My King System

Chapter 192 - WD

"Good morning," said Avila as she yawned while waking up from her slumber to see both Scar and Yuki sitting down with their backs against each of the walls as they just stared at each other. 

"Are you two having a staring contest or something," Avila asked. 

"In fact we are. I've managed to win a tremendous 17 times," said Scar as he replied to Avila without taking his eyes off of Yuki. 

"That's wonderful. So how many times did he win?" Avila asked as she referred to Yuki. 

"Well... Yuki has won 43,'' said Scar as he turned towards Avila while unknowingly blinking himself. 

...

"44?" Avila asked which Scar replied to with a face that looked to be fuming with anger before suddenly calming down. and letting out a little laugh. 

"I can't believe that you would be so engrossed in a kids game. I expected more from the person who wishes to reach level 100 first," said Scar as he mocked Yuki. 

"Weren't you the one who suggested we play this until Avila woke up? Don't be a sore loser," said Yuki as he stood up from the ground. 

"Wow, you two should seriously consider switching ages," said Avila with a disappointed face towards Scar. 

"I've been meaning to ask you though, why did you change your ability? Weren't you making a lot of silver from using it?" Yuki asked Scar. 

"Well, I guess that's true but as time went on I realized that I couldn't defeat the dungeon monsters without my ability. So I had no choice but to change it into one which can be used in dungeons. Right after I changed it, dungeon clearing became surprisingly easy," said Scar. 

"Surprisingly easy? An ability shouldn't have that much of an effect on your strength," said Yuki. 

"Wait, don't tell me that you've actually been using your flame powers in every dungeon so far," said Scar as he thought that Yuki was joking. 

"Yes I have. Is there something wrong with that?" Yuki asked. 

"Of course there is! An ability can determine if you live or die. In dungeons, it's much more forgiving since you can change your ability to be that which defeats your enemy. With every dungeon having a specific trait through all its monsters, if you pick the right ability, you could be out of a dungeon in less than a week," said Scar as he was both angry and surprised. 

"How could you not know that?! You used to be one of the strongest if not the strongest player in this world while also being a solo player. How could someone of that class fall to realize the most basic of information," Scar continued. 

"There's no need to yell, I'll keep your advice in mind for the future," said Yuki as he tried to make Scar stop yelling. 

"Keep it in mind for the future?! You better start taking things more seriously. Becoming the first level 100 player won't be easy, and it would become impossible if you don't start looking for the most efficient ways of doing things. You said that you had a dream so start working as hard as possible to make that dream a reality," Scar finished scolding Yuki. 

"Forget what I said about switching ages, you two can become mature and immature within a blink of an eye," said Avila who had just watched as this took place. 

"Okay then. I know you said you wanted to start training as soon as possible but I have a better offer. There's a group which is more of a whole clan that does by the name of 'WD' or the real name being simply 'World Domination'. They're currently the group who has the lead in having their leader become the world's first level 100 player. What I'm suggesting is that we go and investigate their clan. If possible, we can disassemble it and also take care of their leader," Scar explained. 

...

"What are you? A strategist?" Yuki asked in a confused tone while also being grateful that he was someone who could gather information quickly and formulate plans to help him. 

"Avila, the reason why I respect Yuki so much is because I am quite jealous of him. He had a secret which I'll tell you about since we're teammates now... when we all came into this world, we were given the option of only having one ability at a time however instead, Yuki was given 1 ability which he could change and another ability which he couldn't change that gave him the ability to teleport," Scar lied as he needed to explain why Yuki had so many odd powers which all came directly from Zero without telling Avila about the existence of a being such as Zero. 

"2 abilities?! That's so cool!" Avila exclaimed as she was beyond excited to have such a powerful person on her side. 

"Yes, I have 2 abilities but Scar wasn't supposed to tell anyone since I don't want to get hunted down by others who want my powers. However, I do believe that I can trust you," Yuki lied along Scar to Avila. 

"Yes you can trust me. I'll keep this secret forever," said Avila still with excitement. 

"Okay then, Scar, just place your palm on my shoulder so I can read your mind and take us to the place where WD is. Avila, place your hand on my shoulder too so we can teleport together," said Yuki as he lied. The reason he had lied about having them place their palms on his shoulder was to make the story more believable as if Yuki was able to both read people's minds so he would know where WD's location was while also being able to teleport to any location along with having another ability seemed to powerful for a single person to have which was why Yuki made up the extra fake steps. 

"S-Sure," they both said simultaneously as they placed their palms on each of Yuki's shoulders. 

"Hey, Zero, can you read Scar's mind and teleport us to where WD's main force operates?" Yuki asked. 

"Of course," said Zero as he teleported all 3 of them to a far away kingdom which WD operated. At the same time however, some had knocked on the door of the room which the 3 of them had been staying at before finally opening the door to see a large flash of light which looked like 3 human figures disappear in front of their eyes. 

"Man, I hope they have glasses in this world because I think it's about time that I get my eyes checked," said the bartender as he left the room after noticing that there was no sign of the people who had come in the previous night. 

...

Back at the kingdom which Scar, Yuki and Avila had been teleported to, the 3 of them began to get a few stares from people before the people turned their attention away like they had seen nothing. 

"Oh, I think we startled them, this could get bad," said Yuki worried that he might've made himself stand out. 

"Don't worry about it. This place is like a metropolis for players who like to level up a lot and one of the strongest clans had their base of operations here. People probably see others teleporting in and out of this kingdom frequently. So in short, we don't stand out a lot," said Scar as he helped Yuki calm down which had a tendency to analyze every situation he was in to the max of his abilities which had helped him stay alive in dungeons but wouldn't be much help in the outside world. 

"I'll be right back," said Scar as he walked away from the group to speak to a man who was reading a newspaper while sitting on a nearby bench to where the 3 of them had teleported. 

"Excuse me sir, would you happen to know where people can apply to join the WD clan?" Scar asked. 

"They take applications in the castle but I should warn you, they only accept the strong. Anyone who's not even at level 5 should give up all hope of ever joining the guild," the man on the bench said. 

"T-Thank you for the warning," said Scar before walking back to where Yuki and Avila were waiting for him. 

"So how did it go?" Yuki asked.

"Well, they take applications in the castle. You and I can get in fine but Avila here can't. She's too weak to join the clan," said Scar with a face of disappointment.

"There's no need to get sad over it. You said you were going to train her yourself. It should only take her a week at max and she'll be ready to join the clan," said Yuki as he began to walk towards the castle-like building in the kingdom. 

"It seems like you're opening up to the idea of Avila tagging along with us," Scar said joyfully. 

"I am not!" Yuki retaliated as Avila laughed while walking behind both of them.
