I've Become the King of Villains in the Game-Chapter 540 - 379 Mysterious Oath (Two in One)

Chapter 540 -379 Mysterious Oath (Two in One)

The scene fell silent for a long while.

“Is it… over?!”

The players stood in shock, hardly able to believe it.

“It should be…”

They stared at the nearly 100-meter-diameter gigantic pit not far away, their hearts stopping for a moment.

The once invincible boss of the Red Apple Church, along with everything on this stretch of ground, had been sucked into the giant black polyhedron, crushed, and dissipated with the collapse.

And the one who caused this scene was their own faction’s leader, Mr. Jack…

They couldn’t help but shift their gaze towards him.

It was now sunset.

In the twilight, at the edge of the deep pit, the tall Pale Knight stood in silence. His terrifyingly large Silver Sword was planted next to him, its gleaming blade reflecting a blood-red glow like a mirror.

The sounds of gunfire, melee, and howling still hadn’t ceased around them, everything resembling a scene from an epic.

A player captured this moment with a screenshot and excitedly shared it in the chat channel.

On the battlefield, tens of thousands of players were closely following the boss fight. When they saw the screenshot, they were first shocked and then erupted in intense joy.

“We won!”

“Jack has won! Hahahaha!!”

“With him around, we don’t have to worry about failing our mission! Kill! Keep killing the enemy! All of these are Experience Points and merits!”

“Brother’s right! We can’t let any monsters escape on the field! I’m off!”

“Fools are still chatting, smart ones have already started hunting monsters…”

“Fuck your mom!”

At that moment,

Golden Cup council members and Circus executives who could still move crowded forward.

“Lord Jack, are you alright?”

Frey asked with his head bowed.

Chen Lun slowly reverted from his Pale Knight form, returning to his dark hat and suit attire.

He leaned on his Silver Staff, now back to its original form, touched his hat, and silently shook his head. Then he gazed into the distance at the still-rampaging Red fortresses and said in a cold voice,

“Apart from Aester, Coleman, and Noah, who can’t move due to their injuries, I need you guys to now go and completely destroy the ‘Abomination Fortress’…”

“Yes! Lord Jack!”

Frey, Akebin, and four other members of the Golden Cup council, along with the people from the Circus, responded with a bow.

“Remember, its core is the statue of Lady Rose deep within the castle!”

Chen Lun immediately added another instruction.

“Also, Floey stays behind.”

The girl in the black dress obediently hummed a response and slowly walked to stand quietly by his side. The rest didn’t ask further questions and quickly headed towards the Abomination Fortress.

With the high-end defenses of the Red Apple Church gone, that huge fortress had become an empty shell. They could easily break in and destroy it from the inside out.

Once everyone had left, only two people remained.

Chen Lun then took a deep breath, turned his head to look at Floey, and said in a deep voice,

“Mr. Bales has fallen.”

“Uncle…?”

Floey was momentarily taken aback.

The news was abrupt, leaving her momentarily at a loss.

Although Floey had only met Bales once, she had come to know her own heritage through him… and this uncle was her last remaining kin in the world.

There wasn’t a deep emotional bond between them, but the connection of blood was undeniable. And Bales, to her, had seemed like a stranger, yet someone she could trust…

But now, her last living relative was no more.

Floey’s emotions were complex as she softly asked,

“How… did he die?”

Chen Lun’s eyelids drooped as he said solemnly,

“Mr. Bales sought revenge against Archbishop Terence of the Sun Church, but he failed… On his escape with grave injuries, he was ambushed and surrounded by the Red Apple Church’s Archbishop Lafa and ultimately perished.”

He concealed the true cause of Mr. Bales’s death, which was that Howard had manipulated Destiny’s course, inducing a coincidence that led to his end.

To Floey, “failing in revenge” was easier to accept than “being schemed against.”

Moreover, Chen Lun didn’t want to see her worry about him or live with hatred as in her previous life. After all, Howard had also used similar tactics against him… and eventually, he would have to face this man one day.

This was something no one could help him with; he had to face it alone.

Floey pursed her lips, remaining silent.

She had heard about her uncle Bales from Chen Lun, about how he defected from the Moon Church and became an enemy of the Sun Church because of the death of his lover, Youlan…

“A Wolf Clan’s blood runs thick with devotion to love,” she thought to herself.

She couldn’t help wondering if she would do the same as her uncle if faced with a similar situation—full of determination to exact revenge at any cost.

Floey felt the answer was affirmative.

If…

The man before her were to die, then she would certainly seek revenge for him.

Even if it cost her everything.

“Mr. Bales expressed in his final moments that you are the last of the Wolf Clan’s bloodline and asked me to take good care of you,” Chen Lun said as he opened his palm, a faint purple glow flickering within it.

“This is his legacy. I think… it is most fitting for you to use it. After all, it is like having your kin by your side at all times, Floey.”

“Uncle’s legacy…”

Floey tightened her grip on her small hands and then slowly accepted it.

She immediately felt a warm sensation emanating from the orb.

Simultaneously, there was a strong, burning, and inseparable love conveyed from within, merging and repeating—
