What Kind Of Newbie Are You?! They Said That “Summoner” Is A Terrible Job, Yet They Call Her The Last Boss - CH 22
“The idiots who ran ahead of us are gone…” one of the players said.
His name was Doroso, he had witnessed the deaths of his comrades some distance away, and then let out a deep sigh.
Even though they were called his comrades, they were just people he had met today. There is no solidarity, and the word “rabble” describes them well. However, for the past few days, although it was through the bulletin board, they had worked hard together to defeat Johann. It’s not like Doroso has disregarded all that.
“Now, then,” Doroso said, proudly holding up his sword. “Let’s begin our revenge!”
He looks at his surroundings, all of his comrades seemed to have the same thought.
Some of them made a face as if they had put in their full conviction.
Some of them had refreshing smiles.
Some of them had faces so pale, Doroso was worried about whether they’d be okay.
“Well, if you attack with 40 people at the same time, there’s no opponent that can beat us… now,” Doroso said.
Attack! Or so Doroso planned to say.
“Atta—wait, what is that?”
He could see a pillar of light stretching toward the sky. There were three of them on closer inspection, and they are getting piercing into the other side of the clouds.
“Hey, hey, hey… what are those things…?”
And now the pillars of light disappeared. Breaking through the clouds, three big white gates appeared. They open with a loud noise.
Gate Of The Heavens. It was Sword Angel’s strongest skill and activated by Johann, who had used Multiply to split herself into three. There was one for each.
However, Doroso and the other players, who had not yet studied Sword Angel’s Skills, started panicking.
“That’s right… there might be some kind of attack… get ready… Huh, my Skills won’t activate?”
Would there be some kind of attack from the gates? For example, water or monsters rushing out. Trembling, Doroso tried to activate a defensive Skill. However, it didn’t work for some reason. Was it a bug? On that suspicion, he checked his status…
“My HP is 0…!?”
His HP display is 0. The surrounding players were probably in the same situation. All of them couldn’t hide their bewilderment because their HP suddenly dropped in an instant.
For players above level 30, Instant Death countermeasures are essential. It’s normal to have at least one item, such as equipment or accessories, that has Nullify Instant Death, or one-use amulet items that will break instead.
However, in this battle with Johann, most of the players spent their resources on Anti-Stun measures in preparation for Kuwa Geiger, so they were unable to respond to this wide-ranging Instant Death attack. It was their mistake in not being able to predict Johann’s evolution. As they have grown over the past month, Johann has enjoyed the game and grown as well.
“Shit… if it wasn’t for this event… I would have had something,” Doroso grunted.
He usually carries a protective amulet to prevent Instant Death. Even if it’s not against other players, there’s a possibility that unfamiliar monsters will suddenly use Instant Death attacks. However, this Event does not allow items to be brought in. Naturally, he didn’t have that amulet.
“Ah… what is it… AWAAAHHH!!’
It was the end. Doroso and the other players start to rise. Their bodies soon pass through the tops of the trees and rise into the sky. It was then that they finally realized that they were being sucked into that gate.
And if they look at the ground, Johann and her companions Zecca and Remma are waving at the players as they were taken to their doom.
“Fucking…. HELLLLLLLL!!!”
Unable to fight anymore, Doroso and other ambushing players were sucked into the other side of the gate.
