◇◇◇◆◇◇◇

 
The sky was a clear, flawless blue.

But below, at the foot of the 9th Extermination Unit’s outpost barrier…

Bang! Boom, bang!

…explosions from skills and magic rocked the ground.

Clang! Clank! Clang!

…the sharp sounds of metal clashing against metal rang out.

『Uwahaha! Die! Die—!』

The cold, black ash of the Fallen, imbued with pleasure, thrill, and killing intent…

“Filthy Fallen scum! I’ll kill you all!”

…mingled with the hot, red blood of the Extermination Unit members, fueled by rage, hatred, and a thirst for vengeance.

Splat, splat!

The metal barrier and the parched earth were drenched in gore.

“They’re endless.”

Swoosh!

Arthur, having just taken down three Fallen in one swift stroke, muttered, her face contorted in a grimace.

Noah, who was crushing Fallen skulls with fists wreathed in holy fire, chuckled.

“Trials and tribulations are endless, after all.”

“Hmm.”

Endless trials and tribulations…

Arthur observed the endless tide of Fallen, no matter how many they cut down they still kept coming like an endless writhing mass of disgusting cockroaches, a veritable black wave.

“You’re right.”

Arthur agreed with Noah, wiping the filthy ash from her sword.

『Hehehe, hehehehe! That girly-looking one is mine!』

『Then I call dibs on that white-haired one spewing that disgusting holy power!』

『Ooh! Me too, me too! Let’s share!』

Disgusting creatures.

You are filth that has no place in this world.

Arthur raised her sword and channeled mana into Excalibur.

Whoosh!

Golden mana surged, scattering brilliant light.

The mana condensed, solidifying into sword energy…

Wooong!

…and Excalibur resonated, imbuing the sword energy with holy power.

The Fallen who had been approaching Arthur and Noah recoiled as if burned.

『Kya, kyaaagh!』

『Gah! I-it burns!』

They had been scorched by Excalibur’s holy power.

『B-but it’s not even holy power! How…?!』

Amidst the agonized cries of the Fallen, one shouted in disbelief.

Arthur glanced at Excalibur in her hand.

She heard the voice of the Lady of the Lake echoing in her ears.

– How did you enter this lake? Never mind, let’s treat your wounds first.

– …You’re covered in wounds again. Have you been fighting?

– You said you don’t have a name, right? Then I shall give you one.

– Arthur… Arthur Pendragon. This is the name that will share your destiny.

The woman who had given her, a nameless, perpetually wounded child, a name, sight, and a holy sword…

…her image, with her beautiful blue hair, eyes, and smile, flickered before her amidst the writhing Fallen.

Vivian, why did you give me the holy sword, the qualifications of a ruler?

There were many others more worthy of wielding the holy sword.

For example, the Round Table she currently belonged to… had many candidates for King Arthur, those with talent, character, and distinguished lineage, all vying to uphold the legend.

[T/N: i hate the author i really do with this arthur is a woman/man shit hes makin my job so fuckin hard.]

She, on the other hand, had nothing.

No parents, no family, no talent, not even a name, something everyone else took for granted.

She was a vagrant, a nobody wandering the gutters.

That was who she was.

But Vivian had dismissed all of that as irrelevant and healed her wounds.

She gave her a name. She gave her sight. She gave her a holy sword.

And after bestowing upon her the qualifications of a ruler, she vanished.

‘Vivian, perhaps I am not worthy of being a ruler.’

She had trained relentlessly to repay her kindness.

She defeated every candidate for King Arthur in the Round Table.

She earned the recognition of the Round Table’s guardian knights and was chosen as the next successor.

And… she earned the title of ‘Heir to King Arthur’.

But she still couldn’t unleash the true power of the holy sword.

‘But I will persevere. Vivian, did you know?’

‘Before entering Arena Academy, I was filled with doubt.’

She believed that she, who couldn’t even unleash the holy sword’s power, was unworthy of being a ruler.

She had resolved that if she couldn’t unleash the holy sword by the time she graduated…

…she would return it to the lake where she resided.

‘But then, someone caught my eye.’

Lee Yu-jin.

The man who had defeated her and Seo-yeon, strong contenders for top student, and rightfully claimed the title.

The man who possessed immense power yet retained a kind and gentle heart.

The man who, even in the face of mortal danger, never retreated and always fought against evil.

‘That man rekindled my wavering spirit. So, Vivian, watch over me. Watch as the coward you named ascends to the throne.’

“As the Heir to King Arthur, I declare.”

[The talent 「Heir to King Arthur (S)」 speaks.]

“From this moment forth, this place is my paradise, a sanctuary for knights.”

Arthur gripped Excalibur with both hands.

He lowered the blade, which had been pointed towards the sky, pointing it at the ground.

“All evil here shall be banished from paradise.”

[The talent 「Heir to King Arthur (S)」 gathers power.]

[The talent 「Wielder of the Holy Sword (S)」 gathers power.]

[The talent 「Heir to the Fairy King (S)」 gathers power.]

[The talent 「Fairy Eyes (S)」 gathers power.]

[The talent…]

[….]

[…]

Immense mana surged from Arthur’s body.

The earth trembled as if an earthquake had struck.

Wooong!

Excalibur resonated.

Golden waves spread outwards.

Wooong, wooong! Wooong─!

The resonance intensified and the waves spread further.

『What… Kyaaagh!』

Golden flames erupted on the bodies of the Fallen touched by the waves.

『Fire! Put out the fire!』

A holy flame, similar to the white flames of ‘Holy Fire’, but even more powerful, incinerated the Fallen.

“…I feel stronger.”

“My depleted mana is being restored…”

“What is this feeling? Exhilaration?”

On the other hand, the Extermination Unit members felt their strength surge, empowered by the golden mana as if blessed.

Arthur, observing the empowered members, thought of Lee Yu-jin, fighting alone at the 1st Extermination Unit’s outpost.

‘Lee Yu-jin, just wait a little longer. I… no, we will be there soon to help you.’

She thought, raising Excalibur high…

…and when the waves reached every living being on the battlefield…

…she plunged Excalibur deep into the earth.

She then activated her ultimate skill.

“Avalon.”

A giant Golden Apple tree blossomed on the ground…

…stained with the ashes of Fallen and the blood of Extermination Unit members.

◇◇◇◆◇◇◇

 

『…What… is this?』

Greed stared at Yu-jin, dumbfounded…

…muttered in bewilderment…

…and collapsed.

Thud. Roll.

Greed’s head, severed from his body, rolled lifelessly across the ground.

It came to a stop and their eyes met.

His pupils were dilated, lifeless.

Yu-jin was about to breathe a sigh of relief…

…but instead, he quickly discarded his destroyed equipment – casualties of Speed Limit Removal – and took out new gear.

After equipping 10 Aegises, the Atlas Armor, and Thunderbolt he hurriedly transferred boxes of grenades to where Greed’s head lay.

Terra’s voice, laced with confusion, rang in his ears.

– Master, isn’t Greed dead?

‘No, he’s not.’

Greed…

『…Oh?』

…had death prevention items.

『Hmm, even Kali let her guard down once. But you’re not giving me any openings.』

Greed’s dilated pupils constricted.

Black flames erupted from his head…

『Did you know? The sensation of your body regenerating never gets old.』

…and his body was instantly restored.

Yu-jin thought of a particular item.

‘…Is it the Phoenix Feather?’

The ‘Phoenix Feather (S)’ was one of the rarest death prevention items, practically impossible to obtain.

It revived the user a few seconds after receiving a fatal, or rather, instantly lethal, blow.

‘He used the Phoenix Feather, so he has five items left.’

Of course, befitting a Named like Greed, he didn’t just possess death prevention items. He had a vast collection of rare items.

That’s why players in the game’s online community called him the ‘Treasure Fallen’.

Because if you managed to kill him, you obtained all his items.

However, killing him was incredibly difficult.

Six death prevention items…

…countless rare items…

…and he was the sixth strongest among the 12 Named, even in terms of physical abilities alone.

So, he had another nickname besides ‘Treasure Fallen’.

‘Newbie Slayer.’

It was only natural.

Immense physical strength, cockroach-like survivability with six resurrections and on top of that, all those item buffs.

Even veteran players dreaded facing him.

It was a true nightmare for newbies.

And… that newbie nightmare was now standing before Yu-jin.

‘This is crazy.’

He had managed to use a surprise attack to burn through one of his resurrections but there were still five left.

Not just five.

A whole five.

‘…What should I do? He won’t let his guard down again.’

He was at a significant disadvantage.

Fallen, true to their easily agitated nature, tended to become arrogant the more power they gained.

But Greed, this bastard, was incredibly cautious, unlike any other Fallen he had encountered.

Even with death prevention items, if he sensed a hidden card…

Rumble, BANG─!

『…That attack is different from before. Still, it’s better to be safe than sorry.』

…he would actually dodge, unlike other Fallen who would simply tank the attack.

And the reason Yu-jin was at such a disadvantage…

『That gun looks nice.』

…was Greed’s ability to steal items.

The only saving grace was Yu-jin’s ‘Infinite Items’ cheat, both a blessing and a curse.

Click.

『An A-rank firearm item… What a rare find.』

Greed examined the Thunderbolt he had just stolen using the skill ‘Steal’ with a curious expression.

But only for a moment.

『…Hmm? The item is disappearing?』

He looked down at his hand in surprise…

…then tilted his head, looking at Yu-jin curiously.

『Interesting… an ability that prevents me from taking items. You have quite the intriguing skill.』

Greed’s eyes gleamed with avarice.

『Lee Yu-jin, I want that ability of yours.』

At the same time, a ‘ding’, a System notification sound, rang in Yu-jin’s ears and a minimized system window appeared in the corner of his vision.

– Master, a Great Achievement Event Quest has appeared!

‘…What’s the content?’

– Survival.

‘For how long?’

– 5 minutes. You just have to hold on for 5 minutes. Reinforcements are on their way.

…5 minutes?

『Lee Yu-jin…』

Various weapons materialized around Greed.

Swords, spears, axes, hammers, guns, cannons… countless weapons, all aimed at him.

‘5 minutes is way too tight.’

He used telekinesis to lift the pebbles around him.

『Please die by my hand! And give me that ability!』

And as Greed charged towards him…

Ding-dong.

Speed Limit Removal [ON / OFF]

…he activated the cheat.

He then flung the pebbles he had lifted with telekinesis towards Greed.
