"Ok… Cool…" Wil was satisfied with the result.

Equipping the ring, he then looked at his stats. "229 Billion HP, 11 Billion attack power, almost 30 thousand mana points… Sigh…"

Wil let out a sigh, thinking about his past, "In my past three years of gaming, my overall stats didn't even reach half of this. With 85 Billion HP, I was foolish to think that I was the best and constantly challenged him…"

Remembering Bran's face made him angry for a second and clench his teeth, "I bet both of them must have laughed behind my back for my futile attempts back then…"

He doesn't know why. Maybe, he's still jealous of him or maybe, it's because he suffered defeat numerous times at the hands of a common man from a humble background.

Whatever the reason, whenever Wil thought of him, his blood would boil and he gets angered. "Once I capture this kingdom, I'll make sure to demolish…"

As if he retained his logic, he shook his head "no, it isn't the right time… Even if I harmed them, they will just migrate to a different kingdom and develop there.

That's why I need to let them develop freely in the Reverie kingdom while suppressing them in every other kingdom. So, when the time comes, I can weed them out with the roots…"

Taking a deep breath to calm down, Wil then mumbled, "There's no use of these unnecessary thoughts, right now. Let's just focus on the current issue. We'll go step by step. Revenge can wait…"

An hour later;

Nearly 14 thousand Elite soldiers gathered at the outskirts of the town. If it was before, Wil would have just added all of them into his party and teleport directly to the capital city.

However, now that the system restricted the maximum number to 500 until the world war is over, he only added the Royal knight level soldiers and General Gerrad into his party before setting out to the destination.

The capital city, Llyne Province;

A party comprising of nearly 500 soldiers of whom everyone is atleast level-300, stepped out of the temple, attracting the attention of the natives as well as the players who were busy performing quests to level up.

Everyone put aside their work and watched the soldiers, standing outside of the temple in a uniform manner as if they were waiting for something.

Then, they saw Wil stepped out, causing a commotion among the players. He then took out the Imperial sword from his inventory and opened its stats.

As soon as he clicked on Activate option, the system sent him a quest.

*Ding! You received a Quest, Claim the throne

Description: As a person who was passed down the Imperial sword, you are the rightful heir to the throne of Llyne. Defeat at least ten thousand soldiers, hundred royal knights, four generals, and the Queen.

Reward: Imperial Crown, Throne of Llyne.

Failure: Banishment from Llyne kingdom and all the properties acquired within the Llyne will be taken away. The Imperial sword will disappear.

Conditions for failure: Death

Accept?

"Yes." Wil immediately pressed on it.

*Ding! The battle will start in thirty minutes. You and your allies will be teleported to the outskirts of the city.

462 of them suddenly disappeared from the middle of the city.

Meanwhile, every player that belongs to the kingdom received a series of system announcements. 

*Ding! Player Time Traveler activated the Imperial sword and gained the right to claim the throne. 

*Ding! Join the Queen Rikilda and become a rebel to stop Player Time Traveler and his allies. 

Participation rewards: 100 fame points. Killing reward: 3000 fame points, 3000 gold coins, nobility promotion to Marquis, and an exclusive title.

*Ding! Help Player Time Traveler to claim the throne. Participation Rewards: none. Killing reward: 1000 fame points.

"Eh?" Even Wil was taken aback to see the announcements. All this while he thought he will rebel against the throne but didn't expect Rikilda will be labeled as a rebel.

As if that wasn't shocking enough, the next series of notifications made him stun on the spot. 

*Ding! General Alonzo supports your claim. His troops will join you shortly.

*Ding! General Bailey supports your claim. His troops will join you shortly.

*Ding! General Remia supports your claim. His troops will join you shortly.

*Ding! General Blaze supports your claim. His troops will join you shortly.

"Remia became a General?" Wil rubbed his eyes and looked at it once again to confirm.

Because he only participated in such war in his past life and never had the qualifications to challenge for the throne, he didn't know that the Generals under the opposing faction also had the option of choosing him.

If he knew, he wouldn't have bothered to spend hundreds of thousands of gold coins on the defense budget and train such a huge army.

More than that, he was shocked to see Remia, who was his loyal bodyguard that helped him out at the beginning of the game is now a General, which means a level-400.

He was still confused about her shocking improvement. Her improvement is even faster than him.

Back when he became the Mayor of Deloris, because of citizenship restriction, he wasn't able to bring her back with him. After that, his level and strength rose tremendously, and never cared about hiring her again as she won't be useful to him.

But now, she's back. This time, far stronger than before and in a position to help him out. He looked forward to meeting this seven-foot burly woman.

Wil didn't know that the reason for her improvement isn't by coincidence. It's because she was being possessed by Aerona. 

When she was resurrected by Wil, the leftover power of Aerona's boosted her talent to the maximum. And it helped her level up very quickly.

While Wil was excited within himself, meanwhile, thousands of players started to appear behind the army. In no time, more than fifty thousand players joined him.

After receiving the notification of Wil's victory over Evelon's king, his popularity was boosted tremendously. Everywhere, there are only praises of him, which is completely opposite of the situation on the first day.

In truth, Wil didn't kill that many people when compared to One. He only took care of 60% of NPC soldiers and a little over 10% of players.

Everyone just thought Wil stole most of the war points for himself. That's why they joined the others who were criticizing him.

However, on day 2, as the Zuweth invaded Evelon, most of the neutral players found out that they can gain war points even if they killed the other players, not much compared to NPCs but still, they are easy to kill than NPCs.

Even though they didn't support Wil, atleast, they backed out from it and mind their own business. And once they saw his achievement on the third day, some of those neutral players turned into supporters.

However, they didn't know that most of their comments are being recorded by a special team of the Scarlet Group and Wil isn't a merciful hero to forgive them.
