Chapter 160 Solemn
Eins turned his attention back to Erika, and was stunned seeing her in front of him, slashing with her sword.
"Die!!!"
"**You don't have the right to ask me that.**"
Erika's sword slashed an afterimage, stunning her...
"**Right behind you.**"
Eins said behind her, and instead to using his sword, he struck her back with his palm.
"AUGH!!"
Erika threw a mouthful of blood, and fell heavily on the ground.
"Erika!!"
The others yelled in shock, but none could move towards her.
Eins moved his crimson gaze on each one of them, and sighed:
"**You're all too weak for what's coming ahead... I suggest you fight only the weak monsters, or you'll just get yourselves killed.**"
He removed the mask, staring at Erika; who slowly stood up with difficulty.
"*"I like your fighting spirit, but without strength, it'll only lead you to death.**" He added.
Whoosh!!!
The group turned their heads to the tree, seeing a little girl, looking only 15 years old walking out... Her hands folded behind her.
"**The Ruler request your presence, First Blade.**" She said with such calmness that confused the players.
"**Ok, It seems the fun is over... We'll meet again.**" Eins said, and disappeared from the sky.
"...."
"This?"
They all turned to the young girl.
Zwei stared at the Humans before her, and stretched forth her hand towards them... A golden rune appeared, and disappeared afterward.
Green light enveloped, Aaron, Erika and the group, instantly healing them.
"Huh?"
"I'm healed, and my divinity fully restored? Such powerful healing skills!" Jennifer was stunned.
Zwei turned around, and walked away.
"Wait! Who are you!" Jennifer quickly asked.
"**I'm known as the second blade under the one and only Ruler.**"
With that said she disappeared, leaving a stunned group of players behind.
"One and only Ruler?"
Aaron murmured to himself.

[Same Day.]
The Conquerors and players all sat around the tree, with countless emotions and thoughts moving in their heads.
Getting defeated so easily didn't sit well with them, especially Erika.
Maria moved her gaze around the group, stood up, and walked towards her sister; who sat some meters from the tree...

"Sister?"
The two looked at one another in confusion.
"I mean the second blade, what's her name again... Yes. Zwei."
"**There's nothing much to think about her, all you need to know is; she's the second blade of the ruler.**" Apate said.
"Ok, But who is this ruler? Is it Micky?"
"**HUH?**"
The two looked at one another, thinking if Jennifer had figured everything out.
"Think about it, you guys called Micky, Ruler... Shenras also called him Ruler... Now, those two said they're working for the Ruler. Most of all; the first has the Aura of Micky." She said, but was still doubtful.
"**We don't know.**"
Reaper said calmly.
"Just my thinking, It might be another creature, but if it's an enemy... Why didn't Eins kill us? He has all the opening and his attack force is even reduced... I'm just confused."
She turned her head to the side, seeing Tyson, discussing something with the male players on the group.
"Forget all that, Let's focus on the issue at hand... After the game, we can figure all this out."
The two nodded their head.

Aaron stood on a branch of the tree, slowly rubbing his ring:
"I should have brought Protean along, at least his powers... What am I saying? Anyone who enters will lose their powers. But why are these guys different?" He muttered, staring at the sleeping group below.
"Anywhere, I hope your power isn't reduced." He said, rubbing the ring.

[Next Day.]
[Second Day in the game.]
"Wake up everyone!! Get ready! We're moving in 15 minutes!!!"
Hearing the loud roar, the players jolted awake; they moved their gazes around the place, and settled it on Erika, who was standing before them with hands on her hips.
"Are you deaf!! Get up right now, we move in 14 minutes!!" She yelled at them, and walked away.
"Wait, what happened to sister?" Maria asked in mild confusion.
"She seems energetic today... What happened last night?" Mira asked, standing up from the ground.
"Ok, What is wrong with her?" Aaron asked himself, and stood up... Still on the tree branch.
"I don't know, Mira." Maria, who was beside Mira shrugged, and stood up.
"Ok, Get your things ready!! We have a long journey ahead of us!! Move, move!!" Erika yelled, her voice getting louder.
The two heard Erika's yell and looked at one another in horror.
"Why does it feel like we're in a military training camp?" Maria asked, a little terrified.
"Come on, let's get ready."
Mira quickly removed the blanket on the ground. White-Death, and the rest of the players followed suit, while Aaron jumped down.
_
"Move!!"
"Em... Erika, what happened?" Jennifer asked, walking towards Erika.
"Good that you're here, help me get them ready... We need to start the journey--"
"--I know, but why are you so..." She didn't complete her word, but Erika smiled.
"Last time we lose because we were weak and careless... But today! That won't happen!" She said.
"Why is that?" Jennifer asked in mild confusion.
