The King's Mandate: Anomalous System

Many players gathered on the ground to witness the duel between the top 4th player and a level 40 player.

All of them formed a big circle around them as ants gathered around honey.

"What are the rules of the duel?" Das asked.

"No rules."

"Thanks for that"

'I can do anything I want with him.' thought Das.

"I will give you a handicap since you had the guts to challenge the great me."

"I will give you a handicap too. You still have a chance to run from here."

"It will be a 3 round duel. Each round will be of 3 minutes."

"Best out of 3? Then I can beat the shit out of you three times!"

"If 3 minutes are over, then the player who has high HP wins."

"I will send it within 3 minutes."

[The Duel Begins]

"Get ready to die, you shit!"

"....."

[Skill Harden Activated]

[Skill Sprinter Activated]

Byldger tried to cast a magic spell, but before he could do anything, Das dashed at him at full speed and punched him in the face. Byldger's head went flying, and his headless body fell to the ground.

[Adas Wins Round 1]

"What the hell did he do?!"

"Lord Byldger's head went flying!"

"In just one punch he...!"

"Who the hell is he?!"

"How can a level 40 player do that?!"

"He must be cheating?!"

Byldger's headless body regenerated, and he stood up. His face clearly showed signs of fear and terror.

[Round 2 Begins]

Das did the same thing he did in the first round, but this time Byldger blocked Das's punch with his sword.

"I don't know what type of skills you are using, but the same type of skill won't work on me again."

"Heh"

Byldger swung his sword; Das dodged by jumping backward.

"Got you!"

There was a huge fireball spinning in the sky, and it fell on Das, covering the area in the thick fog.

"As expected of Lord Byldger!"

"He used his strongest spell to kill him."

"No one can win against our Lord Byldger!"

"So that was your strongest attack?"

"How....how the hell are you still alive!?" Byldger said as he cast some more fireballs at him.

"Because I am a low-level player."

When that huge fireball fell on Das, Das used his sword skill and activated his Excalibur skill to defend himself from it.

"How dare you mock my shit! I am Byldger. I am a great Byldger. The strongest player in the game!"

"You are in 4th place. There are three more players who are stronger than you."

"I said I am the strongest!"

Byldger kept casting magic spells and attacking Das, but all his attacks were missed.

"You are nothing. Do you hear me? You are nothing."

"I will kill you! Fire Sword Slash!"

"....."

Byldger swung his sword. With every swing of his sword, it was releasing fire waves.

'Did he shout his attack name while attacking? Not to mention that it's a lame name. Is he a kid or what?' Das thought as he dodged the fire slashes.

"Ultimate Fire Sword slash! I will show you the wrath of the great Byldger."

His sword unleashed a giant fire wave.

"This is amusing."

'He is too much in his character. There's no way his real name is Bildegar, right?' Das thought as he blocked the entire wave with his sword.

"Why don't you die already! Multiple Fire Sword Slash!"

Byldger swung his sword multiple times, which unleashed multiple fire waves.

"Are you an idiot or---"

Das thought Byldger missed, but his real aim was not Das; it was Elena.

"This is what you get when you mess with the great Byldger!"

"Elena!"

Das rushed at Elena to protect her from the wire waves. He hugged Elena, and all the fire waves ended up hitting on his back.

"Are you okay, Elena?"

"Yeah, I am okay, what about you?!"

"Hahahahaha! This is what you get when you---"

"Byldgaaaaaaaaaaaar!"

Das raised his sword upwards, and as soon as he grabbed it, its length increased and kept increasing...the longest one so far.

Das swung his sword and slashed Byldger into two or wanted to, but Lily came in between to stop Das. His sword...or instead, he would have cut down lily if he hadn't stopped.

[Stop it, Adas!]

"Get out of my--"

[He already passed out. You won!]

Byldger fainted the moment Das swung his sword down.

[Adas Wins Round 2. Adas Won The Duel]

"I won?"

[Yeah, you won. Elena is okay, too, so calm down!]

"Huh?"

Das didn't realize it, but that day when the red slash from his mask disappeared, his left eye colour changed from green to red, which was why Lily was acting strange at that time. The red-eye changed back to green immediately, but it is still red right now.

[Adas. Listen to me. Elena is okay!]

"I get it. Why are you repeating it?"

[Elena is okay!]

"Are you okay? Because you are acting strange!"

[I am fine. Even if something happens to me, you will come and save me, right?]

"Yeah"

Lily was trying to keep him busy so that he could forget about Byldger. His red eye changed to green soon after.

[Let's go now]

"Okay"

"Hey...how did he win!"

"What with his sword!"

"And he was talking to himself!"

"Is he mentally ill or what!"

"But he defeated the top 4th player!"

"..."

[They can't see me or hear me, so they are thinking you are talking to yourself]

"....."

"Adas!"

"El--Reina"

"You won!"

"Of course, I won. No one can get away if they look down on my Ele--Reina."

["You were so cool!"] both Lily and Elena said in unison.

"I am always cool. Now..."

All the guild's members were trying to wake Byldger up.

"I will let you guys go this time, but next time I see any of you, I will hunt you down!"

Das grabbed Elena's hand, walked away. The crowd was gathered around them, but all of them moved away as they both passed through the crowd.

When they reached the portal, no one dared to go in because they heard, 'A crazy guy is hunting down those who try to enter the portal.'

Das, Elena, and Lily entered the portal.
