Chapter 163 - Life and Death Decision (2/2)

”System, use my unused experience points to max out Fenrir and Charisa's levels.”

Ding!

Aurus did not know if it was an illusion or not, but he had a feeling that the commands of the system become instantaneous when it felt like Aurus was in danger. It did not take long for multiple notifications to appear in front of his field of vision.

'A lot of unused experience points has been consumed.'

'Fenrir and Charisa have both reached the MAX level.'

'Fenrir and Charisa have both met the necessary requirements and are ready to evolve.'

After closing all of the notifications he had received, he then commanded, ”Evolve both Fenrir and Charisa. Use up all of my unused experience points after that to raise their levels as high as possible.”

Ding!

Whoosh! Whoosh!

For some unknown reason, the speed at which Fenrir and Charisa had transformed into their evolved forms only took an instant, which made Aurus question the idea of the system acting faster when necessary. Nevertheless, he put this idea to the back of his head after removing notifications regarding Fenrir and Charisa's evolution, as well as their increase in level.

”Since both of you don't have any teleportation abilities, I'll keep you in the system for now,” Aurus said to the both of them, with them disappearing in front of his field of vision not long after. He did not wait for their approval since a matter of survival was currently happening, a matter which would dictate the alliance's life and death.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Pulling out all the stops, Aurus activated all of his Ruler skills, gobbling up quite a lot of his FP at the first activation. Fortunately, the rate at which his FP regenerated was faster than how much the Ruler skills consumed, allowing him to maintain a state of always having full FP. Soon after that, he hastily teleported towards the main hall.

…

Whoosh!

It did not take a lot of teleportations for Aurus to arrive at the main hall, being greeted by the sight of almost all of the members of the alliance congregated with their equipment sets being worn. Even the Pillar level members were no exception, wearing their 'Blessed by the Heaven' sets, just like the Executive level and normal members of the alliance.

Seeing as everyone had already worn their equipment sets, Aurus decided to wear his equipment set as well, opening up his weapon inventory to bring out his 'Marquis of Magical Destruction' set for everyone to see. It did not take long for him to equip set, enveloping him in a layer of white light. Of course, at the very moment he was finished equipping this set, the aura he exuded exceeded the aura all of the Pillar level members could exude combined. Nevertheless, one certain Inanimate could still surpass his aura.

Whoosh!

Not long after equipping his equipment set, the sight of a crimson red branch appeared in the center of the main hall, radiating an aura of power that exceeded Aurus' aura by quite a bit, allowing everyone to know that there was not much difference between the combat power of Aurus and the crimson red branch, slightly stupefying everyone. Nonetheless, since they were at war, the fact that two members at the leader level of combat power made them feel at ease.

”It seems you've showed your full power, Aurus.” A familiar voice resounded throughout the main hall, making Aurus smile inwardly as he replied, ”I can't lose out to you now that I'm the vice leader of the alliance, right Herellia?”

”Well, that's true,” Herellia replied with a light chuckle, only to be stopped as a stifling aura swept over the whole alliance base, making everyone silent in an instant as they looked towards the direction of the aura's origin.

Once they looked at its direction, they could all see a wolf with jade green fur standing in front of what seemed to be a giant army of Inanimates, not losing out to the number of members the Tempest Branch Alliance has. On the left side of the wolf was an ethereal looking being that was floating, while on the right side was a docile looking rabbit…if one ignored the murderous aura emanating from it.

Seeing as how the wolf was just standing there, Herellia looked at everyone in the main hall before saying, ”Everyone, follow behind me.”

Whoosh! Whoosh!

In that instant, all of the members of the Tempest Branch Alliance had come out of the alliance base, coming face to face with the army of the wolf in front of them. At the very front of this was Herellia, looking at the large wolf at the front of the army opposite her.

”You have two choices.” After a moment of tense silence between the two, the wolf opened its mouth and started to talk. ”You could submit to me and let the Tempest Branch Alliance be spared from destruction, or…fight.”

”Hmm…” Herellia used some of the energy in her body as a carrier of her voice, allowing everyone to hear her reply. After a few seconds, she then replied, ”How about we choose…the latter?”

Whoosh!

Soon after, an aura of power that surpassed what she showed before started to emanate from her, putting all of the members of the alliance at ease. As for the wolf on the other side, it remained silent for a bit in ponderation before opening its mouth to say…

”So be it.”

”Destruction it is.”
