Chapter 235: A rivals debut [2]
30th Day of the RPG trial
Within the land ruled by the Demon King lies his people, his generals, and others that joined his cause. A land that housed thousands of demons, a few dark factions, and the smallest in population, the humans. One put of the two was shaken from the voyage of the king and it was none other than the regressor herself
[What’s got you all worried, Rachel? The time of his death has yet to appear but you’re shaking in your boots. Remember you have the duties as the avatar of the one who bends time]
"I know what you mean but I can’t stop worrying. The case of him being the Demon King stands as living proof he has what it takes to survive... but being in the spotlight has its fair share of troubles and him being the King no less is frustrating— Huh!!? How could this have happened?"
Rachel who contracted with her deity had an active blessing that allows her to see the remaining time of a living being. But on the fourth day, Christopher Morris left on his own would change the gears of fate and bring forth a disaster. The time he had left shortened what was meant to be nearly worth a year
[One of many of Chronos’s passive blessings: (Eye of duration) grants the player the ability to peek through the lifespan or time the target has
Current target: Christopher Morris
Age: 30
Affiliation: Player
Gender: Male
Class: None
Fate: Only death awaits those fated to die, those who opposed their fate will only walk a life full of tribulations
Time: 139 hours, 33 minutes, 11 seconds till the target dies
Death: ???]
[60 days? Only 2 months passed away in the first and second trials, but he up and did it again for the third time. How the hell is your former lover attracting a death flag whenever we least suspect it]
Before she could utter a word, a voice she was well familiar with called for her at the other side of the door. "Silvia, are you awake? It’s General Meltear, the Lord just arrive a few hours ago... all of us are ordered to greet him at his throne, Lucifer added that he’ll kill you if you don’t obey,"
’He just returned... Morris, what the hell have you gotten yourself into— wait, what’s this? The main quest drastically changes!!?’
One after another she was greeted by a bad omen and the system itself seals the deal with a message for everyone to hear
[System: Due to a certain occurrence the main trial quest has been altered! Instead of a regular ending, the true ending will change the former scenario
Newly added option: Since we’ve promised that the third trial is a god sent to the unfortunate will gladly respect your wishes. You can choose to participate with the added changes of the trial and put your life in danger to reap the rewards... or will you remain as you are and keep yourself alive?
Additional information: For the next 24 hours the system will allow you to access the player server that was prohibited in the current trial]
’Morris... what the hell did you do?’
...
days ago
"Come forth and swarm, flies of Beelzebub!" Countless insects swarm from his back and made their way to their destined target whilst their caster descent the mountaintop
"Come back here!!!"
Cocytus was just a hair away from his spit for this massive snake’s speed and endurance were unlike its size agile it was swift. From what he collected so far a single hit no matter the force as long as it originated from his enemy would undoubtedly spell his undoing. So instead of charging headfirst like he used to he plunges to the depths below with record speed with the help of his wings
[What now Morris? Any second later and you’re dead when the hell did you think you could face a gigantic serpent? If it weren’t for those bugs shielding your back you would’ve been dead]
’I thought you wanted some action, there you have it you psychotic fuck! Don’t worry I told you I have a plan. We just need to stall some time, my familiars are prepping up so we better stay alive. The other part was already handled by Lilith,’
In his journey to escape the treacherous peak, he was certain of one thing, he couldn’t escape even if he wanted to. Morris on the other hand saw this as a chance to lure his enemy to his realm where only he reigns supreme over everyone else. The edge where they stood was the part where not even the sun had reached and the shadows which lurked were more than he imagined
"Darkness manipulation, Void shield!!"
He withstands the volley of ice rapidly thrown at him from above and some were even repelled back tits’s caster. Cocytus saw his defense as an opportunity and he plunges from the rocks he slithered and just the weight of his body broke the shield. But when he came face to face with his foe the only thing he saw was his menacing smile
"Darkness manipulation, Iron maiden,"
The shadows returned to his control and formed a cocoon-like shape and develop spikes plunging themselves in its scales. Having lost its sight, Cocytus was led astray to the dark where he couldn’t detect his foe nor damage it with any means. But he didn’t take the humiliation and in his rage comes a raging blizzard that freed and disrupted the casting of his enemy
"Oh no you don’t! I won’t let you have your way, this is the last time you toy with me you, you cowardly demon!!!"
It was a battle of endurance for these two giants once again and it was something that the serpent had a definite chance. The terrain supported his body well and even without the ice this beast of a snake was far more than he could ever imagine. But even the mightiest demon would fall short on one thing the Demon King was versatile
’Father the preparations are done. When shall we launch the spear? I need the coordinates it’s hard to maintain the spell without your presence. Nevermind. I’ll send it to you right now,’
"So you’ve finally chosen to stand up for yourself? Huh, I never thought you’d be an honorable demon if you came face to face with your undoing. No matter. I commend you for the breathtaking battle—"
There wasn’t a clear sign of what was he cooking at the beginning middle or end of his battle but everything was clear. The flies he kept summoning didn’t die to shield him from his foe for they were never the type of fly he’d call to fight. The flies he spam were ordered to draw the potent mana from their surroundings for his endgame to be a reality
[Diabolous ex-machina: The amount of mana stored in the core exceeds the limit you currently have. Instead of wasting the excess mana, we decided to add the overflowed mana to use [Overdrive]. The specified function Dreadful Wings you previously chose is now mutated
Dreadful Wings (Mutated): Doubles the number of feathers you could shoot and maintain flight. Entering thruster mode will allow you to enter a speed never before experienced. Activating [Sky piercer] will grant you immunity in knockback, invincibility for 10 seconds, and penetration for 60% of the enemy’s max defense]
"Let’s see who’s gonna die!!!" His taunt caught Gaust where he wanted him and he reacted poorly in turn
Instead of figuring out his endgame, Cocytus launched a full attack and forgot the fact that he can easily avoid it with the use of void walk. That led to Morris teleporting from below and using what little remained of his excess mana to cast another darkness manipulation. He wrapped his enemy in the shadows and with his thrusters fully charged the two of them flew to the top
"You know what demons hate the most? Sorry to say but you’re heading for one of them, you are powerful but I want my lackey back... there’s no way I’ll settle for an idiot like yourself,"
The charged thrusters sent them packing and the light grew even brighter when they draw closer to the spear. This was his ace in the hole a spear crafted by Jin and the heavenly aura granted by Esther’s role as a saint. At their current trajectory, it was a sure-fire hit, and at the last second, he manages to escape by void walking. Gaust on the other hand faces the full might of the heavenly aura exploding with a brilliant spark
"I made sure the potency wasn’t enough to kill a greater demon but with that attack, it’s no doubt in my mind... even someone like you will be rid of all their excess demonic energy since you can’t control them I’ll take it as my down payment. Rest well, Gaust. We have a lot to talk about once you’re awake,"
In his hands lies Cocytus or more or less Gaust badly wounded from their fight and the demons who view their match kneeled in his presence. There was one thing that Morris took into account, compared to demons they’ll undoubtedly kneel to absolute power. But humans even if they saw such a feat would turn a blind eye and be full of arrogance but this isn’t their world. In the land of demons, the strong are respected, worshipped and some even view the wielder of such power as their King
[System: You’ve openly proven your strength as the third incarnation of the Demon King by defeating the rebellion leader!!!]
