Ruby couldn't melt corruption... no one could!

So, by stuffing the corruption into the middle of the snowball, I was embedding every particle of snow inside the ball with corruption.

Therefore, they wouldn't meet when Ruby came close or touched them, as my embedded corruption particles would combine with the snow particles and protect them.

Shrugging my shoulders, I smiled and hurled another snowball at the frozen Ruby.

This time, prepared, Ruby caught the snowball before it broke apart and scattered all over the place.

Holding the corrupted snowball in her hand, Ruby stared me with a menacing expression.

"You know... you just ruined my academy uniform with snow."

"...it'll dry off, won't it?"

"That's not the point."

Stepping forward, Ruby ignored the constant falling snow particles that disintegrated as soon as they got near to her and raised her hand.

"You're the first and only target of my first snowball."

...

...

...

Panting, I sat down on a bench, staring at my clothes that were drenched with water as the snow that was previously on them had melted.

Our fight was interesting...It was like a dodgeball match combined with a game of tag, completely deviating from a normal snowball fight.

To make things fair, I had initially given Ruby over ten corrupted snowballs to start off with... and myself ten as well.

However, Ruby seemed to have realized something.

If a corrupted snowball hit something, then all the particles inside the snowball would explode outwards and spread about.

And these particles were all infused with corruption.

These corrupted particles then met other normal snow particles... and corrupted them, turning them into corrupted particles.

And since those new particles were corrupted, Ruby could touch and use them without having them melt and disintegrate.

In other words, Ruby found a way to create infinite corrupted snowballs without even using me in the slightest.

This was a good thing... as I didn't have to limit myself to ten snowballs anymore, but it was also a bad thing.

Ruby... was dangerously good at this.

So much so... that I started to think that she was lying about never experiencing snow.

But that thought quickly faded as I recalled how the snow had melted by just coming within the vicinity of Ruby.

Hearing the popping sound that occurred every time Ruby melted a particle of snow nearing me, I rapidly gathered a couple more snowballs.

Panting, I made my last stand, staying still and fighting instead of running away once again.

Ruby, now approaching me slowly from a distance with an arsenal of corrupted snowballs, simply stared.

"You know... I may be wrong because this my first time throwing snowballs, but you're supposed to dodge them... aren't you?"

Standing up, I hid a snowball behind my back with one of my arms before saying.

"Really now?"

"...you're not slick, you know. That hand behind your back is practically screaming that you're up to something."

Sighing, I didn't waste a second, throwing the snowball as Ruby finished her last few words.

...

...

...

Feeling the cold snow push against my jacket, as I lay back down on the cold-hair floor, I stared upward at the sky.

There were no branches blocking my sight, so I didn't even have to use extra energy to peer.

No longer was I in the library... or anywhere close for that matter but in the middle of the forest surrounding the academy.

As snowflakes descended the sky, landing on my face, I sighed before turning to my side.

Beside me, another figure lay... though no snow was coming near to her.

The ground below her was devoid of any snow, the complete opposite of the ground below me, which was covered in snow.

Chuckling, I propped myself upward before saying.

"I think I won that!"

Raising her rand, Ruby attempted to touch a snowflake... but it disintegrated before even reaching her finger tips.

"Whatever you say."

Ignoring her sarcasm, I quickly manifested a corrupted snowball and threw it above us.

Falling apart in the sky, countless corrupted snow particles descended amongst the normal snow flakes landing on Ruby and I.
