Legacy of the Betelgeuse

I open my eyes after trying to bear the pain and the soreness in my whole body. This is not a pleasant experience and I\'m regretting using this mode, but I don\'t want to be forced to fall asleep by the system if I deactivated the Real-Mode. If only there\'s a potion to heal my fatigue rather than just the stamina, that would be great.

Chelsea is still with me, she\'s eating her snacks while reading something on the screen. She looks at me and waves at me.

"You\'re good?"

I groan and try to fix my sitting.

"Nope..."

Chelsea is chuckling mischievously.

*BOOM!*

We both are startled by the explosion. Chealse immediately stands up to check what\'s going on on the battlefield, I try to stand up but my body is too weak, Chelsea then helps me stand up. I look back and see Shazjae\'s head is covered by black smoke. Something is weird, the previous one didn\'t release black smoke like this one. They put something other than sulfuric acid inside the barrels.

I look at Chelsea.

"Did you guys put something else inside the barrels?"

Chelsea shakes her head.

"No. Well, not that I know of..."

Shazjae roars so loudly that we both can tell that he\'s in pain from that explosion. Shazjae is rubbing his nape and head while keep roaring in pain. Shazjae is so in pain that he starts to move violently and his tail almost wipes out all the players on the ground and he whips his tail to the ground and destroys everything under it.

Shazjae is running toward the wall where Leo and Hans are at. All the players on the tower and wall are running away as fast as they can, some are jumping off of the walls and towers because they\'re too scared to see a massive terrifying creature running toward them while roaring so loudly.

Shazjae hits the wall and starts tearing the wall, but the wall is too thick for him and it\'s going to take a lot of time and effort to do it. The ballistae and catapults are showering him from behind. Shazjae starts screeching and then runs to the other side of the city while stomping everything underneath while the tail whips everything around him. But because he\'s in pain and not really paying attention to where\'s he walking to, he steps on the hole and falls to the underground.

Everyone keeps showering him from all directions with bolts and boulders, even the spellcasters showering him with all their spells and magic even though it barely does anything, they keep doing it anyway to help. The ground is shaking really violently and I can feel that Shazjae is struggling underneath the ground, but suddenly Shazjae stops screeching and roaring. They stop firing at Shazjae because they want to check what\'s beneath the cloud of dust.

Chelsea is carrying my shoulder and we both are looking at the cloud of smoke, and then Shazjae\'s silhouette appears. Chelsea covers her mouth.

[Shazjae used [Maximum Regeneration]]

We both are looking at Shazjae\'s HP bar.

[79.883.032] ++

[80.383.032] ++

[81.883.032] ++

[82.383.032] ++

[82.883.032] ++

...

...

...

[93.500.000]

I can see his fingers have fully regenerated. Chelsea looks at me with disbelief while pointing at Shazjae.

"What?! This is bullsh*t! All of our hard work became useless! Now what? Is he going to use some another bullsh*tery skill?"

Shazjae roars and then jumps up into the air and then opens his mouth. A ball of light is concentrated inside it and then he releases it on the wall. The ball of light is falling down to the wall so slowly.

I look at Azrael.

"Azreal! Bring us as high as possible now!"

Azrael stands up and bites my clothes, then he\'s carrying us up into the sky.

As soon as the ball of light hit the wall. It expands in an instant and there\'s no sound at all, but then it explodes like a tiny nuclear bomb and destroys everything around the wall within 5 kilometers radius. Even the three of us get thrown away by the shockwaves, but thankfully Azrael manages to keep us safe from the explosion. Everyone on the east, north, and south sides of the city just disintegrates into ashes.

Shazjae lands on the ground and creates another shockwave and kills all the players around him, including Ivonna and the others. Chelsea is speechless with her mouth wide open. Shazjae then creates another ball of light and pointing it at Gunther and Reinhardt at the east wall. They\'re all running away and even jump off of the walls and towers, but it\'s all futile, the explosion kills all of them in an instant. The only survivors from all that is just the two of us.

Shazjae is just standing still after he killed millions of players, but then he looks up so slowly and looks at where we are. Shazjae then roars and then creates another ball of light. Chelsea is covering her mouth and trying to hold her screams.

I look at Azrael.

"Take her with you, Azrael. I will take care of him."

Azrael nods.

"Yes, Master!"

I throw Chelsea onto Azrael\'s back. Chelsea is surprised and looks at me with disbelief.

"What are you doing, Trev?!"

I smirk.

"Saving your life."

I look at Azrael.

"Release me and go!"

Azrael opens his mouth and I start freefalling. Azrael immediately flies away to avoid the ball of light in Shazjae\'s mouth.

Shazjae releases the ball of light and it flies right past me. I look up and Azrael is flying as fast as he can, and then the ball of light explodes. The shockwave pushes me away and towards Shazjae. I grab my scythe and try to balance myself in the air.

[Reawakening is activated!]

[All the skills cooldown is refreshed!]

[Removed all debuffs!]

I\'m surprised that the fatigue in my body immediately disappears when I use [Reawakening], even the exhausted debuff disappears. I immediately deactivate the Real-Mode. I look at Shazjae and smile.

"I\'m back motherf*cker!"

[Divine Aura is activated]

[Frenzy is activated]

[Bloodbath is activated]

[Dominion isactivated]

Shazjae keeps shooting the ball of light toward Azrael like a turret. I\'m not sure if he doesn\'t see me or he\'s just ignoring me and just keep focusing on shooting Azrael down. Shazjae is showing me his back and keeps on shooting at Azrael, then when I\'m planning to throw my scythe onto his back, his tail is lifting and swings it around then it\'s coming towards me. I immediately throw my scythe and hope it lands on his tail.

I\'m watching my scythe flying down and at the same time looking at the tail that is about to hit me while gritting my teeth and clenching my fists. When I see my scythe land on his tail I immediately use [Blink Strike] and teleport to where my scythe is at. I immediately hold onto his tail so I won\'t fall.

I\'m running up his tail and look around looking for the rope that Ivonna and the others made so I can use it to get inside the hole. Unfortunately, this is daytime and I can\'t use my [Moonsteps] and [Nightfall] skills to help me get there faster.

I see the rope and start climbing up his tail. The rope is swinging around because Shazjae keeps moving around to shoot his ball of light at Azrael, and it makes me can\'t catch the rope. I\'m taking a deep breath while looking at the rope and find the right moment to jump. When the rope is coming toward me, I jump as high as possible and I grab it and hold it so tightly.

I\'m climbing up using the rope while looking around to see where Azrael is at. I look up the rope and this is going to take a while and what I\'m afraid of is Azrael\'s stamina because he\'s still exhausted from earlier, and I don\'t think he can keep flying around like this.

It\'s been an hour and I\'m still climbing up the rope. So this is why they took so long to blow up Shazjae\'s head. This annoying thing keeps moving and making me hard to climb the rope. I can see Azrael from over here, I checked his status screen and his stamina is still enough for him to fly around for another few hours if he\'s not using any skill.

I finally reach the back of his head. I enter the hole and look around since this is my first time in here. It\'s like a dungeon with so many paths that lead into tunnels. I look at the trail and I can see their footprints going up. I follow their footprints and then I see the wall of tissue that they were talking about. The smell of sulfur is choking me so I\'m covering my mouth and nose with a cloth. But then I see a black spot in one area of the wall. I approach the black spot and touch it.

I rub them on my fingers and raise my eyebrow.

"Black powder?"
