Chapter 491 Unexpected Calamity

"G-Glitch Skill?"

Rey's brows furled up as he stared at Esme, obviously confused by what she was asking. "What's that? A Skill that causes Glitches?"

Perhaps she meant that the Skill's name was Glitch. The answer to that was no, obviously.

"No! Like, the Skill itself is glitching. Something like showing random letters, numbers or symbols." She responded. "Did it have something like that?"

"H-huh...?" Rey didn't know what Esme was talking about.

This was the first time he was hearing of Skills like that.

Did such Skills even exist on H'Trae?

"So you didn't see it, huh? That's odd... you even look confused about what I'm saying."

Esme's response only plunged Rey into more confusion.

"Hold up. What are you sayi—?"

"I mean, I thought you would at least know of it, even if you didn't know of its existence... right?" She mumbled, mostly to herself, now pacing around the room.

"I'm not following..."

"I've only ever seen the glitch once too. And I used it as an explanation for you doing all those things you did, having such unbelievable powers despite not having too many Skills on your Status Window."

At this point, Rey grew impatient and grabbed Esme by both hands, stopping her pacing.

"What exactly are you saying here?" He stared into her eyes, pausing to look at the confused expression on her face.

"You have a glitch Skill, Rey. So I thought that if the Skeletal Dragon had one too, it would explain why it was able to resist your power."

"Eh? Really?"

This was news to Rey. He had checked his Status Window more times than he could remember, but he saw no signs of a glitch Skill.

"Yes! It's—!"

"GAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!"

Rey suddenly screamed, his body trembling violently as he took several steps away from Esme.

His body felt like he was on fire, and his brain felt like it would explode at any moment. This sudden sensation overwhelmed his senses.

It consumed him from the inside out, causing his whole body to shake immensely.

"UWAAAAAHHHHHH! GUAGHHHHHH!!!"

As if his body was being split in two, he could feel every ligament of his body straining, and every portion of senses being fried.

This felt like the most gruesome death ever—being destroyed, yet perfectly fine. It truly felt like he was dying. But no... this was a fate worse.

The overwhelming sensation, raw and pervasive, felt perpetual in its infliction.

However, even that didn't mean it was less durable and powerful. The only thing it was really restricted to was its use of Skills and optimal power.

The fact that the Duplicate was killed meant the culprit had enough power to deplete all of Rey's durability.

There were only two likely culprits behind this, and Rey was equally frightened for both outcomes.

'N-no... I have to... h-help them...!'

Whether it was Adrien or the Dragons, no one in the Capital stood a chance.

No one but him.

"... Please."

Rey fell into indefinite slumber, collapsed entirely in the crying Esme's arms... all alone in the Grand Calamity Class Dungeon.

***********

No one could have predicted this; the fact that the true calamity was not within the ancient walls of the Dungeon that they conquered.

Instead, it happened in a bustling city—filled with life, and people.

The Capital, known as a haven from Dragons, thanks to being situated South, far from the rigors of war, was now in flames.

Several buildings had crumbled under the heat, and many more crashed to the ground, sending debris flying around.

So far, over ten thousand had met their end in this catastrophe, and that number only rose as time passed.

However, other than the natives who could do nothing but cry and run for their lives, the numbers of the saviors who faced this threat had already been cut short.

Of the twelve brave champions that faced the catastrophe, their current state was thus;

Three were already dead.

Nine were severely injured.

All would soon perish.

Thanks for reading!

Now it's time for the calamity to truly begin.

Also, I apologize if you've been experiencing a sharp drop in quality this past couple of chapters.

I'm actually sick... haha!
