New Life Online 193 Bright Edge's Madness

"BRIGHT EDGE'S LIMIT BREAK!" Zia chanted. I'm pretty sure Lili saved Zia by sacrificing herself but she still has her pa.s.sive which resurrects herself when she dies once a day so... I think didn't really sacrificed herself...

Suddenly, I felt a tremendous amount of power like the power released by Mari when she tried stopping the last ma.s.sive attack of the Frozen King. She's releasing an incredible amount of power!

Zia's weapon slowly covers her body creating full-scale armor. Her weapon also changed into a long spear-like last time and there are wings behind her back. What did she do to have power like this?!

*SWOOOOOOs.h.!.+* She disappeared! I was looking at her a second ago but I don't know what happened!

*BAAAAAAAAAM!* I heard a sound near the Frozen King and he was suddenly hit by something!

The Frozen King hit one of the buildings and the place was devastated! After hitting the building and destroying it, he pa.s.sed right through it and hit another building! Whoever attacked him, it looks like he or she's really not playing around anymore.

Zia appeared above the Frozen King! She's the one who did it?!

"BUT HOW?! WHERE DID YOU GET THAT KIND OF POWER?!" The Frozen King said really frustrated. I don't know what's happening but as long as she can stop this madness then I really don't care anymore.

Zia held her spear of light and summoned a couple more around her! It's as if I'm looking at a different person. She has changed. She's not that scared girl anymore.

"Shhh... Don't ask too much... I'll enjoy beating the h.e.l.l out of you before killing you." Wait a minute... Zia would never say such things! I'm having trouble believing that this is Zia talking!

"BRIGHT EDGE'S THORNS OF LIGHT!" She, whoever she is, fired the spears towards the Frozen King!

*BAAAAAAAM BABABAAAAAM!* The spears pierced the Frozen King's armor so easily, so much power! But will it really defeat the Frozen King? He's always saying that he's immortal, is it really true?

The Frozen King was nailed down to the ground and he's having trouble moving.

*CRACK* The Frozen King broke the spears. He was able to escape being nailed down but he really took a lot of beating from that last attack. He stood up trying to hold his wounded body.

"Oh? What happened? Did you stop regenerating? Are you running out of juice?" Zia said. Where did she learn how to trash talk like that?

Lili, who just died a couple of seconds ago, finally resurrected but still really not in a good shape. I went to her place and get her out to a safe place.

"YOU'LL STOP THAT RUNNY MOUTH OF YOURS AFTER I SLAP YOUR FACE! IMMORTAL KING'S HANDS OF DEATH!" The Frozen King still has the power to use that spell!

*SWOOOOOs.h.!.+* Zia moved so fast she was able to avoid the attack in just a blink of an eye!

*BAAAAAAAAAM!* Zia, using her spear, pierced the head of the Frozen King! Right to the face!

"BRIGHT EDGE'S KICK!" It may sound so simple but after Zia pulled out the spear out of the Frozen King's head, she kicked him so fast that, once again, he hit the buildings nearby!

"We may have survived that Rupture but that girl is destroying the buildings! Someone stop that wrecking machine!" Zeth, who's currently trying his best not to die, said. He's kind of right because, with only two attacks of Zia, a couple of buildings were already destroyed... As if, anyone can really stop their fight.

Zia's too powerful that it's like she's not really taking this fight seriously. She's making fun of the Frozen King!

"NO! I WILL NOT LET YOU DEFEAT THE IMMORTAL KING! IMMORTAL KING'S DEVOURER OF SOULS!" The Frozen King unleashed the souls from his body and covered Zia! That's the last attack the Frozen King can do! I can feel the power leaving his body!

"BRIGHT EDGE'S SOUL REAPER!" In just once slash, the souls around her vanished and a wave of light hit the Frozen King!

*SWOOOOOOOs.h.!.+* The Frozen King flew again after Zia hit him again. Zia appeared above the Frozen King while in mid-air!

"BRIGHT EDGE'S HEAVY FISTS!" She's preparing to unleash another attack from above! Her spear transformed into a knuckles weapon.

*BAAAAAAAAM!* The Frozen King was. .h.i.t and fell to the ground! A ma.s.sive shake was felt after he hit the ground. What ma.s.sive force!

*BAAAAAM BABABAAAAM!* Zia didn't stop from that. She unleashed another batch of consecutive punches that with every hit of the Frozen King, the earth moves and the terrain is being destroyed with her fists alone.

Zia continued punching the Frozen King with her heart's content and after a while... she raised her right hand. She summoned a giant sword and prepared the last hit.

"I... HATE YOU..." The Frozen King muttered. His body is beyond recognizable that it's like he's been smashed by a giant.

"I know," Zia replied while smiling.

*BOOOOOOOOOOOM!* She unleashed a powerful final attack that released a shockwave destroying everything around her... including the buildings!

The buildings' debris fell to the ground and covered the area, where they fought, with dust. The place around them is like a scene from some apocalyptic movies.

"Oh c.r.a.p... that would take a month of repairs..." Zeth said after what happened.

After a couple of minutes... we regrouped and helped the wounded players. The place was devastated. The fire spread throughout the city but thankfully it didn't really deal a lot of damage to the city. West Gate walls were also destroyed and a lot of people died from the war.

"Anyone found the girl yet?" Zeth ordered a rescue operation for Zia after the buildings buried both Zia and the Frozen King. I wish she's ok.

"Can you just shut the f*ck up?! My golem can't work well if you're nagging like an old b*tch!" Language... Celeste really needs to tone it down a bit with her words.

Celeste and Elle's Golems are helping to remove the debris of the buildings.

"Just... ok... sorry." Zeth's too tired to even argue with her.

I've tried to check if Elou's alive but unfortunately, he died from the attack of the Frozen King. A lot of our guild members also died but I guess it's unavoidable.

"Sir! We've found the girl! She's severely wounded and also unconscious. We also found a black gem... which we think is the Soul stone of the Frozen King." One of the trackers said.

"Seriously?! Then that means, she defeated the Frozen King!" Zeth happily said and got the gem. What should we do with the Frozen King's soul stone?

"I'll hold it for a while and wait for Maximus. This is a World Boss cla.s.s soul stone and no one can ever use it." He's right. Even if the other guilds can acquire such soul stone, they are still too weak to use it.

"We have to destroy the Soul Stone." I heard a voice from afar. It's Aurora! She's alive!

"What do you mean to destroy it?! This is a powerful soul stone and why are you still alive after using your last spell?" Zeth asked. Like the tournament, I remember that it would kill her if she uses that rewind thing.

"For starters, I would take that tone as saying "Thank you for saving our city." Lili used a spell called "Deny Death" on me and it saved me but I can't move a single part of my body after surviving my own spell. And to answer why we need to destroy the soul stone is because it's too powerful that if someone who has ill intentions would get a hold of it, then what do you think will happen? Not to mention, that Siren really became powerful enough to reach her Rare Monster soul's final form." Aurora explained and she has a point.

"You did reach it too. If we destroy the Soul stone, then we can never use it. If I'm not wrong, world bosses won't resp.a.w.n if they were killed so this gem is like a once in a lifetime treasure." Zeth doesn't really like the idea of pa.s.sing that kind of power.

"No, it's not a treasure but merely an overpowered broken weapon that could kill us all! Destroy it now or I'll destroy you!" Aurora needs to calm down.

"What's wrong with you?! This is just a game, why the heck are you making such a big fuss about it?!" I don't know what's happening right now but I guess Aurora made a good point. We have to destroy it.

"You heard me. Destroy the Soul stone!" Aurora is really getting so serious.

"No! This is not for you to decide. This is a guild's matter!" Zeth... No, it's not. Without us, you wouldn't get that soul stone.

"You've left me no choice. Prepare to die!" Aurora rushed towards Zeth! She's not doing well but her weak body didn't stop her to move fast!

"I'd like you to try!" Zeth also rushed towards Aurora. Just what the h.e.l.l is happening?!

*CLAAAAANG CLAAAAANG*

"What?!" Zeth was surprised at what happened. Both, Zeth and Aurora's swords were stopped by someone who appeared in the middle of the fight blocking their attacks from below.

"Fellas. Why so hasty?" That, someone, said.

"Who the h.e.l.l are you?!" Zeth tried to attack that someone but...

"ZWOOOOOOs.h.!.+" He twirls his sword pus.h.i.+ng both Aurora and Zeth away.

"Why are you here Jay? We have an agreement that people from the other side can't travel past Beginner's Area." It seems that Aurora knows this guy.

"Well, to be honest, we heard that the Order of Light City is in a pinch but I guess we're too late to help. Also, we didn't really make that agreement. You... made that agreement. We just fought and I accidentally touch your..."

"Just stop! If only I have my full power, you would be dead by now like I did to you years ago!" They seem to have a bit of a past. Thought it's really weird to see Aurora getting too angry.

"I know that. But I guess you guys are turning to each other because of the Soul stone of the World Boss that I heard. How about we just take time to relax and talk with the leaders who partic.i.p.ated in the war? This is not for one girl to decide even if you're the strongest player. Not to mention, someone else defeated the Frozen King and not you." The guy explained and I think his name is Jay.

"I don't care anymore. I'm going to log out now because I'm too hungry." She said and disappeared after a couple of seconds.

"Good to see you too, Zeth. Already forgot your old friend?" It looks like they know each other too.

"We don't need your help. Go back to where you belong." I guess they do have a past as well.

-Hospital-

*Zia's POV*

I woke up in my room and it's already morning. I can hear the chirps of the birds and even the crows of the roosters. I think I pa.s.sed out after using the limit break. I really don't care anymore. I just want to clean up myself and eat a good meal. I hope it's not veggies again because I'm really hungry.

I tried lifting my feet and I realized half of my body is paralyzed. I played too long that I forgot that I'm sick.

After all that, my breakfast was veggies again. What a lucky day.

*Sigh* I'm getting tired being stuck here. I just... I just want to stay at the game forever... I feel like I pretty much belong there rather than here.

So... It's time to log in back and check what happened. I hope everything's alright.

-Life Guild-

Hmmm? I logged in back and it seems that everyone is waiting for me. Did I do something wrong?

"Welcome back, Zia! The Hero who defeated the Frozen King!" Elou? Defeated who now?

"Who defeated the Frozen King?" I asked curiously because, for some reason, they are all looking at me. And where the heck are we?

"You, silly! You defeated the Frozen King with that transformation of yours! You're way too savage that you even destroyed some buildings nearby! Good job on that though. Haha!" Scy? It looks like they are celebrating. But... I don't remember anything...

"I did the job for you dummy. You pa.s.sed out after the transformation because of too much fatigue and I took over." You what?!

"Yes, I did." Please stop reading my mind.

It looks like we are all back to our guild. All of our guild members are here. Also, the elves and the villagers of the simple village are also having fun. I saw some unfamiliar faces partying with us... who are they? And just what the heck happened while I was out?
