Guild Wars

Draco eyes were half lidded and his expression was filled with a sneer of confidence. He did not even look at Tomodachi and simply calculated his gains for his 'hardwork' so far.

He had gained 2,950 Trial Score for the Easy Mode, 4,000 Trial Score for Moderate Mode, 5,000 Trial Score for Hard Mode, ,5000 Trial Score for Hell Mode, 5,000 Trial Score for Nightmare Mode and finally 5,000 for Impossible Mode.

Looking at the numbers it became fairly obvious that 5,000 was the highest Trial Score one could earn on the first level and Draco had maxed it out after Hard Mode.

Fortunately, his 'hard' work wasn't in vain. Draco had also received a multiplier boost as a reward from the level provisions from the Impossible Mode.

That was 5,000 x 500%, for a grand total of 25,000!

Overall, this made his Trial Score gain after this clean sweep was 46,950!

Jesus!

My Brother in Christ, during his last run, he had gained less than half of that amount, yet that had been enough to let him go from a Basic Law True God to Master Law True God in True Destruction. Not only that, he had been able to increase some other Laws by more than a few grades!

1 Trial Score could be redeemed for 100 Divine Essence, which meant that he could currently redeem 4.6 million Divine Essence! That was, at least, four Master Laws straight from the Basic Level!

However, looking at the 100,000,000 gap needed to reach True Law from Master Law, his happiness deflated and his expression became ugly.

'Hmph, System if you continue to be this greedy, be careful you don't choke on it!'

As for his Divine Essence gains, he had received 2,950 from the Easy Mode, 8,000 from Moderate Mode, 15,000 from Hard Mode, 20,000 from Hell Mode, 25,000 from Nightmare Mode and finally 30,000 for Impossible mode.

Every stage past the Easy Mode gave out a multiplier. In other words, his actual gains were 8,000 x 400%, 15,000 x 500%, 20,000 x 500%, 25,000 x 500% and 30,000 x 500%, for a grand total of 484,950!

Split between the three, that was 161,650 Divine Essence each. For Draco, that increased his current total of 2,541,000 to 2,702,650.

Sighhh…

"Take me to the second level." Draco commanded with a casual wave of his hand.

Tomodachi shone a beam on Draco that warped him from the lobby to another small world. This was no longer a meadow but a large forest clearing in the midst of a large tropical forest.

Just as Draco looked around, the level details came up.

｢The Second Level (Easy Mode) – Origin Quest

Description: You have undertaken the Easy Mode difficulty of the Divine Trial's Second Level, Noble God. Prove yourself worthy. Defeat your allotted foe within the time frame and according to the limitations placed on you.

Limitations: None.

Draco stood in the clearing with his arms folded and glanced at his target who was snorting angrily as they walked over from the darkness.

｢Name: Borax – True God

Level: Law of Berserk Charge (Basic)

Divine Energy: 100%/100%.｣

There were two of these fellows now, unlike the first level which was helmed by just a single Kuiper in the Easy Mode. It was clear that not just the individual stages, but the entire Divine Trial increased the difficulty with each level.

However, for Draco, it was a matter of farts and clouds.

Pew! Pew!

The boars died before they could even scratch the ground and prepare to run forward.

Draco returned to the lobby and sat down comfortably. He pondered over the current battle and assessed that he should probably focus on being faster rather than posturing. After all, he could posture endlessly when he came out.

Well, here we go, floor clearing montage… BEGIN!

WAIT!

First, the leaderboards of course.

Hoh? Now there were four piggies.

Damn, did that mean that Hard Mode would have 6, Hell Mode 8, Nightmare Mode 10 and Impossible 12?

What about the Third Level? Would there be 3 enemies on the Easy Mode, 6 on Moderate, 9 on Hard, 12 on Hell, 15 on Nightmare and 18 on Impossible?

…

Gawt Damn!

Anyway, Draco Mind Blasted the boars with the Master Law of True Destruction, which wiped out their consciousness right away, so there was no need for Sinister Shot.

As Draco had surmised, the maximum for the second level in terms of score had been increased 6000. Now, he was entirely sure that the Tower of Babylon was a replica of the Divine Trial.

An idea flashed in Draco's mind. Why doesn't he open the Tower of Babylon to the entire playerbase and then realign the floors to have challenges that would test the players skills similar to this trial and then hand out rewards?

Like that, he could have a way to dump all the riches and good stuff he had to the playerbase in a sensible way while strengthening them as they were destined to be his future subordinates whether they liked it or not.

Draco put the idea side for when he exited the trial.

Tsk, tsk, not bad wifey. Draco laughed to himself as he glanced at Gabriel's name. He had already claimed the Angel Queen as his own property and knew that she could not resist her own soul's pull.

However, he was not in a rush to press her down. He had learned from his confusion with Zaine, Hikari and Roma that it was best to build a genuine rapport with her before going to the end.

Anyway, next floor please!

Tsk, tsk, Draco had to admit this here and now: he loved violating innocent little piggies who could not fight back.

Why yes, Draco had worked in ISIS before, how did you know?

Tsk, Draco had hoped that RETARD Sunna would be kicked from the rankings, but like a crazy bitch, she held on for dear life while screeching with maddened laughter.

He could only wash this bitter taste from his mouth by taking it out on the innocent boars!

Draco came back and had to rub his temples. His eyes had become yellow at some point like some edgelord darkside user, but everyone knew that Draco was the paragon of the light side!

Ah yes, the typical floor where skills are banned. However, have you tasted subjective magic before dear side/madam?

Well, these 10 boars sure got the free sample, though Draco was unsure if they liked it since they were roasted into bacon.

Draco was about to chew into a piece of the bacon when he was suddenly dragged back to the lobby. As such, his loud and wide chomp came crashing down on nothing, causing his teeth to shatter like ceramic.

Draco could only helplessly turn to the camera and reveal a wry smile.

…

Draco began to feel a hint of dread. In his mind, the 10 of them were climbing a mountain and he was indisputably in the lead while Gabriel was steadily second and Poseidon was third.

However, the three of them could only look down with pale faces as they saw a bloodied female form with bulging eyes laughing maniacally as she climbed rapidly like a monkey towards them.
