《The Uncrowned King(LITRPG)》Ch 07- The Fallen King

***Aristle's POV***
I stared at the level 3 hunter going at it, he was elegantly dodging between the strikes of the brute orcs, at first I was hesitating, thinking that maybe this was a little too much for the young initiate, but I guess I was wrong, the way in which he calmly and accurately walks away from any sign of danger was amazing, it seemed like I was looking at a machine.
'This level of experience could not be achieved in mere days, according to the system notification, the initiates arrived at the island just two days ago, there is no way in hell a genius of this magnitude appeared among them this soon... Even if he already has a blessing from some God, it should take him months if not years to get a proper handle on how to perfectly use its powers...'
Another Orc was decapitated as he arced behind another one with simple footsteps, 'The only possibility I can think of is he's the heir of some Level 4-5 superpower that was given access to the integration to gain rewards.'
I bit my lip as I looked at him to finish off the last orc before picking up some coins, "You done?" I levelled my voice neutral without giving him any chance to read my mind.
'If he's from a level 4 powerhouse then helping him would definitely help me in the future, plus no matter what he would never let it slip that he's not an Initiate belonging to Planet ZX-458'
"Come on we need to talk-" I walked towards the next orc group that I could sense and then continued, "Do you know why the integration takes place?"
I looked at his slightly handsome face as it was etched with confusion, "Yes so that we could enter the tower and gain a chance for our species to survive."

'Heh, he's good...'
I shook my head and explained, "That's just a lie, well maybe not a lie but a half-truth, you have been blessed by a God right? Why would he/she do that? As you see there is no reason to give you any powerups cause you couldn't provide anything in return..."
"Umm..." He tried as his face was set in a frown.
"The System integrates new galaxies every 100 years, new species and characters are added under its control, fighting for the resources and stealing from one another, the tower as you said is the most basic survival test that there is, all the species that can reach the 100th floor gain access to the vast technologies of the universe and are initiated and granted level-1 technology."
"Level 1 technology?" There was a genuine confused expression on Ryan's face.
'Damn these level 5 superpowers are different huh!'
"Exactly, Intergalactic spaceships, gene evolving solutions, plus your whole species gain access to the system, after that the main fight starts, and if for example, your species manages to defeat all the representatives of the different species throughout the tower climbing to the 1000th floor, you will earn the right to own your galaxy and thus be promoted to a Level 3 superpower." I looked at the Orc group ahead and said, "Continue fighting I'll continue explaining..."
'Maybe he'll let something slip if he's focused on fighting.'
"To reach a Level 3 superpower is a difficult task for a level 2 superpower so that's why integration is soo important, each level 3 superpower is subordinate to one level 5 or 6 superpower's member and that superpower is chosen by who is the greatest warrior among the level 3 superpower. The God that blessed the chosen is given right to manage the newly minted superpower, so that was why a god took interest in you."

"So what do I need to do?" Ryan asked.
"What you need to do is level up because if you aren't strong enough then you can't help this pathetic king win against the other 3 rulers. Although the war hasn't started yet it soon would and I don't think the ruined emperor could help you, which would decrease your chances of gaining the rewards given by the system at the end of the tutorial."
"But how can I gain the rewards even if I get strong, our faction's guards and mercenaries are under levelled, and no matter how much I try I don't think I could do anything against them?"
"You just keep killing the orcs I'll handle the rest, what level are you?"
"Almost level 12"
"Hmm then we need to switch places, the orcs won't give you much EXP now..."
...
***Ryan's POV***
'The orcs aren't enough?'
I used the All-Seeing gaze on the Orc.
Lv 21-Orc (F)
HP = 3400/4300
MP= 1000/1200
Main Attributes- Strength, Endurance
As I dodged backwards to avoid another one of its brutal strikes I looked for a way to jam my dagger through his weak point.
"Stop wasting time with that thing, we need to go back so you can accept a class, that would improve your efficiency and then we can grind faster, remember you need to reach level 25 as soon as possible to get started on your evolution, the faster you reach E-grade the better. You shouldn't waste any stat point if you could help it."
I couldn't help but reminisce about how I desperately struggled to reach E-grade at level 54, those 100's of lost stat points would always haunt me as the difference between me and the elites were clearly visible because of them.
'Even then I only managed to complete my Grade-up quest because of the eye of Muninn...'
I backed away as I felt Aristle's hand clamp on my shoulder and then a feeling of weightlessness took over me.
'I wonder what class I'll get this time!'

8 121Remorse
I have killed many people over my long life. Men, women, children. None have escaped the shadows that I control. It was only one tiny mistake that I made that changed my life forever. I underestimated her, and I would pay for my hubris. “For every death you have given, you will feel their pain.” What? “For every person you have killed, you will feel regret.” Wait, wait… “For every murder you have commited, you will know what you have done.” I don’t think this is going to be pretty. The power leaves her voice as she continues in a softer tone. “I will give you back what you have lost, you will feel empathy again.” Her power releases me and I fall to the ground. Diana. That was her name. I will remember it. ******** This story starts out somewhat dark, but it will lighten up after the first chapter. I tend to not enjoy the psychological tag too much since stories with the tag tend to be a little insane for my liking, but I feel that I would be remiss not putting it on this story, since a lot of it is about the psychology of the main character. All the content warnings are checked since I want to leave my options open to me for the future. I hope you enjoy.
