After I make the perfect preparation with the team, the team decided to get some rest before tomorrow we're going to take on the boss. Of course, the one still working alongside me is Fangaztaz because the two of us are in scouting duty.
Making sure that Mona is not doing something that might throw a wrench to our plan. After all, we purposefully tells her a bit of our plan so that she can buy it and then tell the king about it... But we still need to keep her in check so that if she notices something wrong, we can immediately take her out of the equation entirely.
"Fangaztaz. Get ready to use your portal. I see that she's entering the King's Room."
"Alright boss. It's time to make or break it with her."
Fangaztaz immediately acted upon my command. He did two things simultaneously. Eavesdropping and also preparing an immediate execution... Of course, I know more than what I'm letting on. But, that's exactly the reason why we're doing this...
'Father. I am here once again.'
'My Daughter. What information have you found now from the travelers?'
'Yes Father. They're planning their attack soon. They're inviting me to join in on the attack as well. What should I do with that invitation? If I don't join it, it might looks suspicious as I'm still on your side. If I accepted, it might be possible for them to sniffs it out eventually.'
'Interesting information my daughter. Of course, it's up to you to decide to join or not to join. But, didn't you think that, my daughter. They've been sniffing on you a while back? You always come here with uninvited visitors...'
'Eh? What do you mean father? I'm always coming here alone.'
'Of course, of course... But... You, leaked the information without knowing, my daughter... For that reason...'
We can hear that some tension started to rise. It's not hard to know what's going to happen to Mona right now. I look at Fangaztaz and he still to have been listening intently. Preparing to pull the trigger to do something...
"Make the call."
"Eh? You want me?"
"Of course. I couldn't give a damn. So, you make the damn call, Fangaztaz."
"Okay... Attacking... Now!"
Immediately, without any hesitation whatsoever... Fangaztaz opens tons of portal using his skill to the king's lair and immediately rains tons of bullets down. At the same time, he looked at me and nodded.
"I leave the rest to you."
"I guess so."
I immediately use Godspeed and Phantom Flicker to flick through the wall and come to Mona's aid immediately. I can see everything clearly despite so many bullets are falling down in slow motion. I looked at the King... The small king who's bearing so many burnt scars on his body... It was shocking to see. Not to mention, he has his eyes on me when I enter the room...
I immediately realize what that spells out to me. He's so strong even without the Demon Egg that he's been taking care of...
The obvious move here is to take Mona out and blast the wall open to get more reinforcement. But that does mean that I cannot make the first move immediately. I want to make the first move. So, I uses my Merciless Dragons to blow open a wall and take Mona away...
The first dragon full slams the wall and bust open the wall to the king's lair where everyone can see what's going on. The second dragon took her out with protection. The moment that happened, I immediately put my Mask Down and went full speed straight toward the Dwarf King...
All of this takes less than three seconds to execute...
"You didn't see this coming, didn't you?"
I said that to the king as I fully intent to decked him with a full powered right hook toward his burnt face..
"I see everything coming from the moment you enter this castle, boy. Never expect that an old king like me to not have the knowledge like this!"
The king just lightly raises his left arm to block my full powered right hook. Of course, it shook me when I saw what blocks me exactly. It's a mechanical arm that's fully black in color.
"You have enough knowledge to know what this material aren't you? It's the rarest form of all material. Zero Edge. It's that."
Zero Edge is the rarest form of material that can be found in the game. No one can actually obtained it just yet. I think the reason for that is because it's locked behind this king right here...
The reason why Zero Edge is the rarest form of material that can be found in the game is very simple. It's not really a traditional like material where you need to physically shape it using tools. Instead, Zero Edge is more like a Nanotech that is only limited to the amount and imagination that the user has. The quality of Zero Edge, however, depends on how good your smithing skills are. So, in the hands of me and the king of dwarf... It's naturally going to be the best thing in the world...
"Now then. You realize how rare my equipment and how powerful it is. Do you still wants to continue?"
"... You cannot expect me to stay quiet after looking at that rare material. In fact, it just wants to make me crush you even more... So much more that I'm feeling like I need to go all out from the get go."
I don't like to use my BP release right now. Because I deemed it as premature. But I know that my attack ain't gonna do damage to the king due to the Zero Edge Nanotech. He might have so much amount of that thing that I cannot even land any speck of damage...
Not even an attack from Fangaztaz would deal any damage to him. Because Nanotech is one, with the owner...
But it doesn't mean that I'm going to give up though.
Once again, I dashed forward and try to do a point blank vertical punch to bait some reaction... The King was baited into blocking my attack with his arm once again, but that is when I immediately thrust my right leg with full momentum. The king Zero Edge cover his chest. But a contact was made. Smashing him through his throne.
The King just sat on the ground for a bit before looking at me sinisterly.
"You crossed the line just now, boy... It's time for you to received your punishment."
