Reincarnated in a novel: I am the villain!

[The Royal Plaza]

"Now let’s even the odds!"

Damien sprinted toward the towering leg of the Royal Guardian Titan.

The Bone Dragon didn’t wait. Seeing a threat to its dominance, the colossal undead construct roared, a sound of twisting metal and wailing souls.

It abandoned the cowering civilians and lunged at the stationary mech.

A skeletal claw the size of a carriage slashed through the air, aiming to decapitate the Titan before it could wake up.

"It’s too fast!" Hephaestus screamed over the external speakers. "The hydraulics are cold! I can’t move the arm!"

"Shadow Step!"

Damien didn’t run up the leg. He vanished in a blur of black mist and reappeared fifty feet in the air, landing perfectly on the open chest hatch of the Titan.

He instantly dropped inside.

CLANG-HISS.

The heavy Mithril hatch sealed shut, cutting off the screams of the city.
