Beyond the Eternity

Chapter 89: Secret Room/세계 (6)



In addition, the temperature seemed to have increased a few degrees. It was not a natural phenomenon but one born from the Territory Lord\'s anger. Of course, this world was created by the Territory Master so it\'s natural that it would respond according to his will and subconsciousness.

And that person, Ollerus Izzard, was glaring at a certain someone like an arrogant king whose subjects refused to obey him.

At the moment, I couldn\'t help but think he looked an overheated kettle.

"You bastard, do you know what you have done?"

"Hmm. And what exactly did I do wrong, your Majesty? Or could it be that was the limit of your power?"

Shin Joonkyung\'s sadistic tone seemed to irritate Ollerus Izzard even more. More importantly, he said something rather interesting.

Limit of his power? So there was a limited amount of times he could use [Commands], which was the authority of the Territory Master.

Let\'s go through everything I know...

\'Command\' is an authority of the Territory Master that can be used to bring about change in his Territory. If the Territory was referred to as a game board, then the Territory Masters could alter that game board as he wished. But Ollerus Izzard was not a complete Territory Master.

He became a Territory Master through the use of the World card, which was made by the <Administration Buseau> to create something similar to a Territory Master. As a result, Ollerus Izzard became a Half-Lord. Therefore, he only possessed half of its benefits. He was just like the Library Keeper whose territory was treated as a hidden dungeon.

Both could not kill the players with his words directly. Both had to use indirect methods to attacks. And lastly, both possessed some kind of trigger before they could use commands.

The Trigger of the Library Keeper was stabbing needles into his neck. As for this guy, his Trigger was the cracking of the fingers.

The aim behind those actions was to inflict self pain to maintain focus. But it seems Ollerus can only it a limited amount of times. The question was how many times could he use it.

"Hmm, It seems you have discovered my weakness. But what of it? What exactly do you hope to do with that information? You think knowing the limit of my power will somehow save you? Such hubris. I shall start by destorying that Illusion."

Ollerus smirked with his voice dripping with disdain and proceeded to crack one of his fingers. That was the fourth time.

[The character \'Ollerus Izzard\' has used World Revelation.]

"There has always been a hidden rifle within my sleeves. That has always been the case. Of course, the gun has already been enchanted by a Great Magician. Therefore, the bullets can be fired simultaneously and cannot exhausted."

As Ollerus gently waved his hand, a hidden rifle appeared within his sleeves. It was difficult to see from my position but it was certainly a gun with a strange projectile.

Of course, that bastard smiled and the trigger was squeezed. What followed afterwards was the sound of gunpowder exploding.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

Several bullets slammed into the flesh and Shin Joonkyung, who was the target of Ollerus hatred and resentment, was blown away. The survivors nervously turned their head and saw that person lying on the ground, groaning in pain.

The destructiveness of bullets was easier to understand. But what about its speed? It was completely different from the bullets shot by that fake Ollerus. Shin Joonkyung had tried to dodge but he was still hit regardless. In fact, the bullets didn\'t seem to have traveled and just hit the areas where Ollerus had aimed the hidden rifle.

How exactly was that fair?

[The constellations are excited by the unfolding violence.]

[A few constellations are complaining by the absurd difficulty.]

Aren\'t the constellations rather useless? They could only watch and do nothing. Or was it that they loved the violence?

[A few constellations are asking why you\'re not doing anything.]

Shut up. If I could do something, I would have done it a long time ago. But staying here, hung up in the air, was not an option either.

"..."

Upon noticing the terrified expressions of survivors, Ollerus Izzard revealed a satisfying smile.

"Naturally, it\'s inevitable that you all would be shocked upon witnessing the true power of The World. But, don\'t get killed too easily. I\'ll be rather disappointed if you died that easily. That cocky attitude of your from five seconds ago can\'t be forgiven even if you died 10,000 times."

Crack!

There was the cracking of the finger, followed by the command sequence as he looked at the girls standing behind him.

"What are you waiting for? Can\'t you see your king is being attacked? All assigned pieces come forward and defeat my enemies."

[The character \'Ollerus Izzard\' has used World Revelation.]

"...!"

The girls\' head twitched as if a programming has been forcefully installed inside their heads. Then they came forward with their various assigned weapons.

Swords, Spears, Shields and Crossbows. It seemed they were given weapons according to their chess pieces.

"Attack!"

A single word was all it took. The girls lunged out and entered the players\' space at once. Naturally, they started hitting the players one by one.

"Argghh!"

"What the hell? Why are they so strong?"

"Damnit, everyone fight back!"

Even so, the Anti-World King Alliance did not back down. Apart from the Temperance, there were two other king candidates that would not be easily defeated.

Boom!

A loud explosion rang out and several of those girls were blown away with immense force.

The one responsible was an old man whose hair has already gone gray.

"Tck! What\'s up with these children these days? No respect for their elders."

Kim Yeonwoo. He\'s the representative of the Sorcerer group and his Arcana was [Magician] which allowed to wield the power of the Four Elements. Of course, his speciality was \'Fire\'.

Kwang! Kwang! Crack!

The sounds of bones breaking was heard. I turned my head and... Well, what am I supposed to say? It was a ridiculous sight to be honest.

The Sookmyung School Girls were rapidly being sent flying through the air like a broken kite.

They were being hit by someone with tremendous physical strength. To be precise, It was a petite girl that sent them flying away with powerful punches.

"Hehehe! Isn\'t this rather fun? It\'s disappointing that they don\'t scream when you hit them."

She looked around with a wide look and pounced on her next target. The unfortunate girls that were hit by her looked as if they were hit by a cannon.

Kim Eunji. She\'s leader of the Power group and her Arcana was [Strength]. Her card ability itself was self explanatory. But why did her group only contain Body Builders that were Buffed to the maximum?

In any case, as long as those two were in the Anti-World King Alliance, we should be able to endure. Not to mention, their chosen constellations possess rather considerable status as well.

Wait, what\'s this? It felt like I had obtained the role of a narrator.

Suddenly, I heard the voice of Lee Dokho through private communication.

—Deputy-nim, do you need help?

—If I said \'Yes\', how would you reach me?"

—Well, that\'s easy. Kagura-ssi can jump up there and bring you down.

—What If I float back here again?

—Ah, T-That...

There was also a possibility that I would float back here If I somehow manage to escape my current predicament.

But the most troublesome thing was landing itself. Even if It was Kagura, she would receive damage if falls from this height especially when all her stats has been restricted.

More importantly, It seems the enemy side was gaining momentum. But it was not because the enemy side were getting stronger.

"W-What? What the hell is happening?"

"Those girls can resurrect?!"

"Damnit, are they some kind of zombie or something?"

The survivors freaked out when the Sookmyung girls that were killed suddenly began to rise up from the ground with their wounds completely healed.

All the players had their stats restricted to [Lv. 10]. Those girls should be also included considering that Ollerus\' stats were restricted as well.

But what happens when those girls can resurrect upon being killed?

I subconsciously recalled the words of the fake Ollerus from that time.

Even if they somehow die, I can always repair damaged goods.

Don\'t you know? Even something like resurrection or life creation is not impossible in this place. In fact, that girl besides you had died more than once.

"Tck."

I clicked my tongue once.

I narrowed my gaze at Ollerus who was watching the scene with two girls beside him on each side.

As long as that person was in control of this World, he could resurrect those girls as many times as he wished. In fact, I even saw an authority called Mana Supply in his status window.

—Deputy-nim, are you seeing this?

—Yeah, I know. We have to take care of that guy first.

—But how thought? Even if we somehow managed to break through, there are still two of those girls and they seem stronger than the rest. Not to mention, that \'guy\' has that gun.

—Actually, we don\'t have to do anything.

—Huh? What do you mean?

I was not worried.

—Have you forgotten? There\'s still another king that hasn\'t revealed himself.

—Wait, you don\'t mean...

Yes. Even though I have prepared for this encounter, there was someone else that was more prepared than me. Someone who spend the revelations and manipulated the scenario to his advantage.

Tap! Tap! Tap!

A cloaked figure was seen running towards the World. He approached the king candidate with no weapons whatsoever. A suicidal tactic?

"Who\'s this clown? Begone from my sight."

Ollerus swung his right hand and the trigger was pulled at the same time.

Bam! Bam! Bam!

The cloaked figure\'s body was pierced several times and blood was drawn. He collapsed when his head was pierced.

Ollerus titled his head as if he could not understand. "This guy... Why did he throw away his life like that?"

You idiot, he did not throw away his life. Can\'t you see that thing is a puppet?

Pak!

At that moment, the body of the ruined puppet suddenly exploded and smoke immediately filled the surroundings.

...How interesting. So that was his plan?

I focused on the black shadows silently moving through the smokescreen. They were the precious subordinates of the King candidates.

"What? What\'s going on?"

"My cards! Someone stole my cards!"

The Temperance, the Magician, the Strength. All of them were betrayed and hit by someone. In fact, even the King of the World was stabbed in the back.

"Ugh! You Imposters!"

Ollerus tried to shoot the two girls that had stabbed him into the back. But those girls smacked the back of his head and knocked him unconscious before he could swing his hand.

Eventually, the arcane cards of the King candidates were gathered in the hands of one person.

"I bet you losers weren\'t expecting this kind of plot twist."

A white haired man laughed maniacally and stood on the king\'s throne. He looked around his early twenties and his eyes were crimson as blood.

Surely, that person couldn\'t be the true reader, right?

....I wasn\'t expecting a Chuunibyou

The Ten Arcane cards floated in the air and began to glow.

[The Devil Park Joonhyuk has discovered a Hidden Piece.]

[The Ten Arcane cards will be sacrificed to summon a new item.]

[The Devil Park Joonhyuk has summoned the Yellow Dragon Sword.]

In the end, the Devil Park Joonhyuk became the master of the Yellow Dragon Sword.
