Chapter 17: Aya Kitashima
The five teams split up and battled each of the trolls as I watched over them to make sure nothing bad happens.
Aside from helping out every now and then, everyone was totally safe and successfully killed the trolls. Ryza rose to Level 11 while some lingered to level 7-9.
After seeing the trolls disappear, I frowned.
...Was I really overestimating the wave?
Well...this is the first wave after all...maybe I’m really thinking too much in this.
Even so, I didn’t let down my guard.
When breakfast time came, I finally let the people evacuated in the store to go out and celebrate.
Time flew by with nothing major happening.
After lunch, I sighed and ordered some people to check the internet for some information regarding the waves in other areas of the world.
As I read the reports, I finally understood why the wave was so easy...it’s just like Christine said. It’s because of me.
The most powerful human in the world right now…
As for why I said that, it’s because the internet’s been buzzing about how hard the monster wave was. Thousands more people died just this morning in other parts of the globe.
Even our country, [Philippines], was also a victim to this. Of course, I didn’t mean on our base, but rather, on the other cities of the country where the people aren’t protected.
Hundreds of millions had died already when the apocalypse started, but with this first wave of the monsters, hundreds of thousands more had perished.
The population of the world thinned down again.
Talks about people starting to suggest that everyone should gather and build an independent nation had started.
People had been calling out to the top rankers to come and rescue them.
Seeing this, I gritted my teeth but didn’t act on impulse.

Even if I wanted to help them, I simply can’t.
Our distances are simply too far away. It’s impossible to be able to reach their location on time.
In the end, I can only sigh and hope for the best.
The day passed by peacefully just like that.
And then...midnight arrived.
I was sleeping peacefully with Ryza when a window appeared in my dreams.
Congratulations for passing the first wave!
You shall now receive a reward according to your ranking!
Your current rank as of now is: #2!
You have been rewarded: [Hermes’ Boots] x1! All stats + 5! [Great Life Pellet] x1! G Points +10 000!
....WHAT!?
Seeing that window, I snapped my eyes wide open!
Looking at the side, I can see Ryza also open her eyes in shock.
So that window really is real…
Wait...then that means...I’m rank 2!?
Thinking this, I hurriedly opened the [Leaderboard] window.

So it’s true...damn! I didn’t notice I’ve already been overtaken by Aya! But there was a big difference from our levels before! To think that she would reach me that fast…
Not to mention, it seems I’m the only one whose level didn’t increase...hm? The top 4 from before was replaced?
Hm...if I’m not wrong, the top 4 before was...Anton Johansson? Was it? Let’s see here…
...He’s no longer in the leaderboards...which means...he died?
Matfey replaced him and another one rose to the top 5. Zyra Marquez…
After checking the [Leaderboards] for a while, I sighed and accepted that I dropped to top 2.
Well, I guess that’s what happens when you let other people kill the monsters instead...but I’m curious, how did this Ana level up so much with just those low level monsters?

Tsk, to think there’s an even bigger cheat character than me…
“Don’t worry about it. We’ll get her next time.” (Ryza)
Ryza knew what I was thinking so she patted my back to console me.
Looking at Ryza’s cold yet warm gaze, it was impossible for me to sleep again.
Ryza understood my gaze and smiled as she opened her arms to welcome me.

Japan.
On the black night sky, a full moon hung along with the stars.
Beneath the beautiful night, figures could be seen standing in formation.
These figures looked incredible horrid and inhuman...no...to begin with, they weren’t human.
They were monsters.
If Will were to see this, he would be shocked to the point where his jaw would reach the ground.
After all, the monster army currently gathered here is totally different from the amount Will had seen in the monster wave.
Not to mention, the monsters didn’t just include goblins or orcs or kobolds of wolves. The monster army contained a huge variety of races.
Trolls, Giants, Cyclops, Wraiths...even Dragons.
But what’s even more shocking, is that all of these monsters are quietly standing in formation facing a podium.
On that podium, a figure could be seen with her back turned towards the monster army.
On the figure’s head was a golden crown.
The figure wore a red dress which displayed her curvaceous body line, unbefitting a person who has been in numerous battle. But upon closer look, the dress wasn’t originally red.
It was white. The dress became red from the blood of numerous enemies. It gave off that kind of feeling.
The woman stood there quietly as she focused her attention on her phone, reading about the latest events happening in the world.
However, she didn’t bother to look at all the other information. What she only focused on was one person.
[William King].
From the gossips and rumors on the internet, she found out the reason why William King’s level didn’t level up at all.
It was because he only killed one troll and let his subordinates deal with the rest, causing him to be left out and got overtaken by a rank.
The woman smiled and looked at the picture one of the people in William’s base took and posted on the internet.
She looked at that man wearing a crown and a cape.
“A kind King...” (???)
She looked at him for a while before looking up at the full moon above and touch the crown on her head.
“I wonder...if this means something?” (???)
Then, she sighed and shook her head.
“No...while he is the King of the Humans...” (???)
She looked at the monster army behind her back and spoke.
“...I am the Queen of the monsters.” (???)
To woman smiled and her face was revealed under the moonlight.
It was none other than the current top ranker of the world.
Aya Kitashima.

Thief of Time
[Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Book 1: The Legend of Tot Synopsis: Claud Primus, a self-declared master thief, has a simple goal. To live forever. It's a rather easy task, for miraculous objects called lifestones are able to extend one's lifespan. These lifestones are best found in the treasuries of nobles, lovely resorts that Claud pays a visit to every so often. Unfortunately, one of those nightly visits go awry, and Claud is forced to escape with just a single lifestone and a box in hand. Normally, that's when things die down. The guards yawn, the gates close, and the night continues. But this time, the night isn't that forgiving. A dozen schemes result in the murder of someone important, and with a convenient scapegoat — Claud — at hand, it doesn't take long for him to be framed as a heinous criminal, wanted for the indirect murder of someone high up...and it just gets worse from there. Book 2: The Moon Lords' Rise Synopsis: As ordered chaos sweeps across Licencia, Claud leaves for Julan Barony, intent on making some profits there. Accompanied by the erstwhile heiress of Julan, a fellow member of the Moon Lords, the two plot against the barony's wealth...as well as a promise to bring about its downfall. Meanwhile, back home, the Moon Lords have busied themselves with digesting their gains. Eyes, however, are beginning to turn to this proverbial fish in a small pond. The fishermen are coming. When they cast their hook, what will Dia and the others do? Book 3: Murders under the Moons Synopsis: In the sleepy town of Nachtville, where Claud and Lily are forced to stop at, a set of nasty murders occurs. Victims scream out in fright, before a spear falls from the sky to end their suffering. Cowed and cautious, the master thief and his partner slink in the shadows, their objective that of home... A new task, however, has fallen on Dia. With a trusty helper at her side, she has to set off towards Nachtville itself, to solve the mystery Claud had abandoned. Faced with an enemy whose sole skillset is geared towards killing, how will they succeed? And what dark secrets will they find? Book 4: In the Dark of the Moons Synopsis: The year has ended. The four months of the full moons will soon be followed by two months of the new moons. Duke Istrel's ascension is around the corner. Amidst this political upheaval, Count Nightfall, Licencia's strongest defender, has been called away. The Moon Lords' largest task yet — to protect Licencia in the absence of its ruler — has begun. And yet, trouble is unrelenting. A distinguished personage, one that Claud fears, has been found dead in the county, his brains dug out and his body disemboweled. The inquisitors of the White Church have been dispatched to investigate and apprehend the murderer...as well as the person behind this puppet. Tormented by a call to fight, Claud directs his eyes out of the city, looking for the puppetmaster. Skulking in the shadows, the master thief will soon confront his greatest foe yet. A foe just like him. Book 5: Moonlit Tides and Darkened Seas Synopsis: A new era has begun. For the privileged, the sands of time dribble away for every passing moment, counting down to the arrival of a entity of mythical proportions. The night now harbours shadows and fog, and operatives of the Moons and the Dark clash in shadow. Claud, as usual, is investigating a spate of nasty disappearances in the city, but little does he know what these disappearances truly mean. And yet, a tide is coming. When it finally breaks, what will he do? Book 6: Secrets in Shadow Synopsis: The person behind a strike that would enter the annals of history flees his home, bringing with him the person closest to his heart into a new land and into a new world. Having left Istrel for the first time in his life, the two of them attempt to settle down in foreign lands, only to be caught in the middle of hostilities between two mighty powers grappling for dominion. Yet, none of that has anything to do with him. Following his desires, Claud eventually makes his way to the fabled Celestia Ruins, a fragment of another world. Bearing witness to truths he cannot yet comprehend, he returns from his exploration, a small break away from the machinations of destiny. One thing, however, is for certain. Destiny will not wait for him. Book 7: Reddest Rage Synopsis: Destiny churns on, heedless of mortal machinations, and Claud watches as the battlegrounds between the Moons and the Dark are drawn up. With the forces of the great Dark occupying Lostfon, Claud comes to a startling realisation — that he may have very well be a murderer of heinous proportions. Grappling with that realisation, he struggles to prepare for his Second Tutorial... Back in Istrel, Dia finds herself confronted with a perennial truth. Even in a time of writhing destiny, the machinations between nobles never cease to end — and unfortunately for her, the group once known as the Moon Lords are forced into dealing with a petty squabble between two counts. What they didn't account for, however, was the startling discovery they would soon make... And the shadow of the Red God's Holy Son behind it all. Book 8: Darkness Descends Synopsis: Nightmares haunt the horizon as Claud sinks and awakens from a seeming dream. What was once illusory begins to play out before him, in a way he cannot imagine. Dia, forced to wield arms, begins and ends a battle that opens her eyes to the vast dangers that lurk in this sundered world. Under the banner of humanity and divinity, she beholds the silent, forgotten protectors of Orb...but there is no forgetting the battle between the divinities. The Dark descends, the Moons writhe, and the horns of war blow once more. But this is not their battle. Not yet. Book 9: Moons Muster Synopsis: As more and more events fall into place, Claud finds himself desperate. Not for himself, but for the person who has turned into his world. Armed with the knowledge of a certain future, he approaches the only person that could possibly help him in his time of need, trading information for a promise of help. With that as solace, he returns to the grim task of understanding and seeking, revisiting an ancient, shattered fragment of another world...unleashing changes that he never knew was possible. Back in Istrel, Dia and the others must now navigate around a familiar spirit, who seeks to investigate the death of his master's Bearer. With them as prime suspects, the Seekers of Life must move carefully...but the Coloured Gods are not the only divinities eyeing them closely. The Moons, bristling from repeated defeats, are looking for new recruits, and the Seekers of Life are prime cannon fodder. Above all, destiny marches on, the unfeeling clock a warning to all. The Trial of Aeons will soon arrive. Book 10: Destiny Divine Synopsis: ??? Release frequency: one every few days or something, I guess. (This work is also being serialised on Webnovel under the name Revile as a trial run)
