Chapter 263: A Sweet Victory
She continued her slow descent until she majestically touched the ground. She looked like an angel doing it, the speed of the wind slowed and sang with her.
The crowd was completely silent. Mesmerised by the sound, nobody moved an inch. All eyes were on her. The leader of Dragon Slayers saw that she had finally come down as he wanted.
It took him but a second to reach her, but the moment seemed to have slowed down to those who were strong enough to take their eyes off her.
It was an amazing feat, as she was able to subdue thousands upon thousands of players with just her flute.
The music was melancholy, it made most of them sad without knowing why. Some even shed tears, but they were silent. Tears just trickled down their faces, though they were unaware it was happening.
As the leader reached her, he suddenly stopped. Like invisible chains bound him where he stood. He tried to fight it, but he was eventually beaten. He couldn't move anymore, he looked like a child whose candy was jerked from the mouth.
He was starstruck, he was absolutely subdued. The pill that made him insane was starting to wear off because of the flute. Isla didn't know the extent to its effects, she was surprised that this was happening. Even she didn't expect it.
She just hoped to subdue him while her teammates took care of the rest. One by one the black veins were being undone.
The guild master screamed in agony. His eyes were bloodshot, he was now on his knees begging Isla to stop.
The song was burning his essence, it was only targeted at him so he was the only one feeling its sinister effects. He felt like his insides were on fire, it was an itch he couldn't get to. He resorted to squirming on the ground.
Isla didn't pay him no mind, she just kept playing. Even when he wasn't moving anymore, she didn't stop.
When she finished the song, it had drained her mana to the lowest point. She almost went into a comatose state, she fell on her behind, breathing heavily. That's when Saanvi quickly acted and healed her leader, it was her first time hearing this too so it had grabbed her undivided attention too.
"That was a little dangerous, don't you think? At least make it so that we aren't affected." She complained.
"Well, I'm still working on that." She said weakly, her voice was shaky.
She was a bit angry that a guild that was ranked below them made her use her secret weapon. Now, all her cards were out in the open. She didn't have anything that would surprise them.
The rest of her guildmates came to her. They looked ashamed that they couldn't subdue one guy and forced Isa's that almost killed her. She did mention it to them that she had a secret weapon, that she didn't want to use at the beginning stages, even at the later stages she'd use it as a last resort.
"I'm so sorry we're so weak." Von said barely a whisper.
"That's alright Von." She said with a sinister smile, "Though this will be punishable, ten times than last time." She finished through gritted teeth.
Her breathing was becoming steady by the second. They were having their banter as a team. Though Von understood that, the punishment part was serious. He was laughing but a vein popped on his temple.
The crowd went wild seeing the leader splayed on the ground, Isla right besides him getting healed.
"Did you see it, did you hear?"
"Oh my words, she's a goddess!"
"The goddess of asgard!"
There were many compliments, but they made her embarrassed to say the least. She didn't even look at them as she got up.
Ding!
[Congratulations to Dragon Tail on defeating Dragon Slayers on the first ever, all out war. Read exclusive content at m v l em pyr
Because the Dragon Slayers guild leader colluded with a notorious outlaw of asgard and used a berserker pill. He should be executed, but I'm a lenient system, so, he'll be temporarily banned from the game for 3 months and temporarily banned from competing in the guild wars for 6 months.]
"Notorious outlaw? Who is it?"
"So he only got to where he was by doing things that were against the game? The nerve of this guy!"
Even those who initially didn't care that he used a teammate as a meat shield were turning against him. It was entirely different to have the system intervene in your actions.
"What do you expect from a guy who used his own teammates to deflect an arrow?"
"Look who's talking, didn't you say you were joining him nonetheless?"
Kiro and Hiro both jumped to the battle stage, they figured they were allowed now that they've already won.
Isla wasn't talking to him though, tried as he did to sweeten the pot. She wasn't even mad, she just liked the attention at this point.
"You did great, better than I thought you would actually." Kiro said thinking this was a compliment.
"Is that right?" This was about the only thing that made her talk, a backhanded compliment. "Thought we'd be lost without you, did you?"
"Bel, I don't know why you're giving me a hard time but I know you understand my intentions. Now seriously, are you alright?"
"I'm alright, thanks for your concern." She smiled wryly.
"Are you guys even allowed up here? Aren't you overshadowing our win here?" Saanvi asked almost annoyed.
While she was almost annoyed she was half smiling. Nikolai, Ishaan and Felix had joined them They wanted to congratulate their friends from the amazing win too, though Chasing Madness wasn't too used to them so they decided to stay behind..
"You're terrible at hiding that you love us." Kiro told her.
Saanvi simply gave him a tired smile. Which he returned with an enthusiastic smile. He congratulated them with all of his being. He was truly proud of them. They were walking off the stage, laughing and having great conversations.
Ding!
