MMORPG: Rebirth of the Mortal Online

Chapter 286: Clever!



Hidden behind some trees, a long-dressed woman stared out towards the sky with her round eyes, her lips slightly parted.

However, there was something odd with her eyes.

Her pupils looked like a pair of zooming lenses, constantly adjusting and refocusing on something far away.

"Lucia, you see him?" Behind a tree, Chloe asked while holding a heavy-looking bow.

The bow was resting on the ground, on her hand, and it was arched like a moon during a lunar eclipse.

She also carried only one arrow. It was all she was able to carry. It wasn't a wooden arrow, but a sleek, metal one with a sharpened tip.

It was definitely not made out of just any common metal that one could find from any metalwork shop, but a rare, otherworldly alloy.

"I do." Lucia said, and her pupils zoomed in once again.

With her amazing eyesight, she was able to see the winged figure fly over the clouds. It was like she had binoculars attached to her eyes.

"Give me it." Lucia blindly moved her hand in Chloe's direction.

She handed her the arched bow and the sleek arrow.

Lucia placed the arrow in the bow and pulled the string taut. It seemed very difficult to pull it, but she didn't look like she was struggling and even made it easy.

'Haha, the best archer of these lands has arrived in the battle!' Chloe said with a grin. 'Lucia, our very own marksman, never misses!'

She idolized Lucia with her entire heart.

The whole Battle Maidens were putting their trust in Lucia's hands. She would most likely decide whether they would win or lose this battle.

Ever since finding out the ending of the fight, Wrath made some plans and gave Lucia her order-to kill the winged figure that would arrive in the middle of the fight.

While Lucia didn't know who she would be ordered to kill, she trusted Wrath's judgment and followed through with the plan.

It was because they all knew about her ability to see through the future.

However, with this, she was changing the future, and Wrath didn't know the outcome of her altered vision.

Thus, she didn't know whether Lucia would actually hit the winged figure or not.

However, it didn't matter.

Through the years and through hundreds of battles, Lucia had never missed!

It didn't matter whether one had Kiryoku or not!

The string shook under the weight of the pull, and Lucia's eyes zoomed in on the target. She licked the air, calculating the wind quickly, and then moved the bow slightly.

With a short stop of breath, she released the arrow, watching as it flew straight towards the clouded sky.

The arrow went through the clouds, disappearing into the unknown.

It turned silent.

Lucia lowered her bow, and at that moment, the sky exploded, and the clouds burst open with a dazzling display of color.

"A direct hit!" Chloe screamed in excitement.

At the battlefield, there was a moment of silence as everyone stared out towards the sky.

"She did it!" Desire called out with a brilliant smile.

Athena smiled.

'Is it really that easy?' Wrath wondered with her eyebrows furrowing. 'They haven't seen things I've.'

"They attacked the winged creature?" Zephyr frowned. "Who was it?"

"Sir!" Digby arrived by his side, panting. "I think it was Adam!"

"What?" Zephyr turned to him with a frown.

"That winged figure. I think it was Adam!" Digby shouted. "He has the ability to use wings. I think it is some kind of Transformation Magick he'd unlocked!"

"Then that means..." Zephyr turned to the exploded sky. "I can't sense his aura anymore!"

"Fuck, they'd been waiting for him!" Taurus rushed past the soldiers while carrying his axe.

"This is what I feared." Zephyr frowned. "Wrath's ability to see the future. It's not something we can't counter, and we couldn't avoid this battle with them."

"Is he really dead already?" Andromeda asked as she walked over to them. "The Slayer of Calamity dead like this? I am dis-"

"Andromeda, silence." Zephyr's tone turned so cold that she turned speechless.

'He couldn't possibly die...' Digby thought to himself, feeling a sense of dread creeping over him.

At that moment, the explosion cleared up, and something started falling from the sky. Everyone turned their eyes towards it, witnessing a figure dropping from the sky.

However, the figure was bare naked, and on his back, he had grotesque arm wings that looked like they belonged to a demon. He was severely burned and unconscious.

"Who the hell is that?" Zephyr asked. "That ain't Adam!"

'Who?' Digby frowned.

Back by the trees, Chloe jumped in excitement. "You're amazing, Lydia~"

Lydia turned her gaze to the falling figure, used her zooming eyes, and saw that it was just some naked man, ugly, and burned.

'That's how Adam looked? I haven't seen his picture before, but I swear I've heard stories about him being much more handsome than this.'

Stab!

At that moment, a large-bladed sword went through her chest, and she coughed out blood.

Slowly turning her head around, Chloe saw a black-haired young man stabbing his sword through Lucia's body.

Her lips trembled, and then she screamed. "Lydia, no!"

"Mm~" Adam cut through her entire body like butter, and she collapsed on the ground in two

pieces.

"Bastard!" Chloe jumped at him, but Adam locked his aura on her and made her collapse ton/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

the ground in agony.

'W-what?!' Chloe thought with a pale face. 'Commanding Aura of Royal Prince?! There is no way he is at that level yet!'

True, Adam hadn't reached the Royal Prince yet, but the peak of Prime Mercenaries was able to tap into that power even if it was just a little bit.

"So, she really saw the future. Whew." Adam wiped the cold sweat off his brows. "That

could've ended badly.

"Y-you knew about Wrath?" Lydia asked while lying on the ground, only her upper body still

moving.

"I did." Adam chuckled. "I expected you to use her power to see the outcome of the fight. However, I didn't expect her to find a counter for me. I should be honored."

When he was flying towards the battlefield, he tried to remember everyone that belonged to

Battle Maidens during the Great Guild War.

However, since the war started earlier this time around, there could be other wildcards that

other factions didn't have beforehand.

Just like Wrath.

He felt incredibly lucky that he happened to remember her. After all, there weren't many that could see the future like she could in the entirety of Mortal Online.

At the Second Great Guild War, Death and Star Factions both only had one person that was

able to see further than 24 hours into the future.

Both of them were one of the most important members of their respective factions.

Back in the previous life, Wrath didn't participate in the Great Guild War because, unfortunately, she was killed before the war officially started.

Because of her importance, she was considered a valuable asset, and her death was a major

blow to her faction.

Thus, she was targeted and eventually killed.

Now, because she was still alive, Battle Maidens were much more powerful than in the past

life!

'I created a clone out of myself with the Thousand-Arm Monster of Armageddon skill, and luckily, I was able to trick her future-seeing, but I still didn't expect her to target me

specifically.

'What did she exactly see me do in the future?'

When he departed from the 50th floor, during his travels, he learned the Thousand-Arm Monster of Armageddon transformation spell.

In the end, he decided to use it for himself because of how incredibly useful the skill was.

He was able to create just one clone out of himself. A very poor clone. It wasn't able to move, but he was able to create wings for the clone and was able to move the clone with them. Lydia coughed out blood one more time and then fell silent as she died out of blood loss.

"N-no, Lydia!" Chloe tried to crawl towards Adam to bite him in the ankle, but he stabbed his sword through her heart, also killing her off.

As he stood by the tree line, a powerful gaze landed on him that immediately made him sweat

buckets.

Athena's furious gaze burned into his soul.

'She wants to kill me...' Adam took a deep breath. 'Don't fear now, Adam. Step forward.'

With a racing heartbeat, he stepped forward and started walking towards the battlefield.

"He tricked Wrath!" Taurus spoke out loud in amazement. "A smart fucker, isn't he?!" "That's what he is..." Zephyr smirked and turned his gaze over to Athena. "I've got to keep her occupied. I don't like the look on her eyes."

Digby, and the members of the Crimson Hounds just smirked at their young talent. The pride

in their hearts bloomed like a beautiful flower.

'That strength...' Digby touched his own chest. 'He has already caught up to me. I guess it is

about time to pass the torch to the new generation...'

'He tricked me.' Wrath lowered her head and smiled. 'My sisters believe that my ability is all- powerful. It isn't, and he attacked its weakness. Very impressive, very clever.'
