On top of the town walls, the female knight and Elenore were both left speachless by the scene unfolding before them.

“Un… unreal! It’s like… the stories of the Warmaster!”

Before Izunahime, monsters would fall at her feet one after another.

How many did I kill? I lost count around 20.

As I was having those thoughts, they tried to change their strategy and surround me. It’s a good plan in theory but… a caged fox will only bite harder.

“This is getting annoying. So how about we kick it up a gear?”

As I said those words a yellow aura flowed through my body alongside yellow lightning sparks. I already was using my passive ability which increases my speed in a fight as long as I don’t get hit. But I couldn’t help but wonder how would it look like in real life if I tried to use some buffs too. Normally you would let the buffing and the healing to the healer class.

But since I play mostly solo I learned a few buffs myself that seem useful. [Lightning Step]. It increases your movement and attack speed. Let’s see what damage I can do. As soon as I took the first step…

“She… gone…?”

The monsters were confused because I disappeared from the place I was standing. And in the next few moments… heads and body parts started to fly in the sky. They turned around in each and every direction but they couldn’t see me or react. All they could see were yellow flashes. Each time a flash passed by them, they would die.

I was known as the F2P Empress, but I actually had another official name. Lightning Flash Queen. I knew how to do my combos and fight with pure instinct. It just works. My spear was spinning at tremendous speeds.

“[Chainsaw Burst]!”

I decided on using a spell. I spun my spear and tossed it making a huge golden chainsaw. There was nothing that could stop it. It passed from monster to monster until eventually it burst into an explosion. Of course, in the next second it manifested in my hand again.

Still… their numbers are still quite big. It’s been a while since I felt such excitement.

“Stand back!”

A voice echoed behind the monsters. I too stopped for a moment. A rider on an undead rotting horse appeared. He looked completely like a pirate, except instead of a human head he had a squid head. But judging by his level… lvl 55 it was almost for sure that this guy was the raid boss. What’s up with this guy though? Is he a Davy Jones fan or something?

“You… human… fight me!”

He pulled out 2 cutlass swords, one in each hand and stepped down from his horse.

“Observe… my power! [Bursting… Blade…]!”

Bursting Blade? That’s a player skill! Usually monsters wouldn’t have player abilities. I wonder if that will hurt me?

“Fine. Come at me! Witness your own powerlessness!”

I took the full force of his swings. A 10 hit violent slashing combo. The final blow actually pushed me back and made me stagger for a few seconds. But after that I carefully straighten up my pose again.

“No… way. I landed a direct hit! How… you not dead?”

“Do you understand now? Your strongest attack didn’t even scratch me. You are all too weak.”

I was partially bluffing. Although no blood came out when I got sliced, I did take damage. But that attack only inflicted 5k of damage. My HP was around 180k. That’s a dent I don’t even feel. The impact did feel sour though. Just for reference unless you are playing a tank class with 300k HP, there are endgame raid bosses that can one shot you. But that attack… is too weak.

“Elenore!!!”

I shouted behind to Elenore who was still on the wall.

“I’m getting tired of these small fry! I’ll kill them all at once! Duck behind the wall if you don’t want to get blown away!”

And as expected, after seeing my display of power she quickly ducked. The female knight and a few others followed her lead. It’s time to end this. Once again I leaped high into the air. Electrical current started flowing through my spear. I took a throwing stance. It was the lvl 90 demonic lancer ultimate. My spear emitted a yellow glow. It became bigger and bigger. A magical shining yellow holy spear.

“[Chaos Fall]!”

I tossed my spear with all my might. And the moment it hit the ground… a pure gold light explosion occurred. No sound…no screams could be heared from the explosion. It engulfed the whole army in a large vibrating orb of golden destruction. The scale of the blast was probably around a 20 meter radius.

When the blast cleared, I also managed to land near the town wall. I was shocked to see my own attack.

In the game, magic or any form of attack wouldn’t change the terrain. But in this world… it left a visible scar. The area that was the battlefield just a few moments ago was completely destroyed. A huge crater was the only thing that could be seen. You can almost believe that a meteor hit this place.

Pant pant

I started to catch my breath. Chaos Fall is an ultimate ability that costs 1000 MP. It was the first time I felt out of breath, but I still had enough mana to spare. Still… this event raised many questions. This astral wave was too weak. An Astral Storm is supposed to give players a run for their money. It’s not something that you can easily solo. And they talked. The monsters were definitely talking. Not to mention that so far the levels in this world are way too low.

Many questions popped in my head but they all were interrupted.

“Izuna!!!”

The guards opened the gate and a teary Elenore jumped at me pushing me down.

“I was so scared! Are you okay? Don’t leave me! Without you I have nothing left!”

“Oww… Elenore, you’re squeezing too tight!”

Our breasts were pressing against each other. In fact, this wasn’t so bad. While she was still hugging me… cheers started to flow from the guards and knights. Everyone is happy to be alive.

As for me… I hope this event is gonna give me a sweet reward. Or at least promote my adventurer rank. I really don’t want to do boring quests like fetching cats from trees. Maybe the female knight might put up a good word for us. I wonder if this event were to happen near the royal capital… would it be on a bigger scale?
