I Became a Level -99 Vicious Lord

TL: IDevK11

Editor: Capitano

The knights affected by ‘Petrification Eye’ were extremely bewildered.

Parts of their bodies that were previously intact had turned into stone and hardened, so it was not unreasonable for them to be shocked.

“Groan! Ugh!”

One knight tried to move his petrified left leg by any means possible.

But that was definitely not a good choice.

-Crack!

Due to applying too much force, the petrified leg shattered into pieces.

“Arghh!”

The knight with the broken leg lost his balance and fell.

“What is this… It’s unbelievable…”

A knight who had just lost one of his legs looked at the stone fragments that were once part of his body and lost his expression of despair.

Who could have imagined losing a leg so tragically?

The other knights were in a similar predicament.

“Groan!”

“Ugh!”

Their body parts had petrified like stone, preventing them from making proper movements and causing them to struggle.

(This is it.)

Otto smiled as he looked at those knights.

The second skill of the ‘Eye of Calypso,’ called ‘Petrification Eye,’ continuously reduces the HP of enemies.

Although it may not deal significant damage, it is a value that cannot be ignored.

However, the truly terrifying aspect was the petrification effect.

[Petrification Eye:

Description: Emit a gray flash beam from the eyes to deal magic damage to enemies every second and petrify them.

Enemies with low magic resistance petrify more quickly.

As the user’s level increases, the cooldown time decreases, and the duration, damage, and petrification probability increase.

Cooldown: 300 seconds

Duration: 60 seconds

Since the skill has just been unlocked, its destructive power is not significant yet.

It was limited to dealing slight damage to enemies and petrifying parts of their bodies.

However, in the current situation, this level of effect was sufficient.

-Slash!

Otto swung his sword towards the struggling knights affected by petrification.

Thump, thump, thump.

Without even checking for death, Otto turned around and moved towards his next target.

There was no need to confirm their deaths.

The fallen knights would not rise again.

***

The battlefield, entangled by the forces of the Kingdom of Iota, the rebels, and the suppressors, was a chaotic mess, to put it bluntly.

The battle took on a 1 vs. 1 vs. 1 format.

With no clear division between the factions, all three forces were mixed together on a single battlefield, creating such a chaotic scene that was unimaginable.

Of course, amid all this, the Kingdom of Iota displayed tremendous combat prowess and was leading the battle towards victory.

“Aaargh!”

“Surrender, we surrender!”

“Please spare our lives!”

Without exception, the soldiers of the Kingdom of Roshan laid down their weapons and surrendered, be it the suppressors or the rebels.

As the battle gradually subsided…

“You! You!”

Alex, the Duke who couldn’t overcome his anger and had thrown himself into the fight, discovered Otto and erupted in rage.

“How dare you deceive me and still be alive!”

At that moment…

“You… Otto de Scuderia? You were supposed to be dead!”

The Crown Prince, leading a group of knights, looked at Otto with a puzzled expression.

“How is it possible for you to be alive?”

“Oh, that.”

Otto chuckled and removed his mask.

“You see, the mercenary leader you hired to carry out the assassination was actually me.”

“What…?”

“Since I couldn’t commit suicide, I had to pretend to be dead.”

“This… This…!!!”

The Crown Prince, realizing he had been deceived, trembled in anger.

Cain, whom he had trusted, turned out to be Otto de Scuderia?

(Why on earth?)

The Crown Prince couldn’t comprehend the reasons behind Otto saving him, adding to the shock he had already received.

His thought process briefly experienced a lag due to the overwhelming impact.

However, the Crown Prince was not a fool, and it didn’t take him long to grasp the situation.

“Could it be… this was all part of your plan? To incite a civil war in our homeland and seize the territory?”

“Correct~.”

“How dare someone like you… defy our homeland?”

The Crown Prince, unable to conceal his anger.

“You despicable creature! Did you think you could toy with Roshan and get away with it?”

Alex, who had been eavesdropping on the conversation between Otto and the Crown Prince, also unleashed his anger.

“Uncle, it seems that we need to postpone our personal grudges for now.”

“…I agree.”

Alex nodded in agreement with the Crown Prince’s words.

Although they were sworn enemies, it was not the case at the moment.

Since Otto had become a common enemy, they needed to join forces, at least for now.

“Tear him apart.”

“The price for defying Roshan can only be paid with death.”

The Crown Prince and Alex simultaneously rushed towards Otto.

But it didn’t end there.

Dozens of knights surrounding the Crown Prince and Alex also closed in on Otto, attacking him from all sides.

Their sole purpose was to kill Otto, and they would do anything to achieve it.

***

(Danger!)

Camille, who was traversing the battlefield, immediately rushed with all his might when he saw Otto in danger.

As a knight, it was unacceptable to abandon a king in distress, wasn’t it?

However, Otto seemed to not need Camille’s help.

“Go!”

Otto shouted towards Camille.

“Go and help our soldiers! I’ll handle things here!”

“But…”

“Hurry!”

Otto raised his voice with a firm tone.

“Trust me! I won’t die! Trusting your king is also the duty of a knight, isn’t it?”

“Well…”

“Go quickly!”

“Understood.”

In the end, Camille turned his steps at Otto’s words, deciding to face all those enemies on his own.

“I won’t doubt you.”

At this moment, Camille chose to trust Otto.

Otto, the one who possessed the power of the Invincible Emperor.

Although he had just taken his first steps on this path, he still had to single-handedly deal with Roshan Kingdom’s elites.

If that’s the case…

(The Highness has tied the elites’ feet. The enemies currently have a significant gap in their forces. I have to do well.)

Camille quickly realized what he needed to do and how to do it.

While Otto faced the Crown Prince, Alex, and the knights, Camille’s mission was to sway the battlefield as much as possible.

On the other hand, Otto, surrounded by enemies, was busy dealing with their attacks without a moment’s rest.

Enemies here, enemies there.

-Swish! Swish!

-Clang!

Dozens of swords flew from all directions.

[Lad! Do you need help?]

[Hey! Brat! Answer me!]

[You useless fool! Can’t you respond?]

Kairos shouted in frustration as Otto didn’t reply.

(Oh well, just stop talking, will ya?)

Otto didn’t need Kairos’ help either.

(To become stronger, I have to risk my life.)

Otto wanted to experience real battles.

There was a huge difference between playing as Otto de Scuderia in the game and becoming the real Otto de Scuderia.

To become stronger, he needed to gain more experience through real battles and become accustomed to this sensation.

‘I’ll follow the training.’

Following the movements of the Invincible Swordsmanship, Otto deflected every sword that came his way.

“Quite impressive! You will die here!”

Alex swung his sword, covered in a blue aura, fiercely towards Otto.

“You will never survive.”

At the same time, the Crown Prince’s sword, also enveloped in aura, aimed for Otto’s heart.

-Clang!

Otto deflected the Crown Prince’s sword.

-Swish!

Alex’s sword aimed for Otto’s forehead, descending from above.

“Puhh!”

Otto spat out the ‘Vile Death Orb’ towards Alex.

-Whoosh!

The ‘Vile Death Orb’ pierced through Alex’s temple, exiting through the back of his head.

Penetrating.

It pierced through his skull as if it were a bullet.

-Thump!

Collapsed, Alex’s eyes wide open, showing no signs of movement.

“…!”

“…!”

“…!”

His death greatly shocked Otto’s enemies.

Alex was not just an ordinary noble.

He was a knight who had trained in swordsmanship for many years and was one of the strongest man in Roshan Kingdom.

For such an Alex to die without being able to do anything, it was not surprising that the people of Roshan were astonished.

“What… What is this…”

The Crown Prince was left dumbfounded.

But it wasn’t time to be shocked yet.

-Shhhh!

Otto’s eyes turned gray.

He had activated the skill ‘Petrification Eye’ once again.

***

The effect of ‘Petrification Eye’ was truly outstanding.

“Argh!”

“My leg… Ugh!”

“I can’t move my wrist… Gah!”

The enemies exposed to ‘Petrification Eye’ struggled as parts of their bodies turned to stone, and as a result, they had no choice but to become an excellent source of experience points for Otto.

[Notification: Experience increased!]

[Notification: Experience increased!]

[Notification: Experience increased!]

[Notification: Congratulations!]

[Notification: Level increased!]

[Notification: Reached level 91!]

The knights of Roshan Kingdom fell one by one without even putting up proper resistance.

If Otto had fought using only ‘Invincible Swordsmanship,’ he would have suffered such a humiliating defeat.

Why? Because Otto’s mastery of ‘Invincible Swordsmanship’ was still in its early stages.

However, it was a different story with Otto when he activated ‘Petrification Eye’.

To face Otto with ‘Petrification Eye’, the opponents had to have above-average magic resistance or wear special items.

If they blindly trusted in their swordsmanship and charged in without any protection, they would inevitably turn to stone, struggling helplessly until Otto swung his sword, severing their necks.

“This… This is unbelievable…”

The Crown Prince, overwhelmed by fear, unconsciously took a few steps back.

Seeing Otto slaughtering the knights with gray flashes emanating from his eyes, it invoked a sense of terror as if the Demon King of Hell had descended upon the mortal realm.

“Phew.”

Otto turned to the Crown Prince after deactivating ‘Petrification Eye’.

“Shall we have a chat?”

“H-Howl?!”

“Should I kill you as well?”

“Oh, please!”

“Why?”

“Please don’t! I’m begging you! Aaah!”

Terrified by fear, the Crown Prince screamed and fled, having lost the will to fight.

“Alright, then.”

“…?”

“I won’t chase after you.”

“W-What are you talking about?”

“You told me not to come after you, right? So I won’t.”

“Is… Is that true?”

“Why? Do you want me to chase after you?”

“N-no?!”

“It’s better if you run away quickly, isn’t it?”

“Arrgh!”

Otto didn’t actually chase after the fleeing Crown Prince.

Instead, he grabbed a mace he hadn’t used before.

(Kairos, I chose you.)

[What nonsense is this?]

(Go!)

Otto hurled the mace infused with Kairos’ soul.

[You insolent brat! How dare you…]

(Don’t you need a physical vessel.?)

[Hmm?]

(He seems useful. Isn’t he much better than those trashy s**ms in prison? He may be a prince from a remote rural kingdom, but he seems somewhat capable, doesn’t he? He’s skilled in swordsmanship, and can handle mana. Perhaps he could become a vessel for your soul.)

[Listening to you, it sounds reasonable.]

(Look, he’s running away.)

[Understood.]

Persuaded by Otto’s words, Kairos manipulated the mace and chased after the Crown Prince.

As a result…

-Thunk!

The mace struck the back of the Crown Prince’s head.

-Thump!

The Crown Prince collapsed, unconscious.

“I said I wouldn’t chase after him, but I didn’t say I would just let him go.”

He hadn’t lied.

He didn’t!
