Attention! Everyone! The end of the world!

I turn to Sei and said

"we survive huh? It really was dangerous... Phew... Gladly you activate my sword with no second th..."

Oh...

I am about to thank her for acting on her own and for activating my sword with no second thought but i stop talking as i see Sei's face... It gives me shiver all over the body as if i had realizes some danger i am not aware until this time...

A dark atmosphere from her... as her hair shades the upper side of her face while her eyes is wide open focuses to nothing but inside her mind gives me an idea she sees something really frightening and she is worrying about it now.

I turned towards the direction of the dungeon and frowned.. What could have happened? ..

Sei then begins to speak..

"What in the world i had seen... Have you seen it? The crowds we pass by are all dead when we cross to them while we are heading out upward... Those bodies shattered into pieces... Who could have done it?"

"Hmmp?".. I reacted for it caught my interest

- Sei continues -

"What is happening, is this telling us the monster was already at the top floor feasting over the crowds while we are continously heading to the deep floors? Or is it very fast we see it dismember those people in our sight even though it was still chasing behind us?"

-The adventurers had been torn apart instantly not being able to react to the monsters assault because of its unimaginable speed....and those adventurers is at least in a level where running a 1000m is only a one footstep.... We travel in high speed which explains why we had been able to survive -

I am listening to Sei's questions till finish, then think to myself with a frowning face..

Yeah...the war between time.... This what happens to those who fights with really great speed!... Images of views is left in a person's mind because the human eyesight is not capable of following the scene.

To think she is physically active than me explains how she has seen some of the happenings. The moment she sees those people slaughtered.... Is more likely we are already around the top floor if not outside of the dungeon. Yeah, the slaughter she sees is only an afterimage of what happens. It is not because the monster was already there before getting to us for its clear that it screams from our back. The monster really slaughtered the poor guys while following us. It binge kills the poor guys!!!

While i am thinking, Sei talks again...

"But if it is because of speed..., has it not followed us already by now?"

Sei added a question with a very horrified and terrified face clarifying something out...

"well... Those people around that lost their lives has sure saved us hasn't they? Though i really feel bad about them. "

I answered feeling very sad imagining their situation, from those who enjoys their loot to those adventurers that happily looking forward bringing food to their families... But now...

my stomach feels aching as i continue due to this depressing thought....

"Dungeon..... " - i speak in a way that shows i finally understand how troublesome the place is.. -

-I settled myself and take a long breath-

i am relaxedly breathing looking towards the dungeon and enjoying the grassland view inhaling the refreshing air to my body when an idea come to my mind to what Sei is probably horrified about...

"ah... seriously?.. This cannot be..."

- i react with fear in the very time the idea becomes clear to me -

"Anything but that speed" - i heard Sei talk to herself -

once again a dark feeling filled me as i look how worried Sei is.... Sei is horrified thinking that we might have been walking around the deep floors without noticing the monster was already at the top floor slaughtering the crowds..... But it terrifies her more when she realizes the monster's speed...

It is not as fast as light which is the speed we had used, it is obviously much faster than that!!!!

It really is dangerous!!

I said to her..

"Is there someone on the kingdom that can fight the monster? We should hurry to warn them!!!"

She turns to me with a hopeless look on her face where you can easily tell she tried something out but....

"No... There is no way..."

I am looking at her when she suddenly says...

"help me!!, i want to save my family!!!"

I frown..

Tsk... I turns towards the kingdom and said, "why would i not? I am the one that treasures you all... I have to save the whole town...no...the whole kingdom!!"

"huh?"

She look at me with her eyebrow raised upward that indicates a feeling of pity and curiousness... when i grab her and said...

"Let's go!" - walks and activates the sword -

-From the mountain you can see the surroundings darkens and in an blink of an eye, a light pass through towards the kingdom-

Upon landing at Sei's place, i told her "pick up your family and run away from here..."

As for me, i head towards my apartment to take some equipment... My strongest items to be honest.. I am about to activate the sword but It seems i cant use it anymore due to the extreme fatigue the uncontrollable speed has caused me.. I mean i can activate it but i cant control it which will tear me to shreds if i slip up on the way.

Then, having no other choice i run across the town rushing to my place.... and while at it, i keep shouting to warn the townspeople encouraging them to leave the town and head to the capital of the kingdom.

I finally arrive... I immediately look for my items inside my drawers while thinking... Is the situation really this bad?, am i not only over reacting? there might be an adventurer or other personnel that owns a really strong equipments that can fight right?

As i am thinking about it, i immediately change my mood for it seems i am losing the courage to take this seriously.

"Tsk... What am i thinking, this monster is not going to slow down even a little bit, as to what i have already witnessed at the dungeon."

The moment i have been done setting my full equip mode, i reach up to the door and opens it... I put a step across the door when the great blue sky gets filled by numerous light passing through... Tsiiiw... Is what i hear as they rush to a one direction....

The kingdom's guards is here!!

Finally... Things will be safe... Those people (the guards) are clearly stronger than me... And with those number? I feel bad for that monster.

I decide to help the people evacuate... And with this speed i can do the task easily...

I bring many people to the kingdom capital which is 10,000 km away from town. But it is done as if it was nothing... The suit i wear is really the best item i got... I can travel high-speed with clear sight and controlled it very easily.

After finishing the job i take a break and looks towards the direction the guards has gone to..

Its quiet a the moment which means the monster might have been taken care of already.... I stand and decides to go help.. You might get it wrong but... Though those kingdom guards got the strongest equipment of the kingdom, it requires a lot of energy to contain it, which will drain them out if not use carefully!!

It will take a lot of their energy fighting whilst maintaining the situation, waiting for the right time...

Which is why i am going to the scene...

For there are things only i can do as a member of the family that keeps protecting the peace of this beautiful kingdom!...

- Activates the sword -

A light brightens the whole area.. its like a star that shines in the midst of the town..

i am standing in a pretty tall building... Probably a 100m plus tall structure..i set my mind into a one hit kill which is visible in my face as i flown away...

Finally the surroundings stop as it always does when i activate my sword when..... I see an..... Arm.... floating in front of me.

"Huh!!!"

I stop my acceleration immediately and....

The whole place turns black as if it is already nighttime... I still cant see the place they are fighting from my position... When something brights slowly from their direction and... It reaches me very fast... I close my eyes from the sudden approach for i cannot see anything even though i have my device that makes me capable of reading the situation in 0 time speed combats...

When i open my eyes.... I see one of the kingdom guards has the upper right part of his body ravaged.... And there is also the monster he is stopping in front of me...

I see...-my knee is shaking-... The breath of this monster is even enough to make me kneel in fear.. Why.... Why is the strongest equipment humanity has ever made is being defeated by a mere monster?!!!

"Aah.... Aargh.."

- Activates the sword once again -

I take a distance backward and look down to the capital where people are staying not moving an inch due to slow motion

Ahhh this people... Fortunately they cannot see what is happening... Well, at least they could not feel the pain of their death...

While i am looking down at them, i see a familliar face..

"that guy... "

My eyes is wide open as i am startled while my mouth trembles as i cant say a word...

Probably we really missed something very important...

I am thinking to myself as i see numerous massive fireballs spread out from the monsters six thin wings. Those fireballs that is visible in white clear color, scattered at the sky of the whole kingdom and each one that drops on the ground deletes multiple structures due to wide range destructive explosions.

While at it, immediately five severely wounded kingdom guards appears with their swords whooshing towards the monster, shouting out loud.... Haaaa!!! Die!!! you monster!!!

But the monster's skinny body where its bones mark is clearly seen, exudes monsters exactly looks like itself and block the guards by embracing them... And as far as i had seen, those many heads had their mouths opens wide, showing its glittering sharp teeth and then.... Crunch! .... Blood burst out with a sound of bones being crush by every munch of this unknown creature..while the main head is looking at the guy in my front very angry as if it is here for revenge.

Seeing this, it suddenly clears my mind and remembers..

I see...

"That guy" .. Why did i not give it a time? It will not be so bad if i heard him out right?

After all...

That guy is the one i encountered..... preaching the end of the world!!
