Ranking System - Chapter 283: Slaughtered

“Retreat!” The leader of Gontz told his people to leave. They knew they couldn’t defeat my troops and would only face defeat. It’s a shame that I wasn’t their only opponent. The people of Etellia also wanted them dead.

“Don’t let them leave! Wipe them out!” The leader of Etellia saw this opportunity and attacked. Since the cockroaches were under my control, I didn’t command them to attack the snowpeople.

With my overpowered abilities, it had become a one-sided slaughter-fest. The number of death from the people of Gontz were racking up, and they couldn’t help but get demoralized.

The people of Gontz were either eaten alive by the cockroaches, turned into ice, or impaled by them. It didn’t take long before the people of Gontz were killed.

After their arrogant performance, I couldn’t help but laugh at how they ran. I had seen some of them piss their pants and plead for their lives. I live putting arrogant people in their places. It’s one of the things I like to do.

“Thank you for your assistance. If you hadn’t shown up, more of our people would have been killed.” Despite the disgusting creature I had summoned, I could sense genuine gratitude coming from the other side. Seeing someone’s gratitude made me feel strange.

“You don’t have to think much about it. I had told a messenger of Gontz that we would meet on the battlefield as enemies.” I could imagine Vega’s rage as I wiped out his troops.

Of course, even if I did save them, they were still worried about me. I was a force that wasn’t from their city and someone who could attack them at any time.

“May we know your affiliate?” The leader of this group asked, concerned about my answer.

“I’m from Chrome, neighboring the other side of Gontz.” I didn’t hide where I came from, but I could see the people of Etellia having mixed feelings about it.

If people from cities other than the original three were here, news of the Luminite Mine would have leaked, and more forces could have arrived. There’s nothing wrong with their thoughts. If I were in their position, I would feel cautious too.

“Don’t make that face. You wouldn’t be able to live if I were hostile to you.” My smile had unsettled them, but they could only agree with what I said.

“I’m here because of my interest in the city of Gontz. I won’t lie to you; I want to take over this city.” I also wanted the Luminite mine, but I have no reason to tell them now.

“A takeover?” The people of Etellia didn’t expect something like this from me.

“Are you interested in joining? We can split the territory in half. I’m sure you would want that in a situation like this.” You may be wondering why I am doing this.

Every city here has a god they worship, so I needed to be careful of those trump cards. I wanted to use the people of Etellia to split the god’s wrath.

“I don’t have the authority to decide that.” The leader of the group said it without much thought.

“Is that so? It’s a shame. I would like to talk some more, but I have other things to do.” I sensed a battle in a different direction inside the Luminite mine, and I wanted to see which force it was.

“Wait! Before you leave, could I have your name?”

“Charles. The next time we meet, you may call me Charles.” Leaving my name, I went opposite the Luminite mine and did a roundabout. I didn’t want them to know I was going toward the mine.

The mountain that had the Luminite was about the size of Mt. Everest. My old world size was nothing compared to the realm.

I was lucky to find people inside the mountain. Otherwise, finding the mine would have taken forever.

Watching the fight, this time, it was someone from an unknown group and the people of Riona.

The unknown group specialized in barrier magic, and the people of Riona used their hunting skills.

Unlike the fight before, I have no reason to interfere. I wanted to check if I could find some information about the unknown group using the Amazonians.

“How dare you betray us! Do you think you could get away with this? I knew we shouldn’t have trusted bastards from the likes of you.” One of the Amazonians screamed in anger.

Judging from how it is, these people who used magic were in an alliance with the Amazonians. I didn’t know why they betrayed them, but it was information that I could use for the future.” n.(In

“Kekeke. Our nation is always at odds. Why should we team up with simple-minded freaks like you? Do you think we would help you take over this mine?” One of the people laughed, seeing how the Amazonians were struggling.

Always at odds? I didn’t know much about the borders around Riona, so even if they did tell me who they were affiliated with, I would have no idea who they were.

Anyway, the mysterious people were winning in this skirmish. With their barrier magic preventing a cave-in in a small space, they could launch large-scale magic without any worries. The Amazonians were at a severe disadvantage and would be wiped out anytime.

“Did you know your city is on the verge of destruction? We have planned for your nation’s troops to spread, and once that happens, we will launch an invasion. Kekeke.” Explaining his moves like a classic villain, the Amazonians could only cry in rage.

Even on the verge of despair, the people of Riona never gave up. They did everything they could to remove the mysterious group, but their determination was futile. Enjoying their torment, the people who specialized in magic used tortious methods to finish them.

With the torment of the Amazonians, I could feel my powers grow. With the death of the people of Riona, I continued to spy on these people.
