Chapter 162 162 The Awakening [Part 1]



Alex groaned in pain but he quickly grabbed Bridget and threw her towards the door, Bridget's back hit the door and immediately she opened her eyes but Alex was already in midair with both of his legs aiming at her.

'I've already wanted to try this, a jump kick'

>BOOM!!<

Both of Alex's legs collided with Bridget's face and the door was smashed open.

"Arrgh..." Alex shouted and brace himself, this was the first time he was doing a jump kick and he didn't think about how he was going to land.

"Ouch..." Alex groaned as he stood up from the ground, Bridget was still on the ground struggling to stand on her feet, even though she had regeneration, she could still feel pain.

'Thanks a lot, sixth, your plan worked once again' Alex mumbled in his head.

'I told you it would work, as it was her ability, she's the only one capable of opening the door, so you just need to smash her alone with the door and it would be opened, but I didn't expect to see you flying around'

'I didn't fly around' Alex said as he picked up the pace before Bridget could get back on her feet.

Now that he was out, he wasn't going to keep fighting Bridget, so the first thing he was going to do was go to a place filled with humans so Bridget wouldn't be able to attack him.

"Damn she took me quite far," Alex said as he remembered this place.

The place they were currently in was an abandoned construction area, the whole area was abandoned for some reason even Alex didn't know about and he didn't care, but now he was angry that they were no humans around.

Still, he knew how to leave this area so he ran straight to the gate of the first building they were in, the day was still bright so Alex could see clearly, if it was night time then Bridget would have the advantage.

'Turn left, the exit is that way'

'You think I don't know, wait...how are you able to talk to me, I thought you could only speak to me when I'm unconscious or asleep' Alex asked.

"I really don't know and this had never happened with any of the past avatars, most of them didn't even know they were avatars as the world is now modernized, they had no reason to fight so they never discovered their abilities.

'But I saw the system screen, the screen that displays information in Nova Online, floating words in front of him, how do you explain that?'

'You saw the screen!! wait try checking your stats page and see'

'My stats page, this isn't Nova Online, how would checking my stats page work, we need to concentrate on leaving' Alex said.

'Just try it'

'Okay...stats page' Alex mumbled as he thought of his status.

Alex who was thinking about running away stopped as soon as the system appeared in front of him, it was unlike the time he saw the energy amplifier.

This time he stood there like a statue staring at the information in from of him, Alex wanted to move he was just too shocked to take a step, he was in the real world and he could see his status page from Nova Online.

'What does this means, I can see my status page, does this means...'

'The Demon lord has broken the seal completely'

'So what would happen now, we have to go help get people to safety, people would get hurt right, the demons...my family, my friends what would happen to the world' Panic hit Alex immediately.

'You have to calm down and think, you were not like this earlier, first let's get out of Bridget's range before she catches up to us'

'I was treating the story about the demon Lord as an impossibility, if this is true then I need to protect my family, I need to protect them' Alex mumbled.

'The Demon lord isn't here yet, remember what I told you, the chosen ones along with you would manifest your abilities first before others, so there's no need to panic'

'About the chosen ones, do you know them?'

'They are the five top players of Nova Online' the sixth spoke.

'Top five players, then Melissa is one of them, does she know about the demon Lord and other things, I need to get to her to explain things to her, we need her strength' Alex said.

'We don't need her strength, she's one of the chosen ones, do you think she would agree to you after hearing whatever ridiculous plan you have in your head, she was chosen by the gods who want you dead, I won't be surprised if she already knows everything'

'I should get home first, then I can decide my next move'

Alex picked up the pace once again as he dashed outside of the area, after a while he could now see a few humans walking around in the street after the abandoned area.

'I have a question, apart from me and the five chosen ones, how would the rest of humanity know about the demon Lord and his armies?'

'The elder gods have unimaginable powers, so I'm sure they would do something about humans, you might end up not witnessing any bloodshed or few bloodsheds or so'

'Then how did you lose your unimaginable powers, aren't you one of the elder gods?' Alex asked.

'It was five again one, they was no way I was going to win, you know I'm still sealed right, maybe after you defeat the demon Lord, you can come to free me' the sixth said.

'Free you, can a human do that?' Alex asked.

'You can after defeating the demon Lord, and the artifact is passed onto you'

'Artifact... isn't that what the king found before turning into a demon, what would I need the artifact for and can the demon Lord even be killed, you said he was sealed thousands of years ago right?'

'Yes he was sealed by humans with magical prowess, you guys here know absolutely nothing about magic, Nova Online mages learn magic through spell books, learning magic requires teaching and practice, and those spells mages in Nova Online cast are low-leveled and weak, none of them are true mages'

'I can also cast spells now that I have a Mana core, so what do you mean the spells are weak?'

'Mages have the ability to control a certain element which they have high affinity to, learning spells of that element brings the best out of them but now mages can learn all types of spells and most of them don't even know the element they have high affinity to, I don't mean anything bad by this but the humans of this era are one of the weakest ever'

'First most of them are afraid of fighting, the capable ones are part of the military, and the gods prepared hastily, most of the players who are going to fight against the demon Lord and his armies are weaklings, and take note this time they would be fighting with their lives on the line'

'In Nova Online all the players know if they get killed they would return after a certain time but if you get killed in real life, you are gone forever, not many people would still fight after hearing this' the sixth added.

'You are right, but don't underestimate humanity, we have fought through difficult times and this time would be no different... finally a cab' Alex mumbled as he stood at the side of the road.

Alex had been running for a long time and now he was in an area with humans, Alex quickly stopped the cab and drove straight to his house.

Alex sat in the back seat of the car as they drove back home, Alex wasn't in his right mind as he sat there thinking about everything that happened today.

Gods, Demon Lord, Magic, War... everything that was happening all seems surreal to Alex but it was all true and he was at the center of that truth.
