War Scale of Justice

Limited Item

Both parties of war can only deploy the same amount of military strength. If one of the parties do not have any military might left, and the user of the scale is in that party, that party will enter an unconquerable state, and prevent any attacks by the enemy. The war will then end in that situation.

Conditions for use: Can only be used when user is with the defending party. Once activated, the effects will only be dispelled when the war ends.

After painfully opening my eyes, what I first saw was not the ceiling, but the floating system notifications that flooded my line of sight.

My body was already hurting quite bad. Adding the news obtained from the screens, I could feel that both my mind and heart taking another blow.

I already had a feeling that I would land myself in such situations ever since I obtained the Scapegoat t.i.tle. However… suddenly being treated as a fugitive is seriously troubling.

Do you think I’m someone who wants to be a Pir*te King?

“Dale, are you okay? Oh… Where is he?”

After crawling up, I inspected my surroundings, and it looked like a rubbish dump. Excluding the pieces that came from the hospital, there were things like tables, chairs, machinery and gla.s.s pieces lying around.

“This is terrible, have I entered another weird scenario? Suddenly separating from my party member and such… Wow, the h.e.l.l is this?”

After speaking to myself, I finally saw Dale.

No, it is not completely right to say it that way. I should have said ‘I saw a part of him.’

Dale’s lower body was crushed under a wall that fell from above, his face was equally hideous, and his eyes were similar to that of a dead goldfish.

However…

Even if that was so, Dale’s body slowly transformed into pieces of crystals and dispersed into the air. Thus, his body slowly disappeared.

Hey hey, you b.a.s.t.a.r.d… Leaving the dungeon like this is against the rules! To think I became a fugitive after he pulled me into this dungeon, and I don’t have any idea on how to leave this place… Dying cannot be considered as an idea, right…

But…

After inspecting my surroundings, there were nowhere that felt like an exit. Also… I could feel that the monsters here were very high-leveled.

Not only that, the person in-charge of AoEs died instantly, and it was in such an ugly fashion… It was truly a tragedy.

Dale’s body already disappeared completely, and at this time, I spotted something lying at the place his body was at before.

I went over to pick it up.

At that moment, I scolded and cursed his entire line of family and ancestors.

It was blue, and something similar to a key. It was some kind of tool… For confirmation, I tapped on it to look at the item’s description.

Key of War

A key that activates the mysterious machine that lie in the underground dungeon below the capital.

One-of-a-kind Item

Cannot be destroyed.

No matter how I see it, this was a very dangerous item… Mysterious machine? What is that? A gundam? No, that kind of thing shouldn’t appear, unless it’s a nuclear warhead? That kind of thing shouldn’t be possible here as well…

However…

In conclusion, it was because of this item I became a fugitive! And just when did this happen!? According to the announcements on the screen, this was already an event that happened more than twelve hours ago. Just what in the world happened outside!?

But from the situation earlier, if both of us were to die here, wouldn’t the key be left here? I have a feeling this is a very important item, it would have been a waste to lose it.

After dropping the key into my ring, I picked a stone from the ground.

I threw it upwards, the stone dropped onto the floor again, and it bounced into a random direction.

Alright, I will go this way then.

Ten minutes later.

I was fleeing at the fastest speed I had ever ran in my life.

That’s right, it was definitely the fastest in my life. Because I felt that I was already beginning to fly.

Of course, there were almost nothing that could make me run like that. In other words, the thing that was chasing me was several times more scary than anything that had ever chased after me before.

When I turned to look at it… As I thought, it was seriously scary!

Although I could not call it a monster, but… It was a weird machine with 8 chainsaws attached to it, and no matter which angle I look from, I had a feeling that it was impossible for me to beat this monster.

Kite it? Freeze it? Did you think I haven’t tried them out yet? My ice arrows only managed to reduce its HP by a dot before getting reflected! It also simply charged through my Ice Castle!

There’s no need for any further tests, right? Even if I were to only get slightly sliced by this thing, I would definitely be sent to the cathedral!

Oh right, one of the basic reasons that I chose to run from this thing was its level.

Cleaning Robot – Prototype by the Cleaning Department (Third Model) LV 25 7,999,427/8,000,000

No matter how I see it, there’s no way for me to win! The level raised a little too much! Just which dungeon floor did I fall into!

Wasn’t there supposed to be only three floors!?

Also, why do I not see the end even after I running for so long…? Just what is this place!?

Argh, whatever. I just have to keep on running…

I don’t want to die, after all!
