My King System

"Clan leader Yuki, may I have your permission to change my ability?" Arthur asked suddenly as his tone continued to stay cold towards anyone he spoke to.

"Huh?" Yuki asked in a confused tone. Of course Arthur was needed to keep his ability active nearly all the time so that the clan's missions could continue to exist. Without those, the entirety of the FFF's WD clan would crumble to dust. He was the walls of the clan which helped it stay up, without Arthur's ability, many things could go wrong and put Yuki's clan in a huge disadvantage when it came in comparison to other clans.

However, on the other hand, Arthur was one of Yuki's greatest warriors. As such, it would be in Yuki's best interest to keep Arthur happy. Although that never seemed to be a problem until now due to Arthur's accepting nature which made it so that he always listened to what Yuki had told him.

This time was different though. It was a direct request from Arthur in which he referred to Yuki as the clan leader meaning that he wasn't asking his friend but his leader. Due to this fact, Yuki would only have one choice in this matter which was clear.

"Yea, do as you please," Yuki replied to Arthur who simply turned around to look at Yuki before giving a nod and staring back at the last and final remaining member of the group which was sent to deal with Yuki from the global government.

...

...

...

After a few moments of Arthur just looking around in his settings and changing his ability, he finally pressed the "x" button to close his settings and finally give his full undivided attention to his enemy.

Although the final remaining member of the enemy group could have attacked Arthur, he didn't. What was odd was the fact that he had claimed to not fear Arthur nor Yuki or anyone for that matter but still seemed to be shaking.

Sweat could be seen on his face but nevertheless, he kept a blank face which was clearly an illusion that fooled no one as it was clear who was the superior in that match up.

However before Arthur began to do anything, he spoke one final time to the attack force which Yuki had brought in to deal with GNE.

"Yuki, do you mind taking everyone outside and waiting for me there," Arthur asked in a more casual tone which was faked so that Yuki and the others would listen. Even though they had caught on to Arthur's lie, they still listened as he was the second most dependable man in their group.

With a single nod, Yuki along with the others went back outside and moved a couple dozen metres away from the GNE building as they waited for Arthur to finish what he needed to do.

"So what are you planning to do?" the remaining member of the enemy group asked Arthur while still trying to act confident.

"This is the end. There's no reason for you to continue talking. The battle had been concluded. There is no chance that you'll survive nor is there a chance that anyone will rescue you from here. Just slow yourself to die," Arthur said in a calm tone.

Hearing those words, the remaining member wanted to continue his act but seeing as it was all pointless, he gave up and sat with his legs crossed on the ground before taking in a deep breath.

...

"Activate ability:..."

As Arthur continued to speak, the room which the two of them were in began to fill with white smoke which seemed very similar to fog. Their vision began to get blurry which didn't seem to worry both of them. Arthur because he was the one creating it and the enemy member because he had already accepted his fate. 

Once the room had been completely filled with white gas, Arthur let out a final sigh which seemed to exude both relief and pity before finally locking his middle finger and thumb.

":... Gas Combustion"

With a snap of his fingers, Arthur caused the white smoke to begin burning before it instantly exploded within the span of just a few milliseconds. 

From the outside view, Yuki and the others could see the entirely of the GNE building grow in size as it inflated before allowing some of the light from the explosion to show then when it finally couldn't hold the explosion inside of it, the building itself exploded into hundreds of not thousands of pieces which all flew out in different directions. 

...

"My apologies, the job is done, we can head home now," said Arthur as he walked out of the GNE building which was burning while still being in rubble. What Arthur expected was an applause from the attack force which Yuki had created for his good work inside the GNE. After all, he had done the job which everyone was sent there for all by himself. As such, it would be the bare minimum that they could do to congratulate Arthur on his hard work and dedication to the clan. However what awaited Arthur was much more difficult.

"Arthur!" Batol yelled out in a clearly angry tone as he sprinted towards Arthur while carrying a wooden baseball bat which he randomly got from nowhere but was most likely from his inventory. 

Without wasting a single second, Batol leaped high in the air before grabbing hold of his wooden bat with both his hands as he gripped it as right as he possibly could. Using all the power in his body, Batol swung his bat as hard as possible while aiming right for Arthur's head as he hoped to deliver a lethal blow.

Seeing this, Arthur barely managed to move his head back and bend his body so that he would dodge the attack with just a second remaining before the bat would make contact with his body.

"Are you nuts or something?! Why are you trying to kill me out of nowhere?!" Arthur asked in a panicked tone as he didn't understand what reason Batol would have had to attack someone who basically did all of the work for the entire clan all by themselves.

Although Arthur had asked a reasonable question, Batol simply looked at him with anger filled eyes. Seeing this, Arthur turned towards Yuki for some help as he didn't understand why he was being targeted as if he was the enemy.

To make his situation even worse, not only Batol but the other members of the attack force began to surround Arthur as they joined Batol in hopes of taking down Arthur once and for all.

"You'll pay for your crimes you scoundrel!" one of them said while yelling at Arthur. 

With every passing second, Arthur's confusion began to grow as he didn't understand what was happening. It didn't make sense why Batol was attacking him but Arthur had a feeling that Batol didn't like him very much, however with everyone else attacking him except for Yuki, that was too far.

After Arthur was left standing in the middle of the circle which was created by the attack force for a while, all of them nodded at each other before they all leaped at Arthur so he couldn't escape.

"Man this is bad. Could it be that a parasite type of ability has taken over their bodies and is now trying to kill anyone that could be a threat to them?" Arthur asked himself as that was the only possible explanation as to why his previous friends were attacking him. Even the top 5 members of the WD clan which were now a part of FFF's WD clan were attacking Arthur.

"I guess I have no choice. If I allow them to continue to live, it'll be my fault that they would roam the planet and be used as weapons by whoever is controlling them. I would rather see them dead by my own hands than to allow them to be puppets. Please forgive me, may you all Rest In Peace," said Arthur with a calm voice as it seemed like time itself began to slow down for him.

"Activate ability: Gas Combustion-"

Right before Arthur could use his newly acquired ability, a large menacing aura came up behind him which seemed to stop Arthur right in his tracks as it became difficult for him to even breathe.

"W-What the hell is that?" Arthur asked in a confused tone as he turned around only to see Yuki who was standing behind him.

"Have you taken control of it as well?" Arthur asked in a pitying tone but this time, Arthur pitied himself as if Yuki was being used as a puppet, there would be no one who would be strong enough to stop him.

"I think you've taken it too far Batol. It was just a little debris that got on your clothes. It's not that much of a big deal. As for you Arthur, you overreacted just a little too much. I mean you would really kill everyone here just because you assumed that they were being controlled. Actually never mind that, it was a good idea but it was still wrong," Yuki said to Arthur which only confused Arthur more.
