A Living Armour Owns A Tavern - Chapter 63 User Friendly
“Wh…who are you?!”
The Earth Spirit witnessed a feminine figure clad in shiny steel armor. She defended the great tree by casting a barrier just before the Spirit was able to smash the tree with his destructive fist.
As the Earth Spirit took a good look at her face, he was surprised to see that she had no facial features at all. She wears a closed hooded helmet with no eye sockets to see out of. Her usual fairy wings were emitting thin veils of light. If Gus had an opinion about this, her suit looks like a female armor from a well-polished mobile RPG game.
A FEW MOMENTS EARLIER—–
“Am I really about to die?”
Queen Aoivah was lying on the pool of her own blood. She could already feel her body getting numb. It took every ounce of her strength just to keep her eyes wide open. She was fighting hard to stay conscious. She knew if she dies right now, she will doom her people, which is a fate worse than death to her. As her vision started to blur, she witnessed a grotesque figure which quickly lunged at her dying body. She was horrified as the figure quickly devoured her whole body. She wanted to scream but she doesn’t have the strength to do so.
“Let go of the Queen, you beast!”
Trina tried with all her might to separate the Queen and the monstrosity which devoured Queen Aoivah, but unfortunately, she couldn’t stop the figure with her tiny frail body.
Meanwhile, the Queen could slowly feel that the pain on her body has completely disappeared. As she opened her eyes, she saw unusual signs and symbols floating in front of her.
Queen Aoivah was shocked to see everything in front of her.
“Is this what the afterlife looks like?”
Then, the Fairy Queen heard a familiar voice as if he was already in her head.
“Your Highness, It’s me, Mister Fuzz! Stand up and follow the Earth Spirit before it destroys the tree!”
Confused, Queen Aoivah quickly understood with the fact that she is still alive and her guest Mr. Fuzz is involved in this somehow.
“The Prophecy! They really are our saviors, Thank the stars!” thought Queen Aoivah.
With every loose information coming together, then she finally knew that she could finally put her trust and the lives of her people in the hands of Gus and his company. As the Queen was about to follow after the Earth Spirit, she felt someone grabbed her hand.
There she was, Trina was dumbstruck while holding the Queen’s hand, as she couldn’t understand what has happened right before her very eyes. It was only a few seconds ago that an unknown creature attacked them. Instead of pain or death, she felt an intense concentration of Mana circling around the Armored Fairy Queen. She has witnessed a winged ethereal being clad in glorious slender armor. It was so beautiful and powerful that she thought that a God herself has descended and blessed their Queen to save them from the catastrophe.
“M… My Queen?! Is that you?! Please tell me you are alive!”
Trina wondered if the mystical figure in front of her was still the Queen she loved and respected.
“T…Trina?! Yes, It’s me. Please go help your injured comrades. We will take care of the Earth Spirit!”
Queen Aoivah quickly turned around and chased after the Earth Spirit leaving the confused Trina on the ground. With her Queen Alive and well, Trina wiped the tears and snot off her face as she stood up and picked up her bow. Empowered by the miracle that happened in front of her, she believes that the Gods have not abandoned them at all! With her adrenaline pumping through the roof, she yelled with all her might and quickly rejoined her kin who were fending off the remaining dragons that made a mess at the village walls.
While Gus and the Queen made their way to save the Great Tree, Gus quickly gave her an instant Crash course on how to effectively use the armor and its interface since they are pressed for time. After only a few minutes of explanation, she managed to understand how to use the signs and symbols which floated in front of her.
Gus also noticed that his System’s interface became more User-Friendly, he was surprised how the System ingeniously integrated his memories of modern technology from his world and applied its applications to his armor. Using the System’s new interface, almost anyone of Circa’s inhabitants could easily understand how to operate and understand the features of the armor.
The System is quickly learning more and more since the Queen’s User Interface was even more User-friendly compared to the interface Rhoanne was using. Even without the Offensive Capabilities, his support capabilities are capable of turning this world upside down if it gets even stronger.
————–
Queen Aoivah has finally caught up with the Earth Spirit in the nick of time as it attempted to strike the Great tree down with a powerful blow from its fist. Although the Queen’s Barrier has shattered, it was enough to save the Great Tree from being destroyed.
“Wh…who are you?!”
The Earth Spirit bellowed in anger. He was surprised that an Earth barrier was able to take the full force of his attack.
“You will not stop me! I have already smashed your puny barrier! Eat This!”
The Earth Spirit tried to hide the fact that he got hurt from breaking the Fairy Queen’s barrier. He didn’t expect that it could hurt him at all. He knew he has to end this here and now. While the Earth Spirit winded up for a second attack at the tree, his momentum was quickly disrupted by the armored fairy by firing an enhanced steel arrow at his shoulder. The Armored Fairy Queen didn’t bother to introduce itself as it continued to dash towards the Earth Spirit with top speed while firing empowered steel arrows at its foe.
“FWISH! BOOM!”
Although the Earth Spirit still managed to push through with his attack on the barrier, it lost most of its destructive strength, failing to break the barrier. The agile armored fairy followed up a counter-attack by aiming her shots at the Earth Spirit’s eyes.
“Gragh!!!”
The Earth Spirit defenses were tough, but every little damage he received was starting to show its effects as his strength and movements were evidently getting weaker.
“No!!!”
The Earth Spirit cannot believe he was about to be defeated by mere forest fairies who he was pushing around for far too long. The fierce battle raged on. It was a battle of the Earth Spirit’s Strength against the Speed and Dexterity of the Agile Fairy Warrior. The Earth Spirit has finally revealed its trump card. Immediately, Mana started to surround the Earth Spirit.
“Hahaha! You leave me with no other choice! If I can’t have the Tree, then no one will ever have it!
I am taking you all with me! GRAVITUS!”
The Earth Spirit started to surround itself with thick stone walls. Layer after layer of rock, it’s trying to buy itself some time to cast a skill.
“I…It’s killing itself!” muttered Queen Aoivah.
“Isn’t that suppose to be a good thing?” asked Gus.
“He intends to explode with a blast powerful enough to kill everything that lives in the village, Mr. Fuzz.”
“Oh… Fuck!”
The Armored Queen Fairy tried to shoot an empowered Steel Arrow at the Earth Spirit while channeling his Gravitus Spell.
“CRACK!”
Unfortunately, her empowered Steel Arrows wasn’t enough to penetrate its defenses as the Earth Spirit was quickly replacing the rocks that were blown away.
“What are we going to do Mr. Fuzz? My Magic is not enough to stop him from destroying everything!”
“KABOOM!”
Suddenly A Gigantic Explosion resounded throughout the empire bathing everything in light.
