Gods' Impact Online

"...."

'I really got a blessing?!' Aurora exclaimed.

Aurora opened her menu to check the blessing's benefits, and she couldn't believe her eyes after reading what it said.

1) [Increases AGILITY by 100 times. 

  -Always active.

  -No cooldown.]

2) [Stop the flow of time.

   -Active- 3 seconds.

   -Cooldown- 36 hours.]

3) [Lyda Strike. (each strike deals 100,000 HP DMG)

  -Active - 1 second.

  -Cooldown- 6 hours.]

"I got my Lyda strike skill back and two more new ones. And they look so overpowered…" Aurora muttered under her breath.

She looked around her to see many players, including Misha and Kayden, fighting against the monsters and demons.

'I can use my skills to end everything. But… Aurora looked at the cooldown of her second skill of Lyda's blessing and muttered, "I have to be fast. If I mess it up, I won't have a chance to use this again for the next 36 hours.'

Without wasting her time, Aurora dashed at the monsters. The first benefit of the skill was always active, but it only activated when Aurora wished to. Since there was no cooldown, that made it easier for Aurora to start it.

Now that Aurora's AGILITY had increased by 100x, that made her 100 times faster than before. She could barely keep her balance when running, and she almost tripped a couple of times if it weren't for the torque to keep her on her feet.

Then, Aurora jumped in the air. But because she was running at high speed, she ended up jumping a lot higher than she had expected.

If Aurora fell down or even managed to land on her feet, she would still receive a considerable amount of HP loss. And at a time like this, even 1 HP mattered.

Aurora had no choice but to change her focus from the ground monster to the air monster.

However, she had nothing to do except swing her sword, and the rest was done by speed.

Aurora cleaved all the monsters in the air as he flew higher and forward.

It looked as though Aurora was flying to the players on the ground who were fighting and the NPCs who were hiding.

Aurora's momentum in the air eventually came to half. Now, Aurora needed to land on the ground, but a strange thought suddenly crossed her mind.

'I saw Zach do it once, so maybe I can too?'

Aurora plunged her sword into the nearest monster and jumped on another. She repeated the same process until she reached a big-sized monster that could manage the impact of falling to the ground without injuring her.

There were a lot of monsters and demons in the air. Aurora was chopping them in seconds since Aurora's hand movements were 100 times faster than any normal player with level 20.

Within a few minutes, Aurora had leveled up by two by just killing the monsters in the sky.

'I can't stay here for forever. As long as my feet are not on the ground, I can't use my sword art properly. It's hard to dodge in the air as well.'

Aurora found a perfect-sized monster that could easily survive the impact. She jumped onto the monster and stabbed her sword vertically on its head. 

However, Because of that, the monster started flapping its wings erratically to shake off Aurora. But Aurora took out her old dagger that once belonged to her maid and cleaved the monster's wings.

The monster fell down with a 'splat,' and its body was squished on the ground. However, Aurora still received some fall damage.

'I lost 200 HP, but let's not worry about it.'

"Aurora!" Misha ran over to Aurora with Kayden and the other few players.

"Are you okay?" Misha asked with a concerned look on her face.

"Yeah, I am fine." Aurora nodded and glanced at the players, who looked out of breath.

Looking at them reminded Aurora of her maids, who were in the same situation that day. Yet, she had forced them to continue the dungeon expedition.

Sure, at that time, Aurora didn't take the slime's warning seriously and thought it was a joke. She didn't know that if they died, they would never respawn and die in the real world too.

"Those who are tired should take a rest," she said in a low voice.

"We can still continue…" a player said as he breathed heavily.

"If you force yourself, you will lose your edge, and that will be your end. It's better to take reset and fight back, rather than charging in blind and dying helplessly," Aurora asserted in a solemn voice.

"We… understand…"

A few players retreated to the gazebo while the rest kept fighting.

The mood of the battle had changed once Aurora received Lyda's blessings. 

While the other players struggled to fight against one monster, Aurora was single-handedly killing one monster each second.

No matter how strong the monsters or demons were, none could win against speed and time.

Six hours passed, yet Aurora kept fighting. But the demons from hell had finally stopped coming.

However, that was just the first wave. Many more waves of the demons were about to pass through the portal.

Aurora was only killing the low and mid-level monsters as she didn't have enough courage to fight the high demons or big monsters, especially the five titans who were roaming around the capital and destroying all the buildings under their feet.

Aurora had been using the first benefit of Lyda's skill since the start, but she wasn't feeling exhausted at all.

Aurora assumed it was the effect of the skill, but she was mistaken. 

The moment Aurora deactivated the skill to use the other one, she fell to her knees.

"Huh?" Aurora looked at her body with a confused look on her face. She couldn't understand what was happening.

*ROAR*

She heard a roar of a monster approaching her, but her vision got blurry, and she couldn't see anything clearly.

Still, she held her sword tight and swung it, hoping it would hit the monster. But she was aiming at the wrong size.

'What's happening to me? I was fine…' She gasped in realization and muttered, "So the side-effects and exhaustion didn't come off until I deactivated the skill…?"

Without wasting her time, Aurora activated the skill again. Her vision got clear, and she regained her strength to continue fighting.

[Leveled up!]

[Congratulations! You have reached level 31!]
