The World Turned into a Game After I Woke up Chapter 128

Editor: RED

There were a huge number of Ravi Guild members surrounding me, but I barely noticed them . I just glared at the Aman family with my spear held tightly in my right hand .

At that moment, Lagus fell to his knees in front of me and bowed his head . "I'm terribly sorry about this . I was the one who invited you… this is entirely my fault . "

"Ah…" Muskan dropped to her knees as well . "I apologize as well . I just…wanted you to help me free my friends and family from oppression…" she said, tears streaming down her face .

Watching them beg for my forgiveness somehow cooled down the anger that was boiling up to my eyes . The two people who pissed me off the most just threw themselves at my feet; it'd be wrong if I stayed angry and started killing everybody . The glass had already been spilt; what else could I do?

"Ha… . " I sighed as I returned my spear into my inventory .

At Akashwi's signal the guards left the tent and closed the flap . It wouldn't be right to show the entire guild Lagus on his knees . I sat back down on my chair .

"Please forgive me . I was only thinking about myself . I just…"

A thought crossed my mind as I watched Muskan cry . How did someone like her obtain the Descendant of the God of Destruction? As far as I knew, random skills could only be received by devas who had fulfilled certain requirements . Random skills were something of a badge to prove to others just how strong someone was .

A random skill as powerful as the Descendant of the God of Destruction must have had some crazy requirements that only a powerful deva could fulfill, but I couldn't see any sign of that powerful deva in the crying Muskan . She looked more pitiful than anything else .

Muskan's will to better the lives of the Shudras and the Dilats was unchanging . I wasn't scorning that will; I just disregarded it, as I was thinking only about myself . I put myself first, even though I had no idea what would happen to millions of people .

"Can you really not undo it?"

"No… I can't . "

"Why didn't you make a guild master of either the Sahtashwi Guild or the Beni-Kinant Guild a comrade?"

"They would have to be within three meters away from me… they would have also had someone else kill me, even if it meant they would incur a significant punishment . I am that much of a threat to them!"

I sighed heavily . "Then what's this about a punishment . "

"I don't know about that, either . "

A vein pulsed on my temple . "Then do you know about the reward?"

"I don't…"

This woman was dead weight . Hell, she was useless from the start when she couldn't keep quiet about her skill . She could have kept quiet about this whole thing and lived on a mountain in solitude until the skill was completely activated, and she would have been fine .

"I know what you're worrying about, but I can assure you that everything will be taken care of . "

"You know what I'm worrying about?"

"Yes . "

I doubted she even understood why I turned her down in the first place .

"I won't be able to do anything to you even after the skill is completely activated . "

" . . . "

"The same goes for Master Lagus here . "

"Because of the Comrade effect?"

"Yes . It is because of the Comrade effect and… anyway, it's the truth . I won't lie to you . "

I could see in her eyes a resolution I didn't see before in her . It was pretty overwhelming .

"Mr . Lee, I trust Muskan with my life . If it turns out she is lying, then I will serve you for the rest of my life as your slave . "

"What are you saying, my son?!" Sandip shouted in shock .

"Brother, no!" Akaswhi stood up too, incredulous at what his older brother just uttered .

I was taken aback, as well . I knew the kind of man Lagus Aman was in the past . He would never go back on his word . It was only with that honor that Lagus could create and lead the Liberation Army to such greatness . It was that honor that made Lagus the Alpha and Omega of the Liberation Army .

"Our plan is to use the Manori Creek as the final line of our defense . We have nowhere else to go if we get pushed back farther than this point . We will hold out here until Muskan's skill activates completely . It would be best if you leave this place now, Mr . Lee . " Lagus took a sip from his tea before continuing, "Should we lose, we will compensate you for whatever loss you incur from the Comrade effect . Should we win… well, you'll get your reward either way . "

Lagus's calm words made me feel a bit sheepish for getting that angry . However, I didn't fully trust either of them yet . Muskan made a mess out of something so simple when she couldn't protect her precious secret . Her head was too high in the clouds for something so serious .

However…for some reason, I was beginning to believe in her . That resolution in her eyes was strong .

After a few more words, I spoke up, "I'll stay and observe the situation for now . I'm not… entirely convinced yet . " I wasn't sure what I would do yet, but I didn't want to miss history in the making . "By the way, there's something I've been curious about . Wouldn't it be better to leave India and go into hiding? I'm sure you have a Warp Scroll you can use . "

"No! That is impossible . If I do, then… the skill will fail," Muskan quickly replied .

At the Manori Creek riverbank…

"All Ice Mages freeze the river . "

"Yes, sir!"

"Frozen Earth!"

A good chunk of the 20,000 soldiers were made up of Ice Mages . They gathered together and formed a solid bridge of ice across the four-kilometer river .

I crossed with the Amans and Muskan . Once we crossed, the soldiers made quick work of the ice bridge and destroyed it .

Unsure of what else to do, I ended up joining in on the Ravi Guild's battle preparations .

"The Manori Creek is a strong river, but it won't be enough to slow the enemy's advances . "

"I know . They are definitely stronger than us; they won't have much trouble crossing the river . But, should they form an ice bridge like we did, we can have our Fire Mages force them to lose a good chunk of their forces in the river . If we're lucky, we can stop them for some time . "

"Agreed . It is the best option we have to hurt them, but if we want to stop both guilds completely we will need to deal with the two…"

"Hmm…"

"Ugh…"

I listened in as it seemed that there was a ray of hope for the Ravi Guild, but when they started talking about the two, whoever they were, the officers frowned and spat in annoyance . I kept listening in, but I had no idea who they were talking about .

In the past, the only famous person I had heard about n India, other than Gandhi, was Lagus Aman . I never heard about anyone else, even if they were part of the most powerful guild in India .

"It'll be tough for Master Lagus to deal with both at the same time . "

"That Kiran bastard will be the more annoying of the two . "

"Damn that pest!"

The officers spat at Kiran's name, but I noticed that they occasionally stole glances my way .

"Who is this other person, other than Kiran?" I was getting curious as to who these guys were now . Who were they that they could actually give Lagus a hard time?

"Kiran is from the Sahtaswhi Guild and Madadu is from the Behi-Kinant Guild . "

"Kiran is a deity who has the Equality skill . "

"Equality?"

"Yes . Equality is a skill that forces its target's Stat points to be equally distributed across all five Stats . It can only be used on one person at a time . "

"It's annoying skill for anyone, but it's especially dangerous against mages . Fighter classes will lose out on precious attack power, but mages will completely lose their magic power if their INT and WIL are too low . "

-A skill like that actually exists?-

"There is a side effect to the skill . The user's Stats all go to 1, rendering the user useless in a battle, but they'll use it to take out our strongest player . "

That spelled trouble for the Ravi Guild . Lagus wouldn't be able to use his Psychokinesis Random Skill to its full potential, and would become next to useless in the upcoming battle .

"Madadu is a summoner known as the Blade of Gluttony . He summons a giant, three-meter long sword, and knows how to use it, even though he's a Summoner . "

"If Mr . Lee decides to join in, he will have to face Kiran . His Stats will be high enough to take that loss . "

"If you can take Kiran out, then the battle will be ours . "

" . . . " I didn't say anything back as they fervently replied, as if they were waiting for my questions . I then locked eyes with Muskan, who was sitting off in the corner . Her eyes had no trace of nervousness or fear in them . They weren't filled with malice, either . Her confidence… almost provided comfort for the upcoming battle .

"I'll face Kiran," I said to the officers .

I had no idea what the outcome of my decision would be . I did not know if I would come to regret this later, but a voice in the back of my head said that I had to fight . I had to help the Ravi Guild . No, I had to help Muskan, if I didn't want to regret anything later on .
