Ruler's Awakening: Inheritor of the SSS-Rank Dimensional Talent

Chapter 255 Peak of Cloud Mountain



Aaron looked forward, as did Aerith. Several people from the group whose base was attacked looked back at Aaron with tired and angry faces.

Their fight didn't seem to be over yet, they just realized something that their long battle had just begun. Aaron and Aerith's presence in this place would definitely make a difference in this fight.

"You, why do you dare to interfere in this matter! You're not one of us!" said the man from the attacked group.

"I only side with those who are in my favor, and it looks like your group is not so favorable to me," Aaron explained.

Thousands of magic portals appeared in the area around the base, Aaron was still stretching his hand forward with purple light clearly emitted at the tips of his two fingers. Quickly, purple magic balls shot out from inside the portals targeting everyone in the place, whether enemies or friends.

"Pull your people back. Don't let them get killed by my attacks," Aaron explained.

The man leading the group agreed. He flew low from the sky and ordered all the members to retreat, away from the battle site.

One by one, the group members left the place injured, having been hit by enemy attacks and Aaron's purple magic ball.

Aaron didn't care. He didn't know who was friend and foe in that place, it was better to destroy them all to win this battle.

"AAAKKH!"

Screams full of agony echoed in that place, not one, but dozens of people screamed with the same pain.

The people from the attacking group's side looked surprised, they didn't expect that one Aaron could destroy the group.

"It's a good thing we cooperated with him. If we had insisted on fighting him, we would have been destroyed," explained a member of the Cloud Mountain group.

The leader of the Cloud Mountain group, Joseph, realized how capable Aaron was. He was lucky to have him on his side, and would work hard to serve Aaron and Aerith well at the Cloud Mountain group's headquarters.@@novelbin@@

BLAST!

The purple explosion occurred and inevitably, the death toll reached 78 people. The majority of them were people from the group, only a few of them were from the Cloud Mountain group.

[WARNING!]

[Host indicated to have committed murder against another adventurer]

[Number of victims: 78]

[Initiate another sentence against the Host!]

[Punishment decided]

[Forbidden to Raid Monsters on each floor for five times]

[Host will be marked with a specific title]

[Host will get the title when committing a murder. Can't change the title]

[Duration of red title usage:]

[06:23:59:59]

Again, Aaron got the red title because of his own actions. However, a war without casualties is impossible.

Despite getting the red title, Aaron wasn't that worried about it. Among the other mages on the floor, only Aaron had a way to eliminate the red title, of course by using the flag of authority.

After everything was destroyed, Aaron turned his head to the bottom right. He flew low from the sky and met Joseph, as well as the other members of the cloud mountain group.

"Thank you for your help, sir. If you hadn't helped, I'm afraid this war would have been prolonged," Joseph replied.

Aaron nodded. He took out an HP Potion from his digital storage, then handed the item to Joseph.

"Restore the condition of your members first, then we will go to your group's base," Aaron said.

Joseph accepted the 50 level 5 HP Potions given by Aaron. The man was initially surprised by the amount, but slowly began to understand the situation.

Aaron's abilities far exceeded his abilities, let alone the abilities of his members. It was only natural according to Joseph that Aaron had many valuable items in his digital storage.

Aaron looked back, watching the burnt buildings and human remains at the end of the forest. There was nothing left of their group, not even one member of the group could save themselves.

Aerith looked to the side, finding Aaron's stern expression watching the blaze at this end of the forest.

"Do you sympathize with them?" asked Aerith.

Aaron cleared his throat. There was a twinge of sadness in the man's heart when he saw humans die defending what was important to them. However, the world was not fair to the weak.

The strong always tried to take supremacy over everything. In this war, the Cloud Mountain group was probably a much stronger group than them.

Just fighting and hiding, that was all the weak could do to survive.

"If I join them in this war and I win it for them, they'll call me a hero," Aaron replied.

"But, if I join Cloud Mountain and destroy them, Cloud Mountain only considers me as a potential alliance, but they call me a demon," Aaron replied.

"There is good and bad in life. We can't satisfy both sides of the conflict," Aerith explained.

Aaron nodded. He realized that the journey from the bottom floor to the 51st floor had taught him a lot about the meaning of life, infighting, betrayal, loyalty, and love.

The man did not deny that the world was cruel, but behind the cruelty of the world, there was its own beauty that people were easily grateful for.

And that's important! Not power or influence, but the kindness of people.

Joseph came striding over to Aaron. He said clearly that the members had been restored. They were ready to leave for home.

Aaron and Aerith looked back. Aaron nodded, he invited them to go lead the way, Aaron would follow clearly from behind.

The two of them flew at a moderate pace following the people from behind. One of the group members who was a woman explained that the location of their base was on a cool hilltop.

"Hilltop? But why are you attacking a group far away from your base?" asked Aerith.

"Our group and the Rainforest group have had a bad relationship for the past few months. The highlight was last week, they managed to steal some items from our base," replied the woman from the Cloud Mountain group.

"So, did you get those items back?" asked Aerith, as the woman nodded.

"Why do you keep attacking them? They've already been proven guilty."

"Captain Joseph said that if we don't destroy them, then they will do the same thing in the future."

"What we do today will have a significant impact on the future of the Cloud Mountain group."

'That's just Joseph's false fear. I didn't think he could decide that just because another group took items from Cloud Mountain,' Aaron said.

They didn't continue talking. They continued to fly up the hill until they penetrated the sea of white clouds. There, Aaron found a building with temple-like architecture standing firmly on a rocky hill.

Aaron and Aerith stopped walking. Aerith tried to touch the cloud that flew near her, but to her surprise, it was not a cloud, but a cloud manifestation of magic.

"This cloud is magic," Aerith explained.

"Yes. I can feel it, all of this is magic," Aaron said.

The woman from the Cloud Mountain group seemed to stop flying. She looked back and saw the figures of Aaron and Aerith, both of them were stunned at the beauty of this place.

"What are you doing? Come with me. I'll show you where to stay," said the woman.

Aerith said yes. She took Aaron away while pulling the man's hand. The two of them left the place, heading towards the temple on the hill.

The two of them seemed to set foot on the hill, the air felt fresh and invigorating, there were no distractions as far as they could see.

"Captain Joseph said that he would do something, like report this battle to the group elders," the woman explained.

"He assigned me to take you to the house where you're staying. You'll like it," she added.

Aaron and Aerith fell silent. They continued to follow the woman as they looked to their right and left, taking in the buildings in the group's headquarters.

From afar, there was a two-story house with a front yard full of grass. The woman explained that it would be a place for Aaron and Aerith to stay.

Aerith immediately liked it, especially since she liked being in a beautiful place like the Cloud Mountain group headquarters.

She immediately ran down the steps and arrived at the house, Aaron following behind.

"How was it?" Aaron asked.

"I liked it. It's very relaxing, there's no commotion like a big city," Aerith said.

"That's good. If that's the case, we'll stay here for a while until the monster raid opens."

The woman said yes. She said that all of Aaron and Aerith's needs would be provided by the group, considering that Aaron was quite instrumental in the war yesterday.

Some of the other members came over, wanting to see the person the whole group was gossiping about. There, they saw two mysterious people talking to Natalya, Joseph's aide.

Aaron noticed the presence of the crowd at the top of the stairs. Natalya smiled, as she began to explain how popular Aaron and Aerith were to them.

"You guys are already famous here. You're the first person who can destroy a group with your own power," Natalya explained.

"Let alone a group, he's already destroyed a city," Aerith retorted.

"A city? Are you Aaron Lewis by any chance?" asked Natalya in shock.

"Hmm... it seems it took you a long time to figure out my identity."
