Versatile: Alternate World

325 Tina Vs. Lemis (I)

Passing through the gates, instead of the insect people, demonic creatures and other demonic minions are currently walking in the streets with the houses and the insect people's businesses were in ruins. You wouldn't expect this was a proper town until yesterday.

"The enemies are quite numerous. I don't know where the insect people are being kept by the demons but I can tell that they are still alive as they don't immediately kill them off unless they served their purposes. That's how most of the demons work."

"What are they even planning to do? Also, I didn't notice the number of demons around is just getting numerous as we pass by," Lucia blasted one demon that tried to block the way using her fireball.

"Don't bother beating up all of them. Only bother if they try to block your way. Our main goal is to reach the castle. If we have multiple people who can handle every monster here, it would be a breeze for us to go to our destination," Atlas grumbled as he slices through the demons.

So far, the demons inside are just regular demons, unremarkable, and seem like cannon fodders. They can be threatening if they group in numbers but if they are eliminated immediately, it's not a big problem at all.

The demons keep obstructing us and behind us are a plethora of demons wanting to kill us. They are not strong but they are too many for every one of us to handle. Since they are weak enough for us to kill in one slash using our weapons, I decided to use this chance to eliminate a few of our pursuers. Not only will help eliminate a few enemies but it will rack me up with some gold and experience, not to mention, the automatic drops I receive the moment I kill an enemy. They might not be that much value compared to the loot you can get once enemies that are killed drop something, but they can at least be useful in creating things.

With a quick sidestep and facing behind me, I changed my weapon's form into a cannon. With a grin, I pull the trigger, causing the cannon to shoot out a massive cannonball that before the following demons can react, were swept away by the huge metal ball that came crashing straight to them.

After doing that, I changed my weapon's form back into a gun and returned to facing the front.

"Damn, Master, you are on a roll today!" Atlas gives a thumbs up.

"We are still not done though, keep on moving! We can't keep on dawdling!"

...

Halfway to our infiltration into the kingdom, two demon dogs appeared before us.

[Orthrus Hound]

Level 100

HP: 300,000/300,000

Type: Beast, Dark

"Orthrus hounds!" I screamed in my mind.

If there are Orthrus hounds, that only means the original Orthrus and its sibling, the Cerberus might also be here.

"Things are just getting more exciting huh?" I gritted my teeth as I started to rain the enemy with a rain of bullets.

The Orthrus hounds immediately revealed their prowess as the moment the bullets were fired, they immediately dodged it like it was nothing. Quick and precise dodge, the bullets didn't even land a graze to the dogs.

Goddang these bastards are as slimy as ever, using the guns just doesn't do well with them and I am not so astute on how to slay them using the gun. I sighed before changing the form of my gun back to the magic sword and performing a few slashes to bait them.

The moment they disappeared, I immediately unleashed the real attack and slain the first Orthrus Hound. I just repeated the process to the second Hound and it died before it can do anything.

"Let's speed up the pace, we are almost to the palace!"

...

We continue running until we are stopped. Tina's eyes couldn't believe it and she was shaking to boot the moment she saw the two figures walking straight to us.

"Mom! Dad!"

The insect kingdom's rulers, the king, and queen were now similar to a lifeless corpse that appeared before us. The king though is currently wearing a combat armor he uses at war since this was the armor he used to fight back in the past timeline, but the difference now is his choice of weapons. Not only does he get rid of the last timelines weapons, the swords but he changed to a new playstyle, and weapons.

The Weapons of Pride Sin. The Spear of Superbia and Shield of Vanagloria.

And despite looking like an undead, it was clear that he is still not fully deprived of life and it seems he is still able to hold on. As for the queen, it seems she didn't survive as she looked like a standing empty corpse and seems to have only followed her husband by instinct alone.

"Tina, do you want to confront them? They are your parents..."

Tina shook her head and pulled her rapier out.

"As much as I pain to say this, they are no longer my parents. However, I don't want to face them but I want them to lay down to rest forever. That is all I could ask for."

That's when I understood.

"Alright. Then go, Lina and I will stay here to fight them. Lucia, Atlas, provides support to Tina as she goes and confronts the enemy. Don't worry about me and go."

Lucia and Atlas nodded. Tina nodded and immediately sets out to go to where her sister is. King Goliath then made a move and uses his spear to almost stab Tina in the chest.

PENG!

"Hey, little bastard, nice weapon and armor you got there, care to take them off and give them to me, especially your weapon, it seems to look like a delicious food to my weapon."

...

...

...

Tina alongside Lucia and Atlas continues to climb the stairs to reach the next hallway where Alexandria is. Just as they were about to reach the throne room, they were blocked by the butler.

"A butler? Perhaps, the name of the butler is Sebastian?" Lucia frowned.

The demonic butler lifted his monocle a little bit and his left eyebrow is raised in curiosity.

"Oh? How did you know that I was Sebastian? That is quite rather astute..."

"Damn, are all butlers named Sebastian or Sebas right now?" Lucia felt a headache is incoming.

"As much as you all want to continue past this point, I am afraid your journey will have to stop here, yes," the butler then gives off a menacing grin.

"Did you really think we are afraid of you?" Atlas immediately went to fight in full swing but...

DANG!

Using his fingers, Sebas catches the huge blade of Atlas like nothing. Not only that but the flames on his other hand were Lucia's work as she tried to sneak an attack the moment Atlas attacked.

"Child's play. It didn't take too much for me to stop you all from advancing. My defenses are impenetrable."

"Really? Then how come you managed to let someone slip past you? Aren't your defenses just a joke?"

Sebas stopped the moment Lucia said that. He looked around and realized one more enemy is missing.

"Hey, old man! Where do you think you are looking at?!"

DANG!

The dull thud came when Atlas swings his sword again at the demon butler. Unfortunately, Sebastian is strong enough to handle the brunt of the sword of Atlas.

"Don't bother, even if you try to die, you can't keep on dying. Now, before I chase over the one who escaped, I will take my time to enjoy adding the two of you to my location of corpses. Don't bother trying to run away, alright?"

...

Tina made her way further to the throne room where the final adversary is currently sitting.

"Ha, stupid sister, who would have thought that the day I see you again right now?" Alexandria menacingly stares at Tina as she stays on the throne.

"Well, it's a tough world out there, it is natural that I will have to kill you soon enough, you demon. I will be retaking the body of my sister that you have stolen since childbirth!"

Instead of feeling the sense of dread, Alexandria grinned.

"What can you do? You are just a weakling insect person that doesn't have anything worth. You don't even have a mark. You shouldn't even be dwelling here in the first place."

Tina controls her rage to attack. As much as she wanted to rush through the enemy before her, she can't just keep on rushing the fight. With all the traits she developed while facing Bladeheart and the others, she can now understand the situation more and calm herself before she gets caught by the taunt.

"Give back the body of my sister and die!"

Alexandria grins as she stood up from the throne room.

"It seems you have indeed a death wish, Tina-sama."

With a wave from her hands, the weapons appeared before them like it was nothing.

"Now, go and pick whatever you like. the wish you had to die."
