Chapter 185: Attempt Failed



Chapter 185: Attempt Failed

( Back then. )

< Realm of Disaster >

Draven fights using his Black Shadows and Vermillion Flame, he summons so many Black Shadows to fight the Disaster King as he destroys them one by one.

Donovan tries to use the Vermillion Flame, using it to burn the King, but sadly, that Disaster King is actually talented in the fire element, as he raises his hand and turns off the fire.

Seeing that, Draven then uses his water magics to shoot the Disaster King he splashes it all into his face while using his Aether-based skills to hurt him, but still, the Boss is so difficult to fight, he even gives Turok, Terra, and Torhn a very hard time as quickly deals with them, using his blade, the Disaster King slashes them all which create a huge explosion, the damage is so damaging that Donovan, with his 'Aether Black Shadow Symbiotic Armor', an SS item in his arsenal, had to use its defense skill to even let him come back with very low HP.

...

( Present. )

" Betzalel... Betzalel! " Raksha calls Donovan's name as Donovan is still on the verge of death despite his HP increasing.

He is reminded of his battle with the Disaster King, he recounts what happened as he realized why he's losing.

"( That bastard..., he's not using his full power... )" Donovan says as he remembered seeing the Disaster King's level increase from Level 133 to immediately rise up to Level 240.

A great increase, which shooks Donovan to the core at that time, his mind is blown to see such a huge raise of power which made him bathe in fear at that time, a mistake that almost costs his life right now.

As Raksha heals him and helped with the location they healed him, which is the [Pond of Nature], it helps recover Donovan back into his primed state, returning back his mind to reality as he gasps so loudly and shouts.

" GODDAMMIT!!! " Donovan shouts in his anger, as he recounts his defeat.

" Betzalel... " Raksha calls him, he points at his body, which Donovan looks below and realized.

< " User Donovan is naked, equip some clothes now! " >

...

( Minutes later. )

" Donovan wears his Draven armor again, as he then sits on the stone chair, waiting for Ragitor who is currently busy.

Donovan still recounts his loss, he realized that this Event Quest is so much different than the usual quests he's been through.

While reminiscing about it, Ragitor then comes in and sits in front of him.

" I'm sorry, Betzalel... " he says from his heart.

" I don't know what to say, but it seems I have given you the impossible mission that even almost cost your life... "

" Yeah, Ragitor... "

" But from it, I at least learned some things, despite some of me still having fears regarding my battle with the [Disaster King]. " Donovan tells him.

" [Disaster King]? " Ragitor asks when Donovan says it.

" Yes, [Disaster King], the ruler of that realm. "

" I faced him, that muscular and monstrous man-like king with a horned head and bat-like wings, he looks like a de- "

" Wait! " Donovan says as he then looks at Ragitor.

" That m*therf*ker is a- "

" Yes, Betzalel... " Ragitor says.

" I may never meet him during my attempts, but those before me once told me about him, the ruler of that cursed realm. "

" The [Disaster King], one of the demons of old. "

" One of the beings regarded as the Dark Gods of the Old Era, the Era before Ragnarok. " Ragitor tells Donovan which shooks him as his suspicions were true.

" Shit! it's a demon! a Dark God!? " Donovan suddenly felt cold, his skin shivered as he realized what the hell he just faced.

" Goddammit, Ragitor, why you didn't tell me that the realm will be ruled by such a thing!? " Donovan asks Ragitor angrily Ragitor tells him that like he said earlier, he never once met the king during his attempts, but one of his predecessors did as he returned, using the 'Keys of Realm Escape' to return and tell his people about what he faced in that realm, mentioning the [Disaster King] after coming all way through the realms' very lands.

" I'm really sorry about this, Betzalel... "

" The reason I didn't tell you earlier is because of my lack of proof regarding the fact that the realm has its ruler, not even mentioning my predecessor's warnings to you, for that very warning is still regarded as a myth to my people ever since, but now... "

" That warning is true, after all, huh? " Donovan asks as his rage gets low, he realized that Ragitor is telling the truth, his face and expression tell it all for he feels very regretted about this.

" Right again, Betzalel, I should've at least told you, despite my doubts about it... "

" Please, punish me for my doubts, I will pay you back hundred times for my mistakes if I had to... " Ragitor fully bows into the ground in front of Donovan, he sees him bowing before him and the System then shows him the options as it pauses time for a sec.

" So it has come to this, to think you would make these things again. "

" Since it happens, I believe you want me to make a critical choice, didn't you? " Donovan asks the System as it gives the choices.

< (!) Message (!) >

< [Options]: >

< In this scenario, the User will be given two options, this is crucial since this would likely determine the User's fate and once it is made, the User can't back out, even if the User can. >

< Options: >

< 1) Forgive Ragitor and he will swear allegiance to you. >

< 2) Kill Ragitor and the rest of the Orcs to increase your EXP >

...

" Really? System? " Donovan asks the System as he sees the option for of course since he's a good boy, he chooses option 1.

< " Are User Donovan sure about this choice? These orcs could betray- " >

" I choose option 1, thank you very much! " Donovan quickly answers before the System whines more.

" Now, unpause this and continue from where we left off! " Donovan orders the System as time flows again and continues the talk between Donovan and Ragitor as he forgives him, realizing that things like that are simply just something out of his knowledge and control, no need to quickly kill him, for now.

...

( Meanwhile. )

< Realm of Disaster >

Disaster King sees his hand, he sees his hand scarred by Draven's Aether back then.

" [Aether Slash], huh? " he says while recounting Draven's skill name.

" Where have I heard it before? " Disaster King asks while looking at the skies.

" It's been a long time for me and my subordinates, caged within this realm. "

" I thought after years, the seal of this realm will weaken as I will destroy it and once again plunge the world into disaster. "

" If it was because of those people, those bastards, I won't wait this long, especially... "

" That 'white bastard' from back then, yes... "

" He who also uses this 'Aether' and 'Shadows'... "

" Just like this 'Draven' guy who attacked me just now... " Disaster King reflects, for this is the first time, in ages, someone could ever harm him again.

" Things are getting interesting, I wonder what will I see in the future, kukuku... "
