Worlds' Apocalypse Online

Chapter 513: The six-realm grand tournament.

Translated by: La0o9

Proofreader:? Arya

“This clown is an insane creature unlike anything I’ve seen before” the Heavenly God muttered in a heavy tone.

The Frost Flame Wraith King said nothing and only stared intently at the burnt desert ground.

Even after a while, the intense heat still remained in the desert, warping the vision of those looking through it.

The shockwaves from the blast only lasted for a short time, and it didn’t spread too far before dissipating, but the high temperature left behind was enough to turn this place into hell on earth.

As powerful as Demis and Wraiths were, they weren’t afraid of this level of damage, but they paid attention to how it affected the world.

A few drones suddenly flew over from the sky.

The drones went in front of them and projected the screens again.

The Murder Clown showed up on those screen.

Following the 8-bit theme from before, it was playing an air-guitar.

[Jan-jajaangg~! 7 per group, sign up, people!]

[The final winner gets to fight me, and you get this world if you beat me]

[Otherwise, I’m gonna——]

The Murder Clown clapped its hands again.

The feeling of another intense impact appeared.

The ground shook again.

“Damn it, it unleashed that skill again” the Heavenly God was clearly annoyed.

The Frost Flame Wraith King said nothing and quickly headed to where the impact came from.

The Heavenly God also swung his hand, ordering the Demis to follow.

A city.

A destroyed city.

This place had already been cleaned out by the Demis and Wraiths, so there weren’t any remaining signs of life, all that was left were empty metallic structures and buildings.

When the Demis and Wraiths got here, the deed had already been done.

But they were shown clearly what the deed was by the drones.

A large mushroom cloud erupted to the sky.

The entire city was levelled in mere seconds.

The Heavenly God stood at the barrier of the city, carefully sensing it.

After a while, he spoke: “This level of power is useless against us, but it can do a lot of harm to this world”

『 In order words, this ‘Murder Clown’ is a creature that likes to destroy worlds?? 』 the Frost Flame Wraith King muses.

“I asked my human servants, they said that this thing is insane, it had done a lot of strange things, and killed a lot of people, sometimes doing them without any reason”

『 It wanted us to join some sort of fighting tournament? 』 the Frost Flame Wraith King said.

All of a sudden, the Murder Clown once again appeared on the screen.

[Correct! Student Wraith King listened to my lecture very well, you get my praise—– unfortunately you don’t accept money as a reward, otherwise I would’ve given you 300 Empire coins for your correct answer]

The Heavenly God looked at the Clown on the screen, asking in a low voice: “What exactly do you want?”

He turned back and peeked a glance.

This Demi had been preparing for a while, finally smirked and spoke: “Ready”

Right at that moment, the Demi disappeared.

He had an instantaneous movement skill, capable of moving right to where the Murder Clown was immediately!

Unfortunately, Impartial Goddess had been monitoring the entire planet.

As soon as the Demi disappeared.

The Murder Clown had also warped away.

Everyone saw that Demi appeared on the screen.

But the Murder Clown was already gone.

After a long-distance warp, the Murder Clown reappeared at another city.

The scene quickly changed to focus on the Murder Clown again.

He whistled and applauded.

[Your actions are truly heroic for going against a damned villain like myself]

[To commend your bravery, I shall make this world suffer once again]

Boom——-

Another explosion.

Another nuclear explosion happened where the Wraiths and Demis gathered.

A hemispherical flame shrouded the ground as a huge cloud of smoke mixed with dust imploded before erupting to the sky.

Large amounts of rocks and sand were blasted by the shockwaves, sending them flying outwards to structures that were yet to be destroyed, forming large craters of impact all over.

After a while.

Everything settled down.

The Wraiths and Demis could be seen once more.

The majority of them looked a bit charred, but none of them actually got hurt.

Only the weakest of the Wraiths were killed in the blast.

Such an attack wasn’t even worth paying attention to for the majority of Wraiths and Demis.

But the Heavenly God and Frost Flame Wraith King both looked very irritated.

『 Did you notice?? 』the Frost Flame Wraith King asked.

“I did. Faint radiation was scattered throughout the air, with this kind of radiation, common creatures would die in a few hours to a few weeks” the Heavenly God spoke.

『 Not only that, if that Clown keeps unleashing this kind of attack, the entire world will be contaminated and every common creature would die? 』

Following his explanation, a large screen was projected in the air.

The Murder Clown showed up again.

[Student Wraith King, you really are a bright boy]

The Clown clapped its hand while speaking with utter seriousness: [But I won’t be unleashing nuclear attacks one after another, you have to trust me on this]

The Murder Clown glanced around a little bit before putting a finger in front of its mouth, whispering: [I’ll tell you a little secret. I actually prefer to unleash a few ten thousand times of these at once, destroying the world in one go]

『 No! You mad man, what exactly are you thinking!?? 』the Frost Flame Wraith King furiously shouted.

The Heavenly God also spoke to the screen: “You damn villain, if you dare to continue destroying this world, I swear I will tear you to pieces!”

——if the human realm really does get destroyed, then all their efforts up to now would have been for nothing.

A world filled with this harmful and useless energy wasn’t worth fusing with their worlds.

Instead, after fusing it would actually cause the environment of the Heaven realm or Wraith realm to become irreversibly worse!

On the screen, the Clown pulled out two puffs of cotton from the ears of its helmet and threw it behind itself.

It shrugged: [I can’t hear what you said]

『 Bullshit!!!? 』the Frost Flame Wraith King roared.

The chilling flames around it suddenly erupted.

Within a mere 0.01 seconds, Impartial Goddess noticed this change.

She quickly made the decision.

In a flash, the Murder Clown disappeared from the screen.

Three seconds later, the Frost Flame Wraith King reappeared where the Clown originally was.

Overwhelming burning flames of frost gathered around him.

He had concentrated its power, wanting to strike the Clown with an explosive attack.

Unfortunately, he missed.

The Murder Clown disappeared in the blink of an eye.

The Wraith King was the most powerful Wraith, capable of facing off against the Heavenly God without losing.

But even the Wraith King couldn’t catch the Clown!

Where the Wraith King stood, a new drone hovered, projecting another screen.

Seeing that, the Heavenly God felt heavy.

The Clown can destroy the world at any time.

But no one could catch it.

How do we break this situation?

The Murder Clown once again showed up on-screen, applauding the Frost Flame Wraith King: [What a brave challenger, to your warm welcome, I’ve decided to turn your half-built Wraith fortress into rubble]

『 Nooo!? 』 the Frost Flame Wraith King roared desperately.

As if unable to hear that, the Murder Clown was just performing a graceful ballet on the other side before it turned to face the camera and clapped its hands.

[I’m sorry, student Wraith King, a fired arrow can’t turn back]

Boom—-

The earth shook again.

Intense shockwaves resounded through the air.

The screen turned completely blank, but panicked and scared screams could be heard nonstop.

This explosion was much more intense than the previous ones.

With the tiny changes in the air flow, any of the powerful Combatants here could tell where the explosion happened.

The Wraith fortress.

The Wraith King’s new base which was only just halfway in its construction.

After a while.

The screen quickly showed the aftermath.

The Wraith fortress that was just starting to be built had disappeared completely from the horizon.

The ground was in shambles.

The Wraith King stared blankly at the screen, standing completely still.

The Wraith fortress was the new base it took so long to establish, having only just finished the foundations.

But it was gone.

The Wraith King clenched his fists tight.

“Don’t be triggered, or you’ll be doing exactly what it wants” the Heavenly God’s voice came from the side.

He stood next to the Wraith King with a cautious expression.

In a single day, it managed to unleash such a large-ranged attack several times in a row, and the attack even carried a characteristic of doing long-term damage to the world. historical

Is this the Clown’s ability?

The Heavenly God calmly asked: “Murder Clown, what exactly do you want?”

[Hah, that’s a good question]

The Murder Clown threw the cup of ice cream in its hand away, wiping the metal mouth decoration of its helmet with a handkerchief.

[I want to play a game]

Following the Clown’s voice, the 8-bit theme song began playing again.

The time of the first round;

The time of the quarter-final;

The time of the grand final;

The 18 stages;

The 21 rules of the tournament;

Tournament dress code;

—–and an electronic invitation.

These things showed up on-screen one by one.

[Winning against me is the only way you’re going to get this world intact]

[And I’m the game’s final boss, if you want to fight me, you’ll have to become the King of Fighters champion]

[Otherwise, I’m going to destroy the world]

[Ahahahaha, what fun~]

The Clown disappeared with a frenzied laugh.

The entire world fell into long silence.

The Heavenly God was staring at the final rule.

[You must defeat all other competitors to obtain this world]

He clenched his fists, muttering: “This world…”

The humans of this world didn’t have the power to defeat Demis.

The only worry were the Wraiths, Asura and Beast Kings.

They also wanted to obtain this world.

The Heavenly God’s thoughts slowly became clear.

Very well, I’ll use this chance to eliminate all the threats

Then I just need to beat the Murder Clown and I’ll obtain this world.

He didn’t say these words out loud, because the Frost Flame Wraith King was still standing next to him.

『 Seems like there isn’t any other way. To obtain this world, I can only follow the Clown’s rules for now? 』the Frost Flame Wraith King sighed.

——actually, this is a good thing, this world’s humanity had already been seen through.

If I can use this chance to thoroughly make this world mine, it’ll be much better than the alternatives, the Frost Flame Wraith King also silently said to himself.

He brought his Wraith subordinate and left without turning back.

The Heavenly God didn’t bother to notice the Wraiths’ movements.

He was already thinking.

——-thinking about the combinations and coordination for his Demis.

The tournament rules dictate that 7 members form a group, two groups will fight each other with the winner being able to proceed.

Appropriate coordination and member composition will allow them to put less effort for better results.

Making the most out of every Demi’s abilities was something the Heavenly God must worry about.

From this moment onwards, the Demis and Wraiths both entered a state of preparation for the King of Fighters tournament.

The news spread like wildfire.

Even the Asura and Beast Kings that have been lying in wait couldn’t afford to do so anymore.

They also began to construct their respective teams.

This little fighting game that the Murder Clown came up with, from a certain point of view, actually fit perfectly with every faction’s intentions.

——the strongest wins it all.

Deciding the ownership of the world through a contest of strength, this law of the jungle was accepted by every single world.

At the same time, this prevented the need for a large-scale war, which could result in total extinction of the losing species.

And there was no going back on the results.

If any side angered the Clown, it might just unleash that kind of attack again, making this world completely undesirable.

Besides that, the Combatants who take part in the tournament will definitely not let the other side leave the ring alive.

Everyone was cautious of the enemy’s possible counter attacks.

This was going to be a tough battle.

This was a grand tournament between the six realms to decide the fate of the world.
