Chapter 196 - 195 Pathetic Death
Aquitax couldn"t do anything. It couldn"t get out of the water, nor would it escape. It couldn"t attack Zach either since all its attacks were useless.
It was left hopeless. All it could do was wait for its HP to reach 0 and die helplessly.
Five minutes later: HP- [9599936]
Another five minutes later: HP- [5099966]
Five more minutes later: HP- [599996]
Aquitax desperately tried everything it could in the last fifteen minutes to save itself, but everything was futile. It even used its illusion technique again and showed Zach the illusion of Aurora, Zoe, and Erza, thinking it would make Zach weak, but that just made Zach even more furious.
Zach and perfect defense (Victoria) and attack (Aria). However, he didn"t have unlimited mental strength.
Zach lost control over the water, and the water ball broke apart.
Aquitax immediately dashed at him under the water.
Zach had yet to get back to his senses, so Aria and Victoria got in front of Zach to protect him. But Zach pulled them back and threw them back on the rock.
"Zach!" they both yelled with a concerned look on their faces.
Aquitax emerged from the Sea and moved its claw to rip Zach apart. However, its body slowly turned into ashes, and it dissolved into the Sea.
HP -[0]
"How sad," Zach uttered with a vicious grin on his face. "The last boss died in the most pathetic way possible."
Aria and Victoria landed beside Zach and yelled at him for putting his life at risk.
"If you had such a powerful weapon, why didn"t you use it on the Soul eater?" Victoria asked with a judging look on her face.
"I was going to, but to use this dagger, I would have to unequip my gloves first. Everything happened so fast that I didn"t have time for it. And at the same time, the soul eater had fired the light beam, so I had to keep my gloves on to absorb the attack." Zach nodded and responded in a calm voice.
Zach picked up the dagger and handed it to Aria before saying, "I think this belongs to you."
Aria gave it back to Zach and said, "I can"t use it even if I want to since it"s soul bound to you now. And besides, I can pluck my feathers and make as many daggers as I want."
Zach raised his brows and said, "But you can"t change your form, right?"
"Yeah, but I can manage to turn back to my G.o.ddess form for a few seconds, but only in my domain since my powers are at the peak there," Aria stated.
"Fair enough."
Zach equipped his gloves and stood in the middle of the floor to wait for the rewards for clearing the dungeon to the 100th floor.
"What are you doing?" Victoria asked with a confused look on her face.
"Rewards…." Zach muttered with an awkward smile.
"You should have already received the rewards," Victoria a.s.serted. "Check your inventory."
"What is the reward for dungeon clearance anyway?" Zach asked with a curious look on his face and added, "Since you have also cleared the dungeon to the 100th floor in the beginner"s realm."
Victoria squinted her eyes at Zach and said, "Why don"t you check it yourself?"
SIGH
Zach opened his inventory to see a mythical rank armor, mythical rank staff, mythical rank ring. 500,000 coins. 50,000 Divine grade jade runes. And an envelope.
"What did you get?" Victoria asked curiously. "Since you are the one who did most of the work, you should have gotten some handsome rewards."
Zach raised his brows and asked, "What about you two?"
"I got a mythical rank bow and an epic rank cape to wear. Apparently, it increases my defense by 60. Then, I have got 100,000 coins and 10,000 divine grade jade rules," Aria responded in a calm voice.
"I have got a mythical rank sword and an epic rank dagger. 100,000 coins and 10,000 divine grade jade runes," Victoria responded while checking her inventory.
"You guys didn"t get the envelope?" Zach asked curiously.
"Nope…" Victoria shook her head and said, "But first, tell us your rewards."
"I got a mythical rank armor, mythical rank staff, mythical rank ring. 500,000 coins. 50,000 Divine grade jade runes. And an envelope."
Zach selected the envelope, and it appeared in his hand.
Aria and Victoria gathered around Zach to see what it was.
"Invitation to secret realm…?" Zach read the words on the envelope before opening it.
Inside the envelope, there was a palm-sized black card.
"It"s like a credit card…" Victoria muttered.
"Kred.i.c.k kard?" Aria muttered with a confused look on her face. "What"s that?"
Victoria looked at Aria with a judging look on her face and asked, "You don"t know what a credit card is? Sure, you are a G.o.ddess and all, but you should be able to see what"s happening on the earth, right?"
"That"s not how it works." Aria scoffed softly and explained, "Even the current 12 G.o.ds can"t see what"s happening in the real world or in this game."
"So, how do they know everything?" Victoria asked with a curious yet puzzled look on her face.
"They have angels watching everyone, but they don"t interfere," Zach quipped.
"And they can"t see everything. They take turns and inform the G.o.ds if something happens. But mostly, they simply watch and enjoy. It"s their job, and to do that every day... no wonder they are bored," Zach added with a scoff.
Aria was surprised to know that Zach knew about that. No one was supposed to know that since it has never been told to anyone. It was heaven"s secret, and no one should know about it since it showed how lazy and incompetent the G.o.ds were.
Of course, Zach knew it because Erza had told him. Not only that, she had told him many things about the creation of humans and why they came into existence, but Aria also told Zach about that a few days ago.
