Legacy of the Betelgeuse

Chapter 219 - [300 PS Bonus ]Episode 219: The Fall Of An Empire. (1)

Diamond and Lothair are looking at their clan members that can open a portal. Diamond is pointing his finger at the citizens of the Eluna Empire.

"Open a portal for them and bring them out from the capital city! We are going to fight Trevor and Krestan, so this will make a lot of mess! Hurry up!"

Lothair is also ordering his members to do the same thing, and they're all running away to escort all the citizens from the capital city. As they both order their clan members, the rest of the players are already charging toward Trevor and Krestan. They thought that they have become stronger than back then, and they're confident with themselves that they forgot the terror and the pain they had when they fought Trevor, but that confidence is gone in less than a second when Trevor swings his scythe towards them and their screens turn black and white.

Arrows and spells are shot toward Trevor, and same as before, they're confident they could defeat him this time, but they forgot that Krestan is there with him, and so he cast a spell and blocks all the projectiles attack. A barrier that looks like a dome protecting the two of them from any kind of range attacks. They're not giving up and keep firing their arrows and magic spells at them, and as expected, the barrier is cracking and it's about to break.

They're firing their arrows and spells, but then something comes out beside Trevor, it's his Amruchi, and his Amruchi flies and looks at them. One of the players is pointing his finger at the Amruchi, and orders some of them to fire their arrows and spells at him. When they fire their arrows and spells at him, he doesn't move and just floats in the sky, and when the arrows and spells hit him, it does nothing, and the arrows and spells just pass through his body. They're surprised and confused at the same time, but then his body releases a mist and dives down toward the players. All the players that get hit by him are frozen and taking tick damage, and when the others try to unfroze them, he bites the players and their bodies are shattered and crumbled to the ground.

The players that are in the front line are looking back at the players in the backline getting slaughtered by the Amruchi, but then laughter can be heard from behind them, and when they want to turn their heads, their visions become black and white with a notification appears on their screen saying that they're dead.

Trevor is making his way to the middle of the crowded players and killing the players that blocking his path with his scythe, then he jumps as high as possible and throws his scythe to the ground. Dozens of people are bounded by shadow hands that appear from the ground, and then spikes pierce their bodied from the bottom and dozens of shadows of a scythe cut their bodies relentlessly and mercilessly.

Trevor unwraps his chained sickles and starts swinging them down where he will land and kill a group of players in an instant. For the 1st generation players, they're not surprised about it and they know exactly with who they're dealing with, but for the 2nd generation players, they look at Trevor with disbelief and have no idea what is happening and how can a player kill a group of players so easily. He breaks shields like it's made from a piece of paper, he kills high level players like a newbie who just started playing the game, he dodges the players' attacks like he's dancing. They know he's not someone to admire because of what he did, but they can't help but do so because of how amazing Trevor is and how can he smile so brightly with excitement when he knows that he's surrounded by millions of players.

Trevor walks toward his scythe and he looks at the players while smirking. He throws his scythe like a boomerang toward the players, and as expected, his scythe is cutting players' bodies and killing them while the scythe is flying around and almost making a 360. Trevor swings his chained sickles and pulls them to his back, but then he blinks toward his scythe is at while the sickles are flying toward him and killing the players that blocking its path.

Everyone is too busy handling Trevor and his Amruchi that they forgot there's another threat they have to take care of. Bolts of lightning that strike the players, waves of flames that wipe the players, ice spikes and earth spikes that pierce through players, and the winds that cut players' armors and bodies while lifting them up from the ground and send them into the sky.

Both Trevor and Krestan, they're enjoying the battle like a feast. The more they kill, the more excited and thrilled they are and it makes the player's morale goes down. They start thinking if it's even necessary for them to fight them and if there's really a chance for them to win against those two, but the moment they start questioning themselves, a group of NPCs wearing a different armor than the soldiers they saw before walking past them. They're all looking at those NPCs and they can tell in a glimpse that they're strong.

Their morale starts to rise again. The players are backing off for a bit to catch a breath while letting the soldiers handle the three of them. Trevor and Krestan with Trevor's Amruchi are backing away and while looking at the soldiers. Trevor and Krestan are looking at each other while whispering at each other. The players think that both Trevor and Krestan are starting to feel cautious and nervous when they see the soldiers, but then they both start to smile and look at the soldiers while readying their stances.

Trevor is swinging his chained sickles, but then a dark red aura is released from his body, and even though the players have no idea what kind of aura that is, they know it's his murderous intent and his thirst for blood. They're not wrong because Trevor just activated his [Bloodbath] skill that he has been stacking up after killing hundreds of players and not just that but Krestan is also doing something towards Trevor's chained sickles. A spark of lightning is imbued to his sickles and it really looks terrifying.

Trevor smirks and looks at the soldiers and he immediately leaps toward them while whipping his sickles at the soldiers. The soldiers manage to block his attack and it really surprises them and they think with the soldiers on their side, they can win this battle, but then one of the soldiers falls to the ground and his whole body stiffens like a statue. Trevors throws another attack and the armor that looks solid just breaks so easily, then they realize that nothing has changed.

In the end, the soldiers get defeated easily and the players are looking at Trevor with disbelief. Trevor is looking at the players and swinging his chained sickles and mockingly smirks at them.

"Is that all you got? I managed to kill your emperor without breaking a sweat, and I thought you all would be able to avenge the death of your emperor, but now, after I look at all of you here can do nothing about it and how pathetic you all are makes me realize how easy it is for me to do whatever I want. You're all just nothing but a big mouth, huh?"

Everyone is clenching their weapons so tightly while glaring at him with hatred and anger, but then the ground starts shaking and a gigantic monster appears out of nowhere. Hundreds of monsters are also spawning and it really surprises everyone, then another gigantic monster that everyone knows appears, it's Sulrk and it walks past the players with its trident in his hand. A guy is walking next to Sulrk while staring at Trevor.

"Now you all know who he truly is! Do you think I'm the bad guy here? Now you all have seen it yourself, you should understand what I said back then! He has proven himself that he's rotten to the core, and there's no excuse for what he did."

Trevor is tilting his head and scoffs.

"Oh, you're back? I thought you stop playing after everything that happened."

Aksevel is scoffing and looking at Trevor mockingly.

"Say whatever you want, Trevor. You're going down."

Aksevel then looks at the players.

"What are you all doing?! Do you think he's a normal player? You should have known that after he killed the emperor, and he's prepared for this. You all don't have to worry because all the soldiers will be here soon and not just them. We defeat this guy, and I'm sure that there will be plenty of rewards for us! So don't whine and start fighting!"

As soon as Aksevel said that, a VoW appears in the sky.

Aksevel laughs and looks at the players.

"So? What you say?"

Aspen is sipping his tea while chuckling.

"How does it feel to go against the system?"
