Goblins,

More Goblins,

They were everywhere,

They were two times the number of the previous.

Well, they looked angry.

“I will catch you down to shreds!” Shadarr beamed.

[ Shadarr Has Used The Skill, Goblin Resurrection And Summoning ]

“There were about ten thousand more Goblins now than last time.” Liam groaned.

“The guardians made a mistake choosing pros like you! Y'all die here! Limb by limb! You will regret coming here!”

“Erm Alex…”, Isabella whispered, “Why are you smiling?”

As Isabella pointed out, Alex appeared to be smiling.

‘Yes, I'm worried, I have a lot to worry about, the rest of the world is nowhere to be found. ’

‘Sure, there are other towers, aren't it? But that's in terms of regions and there's only one here, and it's for everyone in this region… so where did everyone go?’

“Shadarr used his resurrection skill and summoning skill…if you guys recall, Shadarr can only use his resurrection once and his summoning skill three times in a roll. After that, he is left with nothing but his stats.” Alex reasoned as he glared at Shadarr who was glaring back at him with evil intent. .

Alex laid his swords upon his right shoulder, “If we make him use that Summoning skill two more times, we only have to worry about his stats.”

“That’s right…how could I have forgotten!” Jason palmed his face.

Alex chuckled, “No worries, we spent years playing this fucker, it's normal to forget something, even vital ones ”

Olivia looked in the opposite direction and the Goblins were only pulling closer, “So what's the plan?”

“Round up these goblins and make him summon them again and again and render him useless. Shadarr is completely useless without his army, he can't fight without them.”

“The moment he loses his army, he loses power, and that's what we need.”

“Quit standing around and tear those vermin limb by limb!”

Rumble!

Rumble!

The ground cried as the goblins darted at the Bellion Guild.

Slash!

Rip!

Dismantle!

Swoosh!

The bellion guild did nothing but berate the Goblins back to the abyss!

[ Total No. Of Goblins Killed: 15,090 / 5, 085 ]

“You have got a weak army, you know, where did you get them from? Your smelly armpit?”, Jason teased as he twirled one of the daggers in his fingers.

Hundreds to thousands of goblins' corpses laid dead and the Bellion Guild hailed greatly above them. Though blood stains were prominent on them, it didn't matter.

“You lousy pros will die!”

Alex made a slight gesture to his guild and everyone started acting strangely.

They momentarily dropped their weapons and fell to the ground, acting awkwardly as though they were ultimately weak from the previous fight.

“Argh! I'm down! Guys, I can't keep going!” Olivia faked her words as she collapsed.

“Please Mr. Goblin, don't send another ten thousand goblins”, Jason begged, “We … we won't stand a chance!”

‘Shadarr only wants to kill us, he has no intention of using us as souvenirs, which alone makes it easy to get him. ’ Alex placed himself on his knee, “We will die, spare us, don't send more of your army.”

At that moment, Shadarr wore a smile of comfort.

A booming sound circulated the vicinity and ten thousand Goblins discerned onto the ground.

[ Shadarr as used summoning skill X2 ]

‘Perfect!’, Alex wore a cunning smile.

The Goblins start to close in.

Alex immediately got back up, “Take care of the Goblins, I will take on Shadarr!”

“What?! That wasn't what we discussed!” Isabella retorted.

“Well, I'm the guild captain so I can do whatever is necessary and best fit for us. Now you guys take care of the goblins, I will handle Shadarr.”

With a swift, Alex slaughters his way through the angry mob of Goblins, “I have got you where I want!”

“Ugh…what's that?!” Shadarr beamed in bewilderment as he saw a brutalizing force paving way towards him.

    I did say so many things about the game having certain changes.” Isabella walked forward a bit, “Alex defeating the goblin king erased the army.” “Doesn’t matter, the time is still ticking.” Liam groaned. “Well the goblin Queen…” Olivia paused, “She’s gone to find the Goblin King.” “If she finds him, she will find Alex…” Isabella reasoned. “Then let's get going!” Meanwhile, Alex looked around to see if there was anything else left that could have possibly caused the timer to still be active. He heaved a sigh before he set his gaze on the Goblin King Menacing Longsword. It exudes an aura of greed and envy that made Alex hesitate to approach it. He could feel it, he could sense it, the sword was no ordinary weapon, it was just in the hands of muron.

    “You aren't so clever” She made a short pause before pulling Alex closer to her, “What? Did you think we won't find out?” Alex shrugged, fear gripped his heart. “Only if you know how much your actions have cost our kind and the fate of your miserable world.” Abruptly, she drops Alex and he lands with a loud thud. Alex makes a low groan just as he hits the floor. “You’ve placed your world in absolute danger with your actions.” For a moment, Alex took a moment to think, the pain didn't matter anymore, he looked up to the angel with a puzzled look fixating on his once troubled face. “What are you trying to imply?” Alex took a stand before the Angel. “Haven’t you figured it out?” She folded her hands beneath her large divine apples. Alex gritted his teeths, “I don't have any idea what you are saying.” “Of course, you don't.” “What are you talk about for f**KS sake!

    Ring! A vibration occured in the left pocket of Alexander’s black jeans. He was walking down the street while contemplating the things that could happen if his guild found out about everything. He had had mad use of the EXP booster but he was expecting something much more valuable that a x5 EXP Booster. His mind was so busy he didn't even feel the vibration. Just then, A couple of kids ran past him, a few of them mistakenly hit Alex as they chased themselves down the footpath. Alex on the other hand was knocked back to senses as he regained his balance and tried to make up for the environment. The vibration continued and this time, Alex noticed it immediately. He brought the phone out of his pocket and went through the screen to see two missed calls from Isabella. “Isabel…” He muttered as he continued to walk down the footpath of the neighborhood.

    Sword And Space

    The instant Gaia’s eyes flared open with an unnatural light, the prison cell dissolved into chaos. Alexander barely had a moment to brace himself before the ground shifted beneath his feet. The stone walls of the dungeon bent and twisted, as if reality itself was no longer bound by the laws of nature. Gravity became fickle—pulling in one direction one moment and then reversing violently the next. Gaia, now hovering above him, was a storm of pure, unrestrained magic. The air around her crackled with raw energy as she extended her hand, and the very fabric of space folded around them. Her voice, though once familiar, now echoed with cold malice. “You are nothing but an obstacle,” she hissed, her tone devoid of the warmth he remembered. With a flick of her fingers, the ground beneath Alexander’s feet warped into an abyss. The solid stone floor seemed to collapse into itself, pulling him toward the void. Reflexively, Alexander leapt to the side, Emberbane flashing as he slashed at the sp

    Revival And Awakening

    “Hm?” Alex knocked one of the standing guards down and half-turned towards Aelia. His eyes gradually dilated and he turned completely, appearing before the cell in a blur. Thick iron bars reinforced with runes of containment loomed like an unbreakable wall. The magic was palpable in the air, an invisible force that resisted their presence. Through the dim light, Alexander caught sight of her—Gaia, the witch of space magic, and one of his closest companions. She lay still on the cold floor, her vibrant energy suppressed, her body weakened from days of magical containment. "Gaia..." Alexander’s voice was soft but resolute as he knelt by the bars, his piercing red eyes scanning for any signs of life. Her breathing was shallow, her once brilliant aura now dull and muted. Without wasting time, he summoned Emberbane and created a scabbard with it, sheathing it by his side. “The prison is enchanted,” Aelia whispered, her eyes darting over the runes etched into the walls. “No wonder her m

    Entering The Dungeon

    Alex carried Aelia again and hopped from rooftop to rooftop in a blur. It was the best way to avoid any confrontation with the guards below. He knew a fight with the guards at the dungeon’s entrance was inevitable, but there would be little to no repercussions from that. Not only would he take care of them quickly, no one would notice that the guards had been killed, since no other guard would patrol into the area. The recent guard shift made this a concrete fact. Besides, for those guards to be placed at such a volatile spot, they must be among the strongest, if not second to the Elite Guards. They got past the guards loitering the streets in over a minute and landed before the dungeon’s entrance. Alex dropped Aelia and immediately curled his hands to fists, a small smirk creeping at the side of his lips. Aside from his very short bout with Borg—the mercenary at the tavern—he hadn't gotten the chance to flex his body. And Borg was a disappointing opponent anyway. Feeling the sud

    A Glimpse Of The Forest

    There was no time to discuss it with Aelia. Alex took action immediately. He began to mumble some inaudible words under his breath whilst taking one step after the other out of the storage room. He placed his palms some distance away from each other, waving them in back and forth arcs, as though an invisible ball lay between them. The air got thick, red threads of mana sparking around him like electricity. The threads soon flourished into a dull red aura of magical energy around him. He had to keep the releases of his power to the minimum, or all eyes would instantly be on him—including the normal guards, who were weaker and less sensitive to mana auras. He could tell, his ears twitching to the constant shaking from Aelia behind him. She was already overwhelmed by such a small fragment of his full power. He continued reciting the spell in a whisper and the aura of mana around him flowed down his upper body, and up his lower body. It was as though the space between his open palms w

    A Hidden Danger.

    The two of them waited patiently for the switch to happen. Eventually, Alex had to dispel the ball of flames as the guards did a last patrol around the premises. Their infiltration had been going on pretty well now. He couldn't risk them getting caught when they were so close to the central chamber. It wasn't as though they would cause him any trouble. He knew he could take all of them, even without Emberbane, but he needed to be covert for now. If a fight were to break out and it reached Lord Varek’s ears, the warlord could change the location of the witch’s cell, since that was obviously what the intruder—Alex—was here for. No one was foolish enough to try and kill Varek without a very substantial reason. “They're coming,” Aelia whispered, her ears twitching to the vibration of the maintenance room and the trudging of incoming horses. Alex stepped away from the window, his hand finding its way around Aelia’s wrist once more, “Let's move.” The gate to the central chamber opened

    The Passage

    Aelia moved to and fro nervously before the sleeping Alex. It was almost time and he was still fast asleep. She was scared that he might lash out at her if she woke him up abruptly—a negative side effect of being a slave to Lord Varek. She had been manhandled and violated over very little mistakes. She gathered some courage after two minutes and crouched down before him. She exhaled softly and tapped him on his shoulder, “Uh... Alex. It's time.” At that very moment, Alex opened his eyes. Crimson met blue as they locked eyes. Aelia almost jumped back in fright. She didn't expect him to wake up so suddenly. Alex could read the fear in her eyes. He sighed and stood up, stretching his left hand down toward her, “Sorry for startling you.” “I-It’s fine,” she took his hand and he pulled her up without any effort. She cleared her throat afterward and began to turn off each lantern, “It's almost time for the guards to switch. We still have about fifteen minutes, but it would take us over

    The Middle Ring.

    Alex made sure to exhaust the hell out of Liora by walking around the inner city aimlessly. She wanted to act strong at first, but after walking for an extra two hours, fatigue and thirst began to kick in. She spotted a nearby tavern and suggested that they had some rest there. Alex was in no way tired. He could keep going for days without food or water without faltering, but he agreed anyway. At least… She thought he did. In the brief moment that she turned to look at the tavern, he cast an illusion spell, creating an exact replica of himself close to her, while his real self blended with the darkness of the nearby alley. He was gone. His replica would only last for an hour or so, since he didn't put much magic essence into the spell. He had to reserve his power for his battle against Varek. Liora noticed a slight distortion in Alex's replica’s countenance, but she was too tired to give it any thought. It wasn't as though she could read him in the first place anyway. After havin

    No longer Needed.

    The mercenary squeezed his fists, “You're fodder, red eyes. I was only trying to warn you so you wouldn't do anything stupid. But it would seem I would have to beat some sense into you.” Alex couldn't help it at that point. With his head still cocked to the left, he grinned. Slowly unsheathing his axe, the mercenary announced, “By the way, the name's Borg. You should at least know the name of the man that wipes that stupid grin off your face.” Alex stretched his right hand to the side, “Borg… I'll try to remember that.” Space rippled by his right palm, cracking ever so slightly that nether and dark energies leaked out in a very small quantity, creating this red-black bubble of energies. He grabbed something within this bubble and pulled out a long broadsword. The flux of energies was immediately sucked in and space repaired itself. Gently, and with much care, Alex placed the tip of the sword on the floor, sending a slight tremor across the tavern and the surrounding areas. The b

    The Tavern Part 2

    After cursing him a few more times internally, Liora turned to look at the tavern, and without looking at the placard above, she could already tell its name. “The Broken Shield? Why are we here?” she quizzed with a raised brow. Before Alex could respond—not like he planned to anyway—she quickly added with a slight frown, “Seriously? Beer at this hour? How do you expect to sell your stuff with clear eyes when you're drunk?” For the first time in a while, Alex took a glance at her. In that very moment, he imagined conjuring a big cog and shoving it into her mouth. She was too loud for him. He retracted his gaze without saying a word and made his way up the short flight of stairs that led to the tavern. Liora's brows twitched, but she had no choice than to follow him. Though, at the back of her mind, she strongly fought against disregarding her superior’s orders to escort Alex. She wanted to at least stab him through the leg. By the time she entered the tavern, Alex was alread
