I BECAME A SKULL IN ANOTHER WORLD WITH THE LABYRINTH MASTER'S WORK.

CHAPTER 219: I WILL PAY YOU MORE!

The entire imperial capital that was peaceful every day was now in a huge commotion, most of the houses in this capital were on fire as well as the battle cries of the soldiers continued to echo throughout the battlefield.

As more and more of the guard troops above the capital fell, the movement of the rebel forces also moved forward.

Among the capital's guard troops, a soldier shouted frantically "General, the enemy has started to rise above the city wall, if it continues like this then we must lose, what should we do?".

An old man with a long white beard and about 50 years old stared intently at the rebel forces and shouted "There is nothing we can do but continue to fight the rebels! All of you, today show your loyalty to the emperor! As long as 1 soldier is still standing, then not a single rebel can rush towards the capital, show your loyalty to the emperor and die to defend the capital!".

"Fight!", although the capital's soldiers were being pushed back and suffered heavy losses, they still looked very brave.

Most of them stepped forward to stop these rebels, even though it meant they had to lose their lives.

The general guarding the gates of the capital was a loyal general appointed by the emperor himself, if the emperor did not believe it then this general would definitely not be able to become the leader of the capital's guard force which was an important position in the empire.

The general looked in the direction where Yena and Folk were fighting, after which he shifted his eyesight towards the emperor's palace "Emperor, that day you entrusted me to guard this gate, then today I must be guarding this gate to death! As long as I am alive, no enemy soldiers have passed through the gates of this capital. Emperor, this general of yours is leaving first!".

Without the slightest hesitation, the general stepped forward while drawing his sword, he led the final army of the capital's gatekeepers from the rebels.

This general may only have the power of rank 1, but in terms of courage or loyalty to the emperor then he did not lose to Derka.

The final battle to defend the capital's gates had already begun, while the residents could only hide in their homes in fear. No one dared to leave their homes, however, as long as they were met by the soldiers on the street they would die, so hiding at home was the best option. Not to mention that most of the troops in the war certainly did not attack the homes of the inhabitants, unless the inhabitants were also against them.

...----------------...

Nera and Terphis were currently standing before the emperor, Nera could sense that even though this emperor was very old but an extremely powerful aura could still be felt on his body. Anyone who underestimated the strength of this man because of his age, Nera knew that that person would definitely regret it.

Despite feeling the strong power of this emperor, Nera did not panic at all because Nera's aura was also not weaker. Nera was indeed a level weaker than the emperor, but with the help of the strength of the 3 Master Labyrinth on him then the aura of Nera was not inferior to this emperor.

A confident smile appeared on Nera's face "You ask why we helped the crown prince? As emperor then you must be an intelligent person so as to realize that we are not the soldiers of the crown prince, but rather we are adventurers. Why do you think we adventurers accepted the duties that the crown prince gave us? Isn't the answer obvious, we adventurers only work for money!".

If Nera and Terphis were really adventurers then they might accept it, but they came here for another purpose so Nera shook her head "We adventurers did do the work during getting paid, anyway, but we are not madmen who will side with the enemy just for getting paid more. When we do the job according to who pays the most, then there is no one to hire us".

"you're right, you're really very skilled adventurers, in order for others to be interested in hiring you then you have to be trustworthy, not just work according to who pays you the most", the emperor said in agreement to Nera's words "But on the other hand you are also unlucky, because of the way you work as an adventurer then you have to face me!".

"Shelf!".

Slowly something shocking happened, the clothes worn by the emperor shattered and showed his figure becoming increasingly muscular. As for the emperor's trousers, then it didn't fall apart like his clothes.

The emperor's body continued to be massive to over 5 meters, fortunately the roof of this palace was high enough that the emperor's head did not hit the roof.

Not only had the emperor's body become increasingly larger, its strength had also increased simultaneously. At first the emperor only had the power of a tier 8 god, but now his power had already increased to a tier 7 god.

The emperor who had already turned into a monster sighed in white, the hot temperature could be felt through from the smoke.

After his body changed and became stronger, the emperor again looked towards Nera confidently "How? Do you still refuse to cooperate with me? Will you still work for the crown prince and die under my hands, young adventurer?".

Nera was a little surprised at the sudden change of emperor, not afraid but very surprised that the power of the emperor could increase directly just by using an ability. After all each level on a god had a strength that was far different as well, therefore the power of a tier 7 god could be dozens of times stronger than a tier 8 god.

The infidel who was behind Nera immediately said "Nera, do I have to fight this Emperor?".

"No need!", said Nera who walked forward towards the emperor "With my strength then there is no problem to deal with the emperor, even if his strength increases by 1 level. But if there is a problem, then you can move to help me".

"I see", Terphis said slightly bowing "Then for now I'll watch from the side".

Seeing only Nera stepping forward towards him, a mocking smile appeared on the emperor's face "Young Adventurer, didn't you underestimate me too much? Even if you have 5 though, I can still beat him. But you're trying to fight me here alone? Have you gone crazy? In the end, a tier 9 god is not at all an opponent of a tier 7 god, you better invite your friend to fight me so that you have a chance to win!".

"I see now why you are weaker than Ark or Tersin" said Nera coldly, suddenly her figure had appeared in front of the emperor "Because you underestimated your enemy, without even realizing the slightest bit about who exactly are you fighting this!".
