Dimension Game Empire Chapter 096

After Dart’s death, the back of his right hand glowed with a deep blue light. The power of the ‘Void Genome’ can be transferred after the host’s death. This power subconsciously rushed towards Xia Yan, who had killed its host.

Silver ribbons danced on Xia Yan’s right arm, echoing the ‘King’s Crest’ on his right hand, slowly merging together.

“Da… Dart!”

Keido Shuichiro watched in disbelief as the blonde boy collapsed to the ground. The enigmatic and seemingly omnipotent gravedigger had died right before his eyes. This was something he had never even imagined, yet it had happened so abruptly.

Keido Shuichiro staggered back two steps in terror, staring in disbelief at Dart’s lifeless body on the ground. Soon, this fear spread to Xia Yan, the source of it all.

The ambitious man looked at Xia Yan in panic, then turned and ran. Fortunately, Keido Shuichiro retained some basic rationality. He wasn’t foolish enough to think he could escape Xia Yan’s pursuit, so he chose to fight to the death.

Keido Shuichiro hugged the Origin Stone container, manipulating the Origin Stone as he had done before. Clinging to the hope that ‘it could trap him before, so it should work now,’ Keido Shuichiro unleashed the full power of the Origin Stone.

However, Xia Yan didn’t react to Keido Shuichiro’s actions. Instead, he looked at him struggling in his death throes with a playful expression.

The Origin Stone does have the ability to manipulate the Apocalypse Virus, but against the awakened Eve, the Apocalypse Virus would still obey the Origin Stone’s commands, but using it to attack Eve was wishful thinking.

So, no matter how Keido Shuichiro urged the Origin Stone, manipulating the surrounding Apocalypse Virus to attack Xia Yan and Mana, nothing happened.

“Why?! Why isn’t it working!”

With his life on the line, Keido Shuichiro roared at the Origin Stone in panic and resentment.

“Now, Mr. Keido Shuichiro? What are you doing?”

Quietly observing the ambitious man’s desperate struggle, Mana’s face was filled with a mischievous and satisfied smile. The girl’s voice, as melodious as a wind chime, asked teasingly.

“Uh…”

Keido Shuichiro froze. This teasing tone and slightly cunning words could not have come from Yuzuriha Inori, but from a girl he knew very well.

It was the voice of the girl who could help him achieve his ambition, the girl he had dreamed of for ten years – Ouma Mana.

“Ma… Mana.”

Keido Shuichiro tremblingly raised his hand, looking at the beautiful pink-haired girl, and said in a trembling voice.

“Mo~~ Don’t call me by my name, Mr. Keido Shuichiro…”

A hint of disgust flashed in her deep red eyes, but Mana still looked at him with a smile, wanting to see an even more desperate expression on his face.

“Or should I call you ‘Uncle’?”

Although she didn’t know how long it had been outside, the time that Xia Yan, Inori, and Mana spent in the consciousness space was a bit long. Xia Yan simply explained the situation outside to the two girls, Mana and Inori.

Keido Shuichiro is the brother of Ouma Haruka, and Haruka is Mana’s adoptive mother. So, even though there is no blood relationship, he is Mana’s elder in terms of seniority. Although this elder is a pervert who has always wanted to marry his niece because of his ambition.

“Ma… Mana!”

After years of dreaming, Keido Shuichiro couldn’t help but utter a murmur.

“So, don’t call me by my name directly…”

Mana frowned slightly. The girl’s troubled appearance made people feel pity and want to solve her problem. But soon, the cold tone that came from Mana’s mouth completely froze Keido Shuichiro.

“It’s really disgusting~~”

Along with the girl’s cold words, the Apocalypse Virus crystals around them seemed to have agreed in advance and pounced on Keido Shuichiro all at once.

The last consciousness that Keido Shuichiro left in this world was deep disbelief and the despair of his ambition being shattered.

“Ding – Your contractor ‘Yuzuriha Inori (Ouma Mana)’ has killed Keido Shuichiro, triggering a hidden plot, rewarding four VIP points. Your current remaining points are thirty-two.”

Although he had no combat power, Keido Shuichiro was, after all, the boss of the Guilty Crown world, an ambitious man, and a key figure in driving the plot. Xia Yan felt that four points were a bit too few for him to be killed, considering that he held great power and military strength.

Before Xia Yan could react, the virtual panel popped up with another notification.

“Ding – Your contractor ‘Yuudachi’ has killed game member ‘Leighton’. Since this scene is a faction battle game, you will receive all the points and items from the other party. Your current remaining points are thirty-seven.”

“You have obtained the items – Suppression Serum, Red Dragon Vial.”

At this moment, the King’s Crest on the back of Xia Yan’s right hand also completed its devouring and fusion with a burst of intense pain.

“Ding – Your special skill ‘Void Extraction’ has devoured the other party’s ‘Armed Virus’ ability due to its devouring and merging effect, and you have obtained the other party’s basic effects on Armed Virus.”

Void – King’s Crest – Able to turn the hearts of others into weapons for battle. After devouring Dart, you now have the ability to fuse different Voids.

Fuse Voids?!

Xia Yan raised his eyebrows in surprise. Dart’s Void is about the ability to fuse?

Armed Virus – Its basic ability is to extract Voids from the hearts of others. But the more important ability is to reflect the characteristics of the ‘King’s’ own Void.

For example, Ouma Shu’s Void – is a Void hand that can absorb and store the Voids of others, so after extracting other people’s Voids, he can give the Voids back to the original host.

Tsutsugami Gai’s Void – is a gun that can forcibly extract other people’s Voids, so he doesn’t need to do anything, just a look can extract other people’s Voids.

And Xia Yan – he also tried to extract his own Void, but he didn’t find anything. However, his ‘Armed Virus’ ability has the characteristic of dissolving the heart walls of others.

‘I didn’t expect that I could achieve evolution through devouring.’

Xia Yan thought silently. In this way, the next ‘Void Genome’ must be used well.
