My King System

Chapter 206 - Christopher

"So it's all these guys against me? That's fine. I already said this once and I'll say it again, leave this to me!" said Yuki as he opened his inventory and pulled out "King's Crown". 

"Who's this runt behind Arthur?!" Alex asked in an angry tone. 

"Well, it's not like it matters now, we'll kill the both of you!" Alex announced. 

"But why would you do such a thing Adam?! Why would you betray me like this?!" Arthur asked as he looked at the former top 20 member of the clan known as WD. 

"Why do you ask? You didn't defend me back there, instead you greeted the one who assaulted me with welcoming arms. You never cared about me Arthur, all you cared was about the power I hold. That goes the same for Scar. You only care for the power we have. We're just some ranked page to you. You don't see us as humans, we're just tools to you right Arthur?" Adam asked as both Arthur and Yuki began to get surrounded. 

"Of course I care about you. You're a precious member of my clan. I don't know what I would do if you weren't in it. Please, let's just go home now," said Arthur. 

"Stop lying damn it! You always pretend like you're some kind of hero and everyone eats that garbage up because you've made yourself look like a hero! But I'm done dealing with your lies. This is the end of the line for you Arthur!" Adam announced as everyone began to charge at Arthur and Yuki. 

"I'll take care of this," said Yuki as he placed "King's Crown" on his head.

"Hey Yuki, stand back for just a bit," said the tall figure known as Arthur as he walked forward towards Adam even though he was completely surrounded.

"You know Adam, you were right. I only see the members of WD as simply tools. Not a single thing you said was a lie. I'm just a scumbag who's the worst of the worst. But you know what? I'm the strongest person on the planet and there's nothing you can do about it," said Arthur with a confident smile on his face.

"Yuki, let me show you why people see me as a hero," said Arthur as he leapt forward and landed a direct punch at Adam who was sent back several meters until he made contact with the rooms wall, even so, Arthur had hit him hard enough for Adam's body to break the wall and fall out of the castle.

"He should be out of commission for quite a while now. As for the rest of you, give me all you've got!" Arthur yelled out as everyone began to charge at him at their top speeds from all directions as they wanted to be the ones to defeat Arthur first.

Unfortunately for them, the Arthur who had no access to a proper ability would still come out on top of the battle as he showed them exactly why he was number 1 in the whole world. In just 16 seconds, everyone was laying on their back on the ground as Arthur had knocked out everyone in the room in that short amount of time.

"So how was that?! Pretty impressive right? You should probably be thanking me right now for being so strong!" Arthur announced with pride.

"No Arthur, this battle is far from over, I'll make sure that you die today. I won't allow you to live another day!" said Alex as he still wasn't touched as he somehow managed to hide in the shadows as he sat on a fancy chair. 

"What do you mean Alex? Can't you see that all your men are on the ground begging for their lives. There's no point in dragging this battle on any longer, just admit you lost and I'll even let you live," said Arthur. 

"No no, that won't worry. Sorry Arthur, this has to happen. It was fun competing with you," said Alex before activating his ability. 

"Activate ability: Rewind Time"

"What? No you, are you a moron or something?! An ability like that has crazy drawbacks!" That's why no one bothers to make their ability something so powerful! It drains too much stamina and won't last for long. Why would you go to all these lengths?" Arthur asked in a confused tone. 

"Because he wills for it," Alex replied before finally activating his ability.

"Who are you talking about-" before Arthur could ask his question, time had turned back by 16 seconds which was the moment that Arthur had begun his battle with everyone in the room. 

"What happened to us?"

"Weren't we lying down on the ground?"

"Was that real or just a shared illusion?"

The people in the room began to ask each other pointless questions as they clearly should've known that time was turned back so that they could get another chance to battle against Arthur. 

"But why would you do this Alex? Don't you know that it's all pointless in the end. I'll just end up beating these guys once again and you'll be back where you started," Arthur argued and just at that precise moment, another figure came into the scene as it smashed a durable metal bat into the head of Arthur causing the one known as the strongest man in the world to pass out instantly as blood gushed out of his skull. 

"It was me who ordered this. Christopher, the second strongest man in the world!" Christopher announced as he entered the room by coming up behind Arthur. 

...

"Are you happy now?! You've managed to get rid of him so let my clan members go! I did as you told me to do!" said Alex as he spoke to Christopher who seemed to have some sort of connection with Alex. 

"Sorry Alex but I've already taken care of all of them. They've kicked the bucket," said Christopher with a blank stare. 

"You monster! I'll kill you!" Alex yelled out as he got off his chair and began to charge towards Christopher with every intention to kill him. However right before Alex could reach Christopher, someone else appeared with a gun in his hand as he pointed it at Alex. 

"I've already prepared for something like this to happen, I'm not foolish enough to come here without any backup. Plus, it gives me a reason to kill you as well. Goodbye Alex," said Christopher, hearing those words made the man holding the gun pull the trigger. 

However, in the moment right before the gun could go off, Yuki leaped off the ground and slammed his foot into the skull of the one holding the gun before getting back up on his feet and looking dead into Alex's eyes. 

"Turn back time once again!" Yuki yelled at him. Without asking anymore questions Alex did as he was told since Yuki had just saved his life. 

"Activate ability: Rewind Time"

Within a blink of an eye, time had been reminded once again by 17 seconds. This time, Alex had passed out from overusing his ability. 

"Who was the one who attack me from the back?!" Arthur asked as he still didn't know who had attacked him and caused him to pass out. 

"You've done enough already Arthur, let me take things from now on," said Yuki in a voice filled with determination. 

"Come on Yuki, you know when it comes to physical battle, this is way above your league, just show me who attacked me and we'll be able to go home in one piece," said Arthur. 

"No Arthur, there's something you don't know of-" said Yuki as he turned around to face Christopher who had a metal bat in his hand and looked pissed as if he was going to kill anyone who would dare to stand in his way which was what Yuki was doing. 

Without even asking a question, Christopher swung his bat with all his strength at Yuki so that he would get out of the way so that Christopher could kill both Arthur and Alex while making sure to torture Alex well for almost runing his perfect plan. 

Once the bat was swung, Yuki had managed to block the hit with his right forearm but at the cost of that, it was completely broken, even so, Yuki didn't move an inch. 

"Huh? You dare to still stand in my way?! I guess I aimed my bat at the wrong area. The next one will be at your neck! Try to get in my way after that!" said Christopher with his blood thirsty eyes. 

"So it was you all along! I wondered why there wasn't any news of you over the past few weeks even though you were in the top 10 in the whole world! I'll make sure to end your worthless life right here, Christopher!" said Arthur as he turned to look at the beast in front of him with no fear in his eyes. Even if Arthur was fearless, he wouldn't be able to save Yuki from getting his neck broken by Christopher. It was a necessary sacrifice. 

...

"Serve your king!" 

"Meurig!"
