Versatile: Alternate World

Chapter 989 Rematch (I)

We found ourselves on a long and dark passageway. I tried to remember the direction the light was pointing from when the branch was used earlier. Of course, we didn't keep using it as it is very eye-catching and any enemy will take sight of it just by looking at the direction of the branch and that alone is enough for the enemy to know there are other people besides him.

"Are you sure this is the right path, Manato? I am not doubting your good memory but this path is long and narrow. Is it the path we are looking for?" Riko frowned as she tried to look at the end of the passage fully.

"Yeah. I am sure of it. Besides, there is no other path aside from this area that we can pass through unless we decide to make our path and break the walls which would make a big stir. This is the only path that makes sense."

Lucia tried to detect any enemies on the path or even some traps that might cause us to be in trouble. After a while she shook her head, allowing us to know that the passage was safe.

As the only one who wields a shield from our group, Akira takes the vanguard. I followed him behind to immediately react in case things got troublesome and to also help him if things got really bad. As for the rearguard, Pandora volunteered to be the one to protect everyone's back since she has one of the highest defenses, second only to Akira out of all of us and she can hit real hard against enemies, making her a good guard against any enemies.

Since we can only enter one at a time, our position is much easier to defend with both ends. The only downside is that we are vulnerable above, below, and from side to side. However, we can only do it like this as we cannot move together aside from lining up.

Thankfully, like Lucia's detection result, the passageway was safe and it wasn't as long as we thought. We managed to get out of that place after walking for 2 minutes straight.

"Where are we now?" Father looked around after we managed to get out of the narrow passageway.

"Not sure either. This place is giving me the creeps," Rika readies her magic sword while she continues to look around.

"Be careful everyone. Although invisible to eyes of everyone, the darkness power seems to be getting stronger and stronger," Lucia warns. Her arm even transformed into the same sword. However, it seems she has a bit of good control on it compared before, she doesn't look as tired as well.

There's still no sign of King Arthur or anything but the feeling of dread is much stronger here compared earlier. There is only one thing clear, he is nearby.

As we continue to enter the deepest area of the ruins, we soon realized that the place we are walking in resembles a throne room. The only thing that makes it less like one is the overgrown grasses everywhere, the broken pieces of furniture that are scattered all over, and even the curtains and red carpet looks more moldy than ever.

"A throne room?" Mila frowned.

"It makes sense there is a throne since he is a king, yeah?" Akira nonchalantly said.

"You got a point there, kid. Because he is a king, he might have decided to make a throne," Queen Tanya said as she materialized her scythe.

Izmir and Renatta seems to have also noticed the irregularity of the place and the danger before us that they started switch into their combat stance.

"I don't. The sooner you die, the faster it is for me to solve this sh*t."

I then deflected my Versatile Weapon with his weapon before changing it to a gun and fired multiple barrage of bullets. He easily sliced and destroyed the bullets I fired off which made me a bit angry. Then, volleys of arrows suddenly came raining down followed by multiple magic spells behind the arrows coming down to King Arthur.

"Too slow..."

With a single snap, all arrows that should be heading straight to him, lost their momentum and fell to the floor while the magic spells that was being shot disintegrated into the air.

Then Izmir appeared again and fired multiple volleys of ice spikes straight to King Arthur. She didn't even make any sort of fancy methods of firing it, she is doing it with pure intention of killing King Arthur.

Still, those are not working. The moment the ice spikes are about to reach him, all of them melts which results to only water reaching him which is not even making any damages to him. He even brushed his hair with his fingers and grinned.

"Even if you all try to gang me up and try to fight me, you lot are just powerless against me."

Father and Mila joined together as the two tried to get close to him. They managed to get close and launch a series of punches and kicks but strange enough, King Arthur dodges all of them without even standing in his throne.

"Weaklings, begone."

A shockwave occurs and before they would hit Father and Mila, Akira immediately came to cover them from it.

That's when Queen Tanya, Pandora, Lucia and. Lina came to attack him simultaneously. It was a switch in attacking him that allowed them to jump in to attack. Even King Arthur was surprised by their coordination.

I don't know if he felt the danger or not but he immediately jump off his throne the moment the four simultaneously attacked him with their strongest attacks. Lucia's new arm singlehandedly destroyed his throne without any sort of power up. More like one swift attack.

"I see. Interesting. Very curious indeed."

He landed nearby as he looked at the remains of his throne broken to pieces.

"I applaud to you all for being able to make me stand up from my throne. After all, I can just beat you all up without any need for me to stand up. But to force me to abandon the throne and escape? That is the first time in this body."

I heard that and frowned. "This body?"

"Of course. My first body has already been a rotting corpse now so why would I decide to use that anyways? Instead, when I resurrected, I decided to use a body as my vessel and convert their body as mine. However, now that I am standing and has no longer any throne left to sit on, guess I should put up my game on."

With the sword in hand, his presence started to increase and his power started surging.

"Let me see you all squirm."
