The Lazy System's Path

Chapter 2

"Son of a b*tch! Lets duke it all out NOW!" The necromancer payed no more heed to his opponent's words and held his scepter high.

Sounds of utmost chilling shrieks and cries were heard and a massive ball of vengeful spirits was congealing above the necromancer. His eyes let out a blood-thristy glow and his lips creeped into a malicious smile.

"Oh yeah!? This will be YOUR final battle then!" The white man that had emerged from the lion's corpse took out his sword from plain air before sprinting towards the necromancer while wearing a battle-maniac expression.

*Shing*

When the two powers met, a dangerous shockwave followed by an explosion, encompassed the whole forest.

The materialized Argen, used every drop of his [System's Energy] to shield his host. If Argen was not distracted before his host was eaten alive, he could have prevented the catastrophe by activating this shield.

However, the damage was already done.

The two innocent bystanders, one unconcious and the other wide awake, were ignored by the two beings.

Sh*t sh*t sh*t! We'll die before the ten minutes are up! F*ck! Could you please battle somewhere else?!

*ding*

[System #901. Your host's condition has worsened and 2 minutes is now what remains of the available 7 minutes and 43 seconds you have spent within the 10 minutes. Your energy only has a drop remaining and because of that you will perish 32 seconds earlier than the host. Have a nice day]

Urgh...

"YOU A*SHOLES!!!!" Argen couldn't help but let out his frustrations. However the two seemed to have either haven't heard his insult or just plain ignored it. They were exchanging blows after blows and it was growing in intensity.

Soon enough, after a few seconds of trading violent blows, the two halted to gasp for air.

"I guess your momentum has faltered. Not even enough to literally destroy a country nor a mountain in a single slash."

"Tell that to the mirror you idiot! How can our powers not deplete after that continuous exchange for a friggin THOUSAND YEARS! Now our punches are only as strong as a sissy! I'm sick of your face! Thats why I pretended to be a beast just to shrug you off for breather. I took my act so well I even did cannibalism! Damn! Didn't you know you were that persistent on seeing me! Did you fell in love with me or something?"

"BULLSH*T! I just want to get rid of you once and for all! If your citizens whom revered you so much were to see you rambling trash and acting like a sh*t, they'd suicide on the spot!!!"

"Shut up! Tell that to your undead kingdom! They can't even escape your dumb reign through dying! I pity them!"

"Y-you...!" The one who called himself Ruler of Necromancy spat blood in frustration. He regretted not learning words back when he was a child or else this exchange of insults would be a piece of cake!

The King of Sublime World let out a guffawing triumphant laugh. In terms of words, he has never lost.

Argen was incensed at these two's behaivior. How dare they ignore him?

I'm gonna die anyway. Might as well do some vengeance.

These two were both connected to the reason why he and his host were dying.

Firstly, the black robed chased the white one so bad that he decided to pretend to be THAT lion. The act was so good, his host just HAD to be there to prove his acting skills.

Great. Just wonderful.

There was a saying that a person's limits would be surpassed(or not) in the face of death.

Lets try and see which category do I belong in.

However...

A dull sound of a bell revibrated through their eardrums. After that, an old voice permeated through the air.

"Didn't the ancient pact says no one from the top world echelons from both of the upper and lower realms were to step onto mine?!" This voice contained clear anger within it.

"This...! Is this the will of this world? But how...!?" The two beings were stumped.

"And look what you've done to my protagonist? That's going way overboard in our pact! Coming here and the first thing you kill is my genius! It was okay if he died in the hands of someone from this world. I understand it is the battle of the fittest. But y-you...! Futhermore the rulers of both the top echelons! I'll make you pay for that!" Suddenly, the skies grew dark and thunder and lightning enhanced the scary atmosphere. "You two has a successor in line back in your worlds right?" The voice's tone was threatening and emitted killing intent

"Senior...!" Trepadatation was chewing away their hearts. "Please have mercy senior!" They begged. They also wondered how in the world did they do any harm to this world's protagonist when they never harmed a single human when they came. Suddenly the King of Sublime World remembered he seemed to have devoured one.

He was now draping in cold sweat as turned his head to look at the lion's corpse. He was about to scan the lion with his [Divine Scrutiny] when Argen spoke.

"He's here" Argen said with an indignant expression and stepped to the side to let them get a clear look at his host.

Oh? That busy-body person who minded our businesses? The one who called us a*sholes?

"And who are you?" The necromancer asked to Argen while feeling wary.

"System #901 of this world's protagonist"

"Oh"

Wait, but isn't the protagonist just a Magic Beginner 4? How did his system materialize? Unless...

The King of Sublime World felt really guilty. The necromancer saw the half-corpse of Argen's host and figured out how he met his demise. He snickered and sent a telepathy message to his opponent.

"Hahaha! You're doomed!" He gloated

"Shut up! You are also indirectly the cause!" The old voice replied as if he had heard of the telepathic message the necromancer sent.

Argen shot a death-glare towards the two.

"System #901. What do you propose for their punishment?" The voice felt, since Argen was the only one conscious among the victims, he should ask him

"I would like for them to heal my host and perhaps help me regain my depleted [System's Energy]. I'll die in 32 seconds. 31...30...29..."

The two leaders nodded in understanding and raised their palm towards Argen. Their palms let out a beam that lightened up Argen's body.

[System #901. Your energy has increased. You will die a second later than the host. Have a nice day]

"Can you do something to my host?" Argen asked with a glimpse of hope.

"We don't have life-saving skills nor healing pills anymore! Neither do we have any way to save him!" The two interjected.

"YOU IMBECILES! THEN YOU SHALL REPLACE MY WORLD'S PROTAGONIST!" The voice boomed in rage and suddenly the 4 beings, including Argen and his host, floated.

The forest rumbled and a crater was born. Suddenly, a pair humongous hands appeared and grabbed the four in a clasp. The hands were then enclosed by a space dome and disappeared from the place.
