Author's Note: Sorry, I had to interrupt, but since there will be two Cyrus and there might be confusion, we'll be referring to the bad one as Dark Cyrus and Replica.However, that wasn't his worry anymore when he saw the face of his enemy; he stumbled backwards. It was a replica of Cyrus.{Enemy: Yourself}{The Trial has begun}-{King of Rebirth: Dark Cyrus}Still not believing what he was seeing, Cyrus stared at the direct replica of himself. Of course, he had expected the trial to be something hard but to think of this.This wasn't on his list of a hundred expectations.'No telling, he won't hold back, and if he doesn't... I'm dead'Still not talking, Dark Cyrus returned the stare to Cyrus, his eyes oozed out purple dark glow and KaBoom.'He's coming in hot'It was assumed to be instant teleportation because the moment Dark Cyrus had dashed at Cyrus, a single step covered the distance and DK Cy slashed his dagger.Causing Cyrus to jump out of the way as the dagger slid to the right
Cyrus appeared out of nowhere and lacerated the head of the bastard, blood gushing out on the ruined ground and the head rolling down.-{Skill Activated: God Image}Gradually, the body began turning to particles of blue dusts. Cy on the other was awaiting one thing.-{Congratulations, You Have gained maximum expression of the one you defeated}-{Enemy: 1, 500}-{Previous strength, magic, speed, attack, intelligence and skill: 2, 000}-{Current: 3, 500}Cy's eyes widened, to think the system would give him the stats and not split it like it did with Mongrel, was unthinkable.'I was even stronger than the bastard, guess I need to work more on my attacks'-{Alert: You have gained the Skill: Instant Rebirth}Seeing this, Cyrus had one thought. Debating if he should try it out to see if the skill has really come back.But that would be like the most foolish way to die if it turns out to be fake. However, the screen had never been wrong before.He glanced at it few more times and slid to th
Cyrus and the four remaining S-rank skill users walked along the cave-like structure. Overall, the four behind him were already having similar thoughts.Although not able to convey it through words, their stare at each other alone was evidence of their common thoughts.And that was to ambush Cyrus or find any means to work as a team and kill Cy, the motherfucking bastard."We've been walking for hours now, why don't we take a break, boss?" Falco said the last word while sounding as if someone was forcing him to say something he never wanted. However, Cyrus didn't answer him."Look, I'm gonna sit for some minutes while you guys go ahead." The slender one voiced out and sat on the floor while leaning against the cave wall. Causing Cy's step to alter.The moment Cyrus was about turning around, the bastard stood up gritting his teeth. 'What's his deal,' thought the slender with disdain."When the angels arrive, I want you to conceal our demon presence but sell him out." Falco whispered, b
On a long table of King Loki's castle, various types of meals could be seen from the end to its rear. While the four demons who accompanied Cyrus were busy lavishing the meal.Cy was sitting and staring at Loki who wouldn't stop staring back at him. Constantly, Loki would switch his eyes between Cyrus and Sylvia.After some few stares, he abruptly formed a question from thin air. "Do you guys know each other?""Yes, King Loki," said Sylvia.Loki's eyes widened in joy as he asked another abrupt, yet stupid question. "Do you guys love each other?"Cyrus stared at Sylvia; the girl quickly drove her eyes away from his. "No, Cyrus is just here because of Demon King Barnas.""Ha, oh yes, almost forgot. So how do I know he's not some weakling?" Loki said that and leaned forward towards Cyrus."I get the feeling he's a bad guy, a terrible one that kills a lot."For that statement, Cyrus was forced to form a smile at his lips. Seeing how Cyrus was staring emotionless at Loki, Sylvia jumped in.
However, the unexpected and the most shocking thing, all except Sylvia had witnessed, was about to happen.Sylvia smirked.- {The Player Has been killed by Loki}Cy's heart, on the other hand, had stopped pumping blood. However, after a second, Falco's eyes flared more as he stumbled backwards.Ba-thump' Ba-thump Ba-thump Ba-thumpCy's heart began beating faster, and slowly he stood up, staring at Loki with a lifeless gaze.- [You have gained minimum experience of the one who killed you}- [Your Rebirth has gained you no strength]At this moment, everywhere and everyone was quiet, all staring at Cyrus and Loki. King Loki, on the other hand, was shocked, wondering if Cyrus had Immortality.Cyrus was expecting something else; he was waiting for the system's order to kill Loki. But it wasn't coming at all.'Does the quest only appear when the enemy has a high hostility?'Loki stepped forward and stopped a few feet apart from Cyrus. He was about to say something, but Cyrus cut in."You
Loki and Sylvia, accompanied by the three demons, stood on top of the castle wall. Far from them, they could see a battalion of monsters pouring out from what seems to be a purple gate."Sir, we checked the whole castle; he's not inside," said a knight, precisely referring to the unseen Cyrus.Falco couldn't help but smirk, thinking Cyrus must have chickened out. He wasn't expecting much from Cy to begin with."It's normal, King Loki. He always hides whenever things get rough, but," Falco stepped forward but was stopped six feet away from the young king."I can lead your army in battle, and I'll defeat Demon King Barnas myself. All you have to do in return is give me half of your kingdom and let the angels and demons know it was I, Falco, who-""Enough," said Sylvia. At this point, she felt disgusted hearing the gibberish he was saying. She knows the army was no match for Loki; all the young king was scared of is Demon King Barnas."Hmph," Falco scoffed, feeling embarrassed."We can't
Knights (angels) standing side by side wielding weapons ranging from axes, swords, and shields were spotted facing off against battalions of demons.Overall, these ferocious demons couldn't hold the urge to gnash their heads. Relentlessly, they would smash their weapons against the purple force-field separating them from the angels.Bam'The ground cracked and shook once more as a black eater ran itself against the force field."You doing fine?" asked one of the knights without a helmet.The latter beside him with a helmet slightly gave a nod. Although he had leather gloves on, one could tell he was feeling sweaty and anxious."Yes, captain. I just hope we make it out alive.""We will. Once the battle starts, King Loki has the skill to kill all of them by just saying it. But for so many demons, the effect will need time to manifest," the captain informed, while the others behind him were a bit relieved to get this piece of information.Bam'"So we just need to buy him time and protect
Within the ruined surface of the demon area, Sylvia and the rest prisoners were shoved by the instant kill demons.From left and right sides, they could see demon orcs and black eaters staring viciously at them. Overall, up ahead was a demon king adorned in tattered clothing and a goat skull mask with long horns.Demon King Barnas watched them come forward, his hands placed beside his cheek as if bored of their meaningless existence.Thud'They abruptly stopped a few inches from the six broad stairs leading to demon king Barnas. Some of them shivering and fidgeting."Humans and demons teaming up," sneered Barnas, staring at Sylvia and Falco, which caused Falco to shiver more.'Damnit, he has blown our cover. Even if I survive this, there's no way I'm going back home alive,' thought Falco.Lofting his demonic palm, Sylvia was enveloped in a red aura and seen floating towards demon king Barnas, only a hairsbreadth from his demonic eyes she stopped."Tell me, is it true killing the young
