Re-Awakening: I Ascend with a Legendary class

However, everyone knew that it couldn’t be so simple.

The arrow continued.

“You better defend yourself. This arrow is designed to kill, so after the shield, it will pick up one of you randomly,” Almond said, a faint smile on his face.

Naturally, the arrow moved slowly, but it wasn’t that slow. But it was slow enough for an average human with no supernatural powers to avoid it.

And as it had to travel 48 kilometers to hit the shield, it took its time.

This was Almond’s way of saying he didn’t give two cents about them, the Big Ten.

And since Verina was the one who put this shield-breaking challenge, they had to wait.

[ How long now? ]

[ Twenty-six minutes until that arrow hit the shield. ]

[ This Regalon King is a piece of work, really. I’ve been away for an hour, but the arrow is still fucking traveling. ]

[ With that speed, I had already mentioned it would take some minutes over two hours total. ]

[ So, has anyone figured out the specialty of this arrow? ]

‘Alright, I can’t sense it,’ Lily said with a pout. ‘What did you do? How does your Nullbreaker Entropy work?’

‘It’s a bit complicated, but to put it simply, it’s an Intent based on my conceptual desire of something that shatters negations, and channels disorder. To undo the absolutes, to corrupt what is real to others, and to weaponize the unraveling possibilities introduced when the disorders increase in the target.’

‘The more stable there is something, the more violently it shall unravel.’

Almond’s eyes glinted. “I have ideas of more applications that can be done through this with other assets I have, so what better guinea pigs than a bunch of Supreme Emperors?”

Lily elbowed Almond as she chuckled since Almond spoke the last thing in his voice instead of soul chat. “I hope the stream didn’t capture that. You just revealed our main plan.”

[ Oh my god! These two arrogant fellows! ]

[ Hahahaha! Haughty assholes. ]

[ This stream is funny. Now it’s showing the livid expressions of those Supreme Emperors. ]

[ These two are going too far in their mocking. Like the Big Ten’s Supreme Emperors are going to make them suffer. It’s two vs a hundred! ]

[ Look at the Big Ten. They are taking it in a tough way. ]

Suddenly, Verina saw a digital cat popping in front of her, asking, “Hello Miss Verina. Do you have anything to say about the statement that King Regalon just made?”

“Barks of the dogs are always loud,” Verina indifferently spoke. “Not to mention that even if these dogs bite, it would be like scratching an itch for us.”

[ Oooooo! She said it. ]

[ Damn, she’s got a point. ]

[ She’s got two attractive points, and if you haven’t forgotten, we need that arrow to break the shield for the glorious reveal of that hot figure. ]

[ Thirteen minutes until the arrow reaches there. ]

[ She burned them with those words! ]

Almond and Lily had no special reaction to her words. They were just converting in soul chat about their newfound powers while the arrow leisurely flew.

‘She already enhanced the shield twice,’ Lily couldn’t help but laugh. ‘Your arrow is making them nervous.’

‘Of course. The more they can’t see through or sense something, the more it terrifies them.’

‘Good mental game, but unfortunately for them, your arrow is going to open everyone’s eyes wide with disbelief,’ Lily grinned. She couldn’t wait to see their faces once that arrow touched the shield. She also wanted to properly see the power of this arrow as it unravels its powers.

‘Wait, since they don’t want to fight two versus hundred at once, we might as well make this to our advantage,’ Almond’s eyes flickered. ‘This way, we will able to experiment to our heart’s content, and then they get desperate, we can have a thrilling all-out combat.’

‘Good idea. Wait until one minute’s left. We’ll provoke them then.’

‘Alright. Until then, you should think of a super-defensive move. Your turn’s next if they accept our provocation.’

Time passed by quickly for some, but slowly for most of the people who wanted the arrow to strike the shield fast.

The moment was nearing.

“So, how about this? If that arrow can break the shield and even kill one of you, one of you can attack next to destroy a shield in front of us. That way, you won’t have to get naked and dance in front of a gazillion people,” Lily said with an ever-cheeky smile on her face.

“Of course, you can decide after the result,” Almond said with a chuckle. “Unless of course, you are eager to dance naked in front of everyone.”

“Shut up,” Verina coldly said. “Your arrow can’t break the shield in the first place, so you can stop your barking now.”

“Waau, waau,” Lily grinned. “Watch and despair.”

Right as she finished, everyone held their breath.

The arrow arrived in front of the shield and touched it.

[It’s happening!]

[ It fucking took two hours and sixteen minutes to reach there! Gaaaah! ]

The moment it touched the shield, the arrow…didn’t stop. It continued as of phasing through, but the shield began to uncontrollably vibrate to Verina’s shock.

Her once radiant shield was littered with increasing cracks as the arrow took its regular speed to pass through this ten-meter-thick and wide shield.

But it wasn’t just passing through, it was converting the shield’s broken-down structure to increase its own power!

‘So you also don’t know who is going to die by that arrow?’ Lily curiously asked, her eyes scanning the arrow.

Big D, Krala, and others were also doing the same, looking at it with rapt attention and focus.

The Big Ten’s Supreme Emperors were also focused on it because they also couldn’t figure out about its peculiarities despite scanning it for the past two hours.

‘Nope. I don’t know,’ Almond grinned as he answered Lily. ‘I’ve set those hundred as the targets, but which one of them will get struck depends on the reaction and intent they release when looking at the arrow. Moreover, each of them will feel like they are being targeted by the arrow, so they will inevitably give a reaction.’

‘Wait, that arrow…’ Lily’s eyes glinted. ‘It feels like it’s becoming more powerful?!’

‘Any obstacles between the target and the arrow will be met with the execution of a sequence that would invoke disorder and breakthrough structure, while spirit animating to absorb whatever it can to increase its power,’ Almond grinned.

Lily was speechless. ‘So the obstacles actually make the arrow stronger?’
