[Warning! You are being confronted with unimaginable power . ]

[Warning! Consider a tactical retreat . ]

[You have entered a Maxed Death Sentence!]

[You have been challenged by the Viper . Prepare yourself . ]

[The pressure of the power is impossible to withstand!]

[You have entered PVP combat!]

[Life and Death! Survive!]

Dark coughed out a mouthful of blood as HE approached . Tears fell from his eyes—all of his servants…his friends—his family in this world, laid in a b.l.o.o.d.y heap inside the palace . High levels, some even in the three hundreds, taken down easily by this man . What could Dark possibly do? Even the man's servants were too strong . Their levels showed up as red question marks .

"I would've thought the Leaf to be stronger than this," the man said . "You're the first non-native of the game I've met and yet, just a brat . If you weren't one of the five, I'd consider sparing you, motivate you to get stronger to face me properly . Shame that I cannot do that . "

Dark a.n.a.lyzed him .

Name: Aunder .

Type: Antagonist/ Viper . Esper .

HP: ???%

MP: Infinite .

Spirit Sign: Legendary soul .

Tears continued to drop…All he wanted to do was have a better life . He escaped his h.e.l.l on earth and found it, only to have it ripped away by this man . Death himself in the flesh .

"No need to cry over your servants, they're not dead," Aunder said, "just beaten b.l.o.o.d.y for attacking without provocation . Lack of honor for servants if you asked me . Protecting a weak lord . . heh . Now, die in peace, die in honor . Get up and face me with your last breath . Unsheathe your weapon . "

Dark forced himself to stand up from the cold rocky ground . What he saw through the black cloak were glowing purple eyes . Death's glare .

[You have been ensnared . ]

[You have been inflicted with fear and despair . ]

[Your pa.s.sive skill Soul protection prevents you from succ.u.mbing to the status alignments . ]

Dark drew his black sword, took a deep breath then exhaled . He would go down with a fight, for his servants and friends and for Ik.u.mi…whom he could never confess his love… . He put aside the thoughts and focused .

[You have invoked Burst Mode . ]

Surrounded in white aura, he raced forward, knowing he was a fool, and brought down the first blade, right into the Viper's afterimage . Aunder placed a hand on his shoulder .

"Try harder . "

Dark snarled as he swung but missed and missed and missed and missed .

"Is this a game to you," he yelled .

Aunder shrugged .

"Isn't that what they called it?"

"Great power—hurgh!"

[You activated Dark Bolt Shock Field . ]

A field of dark energy and electricity expanded from the young man in a sphere . It reminded Dark of an ability called Raid Ender . Or maybe Vegeta's final explosion from Dragonball . He shook his head . Even in front of Death, he still thought of silly things .

"I am Dark, who will conquer this world," he said . "Great lord of the dark . "

Aunder laughed, walking through his shock field casually .

"A bit delusional I see," he said . "I suppose that's a possibility when you're given power . Well, I guess this is it—the extent of what you can do . Dark element and that's it . Maybe you'll be reincarnated into someone capable of fighting me . "

"My lord," said one of his servants, a pretty dark-haired woman . "Let me . Don't b.l.o.o.d.y your blade . "

"I must . It is a duel, now back off . Let him die with honor . "

Dark fell to his knees, shaking . He didn't want to die . The man before him couldn't be sane . He was just not real . Not one of them . Why was he granted this ridiculous power and not everyone else? Not even the normie would have time to—

Dark gasped as the piercing, agonizing pain erupted into his chest . His breathing grew short . He forcibly held in the tears of fear and defeat . He realized that he was just a nineteen-year-old child, playing pretend in a demon's world . Attempting to escape the h.e.l.lish reality of his old life for his dream life . Living inside an anime, apart of it, with power and actual friends . And now he had to die for just wanting to be liked .

Aunder suddenly pulled back his blade and the pain vanished . Selkie stood in front of him, full glory—power and light raging around her .

"BEGONE! YOU WILL NOT TAKE HIM!"

Winds and lightning and hundreds of colors pushed toward the Viper .

"d.a.m.n pretty lady, no need to hit me with an angelic scream . " Aunder laughed as if warmhearted . "How about it? Will you fight me in his stead? I'll kill him another day . "

[Selkie's heal has stabilized you . You are cleared of all injury and status alignments . ]

Selkie was already in Aunder's guard, but couldn't touch him . The Viper laughed .

"Feisty . I like them with a little spark . "

Dark had to do something about this, but what? The Viper would do more than just wipe the floor with him . He'd…

Dark stood . Of course… . the system warned him . A tactical retreat . He would force Selkie and himself to…And abandon all of his servants to die . Ik.u.mi .

[Aunder continues to take no damage . ]

[Selkie's HP has dropped to 21%]

[Selkie's Hp has dropped to 9%]

There was no time .

[You activated Tier 3 Skill: A Last Retreat . ]

[You selected Selkie to travel with you . You will be whisked away to Dark Elf Territory, Messalay, Satovia . ]

Aunder's blade missed by just a centimeter as Dark's power took he and his companion away .

I'm sorry, he thought as the new land emerged around him . He could only hope that the Viper did not see them as worthy of his time .

He allowed himself to collapse, trembling . Those glowing purple eyes of death . The attack on his palace that came out of nowhere . The feeling of the blade which claimed his soul .

Dark did not want to face the Esper ever again . He truly was a Viper .

Somewhere in Lot City…

Ming let out a breath as she finished both her main works . Her mind couldn't be released from the thought of actually meeting the man who wielded the forbidden spellcaster deck . Then her stupid cousin had to go and ruin everything . Where did she learn magic? She showed no signs of being gifted before . And as if things weren't already bad, the entire family was. .h.i.t by scandals, left and right . If her parents didn't work abroad, there was no doubt Abe Tanaka, one of the most powerful men in the city, would've taken them out too . To think she met his daughter, all over her future husband . Ming let out an exasperated sigh . Nothing short of a miracle that she was able to write and draw under such stress .

Despite everything, she stood as gifted too, with powers she could wield to help out the Stone . Venus knew Ming wanted to be useful to him . She didn't get the chance to sit and talk with Clyde, to tell the young man things that he needed to know . The girls around him didn't give her the chance .

"Dammit, Chika's such a b.i.t.c.h…and she is not . " Ming dove into her bed, burying her face into the pillow . "I'm supposed to be one of the Stone's prophets and I can't get over simple intimidation of other girls . No…they're gifted too . And powerful . "

Ming clenched her fist, determined . She wouldn't give in—he'd be hers and she'd actually utilize her powers to see him succeed in his quest . Venus knew she would .

This has been volume three of The Anime Trope System . The episodes will remain in order .

The next story arc is underway!

Clyde's story continues, and his mystery slowly unravels . The journey still has quite the way to go as it brings out more and more . It's certainly not limited to just one city or world .

Fate is a mysterious string .
