Overlord: Origin

Chapter 59

"No gonna lie, this is quite problematic." Raizel muttered to himself as he squinted his eyes thoughtfully, staring down at the countless Players below him as they all tried their best to cast their own spells.

Now if someone hears Raizel saying these kinds of stuff with the current tone he's having, they will be very confused for sure. That's because Raizel started this whole situation with such a carefree attitude, making everyone think that he was confident enough to handle everyone here with ease.

An attitude that is very contradicting to the one he's showing right now.

Well, that's because, in reality, he wasn't carefree at all. In fact, throughout this whole time, he's very serious, probably the most serious he's ever been. This was clearly shown when, upon his declaration for the battle to start, he wasted no time as he made the first move and quickly cast the [ Blood Moon ]. The exact skill that made the sky turn dark red all of a sudden.

Now the reason why he made this move as fast as he could, is due to the fact that he was aware that if these countless Players unleashed their spells on him all at once, he'd be in such great danger. There are just too many of them that there's no room or way for him to dodge if that were to happen.

That's right. Raizel is clearly aware that this is too much even for him. That all these Players would surely wipe the floor with his entire existence if he decided to face them head-on. Even though he already unsealed his entire stats, it still doesn't make any difference.

Well, good thing that's not what he planned to do.

Cause originally, Raizel planned to drag this thing out down to the very end. That going out here and exposing himself, just like what he's doing right now, is not what he originally planned at all.

But since a certain annoying existence decided to join the play and ruin everything for him, Raizel had to change plans immediately cause it's pretty evident that sticking to the original plan, wouldn't work now.

That's exactly why he's in the situation he's currently in. Cause what he's about to do now is also part of his new 'plan'. Whatever that may be.

But, even though he already made some pretty solid plan, at least that's what Raizel likes to believe, it doesn't change the fact that he's feeling not so solid about this. Cause all he's doing right now, and what he's about to do, is pretty dangerous. One wrong move on his part, can spell the end of him. That's how tight this whole situation is.

So, given the seriousness of this whole ordeal, upon casting [ Blood Moon ] and making one quick survey of the entire battlefield, he immediately made his move.

Cause as apparent as it is, he doesn't have much time to do whatever he's trying to do.

Literally eight seconds from now, the skill [ Blood Moon ], the reason why everyone here other than Raizel cannot cast any of their spells, will be over. If that moment comes and he hasn't done whatever he's planning to do, he's pretty much f*cked.

Well, Duration isn't really the strongest trait of the [ Blood Moon ] skill in the first place. Raizel used it because it has the largest range among his arsenals of Silencing Skills. Given that, there's no way he can affect all the Players below him with the other ones, even though they have long duration or whatnot.

Also, apart from that duration problem, he also has to worry about the existence of non-spell-based Players. Meaning, those non-spell caster Players that don't rely on spells, but skills. Given that spell is only what [ Blood Moon ] restricted.

In short, Fighter-type Players are still a problem.

That's the reason why Raizel, while zooming across the battlefield, towards his 'destination', is still being bothered by countless Players attacking him with their spears, bows, swords, and many more from all kinds of angles.
