Chapter 741: Why Do We Always End Up Fighting?
Whether we were talking about those 14 female survivors, or those 27 soldiers, both had been completely robbed of their free will. And judging by the state of things, they might even turn their blades on me.
With that in mind I should start by securing them. Theres been enough deaths in Southern Plains already, I do not want to add to that tally.
System, Im looking for a tool here, do you have something to recommend to me?
Definitely, how about the famous webbing of the Dryders? For just 998 points, you can purchase a set that will immobilize everyone. Not only will they be taken out of the picture, they will be kept safe as well. All that for just 998, delivery included too~Upstodatee from n(0)/ve/lbIn/.(co/m
Sounds a little pricey, but if its to protect the hypnotized, I guess I have no choice.
998, right, Ill take it!
Still feels like a scam to me
Perfect, since our valued host is so decisive, the system has generously decided to just settle them on behalf of our valued host.
Having said that, a storm of white threads blasted out of thin air. Then through some unknown miracle, the webbing sought out the survivors, and finally trapped them in a cocoon of their own. Like an ant that had gotten trapped in a web, the more they tried to break free, the tighter their binding became.
Goddess, I see youve made your own preparations too. Yamabe smiled deviously, not at all bothered by his pawns being immobilised. I wanted to slowly have them commit suicide, but
Surrender, you arent a match for me. I coldly eyed him, a dangerous glint flashing across my eyes. It will be too late if you force me to act.
We wont know who will come out the winner till we try. Youd better be careful yourself, Goddess, you wouldnt want to get caught by me.
At that last word, he swiftly backed away, eyes closed as he did so Was he trying to activate his ability?
I had witnessed him use his ability multiple times already. Each time, he had to prepare for a few seconds. The longest Ive seen him prepare was ten seconds, and I had never seen him activate his ability instantaneously.
As long as I interrupted him during this period, his ability would fail to activate.
And that time was now!
I fired off a Fireball with a wave of my hands. In under a second, a roaring sphere of flames filled his entire field of vision this was my victory!
But if that was truly the case, wouldnt that mean that the temperature was now super low? Are they going to get frozen to death?
Not at all, every product your system has sold thus far has always been top quality. Theres no need to worry, dear valued host, the webbing wont harm them.
As she said, while her prices were criminal, they were never defective. With her guarantee, my worries were allayed.
As expected of my Goddess, I am in awe. Having countered every move he had made thus far, Yamabe clapped his hands in admiration as he continued, I will admit, I did not expect your abilities to be this wondrous, but I guess thats only to be expected of the Goddess I looked up to.
You arent too bad yourself, you scheming *******. Your ability can be activated instantly, cant it? But you made sure to always prepare for a few seconds when you demonstrated it before me. I bet you were already scheming against me then. Youre the one with the true ulterior motives.
I am not, and I did not. All that was just a precaution, I did not expect that we would actually fight.
Keep acting, keep acting. I glared at the boy hatefully. I really thought we could be friends.
Friends? Not lovers? He grinned evilly. If we arent lovers, then
He never finished his sentence, as the next moment later, a black hand pierced his skull without any warning.
Yamabe Takuma was dead
Silent as the night, he had no warning at all before my Shadow Guardian struck.
I looked at the boys lifeless face and sighed, my emotions a complicated mess right now. I bet you never realised that some main characters actually die at the end of their novels, especially the dark heroes. But I guess it doesnt matter now that youre dead
Explode!
Then the unexpected happened. Even though Yamabe was clearly dead, I still heard his thunderous yell echo across the cavernous floor. Following which, his corpse exploded along with the Shadow Guardian which wasnt able to return in time.
Thump
At the same instant that the Shadow Guardian died, I could feel a heavy pain in my chest, knocking me breathless for a second.
Too bad Im not such a useless main character.
