Villain With The Strongest System

*Thud* *Thud* *Thud*

As Sophia led Erin, Rocky and Buhara down the secret tunnel, the only thoughts that went on in her head were about the reactions that her friends would give when they realized that she had betrayed them.

Sophia knew that Erin would probably look at her as if she were a nasty whore, his reaction would undoubtedly be one of disdain where he would look at her as if she were a worthless snake.

Buhara on the other hand would probably be confused and sad.

The betrayal would probably be too much for the emotional orc and he would be paralyzed by emotional dilemma, or at least that's how Sophia envisioned him to react.

This only left Rocky, and to be fair Sophia could not imagine, just how Rocky would react to her betrayal?

Was he going to be sad?

Shocked?

Would he try to futilely retaliate?

Sophia wasn't sure, however, it was his reaction that she was the most curious to witness, as although Sophia did not like to admit it, even to herself, due to the time that she had spent together with Rocky at the university, she had grown to like him, even if she did not wish to.

In her eyes he was a good friend and a dependable leader and had fate not put her at odds against him, Rocky was probably the only individual from that university that Sophia would actually have chosen to be genuinely friends with.

'We could have been friends, Rocky…. However, fate did not allow for it in this life' Sophia thought, as she threw a slightly guilt filled glance towards Rocky, before shaking that feeling off.

There was no point in regretting her choices anymore, as she had already started a chain of events that was going to lead Rocky to his doom.

Once they reached the end of this tunnel, he was going to be captured alive by the Olympian forces waiting in ambush for his arrival and escorted out of Floor 21.

Once he was out of Floor21, he was scheduled to be presented straight to her father who needed Rocky to strip him off his divinity and absorb some of the strength of Gemini from his soul.

There Rocky was going to undergo the most brutal and painful forms of torture as he was slowly stripped of his soul and his strength, until he was eventually reduced to a disheveled pile of bones on the verge of death.

Thinking about his eventual fate, Sophia felt even more guilty. However, it was already too late for her to change her mind, since breaking her word now and alerting him about the danger ahead would lead to her own soul-oath triggering, ending her life.

Putting her own survival in this scenario first, Sophia hence decided to not dwell on those feelings of guilt, for they were useless and instead only focus on the task at hand.

"We are almost there… The purple markings here means that we have reached near the walls of the outer palace and the area ahead of it is the tunnel's portion within the palace" Sophia explained, as she led the group to the part of the tunnel which ran under the floor21 palace, towards the underground prison.

( Meanwhile Perseus )

Perseus paced about in his room with a binoculars like device in his hands, looking extremely agitated.

"What the hell? Why did the True Elites Guild find additional help in this war right at my doorstep?

Why did the Church Of Cowards have to help them of all the factions around?

And why did this particular army of cowards have to have siege weapons like Arch-Ballistae and Inferno towers?

How can I ever hope to mount a defense against such fire-power?" Perseus mumbled to himself, as he slowly but surely lost all hopes of trying to defend his palace against his opponents.

Had Liam not damaged the palace and wiped out his strongest army units already, Perseus would have perhaps held on to a semblance of hope that he could hold them off and keep them at bay, however, in the rag-tag condition that the palace was in and the untrained units that made up the numbers in his army, Perseus had no hope to defeat such a large and well armed enemy army.

"Olympus is going to lose their control over floor 21 today.

It's time to salvage the situation and gather all the important assets that need evacuation.

If I'm going to lose this floor to the enemies, I'll make sure I leave nothing for them to enjoy here" Perseus mumbled to himself as he turned towards his subordinates and began shouting orders of what all needed to be evacuated and what critical infrastructure needed to be sabotaged and destroyed.

"Destroy the celestial iron ore mines, Destroy the white oak tree plantations, Poison all the water sources in the vicinity, Gather all the Royal Treasure in large crates and prepare for it to be evacuated" Perseus ordered as instead of planning how to fight, he plotted his escape before the fight had officially even begun.

"Someone update me on the situation regarding my sister and the Champion Of Gemini!

Where is my most valued prisoner?" Perseus wondered, as he anxiously asked for the report on Rocky, the only individual that could save him from facing an utter failure in the eyes of his father.

"Reporting to the lord, lady Sophia has still not shown up to the ambush location with the Champion Of Gemini…. We are still waiting for that operation to start" replied a servant, as Perseus cursed under his breath listening to his report.

"Agh, that two TG cunt. I wonder if she has taken the opportunity to try and fuck the Champion Of Gemini down in the tunnels for a last time?

A little remembrance for old times sake, as I cannot imagine any other reason as to why she would take so long" Perseus cursed as he anxiously waited on the results of Rocky's capture.
