Clash With The Zombies (VI) : An Ominous Sign
The moment Nehar had completed his thousandth killing, chaos erupted in almost all of the Channels in the Tutorial.
Many Celestials and Stars once more started leaving their original Channels and joined Channel A53.
Seeing the three departing Celestials, Zephyris sighed and asked, "He did something again, right?"
[System Alert: The Celestial 'Vengeful Serpent' chuckles softly and says that person has completed killing a thousand zombies...]
[System Alert: The Celestial 'Vengeful Serpent' remarks that you will know everything once the 'World Rankings' are published.]
Zephyris chuckles dryly, "Why am I not surprised anymore?"
'So, Raven killed over a thousand zombies, even though he started the
This alone says volumes about his strength and capabilities....'

"At least this is ending....", Zephyris remarked casually.

[System: The Top-Ranking Participants from Region P are on a rampage...]
'Other than me and some guy named Lucas, the whole Ranking Leader Board got updated....
It started some moment later when I was fighting decisively, without caring about my defense or stamina at all...
First, that woman, 'Galena Rose' joined the fray and then one by one, almost everyone from rank one to ten joined in to wreak havoc....
But still, more than 230 people died from the last time....I don't know how are we going to continue further with so much less number of Participants...
There are still two Waves in this Tutorial and even the First Wave is still not completed....'
[System Alert: The Celestial 'Vengeful Serpent' remarks that Ranked Participants from 'Region P' are much higher leveled than other Regions, even 'Region C']
[System Alert: The Celestial 'Vengeful Serpent' says if all of the Rankers here, from one to ten are to form a
Listening to the Celestial, Zephyris asked in curiosity, "Does that mean if all of us, from rank one to rank ten make a stand against him, will we be able to defeat him?"
[System Alert: The Celestial 'Vengeful Serpent' bursts into maniacal laughter after hearing your sly ploy...]
[System Alert: The Celestial 'Vengeful Serpent' advises you to leave such thoughts behind as they think this type of petty trick will not work against him...]
[System Alert: An Unknown Star says even if all of them are to confront 'Him' unitedly, he will come out victorious while overwhelmingly suppressing all of his opponents.]
[System Alert: The Unknown Star further adds that 'Raven' hasn't shown the full extent of his capabilities till now nor did he fight with his maximum strength...]
[System Alert: The Celestial 'Vengeful Serpent' nods their heads in agreement.]
'It's really something that these Celestials and Stars are accepting his prowess openly like this....
Just as I thought before, he's the real deal whom I've to surpass...
I've no time for anyone else in these rounds....'
"So, you are saying even after becoming this much stronger, we'll not be able to stand up against him...", Zephyris remarked casually while swinging both of his swords towards a zombie with much greater ferocity than before.
"This makes me want to challenge and fight him more than anything..."
[System Alert: The Celestial 'Vengeful Serpent' silently watches your battle.]
'I'll become much more powerful than now, and only then I'll challenge him....'

[Divine Throne 'M^l@f$% B^s#$#@'s Domain....]
A lightly suited man was currently kneeling in front of a huge-sized Throne....without being able to look up to the 'Being' sitting in the Throne.
The man was silently cursing his misfortune that he was now in this situation out of every other sane possibility.
"Hissss!"
"So, you are saying they will try to revolt against my decision?"
The 'Being' sitting on the Throne asked in a cold voice.
Hearing that cold and senile voice, the man in the suit almost shat in his pants.
"I..don't dare my l-lady...."
The man replied in a trembling voice.
"YOU DON'T DARE VERMIN?"
The man on the ground could feel that the 'Being' on the Throne was gazing in his direction malevolently....one step wrong and he would die here, right now, without being able to do anything to stop that 'Being'.
"I WILL TEAR APART THE WHOLE ORGANIZATION IF THEY WISH TO REVOLT AGAINST ME...AND THEN THERE'LL BE NOTHING BUT ETERNAL DAMNATION ON THEIR FATES WHO DARED TO STAND AGAINST ME....DO YOU UNDERSTAND ANT?"
Waves of violent mana started spreading in all directions just from that 'Being's shout.
"I-I un-understand my lady..."
"NOW SCRAMMM ! "
The man didn't even try to look back as he started running away from the Throne Hall. He knew very well that if he stayed even for a second more, his head would roll off to the ground next to him.
The 'Being' on the Throne watched as the man hurriedly ran away to save his small, pathetic life from their clutches.
"START MAKING PREPARATION FOR WAR..."
A Shadowy Entity slowly emerged from the dense shadows behind the Throne and kneeled to receive the Orders from the 'Being'.
"It will be done, My Lady."

The Commander of The
"No, I am not", the man in question replied in a disgruntled tone.
The Commander was speechless after listening to his words like this.
"Lord Valdron, you've called the Commander of the
The Commander questioned him in a rough tone.
He was here for over forty-five hours just to know why Lord Valdron issued an
Even after waiting for hours and then listening to Valdron's rubbish theories spending more hours, right now the man was telling him that he didn't have any idea will these things even happen in the future or not.
"Commander Zillion, you're nothing but an impatient man. I don't know how you're still able to retain the position of the Commander in such a prime force despite being such type of person...."
"Stop spouting nonsense and just answer the question, Lord Valdron", Commander Zillion asked him while raising his voice this time.
"You've dared to raise your voice here, in my domain, Commander Zillion, that no one ever tried to do before, not even your Imperial Masters.
From now on, you're not welcome here...I thought about informing the Empire about the crisis, but now I think it's not necessary anymore.
NOW GET THE HELL OUT MY PLACE ! "
Zillion again raised his voice this time with much ferocity while suppressing his murderous intent to pull out his swords and behead this bastard right here, right now, "You're nothing but a delusional and whimsical bastard who doesn't even know what they're doing. You'll repent for this insult one day, Lord Valdron."
Commander Zillion rushed out of his domain, without even looking back.
"Repenting? Me? Huh....petty bastards...
The Stars have slowly started moving from their Original Positions in the Sky and you think I'll wait here to see the
I'll leave this place before that happens...
And as for the Empire, they can go and screw themselves...."
