This was the latest unique skill acquired by One during his inheritance quest.
Originally, he wanted to keep this as a secret weapon against Wil but after hearing the news about how his levels soared too high, One decided to level up first by amassing a large amount of War points.
He felt that unless he is level-300, it would be tough to battle against Wil.
So that's why, from Gailzach Province, there were no NPC generals or soldiers. All of them were stationed in the capital city for defense.
He also wanted to use his authority as the Governor and restricted players to defend with the soldiers rather than attacking the NPC.
However, thinking that the players will fill the forums with complaints, he decided against it at the last minute.
If he can't restrict them, what can he do now?
Well Go on a solo rampage, of course
This is the reason he started the war by using one of his trump cards. He still has the Eternal fire to deal with Wil, anyway.
*Ding! You killed a 1-star player. You receive 0 War points.
*Ding! You killed a 2-star player. You receive 1 War point.
*Ding! You killed a 2-star player. You receive 1 War point.

*Ding! You killed a 3-star player. You receive 10 War points.
*Ding! You killed a 2-star player. You receive 1 War point.
"What!" One was taken aback upon receiving hundreds of notifications, following his act. "Killing enemy players will also give War points? It wasn't ntioned in the details before"
Sumrsoft once again hid so stuff in the details. Those who are 1-star, i.e. level-100 and below, will give 0 War points.
Those who are 2-star i.e. level 101-200, will give 1 War point equivalent to that of a common soldier.
And those who are 3-star i.e. level 201-300, will give 10 War points equivalent to that of an elite or a captain.
And unless one kills a player, they wouldn't know about the chanism.
"I see now I got it why does the reward section ntion 1 million above War points."
At first, One's intention is to breakthrough the player defense on the border and attack the kingdom but now that he got a lovely opportunity, he wouldn't miss it.
"Minos, leave none of them alive"
One man vs a whole kingdom. And the latter was still on the losing side.
***
Weford city, Searvale kingdom;
In the city of Weford which is now under lockdown with every NPC guarding the outskirts and inside, there's a place that was very busy with players. It is a simple-looking restaurant on an empty street.
Currently, it was occupied by Galaxy Net mbers, which led one to wonder what happened to their headquarters, the guild residence.
Well, as their HQ is in the pri area, the roads were blocked by the citizens, which made trouble for the Elites who co and go.
With wars happening all over the world, there are hundreds of requests from several guilds to get the information of their enemy.
As a guild that handles the information network, their environnt had to be in peace in order for them to work at their best. So, they shifted their base temporarily.
Another reason is that Akiko returned from Athledon. As she's no longer a part of the guild, she wouldn't be able to enter the guild residence.
Either way, for them, whether it is the guild residence or the restaurant, it isn't important.
Shihei, Kiyumi, Akiko, Konami, and other Elites are busy gathering the reports from all the battlefields. anwhile, the youngest was off to school and Rini was with Wil.
"What's the status in North Zalfari?" Shihei asked.
Konami who is in charge of the North Zalfari continent answered, "Uncle, we've really underestimated One.
It seems like he released a legendary grade, level-500 monster onto the battlefield."
"A level-500 monster?" Shihei frowned. "When did he caught one?"
"There's no guardian beast with such appearance and neither there's an existence of a minotaur." Akiko chipped into the conversation. "I think it's a skill summon."
Konami nodded, "Yeah. Its description stated that it's a gatekeeper of Tartarus. And, as for its stats, several reports ntioned that its HP was over 600 Billion, and not even a general could stop a swing from it. The battle already reached the final stage. The beast and One are fighting against Eiron's king."
"Final stage?" Shihei was taken aback by the news. "But, it's only like 45 minutes since the War started."
He looked at his third niece, "Akiko-chan, what about the South Zalfari?"
Akiko shrugged her shoulders, "Not much exciting as One's one-man show. They just started and the players clashed. The Wars are going on mostly on the boundaries.
There are no people like One or Williard out there. So, I think we have to wait at least 5-6 hours to predict sothing."
Shihei nodded. Then, he turned his attention towards his favorite niece, "what about Kiyumi-chan How is Xynnar? No, tell first about the situation with our kingdom How much are the winning chances?"
"Earlier, I had a contact with Rini" As soon as Kiyumi brought up her na, Shihei's face darkened a bit.
"Where is that rebellious brat?" Shihei asked her with a growl.
Shihei clearly ordered her to lead the Royal knights or a regint to improve her image among the soldiers but the reports told him about how she was absent with the Army.
Here he was working so hard to make her the Queen and this little brat is doing whatever she wants. Clearly, he was displeased with her actions.
"It isn't what you think, Uncle." Kiyumi, who understood her uncle's mindset, explained to him everything about her encounter with the mysterious helper and the following events.
After hearing everything, Shihei sighed as he shook his head in response, "still, she shouldn't have gone With the Queen's absence, it would be even better if she argued with the Queen and stayed back to lead the army.
She missed a great opportunity. If only she had consulted us before making the decision, sigh Akiko-chan" He then looked at Akiko and further said, "if you face a tough decision, always take a second opinion even after you decide on sothing, understand?"
Although he wasn't angry with Rini as before, he was still displeased with her actions. Not intending to talk about her further, he asked about the remaining battles.
Kiyumi proceeds to read the reports.
"Well, the three-way war between Baernarta, Everton, and Forlond is in a deadlock. Baernarta and Forlond are Elven kingdoms. So, they allied with each other but even their combined army wasn't able to overpower the weakened Everton."
Upon hearing it, Shihei mumbled, "I thought it was just Searvale but it seems like the NPC Elves aren't actively participating in any war. They are stationed in their cities to defend."
anwhile, Kiyumi continued, "For the second three-way war between Rivendell, Yhenaes, and Tavrobel the battle is slightly in Elves' favor even though Tavrobel's military strength is higher than the combined strength of the other two."
"Hmm I think the key here is the players." Akiko comnted, "Rivendell has a lot of three-star players compared to others. So, it probably gave them the edge."
"Yeah." Kiyumi nodded, "The third three-way war between Tirion, Edhellond, and Arkaley Well, they are in the exact sa situation as the first one. Even with Tirion and Edhellond as allies, Neither one has great military strength or players So, it will co down to who has better strategies.
The problem is with the remaining two wars" Kiyumi let out a sigh.
"Llyne is already submitted to Zuweth. So, the war is pretty much a piece of cake for Zuweth. Evelon shouldn't have the ans to defend them, right?" Akiko asked her.
With Wil on Llyne's side, there will be hardly any problem. She was confident in his strength. So, what's the surprise here. Akiko wondered.
"Well The problem isn't the war but your hubby He's going to draw the hate once again for sure" Kiyumi answered with a sigh. "I thought 'One' is too much but Mr. Ravens is on a whole another level."
"Williard?" Akiko blinked her eyes as she looked at Kiyumi.
