My King System

Chapter 67 - Blind



While all of this was clear as day, Yuki failed to notice it. It wasn\'t a mistake either. Many fail to realize their own mistakes but are quick to call out others for theirs. People turn a blind eye to things they don\'t want to see, as such people will ignore their faults which was precisely what Yuki was doing.

"When did I become like this? Why do I even want to get stronger?" Yuki asked himself.

"I remember now, it was so I don\'t have to endure hell just because I\'m weaker than others," Yuki lied but somehow managed to tell the truth at the same time.

Yuki truthfully didn\'t want to be bullied or humiliated ever again which was part of the reason as to why he originally wanted to get so powerful. However his goal had changed over time. Yuki grew to be more selfish. He was addicted to the sensation of being more powerful than all others. To simply defeat anyone with ease was something he didn\'t want to let go of. This served as more motivation to push himself to battle more of the dungeon stages. More exp meant more levels, the more levels he earned meant more power he would gain.

[Open inventory]

Yuki pulled out a pull status recovery potion from his inventory and drank it to regain his past strength.

"I wish there was a potion to increase mental fortitude," said Yuki.

Even though he had managed to regain his physical strength, Yuki had been completely worn out in the head. He felt dizzy and nervous. Even though his injuries had healed, his legs wouldn\'t stop shaking. Feeling no reason to fight it, Yuki sat on the ground in hopes of regaining control over his senses.

As he sat on the ground, an object fell from the stage\'s ceiling.

[Item drop: Magma stone]

Yuki double tapped on the strange shaped rock. The rock seemed to be a miniature magma golem as it had the same engravings and glow to it. However, that idea was quickly dismissed as the rock didn\'t move around.

[Rank: D]

[Attack: 0]

[Description: Power: Martial used to enhance a swords power and also contains a 12.5% chance of adding the enchantment "magma core". A mage\'s ultimate weapon is always a tank. Due to sacrificing themselves to be people who can create powerful spells, many mages end up being weak when it comes to defense. There was once a time when the world was ruled by magic. Of course due to the circumstances any disputes were settled by a duel in magic whether it be friendly or to the death. However there was one mage that decided to take a different route than others to cover his weaknesses. It was custom for mages to increase their speed to dodge attacks however this mage thought of something creative. He didn\'t focus on his speed, instead he choose to create a wall of defense using his magic, in turn leaving himself in a better position to attack. When the other mages learned of this, they deemed it blasphemy as it was different from their traditions. As such, they chose to execute him and cast away his creations in the dungeons.]

"How weird, they could have had a strong ally amongst them. Well, it\'s a made up story anyway,"

"How long had it been since I slept?" Yuki asked himself. However before he could even think about it, he collapsed and fell asleep. He had finally reached his limit after battling for so long. Seeing absolutely no point in fighting it, Yuki allowed himself to relax and allow his mind to heal. The average 15 year old would either be at school with their friends or at home playing video games. As for Yuki, he was participating in near death experiences almost daily all for his goal.

Elsewhere in the world, everything continued to progress rapidly. Yuki didn\'t realize it yet but he was growing to be one of the most well known players in the new world.

"How could the plan fail?! You were armed with a gun and there were two of you!" a shadowy figure spoke in a concealed room. The figure was sitting on a one person sofa as two large men stood beside him as his bodyguards. In front of him were the two men who were trying to kidnap the girls in the forest and sell them off. They both begged for forgiveness as they tried to explain what had happened.

"We were attacked by a crazy strong shadowy figured monster. Without it even touching us, its mere presence was enough to knock us out," the one that had been knocked unconscious said.

"How do I know you aren\'t lying to me?" the figure asked.

They had been caught off guard, there was no way to prove that they weren\'t lying, just then one of them remembered something.

"Mr. Y sir, I think I remember something," the man that had tried to use the gun on Meurig said in desperation.

"Go on," the figure commanded.

"I don\'t remember properly but after I was knocked out, only a few seconds later I was conscious for a little and I saw something you might want to know. There was another figure beside the shadow monster, he looked to still be a kid or a young teenager with black hair. I think it might be Yuki Kaito," the gunman explained.

"What a hassle, if you\'re right we have to mobilize our full forces and even pay for a high level player to help us," the figure looked worried.

"No matter, we can\'t let anyone who gets in our way escape unharmed," he continued.

"Hey one of you, bring me the newspaper from 4 days ago," the figure told one of his officers who was in the room.

Without saying a word, the officer left the room and quickly came back with a newspaper in hand. Giving it to the figure while bowing down. The figure that sat menacingly on the chair looked at it and flipped open to the next page. A full page of it was dedicated to Yuki.

It was titled "Beware Of The Level 7 Mass Murderer: Yuki Kaito"

"Already at level 7, I just hope that you haven\'t reached even greater heights by now," said the figure.
