Re-Awakening: I Became a Pay To Win Boss Monster-Chapter 222: Rael, The Platinum Sponge

Chapter 222: Rael, The Platinum Sponge

[Rael’s POV]

“Fuck.”

[Kekekeke, nice one, dumbass,] Burger snickered.

“You can’t even blame me for this one. Who in their right mind would shit in the desert?” Rael replied with disgust as he threw his shoes away and bought a new pair.

Burger was in his talkative phase again, but it was also about time Rael figured out what to do with it.

“So you said you don’t eat catnip. Is it souls you eat?” Rael asked.

[Souls? Sure. Souls can work, memories, all of that annoying stuff that even demons fawn over,] Burger replied. [What? Do you want to offer your soul in exchange for power?]

Rael scoffed. “What power? You’re weaker than I am.”

Burger chuckled. [Check again.]

“Hm…? Sure?”

Huh. Well, I’ll be damned. He’s still weaker than me though. Rael whistled and decided to take a look at his own status screen.

Of course, his stats were obviously much higher than Burger’s.

It was a bulky status screen, and if he had scrolled down further, he wouldn’t see the end of it.

Even so, he was glad that his Second Phase transformation increased his Willpower, not his Constitution stat, by five times.

But aside from that, he wanted to get along with Burger. Mostly since the two were already stuck together, so they might as well bond.

Burger was a Spirit King, and if Rael recalled correctly, it was one of the highest ranks.

Of course, there was also a Spirit Emperor and Spirit God, but he was too broke to afford either of those.

[Hey, I might be a Spirit King, but I used to be a Spirit Emperor,] Burger shot back.

“And what happened? Did you piss someone off and get demoted?” Rael chuckled.

[Not exactly…] Burger trailed off, his tone growing serious. [I killed my contractor. It was the first time I had done so, and it’s considered taboo. We spirits don’t have much of a purpose besides fulfilling the needs of the contractors. Whether they are evil or good, we don’t judge or discriminate.]

Rael stopped, his brows furrowing. “What did your contractor do that made you want to kill them?”

A moment of silence ensued, but it was soon broken by Burger’s sigh.

[They had eaten a spirit. I can tolerate them using spirits for their own gains, but I draw the line at absorption,] Burger replied coldly. [When a spirit dies, their souls vanish, and they don’t re-enter the spirit realm. My contractor kept absorbing them, and in the end, I had no choice but to deal with them myself.]

I see… I treated him like a joke, but it seems like even spirits have their own backstories…

“I’m sorry to hear that,” Rael said as he looked ahead.

Veltharin was off in the distance, and unlike the rest of the cities he had been in, it seemed extremely fortified.

Coupled with that, he could see many soldiers huddled around the city wall, looking menacing.

[Are you going to dawdle or head inside?] Burger asked. [I’m sure there won’t be much trouble even if you go straight for them, though.]

“Yeah…” A faint grin formed on Rael’s face. “There’s actually something I’ve been wanting to try.”

That something?

[Whale Destroyer]

Passive Effect: Allies within range gain +30% to all stats.

Penalty: Enemies who attack you lose 1% of their total Trell per hit.

Rael whistled as he began walking toward the city. It didn’t take long for the guards to finally spot him as they sounded the horns.

The soldiers reacted instantly, and from atop the wall, Rael saw hundreds, if not thousands, of archers gather.

Rael spread his arms wide, taunting them, and soon… a volley of thousands of arrows flew toward him.

But instead of dodging, Rael proceeded to run into each one of the arrows, or at least as many as he could.

[HP -29.90M! | 16,376B / 16,460B] (x8,515 Arrows)

They did considerable damage, but most importantly…

<+43,428,525 Trell>

“Pfftt…” Rael nearly fell over in surprise.

It seemed like someone up there was really rich for him to get such a sum.

But hey, he welcomed it. In fact…

“Hey! Shoot more, you fucking pussies!” Rael yelled, showing them the middle finger.

And it seemed like the soldiers didn’t realize what was happening, since in the very next moment, another barrage came raining down on him, then a couple more.

[HP -32.91M! | 16,343B / 16,460B] (x9,422 Arrows)

[HP -35.42M! | 16,307B / 16,460B] (x9,988 Arrows)

[HP -41.85M! | 16,265B / 16,460B] (x10,502 Arrows)

Each time, he caught more and more arrows with his body, and thankfully he did, because whoever was up there clearly had way too much money.

<+58,111,742 Trell>

<+29,025,848 Trell>

<+143,428,525 Trell>

“Hahahaha! You fuckers are going in for an early retirement!”

In the meantime, Burger manifested itself in its black slime form, looking Rael up and down as if he had lost his mind.

[…Is this what a masochist looks like?]
