Chapter 246 - Liam Wall
It wasn’t even an hour after Alex’s talk with the king.
The hungry demons moved all their forces to the Berden Kingdom in that little time. Their allied villain guilds swarmed the capital, their numbers turning everyone’s hearts nervous and frightened.
In a red sky, a man with red armor stood. His whole body was covered in a thick defense, except for his head, which exposed his handsome face. He had a level close to one hundred, his class legendary.
He announced, “You have legendary class, don’t you? I’ve been itching for a good while to have a contest with you.
It’s so easy, isn’t it?! We need more challenges, don’t we?!” He laughed.
His nickname was [Liam Wall.]
Liam Wall’s legendary class was related to the old spirit, Hunyi, who hailed from a higher realm. In that higher realm, he was a part of [The Empire’s Wall], the sturdiest and the empire’s last defense.
He fell, the empire crumbled, and his soul drifted to weaker realms, eventually reaching the zealous player. The Old Spirit became the system that guided Liam Wall. And with that as his advantage, Liam Wall caused a ruckus in many lands.
The Empire’s Wall belonged to The Empire, no one else. For that reason alone, Liam Wall was mostly a villain. He never bowed and swore any oath. He never dared people to dictate his path, turning all quests into his only gain.
He was… the legend.
Yet, the hungry demons managed to rope him into their ranks.
Liam Wall’s fear was that no player could match him. He couldn’t find any other legendary players for their odd movements. Worse, he couldn’t move between the continents.
His Old Spirit’s System hadn’t mentioned anything about realms and continents teleportations yet. Everything was quite worrying for Liam Wall.
But then, he learned about the existence of the powerful legendary class. Even better, that guy would soon take part in the impending war.
How could Liam Wall miss such a chance?
And how could the antagonist not utilize it to their perfection?
“Legendary class,” Alex whispered, “It sounds fun… But…” Alex looked around, his eyes locking more than enough hungry demons.
In those ranks, he saw all his targets. What did it mean? It meant that the antagonists had called all their forces to the Berden Kingdom’s capital. There was a high chance that all hungry demons gathered here.
And Alex had a feeling that it was because of him and his wives.
[Once you lose someone precious, you will develop that fear.]
[And then, you will search for us.]
[We will welcome you with open arms, Alexander.]
The hungry demon’s words rang out in Alex’s mind. He met that guy in the Wolfen Demon’s soul. And, of course, he was above Alex, hidden behind the clouds as he watched the unfolding scene with interest.
Alex didn’t know about him, but he was nearly confident it was because of him… And because of that move, the other two kingdoms had received more leeway. They could use their ranks to secure safe zones… or run away.
Worse, Tomo Homie’s plan was already halfway thwarted with that move. With so many hungry demons, no resident could even dream of leaving the safe zone. Including the royal families, no one could sneak their way out.
The King and his family shared Alex’s thoughts.
The man with one hundred and fifty levels burst out from the castle, “Alexander Deathwill! You are the same as Elias Deathwill! The cause of people’s misery and grief! If you hadn’t come here, everyone would still have a chance to survive!”
His children, wives, and advisers glared at Alex and his wives while spitting out similar bullshit.
Alex’s face scrunched as some random guy compared him to Elias Deathwill, a person he hated genuinely.
But before Alex moved, his dullahan momma took a step forward. She stood at the helm of her family, her blond hair swaying before Alex as the wind gently pulled her golden streaks.
Sara smiled, “I hope other human kings aren’t similar to you, Berden Kingdom’s King. I’ve had the pleasure of seeing a few human kings in my life. But I never had a chance to personally be judged by them.
And now that I am under your blind eyes, I see a glaring similarity that you share with my father, the human king. You are the first the pass your burdens to someone else. You are the first to run away.
You just can’t accept your mistake, can you?” Sara sneered, her blue eyes shining like a lantern, which made people think she saw through their souls.
The King parted his lips, yet only one word left his mouth, “Don’t-” For Sara raised her voice, speaking to people’s ears and souls.
She continued in a pretty domineering manner, “If it weren’t for your incompetence, you wouldn’t face hungry demons with such little numbers. Half, if not most of them, would’ve been by your side.
You failed to make them proper parts of your kingdom. What about demi-humans? My husband’s friend told me that the most demi-humans had been killed in Berden Kingdom’s lands, for they weren’t so welcomed here.
If you were a king who could see beyond your nose, you would realize how much potential your kingdom holds. You would recognize the worth of demi-humans and their hearts.
But how could you? You can’t even understand the human heart, yet you are so proud of being human.
An asinine ruler. A loser. That’s who you are. Don’t even try to call my husband’s name again. Don’t try to shit your problems to him, for I utterly despise such acts.” Sara’s countenance turned stern, her eyes more intense.
The King had been trembling with billowing fury. No words came out of him, and he naturally couldn’t take a peek at Alex’s face. His family members were worse because they couldn’t keep their mouths closed.
But at this point, the residents, the players, the antagonists, and Deathwill Sisters couldn’t take them seriously.
Sara had utterly destroyed them for her husband’s sake.
