The King's Mandate: Anomalous System

Chapter 70: Get In The Line

Days passed by...well, actually only two days. It's Sunday today, currently 6 AM.

The server will open at 7 AM, and the world zero event will start.

"Das, breakfas--why are you using your laptop again?!"

"I just woke up!"

"I will throw it away if I see you using a laptop in the morning."

"...."

She got angry! What would she do if I told her that I didn't sleep last night and used my laptop all night?

After taking a bath, I was eating breakfast, and my mom said...

"Lier called me last night."

"I see."

"She said something about you."

"What did...she say?"

" She told me to say 'I am sorry' to you. What did she do?"

I am clueless too! Did she apologize for that kiss?!

"What else did she say?"

"She asked me when you started going out with Elena."

"...."

"She also asked about that VR game."

"I...see."

"What else?"

"She asked which middle school Elena used to go to."

"....!"

Did she figure out that they used to go to the same school?! But they weren't friends or anything but then again...if she really figured it out, then...wait, don't tell me she apologized for that!?

Why did she apologize for that? Is she backing out now? She doesn't want to marry me anymore?!

That's not fair. She is not going anywhere. I will not let her go now...now that I made up my mind, now that I realized my feelings, I realized I love her.

"Hey, mom, I will ask you one question. Answer me, honestly."

"Oh? Bring it on!"

"Did you already know that Lier is in love with me?"

"..."

"Mom?"

"Why do you want to know that?"

"Because I am a fool."

Because I can't understand feelings

"She has always been in love with you. Ever since she was a kid, she used to say, 'I will marry Das when I grow up,' and you used to ignore that.

"I...don't remember that"

Why don't I remember that? We were indeed kids at that time, but...I don't even have a little memory of that!

All I remember is some stuff about me and the time I spent at the palace. All I remember is some other stuff that is not important at all!

I am always like this...too full of myself.

"Are you done eating?"

"Yeah"

After that, I logged into LWO. Elena was already there.

"You are right on time!" She said.

"Ricky and Rikka are not here?"

"They said they would come later."

"So it's just the two of us?"

[Hello, Adas. Hello Elena]

"Hello Lily, we are--"

"Lily is here!"

"....."

"Hey, stay away from Lily. She is mine."

"Give me Lily."

"Not happening."

[Why are you two fighting over me?]

"Because we love you!" We both said it in unison.

[But I am just an AI]

"So what?"

"I can't love AI?"

I have decided to talk with Rias once this world zero event ends.

"We should hurry! Someone might go in before us!"

World 0 event is an open event. Any player who is level 40+ can enter. It might not be just me and Elena there.

When we reached the portal in the middle of world 1, there were already some players there.

"Tch, here comes two more," one of the players said.

What's wrong with you?

"Does he want to die?"

"What did you say?"

Oops! My inner thoughts and what I wanted to say got switched! Well, who cares?

"I said, do you want to die?"

"Are you looking for a fight?"

"Hey Aryd, stop it!" the other player who was with him said.

"He started first!"

"I am just saying it in general. That floor is impossible to clear. If you go in there, you will die"

"You are saying it like you already have seen it."

Well, I have.

"Das. Leave it"

"Fine"

There are still 10 mins left before the portal activates. The number of players will keep increasing. The player who went in first will be...well, first?

"Move aside!" a player wearing red armor said.

"Make space."

"Let us go."

There are nearly 50 players who are wearing the same red outfit.

"Hey...isn't that Red Dragon guild!"

A guild? Is it necessary for all guild members to wear the same outfit?"

"Get out of the way!"

"Stay away from the portal!"

What the hell? We are waiting for the portal to open, and they just come and order to clear the way?

"Hey, what gives? We are waiting here since the server opened, and you just come and order us?" the...what was his name? Aryd, yeah, Aryd said.

"Do you think some low-level players like you can win against our great leader Byldger?

Now, who the hell is this buldger? Are they trying to say bulldozer?

"Hey, Elena, who is this Buldoger?"

"It's Byldger, the Red Dragon guild leader and the top 4th player in the game."

"So why are they ordering us?"

"Because they are strong."

"What do you mean?"

"They are strong, so they want to go first."

"...."

I see. So that's what's going on. They are strong, so they want to go in first? What the hell?

[The Portal Is Now Open. Please Proceed Through The Portal To Enter World 0]

No one is moving. All the players were waiting for the portal to open, but now...no one is moving.

"Let's go Ele--Reina."

"But--"

I grabbed her hand and walked to the portal.

"Stop right there!"

Two players who were guarding the portal said as they stopped us by crossing their swords.

"Let us go, or I will break your hands."

"What's going on here?" someone from behind us said.

"It's lord Byldger!"

"Lord, there is a player who is trying to go through the portal."

"Didn't I say to clear every player?!"

"Yes, you did but--"

"I don't need any excuses. You are kicked out from the guild!"

"But I did what--"

"Get out of my sight!"

He walked up to us and glanced at us.

"Who are they?"

"They are the ones who are trying to go into the portal."

"Hah? Are you kidding me?"

"The portal is open, my lord."

"Yeah, Let's go."

"Hold the fuck down. Where do you think you are going?"

"Are you blind or what? Can't you see we are going to the portal!"

"We came here first."

"So what?"

"So we are going in. Get in the line asshole."

"Adas!"

"Hey now, what level are you...are you kidding me? You are only level 40 and trying to talk with me? Get lost you shit."

"You get lost."

"You are trying your luck. If I punch you, you will die instantly, so hey, this girl looks beautiful. Hey, girl, come with me."

"My lord, she is at level 52 only"'

"What? Why do even low-level players like you exist in the game?"

"My lord, this girl was the 10th in the last event."

"Oh? Hey girl, come with me...no, join my guild, there is one vacant slot for a player like you."

"I am not joining."

"Did this girl just reject me? How dare she--"

"Touch her, and you will die."

I will kill you in the real world too!

"Why are you still here, shit? Get lost"

"I am going into the portal."

"Like hell, I am going to let you go. Hey, someone grabs him!"

Now he is pissing me off...

"Adas, let's stop."

"Huh? What are you talking about?"

"We can't clear it anyway. Let them go."

"...."

That's not happening. After all the things you did for me...how can you say that!

"This girl is smart. She understands that a low-level player like you can't clear it."

"Shut the hell up!"

"What did you say?"

"If you want to go in, then beat me in a duel."

"Why do I have to duel with a low-level player like you?"

"What's wrong? Scared of losing?"

"Hah? Scared? And me? The great me?"

"Then try winning against me."

"I don't waste my time when I already know I will win."

"If..."

"Hah?"

"If you win, you can go through the portal."

"Oh? Who are you to permit me?"

"I am just a low-level player."

"You want me to beat the shit out of you, don't you?"

"That's my line."

"Challenge accepted"

"Adas, please stop this. You can't--"

"Don't worry. Lily, take care of Elena."

[Okay]

All the players present there came with us to the training ground.

"Are you ready to die, shit?"

"I am ready to kill you, bullgeezer."

"It's Byldger!"

"Yeah yeah, whatever."

We both grabbed our swords.

"I don't think it will happen, but what is your condition if you win?"

"Glad that you asked. I have been dying to say that"

"Spit it out already."

"If you win, you can enter the portal, and if I win, then you...no, all your guild members, including you, will lick my shoe and ask for my forgiveness."

"You bastard! I will slice you into two."
