The King's Mandate: Anomalous System

Chapter 80: Angel Of Annihilation

We went to the balcony of the palace to see what was going on outside.

Outside the palace, or should I say in the city, there was an army of skeleton knights, three wolves, and four snails, but...something is different about them.

"Lily! What's going on?"

[I don't know, but...they are corrupted]

"Corrupted? What do you mean?"

[It's because of you!]

"Because...of me?"

[It's because you are a sys--you cleared this world before they released it and that error at the end. It corrupted this world's data as well as the monsters inside it]

That sounds really bad.

"I will do something!"

"You stay here, Das. I will handle them," said Elena.

"What are you talking about---"

Elena jumped from the balcony.

"Hey, get back. What do you think about you---"

"Let her fight, Das Ryle."

"You haven't seen her in action yet, right?" Rikka asked.

"I haven't."

"Don't worry about her. She is stronger than all of us," said Ricky.

"..."

I am still worried.

Wolves were on the frontline, followed by snails and the army of skeleton knights.

I am anxious. There is no way she can take care of all of them all by herself.

"I will go help her, after all."

"Das!" Elena yelled.

"I am coming down!"

"No! Stay there, and I am sorry!"

"Why are you apologizing?!"

"You will have to rebuild this city!"

What is she talking about?

Elena took out her sword. The wolves dashed at her.

Not good! Will the wolves kill...her...huh?

What just happened?!

Elena was in front of the wolves, and now she is behind them!

"Did she just teleport?" I asked.

"No. She passed them"

She passed them? How?!

She was even faster than my sprinter skill.

When I glanced at the wolves, their bodies were cleaved in half.

Not only did she pass them, but she cut them too!

Now the snails. Their shell is hard. I had to go through hell to defeat them.

Elena raised her sword and swung it. I can see the slash mark! It's not moving! It is just there, shining brightly.

Elena swung her sword three more times, and all four slashes are visible. They are not moving. She turned her sword again, but this time she hit all four slashes. As soon as the last tear hit the other slashes, they moved with the speed of light, like lightning, and hit the snails.

The shells of the snails broke and cleaved them.

"See? You were worried for nothing."

Was she that strong?! How come no one told me about it?!

She killed them in one hit.

Now there is an entire army of skeleton knights. There are approximately 5 thousand of them. There is no way she can defeat them alone. I have to go--

"You shouldn't go, Adas."

"But there is an entire army, and she is alone!"

"No need to worry about her. Oversee her."

Elena put her sword back in the sheath and took out...

"What is that? A wand?"

"It's a magic item."

She raised the wand in the air.

Magic circles appeared in the sky, covering the entire army of skeletons.

She lowered the wand and pointed at the army.

The magic circles shined brightly. Dazzling, shiny spears rained down from the magic rings. In a matter of seconds, the entire army was lying on the ground.

"She is awesome."

Ricky patted my shoulder and said, "She is the top 11th player in the game."

Top...

"Top 11th?!"

"She got the nickname 'Angel of Annihilation' when she used those skills in the last event."

"...!"

"Even we didn't know that she had those skills. We saw her using it in the event"

"There were some top players in that event too. She can easily take care of them alone," Rikka quipped.

"But she was at the 10th place in the event"

"That's because when she used those skills, she died in her attack."

"....."

If she was that powerful, then why didn't she...I see. All of her skills cover a large area. If she were to use it in a raid or boss battle, her attacks would hit other players too.

"Hey...what's going on now?"

"Their bodies aren't disappearing!"

Their bodies didn't disappear.

[It's no use. Their data is corrupted. They won't die]

Their bodies multiplied in pieces they were cut.

They surrounded Elena. All of them...it's happening again, and I am just...watching...

Elena stabbed her sword to the ground.

Swoosh~~ Whoosh~~

That's all I heard.

The next moment, the entire city was destroyed, including the army, and Elena was standing alone holding her sword on the ground...her sword just shattered into pieces.

That was her 4th skill. She said she has six skills.

[It's no use. They won't die, no matter how many times you kill them]

They rose again. This time, even more in numbers.

She doesn't have a sword. She can't use those skills again. She can't...

"I have to do something---"

Roar!~~ Roar!~~

All the monsters are here, so how could I forget about Dragernix?

Black scales, red eyes, grey horns...what's with its size?

It is even bigger than last time, and not only that, its roar is even louder and the force from its wing...I have to do something.

Elena is alone there...I need to deal with Dragernix quickly and---

Roar!!~~ Roar!!~~

In its one roar, half of the palace was destroyed.

Rikka and Ricky jumped down, and Xerah...

"Xerah!!"

"It's okay Das Ryle. See you at school tomorrow."

When Dragernix roared, Xerah protected me by hugging me, and her body turned into small pixels...

[They are corrupted. Their stats are infinite. We can't defeat them!]

We can't defeat them...there is no way I will let it live!

I tried to attack Dragernix, but it wasn't there. It was in the city where Elena was.

My head has been hurting for a while! I can't think straight! Dammit!

I have to go to Elena and...

The Dragernix breathed fire...

"Elena!"

Ricky and Rikka were there too.

When Dragernix stopped spitting fire, they were still standing...how?

[Ricky used the skill that lets him sustain all the damage for one minute]

I am glad...hey!

"Lily! your body!"

When I glanced at Lily, her body was turning into pixels...

[It's okay]

"It's not! It's not okay! You are not allowed to die!"

I grabbed her and covered her with my hands.

[I am fine, Adas]

When I opened my fist, her body was back to normal.

"Are you okay?!"

[Yeah. I am fine]

"Good. Now we should---"

[Watch out!]

Dragernix flapped his wings and roared at me. I was sent flying. I don't remember how many walls I hit or how many times I hit the floor.

I can't stop! The speed is too high!

My skills are still on cooldown. I can't do anything even if I want to!

I was cushioned by something. I looked around to see that I am in the throne room.

[Adas, are you okay?!]

I finally got to sit on the throne, but this throne is not like the throne I used to sit...used to?

[Adas, are you okay?!]

[Adas?]

"Yeah. I am okay, Lily."

[Your...eyes]

"What's wrong with my eyes?"

[They are--]

"Anyways, I have to deal with that Dragernix. You wait here; I will be right back."
