300 Victory!
Yet I didn’t let such a thing get in my way, letting my body rise higher in the air, getting a few metres up his.
“F*ck you!” as he spotted me coming, he had nothing else to do but to wave his spear, hoping to get me hit with it.
But dude… you were spinning in the air uncontrollably like a broken kite! His spear movements looked so silly and funny to me, a futile attempt as the last struggle of a dying man.
In my eyes, he was dead. After all, he was flying in such a lousy and messy way while I was having my balance.
But who was he? A paragon! A goddamn paragon! The highest and most strongest person in the entire apocalypse, assumingly.
He also came from a race that wasn’t that weak. So even at this moment, I never lowered my guard.
“Die!” We both said it at the same time. In a flash I summoned out my deadly heavy dragon glaive, and at the same moment… the tip of his spear flashed in a bizarre dark red light.
Time seemed to grow slowly at this moment. I saw his spear emitting a dangerous pulse that exploded in an ear deafening sound.
And in a response for that timely explosion, that bastard got his body under control. It felt like he was lying on the ground, and just leant over his spear to stand up.
He was preparing to fight back! Just as his body was standing erect, all the parts in his suit flashed, opened different size holes, and flashes of light emitted from these holes at the same time.
That bastard… was he thinking himself a star or something?
*Bang!*
Yet in the face of my mighty glaive, in front of such a terrifying might, how could such a halved stat dude would dream of struggling?
The glaive was let loose the moment it appeared. Its deadly heavy weight pressured over my arms for a brief second, before finally free falling and taking a big chunk off that bastard’s suit and body.
This time I tried to better control the direction of my glaive fall, yet thanks to the last struggling move that the bastard showed, the edge of my glaive just missed his head by an inch.
Regardless, the end result was for almost one half of that suit and his body to get separated by my glaive. This time it seemed the suit wasn’t as sturdy as before.
Thanks to my earlier attack plus the continuous attacks of my grenades, the defensive abilities of that suit seemed to be depleted. I looked at the remaining half of that bastard while gushing out copious amounts of golden red blood from it like a fountain.
“It’s your lost pal,” I slowly said while the next instant the chariot was called here. I landed over its deck in grace and easiness, while that bastard just got slammed away from my big girl’s body.
I slowly walked to the side of my chariot, overlooking the about to die enemy of mine. This battle… It started off wrong but I managed to challenge and crush all the odds and gain victory.
At this simple moment, I felt truly invincible. Paragons? Humph! Against such meticulous planning and good preparations, they amounted to nothing in the end.
“You… Won’t… Get… To… Enjoy… This… Win… Of… Yours…” he was speaking while gushing a large amount of blood from his mouth. His voice was weak, stuttering it word by word. Yet I perfectly heard him.
That bastard… he seemed to not realise the deep sh*t he was in! Dude… did you take Anubis god for a joke or something? ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀꪶ
You got cursed, and that didn’t just stop at you. It would extend to all your forces. You weren’t just a simple person, you were a paragon!
As grand the peak one was standing on its top was, as big his fall would be. Our little battle here didn’t stop here, pal, but would also extend and show its effects over all your forces in my world.
“Humph! Just blame yourself for selecting my world to come and invade,” I didn’t tell him any of that. Instead it would feel much better to let him feel these facts later on by himself.
I just regretted not seeing his face when he’d realise how deep his abyss was. But what I cared about was my gains. I won this fight, and now I gained lots from it.
He didn’t have anything else to do to stop his demise. After cursing and throwing many threats towards me in a stuttering way, he finally gasped his last breath and died.
This battle… It was something that I’d never forget. After all this wasn’t just a mere battle to determine who would win the fight over my precious two cities.
It was a battle against a paragon! A lesson that taught me that even paragons could be attacked, defeated, and killed.
And with his death, my challenge here came to an end.
[Congratulations! It took you two hours and forty-three minutes to complete this challenge]
[You killed the Hector race paragon, a mighty being from a prestigious race]
[You gained two favour points from the system higher ups]
[You got half of his inventory randomly selected by the system]
[You gained total control over the final version of the shield]

[Your name is now spread across any world that has any human race and their allies]
[Your figure will be known universe wide for a brief moment of time]
[Be proud of such achievement, human race Hye]
I looked up at all these messages. I was proud, indeed I was! Such a feat was even recognised by the system itself. How big was this win actually?
My name was spread all over the universe. Was it a bad or a good thing? I couldn’t tell for sure for now. Just as the rows of messages ended, a portal flashed and enveloped me and my big chariot at the same time.
I took my farewell look at this world before the scenery changed and I found myself back again at my original place. I was still standing in front of the ancient looking group of buildings at MIT campus.
But the next message made me smile, grin out of excitement and joy.
