New Life Online 243 Settling The Score

"SILVER LININGS! BLIGHT OF LIGHT!" Jay's changing his move! This is bad but I'm prepared now unlike before!

"ZOFIA'S BLADE SPROUT OF IMPALER!" I touched the ground from below trying to plant my mana inside and like I expected, Jay showed up above me with the brightest light enough to blind even the G.o.ds. But I'm not a G.o.d and just a player trying to be with the right side and not blindly following the Light!

*BAAAAM BABABAAAM!* Hundreds of blades came out from the ground and hit him, piercing all over his body. He tried to attack his way through me but his will wasn't as strong as mine.

"Ugh... Just like I thought. I'm not powerful enough to protect what I created and now... I'm weak and powerless. Be strong, Chara. This is just the start of the real battle..." After that... he stopped breathing... I never imagine me, killing my leader... we've been together in the same guild for a long time... and it all ended here...

Then... it dawned me that Jay is a smart guy and not a dumb one to think like this. His reason might be really heavy that he sacrificed all of this. I started to feel doubt and uneasiness. I wish that everything will be fine. This is just a game... this is just a game...

I'm tired, my last move consumed almost all my mana. It will take some time to regain mana that much because most of my gears are focused on defensive and mobility-related effects. I should stop worrying and see what is happening right now with Aurora and others.

"Chara, you idiot! You should have trusted him. He's not doing this to benefit himself but it's for the guild. You made the wrong decision, believe me, Chara." Rafrov... as the smartest guy I know, why do this. Did I really make the wrong decision?

"Don't worry, Chara. Sooner or later, everyone will know the truth but for now, trust your heart and just stay strong. Just wait for a bit while I teach these guys a lesson." Aurora said... How can she be so confident trying to fight four people with all their monster souls activated already!

*CLANG!* Arvin is using his monster soul. I haven't seen it yet and I didn't have the chance to know what it is but his armor is still the same but his weapons are daggers made of bones.

"How dare you underestimate us! I will make you say that again while you're bleeding to death! RAAAAAWR!" Arvin, your anger issues won't help you win, idiot. Aurora's so calm that it feels like she's really controlling the situation.

"SWOOOOs.h.!.+* Aurora tried to attack him but she missed so easily. Arvin's evasion is on a different level than others. I can tell.

"You missed, b*t... ugh..." He didn't see what happened but after evading her attack, somehow, he was. .h.i.t again from nowhere! It's like her last attack happened twice in a row!

"CHRONOS SONIC SLAs.h.!.+" She tried to attack Arvin using a long-range skill while Arvin is defenseless from being hit by her last attack!

"DRAUGR! STOP HER ATTACK!" Raf's summon showed up in front of Arvin to protect him!

*BAAAAAAM!* The Draugr was able to stop it but it almost cut in half! Its body is not tough but it can recreate itself easily.

*BAAAAAAM!* Another one?! But Aurora didn't use her attack anymore! The Draugr was cut in half and the long-range wave attack from Aurora hit Arvin! The attack was powerful enough to push him back and hit the wall! His body is severely injured by that attack. If no one can heal him in time, then I'm sure he'll bleed to death.

"I don't underestimate my opponents. I just know that I will win no matter what. They call me the Strongest Player of New Life Online because I'm the best of what I do. Now, try counting because if you skip even for a second, you'll realize that you've already died. CHRONOS' ACCELERATE!" Aurora's abilities are not on my level. She moves so fast!

"EARTH GOLEM'S G.o.d AURA!" Celeste's golem released a tremendous aura that I can't tell what it can do. Suddenly, it moved so fast to attack Aurora on its path!

*BAAAAAAM!* The Golem made a powerful two-hand punch in front of it targeting Aurora! A ma.s.sive blast happened and the path of the explosion was devastated! All the things the shockwave hit crumbled to pieces!

*SWOOOOs.h.!.+* But from that place covered in dust and debris, Aurora came out from above unscathed!

"You're not going to get away for what you've done to Arvin! ROC'S SWARMING FLOCK OF BIRDS!" Briam created hundreds of birds towards Aurora's location! Those birds are so dangerous that they can easily reduce a large amount of army in just a small amount of time!

"CHRONO'S SONIC WHIRLWIND!" She magnificently twirled in fast succession releasing numbers of sonic waves powerful enough to destroy every bird in her path! It didn't stop from that!

I suddenly hid from one of the buildings because her attack happened again after she just used it! It's like everything she does happens twice in a row!

After that, Aurora is now falling from above and is now on her way towards them!

"I won't let you get near us! DRAUGR'S MELTING ART OF DESTRUCTION!" Raf ordered. The Draugr changed form and it's like it's trying to make a huge slime melting everything on its path with huge explosions!

"CHRONO'S TIME STOP!" Before the Draugr get near her, it stopped from moving! She can stop time whenever she wants?!

"d.a.m.n it... we're not enough to stop her," Raf said after all that happened. All their attacks were useless against her.

"Your time is up... CHRONO'S TRIPLE DODECA SLAs.h.!.+" In just a blink of an eye, she appeared from behind of them and they just fell to the ground as nothing happened...

*BOOOOOOOM!* After that, the Draugr exploded making a huge eruption, turning everything to dust... If she was. .h.i.t by that, even if she's the strongest, I don't think she can survive from that.

"Did you see me not look back after that? Haha!" She said laughing... what a savage girl laughing after killing people.

"Saw what now?" I curiously asked.

"Me, just walking like that after that explosion because you know, cool girls don't look at explosions!" Aurora seems to be enjoying... but seriously, this girl with her power is really broken.

"Sure, Sure. I think that the strongest player is also smart with her decisions so I hope I made the right decision following you guys." I said trying to stand straight after all the damage I took from my last fight.

"You're strong too and pretty tough. You did well kicking Jay's as* like that. Anyway, I can feel that the others need help from us. Let's go before it's too late. Here's a potion. It will heal your wounds faster over time but of course, it won't fix your injuries. Injuries like that take some time to heal." She said and so we started moving. She handed me the potion and so I drunk it. It tasted so weird but it would be rude of me to not take it. Eww... if she created it by herself... then she needs to do something about her alchemy skills.

(Potions in this game won't heal your hp back in an instant or fix your injuries. But it will slowly heal your wounds while out of combat. If you guys remember, Elou used a potion while fighting with Panthie but he used that after using stealth cloak making him out of combat for a brief period of time. The effect of the potion won't work effectively in combat so it would be just a waste.)

"Thanks, you're a life saver," I said my thanks and started moving while my face says that I just drunk something nasty.

"Don't worry about it. If you didn't come then I'm going to be in trouble fighting all of them at once. Jay is a formidable opponent and you somehow managed to defeat him. I can say that you're something as well." I don't think I'm strong enough to be praised by her but it feels so good to hear that.

*CLAAAANG!* I've felt a tremendous bloodl.u.s.t and as soon as I checked, Aurora is blocking an attack from someone already! It's... it's Maisie! The red hooded girl who almost killed me back then!

"I guess someone wants to settle the score but let me tell you this. The result of this fight will always be the same but still, I would love to see you try," Aurora said. Then she pushed her back by swiftly swinging her sword. This Maisie girl is way too scary! The bloodl.u.s.t she emits, it's not normal. With that kind of aura, her charisma should be almost negative but with her beauty, I can tell that it's not it.

"..." Out of nowhere, her aura started to eat the atmosphere. Her armor changed and I can feel it... she's not using a monster soul but an armor soul like me!
