Yes! It came at last! I only guessed it. If the Libra would weigh the soul in one living creature, then what if that creature had two souls and not one?
I bet everything on such a possibility. And my bet was right in the end.
“I want both,” I said while the dragon leader was jumping around me, as if he was dancing.
“Give it to me to see.”
“Let me have a look.”
“Damn! It’s so cool!”
“Can I buy it from you?”
“What do you think? I can let you marry one of our sexy girls and become officially one of our dragon race! Just give this treasure as a gift for pride, give it to me.”
He kept blabbering nonsense non-stop while I only ignored him.
Dude… Couldn’t you see that I was working to break that monster’s defences? Let me focus, for god sake!
[Ten million coins are deducted]
[Warning! One of the two souls is branded of being hostile to any race in the apocalypse]
All of sudden, such a message popped up in front of my face, giving me a delighted surprise.
Wow! Even the system and the godly treasures identified that race to be the enemy of all races! That was unexpected!!
[Warning! The Libra identified one soul as a hostile soul to you]
[Warning! That hostile soul belonged to a race who was cursed by all gods before. Cursing it again will force it in a state of weakness for five minutes]
[Warning! You can pay one million coins and escape the weighing process of that hostile soul]
[Do you want to pay?]
“Pay!”
[One million coins are deducted]
[One soul is being condemned for being hostile to you. The curse will take effect when the other weighing process is over]
[The Anubis god Libra is being activated]
[The weighing process is starting…]
[One percent in progress]
[Two percent in progress]
Finally it started! Like before, the progress bar started to move at snail -like speed. Yet I wasn’t worried. After all that monster was an enemy of mine and it would get cursed as well.
Two curses affecting the monster and the Curasee parasite inside it, adding to that the added weakening effect of the curse over the Curasee.
That was more than I wanted. Like this the monster would be rendered powerless and weak for enough time. Hopefully the weakness in that Curasee would be enough to neutralise him in that fight.
“Get ready,” as the bar was about to be completed, “once I give the signal, I’ll drive the chariot straight towards it. You have to jump and lead your forces all over the belly and start attacking.”
To buy enough time for my treasure to be activated, I had to take a detour and wait.
“We’ll scatter and focus on single points first,” Fang added, “the first mission to create a deep gap into its thick skin and reach its inner organs. Once there, send in all your strongest attacks and try your best to widen the gap and deepen it.”
“I’ll send my boys once we have that opening to kill directly inside,” the berserker leader said in his harsh tone before shouting, “Ooohhhaaa!”
“Ooohhhaaa!” and the rest of his followers echoed his shout as well.
“We’ll use all our treasures to do that,” the dragon leader said, “but first we need to get there safely first.”
“Go and place all your high energy items in that pillar,” I motioned to them to move. After all, the gauge metre already reached ninety-five percent. We needed to be ready.
Despite I hated to admit it, what that dragon youth said was right. Our biggest threat now wasn’t that monster or Curasee inside it, but the angels.
I raised my head to the sky, and as expected… a red shiny point appeared up high there. The star weapon was being activated, and they were just waiting for us to directly clash with the monster.

[The curse needs one million coins to be undone off the dark realm monster race Frinsy]
[You can’t use the Anubis god Libra for an hour]
Damn! I sucked in a cold air of breath when I saw all these crowded messages. That Curasee race… They really enraged the gods!
It seemed that enraging gods wasn’t a smart move. Wait, would that also happen to me if I enraged that Anubis god or Hades?
F*ck!
For the first time, I felt a real cold inside my back when I thought about that. I never imagined dealing with gods would become this nasty, but it turned out to be!
I should rethink what I’d do regarding this issue. I planned to join the war god camp, but it seemed I threw myself into such a miserable pit of hell without realising it but it was too late!
No, I could find something to save my ass this time. Yes, I’d sort out things like I always did.
As I calmed down my fear, I shifted my eyes towards that gigantic behemoth. This time I saw the immediate effect of my curse with my own eyes.
The colossal body began to shine in strange bright black light like it was emitting dense layers of smoke. This curse was really brutal, and just as it started to work, the monster roared in panic and agony.
“No… No… F*ck you all! F*ck all the gods and races! F*ck you all!!” it started to curse and I knew these curses were hailing from the Curasee race youth called Bins.
Yes, burn in hell bastard! Get your ass lit by fire! This was the fair answer to all you’d done!
“What’s happening?”
“Look… It’s getting burnt from inside!”
“Is it safe to board it?” Fang was the one who asked me this. After all, he was smart enough to link all this to me.
“Get ready,” and I answered him with action, “I’ll drive the chariot towards it. Throw all the high energy items you can hold into the pillar. Once you start attacking it, there is no time to get back and replenish the chariot!”
“Ooohhhaaa!” The answer came first from the berserker leader who seemed to be the most excited one here by what I did.
He even looked more thrilled than what I was already feeling! And the echoing shouts from his men followed.
“Ooohhhaaa!”
“We are ready,” the dragon youth said and I could see a mysterious smile over his face. That dude was still eyeing my Libra treasure, and it seemed greed had already got into his mind.
No problem, let’s see if you could survive this battle first before thinking about what to do with you.
“Fwoosh!*
With a flash, I instantly pushed my chariot to the front at full speed. It was moving so fast that it created a long trail of after images, looking like it was teleporting and not travelling.
And with that, the real battle kicked in at last.
The monster was in deep agony. After all, the curse wasn’t just at the Curasee race Bins, but also against the dark realm monster race Frinsy as well.
But just as we started to get closer, a red beam shone all of sudden and fell and surrounded us.
“This…” the face of the succubus girl changed once that red beam appeared.
“It’s the deadly angelic weapon!”
“Watch out!”
“Run for your lives!”
Strangely shouts that asked everyone to jump spread over like fire in dry weeds. I frowned when I spotted this. Damn! Don’t tell me there were also traitors in the ranks of those races as well?
Could it be possible?
“No one move,” yet my shout came to stop the early chaos from spreading over, “as long as you are inside this chariot, you are going to be safe!”
“Stop screaming and get ready,” Fang shouted as he stood by my side and showed his support at this delicate turn of events moment.
Damn those angels! I never saw this blow coming!
Despite our shouts, many of the forces here showed signs of chaos. The deck was already crowded, and soon I saw the origin of all this.
“Traitors!” I instantly shouted.
“Anyone moves, kills without doubt… Ooohhhaaa!” The leader of the berserker was the fastest to react here.
In fact once the red beam fell and the shouts erupted, the faces of the big names in dragons and berserkers showed their hesitation and doubt.
Of course that weapon was nasty and infamous for its brutality and mercilessness. But once things started to get out of control, and I shouted traitors, they made up their minds.
“My girls, sit!” The succubus girl gave another order, yet it inspired others to follow her suit.
“All my boys… Sit!” the dragon leader shouted as well before Fang also gave the same order and that berserker leader.
Just from the war cry shout of that berserker leader I could tell that almost one third of his selected forces were turning their blades and killing those standing around them.
They weren’t an exception, as many did the same and that turned the place into a slaughterhouse!
“Let’s go!” Fang didn’t even wait for everyone to sit as he led his elites and trusted Selvators and threw himself into such chaos.
“We’ll go… Ooohhhaaa!” the berserker leader followed suit and shouted while his men repeated that war cry like it was their sacred song!
Then the dragon youth led the others of his kin to follow as well.
“What’s happening?” the succubus girl came to my side and asked in fear.
I knew this feeling, I’d seen this scene once before. I had that quest which I had to protect fifty percent of humans. And I still recalled how bitterly I lost that day thanks to such treason.
Damn! How did I never think about this? I never even imagined there would be traitors like ours inside those races as well!!
How? Why? And what for? Many questions popped into my head. The most important thing now was to hurriedly settle everything fast.
After all, the monster was still suffering alongside those damned Bins of the Curasee race and this was our moment to jump on their throats!
Sh*t! Sh*t! Sh*t!
Even before the final battle even started, we already lost almost one half of our elite forces. Even when we had them all I had my doubts about our ability to succeed this mission.
And now?…
Sh*t! Sh*t! Sh*t!
