Re: Player-Chapter 30: [That One Chance that Seems Impossible!]

'Seems like I need to be a Dark Mage, huh?' I sighed as I then got up. The only way to be a Dark Mage was to get to level 20. Seems like I need to visit the necromancer first.

"Who are-"

-Slash!

Didn't take much effort though. I already have killed him many times over.

"One point in Dark Mana," I smiled as I honestly didn't want to take this path first but seems like I am taking this one.

With the barrage of skills getting advanced, including [One Way Out!], it was pretty easy to reach the circle and once again hit the exact same weak point.

The mana of the array began uncoiling as expected and I began rearranging it at a rapid speed. The first point was easy, the second was easier. While it did take a couple of tries, I could finish at least 1% of the work within 30 seconds that I had.

And after the 30 seconds of the [One Way Out!] was over, I then sighed before restarting again.

[Loading from the last Save Point!]

[Loading Complete!]

This time, I could change 2% of the array. Luckily, I didn't need to change it completely… not that I can, anyway. About 30-35% of changes should be enough.

This time I got to 5% by activating [Frenzy!] and [Battle Zone!] at the same time.

Reached 10% when I added the effect of [Light Coating!]. Seems like the dark mana of the array was also having a negative effect on me, too.

15% this time. I also figured out another weak point where I could begin with.

25%. The weak point was rather nice. Helped me change the array to a great degree…

33%. Almost there… it should take a few more steps but I should be able to save everyone with this…

[Loading from the last Save Point!]

32%. There wasn't enough time…

33%. I used everything in my arsenal, but… I couldn't sever the connection between 1000 people and the summoning circle.

I woke up again in the same place as before, before I stretched a little.

"It is impossible to change that part of the array," I reached that conclusion as I saw that part of the array being more time consuming than the others. It would take at least 10 more seconds to finish it even if I do it perfectly.

"Is there really no way?" I pondered about it. Should I start from another point… or is there anything else I can do… but all other plans fail in the presence of Amir? It was the only shot that I had… 𝚋𝚎ｄｎｏｖ𝚎𝚕．𝚌ｏｍ

"Wait!! If we don't do it from the inside!" A sudden idea clicked into my brain as I ran down to the ground floor.

As usual, Ameliana entered with the two monsters behind her. Her eyes narrowed at me. She observed me with an intense look.

"Who are-"

"Ameliana Reidsa Lurentze," I took her name, making her widen her eyes.

"I know you have a lot of things to say and tell, but… is there any way we can sever the connection of the people from the array?" I asked as I looked at her, widening her eyes even more.

The two monsters jumped at me before she could say anything…

-BOOM!!!

Though I wasn't as weak as before…

[Dark Fire of Hell!]

I caught them burning, as they fell on the ground in pain, unable to take even a single step.

"What is going on here?" Amir, who sensed his puppet dying, appeared behind Ameliana while she was still contemplating.

"Kill me after telling me," I looked at her with determination as I spoke in a low voice.

She nodded as she jumped at me. Reaching closer to me, she whispered,"Only a Light Mage can do it. Sever their hearts and brains at once from Dark Magic."

[You Have Died!]

[Game Over!]

[Loading from the last Save point!]

[Loading Complete!]

A smile appeared on my face as I stood up once again from the bed. My eyes looked at the place where the necromancer was…

Running towards him, I reached him and…

-Slash!

Instantly reached Level 20.

Applying one point in Light Magic and another in Dark Magic, I became a mage who can use both the magic. Quiet unorthodox, if you ask me.

"All I have to do is use [True Heal], huh?" I smiled, as I didn't think the answer was so simple.

[True Heal(Common)!]

[Effect:

-Remove all negative ailments, curses and wounds from the person!

-Heals for 100HP

Cost: 100MP!

Cooldown: 10s!]

And adding the effects of [Light Magician's Mana Zone] that allowed me to use any Light Magic without any restrictions, things couldn't have been easier.

Though I need to add [Mana Surge!] first, just in case…

[Mana Surge(Common)!]

[Effects: Allows the user to use mana as much as he wants for 30 seconds!

Cooldown: 10 Minutes!]

But I still need to use all the cards in my arsenal…

[One Way Out!]

[Frenzy!]

[Super Strength!]

Within the first 10 seconds, I could save about 50 people, another 50 people were saved in the next 10… and the final 10… I gave up.

"Since everyone is in their houses, separated from each other, I guess there is no way I could do it in 30 seconds," I sighed before I laid on my back as I looked at the door where Ameliana was going to come from.

I did hear some footsteps coming up, but nobody entered the door. Seems like she was never really particularly interested in me.

Not minding much, I waited till dawn when the people would gather at the central area. I pondered about what I will do after this… where should I go next…

The adventure had just begun, so I should plan it carefully while I still have time. Should I visit the cold regions first, or should I move to the Aurelian Empire and see if I could get something from there?

Though mainly I should prepare for the Gods and stuff. That should be my focus since in the end, that's the only roadblock I will have. I will need an army of my own…

"I guess I can use players? Hmmm. That'd make sense. Though what should I do to maintain their trust… What do the players like again?" I questioned as I got lost in my own thoughts before the time of summoning dawned close.

My eyes fixed on the door. I opened it before moving to the hallway, jumping to the roof, and the church came in front of me.

I didn't use any skills this time as I moved closer to the church with my basic stats.

The Mayor looked at his people with pity. Rivas stood beside him with an equally anguished face.

That bastard, necromancer, was enjoying the sight a few steps ahead of them.

Amir stood at a distance on the opposite side with the old lady, who observed the circle beside him.

As for Ameliana, she was chanting in the church as usual.

Walking towards the church, I moved between Rivas and the Mayor,

"Just wait for 10 seconds. Don't do anything for 10s… and I will handle everything… I will save everyone."

I spoke, alarming both of them as they took a step back. The necromancer heard me too as he turned around with a confused look on his face,

"Who are yo-"

[Mana Surge!] [Frenzy] [Super Strength] [Active Mana Regeneration] [Battle Zone] [Haggling] [Mana Zone] [Dark Fire of Hell] [Hell's Flower] [One Way Out] [Light Ball] [Light Shield] [Sword of Light] [Light coating!] [Index Flare] [True Heal] [Blind!] [Holy Envision!] [Protection of Light!] [Light Magician's Mana Zone]

-Slash!

"Let's end this," I muttered in a rather tired voice as I jumped down at the crowd with my eyes turning gold. I will finish this before Amir could even realize what is going on.
