Chapter 413 Atollie
Chapter 413 Atollie
I can only think that I really jinxed myself. How was I supposed to know I would unleash some doomsday weapon? It fired lasers nonstop. If it was not for the fact that everyone here was quicker than the rate the weapon was firing, we would already be dead by now. But this makes me wonder. How was one supposed to defeat the golem if they did not destroy its core? It's like this dungeon is playing with me. First, I needed to be stabbed multiple times to beat one boss, and then I somehow awakened the ultimate weapon!
"I am open to any ideas!" I yelled out. I had no idea what I was going to do to get out of this mess.
"Faith, try using the skill stones. We gained quite a few, did we not? Maybe we can get a skill to defeat the boss." Sally yelled back. I thought for a moment and nodded my head. We ended up with like ten skill stones, so we might get something worthwhile, right?
I took a deep breath and activated the first skill stone.
[Common Skill Acquired: XXXXXXXXXXX (LVL 1(Max))]
I frowned. Yes, this skill was helpful in some situations but only when you are with your loved one! I now understand how Sei felt when she got her naughty skill. Frowning, I tried another one.
[Ultimate Skill Acquired: Atollie]
[Ultimate Skills Unlocked...]
[Atollie]
[The path to heaven is not an easy one...]
[Follow the path of butterflies...]
[Reach the end for untold power....]
The description was quite weird, but I had no time to really care about that. I had no idea what this skill would do, but.... For now, I could only try it. I took a deep breath as I dodged another barrage of lasers and closed my eyes, and let the name of the skill roll off my tongue. "Atollie"
At the moment the word left my mouth, it felt as if time had stopped altogether. The whole boss room began to light up as glowing butterflies began to fill the room in masses. I felt my body become lighter, and a surge of power welled up within me.
[Conditions met.....]
[Commencing Summoning...]
[Gate Has Connected...]
The butterflies suddenly condensed into a big massive glowing ball. It took up so much room that I had to retreat backward. My eyes were glued to the glowing ball as it slowly unfurled, revealing a young woman with huge glowing white feathered wings. She wore silver armor and had long blonde hair that trailed down to her back, just past her waist. She turned her golden eyes to me and softly smiled. "My name is Atollie. I shall smite your enemies."
With these words, she turned to the boss and raised her hand. A golden sword suddenly appeared in the air. It gave off a pressure I had never felt before. Before I knew what was happening, the one who called herself Atollie disappeared. There was only the sound of ringing going off in my ears as my level suddenly began to rise at an incredible speed.
I didn't even get to see what happened. The boss suddenly turned into balls of shiny light before dropping a huge pile of treasure. Slowly landing in front of me, Atollie knelt down in front of me and bowed her head. "I have dispatched the enemy, Master."
"Huh? Yeah...." I could only nod dumbly as I looked at the angelic-looking young woman in front of me. She was definitely otherworldly, that is for sure. She did not seem like anything that could come from any mortal plane of existence.
"Master?" Atollie looked up at me in confusion, but I was still out of it. It was not just me either. The girls all turned and looked at her as well, with shock written all over their faces. A boss... with one billion health died instantly. It was so fast I didn't even get a chance to figure out if she struck more than once or not. All I knew was that my crisis had come to an end.
Appraisal did not even work on Atollie. I tried two times already but got nothing. It was as if magic did not work on her. What was even stranger was that she did not seem to be disappearing....
"Ummm, Atollie.... was it? How.... How long is your summon time for?" I asked. I was a little scared, to be honest. I have never met anyone this powerful before. She was leagues above Diablo, and the rest, even Azengrade, could not hold a candle to her power.
"Hmmm? Summon time? I am sorry, I do not understand." Atollie blinked her eyes at me as she slowly stood up and walked to my side, and stood there like a statue. Was she planning on guarding me!? Not that I am complaining but still....
My level jumped by almost two thousand, and I am sure the girls got even more levels. The boss was like some kind of hidden mega boss and really gave us a ton of experience points. This was like a level 1 fighting a level 100 boss and winning. But I had no time to rejoice as I still needed to figure out what was going on with Atollie....
She stood at my side with her back ramrod straight. Her eyes darted back and forth as she looked around. I could see the excitement in her eyes. I guess this was all new and fresh to her. I scratched my head as the girls ran over to me and asked: "Umm.... Atollie, do you live off magic?"
"Hmmm? Of course. As long as I have magic I will never disappear." And so we have an answer. Atollie was probably one of those kinds of summons that would not disappear until you run out of mana to sustain it. And since I had infinity magic, I was basically made for such a skill. But an ultimate skill was something that summoned a powerful figure. I did not think such a thing would be possible. I wonder which realm or place Atollie comes from.
"I see... that is good. Well... Atollie, my name is Faith. This is my wives, Adel and Sophie, and these two are my closest friends, Sei and Sally." I went ahead and introduced everyone. I mean, I do not know if Atollie will ever disappear, but for now, she was our new friend and comrade, so....
"It is a pleasure to meet you all. My name is Atollie, one of the Thirteen Rounds of the Table of Gods. I will be in your care from now on." Atollie gave a knightly bow. But her introduction kind of said a lot more than I was ever expecting. Like, what is the Thirteen Rounds of the Table of Gods?
"Atollie, what are the thirteen rounds?" Leave it to Adel to pick up on the important stuff and ask right away!
"The Thirteen Rounds of the Table of Gods are a group of knights who protect the realm from any evil that dares to try to attack. You can think of us as the guardians of the gate. The table of gods is a table we all gather at for meetings. I never thought I would be summoned to another place." Atollie replied, her eyes still looking around curiously.
"Atollie, why do you call me Master?" This was something I did not understand. She is so powerful but is calling me Master. I feel she is much different than a demon summoned with enslave demon.
"It may sound strange, but when I was summoned, I was suddenly connected to you and was given an order from a higher power. I can not tell you more than this." Atollie's answer left even more questions. Is this dungeon truly messing with me in some strange way? Was this the reason it gave me this OP cheat!? I mean, Atollie is like the key to solving all my worries!
"We will be in your care from now on, then," I said with a smile.
"No, I should be saying this as I am now your guardian knight. It is a pleasure to serve one so cute." Atollie's lips curled up into a smile, as did her eyes. She seemed happy about her current situation.
"Was your job guarding the gate hard?" Sophie asked.
"No, but there were a lot of old men, and I was the one and only female knight. So being able to come here and see new things and hang around actual girls is something I have always dreamt of. It's hard because we can not leave the gate. I have been stuck there guarding it with the others for so long that I have lost count. Seeing the same sights every day gets boring and bland. I was hoping maybe one day I could escape such a fate."
"Well, hopefully, you will enjoy your stay here." I did not know how to send her back, and from the looks of it, she did not wish to go back, so this all worked out. We get a powerful ally, and Atollie gets her freedom from her boring life.
