VRMMO: Am I The Strongest Yet?

Chapter 56: End of a dark magician

[ "No… this cannot happen!" ]

The spirit guardian appeared before the dark mage and looked down at him with enraged expression.

The dark magician was trying to gather all the energy he could to cast any kind of magic, but everything was futile before the green energy that was oozing out of the tiger.

There was fear in the eyes of the black magician. The eyes that had only been looking down at the creatures lower than him were now glaring at the being that had a look of not disgust but disappointment in his angry eyes.

{ "The Nature of [Ashuddha] is that of impurity. When it grants its powers to a being, it impures them." }

-Ooooooooooooong!

A green smoke appeared beneath the dark magician.

{ "The reason the impurity is against nature is not because the nature holds purity– [Shuddh] is a different [Truth] altogether." }

The green energy that had appeared in the form of smoke covered the dark magician.

It slowly covered his legs, his body, and soon, the green energy was covering the dark mage completely.

{ "It is because of the nature of [Ashuddha] that it tries to impure what surrounds everything." }

The green energy slowly started getting darker, and the light it produced started getting brighter as well.

"Wow…"

Elio was stunned by the sight before him.

He was not expecting to see a being like this, a being that made his heart calm down just by its presence.

He was looking at the scene before him, he was looking at how the dark mage who had been the reason for the suffering of everyone in this place, the one who caused so much destruction, do many deaths, and so much bloodshed– the very being that was smoking at them until just a moment ago, was now the one suffering.

"There is a lot you haven't seen yet, Elio."

Alex was fine now. The green energy that had protected them from the attack of the dark mage earlier had healed her as well.

She was fine now, and she was looking at the scene before them with her three adorable companions.

"Muuu…"

"Yes. They are beautiful."

"Miu."

They were lost in the greatness of the scene before them, but she knew all of them were listening to her, and so she finished her sentence.

"This is just a fraction of what true Powers of this world are capable of. We still have a lot to see here."

The light from the green energy had become almost blinding. So, both of them had no choice but to close their eyes.

-Ooooooooooong!

{ "If you do not even understand what power you are using… you have no right to wield that power, oh follower of evil." }

The light vanished soon, and along with the light, the evil dark mage had vanished as well.

All that remained in the place where he stood was black ashes– which soon disappeared with winds as well.

[Ding!]

[The Dark magician has fallen!]

The system notification that appeared before every individual throughout the Moongold town stunned them for a moment.

However, after a moment passed, they grasped what the appearance of this new notification meant.

[Regional Quest: Cleared!]

It was over.

After the loss of so many lives, after shading so much blood, after seeing deaths of so many natives and players, after a battle that lasted the entire night— as the first sunlight of dawn graced them, the long battle came to a halt.

The dark energy that was covering the town from all direction was also vanishing.

"Did we din?"

"Who killed the dark mage…?"

"Better question is… where even is the dark mage?"

"Even better question would be… why is the dark mage?"

"A better one…"

The players who were still engaged in fight with the dark minions watched as the minions of evil vanished- burned away with the new light of dawn.

Their summoner had perished, so there was no medium through which they could exist in this world anymore.

The remaining creatures- goblins under the power of darkness also fell down lifeless without the power that they had following all this time.

This was their end, and… along with them, this was an end to the sudden crisis that the moongold had faced.

"It's over."

Alex sighed a breath of relief and dropped her head on his shoulder.

"Yes…"

And he dropped his head on hers.

It was tiring.

They just wanted to go back to their inn and have a good long sleep.

He was not feeling well, and even though she was healed, she was not feeling so good either.

Rest was important. They were also sleep deprived, so they had to seep.

But before they do that…

{ "It is very rare to see someone following a trial, even for beings like us." }

The tiger that had finished the dark magician that they did not even hope to defeat with their current strength, walked in their direction.

Their elegant walk was refined, unparalleled to the simple walk of the felines found in nature.

{ "It is even more rare to see an object such as that." }

The tiger's eyes were fixed on Alex as they spoke to them.

{ "Young lady…" }

There was a unique curiocity in them, as well as a kind of care they did not have when they looked down at the Dark magician.

{ "Is it possible to know your Immortal name?" }

The tiger had a look similar to that of respect in his eyes.

With the light in the Mana crystal on its forehead getting dimmer, his astral body was fading away as well.

But, the curiosity and respect was still present in his deep eyes.

And seeing this reaction, Alex had a nostalgic smile on her face.

"I cannot tell you my Immortal name, child of Kohaku."

She spoke simply, but her words caused a storm in their respectful, curious eyes.

"However, THEY should know <Amber empress of garden of life>. Ask her when you return."

The way she was talking to this guardian spirit seemed quite unusual to Elio, as if a majestic being like this one was nothing unique to her.

She was unfazed even in their great presence, she was looking directly in the eyes of a being that had just killed a dark mage without even lifting a finger– or paw in this case, or a nail of that paw.

He knew she was a high level player before but, wasn't she using an Alt right now? Or, as he had expected, did she just really somehow leveled down?

He did not know what she meant by most of the things she was saying, but he could tell from the surprised look of the creature before him that whatever it was… it was no small thing.
