Chapter 176: Worst Time To Strike

Occasionally I notice a few changes here and there, is it my ally’s growth? Another arrival of an anomaly perhaps? Or the movement of the bounty hunter to hell knows where that character is. To be frank, im hearing voices and not the ones you gain from a mental illness. The time has finally come, my written personalities have finally generated their very own nature

Floor 66

’I learned that our enemies are a bunch of mini-bosses, but can they even put up a fight? How shall justice reign supreme if I can’t even increase my current power? This is unacceptable, for I the Radiant Knight must seek a powerful adversary to match my strength,’

’Can you not!! I know we’re the same person, Zen & The Radiant Knight are the same individuals. But to think our personalities have intertwined, whenever we’re outside the battlefield im the one taking over. However, I can’t put up with your words of justice!!! It’s pure bullshit…! I might be a personality born to have a heart of gold, but how you display yourself is embarrassing!!!’

[Are you enjoying your newly gained company?]

Sage couldn’t hide his amusement after seeing his avatar’s tormented facial expression. After they managed to survive on floors 1 – 30 their lives have been easier. Since the rest of the floor didn’t require any specific requirements. They were able to push through the other floors with nothing but brute force. Leading them to their current location that only required them to travel nonstop for the next 18 days

“Shut the fuck up!!! I don’t want to hear anything from either both of you!!! Let alone hear your shitty complaints, if you piss me off for even a second. So help me you’ll beg not to be permanently deleted from my skill!!! Do I make myself clear!!!?” He yelled at his split personality even though his life was being threatened by an unknown player. He was hiding behind an abandoned building near the story quest. After having his body punctured by a powerful attack that pierces through his defense

[System: The split personality called [Radiant Knight] & Its alter ego named [Zen Bleightrol] have listened to the orders of the player. Your mind has been cleared, you can feel that your head has been released from a stressful situation. The player is applying his only healing ability to his wounds]

Potions were unable to heal his injuries, even the attack and power were too much for his body to handle. It was quite different from the speed of the Asura that he faced which has a certain presence whenever it strikes. The attack that dealt such a huge and painful blow inside his bleeding abdomen didn’t possess such a thing. It felt like a ghost that even he, a person that mastered the art of detecting one’s presence was attacked

’Bounty hunter… It has to be that asshole… Arrrgh… God damn it, even though I’ve described the pain, this doesn’t even match my book. Grrrh, it ducking stings!!? What the hell was impaled inside my body, for now, let’s deal with these rats,’

His screams have drawn the attention of a few unknown players to his location. Even though this area was within the safe zone, they were holding their weapons to kill. Luckily for him, Morris had the aid of a few individuals that were strong enough to defend his injured body

[Special ability: You’ve called for the assistance of the sacred weapon [Diablos] the demon of machinery]

“I’ve come as soon as you requested my assistance, my dear master, oh my! It seems that you’ve been inflicted by an attack endowed with a Feiruan flower. It’s a flower similar to the effects of Feijin, that destroys the regeneration cells in a person’s body. However, the Feiruan ultimately rejects any form of foreign substance to ever reach the injured cells. Causing anyone to be inflicted by such a thing to have lost the ability to heal with the use of healing potions,” Diablos carefully checked his wounds and aided him with the use of his very own ability that healed Morris’s injury

[Feiruan & Feijin flowers? Aren’t they quite a rare opportunity to acquire? I remember that you pick a few of the selected herbs in the random herb bag to generate a few. But to think that there’s a person apart from you that was able to acquire such a thing. This isn’t something that a normal player could have ever accomplished unless~]

“It’s how you’ve imagined it, it’s the work of a powerful deity. There’s no way to explain how a bunch of players could find a game-changing item such as this. Normally, you’ll have to travel through the most horrifying environment inside the world of trials. But that can easily be skipped over if the player is backed by a powerful deity, what’s more, this one grows stronger by every murder he commits,”

[He’s contracted with a harbinger of death?]

“Pretty much, that’s the reason why this player is powerful if we were to compare it with the Asura. Even though these kinds of entities don’t possess any kind of powerful skills like a deity. They do have one single ability that changes the outcome of everything, once they sacrifice the soul of their targets. These players will grow stronger than ever before, granting them even the abilities of the ones that fell in their blade,” After a few minutes have passed, his injuries were finally cured with the help of his golem

He can feel his body shifting back to its previous form as a full-size adult, He could’ve waited until he reaches his base. However, he required his body to be at its fullest potential, after he miraculously survive an attack. With the assistance of Diablos, he can finally heal his remaining injuries with a potion. Whilst he prepared to fend off his intruders

[System: You’ve finally regained your original form, due to enduring the curse for a long time. Your body has grown to be more susceptible to the flow of demonic energy coursing through your veins. The system is intrigued by a player such as yourself, that claims titles and achievements. After a long time of being mistreated as a piece of trash, you have prevailed, we wish to congratulate the player]

[Morris, there’s one thing that im quite concerned]

“What is it?”

[If you’re sure about the fact that this is the doing of the Bounty hunter you speak of, how come you’re still alive? I’ve remembered every time you mentioned that player, you were always telling me about its gruesome achievements. Isn’t it quite strange that you’re still alive if you truly were being targeted by this player?]

“Well, I did say he’s contracted with a harbinger of death right…? To be honest, those fucking entities are downright mental if you what I mean. Just remember that they’ll get turned on when they eat a soul that’s been filled with misery. Think of this act of sparing my life as a means to pull me into a miserable state,” Once he replied to his deity, he was waiting for the update of the system. After he was finally acknowledged as someone who earned their respects

[System: The status screen is now being remodeled, along with adding a few features in the mix. The player Christoper Morris is the 2nd player that has reached the point where you’re acknowledged. The update has now been completed, you may now invoke the word to call upon your status screen]

“Shall we dispose of this pest? I’d been waiting for your command by the time I heard their footstep. I wonder how long they’ll last within my power,” Diablos had a demonic grin that was slowly starting to develop a certain bloodlust. With his master’s orders along with the familiars that stood by his side, they started a bloody massacre

Whilst this was occurring a fight inside their base was racking up a ton of blood. Painting their floors, ceilings even the walls of their home, with the blood that belonged to their enemies. These past few days weren’t just used to advance to the next floor and above when they weren’t preoccupied with the trials. They were fighting against the ever-growing forces of the unknown group that called themselves the guardians

“Hot damn, I didn’t think you guys were bold enough to enter an enemy base…? Just to be clear, I’m not planning to die at this very moment. So you bunch of turds should put your strength in the swing of your weapons, im known to be kind. But if you guys are trying to piss me off and even glare at those rage-filled eyes in my direction…? Tough luck, im pretty fucking fierce when it comes to my enemies,” At the center of the battlefield were the rest of the members of a well-known party. Was raided by a dozen masked players that called themselves the guardians

Their goals were crystal clear, even a blind man could easily see through their plan to annihilate this group. However, a certain someone came in their time of need, a person bearing a gigantic hammer twice the size of its wielder. Short-tempered, Ill-mannered but a player with a heart of gold and a fierce and terrifying face. Alongside a few other players on his side, he was able to terminate the death of the outsiders
