章節 25: Chapter 25
The world was shocked, the battle between the raven-black hero and the skeleton dragon shook the kingdom. Many had to go to the battlefield to see if the scale of the damage was true... and they were horrified, to say the least.
Amongst the people that went was the Slane Theocracy, they dropped by on their way to the great tomb of Nazarick, and upon seeing how a whole forest was destroyed, they sent people to go see this raven-black hero, while the rest arrived at Fake Nazarick.
"Greetings, guest of the Slane Theocracy." The Deputy Leader of the battle maids, Yuri Alpha bowed lightly to the guests who were stepping out of the carriage. Behind her, a group of death knights made their move, some went to take care of the carriage, while others put tables down.
"G-Greetings." A chubby woman said in shock seeing the beauty of the maids, she wasn't alone as along with everyone else, they were shocked as they instantly realized that such beauties were of the gods... or at least greatly related with the players.
"Please, take a seat. The supreme one is getting ready to see you all." Yuri said with a gentle smile, and to that everyone had no choice but to take a seat and begin to enjoy the meals brought to them... and once they did, they knew for sure this Supreme one they were going to meet had to be a player.
It took some time, but soon the doors to Nazarick opened, and I walked out, behind me followed Albedo, and all of the floor guardians, all but the Atomic Twins and Toph who were with my avatar at the moment. I took a seat on the throne that I summoned, and with the guardians standing to my right and left, I looked at the members of the Slane Theocracy.
They were all shaken to say the least seeing our appearance, although we were not trying to give off any pressure, those with sharp instincts knew for sure that they might be in danger... and that was even more so when they looked upon me, it was like looking at death itself for them.
Once everyone was in position, Demiurge stepped forward, and with a small cough, he spoke. Currently, Demiurge has a frog-like head, unlike his normal humanoid-like appearance.
"Kneel before the supreme one." He ordered, and his words carried a unique power that bypassed all of their resistance towards his power. With their free will taken away, all of them came before me, and fell to their knees, something which horrified them all.
"Sorry, but I had enough of you insects stepping into my home, so our meeting shall be held out here," I said while sizing all of them up before my eyes landed on a girl who had heterochromia for both her eyes and hair. One side of her hair is silver, while the other half is black.
"Our apologies, we received a prophecy of the Catastrophe Dragon Lord's resurrection. In response, the Black Scripture was deployed to slay it. We meant you no ill will." the Cardinal of Fire said sweat covering her face.
"I see... then you may leave, consider your action forgiven. We would have a lot of work to do." I said shocking everyone, and even the floor guardians who didn't expect my words.
"W-what do you mean?" The Cardinal Of Water asked with unease.
"Thanks to you, I now realize that trouble would come to us even if we stay to ourselves. With that knowledge, it would be foolish to not prepare for any and all danger that could come." I said coldly.
"W-what do you have in mind?" The Cardinal Of Darkness asked with sweat falling down his face.
"It's simple really, I will form my kingdom. If staying quiet will no longer work, then I shall be loud about it." I said causing sweat to cover all of the Cardinal's faces,
"T-then let's ally." The Cardinal Of Fire said in horror,
"Like we need..." Shalltear wanted to mock them, but she was kicked by Aura, causing her to throw a death glare at her.
"Silence !" I ordered with a dramatic gesture which instantly killed all sound. Everyone was shaken and for the next 2 seconds, there were no sounds to be heard. They couldn't even hear their thoughts, it left everyone shaken by this, but the sound soon hit them once more, sounding louder than ever before, forcing them all to need a second to adapt.
"W-w-w-w-w..." The cardinal of fire was shaking, horrified by the power she had just seen. In her eyes, I ordered the world to go quiet, so it did just that. Such godly levels of power, she didn't know how to even think or react.
"You are something that goes against the balance of this world." Suddenly everyone's attention was drawn over to a being in armor who had swords floating around him. I looked at this guy with narrowed eyes, before speaking.
"Go bring its main body here," I ordered, and to that, Aura stepped forward with a respectful bow. What followed was her summoning a huge phoenix which she jumped on, and burst off followed by Cocytus and Shalltear.
Aura had many job classes that had to do with taming and as a Sniper. Amongst the many unique skills she had, she was able to track down a target. Of course, the armor moved to try and stop them seeing as they were truly heading towards where its true body was located, but I spoke.
"As for you... Die." I said coldly, and with that the armor died, not the person controlling the armor, but the armor just died. It fell to the ground, all its power and abilities no more... this shook the members of the Slane Theocracy, for that was the thing they were bidding on, and it failed with a simple word.
"You thought you were clever trying to do what? Get me to fight him?" I asked while looking at all of them with narrowed eyes.
"Forgive us, we were foolish..." The cardinal of fire was speaking, but I just told her to die, and with that she dropped to the ground, lifeless.
"Die," I said once more, and another one of the Cardinals just dropped dead. This horrified everyone, but those who were about to move also died as I ordered them, and before long, only one person amongst the Cardinals remained.
"The Slane Theocracy would do everything in its power to ensure the rise of your kingdom," THe Cardinal Of Light said in horror. He looked at me, while I simply looked at him as if wondering if I should bother.
"Then... I look forward to such a future... As a show of goodwill, I will even become a living being to increase our bond." With my words, and before those I didn't kill eyes, they all watched as flesh, muscles, and other things covered me. Before their eyes, I was no longer a skeleton, but a human.
"And for no bad will... I shall return them all to life." I said with a smile while waving my hands, and with that life returned to those I just skilled. This once more shocked the Cardinal of Light who didn't know what to think. We locked eye contact, and the Cardinal Of Light didn't dare to breathe. Although I had a smile on, he felt like he was standing before the Grim Reaper, a being whose power transcended his god...
***
Just while the members of the Slane Theocracy were leaving, they were shocked to see a Platinum dragon falling from the heavens. It landed loudly on the ground, with Aura lightly landing on top of it.
"How was it? I doubt he could put up a fight against you?" I said while looking at the dragon who was struggling to stand.
"It was too easy, he had some unique magic he called Wild Magic or something, but we had complete immunity to it. His tier magic was too low to affect us, so he could only face us in physical combat, but I was far stronger than him even in that." Aura said in disappointment at how weak this dragon was,
"My lord, We discovered another guild which should have been the guild of the 8 Greed Kings," Shalltear said with a bow, causing my eyes to narrow for a moment. I looked towards Albedo, who nodded lightly before having Shalltear lead the way.
I looked at the members of the Slane Theocracy who were shaken by what they just saw, before returning to my guild... I was starting to enjoy taking a passive role. It's like the role of a king was something I was starting to enjoy...
"That's no player... that's Death." In the carriage, the Cardinal had a horrified look on the way home.
"What are we supposed to do? How do we fight against something that with a simple order could kill both the living and nonliving... he killed sound and even sounds in our mind." They were about to pull out their hair, they were loyal to their kingdom, and that's why they had no choice but to face the cruel fact that they... well, they were going to die.
"There has to be a limit to his power... there has to be." Of course, they would seek hope within the dark, but they knew best that the might of a player wasn't something they could face... plus, the 6 great gods and even the 8 Greed Kings... were not as scary as what they just faced. The Platinum Dragon was a dragon that took part in the battle against the 8 Greed Kings, he was far weaker back then, and today is around level 90, but even then he was no match.
"We have no choice but to give in to their demands, everything was recorded... we need to go through everything and find something useful." The Cardinal Of Light said with a blank look, his mind still filled with the image of the grim reaper looking straight at him... He was traumatized, he would kill himself if not for the thought that that thing would be there waiting to take his soul. Who knew death was so scary...
