As time passed,
Su Lie grew increasingly anxious.
He couldn't defeat the three demonic beasts in front of him.
He couldn't even fight back.
And behind them, hundreds more were drawing near.
After more than a decade guarding the Great Wall,
Su Lie, commander of the Wall Guard, was never afraid of death.
But what he didn't want to see
was these monsters breaking through to the city behind him.
There were countless civilians inside, many of them children.
"Damn it!"
Watching the demonic horde draw closer, Su Lie clenched his fists.
If only I had more power…
Power?
Suddenly, a thought struck him.
In the next moment,
a dark gleam spread across his arms and the blade in his hands.
Armament Haki.
He had purchased it just yesterday, after snagging a red envelope from Carl in the chat group store.
He'd tested it then, its power was impressive.
Once activated, his body became as tough as steel.
But today…
he'd been too distracted by the opening of the city gates,
and the sudden ambush from the demonic horde
made him forget he even had it.
Now, with Haki flowing through his limbs,
Su Lie resumed his battle with the three monsters.
Although he still couldn't defeat them outright,
he was no longer stuck in pure defense,
he could strike back.
The Haki had clearly boosted both his strength and endurance.
Still…
he couldn't defeat these three anytime soon,
and the other hundreds were just five meters away now.
It's not enough.
If only I had a stronger version of Haki…
Then I could kill all of them myself.
Su Lie let out a quiet sigh.
He knew he was reaching his limit.
But this time,
he didn't panic like before.
Remembering the Haki reminded him of something else:
The chat group.
After exchanging a few blows with the beasts,
Su Lie suddenly broke away from the fight.
He retreated from the gate, abandoning his defensive post.
Then, without hesitation, he opened the chat group interface.
Wall Guard Commander: @GodAmongMen @everyone
Wall Guard Commander: Carl-sama, everyone…
Wall Guard Commander: This is an emergency. The gate city is under attack. I need your help!
Blade King: ??
Blade King: What happened, General Su?
What Do I Do, My Sister's a Chuunibyou?: Yeah, why the sudden panic?
What Do I Do, My Sister's a Chuunibyou?: Wasn't it just bustling with people a second ago?
Thousand-Hand Princess: General Su, don't worry, just tell us what's going on.
Wall Guard Commander: These monsters are extremely dangerous. They frequently attack humans.
Wall Guard Commander: They have beast-like forms and immense physical strength. Some can even wield strange powers.
Wall Guard Commander: Now, hundreds of them have appeared outside the city.
Wall Guard Commander: And there are only civilians here, no guards at all. Please, help me protect them.
What Do I Do, My Sister's a Chuunibyou?: This is beyond me…
What Do I Do, My Sister's a Chuunibyou?: Carl-sama, please do something! @GodAmongMen
GodAmongMen: I'd help if I could, but there's no mission posted in the group, I can't cross over yet.
Wall Guard Commander: Then… how do I post a mission?
GodAmongMen: I'm not sure. I've never done it before. @Thousand-Hand Princess
Blade King: Right, didn't Tsunade post one last time? How did she do it?
Thousand-Hand Princess: Uh… I don't really know either.
Thousand-Hand Princess: I just really wanted to save Nawaki… and the mission just popped up.
Wall Guard Commander: I want to save these people just as badly…
Wall Guard Commander: But nothing's showing up.
Thousand-Hand Princess: Maybe… you need to offer a reward?
Blade King: That might be it. I remember Tsunade used all her points as a reward for her mission.
Thousand-Hand Princess: That's right! I used all the points I got from check-ins!
Wall Guard Commander: Is that so? Then I'll try.
Wall Guard Commander: I'm offering all 49 of my points to anyone who can help defeat the monsters and protect the city!
That was everything he had left.
After purchasing Armament Haki, Su Lie had given away the rest of his points in a red envelope.
If he hadn't grabbed some of his own, he'd have nothing.
What Do I Do, My Sister's a Chuunibyou?: Whoa! A mission just popped up!
What Do I Do, My Sister's a Chuunibyou?: Now I know how to post one! I can do it next time too!
What Do I Do, My Sister's a Chuunibyou?: Too bad it's marked "Extremely Difficult." I can't handle something like that.
Thousand-Hand Princess: "Extremely Difficult"? Mine says just "Difficult"…
Blade King: Mine says "Extremely Difficult" too.
Blade King: Maybe it's personalized based on our strength?
What Do I Do, My Sister's a Chuunibyou?: That makes sense.
Wall Guard Commander: Carl-sama… the mission…
What Do I Do, My Sister's a Chuunibyou?: This is life and death.
What Do I Do, My Sister's a Chuunibyou?: Carl-sama, please, save the city. @GodAmongMen
In the World of Kings
Su Lie saw the mission update in the chat group.
The tension on his face finally eased.
Now that Carl had accepted the mission,
there was nothing more to worry about.
After all,
this was the man who could travel through time and raise the dead.
Compared to that,
what were a few hundred monsters?
At that moment,
the three lead demonic beasts lunged at Su Lie.
Seeing his relaxed expression,
they were instantly enraged.
Are you looking down on us?!
You were just on the verge of death!
With a thunderous roar, the three beasts launched their attack.
Su Lie once again activated his Armament Haki, clashing with them head-on.
Meanwhile,
hundreds of monsters surged past him toward the city gates.
A few were already stepping into the outskirts.
"GRRRAHHH!"
Seeing the crowds of unarmed civilians inside,
the monsters let out an unintelligible shriek.
But it sounded…
almost joyful.
Just then,
a figure descended from the sky.
Black hair.
Dark eyes.
A handsome, striking face.
An S-shaped insignia on his chest.
A sleek black battle suit sculpted his frame,
and a flowing cape trailed behind him.
Carl.
