《The Egotistical Ruler [DROPPED]》Chapter 20: Yellow
Advertisement
Back to Emperor's viewpoint. P.S. Passivly is a dick, he should've read the story a bit. Judging by the character is okay for deciding whether or not to read it but rating is a no go.
Emperor's charge into the swarming mass of mosquitos hit. He was forced to stop to a complete standstill against this immovable mass. The villagers behind him attacked beside him, with proper weapons they quickly killed mosquitos but more appeared behind them. Emperor futilely continued pushing against this mass before him. Thanks to the villagers he didn't get attacked at all as the mosquitos in front of him were squished against their kin.
Khan charged towards the swarm himself in an odd way. He could've chose to charge from the side since there was just barely enough space and could flank them. But no he charged straight to the center just like Emperor. Which happens to be where Emperor is still located at this time.
Khan crashed behind Emperor and instead of stopping he continued pushing Emperor against the mosquitos.
'What the heck is wrong with Khan!? Wait my feet are still able to touch the ground.'
Emperor managed to reach his feet to the ground and pushed forward slightly. He happily began pushing again with the force of Khan supporting him now rather than unbalancing him. He then began spamming a skill.
-Impale
Emperor kept using the Impale skill until the mosquito before him died which made Khan push him against the next mosquito. It began a strange co-op attack upon the seemingly limitless mosquitos. Soon they were deep withing the mass of mosquitos. Emperor continually used Impale as the mosquitos surrounded and pushed against him from all sides. Khan got separated from him but he was doing well with his martial skills. Emperor could only use Impale as the enemies were too close to effectively use Berserk. Which is ironic since the skill specializes in close combat.

Emperor paused to catch his breathe and realized the whole situation seemed ridiculous. He tried to save his breathe to spam Impale again but the laugh started to leak out. The echoing laugh bellowed from his gut, it burned his dry throat but he didn't mind. The euphoria from the adrenaline and the laughter itself served to restrict his sense of pain.
Skill Adrenaline acquired, skill leveled up
A slight rumble was heard and then the mosquitos as quick as they came they left. Emperor and the rest of the group were shocked but it was well received. The villagers saw it as the end of the battle and began cheering. Emperor, Khan, and Kendrick knew better, that was just a tactical retreat not a successful rout.
They ordered the villagers to rest and recuperate for the next battle and did so themselves. Emperor quickly quenched his thirst then began laughing at nothing all of a sudden so he decided to check a few things.
Skill: Warmonger's Bellow
Rarity: 1 star
Level: 3
As someone who enjoys war, your laugh carries a great weight. Does it contain happiness, cruelty, lust, or a hidden sadness. Whatever it contains it resonates with your comrades and strikes fear into your enemies. Most cannot fathom the act of laughing during war, but not only do you do it, you cannot contain it. Small chance of removing debuffs, increases coordination between allies, temporarily raises leadership, small chance of debuffing enemies.
Skill: Berserk
Rarity: Very Common
Level: 2
You strike out at enemies in any way you can. Teeth, fists, elbows, legs, feet, head, etc you use everything in your arsenal to inflict damage. Very commonly learned and used skill due to its effectiveness and lack of skill to use it well. Works better in close combat and against more than one enemy.

'Nice but I really should rename that last skill.'
-Rename Minotaur Mimicry to Emperor's Discipline
Request denied, Admin changed skill name to Empiric Minotaur Mimicry
'...'
Emperor then flipped off the sky then sat down.
'Close enough, did that admin think my naming sense was bad?'
Just then a rumbling was felt throughout the caverns and a sound like a helicopter was approaching their position. The villagers got up and readied their weapons once again. Emperor and Kendrick kept their ears and eyes open as the noise was more suspicious than before. Khan recklessly ran towards the sound as he wanted first blood.
As he turned the corner he stopped seemingly for no reason then roared loudly as though he was trying to intimidate something then ran back towards them with fear in his eyes.
-What's wrong Khan!?
"It's that bug, the yellow one that leads the bugs." replied Khan
Then they all turned as a giant bug turned the corner. It was hideous yet eerily shiny. The other mosquitos glowed as though they had bloodstones in their bodies but this one glowed as though molten yellow lava existed within it. It was as big as a 4 buses stacked in a cube shape and just barely fit through the tunnel. It had way more appendages than a normal mosquito making it look like a cross between a jellyfish and a mosquito.
When it saw the group of humans that had been wreaking havoc on its territory it became enraged. It began to put its legs together and scraped them together like it was playing a bunch of violins. The noise that came out was earth shattering and ripped up the nearby ground. It sounded like nails against a chalkboardX10. It debuffed all the villagers, Emperor, and Khan with deafness and flinching. It then ambled closer to them and ended the chapter.
Sorry got distracted right before I finished the chapter.
