《The Egotistical Ruler [DROPPED]》Chapter 4: Siege
Advertisement
Guess what? ACTION CHAPTER, that's what. Took 1 week, 8 posts, 4 remasters, and lots of caffiene but here's your action you've been waiting for.
Each stat reduced by 1 due to fear
-F*ck
Emperor at the time was more angered by the stat decreases than in fear of the wolf that roared. The villagers readied their weapons but were shivering in fear as more wolves appeared behind the roaring one.
'It's just a few wolves, very realistic but I expected more.'
Emperor falsely believed the wolves were weak and a beginner mob due to his previous gaming experiences. He charged at the enemies recklessy(more like leaned forward and used the weight of the armour to build up momentum). The wolf expecting its prey to be cowering in fear was taken by surprise.
Critical hit, Skill gained: Bull charge
He and the wolf fell to the ground but the damage didn't kill the wolf. The other wolves got aggroed and started attacking him while the wolf under him started ferociously biting him. The wolves attacking him sometimes cut their mouths open on the parts of metal jutting out of his armour awkwardly. Emperor couldn't do anything but struggle under their weight which restricted his movement.
The villagers taking advantage of this opportunity began to cut down the wolves until all except the one under Emperor died. Emperor when freed of movement began rolling around with the wolf, punching it and trying to get a grip on it. He aimed to snap its neck to kill it quickly but couldn't. The villagers wanted to kill the wolf but didn't want to hurt Emperor, but the 3 kids were used to hitting Emperor...
Keith used his shovel to try and bludgeon the wolf but missed and hit Emperor on the head.
Kyle tried hitting the wolf by throwing a piece of scrap metal and hit the wolf's calf and Emperor's leg.

Katy struck true with her stick knocking the wolf off Emperor.
Emperor lifted himself up while one of the villagers finished the wolf off.
Level upX5
'That sucks, I was hoping to look cool but that skill is useful and I got 7 endurance points from that.I even leveled up 5 times despite not killing anything. At least it's over without any losses.'
*Wolves bark in the distance*
The Overseer reappeared with a few soldiers and shouted "Watch out that was just the beginning! There's more coming."
'F*cking jinxed myself'
More wolves started to appear from the hole in the wall. There's more than before but now there's reinforcements for the villagers. Once again the wolf in the front roars causing debuffs.
-Bull Charge activate
Emperor decided to do the same as before since the armour nullified most of the wolves damage and he still had 60% of his health. Yes wolves do more damage than sticks, a lot more. His reckless charge was avoided by the roaring wolf since these wolves were more on guard because their allies all died. Emperor was unable to stop and went outside the walls. Luckily for him there was still a few stragglers outside the wall and he hit one.
Bull Charge successful
Emperor instinctively threw his head up as he hit the wolf. The wolf was launched into the air and instantly killed.
Level up
'Sweet it's like I'm a real bull'
As Emperor thought that one of the stragglers jumped on him from behind pushing him down. The other stragglers hopped on too and a few that were aggro-ed by his charge ran back outside the walls to attack him.
'Not again'
~5 minutes later~
Emperor was put into a critical state by the wolves and couldn't do anything about it. but there was some perks to this situation as he gained 3 endurance stat and a completely new stat.

New stat acquired: Courage
'Well can't really do anything under these wolves but skim some windows'
-Open skill Bull Charge and stat Courage
Skill: Bull Charge
Rarity: One of a Kind
Level: 1
One of a Kind skill created by an unusual action and armour set. Special action available due to it's uniqueness. Recklessly charge at the enemy with the momentum from the weight of your body. Increasing weight and agility will increase the power of the skill but make it harder to control. Will not stop until you trip or hit something. Strength decreases chance of tripping and critical chance. Tripping will cause 1/4 of your health to be depleted regardless of level, surface, or defence. Damage may be increased by head decorations such as horns.
Special action: Sometimes when you hit a target you'll automatically lift your head launching it into the air and causing double critical damage. Damage may increase depending on how high the target is launched and what it hits when airborne. Damage determined by strength.
'So I was able to kill that wolf because of my crown'
Stat: Courage
Rarity: Common
Stat points: 10
Very common stat among warrior types, usually gained by being reckless or by being brave. Increases respect from military factions and personnel. Proudly facing unbeatable odds or foolishly running into the middle of hordes of enemies. Some call them fools, others heros, while we call them masochists.
'I guess I'll face my first death now.'
-Close windows
Level upX3
To his shock instead of seeing angry wolves mauling him, Emperor saw soldiers cheering around him. He quickly scooped up some of the loot realising he survived long enough for the soldiers to save him. But he didn't notice since he was distracted by windows.
Quest completed:
Congratulations you routed the monster wave without letting them kill even one villager
Level upX2, Titles added: Hero, Dog piler
'Sweet I'll check out those titles later on.'
Distracted by the windows Emperor tripped over some loot and faceplanted.
You have died, you will be forcibly logged off and banned for 24 real life hours.
Lynford exited his capsule cussing and then CLIFFHANGER.
Well then there's chapter 4 the first action chapter, hoped you enjoyed it.
