MMORPG: Rebirth of the Mortal Online

Chapter 245: Ragnarokia



While the looming threat of the dark clouds was still a long distance away, the war didn't stop even for a moment.

By one of the streets, a new mercenary, who only two months ago finished his tutorial,

watched as his fellow soldiers died all around him.

This was an insane sight to him.

'This is stupid...'

He took a few steps back.

'None of those Handlers spoke anything about this!'

He turned around, wanting to leave, but the soldiers behind him kept pushing him forward as they had to follow orders and advance.

At that moment, a shower of arrows rained down on them from the sky and stabbed through their armor like it was paper.

Everyone around the young man died, but he miraculously survived without a scratch.

His legs were shaking uncontrollably as he stood frozen in shock.

At that moment, an enemy soldier approached him with a war cry. He looked into the soldier's eyes and saw fear instead of malice.

Both were afraid.

Stab!

The sword went through the young man's chest, and he fell to the ground with his body turning cold like the winter snow.

'None of the Handlers prepared me for this... this sucks...'

...

Aria looked through the window at the smoke that rose high to the sky.

The door behind her opened, and Richard entered the room with his head hanging low.

"You tried to escape, why?" She asked.

"This war has nothing to do with me." Richard said. "Just a bunch of egos fighting against each other."

"A childish mindset, as always." Aria shook her head in disappointment. "This war is for the future of our family. You're my son, and the next head of the family!"

"This war is for the family or for you?" Richard asked. "You want to share the throne with Moriarty, don't you? You want to be his little queen."

Aria grabbed him by the cheeks and made it so that he couldn't speak another word.

"Listen here, Richard. You can be king one day. Don't you want to be one?"

"..." Richard couldn't speak a word, but his eyes told everything—he didn't want to.

Aria pushed him away and turned back to the window. "You lack ambition; that makes you weak, Richard."

Richard scoffed and walked out of the room, closing the door with a loud slam.

...

A distance away from the Imperium City, the ground had shattered, and the lightning bolts continued to strike down from the dark clouds.

The sight was like from a nightmare.

Through the broken ground, Moriarty jumped back to the surface, and saw the massive creature slither above the dark clouds.

"Who are you, and what do you want from my city?"

"Your city?"

The voice was so loud that it seemed to shake the entire earth.

Moriarty winced and held his ears. If he listened to that voice longer than a second, his eardrums would surely burst. His ears were already bleeding.

"Yes, my city!"

Through the dark clouds, a shadowy face revealed itself. It didn't look like the shape of a human face, but something entirely different. It was also covered in a shadow that seemed to be moving and shifting, as if alive.

"I've come to destroy "your" city!"

Moriarty crossed his arms in front of him as those words created a powerful shockwave that almost knocked him off his feet.

"Why?"

"Your kind destroyed my home, so I will destroy yours!"

"What's your home?"

Shh~

With a strange sound, the creature said. "Godswood!"Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Moriarty frowned. 'A creature of this magnitude shouldn't have lived there. It had God Beasts, yes, but this is beyond that. This is the Divine Beast. It lived there, but where there?'

"Your kind burned my home, so I will burn yours!"

"Yeah, I'll stop you." Moriarty put one hand to the ground and lowered his stance like he was about to pounce.

"You? Stop me? Hah!"

The creature found it amusing. It could tell the difference in their strength levels, and this

human in front of it had no chance in hell of defeating it!

A golden light burst out of Moriarty's body like a supernova.

"Gold Meteor!"

Swoosh!

With the speed of a meteor, Moriarty took flight and soared straight through the dark clouds, flying so high that he was soon hovering above the massive creature that was as long as the road that went from Imperium City to the nearby village of Darkhaven!

The Divine Beast turned its head to the golden man and released a breath of flames that made the sky a sea of flames!

With a rush of speed, Moriarty flew circles around the Divine Beast's enormous body and left behind a golden trail that seemed to survive through the divine flames.

In the sky, a golden circle appeared.

The speed was so high that he was able to drown the flames with the gust of winds that followed in his wake.

At that moment, a tail swung in his direction and smacked Moriarty off the skies.

He flew down and crashed through the ground like a meteor. It made the ground shatter,

creating a crater of destruction in its wake.

The tail moved so quickly that it was just impossible to dodge it.

However, while buried in the ground, Moriarty licked the blood off his lips and put his hands together like he was a statue of a glorious Buddha.

The golden circle in the sky turned bright like a sun and wrapped around the Divine Beast's massive body. It was like a ring of fire created by the gods themselves.

"Golden Circle of Heavens, Grand Trapment!"

The golden circle burned into the Divine Beast's body. It made the creature let out a powerful

scream of pain.

It was so loud that the ground shook all the way in the Imperium City. Moriarty jumped up to the surface and cloned thousands of large-bladed swords around him.

With a wave of the hand, the swords flew towards the Divine Beast and smashed into its

indestructible scales.

"Golden Circle of Heavens, Grand Massacre!"

"You have skills, I admit that! However!"

With a burst of power, the Divine Beast shattered the golden circle that kept him bound and

roared in defiance.

"My name is Ragnarokia!" The Divine Beast opened its mouth wide and released a beam of pure energy that obliterated everything in its path.

The beam struck directly into Moriarty, melting his flesh and turning his bone into ash. With his loud screams vanishing, the beam drilled through the ground and made the surrounding

land crumble and collapse into an abyss.

It was absolute destruction.

Ragnarokia took flight once again, and the dark clouds wrapped around its massive body like a

black blanket.

It looked over to the looming city.

It wasn't done with the destruction, as its hatred burned strong like a raging inferno.

...

In the destroyed, burned ground, an arm reached out, and then a figure climbed out of the burned soil, gasping for breath and covered in ash.

'The Divine Beast is not a joke.' Moriarty thought with a frown and summoned his flying

sword next to him.

'The Imperium City is done for. No matter, it's just buildings. We can rebuild.'

With the flying sword, he started flying away from the Imperium City.
