Chapter 31: Battle royal rising!
1817 Words
I was in a central plaza of the crumbling ruins. There was no one around here when I look and take a glimpse.
“Even if I move, I’ll be caught by someone… Let’s just wait here.”
I said and sat on a decently large brick stone and waited for other players to attack.
After waiting while she was drawing on the ground with and stick, My area detection skill was triggered here and there.
“You’ve come!”
I thought and raise my head, it was too late and the sword that was swung was already in attacking distance.
“I got you!”
If I’m just a low-level adventurer, I will never be able to block this attack, but I right now know many skills in my body. My body just moves smoother than before and received the sword attack using my sword.
“Burn in flames.”
“Ha?… U-uwaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!”
I use my fire magic and burn the man, thanks to my fire flash ability my firepower has increase. Just with a little moment the man reached the critical HP rate and was then transported back to the central park as an observer.
[Mayu: 22]
I gain another point, I have lots of powerful magic to use, but I’m too lazy to walk around and search for enemies. Staying here until there are no more enemies might be a great idea for me.
“Let’s continue the drawing.”
I get the stick and go back in drawing with a defenseless expression.
That’s right, I’m currently having fun drawing in the ground defenseless. It’s not like I’m doing it on purpose, but the result was, she caught a party of three this time.
Making a party is not against the rules. It was probably the result of wanting to make one of the party members get the reward.
A male swordsman ran, it was a straightforward dash.
“Lightning clap.”
They might be fast but my clapping is faster.
With my clap, three players collapse suddenly.
“It’s my victory.”
I then walked to the man with a sword. I get my sword with poison and stab his body. He immediately reached the critical HP rate because of the poison and got transported back.
The other two were then defeated in the same way.
[Mayu: 24]
“I became much stronger than I thought!”
I said and then went back to my place again.
After a few moments, I get tired of sitting around and decided to walk in a one-way street.
I front of me there were a lot of players, their numbers, about 50. Looks like these people are a party. This is my first time seeing this many in one group.
They seem to be magician class adventurers, and soon as they saw me they released their magic to me.
Probably, they hunted players on the one-way street like this a lot. Their movement had no hesitation into it and felt they were used to it.
I manage to defend myself by playing layers of earth walls.
At the time their magic attack has ended. I place my hand in front of me and cast my magic.
Time for payback!
“Wind magic: Towering tornado!”
Beneath the whole area, a green magic circle appeared and from its center, a huge tornado emerges.
My body started to lift, and I realized that I mess up.
The tornado was too powerful and destroy everything it passed by. All the magician class players were defeated. Including the players that were caught up, around 500 players were blown away.
[Mayu: 524]
In the center park I Axel, the defeated players became observers.
“That’s too much of a monster.”
“A ridiculous powered magic, her stats, what happened with it?”
“The reason she has those magic is that she might have some overpowered ability or skill set.”
“Still, that is a little girl, is that even possible?”
“What’s with that girl, she’s like some kind of great sage.”
“She’s like a walking fortress.”
Said the adventurers in the park.
The battle royal continues and there were still two hours left. After two hours all of the rankings will be decided.
Within that nervous situation.
An announcement with large volume echoes through the Island.
“Current number 1 is Mayu, number two is Keele and number 3 is Blaze. Everyone do you’re best and defeat them.”
I don’t know what this points system means. I mean this is a battle royal. The only remaining one will be the victor.
Blaze heard the announcement and look up in the sky.
“Why I’m in third place? What did I do?”
“It’s because you’re the best thousand Blaze!”
Keele who also defeated many players looks at the beautiful ocean view.
“Mayu? Does that mean someone is better than me? Who is born to be the god of this world and the other universe is only in second place? Unforgivable!”
Said, Keele.
“Mayu? Does that mean the girl I bump earlier? Expected from my rival.”
Akane muttered.
Even they just met, Akane is already feeling the rivalry between them.
Mayu then releases a cute sneeze.
“A… chooo!”
My nose feels itchy, I feel like someone is talking about me.
Now that I’m placed as number one I guess, many people will be afraid of facing me alone. I guess I will just rest in this tree.
Because of the towering tornado, I blew up in the sky and fall to a certain tree in the forest.
I just relax and lay my body in the tree and look up in the sky.
“I feel hungry.”
I muttered.
Beneath the tree, an adventurer wearing blue knight armor appeared, and with his spear, he cut down the tree where I’m resting. Resulting in the tree falling.
I quickly jump out and land safely with wind magic.
“You're that Mayu aren’t you… Prepare to be defeated here.”
“Blue knight armor? You’re that knight name, Malis.”
I said.
He was angered and protested:
“It’s Zalis! Spear Art: Rhino Thrust!”
Zalis run toward me and thrust his spear in my direction. the magical power was released from the spear and destroy the trees behind me.
I successfully dodge the attack.
But still, this man is in knight level of an adventurer like Retto. He is really strong.
Still too bad for him because I’m not that naive anymore. Using my abilities and skills I manage to make an attack that can destroy monsters or adventurers with a higher level than me.
“What is this? I just use one skill but my MP is drastically going down.”
Zalis said.
The reason for that is because of my Sloth ability. Sloth ability drastically multiplies the speed of decrease in surrounding system numerical values, most notably MP, excluding the users.
With my presence alone the decrease of MP of my opponent is doubled.
Then let’s try this.
I get a branch of a tree and thrust it to him.
“Spear Art: Rhino Thrust!”
The attack directly hit Zalis.
“She copied my skill, how is that possible.”
“That was a bit weaker than the spear thrust you did but it’s fine.”
This is the unique ability of Plunderer: I can steal skill from an enemy or allies. But the stolen skill can only be used once. It’s also required to see the skill first before I steal it.
Zalis stood up.
“You’re making fun of us, Spear art was a skill passed down only to our family in generations. How dare you mock on our family’s pride.”
He swings his sword and slashes the ground.
The ground started to c***k and divided into two.
“Spear art of destruction: Earth breaker!”
I try to fly by making a small tornado and lift me in the sky. It works which means I don’t need to walk in long-distances anymore. This is great.
Then let us use this…
Plunderer.
I use my sword and did the same skill.
“Spear art of destruction: Earth breaker!”
The ground was c***k and broken once again.
Zalis avoided the attack and then run in the giant trees to reach my current position.
He has gotten close and he attacks me with his spear.
“Spear driver!”
He came closer to me and use this chance to pull my sword.
“Sword skill: Cut!”
I manage to cut his head and he reaches his critical HP rate. He turned into a ball of light and transported back to Axel central park.
There he was fully healed and his body was back to normal.
Zalis was then coughing after that.
“Zalis was defeated by that little girl?”
“That little girl must be in sage level.”
“We really can’t underestimate people base on their appearance.”
Back in the battle royal.
I came back to the ground and look around my surroundings, All I see is the destroyed trees and mountains.
My area detection skill was then triggered.
This time it’s the red-haired girl I bump earlier.
“Red of destruction!”
She attacks me using her red sword, I receive the attack and block it using my sword.
This power and force. It’s heavy…
“Blue of limitless.”
Her blue sword was then pointed to me and released a powerful force, a force enough to push me down to the ground in full power.
“Heal.”
I heal my wounds and regain my HP back.
“Let’s do this my rival.”
“Rival? We just met.”
“But still were rival, I’m a swordsman and you’re a wizard. It’s perfect, right? We’re both in opposite on each other. Also, your strength. I want to surpass it. That’s why I decided to become your rival.”
“I don’t even know you’re name.”
“Sorry for that, My name is Akane, Red riding Akane the future sword saint.”
After her short introduction, she made a sword stance with her two swords.

[Akane: 93]
