***** Inside a dormitory room of a college. A group of friends who live their lives and pay most of their expenses by analyzing anything related to bets and tossing their wagers on every team they deemed to have a strong likelihood of winning were seated in front of a computer and their gazes were completely focused on it. They appeared incredibly serious as though they were analyzing a forex market and not betting. However, without any warning, their eyes suddenly blinked hard in unison as though they thought they had seen wrong, but then their faces became filled with shock. “This…” They couldn’t react for a brief moment, but then they gaped at each other. “Did… did I just see that someone has cast their wager on the fifth underworld king to defeat the first underworld king?” One of the boys in this group stuttered with stupefaction. “The… the person even wagered an enormous sum of $1,000,000. This… this is fcking crazy!” “Who could that person be? Are they that wealthy to e
***** Fortunately for Marcus as well, he was greatly underestimated, even way more way than Williams, so, no black-robed person was sent to his territory, instead, four captains led the intrusion, and a few more men than the ones sent to Williams’ territory. But this was a great mistake at the end of the First King. His thought was that since Williams was able to defeat Marcus and that Marcus was able to defeat the previous fourth king, usurping his kingship position, Marcus was the weakest of the five kings. Williams and Marcus of course, understood this fact, which made Marcus blush from face to face after learning about how powerful the enemies sent to Williams’ faction were, compared to his. As for his subordinates, all the traces of pride in them went down the drain after also learning that Williams’ faction had not only dealt with much more powerful enemies but that they had even done so swiftly with zero harm done to them and still had the time to come assist them. The
***** Unlike Williams’ and Marcus’ faction which had it easy, the third faction was currently having it difficult. The third king wasn’t lucky like Williams who got to his faction just when the battle was about to begin and neither was he lucky like Marcus, who got there even before the first king’s men reached his territory. The battle had already begun and many of his trusted aides had died by the time he reached his territory. Marcus had been shocked out of his wits when he got there and witnessed the corpses of his men lying on the ground, in a pool of blood. Immediately after that, he became so furious that he literally began to ooze out a massive killing intent that shocked both the enemies and friends alike. Without minding the fact that he had already suffered an internal injury, the third King rushed like a furious ferocious beast into the midst of the enemy and started a killing spree. He killed and killed and killed until he was drenched in the blood of the enemies b
***** Apart from deep agony, the face of the third king was the definition of hatred at this moment. The hatred was even beyond intense, if it were to be measured, and apart from that, his face was etched with a massive self-remorse, deep unwillingness, and a strong helplessness at this moment. He watched as his wife was about to be killed, but he was completely incapable of doing anything. That was, however, until the next moment when he suddenly felt as though time had stopped, seeing the blade that was on the verge of cutting off his wife’s neck come to an abrupt stop. The third king wasn't able to react for a moment to that, but then his heart began to beat frantically in his chest, and strong adrenaline crawled all over his skin in the blink of an eye. ‘Is this so-called god finally showing me his mercy? Did he stop time for me?’ The third king swallowed hard. Then not minding the fact that he was experiencing the greatest physical and internal torture that was on the ver
***** The members of the first faction cried out happily and some of them even made a wager on who was going to kill the highest number of the supposed weaklings before they eventually met. However, the instant the first wave of attack hit them, their faces changed greatly, and their countenance became utterly pale. It wasn’t the people whom the attack hit, rather, it was the people at the back, as the people whom the attack of the puppets hit didn’t even last one second before they fell dead from just a single hit. “This…” The faces of the three betrayals also changed greatly when they saw this unexpected scene. Perhaps, it was because of their earlier arrogance that had clouded their ability to judge, the three betrayals had failed to notice how powerful the puppets were despite the puppets not hiding their insane auras at all, but now… “This… This level of strength…” “Where are these overpowered beasts from? I refuse to believe that they are from this city!” “I… I… even mysel
***** “How could the fifth king be this arrogant?” “Did he not feel the aura being released by those two?” “Why couldn’t he just join hands together with the fourth king and take care of these two instead of arrogantly trying to take them on his own.” “Sigh… and I found him a lot likable, but to think he would… sigh…” The men of the third and fourth kings were sighing pitifully on Williams’ behalf right now. It was as though they had already foreseen his demise. Even the third king’s wife couldn’t help but fidget and urge her husband to stop Williams, since he was their life savior, however, being as he was born with an engraved arrogance, the third king was able to tell from Williams’ expression that he had already made up his mind, so, he doesn’t know what to do other than to feel greatly nervous on his behalf while giving Williams’ subject pleading look, imploring for them to stop their king from being whimsical. However, to his and everybody’s shock, Williams’ men only con
***** “Are you telling me that the ID of a new recruit, who was having his first mission suddenly gained 15,050 achievement points in less than two hours?” Inside a massive secret organization fortress that is located in the middle of nowhere, which couldn’t be found on the maps, couldn’t be found by pure luck, and couldn’t be stumbled upon. This fortress belongs to a powerful secret organization that holds an extremely scary power in Clouds Country, where Zed City is located. Although this organization isn’t known to the public and only a very few influential, and powerful know it, it is the one that has been holding and protecting Cloud Country from falling for years. Its power isn’t something that could be faced by just anybody, and even its lowest member has a strength that couldn’t be faced by a high-level member of an army. (A/N: You can use the CIA as a reference, but in this case, this particular secret organization is really a secret and barely known by a few.) This or
*****“Time to really use the increased strength,” Williams suddenly mumbled to himself after getting to the battlefield.He was in the process of channeling his strength when suddenly, he blushed slightly, why? What the system said.[Didn’t the host say that it was a waste to buy the strength?]After blushing for a second, Williams hurriedly ignored the system and then he slowly channeled out 80% of the strength.Slowly, a powerful aura that was several times stronger than the one he had released earlier oozed out of him, making everybody on the battlefield instantly become nervous for a moment.Before they had a chance to decide whether to stop and assess the formidable figure that had suddenly arrived, whether he was a friend or foe before they would know the reaction to have, Williams, unaware that the ring he had forgotten to take off was currently surveilling him, initiated his initial assault.The attack’s target was one of the several hooded figures before him, who was
