Chronicle Of Darkness: The Evil Player Ascension

Player Kill

Celine was sociable with everyone, she is beautiful but that did not make her to act hard to get instead she conversed freely with everyone, especially Daemon.

Nevertheless, Daemon wasn't that focused on her than he was on the other guys.

There was something he felt from them, they don't even look trustworthy to start with in the first place but levelling up was more crucial to Daemon than to trust this guys.

...

[You have entered a Grade F Dungeon.]

Not just Daemon but everyone else received this notification as soon as they walked into this dungeon.

It was a large retail outlet which has been infiltrated by monsters, from the looks of it, the party was asked by the owner of the place to clear the dungeon.

Immediately they stepped in, the first monster appeared, it was a goblin.

[Goblin] [Level 5]

[HP 50/50]

Only monsters who can use magic will display a MP stat.

And immediately it appeared, the leader of the party took out his sword and charged at the goblin with the agility of level 2 player that he was.

He used the sword to attack the goblin, the goblin gave a loud cry which in turn drew the attention of the other goblins inside the dungeon.

Screech~

With a loud screech, the retail outlet was now filled with goblins most of them even took with them items such as knifes, swords and steel pipes.

"Great" Daemon let out, he was a warlock but he posses a divine grade sword.

He took it out from his inventory and attacked the goblins with it ensuring that each goblins he focused on will be slayed.

[You have slayed GOBLIN | Exp +200]

[You have slayed GOBLIN | Exp +300]

....

[Level up]

He went on a killing spree on the goblins.

The speed at which he slayed the goblins was more than everyone else combined.

Other players wondered if he was really a magic class player or a warrior class player because never for once has be used magic, all his kills were from the sword which was sparkling each time a goblin was slayed.

Much like the blood of the goblins was a special enhancer for the sword.

[Mayhem Blade hidden skill "Glitter" has been unlocked]

[You have learnt a skill "Four strike master."]

[Glitter: Only works with the mayhem Blade; One soul taken will increase the attack power of the sword to kill the other and each time it releases a spark, seven souls will be taken regardless of race]

[Four strike master: Only works with bladed weapons, At every four strikes, the last strike will have 60% chance being a critical attack]

[Evil Cultivation system: The number of monster you have slayed has increased your cultivation.]

'My Cultivation in the real world is increasing as well as my Level in-game, this is good.'

Most systems prepare their host from dangers that are lurking in the air world for example an apocalypse but there is no such thing as apocalypse in this world.

Beside the system helping him level up In-game and helping him implement his revenge plans, Daemon just have this thinking that there is something that awaits him in the future and no matter what it is, he must be strong enough to help himself.

He don't have love ones, his parents are siblings took him as someone who had no other ambitions apart from becoming a sell known gamer, because of this they sent him out of the house when he was only fifteen with a measly amount of cash to carter for himself.

Nevertheless he got lucky back then when he was giving a contract to be a beta tester for a new video game that was about to be released.

From that moment, his life as a gamer changed from being an ordinary gaming maniac to a wealthy and famous gamer.

Of course his identity was hidden thus no one virtual reality games were able to tell who he was.

...

For thirty minutes the party kept having the upper hand over the goblins.

Daemon became the top player in the party contribution ranking, with over 66.7% contribution out of 100%.

His dominance on the goblins and his extraordinary sword made the other players jealous.

He could have hidden his weapon if he wanted to, but of what use will that be? should he just hide his trump card and watch the other players farm experience?

Of course not!

he joined this party in the first place just because he wanted to earn experience to level up as much as he could therefore hiding wasn't an option.

[You have slayed GOBLIN | Exp +150]

[You have slayed GOBLIN | Exp +270]

The more he levelled up the more the experience earned kept decreasing.

The leader whispered something into the ears of one of them and the latter nodded.

Another thirty minutes have passed, more than 50+ goblin have been slayed till there was no longer any goblins coming out of the dungeon anymore.

The only thing remaining for the dungeon to be completely cleared was to take down the boss which was making its entrance right now.

Boom!

Boom!

Following each footsteps was the shaking of the who place.

screech~

It was a very loud screech let out by the dungeon boss.

[Giant goblin] [Dungeon boss.] [Level 37]

[HP: 7700] [MP 7000]

It was a gigantic goblin with the same features as the other goblins except that it was gigantic, could use magic and also held a large axe with him.

"Level 37? How did this dungeon get an E when it has monsters that are Level 50+? It's completely insane."

"But the smaller ones are only level 5, the highest level I've fought was only a level 8, but the boss is afreaking level 37,at this rate, it's only great if one of us survives."

"All of it! I'm only at level 4."

"My level is 5."

In the fight between them and the smaller goblins, Celine's MP reserve was the best among magic users, excluding Daemon, who was Level 7 at the time and his MP had increased from 100 to 700, surpassing Celine's 300 because she was only a level 4.

"The only way we can survive is to work together."

The leader said, he was holding sword and shield and was the only level 6 in the party. Daemon is only one level higher.

"Let's go with the WM formations; all warrior classes should attack alongside me, with magic users providing support from behind."

"What a brilliant idea!"

They didn't have time to plan any further because the goblin let out a furious screech that sounded like he was saying, "Hey, stop ignoring me."

The warrior class, particularly the swordmen and berserkers, attacked it from various angles.

Nonetheless, comparing their speed and strength to the goblin was like comparing worms to pythons; the difference was too great.

"Pierce." The leader used his sword skill to target one of the legs.

Another player targeted the leg as well as other parts of the body.

Other players from the magic class summoned various attacks against the goblin, such as fire balls and ice spears.

The giant goblin was hit by the magical attacks.

[-400]

Only four hundred HP were taken away from its maximum HP of 7700.

"Goddess of Light, give these warriors the strength to defeat their foes..." Celine also chanted her spell, but only one player was idle and didn't use any of his energy for the other, and that player was none other than Daemon.

'Yeah, fight as much as you can but don't die, just let me kill you,' he thought as he looked around the battle field, watching the other players fight with everything they had against the giant goblin.

His gaze was drawn to the three warrior class users, including the leader, who were about to strike the goblin.

However, before their weapons could reach it, dark energies began to spread and pushed them away.

Because the location was only a retail outlet, all of the warrior class who were nearby were pushed away and clashed against the walls.

Most of you are probably wondering what happened to all of the merchandise inside the store. Simply put, the goblins ate them and destroyed most of the storage furniture to use as weapons.

[One party member has died | There are currently 7 party members]

Even with Celine's healing bluff, one of the warrior class players was killed by the impact.

"In this fight, only magic users have the greatest advantage of killing the goblin, even though it's just bit by bit."

Daemon has observed the fighting style of the giant goblin and has gotten an epiphany from it.

"Flame Ball."

He used ten flame balls at once.

[-210]

As he used ten flame balls consecutively, he had to wait for 20 before he could release another.

At level one, his MP would have been diminished. He would have had to wait for thirty seconds before his MP would be restored. At level one, he would most likely wait for five minutes to get his MP back to max.

Screech

The giant goblin was enraged. Out of the other players who used magic, Daemon's seemed to be the strongest, and it infuriated it.

It is natural, though, because he's literally the strongest in the party, both in terms of magic and warrior type.

If placed in a battle with all of the party members, it will be 80% possible that he will defeat all of them with just his sword, the Mayhem sword.

The goblin, for the first time, charged at his adversary.

Each time a step is taken, the whole retail outlet will shake.

"He is the one with that sword. Let's help me. We can let him die."

The other players referred to him as the one with that sword or the one with a sword.

Because they are parties, useful information such as names and IDs are not displayed.

"Ice spear."

"Fire ball."

"Pierce."

"Goddess of light..."

No one wants to die without seeing everything through to the end, so they charged at the goblin, putting their life behind and only trying to see the better side instead of the good side.

Boom

Pa

Cling

All of their attacks made different sounds when they met with the goblin.

For some reason, they all wanted to ensure the safety of Daemon.

It was a feeling that escaped their hearts, as if they were about to witness someone die in real life, not just anyone, but someone close to them.

But why was that the case?

No one knew; they just followed their hearts for no apparent reason, as if it were controlling them.

[-1200] [𝗖𝗥𝗜𝗧𝗜𝗖𝗔𝗟 𝗛𝗜𝗧.]

All of their attacks combined for a critical hit, lowering the goblin's HP bar.

Boom~

"Ahhhh~"

"WTF...."

Except for Daemon and Celine, all of the players were hit by flame balls.

After fighting the giant goblin, most of them had only a few HP left.

Several flame balls collided with the other players, killing them.

Only Daemon, Celine, and the goblins remained alive inside the dungeon.

The other players are gone; after being killed by the flame balls, they turned into tiny specks of light and then vanished.

The game system will automatically log them out of the game as soon as they die.

If a player dies or logs out, they will have to wait 6 hours in the real world (12 hours in-game) before they can log back in.

[You killed 6 players, but EXP will not be awarded because the players were not hostile to you.]

[Evil Cultivation System: You've killed 6 players]

[Side quest.]

Player kill one thousand players. [6/1000]
